This is a really simple watercolour landscape for beginners. I only really used two colours (paynes grey and burnt umber). This painting is done on a small scale which is a good way to start as a beginner. It is A5 size and done on Arches, 300gsm, medium, cold pressed paper. The hardest part is probably the wet in wet sky at the beginning but really you can't go wrong by putting it down and then leaving it alone. You can tell when I was painting this that I was still not really sure if the sky was working or not but it turned out fine. Sometimes you just have to trust that it will and leave it. You could use any other grey (I actually prefer the mix of cobalt blue and light red as for me it has more life in it and it also separates and I like that this gives the clouds almost like an aurora around them!).
To wet the page I started with the round sable but that is really too small for my liking and so I changed to the 1 inch hake brush and then to the two inch hake brush to wet the page. So much easier with a larger brush. I then painted in the sky with the pure kolinsky round sable and then used the 1 inch hake brush with just gives wider strokes which I wanted. I then used the round sable for the foreground, the old fan brush for the trees, the round sable again for the distant mountains and the flay nylon brush for lifting out the water line. I then used the razor and ruler to scratch back into the paper.
Paper: Arches 300gsm medium cold pressed
Paint: Paynes grey and burnt umber (winsor and newton artist qualtiy) a tiny bit of yellow ochre but you don't need to do this
Brushes: Round sable, 1 inch hake brush, 2 inch hake brush, old fan brush, flat nylon, ruler, razor, 3M magic tape and as per usual many tissues!
Thanks for watching, happy painting!

Rives BFK etching paper. Probably best to source this from your local store so you can look after the paper and not have it posted unless you are buying a large amount of paper and it will be looked after. There is nothing worse than getting hundreds of sheets all with a indent in them. Having said that you can actually source this paper from amazon:

Some people have been extremely happy with the state of the paper when it arrived (and some not!)
I love this paper it is soft and lights are lifted easily from it.

I live both of these colours and together they remind me of the Hartz range near Alice Springs. The earth colour is perfect. Can’t wait to have a go.

Hi Lia! Thanks for following me on Patreon! There is a pic of the weird fan brush on the private Facebook group I sent you the link to. You can hack up a fan brush so it can make interesting marks! 👍👍
This is wonderful, thanks so much. Great tutorial - I'll be giving this a go very soon!
Hi Mandy! Glad you liked it! 👍👍
Thanks Scott I’m new to this medium and enjoy your simple explanations and fantastic work.
Hi Kerry! Really glad you have found me if you are new to watercolour! It can be a difficult and frustrating medium if you don't understand it and it is always my aim to help people understand it! Good luck!
Dabbing tissue is a good technique I learnt today.
Hi Ashim! Yes I use a lot of tissues all the time! 👍👍
Just wonderful! Thank you.

Your art is fantastic..

Hi! I love so much your style! Thank you for this very interesting demo. As a true beginner, I found it difficult when I tried. It seems very easy...
Hi Pamela! Yes I think many things are not easy in watercolour at the beginning. I think understanding the medium is important! Really important. Happy painting! Some of my early videos are good to watch if you are just beginning. Have a look! 👍🙏

I love it
Thanks M Giselli! 🙏
Just found you! This is beautiful, thanks for sharing!
Hi Sheridan! Thanks! Yes it is lovely! Simple but really appealing! cheers Scott
so gorgeous - my biggest mistake is too much at once - really considering your courses despite being pretty ok in watercolour
Love it! Could you please tell me what paper you use, what is that tape you use that does not tear off the paper, and what kind of blade do you useTo scrape away color? I would really appreciate your answers!! Love all your work!
Hi 55luv! It should all be in the description. I use Rives bfk etching paper most of the time. 280 gsm white. I use 3M removable tape (blue box) snd a Stanley razor.
Amazing
Thanks Begona! 🙏😄
Beautifully simple and effective Scott. The sky depends on how much water is on the page and how thick the paint is - a delicate balance. Mine are often disappointing. Do you have an idea where you want the clouds to be?
Hi Barbara, yes when I’m painting most of the time I have a rough idea of where I want the clouds to be. Generally clouds are more saturated at the top of the page and lighter at the bottom as they recede into the distance and become closer together unless it’s a sunrise or sunset which of course is brighter on the horizon! 👍👍
I really enjoy your tutorials - since I am a beginner watercolorist, I find your style of teaching is unintimidating and quite beautiful in a simplistic way. I've discovered that the more I work at my painting the worse it becomes! I like the looseness you give to your paintings. What kind of brush did you use for the trees? Keep the paintings coming - Thank you!
Hi Marilyn! Yes watercolour can easily turn to mud! That's why it is good to use a limited palette or even just use one colour at times! The brush was an old hacked up fan brush. It makes interesting marks. you can make one with a pair of scissors. Cheers Scott
Also what brand of watercolors do you use and recommend? You are a wonderful painter!
Winsor and Newton artist quality tubes.
🤩🤩🤩🙏
Thanks Agnes!
Thank you Scott, that's so beautiful in all its simplicity. What Aussie Bush colours do you use?
Hi Peggy! It is lovely and simple I agree! Paintings don't need to be complicated it is often easy to forget that I find for me! In terms of Aussie Bush colours I'm not the best at mixing those! I often use the earth colours mixed with blues to get something akin to the aussie bush such as cobalt blue and raw umber or french ultra and burnt umber. Cheers Scott
🙏🌊🔱 thank you
No worries Socrates! 👍👍👍
You say that you’re using Burnt Umber. It looks more like Burnt Sienna though? Can you please confirm?
Hi Cindy, it is definitely burnt umber by winsor snd Newton. Promise! 👍
Daniel smith burnt umber , raw umber ,raw sienna are totally different to Windsor and Newton
Thanks Chris! I need to try out Daniel smith watercolours! 👍
