This is a basic class on Line & Wash and I chose birds as the subjects as I think birds are easiest to draw and paint as they have quite a simple body shape.

Line & Wash is basically drawing your subject with liner pen and then finish off with a wash of watercolor. Wash is basically diluted watercolor, hence, wash is just a mix of watercolor and water with a consistency of milk. We do not want it to be too thin like tea as watercolor will tends to dry into a light colour.

My name is Zain and I am an artist who loves all kinds of mediums. I paint with watercolors, soft pastels, Panpastels, gouache, charcoal, markers, inks, pastel pencils, color pencils and even wool. 

In this class, I am going to walk you through the process step by step right from pencil sketching to the painted birds. I will also give you some tips and tricks all compiled into one video.

With that all being said, lets proceed with our video lessons...
