“Water is the gaze of the soul, reflected in motion.”
— Gaston Bachelard
In this lesson, we will explore how to paint a human figure in water using watercolor.
This is not only an interesting subject from a technical point of view — for me, painting a figure in water is a kind of meditation.
By imagining ourselves immersed in clear, transparent water, we can begin to hear the call of our soul, our true desires and dreams. ✨

Human figure in water is a complex and unusual subject, and I decided to show you all the stages from pencil drawing to the final touches.
The image of water is my passion. I want to share with you the experience of many years

Above, I have indicated the materials that I recommend and use constantly myself. But your materials may differ and that’s okay!
You can use your usual brushes and paints. If you do not have some pigments, many of them can be replaced with similar ones or can be mixed. I use masking fluid in two out of four works and it really comes in handy.
