Welcome to our studio in the Highlands of Scotland from where we bring you this first box-set of The Elphen Tutorials - in which Paul demonstrates the charming technique of Line & Wash in Watercolours, with which to share some insights into how to paint Webstrand and some of her tooth-gathering artefacts.
Box-set : Eight Videos : Running Time 6hours 49minutes
"Close-up filming enables me to demonstrate exactly how the techniques are applied and behave on the surface. You will see how to mix the colours on your palette, how to exploit your brush-strokes, how to make masking fluid work for you, how to draw out and ink in, how to achieve transparency through controlling your paint mixes and exploiting lift-off and losing edges. The list of hints, tips and techniques that you will pick up from working-along in painting Webstrand, the Tooth Gatherer will prove invaluable and can be applied to any subject."
“These comprehensive tutorials follow the same principles that we apply to all of our painting tutorials – they are detailed, work-along tutorials; filmed in real-time, with nothing left out."
"In addition to the standing portrait of Webstrand, the Tooth Gatherer, this box-set of eight videos shows you:-
-
HOW TO PAINT Webstrand’s wings when fully open
-
HOW TO PAINT the Tooth Gatherer’s Pouch
-
HOW TO PAINT Webstrand’s elegant hands on which she wears her Elphen Eye-Ring
-
HOW TO PAINT the Rememble & Forgettle Dust Shakers that protect all Elphen secrets
We look forward to your company on this magical painting journey and as always, this comes with best wishes for your painting, from Eileen and myself.”
