In this step-by-step watercolor lesson, I’ll show you how to take a simple pumpkin still life and turn it into a strong, interesting painting. We’ll focus on shape, values, light and shadow, color, edges, and creating a focal point while keeping the painting fresh and painterly.

This is a great lesson for both beginner and intermediate watercolor painters. You can paint along with me step-by-step, or simply watch and learn how I make decisions throughout the painting process.

In this lesson, you'll learn:

• How to simplify a still-life reference
• How to establish the important value patterns
• How to paint the round form of a pumpkin using light and shadow
• How to create interesting hard and soft edges
• How to use color without overworking the painting
• How to create a strong focal point
• How to bring the entire still life together into a finished watercolor

Remember, you don't have to copy my painting exactly. The goal is to learn how to make good painting decisions and develop your own watercolor skills.

Grab your watercolor paints and paper and paint along with me!
