    Here's how to paint a banana with watercolor. We're going to use underpainting to add depth and realism to this watercolor painting. Underpainting is a useful painting technique that allows you to paint your shadows first.

    I watched a video earlier today by Emma Jane Lefebvre (watercolour). She was experimenting with this underpainting technique and bigging you up and sending people out to hunt you down. I commented on her results at the time, comparing a painted pumpkin with and without the use of underpainting and my personal conclusion was that the underpainted version looked far more organic and realistic. I think your examples of the banana have only strengthened my conviction regarding this. What a brilliant technique this is and, also, learning more and understanding this technique has surely got to be a valuable addition to one's watercolour painting armoury. Thank you.

    I think both bananas look great, but the colors on the right banana with the undertone look more rich and maybe even more realistic because of that. Thank you for the tip!

  • @mccorade5941
    @mccorade5941 Před 8 měsíci +1

    The shadows and textures were a lot clearer on the under painted banana, but ended up rather muddy when you added them after the fact on the left banana. So there definitely seems to be a use for underpainting.

  • @phillange166
    @phillange166 Před 8 měsíci +1

    Your videos are well-scripted and fascinating. It would help us a lot if you tell us when you let the paint dry before applying the next layer. For ex., in your most excellent blue apple painting (!), when you applied yellow, I thought 'Ooops, it'll turn green' because all of my blues and yellows make green. I could only wonder if you let it dry, or if you had a specific brand and hues that allowed this. Whether applied wet or dry is crucial info.

    Do you use a different color depending on what’s going on top? Like if I was doing a green leaf, I would use red because it’s the opposite and if I was doing an orange flower I would use blue?

    • @dannydrwing
      @dannydrwing  Před 9 měsíci +3

    • @dannydrwing

      Complementary colors can muddy (and often do after more research) so it kind of depends. Cool is probably best to mimic more atmospheric lighting
