Kids will generally have the same size head as an adult, just a smaller body. When I mentioned placing the heads on the same line, I should have clarified, adults are roughly on the same line. Hope that makes sense !!

Hi again Chris, as a new painter just wondering if you have ever visited Queensland Australia, in the middle of summer. I was thinking the colours would possibly be a little different. I would enjoy your opinion.
@ChrisStephenArt

I haven’t been to Australia, although I would love to visit !! From images I’ve seen, it looks like there would be less green, but I probably wouldn’t have any need to change anything on my palette. I’m a fan of Herman Pekel, I think he’s from Melbourne, but when I think of modern Australian landscapes, I think of his work.

@@ChrisStephenArt wow thank you so much for responding. We do have a unique colour scheme here and Melbourne colours are even different to Brisbane country side, especially our grey greens. Have you ever looked up Sir Arthur Strettons works he is also one of my favourites. Again thank you for responding, I do realy enjoy your lessons as I have only sust embarked on my watercolour journey.

I'd like to understand how the Masters used opaque watercolors because back then more of them were opaque, not like today. Everyone says don't use them, but that doesn't make sense. The only way I see them used today in examples is for segregated items, like a flower or animal, but not layered scenery. Is it they always have to be the last layer or what? What is so taboo about it?
@ChrisStephenArt

I personally don’t overthink it, if your painting needs body colour, or gouache, then use it, it’s really all about the finished result. Lots of Turner’s watercolours contained some elements of opaque paint, usually to reinforce an highlighted area and they’re amazing. The only time you may find a problem is entering work into exhibitions or competitions, in which case work containing gouache and watercolours together, would probably need to be listed as mixed media. Basically, just use whatever paint works for you, there are no rules !! Hope that helps

@@ChrisStephenArt Absolutely, no rules, do what your comfortable with and feels good to you. The Masters didn't listen to what tho's before them said or did, they just painted and led the next revolution in the art world.

When talking about eyeline: If you looked from above the heads would be higher as they go off in distance. In a worm eye view they would be lower.
