Your ability to transfer your knowledge in a way that is helpful to others is appreciated.... I have only watched a few of your tutorials and only just discovered your tutorials on technique....am soooo grateful for this...as I said before I believe the universe gives what you need when you need it most
Love the way you address the psychological issues in regards to art making. I have been confronting with 3 issues lately: lack of patience, fear of failure and lack of motivation/purpose. It all accentuated after being approached by an ice-cream shop to create illustrations for their labels, but they kept complaining about the economy when they heard mynprice quotes. I am lucky that my husband makes enough to sustain the household and I can continue being an artist, but this quick and cheap mentality the world has right now is affecting art as well. I just want to get it done quickly, which prevents me from doing more elaborate work.
Yes, I get it! And I'm totally for fast work, but I agree there can sometimes be a very special and unique quality to art that was made patiently, with a lot of thought and care. Have you ever made such a painting? If you have, it can help to remember what it was like, what it felt like and what you felt / thought about the result. By visiting that place mentally, it can help you get there again. I hope this helps 😊🙏🏼 The world is going very fast, it's our challenge to sometimes go slower courageously and with purpose.
Thank you 😊🙏🏼 It's why I love painting boats, whether they're in the water or on land - they always have this beautiful way of connecting to their shadows 😁🎨
hey Liron, I have followed along many of your paintings but I always struggle to find good photo inspiration to paint something original. Can you share some tips on how to pick right photo? perhaps where to find it too?
I actually have a video about choosing good reference photos, and also editing bad ones to be easier to paint 😁 You can watch it here: th-cam.com/video/-q4io0Z15eU/w-d-xo.html Also, I'll copy from another comment I replied to - I have 3 main sources: 1. WetCanvas Image Library (it's loads of images that are meant for painting) 2. Pixabay - a website with lots of images (but a lot of them are very "bright" and saturated, so it can take time to find things that look more natural and suitable for painting. 3. The MOST IMPORTANT source - pictures I take myself (: Whenever you see something nice - snap a pic! It really accumulates over time, and you'll always have something to paint. And this one in particular is from #1 - the WetCanvas forum image library. Let me know if this helped! 😊🙏🏼
Thanks for adding the time stamps. I watched the video from beginning to end, but I might come back and try to paint along. The time stamps will be helpful. I do have a question Liron. You used the Shin Han white. Since it's opaque I wondered if it is still a real watercolor, or if it's a gouache. If it is truly an opaque white watercolor, do you know if any other brands have one as well?
Thank you Carol 😊🙏🏼 I'm so happy the time stamps help! I plan on using them as much as possible in the future. Regarding the Shin Han Jaune Brilliant - it's simply an opaque watercolor (of their PWC line). It's not a gouache paint. Opaque watercolor aren't fully opaque (I assume that even straight out of the tube - they won't be as opaque as gouache - though I may be mistaken). But they are a little opaque, at the very least. Plenty of brands will have more and less opaque paints (but some brands do market themselves as transparent on purpose, as some desire that from watercolors, which is understandable). Be sure to check out different brands' brochures (you can probably find most online), and look for paints with a square icon that's full - these are usually the opaque paints (: You can find Daniel Smith's here: danielsmith.com/brochures-and-color-charts/ I hope this helps!
I also recommend going over the videos in this Playlist (my videos): th-cam.com/video/UN-XnKQ17I0/w-d-xo.html It's mostly beginners' techniques and exercises. Some may be more advanced so feel free to skip those (: And above all - practice a lot! You need to get used to how water and paint work together.

Thank you 😊🙏🏼 I usually use WetCanvas and Pixabay, but you can also search google in particles for LARGE images. Then you click on the image you want from the results, and then right click and choose - open image in new tab, and then you can save it. But the key is to search for large images.

The shadow is really nice. Love your way of connecting it to the boat.
Thank you 😊🙏🏼

@@LironYan Thanks Liron for reply. :)
Great idea. I do have trouble getting overwhelmed trying to put in too much.
Don't we all
Haha I get it! 😁 That's how I came up with this idea.
I hope this helps to alleviate some of that 🙏🏼
Thanks for sharing Liron, always great vids 👍👍
Thank you Dave! 😊🙏🏼
Your such a wonderfull artist bro, your work help me to use use different dark colour(i am very lazy artist😊😊)
Nicely done. I think that maybe gouache would be a nice in between, between watercolor and and oil.
I should definitely try it at some point! (:
I don't mind mixing different media, especially if they're both water-based 🎨

Hey Liron! What videos do you recommend watching for beginner watercolors?
Alan Owen is a good start and Patrick Lee Greaves is also good for learning 😉
Get some colour in your life DaveLowe ok thanks

Pyrrol Scarlet 😁 One of my favs!
Liron Yanconsky big thanks. Have you a supplies list?
How do you find your references, Liron? Just google “boats” or something like that?
