    This is such a lovely painting, Karen! I love that you included so much technical content in it in such a short time frame. It is easy to follow and the end result is wonderful. I think the addition of the people really added to the painting and I get a calm and cozy feeling looking at it 😊. I am a beginning watercolorist so this will be a wonderful painting for me to practice those techniques. I will definitely give it a go by the weekend and see how I do 😀 thanks so much! 💕

    The card making the rocks actually made me gasp once you said what you were doing and I realized. Amazing!

    Fastinating!!!!

    Interesting how Karen's teaching style is no nonsense. Some tutors really go around the houses to tell you things😂

    What a lovely painting. It always amazes me that suddenly the painting becomes clear. Just those few details make all the difference.

    Thank you so much for including the info about paper towel dabbing! It took me 9 months on my watercolor journey before I realized the necessity of this technique. (And even then, my frugal self resisted "wasting" all that paint!) You have helped me and many others with your careful discussion of this and other techniques in this video!

    This is so instructive and makes me think I could actually achieve such a painting myself as a complete novice. Thank you Karen

    My eyes popped out when you made those rocks with the card. That's a trick I haven't seen. Thanks!

    This was totally AMAZING to watch - seeing every paint stroke come to life. You taught me so much in 16 minutes. THANK YOU!!!!!!!

    Karen, Thank you for your excellent tutorial. It might sunk in how to paint a figure in watercolour! 🙂 Also, the tip of using a card to scrape rocks into a painting is great.

    What a gorgeous painting, every tree, rock, splatter are the stars of this painting. With each one of your tutorials, I learn so much, and you have so much to teach us!!. Thank you Karen for being such a wonderful teacher and for your desire to share your knowledge with us. ❤

  • @MultiMartina12

    I‘m following you for years! You are such a great teacher. Every single word makes sense. After three I‘m now at a point where I’m getting more successful with my own attempts. Thank you so much, Karen.

    Thank you, Karen. I'm so glad you didn't show us the painting before you began using your imagination. I truly love to watch it only from a blank canvas / paper, seeing it all come together in it's process. I guess it's more clear to me that way. I hate seeing the end before I receive the gifts of your wonderful imagination and technique. It came out so beautiful. xxx

    Genius, great painter, great teacher, magical accent. I can listen to you all day. Love ya

  • @LornaKellyZim

    What a great tutorial. A big bonus is your speaking voice! So many of these tutorials have dreadful monotonous or squeaky or whiney voices that I can't bear to listen! And your explanations are so clear. Thank you. I am grateful to have discovered you!

    The best tutorial for showing all of the many techniques regularly used by watercolorists. Showing them in action is very helpful for beginners and advanced students alike. Thank you for the concise help and refresher course. Love the picture too!
