#92 Street Without Sky (Watercolor Cityscape Tutorial)

Sorry but today we have a really long video. Looks like a free video lesson :)
I hope you forgive me for taking half an hour. So, today I can call our exercise "sketch without the sky." I want to say that you don’t always have to include the sky in your sketches and they will still look finished. Why? I'll tell you now.
European Street. 15 x 11 inches ‪@DANIELSMITHArtistColor‬ on Arches Rough 300 gsm.
The painting made during this video is available for purchase. Contact me through my website for further details: michaelsolovyev.net

Great capture fantastic but we really do not need D.Smith to do fantastic watercolour. Just talent and technique. Yes good equipment is great but the former is harder to come by.

[@charlesz8531]

I like how you create the translucent effect on the umbrellas and the reflective shine on the corner of the roof. The fact that you only use a couple of brushes as well as mix colors on the go is liberating. Thanks!

Thank you!

this looks effortless. Is this as easy as it looks? Brilliant result.

Thank you Henry!! It is easy if... you will thinking about just one object on your painting - light. Only light :) It's easy to paint just one object, right? )))

I loved watching you paint! I'm new on your subscribe list. You showed a lightweight travel brush that I can not find in your on line store. I'm interested in that!

Thank you Sherry! That was a prototype, it should be available шт the and of month. Thank you for asking!!

Ciao Michael, non fai altro che sbigottirci. Oltre che maestro della luce, tu conosca molto bene l’anatomia del corpo umano. Ho osservato l’uomo in panchina che guarda il telefono, la posizione delle gambe e dei piedi e la forma delle ginocchia sono così veri. Oppure la ragazza con la bottiglietta d’acqua in mano che guarda alla sua sinistra, il movimento delle gambe è così naturale, oppure la donna con i tre bassotti, oppure il ragazzo con la tracolla che parla al telefono in quella piazzetta con i due ombrelloni. Ce ne sarebbero di esempi. Riesci a dare sempre un’espressione ai volti o descrivere i movimenti delle persone con una semplicità disarmante. Difficile pensare di emularti, anche guardando i tuoi video per anni.

[@watercoloronlinemsolovyev]

Ciao, come sempre, i tuoi commenti sono così poetici e belli! Mi scaldano il cuore! Grazie mille!

[@marylabrec2728]

Can you please tell me what brush you are using? Also, what is the Daniel Smith paint color you mentioned with 3 pigments? Thank you, I am a new subscriber😊

[@watercoloronlinemsolovyev]

Sure! Thank you for asking. These my brushes :www.watercoloronline.com/watercolorbrushes
About DS color I mean Moonglow. That paint mixed from three pigments... I just love it!!

[@graphegraph8385]

sai Michael, quando mi metto al computer e apro youtube, dei molti video in elenco che appaiono riconosco immediatamente il tuo stile prima ancora di leggere il tuo nome. È come ascoltare Mozart nella sua briosità e freschezza, e riconoscerlo immediatamente tra tanti perchè inconfondibile.

[@watercoloronlinemsolovyev]

Grazie mille! Deeply flattered by that comparison.

Did you say at the beginning it was Moonglow and Quin Deep Gold? Or Quin Sienna?

sto usando un traduttore simultaneo col cellulare per leggere i sottotitoli, ma la traduzione è ridicola. Mi accontento di vedere l'evoluzione dell'opera, sempre molto affascinante e mai statica

Try CZcams translation. The way to do it is the following:
1. Click on "CC" button in the bottom right corner of the video. Make sure the red line appears under it.
2. Now, click on the Settings button (the cog-shaped button to the right of the "CC" button)
3. Click on "Subtitles/CC" button in the list that will open.

@@watercoloronlinemsolovyev grazie dell'informazione! Ho attivato la traduzione in italiano dei sottotitoli, che però non è molto fedele all'originale.
