Easy Watercolor Painting | Misty Lake & Schmincke Retro Set

Join me as I paint a quiet, atmospheric scene - a cold, misty morning where the soft light barely breaks through the heavy clouds. This piece is all about subtlety, blending colors, and creating a sense of depth and tranquility. As I work, I’ll share my thoughts on the painting process: how I build layers of muted blues and grays, how I let the mist soften the edges, and how I approach light to make it feel diffused and natural. Painting atmospheric scenes like this is not just about technique but also about capturing a feeling, a fleeting moment frozen in time. Along the way, I reflect on the power of imagery, the way scents evoke memories, and how art, just like fragrance or music, can transport us to different places. This piece reminds me of cold morning walks to university, the smell of damp leaves in the air, and the quiet introspection that misty days bring. What does this painting remind you of? A dream? A place you’ve been? I’d love to hear your thoughts in the comments! If you enjoy this kind of content, consider subscribing for more painting journeys.
