Guy Magallanes Watercolors
Three Amigos
3 Flamingos and their reflections
from Safari West
I'm planning on simplifying this image a lot!
I'm editing out the reflections of all the green foliage and the upper bank.
This will make the image mostly blue and more tranquil vs chaotic.
We'll still have all the yummy darks and ripples, just not the madness of all the greens and yellows. I've been wanting to paint this for quite some time - can't wait to get started.

You will receive a dropbox folder containing the photo reference and line drawing for this project.
Everything is recorded for your reference.
We start off the day with a Zoom Class, where you'll have an opportunity to ask questions and for a quick critique.
Then we go to YouTube Live, so you can clearly see what and how I'm painting, answering all of your questions from the zoom class.
Once the class is finished for the day, you'll get a replay of the Zoom Class & YouTube video.
