A tip for using tape: stick it to your clothes before sticking it onto the paper to avoid ripping the paper when you remove it :) • Edit: I do use masking tape
4:13 you can also use a watercolor pencil, when applying the water color, the liquid can dissolve the outline as you're coloring. - Always happy to help! Thanks for the likes!
Lmao I use $1 kids watercolour pallete, an old makeup brush and a $1 sketchbook its not great but hey. Like I literally just dip the brush into water and wipe it on my trousers to get the paint off
I use really cheap, basic art supplies, because I don't want to waste money on anything I don't use regularly. I'm not a professional artist, or even an art student, and I like the results so it's great.
The last one about not drawing too heavy lines doesn't apply to lots and lots of people. I do linework with black fineliners before I even start painting at all and prefer to have a good ground of pensil to do linework from. It's another style, more "cartoony" if you will, but certainly not a "don't". It's an effect that many artists use. Just thought I should tell people.
I did say that it can still look good. It's a don't as in don't use a grey writing pencil harshly, because after you also won't be able to erase it, which is what some beginner might end up thinking to do. watercolour on that kind of pencil looks very different comparing to black fine liners. I never said don't to fineliners and stuff, only the writing pencils harshly. For a beginner, that is a don't if they're going for a more realistic type of painting.
I agree it's a style and it's one that could look nice however like they said they did point out that it doesn't look ugly, I'm sure a lot of people would watch this not being very good at art who would benefit from being told to erase the lines as newer folk like myself who haven't found a style appreciates seeing all the techniques :)
I outline a lot of my work, and even then the don't use a pencil harshly still applies. I can't erase pencil if it's too harsh. This tip can still apply to those who outline their work in black fineliners.
Monica Shantel Agreed. I am a drawer but just started painting. All of my art is sketched in pencil, lined in ink and then pencil erased before painting.
If you plan it in your painting it'll be a really cool effect! Maybe as a background on a card or just lots of different patterns that get dried out. These "don'ts" are more of a "if you do this you get this effect". Sometimes you WANT the "don't" effect!! There's no right or wrong in art. Just planed or non-planed.
Yeah I feel like the toilet paper left marks that could be used to suggest lace or other detailed fabrics! “Don’t”s can def be used if that’s what effect you want, but that’s why art is about learning the rules AND how to break them!
Personally i do agree with most of your tips but i was surprised at the "outlining for flower" portion as there are artists out there which adds black outlines (using ink pens) to their drawing then colour their picture xD but to be fair maybe your technique is towards realistic art which does not have harsh outlines. Really enjoyed the video!
Yes those are more like illustrations, and also outlining with ink pens or pen aftwards isn't wrong, the wrong part I am showing is if you see pencil marks specifically. In realistic or not art, we never see pencIl marks. I'm glad you like it!
Regarding dark outlines... some artists actually go for that effect, so depending on what you are painting it's not wrong to go for dark outline. Heck, some people even ink the outlines before colouring with watercolours. I've started doing that and it's actually kinda nice to combine them
For the outlines tip at the end - I would recommend using water colour pencils as close to the colour you will be painting in, this way once you paint it will fade and blend in. Also makes fixing any mistakes a little easier.....
Very helpful! It is difficult to find just straight forward “do this, don’t do that” tutorials. I just wish you had used darker color for your font choice, it’s a little hard on the eyes trying to read white on such a light background..... I hope you more of these!!!!
I used to love making art all the time. I was pretty good at drawing and coloring with pencils and other paints, but watercolor was the bane of my existence, cause I simply wasn't taught properly. I was recently given a watercolor set from a friend and decided I should revisit and refine the skill. Looking over this quick tips of do's and don't, I'm actually excited to get to work. Simply wonderful. ❤
This video actually helped quite a lot, I already knew you were supposed to use tape but I’m not too experienced with water colour paints and I want to make art with them more
I am a young artist, I watched this vid and I helped me a lot, I did realize I was doing some things wrong and some things right, thanks for the video it really helps !!
What type of tape should I use? I've been using masking tape and I keep tearing the paper on the edges ;-; also I'm sorry but I have to be a cheap scrub and keep using non watercolour paper. :')
Michelle -dono You can use craft tape but you can still use masking tape! A little tip: use a hair dryer to help you peel off the masking tape It will stop the tape from ripping your paper 👍
Michelle -dono try sticking the tape to a piece of fabric a few times before putting it on your paper. That would get some of the stickiness so your paper wouldnt get ripped
whatever the tape you will use just place it on your hand for a while then stick on the paper that way it wont tear it. i tried that once and it worked. another thing you could tape it from the back so if anything got teared it wont show on the work
First time for me to watercolor. Wanted to do it for years. Finally decided to try but didn't want to spend an arm and leg not knowing if I would like it. So I brought a school grade watercolor set, $1.96, and a 4 pack of brushes for $2.96. I have been amazed at the ability of being able to blend colors with this set. A few more practice pics then I will probably invest in better supplies. But it has worked for me to learn techniques and basics. Love watercoloring!
A tip for picking up paint, instead of using a paper towel you can just use your brush instead by cleaning it in water and pinching it to dry it then it will absorb the paint back onto the brush when you touch it to the painted area and that saves the risk of leaving marks on the paint and it looks more natural and part of the painting
Dear Ahmad art- Back, back, back, in the day , when I learned to paint watercolours in the 1970's ..we were taught to STRETCH the paper- this is where you completely wet the paper and attach it to your boards with white packing tape and let it dry FIRST. Usually at least overnight. This way the paper has completely shrunk to its final preportions already, and so does not stretch much and of course is held firmly in place and dries again to its perfect size. the final difference is subtle but tremendous. Thank you for making me feel knowledgeable :) sometimes its great getting old. :))
For Paper you van also use a "blok" of paper (not sure what it's called). The sides are glued to each other, which has the same result as adding tape. When the piece is dry you just use a knife to go around the edges and cut the glue in between the layers of paper
I just started taking watercolor classes from someone here in the area he’s been teaching for about 30 years, so I was glad to see you that he was teaching me some of the really practical techniques that you are using; take the paper down and less I’m looking for dark lines go ahead and only sketch and lightly, that sort of thing (he uses that painters tape because it’s so low adhesive that when you pull it off it doesn’t mark the paper at all). What I would love to see, even on Some of the older videos, is changing the print font to black; it’s really difficult to read through that when the font is white. Other than that I’m enjoying the daylights out of these!
Much good information here, but please let me stress that using 100% cotton 'rag' paper will make it MUCH easier to control the water, get smooth washes/blends of colors, and allow you to scrub out and correct mistakes. Paper is THE most important thing, along with learning water control. Painting on cheaper "student-grade" paper will make watercolor far, far harder. 100% cotton paper (Arches, Fabriano, Lanaquarelle, etc) is expensive, but worth every nickel. I've been teaching Beginner Watercolor for 13 years, and it's the one thing I insist on for my students. (They always fight me...but then they try both and agree.)
Very true, arches are amazing. What I use is canson 140lb I've done commissions and serious work on it. Where arches and others may be very good, canson isn't bad, it is good for beginners. However paper is very important I agree with you !
Great tips! If someone though cannot afford those expensive brands, I would recommend that they try the Fabriano sample sheets. Its a pack of 12 different papers that can mostly be used for watercolor. They have different weights, can either be hot press, cold press or rough etc. They are super affordable which is great if someone wants to test which paper they like best Hope this helps :)
But the last one isn’t accurate, if you’re going for realism, then do what’s on the right. If you want to be more cartoony, do what’s on the left of the last watercolor tip.
The paper towel trick reminded me of clouds x3 I am probably going to use that trick to make a painting for my room! Thank you for the tips, this really helped me out~
When i first used water color i didnt know what i was doing and fail miserably and when i learned how to water color i slapped my face on how bad i messed up So the moral of the story know how to watercolor before doing it
wispical dream: Isn’t that kind of like saying don’t start something unless you’re already good at it?? Or worse still, don’t test new techniques or unfamiliar territory. That would be pretty poor advice to 100% of artists and art students alike. It would leave the world with no art.
@@rayray8687 sorry about that I was really stupid at the time I think what I was trying to say at the time was you should watch a quick video or read the instructions about it so you know how to use it (I was and still am really stupid lmao)
Also a tip for blending, when you first put the colour down and wanna blend that colour out, take ur brush and wipe it down with paper towel so it’s a little dry, then take that brush and go back to your drawing and use the brush like a shading tool. It will help out the colour look gradually blended and not just dark and then to light.
Awesome! Thanks! I am just starting to learn watercolor! I have used acrylics pretty much my whole art career and a little oil, but never tried watercolor and I decided to start today! lol These were all very helpful! Thanks! :)
I have a few questions, if you don't mind me asking. Will washing tape work for taping the edges of the paper? Is it most suitable to use watercolour paper from a pad or a watercolour journal? I'm currently wanting to do watercolour in a journal, designed specifically for watercolour. However, does it have the same affects?
ferne moohni yes it will, especially considering the adhesive isn’t as strong as clear tape or such things. I’ve used Washi tape in the past (I use painters tape now). I’ve been doing watercolour for about 5 years now.
oh this is so cool,i should have found this video before i tried painting on my own...i will definitely use your tips the next time i try using watercolor paint again
uh ok not if your phone is low on data and the picture isnt hd...its pretty hard to read. i wouldnt say that to be mean... plus my screen is tiny..so had black letters been used...id be able to guess at least what was being written in fuzzy words...rather than white blobs on white background...
I like hard pencil lines under my watercolor paintings, is it bad for realistic drawings? I think my pics look okay but every TH-cam vid says not to draw hard lol
if harsh line are a part of your style then it's absolutely fine! it's a "don't" if you don't want the lines to be shown in the final painting. there are no actual rules in art
The last advice is unspecified. If somebody need to have thick outline because of their art style it isn't wrong to do dark outline. However, it's nice video ;)
Thank you so much for this. I am a beginner in watercolor painting and i am having trouble controlling the water to infuse in my brush. Any more brush tips you can provide? Thank you!!
I saw a technique for lightening your lines that works really well. I suffer from drawing my lines over and over until I have the right one, then I erase the rest. But then to keep the lines I need to see, I make my kneadable eraser into a cylinder, and roll other across the page, pushing down as I roll. It pulls up the excess graphite, without totally getting rid of the lines I need. They also aren't visible under the paint ^-^.
This is a very informative video... After seeing some if my Favorite TH-camrs. Show off their waterpainting skills. I'm almost ready to give it a shot... One of these days. As I bought some cheap ones to start off with 😁 "Thanks for sharing!"
Hello! I have a doubt about the brush we use , Should we always use round brush or else we can use flat one too? Thank u for ur wonderfull tips! Love it :)
I have to get good at watercolor in two days, so this is really helpful. (I've never used watercolor before today, and I'm terrible ar painting in general.
Thank you very much it helped me alot. Because when i started to paint for my first time on those kind of papers i put to much water on it and painted and it looke ugly. Well i was a beginner after all but now i understand. TY

Morgan Nederlof thx so much I was having that problem!
Thanks so much, it makes stuff so much easier
omg thank you
Thanks I ripped my “masterpiece” before your tip
Thanks! ^-^
4:13 you can also use a watercolor pencil, when applying the water color, the liquid can dissolve the outline as you're coloring. - Always happy to help! Thanks for the likes!
True! :)
And an eraser if fine after painting
I have watercolor pencils
Never though of that but now that I'm reading it, it seems so obvious ! Thanks for the tip :)
I was going to say this!!
I got a watercolor set - paints, brushes, paper, then realized that I don't know where to begin. I loved your video. So helpful. Thank you.
Lmao I use $1 kids watercolour pallete, an old makeup brush and a $1 sketchbook its not great but hey. Like I literally just dip the brush into water and wipe it on my trousers to get the paint off

I actually liked the marks the toilet paper left haha
Coratison me too!!
Coratison toilet paper can be used as a gradient when watercolor painting

Great video! Just found your channel and subscribed! :)
I just bought canson 140lb paper and i'm honestly in love with it lmao
Nice video, helped a lot😊👍👍
Very helpful tips, thanks for sharing with everyone! Happy painting!
I like hard pencil lines under my watercolor paintings, is it bad for realistic drawings? I think my pics look okay but every TH-cam vid says not to draw hard lol
Alanna Jimenez I’d say not to use it for realistic drawings and things in real life don’t have outlines.
if harsh line are a part of your style then it's absolutely fine! it's a "don't" if you don't want the lines to be shown in the final painting. there are no actual rules in art
You have to do what feels right and comfortable for you. It’s your art:)
What brush are you using? I really like how well it picks up color and how smooth it spreads on paper....
The last advice is unspecified. If somebody need to have thick outline because of their art style it isn't wrong to do dark outline. However, it's nice video ;)
Wow so wonderful~~This is the best I’ve seen lately 💗🥰🎉💗😊🎄💗
Wait, you're supposed to add water to the paper????
*I never knew that*
haha me too
The technique is called wet on wet and it has some very cool effects but its not always necessary
@@brianapyle7731 Oh! Cool, thank you :)
No problemo
Lol me too
Watercolours are a good way of expressing paintings.

It is weird to observe people when using their dominant hand to see whether or not they are left handed?
Thank you so much for this. I am a beginner in watercolor painting and i am having trouble controlling the water to infuse in my brush. Any more brush tips you can provide? Thank you!!
I did each one of these mistakes and kept wandering why my paintings are ugly lol thanks alote
this was really helpful and the way you set up the video and edited it was great too! Thank You!
Me: *watches video*
Also me: does these things again
I saw a technique for lightening your lines that works really well. I suffer from drawing my lines over and over until I have the right one, then I erase the rest. But then to keep the lines I need to see, I make my kneadable eraser into a cylinder, and roll other across the page, pushing down as I roll. It pulls up the excess graphite, without totally getting rid of the lines I need. They also aren't visible under the paint ^-^.
Youre great
