Abacela View Part 1 Watercolor Painting Demo


Welcome to the June 2010 Lesson on Create38!
This month’s painting is a landscape of a vineyard scene. I’ve called the painting Abacela View. In the painting I use a limited palette and I’ve broken the process into manageable steps for you. In addition to the painting, I’m focusing on how to paint an underlying wash. I hope you enjoy this lesson! You can find the supply list and instructions in the workbook.

  3. Vinita, I really love this painting, i have wanted to paint a vineyard that’s close to my sons house in Eastern washington, but really didn’t know how to go about it. I loved this cuz it showed me how to begin. I’m so thankful to have found your website and joined you. Do we have access to your past lessons? i would really love to have the packet on this one.
    I found out last week i have breast cancer so i will be spending more time painting i really love it and it takes my mind away. We live in Japan right now (Yokosuka Navy base) but will be back for treatments at Swedish Cancer Institute. i’m planning to be in the area for at least 6mos. Yes i’m bring my paints and computer. I’m excited to be close to where i can get materials too! Thanks again for all you do. Chris
