I laughed when Keenan said he was the youngest of nine and still gets teased. I'm the OLDEST of nine homeschooled siblings and I still dish it to my siblings. Sarcasm is our love language! My sisters and I get together and love doing your tutorials as a fun project because all of our varying artistic abilities can accomplish and enjoy them :)
Sarah, You really are one of my most favorite watercolor teachers. I love your pledge before starting. 😉 It’s great! And I love that you work in important points, like complimentary colors on the color wheel. Your hummingbird really is gorgeous! I can’t wait to try it! 😃 I’ve never taken an art class, but I did get to go to two watercolor workshops. She taught us in a very controlled method that was NOT loose at all! She worked with a lot of detail. So, this is new to me, but I’m sure going to try it. It looks like so much fun! We had a hummer fly into our garage years ago, and he was flying into things while trying to get back out. He was a danger to himself for that reason. The only way to help him was to catch him. So we did...gently...with a fishing net that happened to be there. I had the privilege of holding him for just a couple of minutes, while he rested up. He felt like he didn’t weigh anything at all! My boys were thrilled! We quickly carried him out and I simply lifted my arm, opened my hand, and allowed him to fly away. What a blessing! God gave me that gift as an encouragement when I truly needed it. I’ll never forget it! He loves us so much! God bless you and your dear little family. And God bless Keenan! He’s great! Jacqui
I found you on TH-cam a couple months ago , don’t drive anymore so have found your teaching and banter a blessing , am enjoying painting along and almost think there are people here keep going congratulations on coming baby
I have just bought some liquid inks, so getting used to them whilst following along feeling like a beginner again! loved doing this one. I love watching and listening to your banter with Keenan. brilliant channel for all abilities.
This was so much fun to watch! Thank you for letting us follow you and providing the sketch for free!! I really appreciate that. Your colors are so beautiful.
Thank you for the worksheet so I can paint along. I always like to watch your watercolor tutorials, I always learn something and you guys keep me laughing.
I used to live on the west coast and had hummingbirds all over my feeders too. I just love those colorful little beauties. Thanks again for a great demo. Will have to get that one too!
I love how fluid and forgiving this is!! I am new to the group on FB and this is the first video I have watched and I can’t wait to dive into watercolor with my daughter! Thank you for this great video ! I will have to check out your website! Thank you
I have been watching you for a while and I am really enjoyed your segments. But today I’d like to paint along with you, painting the hummingbird but my drawing is terrible. You mentioned you gave the drawings free how can I get this one. You were so talented I thought I could follow along with you I could become better. Thank you
I was super behind on doing my watercolor boxes but I am slowly catching up! I realized too late that this box didn’t include the hummingbird supplies, so I am trying it without the reference photo. It’s definitely a lot more difficult for me but I love testing my skills out! Love you Sarah and Keenan!

...about the whole white shirt / blue towel laundry thing.... that's why many laundry detergents are blue! also, fun fact, in offset lithography (CMYK printing press) we always added 30% cyan to our blacks to create rich black. OH, and if you are old enough to remember (ehem!) FUJI film added a "4th color layer" to their camera film that was cyan to make an amature photographer have nice rich color photos!
You can also wear a blue-tinted lipgloss to make your teeth appear whiter! Same concept as washing the blue towel with your white shirt to make it look whiter!

It’s called “bluing”. Like what the old ladies use on their hair. I am a vet tech and a groomer. I used bluing everyday on white dogs to make their white coats whiter. It’s actually made for white laundry.
I hate seeing all that paint going away that's why I hate cleaning my pallets especially if it's watercolors and it could be wet and used. So I will use different types of pallets with different color schemes to make sure I don't have to wash any I'll just use those colors when I need them
Yes we are! Because once you read Outlander (all 8 books....9 books?) then you will start at the beginning and read them again! The audiobook is great too.....and the show.
fyi, you need to clean your hummingbird feeders everyday because they develop bacteria, that when ingested by the bird, will cause their tongues to become protruded and they are unable to draw it back in and they will die of starvation.
So beautiful. My favorite bird.❤

Thank you for going into the values, I’m new to watercolor, and it’s definitely different to acrylic
Glad it was helpful!
Yes it was! Do you have a page for your work on Instagram?
Yay a fellow homeschooler and youngest of a big family! 😊
Thankyou for mentioning the Hummingbird nectar. Plain white sugar, 1 cup to 4 cups water. The premade red stuff is bad for them.
I have been watching you for a while and I am really enjoyed your segments. But today I’d like to paint along with you, painting the hummingbird but my drawing is terrible.

I love your tutorials. Thank you for the hydrus equivalent as I have those and like to match colors.

Keenan-“And We Danced” by The Hooters! I love that song!
Is this a Louise DeMasi tutorial? It looks fun!
Very pretty

In the old days we used "bluing" for white clothes. It came in a bottle and was added to the laundry water :)
A few of our team members can remember doing this.
I remember those days so clearly, our brand was Robin Blue. A thick blue liquid for our whites. 😛
Hi - went to the website, but I don't see buttons that say "outline" or "no outline" - it looks like I have to buy a kit to get the outline.

Awesome. From Wisconsin👍
How do I get the reference drawing
I've searched for the sketch of the hummingbird as I didn't order the kit. Can you help me find it?

Liquid Blue is a thing - for white clothes :)
It’s called “bluing”. Like what the old ladies use on their hair. I am a vet tech and a groomer. I used bluing everyday on white dogs to make their white coats whiter. It’s actually made for white laundry.
What liquid paints do you use?
Dandelion paints! They are exclusive to Let's Make Art.
How do you determine where to start and the steps?
Cathy, Sarah maps all her steps out at the very beginning!
As a lefter I always raise my left hand!
What pens are you outlining with?
Sarah advises using a felt tipped pen to avoid having your lines too dark.
i love how there's no dislikes
Hard to dislike such sweet little hummingbird!
I’ve never used water colors...fun!

I hate seeing all that paint going away that's why I hate cleaning my pallets especially if it's watercolors and it could be wet and used. So I will use different types of pallets with different color schemes to make sure I don't have to wash any I'll just use those colors when I need them
couldn't download the PDF. Is it me or is there a problem?
It looks like it is working on our end. Try it from this link: www.letsmakeart.com/products/hummingbird-outline
You are so underrated--
Thank you for tuning in! We appreciate your support! :)
Hummingbirds are the only bird with teeth.
dinna fash yourself lass, we are all unofficially Scottish after reading the Outlander series.
Agreed!
Yes we are! Because once you read Outlander (all 8 books....9 books?) then you will start at the beginning and read them again! The audiobook is great too.....and the show.
Does anyone else draw their own templates???
I got a heart! Thank you!!
fyi, you need to clean your hummingbird feeders everyday because they develop bacteria, that when ingested by the bird, will cause their tongues to become protruded and they are unable to draw it back in and they will die of starvation.
