Atmospheric Scenes: Step-by-step with Ilya Ibryaev
This is your guide by the admired master, into the world of breathing and living land- and cityscapes! From composition to perspective, from natural objects to people, and from memory to reference photos! What a great journey and over 6 paintings!
"If you don’t like the reference - don't be afraid to change it! An artwork isn't a photograph; it should be more painterly."
Ilya Ibryaev
Ilya Ibryaev is a globally recognized and acclaimed artist, renowned for his atmospheric landscapes and cityscapes.

"I paint emotional landscapes that reflect the era and the people living in that era", Ilya says about his approach.
⠀
The master will teach you how to paint landscapes swiftly and expressively, and watercolor will be your ally in achieving this.
⠀
"In watercolor, just placing a stroke of paint on paper lets it flow, come alive, and do up to 50% of the artist's work", – let's use this superpower of the medium and create amazing artworks with our instructor!
