Hey there, Liron here! I know many are worried when it comes to flow and watercolor.
This is especially present with larger paintings.
Today I'll debunk that worry and hopefully help someone out there to paint more like THEY WANT.
Enjoy!

You look good Liron. It is encouraging to see a brother doing well.
Thank you 😁🙏🏼
I'm a long time designer/illustrator (16 years as a visual information specialist) that recently took up watercolor painting. In the past I have only used watercolor for flat illustration fills due to losing paintings in a sea of mud. Finding your channel a few weeks ago has been a godsend.
I live out in the forest 27 miles from town. Armed with the knowledge of how to capture impressions of grand scenes without losing control of my medium I hike out to the cliff and paint every morning at sunrise.
Thank you, Liron. Your emphasis on the fundamental understanding of the medium has been invaluable.
So happy I could help like that! 😊🙏🏼 It’s very common to use watercolor this way among illustrators, designers and even architects. But I’m happy you’re finding your way, because there’s an infinite amount of ways to paint 😊🎨
I just finished my largest painting. The sky in one wash was super fun but also an experiment since I wasn’t sure how it would turn out. I used a large house paint brush. lol might be brave and post a video of it. Thank you for sharing your insights. Rules help to get a person started but then experience elevates a person’s art to the next level. Break some rules. lol ❤
Awesome, so happy you went for it!
I used a similar brush for this one, in the earlier sky & bridge stages 😂😁
Looking forward to seeing this ENORMOUS painting! You have amazing talent.
Thank you Barbara 😊🙏🏼🙏🏼 Can’t wait to share the complete result!
Now this is really interesting! I’ve often wondered why I do not see more watercolor paintings in such a large format. Yours is the second I’ve seen in well over ten or fifteen years. I cannot remember the exact dimensions, but I watched a video of a man who was painting what I took to believe was the New York skyline. His watercolor paper came in a large roll (about three or four feet high) and it had to be at least ten feet long. The paper was rolled up at both ends. As he progressed from right to left he would let the paint dry before rolling up the right side and unrolling the left. I never saw the finished product, but what I did see I must admit was very good. I could not afford the paper much less the final framing. I also really liked your sketch of Florence. Great job. Hopefully, it will get people to paint larger works.
Thank you! The way he worked on it makes sense to me (: At the end of the day the paper is just a material!
And people forget it’s made of cotton and can be manipulated a bit 😁 I’m selfishly happy to hear not many paint large. Gives me more potential market share 😛
Great video! Thanks again for sharing the process. I stress way too much about getting things just right, being way too much of a perfectionist.😅
Thanks for the video, Liron - it was interesting seeing how you approach a painting on such a large scale. I doubt I'll ever try something quite that size - mostly for fear that, if I bought a piece of Arches paper that big, my wife would kill me, then divorce me, then kill me again 🙂 However, I think what you suggest could still be used when I try something something that would still seem intimidatingly large to me (say 16" x 20"). Thanks for sharing the tips with us all and stay safe. Best wishes, Brian.
Haha 😂 It is indeed a huge piece of paper! Yes - could definitely be applied to the medium-large sizes too.
After painting this thing, everything else feels like painting on a single square of a toilet paper roll 🤣
It's so dry where I live this time of year, and with the high altitude, my painting dries way too quick for this kind of thing. I have to paint so fast or its all hard edges. Thinking of running a humidifier in the room where I paint so I have some working time because it is very stressful and I don't have time to think or mix colors.
Humidifier could work, but I also think you can further narrow down the area you work on (:
And perhaps more importantly - start every shape with very wet paint, and use wet in wet to push it to be darker. It'll give you more time.
Hope that helps!
I recently took a short course on painting light from Katarzyna Kmiecik. She uses a spray bottle with fine mist to keep her paper in the sweet spot. I've never seen anyone work as clean as her while simultaneously using so much water. Perhaps with practice this method could work. Small upside to your predicament is you are going to advance much faster than the rest of us when it comes to controlling water 😁
Wonderful great artwork dear friends ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤ I am your New member 💕❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️☺️❤❤❤❤❤
Excellent! I was wondering about edges and connections.
You are so gifted❤
Great advice Liron. Looks amazing!
Thank you Laura, much appreciated 😊❤️🙏🏼
Fantastico ! Come sempre!
Thanks
Huge thanks for your support 😊🙏🏼🙏🏼
It looks awesome, Liron👌🏻.. but one question, how do you flatten the paper afterwards.. I just finished a half sheet painting , and it is buckled in places.. I tried ironing & leaving it under some heavy books, but some buckles are there.. now I have dampened the paper behind & kept it under heavy books.. hope it works this time 😅
Usually I’m left with only some minor “waving” (:
I let it dry naturally between layers and after I’m done. And only using a hair drier after it’s 80% done on its own.
Not sure if it’s the type of paper or other factors. Maybe not taping it helps to let it “wave” as it pleases, without forcing it to stay put? Sorry I don’t have a great answer 😅
What to do with the fact that now everything can be drawn by AI?
But it is still obvious that it is an AI generated image. AI can never capture human expression because it's cold. AI depends on datasets of art that was taken without artists permissions.
Also art is human exclusive. AI generates images not art there is a distinction.
@@SeekAndYeShallFindGod the lesser of ppl could define the subtle differences... Masses are so easy going...
But anyway thanks for your message 🤠
@@corallall Yes, it's an unfortunate thing when I see people posting ai
images on art groups claiming it as art that they made. And then people leaving Comments about how awesome this art is and they have no clue it was made by AI. Im that guy that would leave a comment saying it is AI and not real art lol. Cheers
Forget about it. Just draw a lot of things you want :)
