Black Watercolor Swan 🖤 Step-by-Step Painting Tutorial with Winsor & Newton

#watercolortutorial #winsorandnewton #blackwatercolor In this video, I am going to show you how to paint a realistic black swan with watercolors. We will cover: 1. How to create a sense of realism on paper, when using black watercolor pigment. How to avoid “flat“ looking black - even when you are using black pigment straight from the tube. 2. How to simplify and abstract the feather shapes. How to use variation in brush stroke thickness, direction and length to create a realistic effect. 3. Using black watercolor pigments: Pros and Cons. Why mixing your blacks from other pigments that reveal cool or warm colors creates more realism in your work. I will also explain the reason why I am using black straight from the tube here (for the first time in years). 💝 NORMAL SPEED AD-FREE VERSION OF THIS VIDEO ON PATREON: I have full length real-time version of this tutorial, along with a line drawing, on my Patreon: 🎨 MY R
