You are so good at the wet on wet watercolor technique. I have followed along with a few of your videos but am wondering what type/brand of paper you use for wet on wet? I do my best to use “just enough” water but a lot of times when I’m making a color gradient it feels like the paint is being scraped back and forth and lines appear. Do you think it might be due to the paper or could it be a technique issue?
Today, we’ll be starting with a simple painting..
* paints Mona Lisa *
Trover19 hahhahahaa 😂😂😂😂😂
Like... No. It's really a simple plain painting with not much skill required to paint it
Hahaha
@@minaboneva5679 let people have fun
@@minaboneva5679 it's a joke, have you heard of those?
That paint is damn good quality
Indeed it is
Yeah...
that's probably why my paintings look like a two year old made it
xBreezy Gachax just remember! A good paint can’t make an unskilled painter good, but a practiced, skilled painter can make something good out of a bad paint! A good painting takes practice, not price.
Galaxy Floral This is late but if you want the best results, you might need to invest a bit more in better watercolours. Not saying it has to be like $100. It could be like $10 and you would get much better results than buying a $5 one.
Whaaaaaaat?! They look like prints!😵😱 This is so beautiful! None of my art teachers in school ever taught this technique...huhuhu.
Ferdinand Marquee Fuentes - I know, right? I feel like when I was in art school, there was a lot of time wasted because a lot of the techniques I’m finding online never even saw the light of day when I was in school. Of course, I was in school 100 years ago, so there’s that. 😁
Your art teacher teaches you stuff? I'm doing art GCSEs and all my teacher is doing is putting a photo in front of us and telling us to draw.
@@shortmeditation6464 I was so, so confused, like how did you respond 20 years ago?! Then oh, it's part of your name😂 But yes, my art teachers primarily taught crafts rather than in-depth painting techniques😅
And that's why TH-cam is a thing!
@Geeta Dhaulakhandi XD
Those leaves are fantastic! I actually fell out of watercolor painting because of the lack of depth and detail in my paintings. This helped so much, I'm going to implement this in my painting excursions!
"it might look weird and like nothing at the beginning, but it's part of the process" yaaaaash ❤️❤️❤️❤️ #makoficationsquad
Yeaah!! Inspiration~
1 tip I can give, if you are tired to wet your entire paper, use the spray bottle. Fill the water in it and spray on your paper then spread a little with brush. I like this idea and really inspire me. I hope there are more art hacks from you, #makoficationsquad
Shifak Aisyah ,nice idea
Shifak Aisyah
I agree with the water bottle. I really wanted to spritz it. This technique can get muddy very quickly.
@Bill Stark Dumb Ass...
Love this, thank you!
"it may look weird now" * looks so cool already*
.
Speaking as a professional illustrator for the last 30+ years, I just wanted to say how much I enjoy the helpful, clear and concise videos you put out & have gladly subbed... I don't pretend to know everything there is, especially on certain subjects I haven't practiced in decades (watercolours!) but I do know you're never too old or experienced to learn new approaches or techniques. This channel must be a goldmine for those just starting out.
So - thank you makoccino.
Finally, a negative painting tutorial that’s idiot proof for people like me. 😂
#makoficationsquad
Awww haha ❤
nessa1678 idiot proof hahahaha im stealing that
I second that. I will be trying this tomorrow.
I’ve watched lots of watercolor videos and it’s my first time seeing/learning about it. Great job explaining it! #makoficationsquad
I am retired and decided to paint and I find your videos so fulfilling, I love them. Thanks so much, regards from Overlandpark Kansas USA
I had tried the leaf painting when I didn't know that it was done using negative technique. It didn't turn out that good. I will try it this time with this technique. Thanks!
now I've realized that our lessons in the art sub do really makes sense. I thought it's just by distinguishing what is the negative side or art and what is positive. Now it can be also applied in painting and such. OMG iluvit
Vian Shekainah its all just colour and application, think of things as shadow and shapes and you’re golden
These look wonderful. You can really see the depth of color with this technique.
I watched this in my art class I really enjoyed it since it’s close to Christmas I did ornaments🥳
This video was shown in an art class? 🙉
Yup 🙃
My teacher loves your channel!
awww
Just another sleep deprived teen so closed to Chris
I appreciate that you keep reminding us that at first it might not look good but keep going. My first two paintings I almost tossed out cause I was upset that it looked weird but when I finished them you could see what I wanted.
Girl you are a watercolour wizard!! 😘
Aww
Same
👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👌👌👌
When I've done negative painting in the past I always draw everything first (for example, all the leaves) and then try to paint from there and normally get really confused about which areas to paint or not. This way is waaaay better! You only need to think about one layer at a time 😁 I'm going to try again!
Who else thinks mako should be an art teacher
These are litterally the best hacks I’ve ever seen
I love how simply you explained this when it shows you’ve done hard work studies for this before! Super helpful!
For the first time, I feel that I learned something and I feel motivated to do work and feel that I am going to do it well and I can improve. I thank you very much
I love your watercolor lessons. I am not a watercolor artist, so when I have watercolor lessons, I always show your videos to give kids a good example of correct technique and finishes.
I've been looking everywhere for a tutorial that could explain negative painting in a way that made sense to a beginner like me! This saved my LIFE!!!
That's the most amazing advice ❤ really helped a lot!
I love this technique! Thank you so much for the lesson!
Wow.... That 3 D effect to leaves... Wow... I don't believe the power of water colour. U r gr8 artist. I will be using the technique... That layer thing is so smart...!!! 👌 Thanks for the video...!!! ☺️😊👌
ok but mixing this with lifting on the leaves would be...ethereal. thank you for this simple explanation
Me for the entire video :"owh~ I see~"
MAKO I FINALLY UNDERSTAND
Negative painting is not at all a negative thing. It looks like a real photo. It is very interesting. Thank you very much
Ur explanation and the steps u gave to paint this is extraordinary
Your videos are always so helpful
This is such a great idea!
I am still so grateful that I have found your channel! You use all the art supplies that are available to me and it’s so helpful to see how easily they can be used. These smaller paintings really keep me going. Thank you!
So happy I found this. Negative painting has always been hard for me, I don’t think “backwards” very well! So thanks again😉❤️👍🎨
It is a very beautiful painting and technique. I will definitely try to do this.
I gonna try this! I think it's exactly what I need to improve my painting, thanks 👍
I really suck at watercolor but I love it so much i'm willing to watch a thousand videos and try a thousand times JUST to master it. Your videos certainly help me. A LOT. thank youuu
I loved this technique. I've never thought of approaching a painting negatively. Thanks!!!
It's was easy the way you explain. I love the video. I will try this method. Thank you so much
Great tips, this is a relaxing painting style for sure.
I went to art school and technically knew about negative painting but I hadn't seen someone use it in this way before! I really appreciate the inspiration. Thank you for sharing it!
Really cool.
I first encountered negative space drawing in high school art. I drew a ladder back chair by negative space, and I was hooked forevermore...
Thanks.
I am just in love with painting after watching your videos mako..they gave me alot of inspiration....thanks....fr...sharing these...videos.....and...i....just subscribed😍😍
Omg i love your advices for paintings thankyouu
Btw. I SUBSCRIBED😍
Incredibly beautiful, full of depth.
Hi
I'm writing to let you know that I tried this technique today and it turned out well, even though it is nowhere even close to your painting, it is better than my previous attempts. Thank you. I'm a huge fan of your work.
So great!
I have really wanted to learn this technique but i didn't know how to manage the layers well, then i met this video. Thank you so much!
By the way your voice is really cute~
Thank you!!
I can't draw, but I like to pretend I can when I watch your video.
Great work and technique
Drawing is just about practicing. Try tracing or printing out an outline and try painting that.😃
This little video will, I'm sure, inspire those struggling with water colour. Well done.
I love your painting they are so amazing they look pretty hard and beautiful but it's easy .
Hiiii makoccina
I dont ever comment but u are amazing, thanks to you i learned to paint and draw ,i am interested in drawing but can't and my parents ard not really keen in sending me to lessons ,but thanks to you i am learning ,you are the best ,i hope you get over 10 million subs thanks alot #makoficationsquad
Wow! Such a great technique! 🎨 ❤️ I’ll try this for sure! May I ask what paper you used? Cause a lot of papers don’t do well with water retainment, they curl up easily :/
I have the paper linked in the infobox 😊
The first tip: at the first when she did the background it looked marvelous
You're paintings are awesome I love it😍😍
I watch your videos so much. I have been following for awhile now. I am a beginner. You are my go to person as far as painting with watercolors..I also love working with polymer clay, & journaling. You're such an inspiration for us who think we can't get to the next level. Thanks so much 👩🎨🌟💞🖌 #makoficationsquaud
I'm so so so glad I found your channel this summer. I had been thinking about getting back into art for a while now, since I loved to do it as a child, but was always too scared because I'm not good at it. Your videos are always so encouraging and helpful, and this summer has been much more relaxing thanks to you. Thank you for always making great videos!
Thank you so so much for your support! It means a lot to me! I'm glad my videos could help you! ❤
xonikkee awww so cute
Me too! I also really wanted to get into art this summer, so I’ve been watching her videos and following her tutorials. my summer has become very fun and relaxing, too!!
Nice performance
For some reason I love listening to her voice it is just so nice and gentle I love it
Wow... I've never seen this technique before. It's amazing to see how the artwork standout in the end 😱❤️✨👌
I just want to say thank you
#makoficationsquad
I always like your videos that give us tips to improve our paintings! I would suggest a video when you paint a day and night scenery.
Have a great day!
Beautiful! Thank you for the great tutorial! 🎨
Hi! I enjoyed watching you do this technique. It is a fun technique. It kind of feels like you are carving out the objects in the picture because as you paint around them they pop right off the paper! I like how you added shadows and details. I think I've been too much of a purist, and now I feel inspired to add a lot more dimension thanks to you!
Je suis française, et je suis en école d'art alors je suis tombé sur ta chaîne en il y a quelques mois, j'ai encore un peu de mal a comprendre tout ce que tu explique mais avec les sous titres je réussis à comprendre !
#makoficationsquad
"I'm french, and in art school, so I discovered your channel few months ago. I still struggle a little to understand everything you explain, but with subtitles I'm able to understand"
Watercolor has always been a challenge for me but I will definitely try these tips today in art class!
#makoficationsquad
I enjoyed this painting process. This is the first time I tried painting negative space. Very happy with my finished painting.
This is a huge help...
So pretty.
They look like polaroid pictures.. I love this.
Very interesting technique. Will surely try it tomorrow. #makoficationsquad
I love this thank you for sharing =) I wish i could paint hehe Maybe one day ill get the guts to try ^.~
I like the in depth look at the various techniques in watercolor to really help out beginner artists. I really like this simple technique of building up the background layers. I recently was painting a forest scene and trying to figure out how dark to go as the background had this foggy glow vs. the very dark foreground. Thanks for sharing Makoccino!
I LOVE how you explain the logic behind the techniques etc..so engouraging to the people that are just starting ❤️✨
😍❤️😍
#makoficationsquad this came in time
I hope you'll do a video about drawing portraits with watercolour I've been struggling with it
Nice1
I like this technique but I would use the opposite color on the color wheel to incorporate into the deepest darks for shadows and to develop the black background
I really like the depth this gives the painting. a great tutorial
#makoficationsquad love you soo much mako 💞
#makoficationsquad that's one helpful video!♥ Can u make one about how u deal with creative blocks? I believe a lot of us can benefit from that.
This is just simply stunning
This is such a beautiful technique😍😍💞💞
I love your channel so much.. I get so much positivity and inspiration from your work! #makoficationsquad
Aww that's awesome!
At first I thought they were REAL photos but they were PAINTINGS?! I'm amazed.

i'm struggling with making sense of light source/shadows, to be completely honest lol.
but, i seriously LOVE that you made a video on negative painting! i just finished up 2 negative paintings last week and i LOOOOOVED painting them!!! i'm definitely going to figure out how to incorporate negative painting in my art a whole lot more! i love the process and i love love love the results! ☺️
I still have trouble with the ratio of paint to water. I either soak my paper too much or load the brush with too much water.
Youre so talented and your tips and tricks help me so much #makoficationsquad
