I've been putting off painting 🎨 for decades; total 'block', I'm coming up seventy.There's always something else will take priority or I will feel I've too much to learn first. Your lovely videos have got me over that hurdle; small steps, something achievable in not too long a period and I love your style and projects. It so helps to get over the tyrrany of the blank page. I find your background talking so funny and a wonderful glimpse into another life. It takes attention away from OCD/ trying too hard and lo and behold I find I'm guddling my brush into the water and painting away.
Thanks so much Sue for your kind comments and for sharing your thoughts on painting. So glad you enjoy the videos and I really hope you get started and make time for yourself to paint. You’re the same age as me - and if not now, then when!🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Hello Diane, regards from Mexico. I take the opportunity to congratulate you for your beautiful job on every video you share with us. I'm a first time beginner and would like to ask you when wetting the brush in the same water already colored, and wish to use another color, what happens to the chosen color, does the tone vary or use another brush for every different color?
@@yolandajaramillo7537 I’m just a beginner, but you can use 2 jars of water - one “dirty” and one “clean.” I first swirl in the dirty then a quick swirl in the clean. Or another option is using two jars again, one for hot colors (reds yellows oranges) and one for the cool (blues greens browns). I hope this helps. Super beginner here as well. ❤️
Hey Diane... I just started painting this last fall. Of all the tutorials available out there, I love yours the most. I paint along with you and have found your instructions easy to follow. You make painting fun! Thank you!
You are so welcome! Thanks so much for your comment, it means a lot to me to know how much you enjoy the videos! It’s so important to have some fun and relaxation😍 so happy painting!
Me too!
You are not boring Diane, you could even talk about holding a pencil and it would not be boring! I love the animal sounds in the background, it makes it all so very real! Cozy dognails ticking on the floor, rooster going jippie outside, it is just so lovely. I keep thinking about the poor dog from your neighbours, hope so much she is some place better now...
Thanks so much for your lovely comments! I have heard that the woman with the dog that used to live opposite has now moved into the town just down the road. I will inevitably see her at some point or drive past her house so eventually I will find out, what happened to Bella. Everyone knows everyone’s business here! So glad that you enjoyed the videos! I really must cut Zen’s nails!!!
If anyone can make me get my watercolors out after putting them up for Christmas, it’s you dear Diane. ❤ my favorite watercolor channel!!!
Excellent Karen!!!! Wishing you much fun!!!
Karen, I just read your comment and I agree..she's the best!
I just discovered her and WHAT HAVE I BEEN MISSING?! Apparently a LOT! 🤭
This very beautiful painting takes me on an all expense trip to Africa! I can see rhinos and lions walking in line across the lighter strips, as well as a caftan worn by a statuesque lovely woman. Another gold star for you! Thanks so much for the holiday!❤️❤️❤️XOXO
It's always nice to hear you talk about your materials, supplies and your choice of colours, thanks Diane 😊
Thanks Maria!!
What a great exercise to unwind and relax! This is a really beautiful abstract piece of art that would look really nice framed and hanging in my house. I'll give it a go! As always, I love reading your comments, because I'm so happy for you and Tamsin on the great success of your channel. Looks like your faithful followers are sharing your channel with others and encouraging them to subscribe. It's a win, win! I've learned so much from you. Far more than ANY in-person art class that I've ever paid for. That's why I like putting a bit of money in your tip jar from time to time. I just love seeing your channel grow!
I love doing this style with you!
The horizontal bands of colors merging...wonderful desert colors ... was transfixing. As the embellishments were placed, i was reminded of indigenous weavings. Strking. Elegant. I want to plsy like this. Will watch this again. A favorite.
the painting you created is so beautiful 😍
Thanks so much Chantelle!
A great video Diane. I am very much a beginner and really appreciate your explanation of color choices, brush types, markers and techniques. You have opened up a whole new world for me! Your videos are always so calm and zen! Thank you!❤
Oh, thanks so much Doree (love your name btw!) and I’m so glad you have found us and are enjoying the videos. Thanks for supporting us with your membership, it means a lot to us. Happy painting and happy new year!
Loved ❤ doing this “with you,” Diane! So much fun. I also did a blue variation. 😊
just what I needed! I'm starting over from the beginning. I rarely paint because I don't paint well. So for 2023 I will have to keep telling myself I'll never be able to improve if I don't at least try.
Excellent! I was thinking of you when I did this tutorial! I know you can do it!❤️
The perfect way to paint. No plan just keep going ❤this is the kind of exercise I can do!
I love it! It would make a beautiful fabric design! What fun!
Your gold abstract is amazing!! I want some of those paints!
I love this style of art! It's so relaxing and carefree, plus a great way to get familiar with your paints. FedEx even delivered my set of 48 Kuretake paints while watching this video, so guess what I'm doing the rest of today!
Well, how about that! I think it must be fate! Have fun doing this painting😍!
She's the best! I'm learning so much!❤
This is fun, Diane. It has a 60s boho look about it, or even aboriginal or southwestern. What a pretty pattern to paint on a silk scarf or on fabric to make into a skirt. So many lovely applications.
Hi Diane, you are so right, I can see a skirt in this fabric back in the 1960s! I would’ve killed for that! Wouldn’t it make a lovely scarf as well! So glad you enjoyed the video, and thanks for your comments!
I liked the white lines. More contrast.
I love those golds. In the video at the beginning you say they are fintec brand however in your links below and Amazon link they are kuretake. Can you clarify they which those stunning golds are thankyou.
Both brands work the same. Sorry for the confusion - I’ll sort that out today.
Me too Diane.. I'm a bit late to the Kuretake line of Watercolors but wow are they amazing! I picked up the Set II over the weekend and it's a wonderful 12pc set!
Yes they are! Have fun 😍
Love the warm colors!🍂🧡
Thank you! 🤗
I like the designs that were created on your initial paint. It looks like a desert scene. 🏜
Dot from Derbyshire UK
Hi Diane, love this one please do more like this in different colors blues, pinks, purples and greens. I'm going to have a go I think it's beautiful. Lots of love, Dot x
I will Dot, I’m planning one for next week!
Ah, I just saw this video in one of your shorts... I'm so glad I found the long version. What a wonderful project. Thank you so much.
You are so welcome! So glad you enjoyed it - happy painting!
Another great video! I learn something new each time and all I can say is, thank you, thank you, over and over again. I feel as if you have given me my life back! Your is commentary is down to earth and very valuable to me. I love to hear the rooster crowing in background.
You are so welcome! I’m so glad you enjoy the videos!
Love the rooster crowing
Every video I learn something new or inspiring. 🙏🏽❤️
Love that!
Just beginning watercolors and I love your channel! I was afraid I was going to have to spend $$$ but you say to “use what you have at hand”. I’m no longer stressed about perfection but just enjoying the learning process. Thank you so much Diane.💕
You are so welcome!
Love kuretaki paints! Is your board on an angle or flat?
Yes, it’s great, isn’t it! I usually paint flat and in this video I was definitely flat!
I love this idea! I will definitely complete this. 😊
Yay, thank you!❤️
Love this! Was great fun to do.. Thank you. 🥰
You are so welcome!
Absolutely adore this Diane xxxxx
Thanks Kassie 😍
I got an Amazon gift card for Christmas. I went through your channel to order the 365 days of art in nature book. But, brilliant me forgot to use my gift card. Lol.
Oh well, I will find something else to use my gift card for.
I have no doubt.
So funny Cathy, you sound just like me! But I’m sure you’ll soon think of something else you simply MUST have!!
@@DianeAntoneStudio I'm sure I will.
Diane, love the roaster!! Brings me back childhood memories.
Love all those beautiful gold colors. Awesome painting exercises. The paper came out looking so nice; my favorite were the leafs.
Hi Lily, thanks so much for your comment. I’ll have to break it to Gabriel that he is a roaster, I don’t know if he’ll be pleased about that, ha ha! So glad you enjoyed the video. It’s one of my favorites too!
@@DianeAntoneStudio 🤣please do. Tell Gabriel that I’m sorry🤣 “rooster” 🐔
Wow Diane i just loved it. I am surely gonna try it
Have fun!
Ok. I’m getting the graphite ordered today! This looks so relaxing!!!Thank you as always!!!
Hello Diane, This is so a nice tutorial, to try out some colors and paint with more or less water.
I m going to do this today. Actually I can use all kind of colors, fitting by the season. :)
Thank you for this inspiration.
At 16.34 i see an animal running in the middle...haha
Hi Marian, so glad you enjoyed this one! I think it has many possibilities for developing with the seasons, good idea! Also you could add trees and houses and even fish swimming or birds flying.
Is it possible to water colour on canvas?
Yes, it is. You put watercolour ground on first 😀
Thank you for doing this ♥️
You are so welcome!
Great fun! Love it!❤️❤️❤️
Thank you 🤗
Looks like such fun! And I love using the metallics!
Looks like fun! Thx
It was!
I really like how the background looks once it has dried even without the embellishment! I liked your palette choices, but I decided to try it out in red as I need a birthday card for my daughter's significant other - it's his 40th and ruby is for 40th celebrations! Thank you for the inspiration (courage, as you say!) - mine is drying now..........we'll see what happens!
Yes, you’re right Tracy, it did have something rather soft and lovely about it. Great idea to use it to paint a greetings card. So glad you enjoy the videos!
I'm going to do this...I need a break/change from my typical florals! I love the variety that you bring to your channel. I also enjoy Gabriel's background sounds! 🐓
You are so welcome!
Awesome lesson Miss Diane :) I have my sister interested in watercolor painting & since I have more than I can use, I set her up with just about everything she needs to start with , including your tutorials and she Loves you ! So a Huge Thank you & Blessings to you Darling. Happy Painting !
Wonderful! I’m so glad to hear it about your sister, being interested in watercolour! I love to hear when people find out about a wonderful hobby! Even better still that she’s enjoying our videos! Thanks so much for sharing this lovely message! Wishing you and your sister a wonderful watercolour 2023!
Wonderful idea for a warm up! Plus the advantages of turning the finished piece into book marks! I always feel like I am wasting paper when warming up! Problem solved now!😊
That's a great idea!😍
For a novice like me, this looks doable. Thank you Diane so much for providing such a creative diving board.
You’re so welcome Linda!! Happy painting 😍
Thank you. I just started to watercolor. I can draw, drew an old Rome church medical-simple church. Then I thought how do I paint stone features with watercolor. I can make these lines first with the color I think might work?
Hi Vicki! Glad you enjoyed this video. I think it will work to use this technique to create stonework. I would be interested to see how it turns out! Have fun!😍
Thank you for this tutorial. I will be visiting this instruction again. Beginners struggle with the amount of water on a brush, how to hold a brush for different results and this presentation helped quite a bit. Thank you.
You are so welcome! Glad it was helpful 😍
What a great review for a slightly experienced artist. I find this so helpful and well explained. Thank you!
Glad it was helpful!
I always really like your color palette. This has been a fun creative process project today. ❤thanks Diane.
You are so welcome!
I’m learning a lot about water colors & how they react to water. It makes me not so afraid to try it. Thank you Diane! 💦
That’s excellent to hear Jeanie, glad you’re enjoying the videos xx
Thank you this is wonderful. As a super newbie (still) I look for wc tutorials that are more play and technique not actual paintings yet although I watch all of yours no matter what. I'm 74 and never having painted or even ever have doodled in my life I'm finding my imagination just doesn't go there without assistance. I love this and will be practicing this over and over and with different colors. Really appreciate this and you, Diane. Happy New Year😄
PS- I just ordered a set like yours from amz only the 12 color one as budget directed but that's ok I'm still exited for whatever I can have!
Hi Kathy, thanks very much for your lovely message! I know what you mean about imagination. I think our generation was a bit inhibited in that regard. I have to work very hard to come up with ideas. The great thing though is being able to share them with people, nothing makes me happier than to see other peoples versions of what I paint! So glad you have invested in some Kuretake paints - they are very good for the kind of thing that I tend to do nowadays. I think you will enjoy them. Great idea to do the same painting in more than one colour way - there is so much to be learnt that way about colour combinations and the way the paint works , most of all, just have fun!
Oh my goodness! Love this! You just made my day!
So glad!! Have fun!❤️
So pretty. Love this 👍👍
Thanks so much 😊
Great lesson!
Thanks! 😃
Ihre Videos geben mir immer viel Inspiration und ich habe schon einiges selber versucht. Et jaime beaocoup votre coq. 😄
Das freut mich sehr! Vielen Dank für die nette Wörter und ich sage Gabriele, daß Sie in ihm verliebt sind 🤣🤣🤣
