Now this is a great tutorial! Thank you Liron for slowing down giving us beginners a chance to see watercolor in real time. Personally I would like more of this type of tutorial. Glad your thinking of more lessons/titorials.
When you narrate your videos as you paint I find that I learn so much more (though I'm sure it's more challenging for you). It really makes me see what you see in the reference photo, and my mind starts thinking about what I see differently and how I would have interpreted/represented the scene (although I'm not nearly as good as you...yet!). So these videos help me find my own artistic preferences and expression. One thing I've heard you mention several times is that you know in advance which colors you will be using for a painting. I would love to see a video where you are looking at your reference photo and deciding on your palette/color scheme before you even put pencil or brush to the paper. The thought process behind your choices. Thanks a million for another great video and for letting us be part of your journey this year!
Thank you so much 😊🙏🏼 It’s my pleasure! Regarding real time - it may be a little harder to paint, but these videos are easier to edit 😉 But I see that people find them more helpful in some senses, so definitely more on the way! Regarding choosing colors for a particular painting - I added it to my “to film” list 🎨🙏🏼
I have watched this video a lot, Liron. It is one of the best narrations about painting values. Thank you again. Have a blast in New York! Wish I was there with you and your many other students!
Decision paralysis and the worry that a misplaced stroke will screw up the painting can slow me down a lot if I'm not careful. Hearing your thought process behind each stroke as well as how you correct mistakes is very helpful!
Thanks for this tutorial, really appreciate the real time, train of thought process. Great way to explore and find favourites. Instinct develops as a result from training and practice -and exercises like this help us get to that point. Lots of teachers say "follow your instincts" or "you will just know what works best" -which I always found frustrating as a beginner, as I obviously did not know as much as they did. Great painters are not always great teachers. This is why I find this tutorial valuable. Your commentary takes us through the thought process and practice. I noticed that the more I practice, the easier it is to decide based on this past experience. This training then kicks in almost unconsciously later on, and it is as a result of practice. Nobody is born with an advanced skill...we are all learners until we get there. Thanks again for these very useful studies and tutorials.
Thank you so much for the kind words! 😊🙏🏼 I can relate to a lot of what you say. It’s almost like studying a new science. At first, you barely know what any of the terms mean. And you simply have to ACCEPT that and go ahead and read about every small thing! Then, once you know the terms, you can start learning ideas (not even understanding them necessarily, just learning). And so it goes 😁
I like all your videos, Liron, but I think this was one of your very best. It dealt with one of the most important elements of watercolour (control of values) in such a clear and well-explained way that at no stage was there any doubt as to what (and how) you were aiming to achieve in the painting. Lots of good 'take-aways' for me from this one. Many thanks for sharing it with us all. Best wishes, Brian.
I'm already an experienced drawer but did my first ever water color attempt today. Made a right mess, but already learned some things. Now I found this channel and it seems to be exactly what I was looking for. Like you said, the narration of the thought process is most important! Bless you.
What a great and helpful video. Thank you, Liron. I'm sure it is much more helpful for us to see you working in real time and "thinking out loud". Such a wonderful tutorial and so much information packed in!
I love the impressionist style. I really want to learn but im struggling because I rely too much on what the actual color is. This and other videos of yours explained it well. Thank you for the help.
Bro you are a watercolor Jedi... I learned so much. You made it and make it so easy and beautiful in the usage of simple clear colors. Thank you sensei!
Nice one love your turatiol artwork painting video 💐 💐 👏🏾 👏🏾 💯 🖌️ 🎨 🍾 🌹 Very interesting to look at colors i love it 🔥 🔥 🔥 🔥 🔥 🔥 🔥 🔥 Its amazing and intresting to see colours in background 👌🏾 and the deatail
Liron. This is THE BEST tutorial. You said “don’t be held back by fear…” When I was at school in the 70’s I was fairly relaxed and happy about sketching and painting. When I started nursing in the 1980’s I stopped making time for art. In my 60’s I have more time. I buy paper and paint but don’t want to mess it up. I lack confidence and feel inhibited. I observe too much and do too little. I tell my grown up kids who are artistic, not to relinquish the skill they have just because it is not needed in their day job or because they are too tired. I urge them to hone the skill they have if only for a little time each week. Today, for the first time in a long time I stopped procrastinating and trying to make a perfect likeness. I remembered my studies in 1970’s of the Impressionists after thinking of your comment about your style. I have followed this tutorial, stopped and started, and relaxed. My husband has come and asked what I have been doing. I told him that this is the first time I have felt positive and inspired in a very long time. Thank you Liron. I am going to be braver and abandon the fear.
That is just AMAZING 🤩 I’m so happy to hear!! 🎉🎉 Keep up the great work. Fear is an illusion, all there is - is the creation process and the here & now 😊🎨🎨🎨
bevvyk1 I so relate to what you're saying. I got so stuck when I started drawing, still sometimes with watercolor. My best friend is the trashcan -- knowing I will chuck 90% of what I do frees me up to make the mistakes that lead to growing. Also, when I see a painting going bad, I call it an "experiment" with no chance of surviving and I go bold and crazy and I learn something. And then I toss it and feel great. 😄
For me it’s been about two years to get a good feeling of which colors I really love. Not the colors themselves which is how beginners and crafter people choose colors but choosing colors as a tool to complete a desired effect of the whole painting. Sure, I love all colors but I’m acquiring definite preferences for a working palette. Over Consumer Alert: (hello, America) you don’t need all the colors! Values are what is most important.
I enjoyed this very informative video. I haven’t mastered the expressive style yet, I’m still too… rigid in my work, too much focus on the details. But I’m still enjoying what I do and love learning these videos about all these other styles and such I can take on after I’m done playing with my current style. This is my second video of yours, love how you explain things, detailed without too much information so it’s easy to take in, not overwhelming. I will keep on enjoying you videos. One question though: what is that micro level and macro level?
Really really good lesson - hearing your thought process with your painting is sooo good - learning a lot. Things I can put into practice. Wish it was as easy as you make it look - but practice is helping! Thank you
I loved this one. I particularly liked that you pointed out that the values are of primary importance and the colors are secondary. I'll try to remember that. Your fruit had a very fresh look, which is something I'm noticing about your paintings. Also, I'm so glad you're getting your drive back!
Usually I don’t, but I am discovering that I sometimes will prefer more opaqueness and sometimes more transparency. This is probably something I should explore further.
Thank you so very much for the camera shots that show your palette, water and how you are wetting and (sometimes) cleaning your brush. No one seems to give these sort of basic and very important tips and advice. Also, thorough advice on achieving a consistent, even wash. You spend time explaining. You have become my go-to advisor. Thank you for taking the time and understanding the needs of beginners and beyond!
Great video, thanks. I really liked that you worked live, but more slowly. It really gives this beginner a good look into both your technique and how you choose your colors. More of these types of videos would be greatly appreciated.
Yes, an especially helpful video! I agree with others who like your commentary while you paint (and I just plain admire it. I couldn't do it). A couple of times you mentioned the importance of one stroke where possible ~ the idea being (I think) to keep colors vibrant. I'm interested in that because sometimes my colors look dull once they're dry. It's increasingly noticeable with darker hues. Very disappointing because those hues look soo rich while they're wet! I read somewhere that too much brushing affects pigment particles somehow (i forgot exactly how) and that's why they dull. I would appreciate hearing what you have to say, Liron. Or if you've covered it in another video, just point me there. Thanks so much!
Thank you 😊🙏🏼 Yes - from what I hear messing around with the paint can lead to dulling / changing of the vibrancy. BUT - I never experienced it so much, so it's hard for me to tell with certainty. However, I do have a recommendation. If you find your paints end up looking too dull when drying, it could be that you are over-mixing. Try using more pure paints like I did here and see if that makes a difference. Let me know how it goes ^_^
What a great video. I get so hung up on precision, which is fine for drawing and learning brush control, but seeing the freedom in your strokes and color choices is inspiring! Thank you.
Hi Isabel! Thank you so much for joining 😊🙏🏼 You should have received a welcome & instructions email, but sometimes they end up in the spam folder / there may be a different issue. Could you email me to Liron @ LironYan . com? I'll take a look and send you everything you need! (I don't recall answering an email from you, but iff you have already sent one and I responded, please disregard this) Thank you so much once again (:
Wow that’s a gorgeous still life painting. If I hadn’t watch you paint this I would have missed so much of your color mixing, your limited color palette choices and mostly how you fixed the mistakes that you claimed as you were painting it. So much valuable information & inspiration in this video. It is definitely amazing how much control of the paint & water levels are used. I would have never thought 3 colors made this painting. Thanks for sharing this with us.
I attempted this today. I found it really difficult to get a lower value with my colours and had to do A LOT of mixing to approximate what you had... and this made things really muddy. Is this because of the pigments I used? Are there colours that just aren't good for this? Getting a dark value is something I've found very difficult with my current palette and I'm wondering what went wrong. The darkest value colour I have is a pthalo green, which was the only way I could get the really deep shadow colour. My ultramarine and red couldn't do it -- they just made a mid purple or brown depending on whether or not I included some ochre. I also tried using less water, but the colour still wasn't the right value. Please help!
Fascinating and so helpful to hear your thought process with the demonstration to sho the contours, planes, 3D shapes of the fruit. I really loved this.
My dear friend. How u r, bro? I watched again. Perfect demonstration of how to handle value and blending. Modeling. Excellent vid. Many thanks Liron my friend. Excellent.
This what we are after 😉 from you thinking out loud is extremely helpful. We watch hundreds of beautiful vids from many artists but no thought process attatched. I would like to see. An Urban style. Your thoughts before you start.. that 1st wash. Tell us how you decide what colour s and value and how you decided to break the wash ..sky mid then foreground. Explaining how before you start painting what your plan is..how you will use that 1st wash what you intended to show through. Will you choose wet in wet ect .... id like to know your plan thoughts before you start then show us hopefully this makes sense 😉 im a visual learner im sure many are. So maybe while telling us your planning you show us some rough swatches of colours next to each other that are the stages you intend to use. I do realise paint has its own finished /mind as you work and unfolds to final result . If your not happy with end result thats fine just explain why and how you would approach it if you were to do it again. Sorry its hard to compose the comments from my phone. HOPEFULLY you can work out my request 🙈
Thank you so much 😊🙏🏼 Your comment was very clear! This is the epitome of what I’m trying to do. I want my vids to feel like a private lesson, and show ALL of the process. I also want to do this outside! Will do my best to get there slowly but surely (these videos are harder and more time consuming, but I know it’s probably what will help people the most). Will try to do one like you describe for starters and see how it goes. Maybe even do some preparatory sketches and show you the process. Thank you for the valuable feedback 😊🙏🏼🎨🔥
Thank you Liron. I love how you paint! This was a superb lesson for beginners and for advanced. I love how you use 3 colors. And gave other 3 color examples. Today is Saturday which gives me time to try this out. I hope you will do more of these still life lessons for us beginners. Thank you again. 😊
It all depends on how wet the paint is (: Touch a very wet wash with wet paint or another wash and they’ll immediately merge. Let two drier washes touch and there may be a bit of movement, but not too much. Check this video out for more details 😊: th-cam.com/video/Q_VDYJgXNNc/w-d-xo.html
Liron, You are fabulous! I love your watercolor tutorials and how you break it down for us. I feel like I can do this following your lovely instructions. Thank you for being wonderful. ❤
Being a photographer, I feel it is going to be difficult to let go of trying to use the real colours. But as you made clear, at the end of the day it's a painting NOT a photograph. Thank you for your effort and time.
Hi Liron This was an excellent tutorial enjoyed watching the process please give us more like this. Also would love to see some drawing tutorials thanks again
❤the pears mine would be more yellow and my apple super dark but I enjoyed the process and understand a bit more the importance of darker shades thank you.😊
You are right! It comes down to experience and personal liking. So my fave combination at the moment is quin.gold by DS or Indian Yellow, indianthrone blue (delft blue - PB60) and pyrrole red for primaries. However, my all time love colors are cobalts. So sometimes I stick only within certain hue such as blue or turquoise with a complementary accent such as transparent pyrrole orange or warm yellow.
Simply amazing to watch you create a painting from the beginning, and love your explanations and thoughts during the painting. Thank you for sharing! Have a very happy New Year! I look forward to watching more of your videos in the year to come!
😍😍😍 Another great lesson!!! I ‘ve tried to paint together but had some difficult with the table reflection and the table itself. But I got there! Thank you very much. Greetings from Brazil.

Will try and do more soon

I love how ur colors look better than the natural ones,especially the pears👍🏻
Thank you 😊🙏🏼
I find that often natural colors bore me 😉🎨 So I go with more unique colors
I have watched this video a lot, Liron. It is one of the best narrations about painting values. Thank you again. Have a blast in New York! Wish I was there with you and your many other students!
Decision paralysis and the worry that a misplaced stroke will screw up the painting can slow me down a lot if I'm not careful. Hearing your thought process behind each stroke as well as how you correct mistakes is very helpful!

I slowly learn how patience also plays an important role in this as well. I find it helps me to worry less!

These videos are really helpful to improve my water colouring
I love the impressionist style. I really want to learn but im struggling because I rely too much on what the actual color is. This and other videos of yours explained it well. Thank you for the help.
Hey! Very good tutorial and tips. I mostly use acrylic inks but a lot of what I saw will help me.
Very happy to hear (:
Ink is so much fun!
Bro you are a watercolor Jedi... I learned so much. You made it and make it so easy and beautiful in the usage of simple clear colors. Thank you sensei!
Thank you so much 🙏🏼🙏🏼😁😁🎨🎨 Hope I can improve even more and be a Jedi master!
So engaging - loved watching this and learnt heaps - thank you
Love the colors.
Bravo! Intense and useful class. Thanks a lot! 👏
Very nice. It felt like I was seeing through your eyes.
I have learned so much from this video. You have simplified the colour question down to such an understandable and basic level. Thank you Liron.
So happy to hear 😊🙏🏼
Thanks!
Thank you! This was a great tutorial!!
You sure know your stuff, Liron! I always learn a lot! Color choice can make or break a painting, so great to focus on this. Thanks! 🙂
So happy to hear 😁🎨 Thank you

Thank you 😊🙏🏼 So happy to hear!
Liron. This is THE BEST tutorial.
You said “don’t be held back by fear…”
When I was at school in the 70’s I was fairly relaxed and happy about sketching and painting. When I started nursing in the 1980’s I stopped making time for art. In my 60’s I have more time.

Really really good lesson - hearing your thought process with your painting is sooo good - learning a lot. Things I can put into practice. Wish it was as easy as you make it look - but practice is helping! Thank you
That's exactly right Linda!
Thank you so so much 😊🙏🏼
Thank you Liron!
You are an exceptional art instructor.
this tutorial is a New Year present from you to us :)
Happy I can give you a present! 😊🙏🏼 Thank you
Very helpful, thank you !.....
I loved this one. I particularly liked that you pointed out that the values are of primary importance and the colors are secondary. I'll try to remember that. Your fruit had a very fresh look, which is something I'm noticing about your paintings. Also, I'm so glad you're getting your drive back!
Thank you so much 😁🎨 I have a few very fun videos on the way, really enjoying making these!
Hi Liron; I really enjoy your tutorials. You relaxed, creative painting style is lovely. Thank you!
You handsome devil. You could paint a fried egg and I'd watch. Happy new year.
😂😂 Trying to make everything interesting 🎨🎨
Have a fantastic 2019!! 🙏🏼🙏🏼
Dan Thomas same
I learned a lot from this video. Awesome thank you 💕
Thank you for watching, Michelle 😊🙏🏼🙏🏼
Thank you. This has helped greatly.
😊🙏🏼
Súper!
Very helpful!
Beautiful, Liron - very helpful! Specifically what phthalo blue - like bending green, etc., do you like? Thank you so much!
When choosing colours, do you think about transparency vs opaqueness?
Usually I don’t, but I am discovering that I sometimes will prefer more opaqueness and sometimes more transparency. This is probably something I should explore further.
Yes. Can you do i video on that topic? Sedimentary, staining, opaque, transparent....soo confusing. So glad i found yoy!
Really enjoyed this! Taught me a lot. Thank you.
I love you Liron
Thank you so so much 🙏😊♥

Wow thank you so much 😊🙏🏼 Doing my best to create the best videos out there!
Very beautiful
To make dark colour apple which colour I used, can you tell please
Great video, thanks. I really liked that you worked live, but more slowly. It really gives this beginner a good look into both your technique and how you choose your colors. More of these types of videos would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you 😊🙏🏼 I will be trying to do more of these true real time tutorials. People seem to find them helpful

However, I do have a recommendation. If you find your paints end up looking too dull when drying, it could be that you are over-mixing. Try using more pure paints like I did here and see if that makes a difference.
Let me know how it goes ^_^
OMG, I love this primary combo Liron, thanks for teaching me from afar!
Thank you Robin! It’s my pleasure 😊🙏🏼🙏🏼
This is so good! You hit so many useful points and I love the explain-while-you-paint style.
Thank you 😊
Terrific. Nice tutorial
Happy to help 😊🙏🏼
What a great video. I get so hung up on precision, which is fine for drawing and learning brush control, but seeing the freedom in your strokes and color choices is inspiring! Thank you.
Thank you ☺️ So happy to hear that! Keep practicing and with time you learn to combine the two (precision and freedom).
This was extremely helpful! You are such a natural teacher!
Thank you so much!! Just what I was hoping for! ❤
So happy to hear, thank you 😊🙏🏼
Perfect....thankyou Leon ...you’re style of teaching is so inspirational and encouraging...keep on with these type of videos
Hi Liron, I paid for the drawing course, how to get access???
Hi Isabel! Thank you so much for joining 😊🙏🏼
You should have received a welcome & instructions email, but sometimes they end up in the spam folder / there may be a different issue.
Could you email me to Liron @ LironYan . com? I'll take a look and send you everything you need!
(I don't recall answering an email from you, but iff you have already sent one and I responded, please disregard this)
Thank you so much once again (:
I really like the real time painting and your narrative. Very good, Liron! 👍🏻
So happy to hear 😊🙏🏼 Thank you
Planning on doing many more real-time vids
So glad you went back and got the shadow at the bottom of that second pear it was really bothering me. LOL
😂😂 Happy I ended up getting it!
Simply amazing, wonderful tutorial and so much information
Love the way you use colours
Wow that’s a gorgeous still life painting. If I hadn’t watch you paint this I would have missed so much of your color mixing, your limited color palette choices and mostly how you fixed the mistakes that you claimed as you were painting it. So much valuable information & inspiration in this video. It is definitely amazing how much control of the paint & water levels are used. I would have never thought 3 colors made this painting.

Fascinating and so helpful to hear your thought process with the demonstration to sho the contours, planes, 3D shapes of the fruit. I really loved this.
So happy to hear 😊🙏🏼 Thank you
Working in real time reveals some of your mental processes, to our benefit. Thank you
Thank you 😊🙏🏼 Indeed it does. I want to do more of these for this precise reason (:
My dear friend. How u r, bro?
I watched again. Perfect demonstration of how to handle value and blending. Modeling. Excellent vid. Many thanks Liron my friend. Excellent.
This what we are after 😉 from you thinking out loud is extremely helpful. We watch hundreds of beautiful vids from many artists but no thought process attatched. I would like to see. An Urban style. Your thoughts before you start.. that 1st wash. Tell us how you decide what colour s and value and how you decided to break the wash ..sky mid then foreground. Explaining how before you start painting what your plan is..how you will use that 1st wash what you intended to show through. Will you choose wet in wet ect .... id like to know your plan thoughts before you start then show us hopefully this makes sense 😉 im a visual learner im sure many are. So maybe while telling us your planning you show us some rough swatches of colours next to each other that are the stages you intend to use. I do realise paint has its own finished /mind as you work and unfolds to final result . If your not happy with end result thats fine just explain why and how you would approach it if you were to do it again. Sorry its hard to compose the comments from my phone. HOPEFULLY you can work out my request 🙈
Thank you so much 😊🙏🏼 Your comment was very clear!
This is the epitome of what I’m trying to do. I want my vids to feel like a private lesson, and show ALL of the process. I also want to do this outside!
Will do my best to get there slowly but surely (these videos are harder and more time consuming, but I know it’s probably what will help people the most).
Will try to do one like you describe for starters and see how it goes. Maybe even do some preparatory sketches and show you the process.
Thank you for the valuable feedback 😊🙏🏼🎨🔥
@@LironYan thank you very much liron !👌👍💪
Thank you Liron. I love how you paint! This was a superb lesson for beginners and for advanced. I love how you use 3 colors. And gave other 3 color examples. Today is Saturday which gives me time to try this out. I hope you will do more of these still life lessons for us beginners. Thank you again. 😊
You have reminded me of things learned in Stan Miller's workshop. Excellent tutorial. Many thanks.
Great Video. Very helpful. I am v er y interested in the blending. How is it done?
It all depends on how wet the paint is (:
Touch a very wet wash with wet paint or another wash and they’ll immediately merge. Let two drier washes touch and there may be a bit of movement, but not too much.

You are such a good instructor! Great video! Thank you.
So happy it helped, thank you! 😊🙏🏼
Liron, You are fabulous! I love your watercolor tutorials and how you break it down for us. I feel like I can do this following your lovely instructions. Thank you for being wonderful. ❤
Hello Liron. I just curious, Did you ever had the Craig Young brass pallet?
I saw a lot of artists used that in watercolor
What a great exercise in color values! It is something I have trouble with, so I found it very helpful.
Being a photographer, I feel it is going to be difficult to let go of trying to use the real colours. But as you made clear, at the end of the day it's a painting NOT a photograph. Thank you for your effort and time.
Hi Liron This was an excellent tutorial enjoyed watching the process please give us more like this. Also would love to see some drawing tutorials thanks again
Informative video Liron, Happy New year. jen
Thank you 😊🙏🏼 Got a drawing tutorial on the way ✏️😉
@@LironYan thanks for the reply and really looking forward to the tutorial
Interesting approach to painting, and very pedagogical video. Congrats! 😀
Thanks so much for sharing your expertise and the informative video!
❤the pears mine would be more yellow and my apple super dark but I enjoyed the process and understand a bit more the importance of darker shades thank you.😊
I don't rly chose my colors I always use that what I want but next time I will try to choose them before painting 🍃
Let me know how it goes! (:
You may find that for you it's better to not choose in advance, and that's find too 😁🎨
@@LironYan I will :) And we'll see :) thanks for the answer
Great lesson! Great for learning more about values too! Thanks Liron!
My pleasure 😊🙏🏼 Happy I could help!
Fantastic! Thanks… so much help thinking about value in all of my paintings!
wonderful, Liron. Thank you! 🙏
Fantastic Liron. I learn so much from you. Thank you
Amazing colors and effects of the values resulting in three dimensions!
Really enjoy your videos! Thank you for sharing.
You are right! It comes down to experience and personal liking. So my fave combination at the moment is quin.gold by DS or Indian Yellow, indianthrone blue (delft blue - PB60) and pyrrole red for primaries. However, my all time love colors are cobalts. So sometimes I stick only within certain hue such as blue or turquoise with a complementary accent such as transparent pyrrole orange or warm yellow.
That’s the way to go! 😁🎨
I’m happy you discovered your favorites and how to use them 👏
Thanks, Liron for another awesome tutorial.
So happy you found it helpful! Thank you 😊🙏🏼
This was a great video. It was a privilege to hear you speak your thought process.
Awesome! Thank you Liron ☺👍

Very helpful. Did you have a link to the reference photo you used?
Simply amazing to watch you create a painting from the beginning, and love your explanations and thoughts during the painting. Thank you for sharing! Have a very happy New Year! I look forward to watching more of your videos in the year to come!
Thank you so much, have a fantastic 2019 😊🎆🎇 I hope I can continue making vids you’ll find helpful! 😊🙏🏼
