Watercolor & gouache: Street festival painting – James Gurney

This time James Gurney is painting a street-festival scene in Kingston, New York. It’s quite challenging painting the crowd and the atmosphere of these kind of events. He paint small size painting en plein air with big brushes so the result is a loose but still detailed artwork. While he paints, he explain his process so you can follow and understand how to achieve such amazing results.
