Reflections using watercolour pencils
couldn’t be simpler. For this little boat I used raw umber, blue-grey
and a touch of black and then repeated the colours underneath. |
Stroke over with a wet brush to make this
into a painting, leaving a few areas dry as just pencil. This is a clever way of producing
hard areas and adding a little bit of depth to the painting.

Notice at this stage that I didn’t wet the
reflection, I simply left this as watercolour pencil drawing. Now with
a tiny touch of ultramarine blue stroking the pencil with my wet brush,
simply stroke through the lot. |
Don't be scared, just stroke straight through your pencil drawing.

If you're quick with your strokes you won't
disturb too much of your under drawing. Therefore leaving a fairly
strong reflection, now what could be simpler than that. |
And there we go, a perfect reflection. |
