I have done a lot with gouache and casein on top of tinted paper but not transparent watercolor. I'm up for trying anything to learn! Thanks again! :) Jared Cullumhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08118946650091026386noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2999230124118604245.post-56356528588902898422017-03-11T18:13:16.598-05:002017-03-11T18:13:16.598-05:00Very cool...

I see a little birthday present for myself as my birthday is on the 21st :-) <br /><br /> Oh and another suggestion for Jared is ink tense pencils... you can lay down the colors, wet to activate but once dry on the paper it will not lift when you paint over it.

The closest you can get to it online right now is my pages on Google Open Gallery, but there you can't scale the image while listening to the audio.<br /><br />Jared, painting on toned paper is good fun. I don't know if it was taught at Art Center because I was hired out of there to paint animation backgrounds after my second semester, so I didn't stay in for the full term. But I think Craig Nelson might have been teaching that. Going back a ways, it was a popular method for J.M.W. Turner and Wm. Trost Richards—check out what they did with it. You might also experiment with pre-toning your watercolor paper with a light to mid-value casein underpainting, either a light red, an "ochery" yellow, or a bluish color. Putting a little chroma as well as tone can enliven a color scheme. Also, you can do a "ghost wash" over the whole thing (except the lightest lights) as David Curtis and Trevor Chamberlain do.James Gurneyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01870848001990898499noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2999230124118604245.post-58658133409152360652017-03-11T14:14:48.780-05:002017-03-11T14:14:48.780-05:00I can't wait to download this.

It's a brilliant idea. <br />On the topic of sketchbooks- I've been taking classes from different teachers who all practice watercolor sketching on scrapbook or toned paper (Steve Huston, Nathan Fowkes, Joseph Zbukvic to name a few). <br />Since I started painting, I've only used white cold press or hot press watercolor paper to practice watercolor since it seemed the most agreeable. I get the value of the middle tone ground although I'm struggling working out value on it but I hope to get better with loads of practice. <br />Side note: I also noticed a through-line of a lot of the teachers I've been learning from online who practice this sketching method of watercolor on a particular toned heavy cardstock being Art Center alumni. (Huston, Fowkes for example) Was that something taught there or just something they all happened to pick up with time/experience? <br />I didn't grow up or college somewhere with a "fine" art ed so I admit this may just be a common practice that totally escaped my late self-education.

Is there a chance for a version of the app for Windows, macOS, and Linux in the future? Something like Electron could be used to create a rich Web-based UI that would work on all three platforms.Dustin Wilsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07949282290702663377noreply@blogger.com
