This is so beautiful. I’m restarting watercolor painting after like 20 years. Horses are a favorite subject. And the mixing of browns did make a big difference.
Never thought I'd paint a horse but now I'm so motivated to do it. Every single video of yours offers so much of learning for new artist. Thank you!!!....a million times for being a wonderful & generous teacher
I was trying to estimate how many artists you have helped "create" out there in the world at large (blame a university professor for this, but it is helpful, a good party trick and surprisingly accurate). I came up with approximately 128,000 new artists on Planet Earth! Amazing, isn't it?! If you ever get discouraged and think all your hard work is for naught, just think of those 128,000 (no joke) budding artists who searched high and low (as I did) on TH-cam and elsewhere for free watercolor instruction and only found so-called teachers who did not teach, but teased, and realize that you are among the few in a public forum who are doing good. Okay, I'll stop now; I see you blushing from the other side of that globe and I will apologize because I also know you don't like that. I'm not a horse person (dogs=love) and probably will never paint this because I'm backed up like crazy now, but who knows. As usual, you make it look so easy! Well, it IS a beautiful process to watch those colors blend on the paper; I LOVE that process you've taught us. Stay yourself, girl; we love you!!
You're a swetheart Vickie. Thank you so much for your lovely message. I really appreciate it. Today is my birthday so it was extra special to read it. I'm not much of a horse person either. I've never been inclined to paint one but I was asked quite a few times to paint one so I relented. Have a lovely weekend. 😘
@@LouiseDeMasi HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!!! I don't even REMEMBER what it felt like to turn 30 -- or whatever, lol! I know you had a good one, look forward to seeing you on Patreon!
Absolutely. I agree wholeheartedly with your comment and imagine how many more artists she has helped in the year since your comment. I love Louise, she is a fantastic teacher and I want to paint horses. I've love birds and she has helped me tremendously. 😊
You are such a great teacher! Your videos are really helpful and clear . I’ve scoured the internet for good videos to teach me watercolor and you are the only person who’s taught me well!
Belated happy birthday. I am a big fan and really appreciate all the work you do and offer for free to poor folks like me who get by on a disability pension. God bless your generosity and your kind, giving spirit. Thank you.
Louise you did an amazing painting of the horse! The different browns that you did was so important and it brought the horse to life. Thank you for sharing all this information. Helene❤
I am SO glad you explained the photo at the start of the video. That's why I am here, to see if YOU commented on it because I didn't hear Sarah say anything about it and I was wondering how that happened. I figured it was a photo reference thing but, nice to hear it explained AND to actually see the original photo. You ALL did amazing work on this, especially you if w.c isn't your usual media. Have a great day😁
Could you please do a video on how you do your under drawing? Like the process of how you transfer the pencil drawing to the paper, how/if you trace it from the reference, what pencil you use, how you blow the reference image to the size you need, etc. Pleaseee!
I love the softnest in the eye, I hope I will be able to do the same, at least for the eye, that is what gives it such a beautiful and deep look! It will be a challenge but I will fallow the video on patreon! Thanks so much! 😊🙏💐
Your vids are always a treat. PLEASE please can you teach us how to add glow to any subject! A window or small group of grapes to get us started. Getting the glow is such an elusive technique. Thank you very much!!!
Louise you have been such an inspiration to me and my artwork has improved greatly because of your generous tutorial videos. Thank you so much! You are truly appreciated.
Just finished watching this - I was not disappointed! Look forward to the longer version - tho it will be awhile before I can attempt detail . . something to look forward to, so much to anticipate! Thank you Louise!
Oh thank you, thank you Louise! I so want to paint a horse properly - I bought a book and am very disappointed with the images . . . So I am thrilled you are doing one. I shall watch later on Saturday as my son is due to help with my garden! What a treat to look forward to. Have a great weekend with the family.
This is one of the most powerful demonstrations of the difference between paintings made with colours straight from the tube verses and hand-mixed palette that I have seen. The colour is so much more vibrant and this is true even if using a more opaque medium. There is a cohesion that using premixed colour can't give you and generally, you don't get that stunning pigment separation that adds so much luminosity. Nice one, Louise.
Oh Louise! You are the very best. I've been missing for a while and WOW, I need some Louise in my life. The colors you mixed are gorgeous. The painting really does glow. Thank you for another wonderful video!
Excellent video, Louise. I love your 3 primary choices for this gorgeous horse. . I will be putting this painting on my "next up" project. Love your out takes.
Excellent work! The color mixology plus your skill made that beautimous horsey (horsie). Ok. I'll be serious. That is beautiful. Your mastery of those colors resulted in some truly beautiful browns. I love the colors brown, green and purple. Those three colors result in some great landscapes but are useful for animal paintings as well. Very useful for some birdies. Ok. Burds. No? Birds. I use the purple mainly for creating shadows and in shading. Get it right it's really nice. Don't get it right and...well...if you need some paper for starting a fire you have it 😫 I still love the last few minutes of your vids. Some call it bloopers. I call it sheer comedic genius. Oh yes. Yes I do. I do indeed.
@@scarz1951 well I'm not always right and I'm not a mind reader. But I'm just guessing that if you were trying to deliberately spell bird in a lot of different ways that were not normal, you would miss Byrds because it actually was the name of a band. I may be reaching, but since it was an actual word of sorts, maybe it didn't qualify as a misspelling. I'm probably overthinking. People always tell me I do that.
Beautiful painting and subject. I love horses, i used to draw them all the time when i was younger, i have never tried painting them. I really want to try watercoloring, the effects that you can get are amazing. P.s. i love your little bloopers at the end, so cute and funny.💕
Love your version so much! Looking forward to trying it this way. As soon as I saw the thumbnail I though "hey, that horse looks familiar", and it's because the kit I bought from Let's Make Art included this horse. :) I watched how Taylor and Sarah did theirs with the colored pencils, but I haven't tried that yet. I would much rather paint it the way you demonstrated! Thanks for showing how you mixed the browns. I'm a watercolor novice so am only just learning how to mix my own colors, so the demo is much appreciated. Hope your birthday was a wonderful day for you!
😳😳😳😳👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻😱😱😱😱😱😱😱 Wwwuuuooooouuuu increíble!!! Gracias gracias gracias mil gracias por el tutorial ❤️❤️❤️❤️🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻😍😍😍 Que talento!! Maravilloso Louis!!! Y que le sucede a la gente?? Den las gracias y dejen su like genteeeeee!!!!
You always put a smile on my face Louise. Love the horse, mind you I was already doing one...sad to say yours didnt look anything like mine 🤭🤭🤭🤭 or should that be the other way around..😊..Im doomed to failure with animals and people....but I will perservere.....as usual I love both your old and new versions..just beautiful. Happy New Year to you and your hubby. Hope you weren't impacted by the cyclone/floods.... May 2022 bring all good things to you...like your studio🤗🥰🤗🥰 cheers from WA.
I think when TH-cam first started there was a 5 star rating system, so you could hit 5 stars if they still had that. It seems like it would be more accurate.
Hello Louise, So love watching your tutorials, beautiful painting of the horse & finding out how you mix your colors…love it.. I haven’t got Windsor green so am wondering what would be the closest green color to Windsor? I have many greens trying to use what I have if possible. Thank you Louise for these amazing videos & for the time & effort which I am sure you would put into doing so. 😊
Did you put a light pink (permanent alizarin crimson) wash on the muzzle? It looks pinkish. 💐, Mixing your own browns really does make a noticible difference. It goes from a flat painting to something quite vibrant and alive. Very nice. Thank you. (I've made a mental note to give more attention to mixing colors.) 😊
what great teacher, humble enough to put in bloopers, brilliant, what a lady
I love that you painted a horse. Thank you for painting a horse. You should paint more horses!!!!
This is so beautiful. I’m restarting watercolor painting after like 20 years. Horses are a favorite subject. And the mixing of browns did make a big difference.
Your bloopers make me laugh right out loud. Keep them coming. Thank you. You are such a natural in front of the camera.

Thank you Lulis.
Dear Louise, you and your work are so lovely~!!!
Very competent painting and deadpan.
Thank you for sharing your knowledge and talent! The late Diane Maxey loved to glaze with yellow. Fabulous job, as horses are notoriously difficult!
Thanks very much Joy.
Beautiful horse painting. I will give it a go.
A very interesting video Louise, as I'm colour blind I struggle to mix my own shades for watercolour painting.
Thank you.
Wow, your work is absolutely gorgeous Louise, it frustrates me 😆 Hope you're all well down under.
Lol- thanks John. All is well here thank you. I hope you are well too!
Absolutely beautiful
Perfect. Thank you for sharing your talent!
Charming ending!
So looking forward to painting this horse from a second artists instruction! I think it’ll be a great learning experience.
I hope so too! Thank you.
You are awesome. No words to Describe your talent ❤️❤️❤️❤️
And yet another WONDERFUL video! Can't wait for entire tut on patreon! Hugs!
Your preparatory painting was already beautiful. Thank you for another great tutorial
Thank you Melanie.

it's Byrds of course. I love the outtakes too. I'm glad some people are including them because then we know none of us are perfect.
@@recoveringsoul755 Of course. How could I have forgotten them?

Loved this, I have great difficulty with browns, but hay fever symptoms and little bloopers, now full of confidence. Beautiful horse!
This is stunning. What an amazing, sharing artist you are. Your colour mixes exquisite. Thank you.
Thanks Meredith.
Your work is really beautiful i love it

How do you get your sketches to be exactly the same? The proportions are perfect on both your practice and your final peice.
Great admiration as usual for your obvious talent knowledge and patience !!😍

Superb
Are you going to be doing a full tutorial on the horse? I was wondering if I should wait. thanks!
Love this so much ❤️❤️❤️
Thanks a lot.
Dang. I went to hit "Like," but realized I had already hit it. I wish there were double-like buttons, lol.
I think when TH-cam first started there was a 5 star rating system, so you could hit 5 stars if they still had that. It seems like it would be more accurate.

Thank you Louise for these amazing videos & for the time & effort which I am sure you would put into doing so. 😊
I was wondering the same thing myself. I’m going to go look up pigment numbers for that. I use mostly Daniel Smith.
It’s PG7 or phthalo green:) happy mixing!
Did you put a light pink (permanent alizarin crimson) wash on the muzzle? It looks pinkish. 💐,
Mixing your own browns really does make a noticible difference. It goes from a flat painting to something quite vibrant and alive. Very nice. Thank you. (I've made a mental note to give more attention to mixing colors.) 😊
