Intuitive Painting: Creating Abstracts with E-Sumi Ink Watercolors
Duration: 47m | .MP4 1280x720, 30 fps(r) | AAC, 48000 Hz, 2ch | 504 MB
Genre: eLearning | Language: English

In this class, we are going to play and experiment with Boku-Undo E-Sumi Watercolor. These paints are dark & moody. They are ink-based and thin down beautifully. The only thing I wish on these paints is that they came in more than 6 colors!! 
We are going to create a set of 4 paintings, starting out with them all taped together and painting on them as if they are 1 big sheet.  Then we will peel the tape and evaluate how successful each piece turned out and what additional items are needed to finish out our pieces. Whether that be extra paint, marks, or other materials that inspire you. 
I truly enjoy these intuitive sessions. We get to play and experiment. Letting go of expectations and just having some fun. These times are what allow you to grow as an artist and have fun creating in unexpected ways. 
This class is for you if:
You love learning new techniques for your art
You are interested in experimenting and creating in a more intuitive way. Letting go of expectations and exploring your materials.
You love watching how others approach their art practice
Supplies: 
These are the supplies I'll be using in class today. Feel free to substitute and play with any materials you have on hand.
Canson xl cold press 140lb watercolor paper
Boku-Undo E-Sumi Watercolor (you are welcome to use any watercolor you have on hand to do your projects with - this one is just a cool collection I wanted to introduce you to if  you hadn't seen them yet
Artist tape
Kuretake Manga Pen white - this is a cool pen that came in my monthly art box and I really loved it. You can use a white Posca pen as an alternative.
Watersoluble graphite pencil - I used this for mark-making. You can substitute lots of things for this.
Variety of brushes - I  liked having a smaller mop brush, a 1" wash brush, and a stiff fan brush to experiment with.
