"Sunday Afternoon in Prague"
Walking through Prague on our last European holiday, I was able to photograph street scenes in the low sun. Perfect subjects for watercolor painting.
This video is very long. It will show that watercolours take hours to make them look like they were painted in minutes.
You can scrub forward to get the feel of the painting, and then maybe play real time if you are painting along.
The original photo is available for download on my web site. http://www.shirleypeters.com

End Music: Epidemic Sound Damma Beatz: "Redial"

I hope you enjoy watching this painting, and maybe consider having a go yourself.
