    I really like how to give one main lesson in each video and not paint at high speed leaving us to figure out what your are teaching. This is a sign of a great teacher. Thanks for being one!

    I am just beginning. I love the way you washed the colors. It is going to be my future.

  • @patsyannriendeau5971

    You make all of your steps very clear. Love watching your instruction and listening to you. Lovely.

  • @triciabennetts6578
    @triciabennetts6578 3 ปีที่แล้ว +4

    Perfect! 😄 Thankyou for taking the time to show how to apply variegated washes - as a beginner, I’m struggling with amounts of water to lay down and water to paint ratios.
    As there is a time frame involved, I usually end up panicking and lay too much of everything and end up with the seeming inevitable blooms and puddles.

  • @donnahenry3772

    @susanmorris1007 6 หลายเดือนก่อน

    Thanks for your clear instructions. I’ve been trying to learn this technique. I understand it so much better. I wasn’t getting the water off thoroughly or working quickly enough. Thank you!

  • @andrelemoine1815
    @andrelemoine1815 11 หลายเดือนก่อน

    Thank you ever so much. Had I seen your tutorials years ago I would have continued to attempt painting. The classes in watercolour and oils that I took were completely useless.😉

  • @achillelalonde

    Totally blown away by the new dimension you have added to watercolour for me; allowing full range of the natural magic of this medium. Super!

  • @sueshanks9447
    @sueshanks9447 4 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    I liked how you used washi tape to mask off the larger portion of the bird and then the white masking fluid for the little details. This saves on the masking fluid and time ! I am learning great tips from you !

    Wow! I feel such gratitude for this variegated technique; adding a fabulous new dimension to my work. I also applaud your willingness to share so generously and effectively your technique I can totally relate to your mention of how these very gated additions have contributed to loosening your work. Fabulous!

    Louise,
    You are a lovely watercolor artist. You speak to me because I tend to be heavy handed with water and very wet paint! Thank you for your wonderful tutorials. I am going to try the frog soon. Your bloopers are cute and anything sounds great with your accent. I am a fairly new watercolor artist and all tips are appreciated.
