Achieve a sense of texture, atmosphere, dappled light and dense foliage without painting details! Join master artist Cheng-Khee Chee, AWS DF, NWS, in this art instruction video and learn how to use rice paper to effortlessly achieve a sense of delicate patterning.
As a taoist, master watercolorist Cheng-Khee Chee seeks effortless solutions to artistic challenges. He believes in using the correct amount of energy on each stage in the painting process, and he developed his crinkle paper technique in response to this belief. In this workshop Chee shares with you his favorite method for rendering colorful, textured nature scenes.
Chee introduces you to a scant set of brushes and the few special materials you’ll need: liquid ink, inexpensive rice paper, and mounting paste. Chee teaches you to care for the paper using a time-tested method for crinkling, mounting, and repairing tears. Chee then leads you through the development of crinkle paper, demonstrating the influence of calligraphy and sumi-e painting on his work. You’ll see practical examples of both techniques to help you develop the brush control and delicate touch necessary for the main exercise.
Once you begin crinkling, you’ll learn quickly to capture tree forms and foliage and use your energy on refining designs instead of painting leaves and branches. Throughout the workshop Chee demonstrates the delicate touch that allows him to distill fine detail from the fractured patterns of his sized paper. You’ll follow his brush up close as he develops design relationships and imposes shapes among seemingly random veins of color. The result is a bright, bold, and highly textured landscape.
This workshop includes a secondary exercise on painting winter scenes. Chee uses a quarter sheet of rice paper to demonstrate ink painting on crinkle paper and to share elements of his winter color schemes. This exercise works hand in hand with the primary painting, helping you to develop a set of skills for every season.
By the end of the workshop, you’ll be ready to let your emotion and intuition guide you in creating intricate nature scenes. For a fresh, natural approach to landscape and nature painting, join Cheng-Khee Chee for the fifth volume in his workshop series, The Crinkle Paper Technique.
You see Cheng-Khee Chee make important design decisions to create a strong yet delicate scene. Cheng-Khee Chee’s process enables you to focus on structure and design while his crinkle paper technique takes care of the rich texture. This watercolor video workshop teaches a wonderful technique for many otherwise daunting.
