Let me know if you liked this tutorial and don't forget to give the video a thumbs up, it really helps my channel grow - thank you so much!
I was just painting a sea bookmark... thank 😊 you for sharing this!!! I love to see videos of beaches... I'm in love with Kyanance Cove in Cornwall!!! Looks like tropical water!
I just found your videos and I’m enjoying and learning so much. Thank you.
Thanks for watching Nadine!
Definitely enjoying your 3 Tips videos. Always filled with lots of ways to succeed at painting different details and I’m learning about how to mix up my colors each time. Thanks for sharing this 😊.
Great to hear!
Super helpful - I'm about to move to Cornwall!
Looking forward to the full video ☺️
Thank you for sharing your knowledge to help others succeed. Very attractive hairstyle. 🙋♀️💜
I use birthday cake candles as they are much smaller and manageable
Thank you.
I am always happy when you post a new video, you can't imagine the smile on my face 💜💜💜Thank you
You are so kind :-)
Love this idea!!!!
Very Helpful tips, thank you very much, especially the tip how to adjust the water color with the primary. 😊
Thanks for watching!
Thank you Michelle. Another easy to follow and informative tutorial!
Like, Like, Like ! Always so informative.
Thank you! Cheers!
Love this! And for those of you reading this, Michele’s shadow set is absolutely the best thing I have purchased since I started watercolors three months ago. After spending a fortune several years ago buying pastels in colors I never used , I was determined
not to fall into the trap of ordering a roomful of paints…only what I need. But I had so much trouble getting natural looking shadows that I decided to give these a try. I have now ordered her floral set and cannot wait to get it. You will not be sorry. Thanks Michele!!!
Excellent tutorial. Thanks for the tip on using pink to tone down green.
Any time!
I love these three tips videos Michele. Thx very much. 🥰
Glad you like them!
Thank you Michele
Any time!
Excellent as usual. I find candle wax more natural for sea. Masking fluid as you said does sometimes leave hard edges. Love your videos. X
Thanks for watching!
4:06 - tip
"British sea" 🤣🤣 and only in "certain areas"? You have to get on a plane to find sea looking anything other than your British sea 🤭🤣. Love your videos Michele, you know how to break down the techniques that matter. Thank you 🙏💖
This series is great! Thanks so much!
Beautiful ❤️ I've never tried candle wax so far, but you convinced me, I'm going to try and post the results on our lovely fb group
Wonderful!
Hi Michele. Water is something that I struggle with, and I expect that even trained artists like you didn't find it an easy technique, so thank you for this tutorial.
I'd like to ask what pthalo is, or means, please. I've tried to find out but no luck so far, and it's now more a frustration than a mere curiosity. It's in my paints and pencils, also in green, but no other colours that I can see.
If you ever get to the north-west of Scotland, or west Wales and Cornwall, you'll find some beautiful sea colours, greens and purples, as well as blues, and really bright sandy beaches.
Anyway, as you were...😃
Just back from Egypt, beautiful blue sea there, clear with many stunning fishes! Phthalo is short for Phthalocyanine, it's basically telling you that this is a colour with a particular chemical composition. Like most chemicals (and remember, natural minerals are chemicals too, all things are chemicals) it has different variations and produces a range of colours, most commonly vibrant greens and blues. If you put the word into wikipedia you will find out more.
@@IntheStudiowithMicheleWebber thank you so much, I'll do that very thing! I keep forgetting about the upsides of the internet.....
Egypt, how lovely! I hope you had a great holiday!
very good tips
Thanks a lot :-)
Hiya Michele, thanks very much for another really interested video. I always love seeing your techniques and tips which are always great to add into a painting arsenal.🎨♥️
Glad it was helpful!
Your tips are always so helpful!
I'm so glad!

Would a white Crayola crayon work just as well as the candle?
It will work, just be a little more opaque.
@@IntheStudiowithMicheleWebber Thanks!
I like the candke wax the best i know youve used white crayon also but do you find the candle wax works better for water spray or white crayon??? I have used candles but most are vanillia scented kinda beige woyld that affect the paper color do u possibly have a video on using colored candkes on watercolor paper to show affect of water color sittingvontop of say a red candle rubbing is that to much like ecaustic painting or is ecaustic just in melted form while i kinda fine thise painting to look at the smell of ecaustic painting while applying makes me nauseous id have to get a serious face respirator to even want to experiment which is like dry pastels not for me...altho i do like the mettalic pastels crayons( blocks?) From sennliar from france i read the warnings im like nope ...lol...but they look awesome...ill just admire painters works in books and on line who do they techniques...mikelle art mom🎨✍👩🎨
Candle is more invisible but you can use a white crayon or white oil pastel. And yes you can use colours for example yellow or orange will give a sunset coloured sparkle.
Water. I always struggle with illustrating water.
your basically using a form of resist crayon right?
Yes I am :-)
I didn't get to watch you live only 3 hours late. My question is, can the jury award more money than what JD is asking? I know it can be less but can it be more?
Water isn’t always blue. If it’s a cloudy sky, it would be dark grey.
That's true :-)
