Jackie - you are incredibly generous with all your free downloadable templates! I don’t see that often on TH-cam and I just think it’s fantastic. You definitely have a follower and deity in me. ❣️👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼🧑‍🎨

[@JackieHernandezWatercolor]

😊 Thank you so much. I hope you enjoy the tutorials!

[@chrislora8895]

As a professional trainer who has learned to train others and develop skills, I think your videos are, hands down, the BEST introductory videos on watercolor on TH-cam! Somehow your videos started showing up just recently on my home page, after I spent about four years learning bits and pieces of watercolor knowledge, and from some very good artists. Your videos are VERY well planned, recorded, organized and give clear instructions as you take the viewer step by step to the final image. You share just the right personal information, keeping in mind people want to learn techniques, not make friends. Thank you for these videos. Good luck on your channel!

[@JackieHernandezWatercolor]

Thank you for the wonderful compliment. I’m glad you enjoy the videos. I only started on TH-cam in August 2023, so it’s taken a while for TH-cam to get my videos in front of the right people. I’m glad they showed up in your feed.

I could watch you paint all day. 😍And seeing the different value test strips before was very helpful.

[@JackieHernandezWatercolor]

Thank you. I wish I could paint all day, but these videos don’t edit themselves 😂

[@karenluke-mannarino3426]

I saw your post about neutral tint on IG & it brought me here to your channel! This was excellent advice and I am looking forward to watching more of your videos.

[@JackieHernandezWatercolor]

Yay! I’m glad you’re here.

I love how clean and solid your reference photos are! Are you drawing them or using an a feature to transform into a line drawing? :)

[@JackieHernandezWatercolor]

I draw them, but I use my iPad to draw them digitally.

[@AyaSmith]

@@JackieHernandezWatercolor maybe one day in the future you could make a tutorial! The results are very clean and precise, I bet you have some great tips 😊

[@user-rs6dh8tr5o]

Can I use neutral black?

[@JackieHernandezWatercolor]

I’m not familiar with that color. Neutral Tint was specially formulated to mix well with all colors. I would test your black and see if it works with your colors.
