About the video: What are we going to do in the course

Overview

“In this course we will learn to color with watercolor a comic page or an illustration of its own or another cartoonist. Personally, I think watercolor is a wonderful technique because not only does it allow me to have great control over the final result, at the same time it is like working with an organic being that you never fully control. You have to let the watercolor do its part of the job. Transparencies allow you to add layers until you achieve the desired result.

In this video lesson Sergio Bleda addresses the topic: What are we going to do in the course, which is part of the Domestika online course: Watercolor Coloring for Comics and Illustrations. Learn direct coloring techniques and how to apply them to your vignettes and illustrated stories.
