Christine,
I can't tell you how much you motivate me to paint more. I love watercolor and you absolutely bring the medium to life! Thank you so much!
Lynne
Thank you, Lynne! I am happy you enjoy my videos :) Happy painting!
So many times you'd do something to the painting and I'd think oh no, she's wrecked it, but then somehow it turned out so beautifully!
Christine, you are just amazing, and such an inspiration to me. Thank You...
Awe, thanks so much :)
MAGNIFIQUE !!! Dans la technique et le choix audacieux de la palette. Félicitations et merci !
Brilliant job at conveying Light.
Christine,
You are so good that I cannot follow you. You slap on seemingly random watercolor and it becomes a beautiful painting and can't see how it's done! I've got to look at simpler instructions. I'll be back, though. You ARE good.
Such an inborn talent I have seldom seen.
Thank you :)
Another fabulous portrait from you. You're the bomb! Sometime in the future, would you do a portrait of someone with light hair/blond, please? I was also wondering, do you consider yourself a fast painter and does that make a difference in painting portraits? I watch your videos over and over again hoping someday, I will be able to get as good as you are, I've got a looonnnggg way to go. Thanks for sharing.
Thanks Candy Kelly :) Will add the blond hair to my list! Fastness is not really something important in painting - in fact it is better to take the time and decide where to put the next right brush stroke and how. Fastness comes through confidence, and confidence comes through experience and lots of practise :)
Great Job, I love mixing the watercolor with crayons and acrylic. congratulations.
Could you tell me about what paper it looks like ??? thank you very much.
Hi Laura! My materials are listed in video description. This one was on Strathmore watercolor paper 140lb. For my mixed media art I use Strathmore Mixed Media 400 series 140lb. Thank you :)
Amazing how much can be lifted!
Wow!! That's pure magic. Thank you so much ❤❤❤❤
Thanks :)
j adore vos peintures , tres realismes, cela doit etre difficike de peindre avec oeinture a l eau, je regarde toutes vos peintures et j essaie de prendre notes, je vous admires et j aile ce qye vous faites, j adoreeeeee. josiane
Merci :)
And what I mean by "good" is, you're great! This is the style I think of when I think of watercolor, my newly prefered and permanent medium. But it will take a while for me to learn this technique. May I ask how long it has taken you to master this technique. (And I'm talking about all your videos... well most of them, anyways. Especially this one and the eye).
Hi there, thank you so much! Watercolor and pencil are my all time favourites as well :) I have been painting and drawing all my life (40+ years). Try not to compare your own work with other artists work, we all have subject we love to paint and subjects we are struggling/still learning, some of us have painted for a long time already, some just started - compare your work to your own previous work, and you'll see how it will get better and better with every piece you do! Try to do some fun pieces where you just play around with paint and watch what happens, and how the paint works on paper, on wet and dry, try to lift paint and add layers! Hope my videos inspire you to keep going and enjoy painting!
Very lovely!
Wonderful job.The first time i watched watercolor painting and i m really impressed. Would like to ask if you can watercolor on canvas and if so how would you prepare your canvas?
Thank you! I haven't tried to paint with watercolor on canvas yet, but have seen artists doing it. But I have no idea how they do it :)
Wow! Watching you work has given me new insights into color application and brushstrokes. Did you use ant lifting medium in the water you initially wetted the paper with?
No, just water - I like the simple ways :) This paper is great for lifting technique! Thanks so much!
Love the video, thanks for sharing! What kind of paper you are using? I feel 100% cotton paper is hard to lift after it get dry
If you check under the video where it says "show more" Christine lists her materials. She uses, Strathmore Watercolor paper 140lb
Hi Lu Cheng! Thank you, Candy Kelly :) yes, it is Strathmore watercolor paper. And that's true, Lu Cheng, it doesn't work the same on 100% cotton, like Arches. Works better on paper.
love your demostrations but which that you could narrate what you are doing. thank you
Thank you, Alina! My problem is that when I start talking I can't focus on painting. I will need to get better on video editing and maybe one day am able to do it better :)
Why not do a voice over after you have completed the painting during editing? Love your Art x x
I dont think that she is able to yet
Thank you very very much!!! You are master! I'm every day whatching your amazing video! I'm sorry for my English)))
Thank you so much for your comment, Tatyana! Your English is perfect!
the paint seems really gritty is it the brand or the colors?
very nice
wow! how did lift that ochre? isnt that a staining color?
This paper is pretty good for lifting paint, and yes, it still stains a little, but because the rest of the painting is covered with strong saturated colors/values it looks like it's all off. Thank you!
How does your painting stay so wet in the first half ? there are no hard edges at all or 'cauliflowers ', yet there is also no flooding
I guess, because it was a pretty quick painting and continuing adding of paint. Thank you!
Complimenti iiiiiii ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
very beautyful
Thank you!
What paper do you use?
So inspired! Thank you!!!
I don’t get how you lift so much color... is it to do with the type of paper?
@@devasharp omg i have the sam experience. it wont even lift the whole color after im using the same technique

Bravissima
