Learn to paint a mushroom in this art class preview with artist Lene Myhre (@lenemyhreart). She’ll show you how to create texture and depth by using watercolour and coloured pencils. You’ll see how she gets white without using white paint.
Topics Covered:
- Using wet-on-dry for light washes
- Dropping in more colour for deeper values
- Outlining contour with watercolour
- Using coloured pencils for finishing details
Here is the reference image and outline sketch if you want to woak along with Lene.
