Watercolour Painting Tutorial, Downloadable Pine Marten PDF, Learn to Paint Realistic Detail

The European Pine Marten is a fairly rare nocturnal animal belonging to the mustelid family. In the UK they can be found primarily in Scotland where they prefer a woodland habitat. The pale golden bib on the Pine Marten’s chin and throat is unique to each animal, and this has enabled specific individuals to be recognised and studied.

This intermediate level project is relatively straight-forward as long as you approach it in stages. Begin with very pale colours and washes to establish the groundwork for the finer fur detail. Spending time focused on these initial stages will reap rewards later, and the painting will gradually start to come to life. Try to avoid going too dark, too quick and also making the animal look too old with the overuse of white paint towards the end.

This is an instant PDF download, you could start work on this Pine Marten in a matter of minutes. You don’t even need to wait for the post to arrive! You will receive a 45-page PDF document. Set out in the same way as the tutorials I write for magazines. However, you get lots more large photos of the different stages.

Downloadable lessons enable you to work at your own speed, you can dip in and out of the content, you can spend time studying the fine details and practise the various techniques as often as you like.

Have fun with this lesson, take your time and let me know how you get on. Try printing off the last few pages which have the larger versions of the step-by-step photos for additional help.
