      I agree thanks for the video!
      What do you mean by valet?
      I found the video incredibly helpful and a beautiful final product.

    I don't know if that's just me, but the background seems more interesting than the foreground. Never the less the painting is pretty cool.

    So lovely and you make it look so easy. I struggle so much with loose watercolour. I try to start loose but in the process, my brain flips and I just tend to overwork everything. I will keep practicing. Thank you for the inspiration.

    • @KseniaAnnis
      @KseniaAnnis  ปีที่แล้ว

      You are very welcome, Patty! It doesn't work for me every time either, definitely needs a serious brain adjustment! 😄

    Wow, you had no problem with that plant. Hard to tell but I think it might be what we call Lantana. Comes in many colors. Very common in Florida and I think it is native to the Mediterranean. Thanks for a great display and excellent narration! 👍

    Beautiful work. Thank you for sharing these tips and techniques. By the way the plant on your picture is called "valériane" or "Rose de Mai"in French. In English, I think it is the same : valeriane.

    I find it a challenge to be loose with my watercolour painting as I come from an oil background, this seems so accessible and may I just say, your photography is spot on! Such a talent 😊

    • @KseniaAnnis
      @KseniaAnnis  2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Thank you so much, very kind of you! I totally understand, I painted with acrylics for several years, so watercolor was a big adjustment. I still have to get into that mindset to paint loosely, it's a totally different approach from opaque media. Good luck with your art!

    Like your work. Your voiceover gives good tips. I'd say it is moderately loose. Your architectural skills keep all the roofs within proper perspective, always very difficult for me. Thanks.

    • @KseniaAnnis
      @KseniaAnnis  2 ปีที่แล้ว

    Loved your video ! Thanks so much 💌 I have a random fact to put in this commentary section, hope my humor isn't too bad : in France people say GigondaSSSSS and not Gigonda, the S is pronouncable 🤫Means nothing in french but sounds funny in english 🤣

    Do you use Prismacolor soft core pencils or regular premier pencils and do you know the difference?

    • @KseniaAnnis
      @KseniaAnnis  ปีที่แล้ว

      Hi Pam! I checked the box and it says Prismacolor Premier Soft Core set of 36. with a butterfly on the box. I remember looking for the words soft core when I was shopping for them. Firmer ones can be scratchy and sometimes they leave indentations on paper.
