Are You Making This Painting Mistake? Avoid This and Paint Like a Pro

I’d like to address ONE of the most common things I see as a teacher and how it can be improved quickly. If you are aware of this you can more easily do something to change it and therefore move forward with confidence.
Often times dark and light areas can look lifeless, boring or flat. This is something that happens a lot for beginner artists and also intermediate painters. To avoid this and make your paintings look more professional and have more depth you firstly have to be aware and know what to look for.
Whether you paint realistically or abstractly, this can really be a real game-changer. Especially if you are looking to paint larger work. A large dark or light area really needs some variation of color, tone or texture to carry itself.
Yes I’m aware that there can be exceptions - I don’t like absolutes in art - I don’t like to say never do this or always to that.
In general try looking at your light and dark areas and see if you can breathe in a bit more life to them. I think you’ll see a big difference in your work.

Merci d'avoir partagé l'une de vos premières peintures et le courage de nous en dévoiler les défauts avec toute l'humilité que l'on vous connais. J'ai eu moi même un chat noir que j'ai appelé " reglisse" il me suivait à la plage et attendait bien sagement absorbé par le flux et reflux des vagues. 😂

Hi Marie Louise. So cool to see one of your earlier paintings. This video is perfect for me because that's just about where I'm at right now. What to do with the dark areas. I keep learning from you. Thanks. You're the best 👌 👍

Hi Marie Louise. I was wondering when the "closed" courses will be open again? Thanks.

Thank you for this share! The end of your video is so beautiful and touching, it brought tears to my eyes. How does your kitty not wander off into the sunset I wonder?

Wondering about your water and paint ratios to get the watercolor effects....? Is that something you could share with us?

Thank you for these videos , they are so useful. - on your webpage it says online courses not available in UK due to brexit. - is this still the case ?

[@TheDanishPainter]

Hi James, yes unfortunately Brexit made it so hard on small businesses. Sorry 😔

[@Jimbombi]

That’s such a shame . 😢
