Hi Friends, Here is my new tutorial. I am showing three different approaches to tackle painting beach grass.
Many say first wash is just to get rid off the white of the paper, but not always. You will be surprised by the diferene the first wash makes to the final image.
Happy watercolor painting!

No.1 is my preferred. Awesome painting technique.
I like your creations of seagrass painting, it is absolutely new idea and valuable for us.
A great example, thanks!🤗
Great example, thanks so much🤗🤗
Thank you! I'm glad it's helpful!
Thank you for the comparison of different technics, I like #3 the most ☺️
The second is my favourite, it has everything of the first plus it has more detail.
Definitely the first one! I love the loose, fresh feel. But all of them are beautifully painted 🤩❤️
Thank you!
Agree ✌🏼
Excellent 👌
Thank you!
All 3 are lovely but I do like the 1st loose painting the best.
Thank you!
I like all 3. Every way is different, but all 3 are great
The first is my favourite too, love the glow ❤️
Thank you!
I love them all!
Thank you Laurie!
I like #2 and #3. I like #3 because you can see the sea behind/through the seagrass.
The second one looks the best to me, it's as fresh as the first but with a bitter more colour . Thanks very much Nina. X
Agree! The first one is a classy approach, hard to argue with, but I've been really liking dropping water into paint recently, so inclining to second as well now :)
Number one by far the best. Thank you for the demonstration :)
👍 thanks for your comment!
So glad I stumbled on this beach video!
Always happy to help! Thank you for your comment!
Thank you Nina for the comparison, I like the back lit & loose quality of the first one the best even though you still made the other two work. great demo!
Thank you John!

No. 1. The first wash glows, back lit by the sun.
Thank you!
Hard to say Wich one I like all are beautiful ❤️❤️❤️
Thank you!
1st one!
Thanks Margaret for sharing your choice!
Great comparisons, I learned a lot from this one demonstration: mainly the joining of the sea with the sky, because I usually have a hard edge horizon 🤦♂️
I also find that it can be tricky to get the timing right to scratch out the grass, but I guess it just takes more practice and paying more attention to the humidity of the paper.
All three are good in different ways. The first one has a much better beach grass texture and the shadow is beautifully done. The third one has a wonderful transition from the sky to the sea, but I didn't like the beach grass as much as the other two.
These are good exercises and warm ups to do, perhaps trying it with trees and other subjects against different washes etc. I need to do something soon, for some reason I haven't painted anything for about 3 weeks, mind you I did have a bout of Covid and two weeks of 35+ degrees here in Madrid.
Don't be too hard on yourself. 3 weeks is nothing...we all have our down days/weeks/months. I had vivid a while ago and it was not fun. Just relax and get better. Paints don't have legs they won't go anywhere 😉. Wow 35! It's hot. It gets up to 45 here, but the air is usually dry, so it's survivable, but 35 and humid, fingers crossed change would come soon! When I don't paint I usually read books or watch videos about painting. All my break throughs were done actually while I did not paint. I always say we paint with our mind, hands are just tools.
@@nvfineartstudio7296 Thank you for your supportive words, it is much appreciated. I tend to paint in spurts of lots of activity, interspersed with nothing, so maybe that's my natural rhythm. It is said that a little practice each day is better than nothing, but I haven't got into that disciplined approach yet - perhaps I never will!
Here in Madrid, we have very dry air too, so little or no humidity. However, I still find the heat drains my energy and motivation to paint. The paper dries so fast in this heat, so painting with watercolour is a challenge. I wet the back of the paper to give me a few extra seconds of humidity in the paper and that seems to help a lot.
Yes, the Covid symptoms, although not serious in my case, they seem to have left me lacking in my normal levels of energy, but I'm sure this is only short term - I hope so.
I recently recommended you and your channel while on a live TH-cam on the channel Liron Yanconski. Another viewer was asking about good TH-cam channels to help beginners and inprovers alike. He had a quick look at your channel and said he would look into it more. It's great that fellow TH-cam watercolour artists can learn from each other, just as us amateur hobby painters can.
Regarding watching painting videos, I feel I do this far too much. Perhaps I'm just internalising some of what I see, that one day will burst out onto the paper! I also attended my first ever workshop at an art store in Madrid (Jeco Bellas Artes) about a month ago. It was with the artist Miguel Torrús and it was amazing to see how fast and easy he made it look. My artist block started shortly after that, then followed by Covid and hot weather. Too many excuses, I know. I'm now getting ready to go on holiday, so I'm preparing a sketching kit to take with me and try some urban sketching as well as landscapes, I might even try some of the tricks and techniques that I saw in the workshop last month. 😀
@@markdonovan1540 thank you for spreading the word! I had very similar experience recently, when to J.Zbukvic workshop, I did a really nice few painting actually, but when I got home everything went up side down... It's like I lost "my vision" for a few days... that's good that it doesn't last forever :) Hope you have beautiful relaxing holidays and enjoyable plein air experience!
I am kind of undecided. I like the last 1, because of the darker values. But the first 1 is definitely lighter & brighter & looser. Think the 2nd could have been better without the bloom.
Beautiful - what kind of brushes are you using? Greetings from Melbourne 😊
Thank you! This is great! Are you a member of WSV? WSV is celebrating 50th anniversary this year and preparing an amazing exhibition at VAS (local and international artists), but I'll do a video and proper advertising next week. Please come to see. In re brushes: at the moment mostly NEEF mops (Seniors Art Supplies store).
@@nvfineartstudio7296 Hi I am not a member, maybe at a later stage. Very shortly I am going overseas and coming back on the 24 June. I need to buy a brush for smaller details which one would you recommend. Thank you for your advice 🙏😊
