How to Add Detail to a Sailboat Aquarelle Pencil Painting

Video Transcript

"We've done our sky and our green hill and our water and now we're going in to do the details on our boat. I'm still using the number 30 brush and I'm still leaving the white of the paper for my sails so I dip my brush in the water and I'm going to start here with my blue from my boat going very carefully. I'm going to do this dark boat here because one's in front of the other and things get darker as they get further further from you, so the boat behind the behind boat should always be darker than anything in the foreground. And I'm going to lift up some of the blue with my brush on this to make sure that it's lighter than the boat behind it, so begin to put our blue for our boats in and I'm going to take this and I'm going to do this little strip here on this sail. And this one over here has a strip too and I think I'll add one on this little boat right here as well, stay tune for next segment when we'll put in our red and do our final details on this."
