@@jimena_agra im SO excited for this! I'm looking at the website for the brushes, and I was wondering what size the first brush you use on the video is? :o
I read somewhere that many of the Ghibli backgrounds were painted using Nicker poster color (since they had to paint so much they couldn't use expensive paint)
Nope, wrong. I've been the ghibli museum, so that's not true. They use Nicker poster color paint, don't think it's because of the price, but honestly idk. And you can check Kazuo Oga, he's the painter who's responsible for the majority of ghibli's backgrounds. (Spirited Away, Howl's Moving Castle, Ponyo, Princess Mononoke, My Neighbor Totoro) There's videos of him painting on youtube. He also has several art books. Also, they don't use western style brushes. Or at least Kazuo Oga doesn't. He uses traditional Japanese brushes, which are used for Nihonga painting, similar to Chinese gongbi painting. (There are differences tho) Western brushes have hair that is quite stiff while Asian style brushes generally have hair that is very soft, and is designed to be able to create a larger variety of shapes with one stroke or dab. (Even watercolor brushes differ from Asian brushes) Oga utilizes elements of traditional painting technique to achieve certain effects in his paintings. The type of paint used is actually not as important (as long as it's not oil lol) These brushes however, are.....basically impossible to find in stores America. I have found them online, or at least ones that actually seem like they're good quality brushes. (Shipping is probably hell tho) I bought them in Japan, and the material is totally different from Western Brushes, and they are also quite expensive. (This is kind of true for almost all Asian style brushes) Most of the Asian brushes you see in stores in the U.S. are not good at all, even if they are sold in Japanese or Chinese art stores. But hey, you can have fun with the brushes you can find 🤷♀️
Chris Xue no one said gouache was the medium for the ghibli movies , they were just stating that gouache is a good medium to recreate the scenes due to the pigmentation.....
I love painting but it’s kinda of a love hate relationship cuz every time I start painting I think I’m not good enough I get overwhelmed and leave it half way done but your videos inspire me so much your amazing.
yo same! that's reason why i'm exploring other things like oil pastels now. idk man i love art but i don't like the nasty feelings that come with painting sometimes...
@@shreya446 I had this for years and I've only just gotten past it this year! (When using the HIMI gouache actually). I found that the less you try the better it gets. When I used a reference I used to try make it look identical and it always ended up terrible and I would give up and I threw out all of my artwork previous to this year. But when I started to think - rather than copying exactly, I'm just going to loosely do similar shapes/ideas etc. everything turned out a million times better. I started to do art for the enjoyment and found mediums that were more me, and the difference it made was insane! (and I've kept all of them since) Creating for yourself, for enjoyment rather than creating something that other people are doing or you think will impress others really makes all the difference, although it's easier said than done I know. ANYWAY I guess I'm saying try to take the pressure off, do some that are experimental and are purposefully messy, allow yourself to be bad at something and learn from it, if you can! Sorry for the rant but my mindset and viewpoint on art has really changed my art life forever and I really hope that you guys can find this too!
I absolutely ADORE how you put all three of those paints together-how the little details merge into the other paintings. Also the juxtaposition to the ocean and the cottage house is just 🥰
0:53 I've been drawing and painting for 3 years now and everytime I used to download movie and take screenshots from them. I didn't know there exists a site with screenshots already. YOU JUST CHANGED MY LIFE IN 1 MINUTE JIMMM
Sinceramente los videos de Jimena me cambian el mood, estar bajón y pasar por una mala racha y que de golpe te aparezca que Jime subió video es la mejor sensación del mundo. Ojalá esta piba sea eterna y siga haciendo feliz a la gente con lo que a ella la haga feliz :( thx for your existence Jim
ur paintings are stunning ugh... *getting my lazy ass motivated* i need to stop beeing lazy/tired sometimes.., i mean watching u, shows how much we can learn when we just do it. through time it gets better. just beeing patient is the main key. -much love from germany
I totally understand what you’re talking about, I’m new to gouache and I have such a hard time painting with it cause I’m a slow painter and it dries too quickly😭
But you can easily rewet and lift gouache, that's the part of it that's similar to watercolor. Wipe a moist brush on the paint then wipe it in a clean cloth , rinse and repeat. You can also look up how to scrub paint without tearing.
I 'm watching you many months!!i want to tell you that you are my company , especially when i want to relax and feel better! Ι admire you and your paintings!!i like to paint too!!So while i 'm watching you i feel that i 'm painting ,because i do not have many time free!!
I just absolutely love the cozy, laid back vibe all your videos have. I admire that you aren't afraid to try new mediums of art and subjects that are a bit outside of your comfort zone. Your art is just simply lovely and always brings a smile to my face.
The prettiest two pages I’ve ever seen 😍😍🥰🥰🥰🥰 everything is sooo dreamy I love your style!! I usually focus on hyperrealism but I’m soo inspired to try this dreamy and pretty style, it just looks so warm!! 🥺🥺💜
I lacked of inspiration these days: not being able to find anything that moves me, feeling frustrated for not being able to draw or paint that satisfy my own expectations... I kinda took a break from art but its abt time for me to go back. your video rly inspired me. I think that my biggest problem is im way too hard on myself. Thank u for such a beautiful video!! I'll paint as much as possible from now on!
I absolutely adore watching your videos before going to bed, your voice is so calming and the music in the background makes me feel soooo relaxed, I almost feel like I'm levitating
Amo como pintas cada día me inspiras más a poder pintar y todo lo que haces es tan cute 😄 I LOVE YOU !!! Tenés mucho talento . Te falta poco para el millón !!
it's so inspiring to watch you strugle painting some kinds of styles because when i see people paint only whatever they can, it sometimes makes me feel talentless but since you are SO talented as we know, it gave me another perspective to it by the way all of them look gorgeous
So wonderful! I just recently started painting with gouache, but you and a lot of other artists i see on youtube just inspire me to keep working at it!

Ahh, you were talking about what you didn't like about each one, but I was just in awe of how pretty they turned out! Those rocks in the water at the end were sooooo good
You've really influenced how I paint with gouache. Gouache can kind of encourage using a lot of pastels, but you have a certain ~pink~ aesthetic that I never used before I started viewing your works.
It’s so sweet to hear that you struggle with certain things, especially those you aspire to do. I’m dreaming of painting portraits and man oh man. It’s so hard. 👏🏼
Es normal que me hayan dado ganitas de llorar al final ¿? las películas de Ghibli siempre me ponen demasiado emocional y la música de fondo con las pinturas tan bonitas me despertaron un sentimiento súper soft, haces un trabajo hermoso 🤍
As the song started (merry go round) at the first second of the video, it makes me feel like floating in a seconds 🥰🥰🥰. i always say this I LOVE GHIBLI FILMS 🥰🥰🥰
You have inspired me to impulsively purchase these gouache paints and try this medium for the first time! (Coming from a beginner watercolour painter - self taught). Thank you, you are so beautiful and inspiring!
Please please please do a sketchbook tour when it’s filled!!! Xx

In my opinion gouache was made to be used to paint studio Ghibli scenes! No other medium does justice to those magical scenes

The fact that both her painting n she herself is so pretty ✨
Hello Jim, I just want to say thank you because watching your video gives me inspiration to draw, create and improvise. THANK YOU!
