    Long time watcher, first time commenting. You have been my go to since beginning to tackle watercolor 5 years ago in my 70's. My primary takeaway from this video was using a tracing as a guide for my own drawing vs. transferring. Very helpful. You also asked if anyone would be interested in a video on TEXTURE. That was really exciting to me and I would definitely appreciate it. Thank you.

    What excellent, excellent tips Michele, thank you so much for doing this. I really learned about Tip 15 on my own last year when I was trying to draw mushrooms. I simply love all your tips and especially your Tip 16! lol love your mug. I can see too that drawing like that every day would help you to see better as well. I am getting better with Tip 17, but I'm still working on it - lol!! There is much that you mentioned that I just learned last week as ah ha moments. It is surprisingly hard to find really brilliant teaching on certain subjects and yes, eventually, one can learn these things, but it is so much easier to learn from a great teacher. Thank you so much Michele for being a great teacher and providing us with so much.

    Used to draw with pencils all the time. A source of great pleasure and relaxation all on its own. Hardly ever do it in these days of computerised everything and TH-cam entertainment. Same with reading fiction. As much as modern tech makes life easier, it also seems to make it emptier. Miss the old days.

    I watched this video a few weeks ago and put tip 16 into practice (drawing with no expectation). I bought a fountain pen a few months ago and have really enjoyed using it for this practice exercise. I have not missed a day of practice in the last two weeks. I am starting to see results after just 14 days. Thank you Michele for this wonderful tip.

      You can do either way. Into wet sometimes is a little more effective. It will make dark lines as it attracts the pigment.
