Paint with Me: a Layered Landscape

Last week on the blog I shared a preview of a landscape series I worked on for a local display. This week you’re invited to paint along with me! Here are a few things you can grab to prepare:

SUPPLIES

  • jar of water
  • paper towel for blotting
  • watercolor paints. I am using this set in the video.*
  • flat and rounded brushes
  • watercolor paper or a sketchbook
  • pastels for layering. In the video, I am using chalk pastels like this.* I also often use NuPastels,* which get creamy when dipped in water.
  • pencil. I prefer the Tombow 6B.*

THE VIDEO

I hope you enjoyed the video! I’d love to see what you create. You can tag me on Instagram or Facebook!

This episode of The Pictured Word Podcast is Chapter 3 of the Jesus Speaks to Women Series on the words Jesus spoke to the Samaritan woman at the well, found in John 4:1-42. You can listen on the Marydean Draws Substack page or on most podcast apps.

In this study, I examine the common assumptions we often hear about this story, provide important cultural context, and try to understand what the conversation between Jesus and the woman, the longest recorded between Jesus and anyone in the Gospels, is actually about.

❤️Welcome to The Pictured Word podcast, where I look at Scripture through a curious writer and artist’s eyes, draw on the beauty found in the tradition of Christian art, and learn from the insight of Biblical scholarship. Whether you come to the Bible weary, wounded, or wondering, my goal is to help you see the Jesus revealed there.
