In this video I'm experimenting with a limited palette and using wax resist and cling film/plastic food wrap to try to create the texture of mountains. The wax resist didn't have much effect, but the cling wrap worked beautifully! Give it a try, you may be surprised at your results!
Materials: Saunders Waterford cold pressed NOT paper, 11" x 15"/28cm x 38cm, paynes grey, sepia, lamp black, some raw and burnt sienna may have already been on the messy palette, but not important. I tried drawing onto the paper with a candle for wax resist, but this didn't really show in the final result. I used various brushes including hakes, flats, riggers, calligraphy brushes, and some plastic cling film/food wrap. - Zábava
It kooks great with the clingfilm texture and minimal colour palette
For me you are the best on CZcams for soft and wet watercoloring style.
It looks like an Himalayan dream
Greetings from France 🇫🇷
Thanks so much, you are so kind! 😊
I wanna cry. This is so beautiful. One thing: the sound of the wind in the video gave me a crazy unrealistic vibe. I'll use your technique, thank you from Brazil!
When you pulled off the plastic, the painting made me think of The Great Wave. The effects are interesting and I will try to see if I can create foamy waves with it.
Your work and techniques are inspirational as always. Your teaching style is a joy to follow and I’m happy with the end results of my pieces when I paint with you. Thank you so much for sharing your creative process with the world ♥️✨
Love this moody painting and the effects from the cling wrap
Waou. It’s absolutely wonderfull. The plastic film technics is very interresting. Thanks a lot to continue to inspire me. You have the talent of your art.👏👏👏
That was a lovely painting it look like I was peering down at a semi active volcano great
Thanks so much Stan, I can see that too now you’ve said it! ⛰😊
The outcome is quite sophisticated and has elevated my idea of what can be done with cling wrap. I really appreciate your narration.
Thanks Margaret, mine too, it surprised me, I will be experimenting a bit more now!
I am amazed at the effects which the cling film made. I just would never have thought about using it ! Thank you for this.
I had reasonably good results using the Horadam supergranulating paint; it really goes very well with the cling film technique.
A mesmerising tutorial for a beginner of watercolour painting. Watching the mountains appear was like magic and the use of the cling film added such a natural texture to the rock. Thankyou and I very much look forward to more!
Thanks so much, the magic of watercolour is what drew me to the medium!
Very nice monochromatic! -Messy Mendy 👍❤️🙏🏻
Absolutely stunning
This is so exquisite. I love the experimentation and yet it all looks so well planned. The icy texture is incredible.
Thanks so much, it came together unexpectedly well! The magic of watercolour
I love using candle wax as well as ink. Thank you for this demo. London
Hello Loïs, wouah I like that painting so much ! Today it's snowing ...I am trying to paint it 🤞thanks from France
Thank you so much for this. I've given it a go and absolutely love the result!
It’s quite a neat hack that you shared I’m gonna have to give that a go.
I had a go today and made it a night time as sky was very dark. No where near as good as yours Lois - but I would be a bit lost without your tuition on here. Thank you - my mental health is much improved by your guiding hand and gentle voice! ❤
My first acrylic effort didn't go well. Most of the tubes of paint I had inherited were dry and hard (old), so I'm now the proud owner of an unfinished 'masterpiece' haha. But this lovely tutorial has re-inspired me to return to watercolours which I love. Thanks again Lois.
Glad to hear that Michael and happy painting! 😊
Wow - I love this semi abstract style! The misty quality of the mountains in the background is stunning. Will definitely be giving these techniques a try - thank you so much for sharing. 🦋🌺🌿💗
Wow!!!! Is beautiful!
Just WOW!
Thanks for sharing beautiful techniques. You are not only a wonderful painter but a great teacher also. Regards
Wow! I tried cling wrap a couple weeks ago and made what looks like glaciers, I know it still needs darker areas. Your video not only showed me how to put darks in but I’m super excited to attempt more abstracts. Thank you!
Love the effects you got from the cling film and how you brought them out even more! 💕
Absolutely stunning!

Very effective, but totally unpredictable results, in this kind of experiment. But you shaded the right areas perfectly to create an awesome painting.
Stunning. It was amazing to watch these mountains come to life.

Thanks so much for your lovely comment! 💐😊
That's fab', it looks like an Icelandic landscape, thanks very much.x
Fabulous!
It’s beautiful
Amazing result, and very interesting explanations ! Thank you !
Thank you! 💕
Extremely beautiful and a happy surprise after removal of film. Will definitely try and also try some table salt
I saw a painting the other day that had trees in the background they were all filled of water blooms when you did the sprinkle of water I realize that’s probably what they did to get the effect
I find this painting so exciting I must try!
Thanks 😊💐
This is great, Lois.
Love it. I use this teqnique sometimes and love it. Love your style 💙
This is lovely! I'm so glad I found it! It reminds me of the high Sierra in California, where there is a lot of exposed rock and snow, I may try this technique for a river painting I've been trying to figure out how to tackle.
Thanks for a lovely painting💕
Thanks, you are welcome!
Very effective. Great combination of hard and soft edges.
Thanks Robert, I’m beginning to realise that a combination of the two is equally as important as contrasts! 🌊😊
