Watercolor painting is popular because the materials are simple and cleaning up is easy, but it can be challenging because the artist must plan ahead. The key to making a good watercolor is to anticipate where the white areas will be because once painted, the color cannot be removed. The artist leaves the white paper as the highlights and layers more in the darker areas. Using a simple, inexpensive watercolor kit and a piece of watercolor paper (heavy textured paper), paint a pumpkin following the video tutorial below and then answer the questions about your completed assignment. You will not receive credit for this portion of the assignment if you do not embed pictures of your process. You are not being graded on “how good it is”. Your grade is based on your effort and following the video tutorial.

  1. Watch the tutorial and follow the instructions to create your painting.
  2. Write your name and class reference number directly onto your page (Must be handwritten).
  3. Take pictures and scan and/or attach them to your submission.
    • Take a picture of your initial sketch.
    • Take a picture in the middle of the process.

  4. Respond to the following:
    1. What do you notice when you paint over a section that was previously painted?
    2. What happens when you moisten the paper, then paint?
    3. Were you happy with the final result? Why? Why not?
