How to Paint Details with a Watercolor Glaze: Part Three

Video Transcript

"Hi, I'm Sue Rose with Expert Village and today we're talking about transparencies in watercolors. We are on the final step of adding our details to our fish. So let's begin with using some nice sap green to highlight and to add some of these details. I'm going to start by adding some details here in the back so I can see the fins on my fish. I'll add some fins down here like this, some here and some up here to the mouth of the fish and I'm going to make a little eye on my fish here. Then you know there some, little up here on the fish but I don't want too many hard lines so I'm going to go in and I'm going to kind of smooth this out a little here. Have more of these come up like this and let's make a little smoother here as well on my fish. It's beginning to look a lot better and so now we're going to need to go right in here and add a little color here for the fish's eyes. And maybe we'll put a little bit of this color in here and here on my fish and maybe we'll have a little color in here just to add some character to this fish. Now I kind of like that yellow let's add a little more to it, add more here, it's beginning to look better. Stay tuned again because I think at this point we need to darken the background so that the fish will really show up."
