I’ve been “teaching myself” watercolor for the last handful of years. I’ve never, ever been drawn to abstract work, but after watching this video I felt absolutely driven to do it. Now I’m six little paintings richer! Well done! Thank you for the inspiration and instruction. :)
That is wonderful, so pleased you found this inspiring 😊
I know what you mean. Me too. I had to put my art work away as I didn't get any support from parents. In the end I actually married an artist and he has been so supportive. But abstracts always seemed like a cop out. Except that they are not. I've sent off for some card stock, and I am going to make some of these and sell them on the internet. So happy.
Great video! You inspired me! Thank you!❤
Thanks for such a fun time!
Gramma Sharman: I’m going to do this with my grandkids this summer!!
Dankeschön für diese schöne Idee 🎉🎉🎉🙏👍
I would love one like this for Christmas cards.
Great idea!!
I never would say I love abstracts but I heard you say something. “Move with feeling”your pencil. But I pray as I
Paint and I can’t wait to pray and pain abstract.
Love these!!! Definitely have to give it a go! Thank you!😍😁
Thanks Karin! I love watching your videos here on TH-cam 😁💝
Thank you so much 😊

You are a natural presenter Karen and your abstracts make me think of super-modernist stained glass windows. Dynamic and vibrant. Simply beautiful.
I actually really like the last one you showed that you said "didn't work out". I think it did
Thanks for sharing that. I’m pleased that you like that last one.
This tutorial WAS fun! Loved it! Thx Karen
You are so welcome!
Abstracts are in the eye of the beholder! They’re all beautiful.
You are an excellent teacher!
Thank you 😊
Yes! Inspire achieved!
Thought I'd say you look very beautiful! You're work is beautiful too ❤ thanks for the videos!
Thank you so much!
Fabulous. Having a go next week at art class
Have fun 😊
Not only did I enjoy your video but I just wanted to mention how lovely and natural your make up looks❤😊
Thank you 😊
I like the abstracts you make!! Thanks
Glad you like them!
Marvelous. Must do. Thank you so much.
Sometimes you just never know what you can wind up with when throwing paint around. These all turned out so different and beautiful. Thank you for a fabulous tutorial!
Thanks for this great tutorial. The cards are lovely, and each a wonderful painting in it's own right. I actually love the one you said didn't work out, and thought you were going to put it aside to frame!
Thank you so much!
So very helpful - you are a great teacher
Thank you 😊

Beautiful video Karen I will have to try this one I found it very relaxing and creative. I will most certainly be watch more of your creations, thank you so much for sharing, lots of love from Derbyshire. Dot x.
Wow.... so beautiful... the one you said didn't work out, I saw a very lovely blue angel in the sky 💙💙💙.... diffrent eyes see different things...
You are so right! Thank you!
........ Also, I spend an absolute fortune on buying art print cards in box sets of my favourite artists, usually from Museums and Gallery shops. I will save my money and do my own cards in the future. My area is portraiture but I love love love creating abstracts in multimedia just for fun and to colour mix or loosen up. Thanks for the inspo 👍
Thank you so much for sharing! Have fun creating your own cards 😊
I REALLY liked the one that "didn't work out". I have an abstract mind. Saw a Raven in it.
☀️Thank you. Inspires me to have fun with color.
You’re welcome 😊
Wunderschön, danke 💐
Marvelous! 👏👏👏
Thank you for inspiring me.
I must say that I’m so excited that TH-cam introduced us! I’m loving the idea of these abstracts/cards/paintings. Brilliant!
Love it. Can’t wait to have a go❤
Wow I was inspired by your Abstract tutorial
Thank you!
Beautiful! Thank you. You've inspired me to try you techniques. 😊
Wonderful 😊
I love all of them and this is a great fun exercise. Thank you.
Very enjoyable to watch. Will be making some soon.
Have fun 😀
I made 3 sets of these cards. I wasn’t thrilled with most of the panels on the third set and found a great way repurpose them. Using a die cut machine with standalone flower-shaped dies, I used the painted panels as the cutting material. The die-cut flowers are gorgeous! I’m planning another set of abstract panels in shades of green for die-cutting leaf and sprig shapes and will then assemble various pieces to create greeting cards. So fun!
Great idea! Thank you for sharing 😊
WoW, just wow. I’ll try it. Thank you
Thank you 😊
W aTching you work your magic was inspirational! I have just started using watercolours, I’ve always enjoyed making craft things , from Christmas tree decorations to soft furnishings! From 2020 til now I have had 8 strokes which left my vision Im paired and my left side weak! In order to keep busy , I thoughpainting would help me pass the time being productive so I’m going to have a go at some abstract art as you make it look such fun Thank you for sharing your techniques I will try to keep updated. With your videos, God bless you… Tina👋🏿
Thank you so much Tina! I’m so pleased that you found this one inspiring 😊
Hi I really enjoyed your tutorial, and will watch more, thank you, I love blues and greens too.!
Thank you so much!
!!!!!!!!!Tolllllll!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Schön!!!!!!!
So beautiful and, as a very new beginner, can’t wait to try this!
Have fun!
What a wonderful process for watercolors, especially for people like myself who are petrified to pick up a paint brush. I created two sets of abstracts yesterday, and today my friend, who is a true artist, came to my home and we each painted another set. So fun to work alongside someone else who has different sensibilities around creating art with paint. My friend embellished with Tombow brush pens. We also used a toothbrush for splattering. For some panels that had dead spaces, I went in with a watercolor pencil and brushed in little starbursts of color to create a more complete look. This process is addictive and I plan to make one more set tomorrow while all my art toys are still spread out over the dining table. Thank you Karen for the inspiration🙏🏼
Hello Karen, Thank you for these really helpfull videos. I´m from Bavarian,, and my school days are 30 Years ago now. I find your english so good and clear and easy to understand.
The top right brings back memories of offshore yacht sailing in the Baltic Sea when I was in the Army in the 80's.
Wow! Thanks for sharing!
Just lovely! I'll be trying this soon! thanks for the inspiration. 😊
Thanks Liz
I Will definitely try this! Thank you! 🎉
Have fun!
I really like the bottom middle one. It looks like a road going under a very stormy sky, pe3rhaps the beginning of a hurricane. Really like this idea, I would never have thought of doing this. Thanks so much.
Karen the one you didn't think worked, I could see a wonderful soaring bird above a lake. Gorgeous.
Wow! Thank you for sharing!!
I’m a true beginner and you have inspired me to the point of feeling like I can do this!!
Love this - thanks
Such a great idea for creating several cards while experimenting and practicing painting at the same time! Karen, I love your creativity and enthusiasm for making watercolor fun! You are a fantastic teacher! Thank you!
Very good❤
Beautiful cards. Very grateful for explaining so well the step by step of its realization!
You are so welcome!
The mini painting you named Blue abstract is absolutely beautiful.❤
What an interesting video. Thank you. You inspire freedom boosting the creative process.
Lots of fun and no pressure!
WOW!
A fine mesh metal tea strainer works well for making powder of watercolor pencil.
Great techniques…learned new stuff…thanks
Glad it was helpful!
❤ i enjoyed the card painting presentation , they are very nice indeed greetings from Christiane Berlin Germany 😊
Thank you so much!
Thank you for a wonderful video. Your enthusiasm and encouragement is contageous!! Those tiny abstracts seem very achievable, even for a beginner like me ..... keep us the good work.
You are so welcome 😊
Excellent tutorial! Thank you!🙂👍
I did love the cards you made 😃
Enthralling colourful touch 🎉
Thank you 😊
thank you so much for sharing your knowledge.
You are so welcome. :-)
So pretty!
Thank you! 😊
Very inspiring! Everyone can see something different in them. I saw a blue sun, a river stream, a sail and a green whirlpool.
Loved these…..have to try this!
Have fun 🤩
Love this and love your videos!
Thanks so much 😊
Love these and the technique. Will have to give it a try soon.
Have fun!
These are great. A fun idea if you are putting white borders on white card is to cut a colored piece slightly larger than the painting for contrast.
Great tip! Thank you 😊
I know you just somehow fling paint about & scratch & spatter & plonk & scrape, but you truly have magic in those molecules as they do turn out looking so interesting & beautiful. And your techniques do help others create magic too.
Thank you Allison! Great description of my process! 😂
No nonsense video great teaching and pace. Thank you very inspiring
Loved this, I'm going to try it now
Have fun!
This was so useful. I’ve been trying to figure out the basics of how someone would go about abstract painting in watercolor and this is the best video ever, so informative and easy to understand. Thank you!!!!
Thank you Olivia, so glad it was helpful😊
A touch of white really makes the painting stands out and feel like there are lots of details to look into❤
Your cards are so beautiful. A very inspirational video with so many tips. Thank you.
Thank you so much!
Beautiful techniques!
Thank you so much!
Thank you, bless you, inspirational 🙏🏽🤗
You are so welcome
Love this for card making. So conducive to creating a one of a kind cards. I’ve been selling cards as “Framable Art Cards”. A card plus a gift of art. Sometimes I include a frame to be wrapped as the gift.
Wow!!! I'm too new to watercolor but maybe someday! Do you sell locally or Etsy? A California Gramma ♥️
Cheryl, I've been doing the same. It's a great way to gift someone and it's so fun to do. A win-win!
