Most artists would agree that mastering watercolor and painting outdoors are two of the biggest challenges they face.

Watercolor has a reputation for being unforgiving and hard to handle.

Painting outdoors brings its own set of challenges, with light and weather changes, as well as making sure you have all the right tools and materials you need.

What if we told you that, with just one instructional video, you’ll see how to overcome both of these challenges? 

It’s true! You’re about to discover a great way to successfully blend your love of watercolor with your love of painting outdoors!

Soon, you’ll be happily painting the day away as you create gorgeous, high-quality paintings that showcase the stories you wish to tell.

In Painting Sunlight, Keiko Tanabe will help you overcome any obstacles to painting outdoors with watercolor!

A highly talented artist and sought-after workshop instructor, Keiko is known for taking her viewers beyond landscapes — to use the space as a setting for the people who occupy that space. Keiko loves to add little slices of life that bring drama and interest to her paintings — an idea you will embrace in your own work.

Take a look at this short trailer for a peek inside this video:

Keiko says that when she goes out to paint, she stops at the first thing that really speaks to her. Usually, a scene that has a balanced interplay of light and dark will be the first thing to catch her eye … even more than colorful flowers or historical monuments.

As she sets up her scene, Keiko explains how to visualize the final painting — to picture in your mind how it will look and how it will tell the story you want to tell through it. Once you have a clear picture of the final product, it will make things much easier as you move from start to finish.

She’ll even show you how to stay selective about what to include so your scene can have light flowing through it. You’ll see how the lights and darks create interest and atmosphere to help dramatize your paintings.

The Ideal Medium 

Due to frequent travel, Keiko chose watercolor as her primary medium. Keiko says of watercolor…

“This medium has a mind of its own. I love it and I hate it. Love it because of the elusive qualities — you never know what will happen.

“At the same time, it’s a huge headache because it’s impossible to control water! You just have to work with it, not fight it. Push and then pull. You have to find a rhythm … find your rhythm and your paintings will be good.”

In addition to the initial instruction, Keiko will conduct two full painting demonstrations for you — one a moody vineyard and the other, a colorful villa. Both will inspire confidence and encouragement for painting outside with this sometimes difficult medium. 

Along with the main video, you’ll get insights from the artist, a digital gallery of some of her best work, and high-speed segments of both painting demonstrations.

Keiko is a master watercolor artist who has conducted hundreds of workshops all around the world. Her work has been juried into exhibitions across America, Asia, and Europe. Her paintings can be found in corporate and private collections worldwide.

Born in Kyoto, Japan, Keiko grew up in an art-loving family who encouraged her to pursue her passion.

Study with Keiko and you’ll find that plein air painting and watercolor can — and do — go together very well! She’ll show you how you can master this combination by overcoming the challenges, embracing the natural tendencies of watercolor, and carrying out your vision of what you want your paintings to be.

With Painting Sunlight, you’ll be joining the legions of artists who have been informed and inspired by Keiko’s straightforward and clear teaching style.
