Original Watercolours by Tim Wilmot

Live, and Online, 2 hour Watercolor Workshop with Tim Wilmot, Sunday December 15th 2019

I am running another live, online watercolour demonstration on Sunday, December 15th at 6 pm UK time (GMT).  Wherever you are, join me for this unique paint along, where we will paint a pretty Italian Coastal Village Scene (see photo below of Riomaggiore).  This will not be a recording.  It is LIVE!

This online workshop is suitable for painters of any level.  It will be a demonstration in Watercolor.  I will go at a slow pace and describe with commentary what I am doing and the techniques I am using.  The commentary will only be in English, and I will try and speak slowly because I have many attendees where English is not their first language.

All you will need is a good/reliable internet connection, and a headphone or PC speakers to hear my audio commentary (Worldwide Conference call phone numbers will also be provided if you want to connect by phone).  If you want to, you'll be able to ask plenty of questions as I go along.  There is a $7 USD fee to attend this live session.  It will not be uploaded to YouTube or available to anyone apart from the attendees who have paid to watch.  I should be able to send you a link to the recording of the demo afterwards, which only you can see.  

The demo might be an hour to an hour and a half in duration (depends on how many questions/comments I get!).  We will paint at a slow speed and in stages.  So you can paint along with me if you want, or wait until you receive a link to the recording.

Here's a photo from a previous session, with 'attendee' Jack Cwiek showing his setup, following me as I paint!

And this is what it could look like on your screen..

You need to register to attend (please do this as soon as possible and not on the day) and I will then send you a payment request from me for your $7 USD fee.  You will then be sent an email with the simple connection instructions for attending the demo...

Registration will close a week before the event. 

We will be painting this scene - the pretty Italian coastal village of Riomaggiore.  Riomaggiore is a village and comune in the province of La Spezia, situated in a small valley in the Liguria region of Italy. It is the first of the Cinque Terre one meets when travelling north from La Spezia.  Oh, and we will also include some figures!:

Bridge over the River Ebra, Tortosa, Spain

Tortosa, Spain, Watercolour, 15" x 11"

The iron arched bridge over the river Ebra.  Quote tricky to do these multi-span bridges with the complexity of all the metalwork.  It ended up being one of the simplest elements of the whole painting and a small bit of white paint on the arches hopefully gives the impression of the structure's curve.

Painted on Saunders Waterford, Cold Press, 300 gms.

Steps- Iron Acton Village

Iron Acton, UK, 15" x 11"

I took a few photos very quickly of a local village to me in the UK, Iron Acton, and this was an outcome of one of those photos.  I liked the steps, a little light hitting the tops and the old stone wall.  The shadows were going in the right direction as well.

Eschif Perigueux

Perigueux, France, Watercolour, 15" x 11"

An unusual building overlooking the River L'Isle in Perigueux, France.  An old mill, or medieval watch tower, with lovely timber clad outer walls, and very well preserved.  The scene is a sort of slipway running up from the river to the main road and the centre of the city.  I thought a figure half in the shadows worked quite well in the composition.

Latest YouTube video - How to Paint White Buildings

Just in case you missed it, here is my latest full-length watercolour tutorial video up on my YouTube Channel, and this time, how to paint white buildings - no we don't get out the white paint with watercolour!  We use the white or the lightness of the paper and paint very transparently over it or around the white object.  Hope you like it.  Subscribe to my Patreon Channel if you want to participate in future painting projects and get a critique from me!

As always, this painting painted on Saunders Waterford, Cold Press paper and 300 gms weight.

 

Plaza Espana Ronda

Ronda, Spain, 15" x 11"

From Plaza Espana in Ronda, looking over toward the other side of town over the El Tajo Gorge.  Another painting I videoed but no commentary added as yet.  So I may post one day.  I think this one works with all the connection of the two foreground figures to the middle ground and the background, plus some loose watercolor techniques.

Boat Yard, Camikebir, Kusadasi, Turkey

Kusadisi, Turkey, 15" x 11"

Quite a complex scene to paint this one.  A busy boatyard with some challenges to get the composition right and so many things going on as regards materials, ropes, objects, different boats and so on.  Anyway, thought the framing left and right helped, maybe the red boat in the middle is a little too large.

Saint-Martin-de-Gurson, France

Saint Martin de Gurson, France, Watercolour, 15" x 11"

A pretty village in SW France.  Now I did a video of this one, but no commentary added to it as yet.  Worth publishing?  It did end up being quite blue for some reason.  Maybe I was trying to use up the cobalt.  But it sort of works with a little warmth from the left hand wall.

Demo painting Cornwall - small bay with boats

Cornwall, Watercolour, 15" x 11"

A demo painting on a workshop from earlier in the year.  Loved this scene from a point of view of the white cottage on the far side of the little bay and all those boats with their repeating patterns.  I struggled to get a figure in though.  Might have been too much.
