Paint with Me: Dasher the Reindeer

In this week’s YouTube Video I walk you through a very simple watercolor of a reindeer (“Dasher”). This is a rather simple and fun way to add a little holiday cheer to any room. Or, if you paint him and want to gift him, smiles are sure to show up on faces.

Throughout the video, I provide you with information on:

• Where to find good reference photos

• Basic steps to take in approaching the painting

• Key techniques to ensure that colors don’t bleed together

• How to Paint fur

Here are the supplies that I use in the video:

• Arches Cold Pressed Paper

• Princeton Brush 6 Long Round

• Princeton Brush 3 Round

• Princeton Brush 3/0 Round

• Cosmotop Spin 12

• Princeton Liner 0

• Van Gogh Watercolor Paints

• Micron Pen

I hope that this video was fun and helpful. If you’d like to share your artwork from this video on Social Media, tag #brettblumenthalstudio and #bbsartshare
