Project: Watercolor Rainbow Drops (inspired by Sky Study with Rainbow by John Constable)

Have ready three or more colors. Wet your brush and let a few drops of your darkest color fall at the top edge of your watercolor paper. Tilt it at various angles to encourage the paint to slide down the page. If the color isn’t dark enough, add another pass with the same color. If you’re happy with your first drip, allow it to set up and almost dry before introducing your next color. You can guide the drips with your brush, or blot them with a paper towel and go back in with more watercolor.

Using the second darkest color, start at the top of the page again and add a new drip near the first. Make decisions as you go along, adding more of the second color or letting it dry and switching to the third. You can create your rainbow as wide as you’d like, with as many colors as you’d like, going in any direction you prefer.

Take a look at your page. Did the colors run into one another? Are there drips you want to clean up? Add a background with thinned white gouache, leaving the drips you like visible.

If there are spaces between the bands of your rainbow, decide if you’d like to fill them with new colors or blend the edges of the existing colors. Make your colors as watery or bright as you like. There are many ways to paint a rainbow.

Inspiration from Moods and Moments

Quiet

The word 'quiet' can conjure images of a natural landscape, absent of the hum of the city. It can bring up colors that feel peaceful and hushed.

Calm

The repetition of marks, composition, subject matter, and other details of a painting impact whether or not it leaves the viewer with a sense of tranquility.

Delight

Delight has a joyful component to it and it's a wonderful feeling to meditate on, spend time in, and make art from.

Product Description

Drawing Calm teaches artists and non-artists how to find an oasis of calm every day by using the work of master painters to inspire creativity.

Maybe it's the colors, or the eye-widening vistas, or maybe it's just the idea that harmony can exist on a square of canvas, but there is something in
art that can calm and inspire at the same time.

In Drawing Calm, artist Susan Evenson, shows readers how to do the same. It's a book for everyone—non-artists as well as those with plenty of experience in a studio. Using restful, but dynamic works of art as a starting point, Susan Evenson teaches how to capture the light and peace of the master painting. Making use of "soft" techniques such as torn-paper collage, blended pastels, and wet-on-wet watercolor, this workshop encourages stress-free creativity.

After you learn how to set up your work space and what materials to gather, choose your soundtrack and get started with some warm-up exercises. Then, unwind with projects grouped by theme:

  • Delight
  • Quiet
  • Warmth
  • Harmony
  • Calm
  • Light
  • Rhythm

Put on the music that makes you happy and choose the colors that take you there too!
