Make Your Watercolours Come Alive. Autumn In Antwerp

Join me as I paint a beautiful autumn street scene from Antwerp, focusing on loose, expressive watercolour techniques that bring light, atmosphere and confidence to your work. In this tutorial, I’ll show you how to simplify a busy city scene into a calm, paintable composition, choose warm harmonious colours, and let the watercolour do the work for you. This is all about creating mood rather than getting caught up in detail. If you want your watercolours to feel more confident, loose and full of light, this one will really help. You can follow along using the outline drawing available on my website, along with the finished painting and other original artworks. 🎨 Materials All the materials I use – brushes, paints and paper – are from Jackson’s Art.
