    Magic happens at 2:45. . . =^)
    This is a great technique that looks deceptively easy, but there are a few ways to mess it up. If you put your clean brush loaded with water directly on the paint edge, you'll get a blossom into the paint area; maybe not what you want. But if you start with the water a few cm away from the painted edge, and then just touch the brush to the edge of the paint, the pain will generally flow toward the water. That's what she's doing here. It is a subtle difference, but the end results are polar opposites.

      Oh thanks, what TH-cam channel do you have? Are you in any galleries.
      If you know all of this why don’t you get a channel or only watch what what YOU need to learn.
      This seems like criticism to me, I hope I’m wrong 😑
