    This whole presentation is just great. Love the laughter, the comments from the camera man, the causal back and forth, and all the tips. Delightful! I'm thinking I might try this. So far I’ve just been playing around with my watercolors to become more familiar with the techniques.

    I just want to say thank you Sarah Cray! I really appreciate your tutorials. I'm a pandemic painter (no experience with painting before this, except messing around with my Tombow markers) and with your help I have actually been able to paint things that I'm proud of. This will be my 23rd tutorial of yours since mid-May. :-)

    We recently discovered ur channel and the kits ordering a couple. However we’d like to paint along outside the kits with our Newton Windsor colors but it’s hard to discern the true colors considering both the unusual uncommon color names used by Dr Phil’s as well as how the screen can make colors look different. We’ve already gotten not so good results trying to guess color matches. It would be super helpful if color names such as ultramarine blue, Quin Red, or even primary pigment could be briefly mentioned when noting colors in these fun painting tutorials. Thx!

    Quick question: do you use cold pressed or hot pressed paper? How do you get the paper not to warp while you paint? I don't see that it's taped anywhere! I love it :)

    • @LetsMakeArt
      @LetsMakeArt  6 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      I use cold press (xl Canson). This paper is not the thickest but it works for me and it is a great price. The reason why mine doesn't warp as much is I am painting on the pad - so one side is glued down. If I had one sheet of paper then I would probably use tape so it wouldn't warp :)

    • @LetsMakeArt
      @LetsMakeArt  3 ปีที่แล้ว

      Sarah uses a butcher tray for her paints. You can find them on our website here: www.letsmakeart.com/products/butcher-tray-palette-medium another great option is to use a ceramic plate. We wouldn't want you to waste any of you paint when mixing colors. The great thing about these palates is that you can come back and use any leftover paint for another project by just adding a little water.

    • @LetsMakeArt
      @LetsMakeArt  5 ปีที่แล้ว

      Be sure that you are drawing the lines as light as possible! Then, if you would still like to lighten them up a bit, I would recommend using a kneaded rubber eraser. These are super cool and can be formed into any shape! Just tap the eraser over the lines and it will pick up some of the graphite. We sell them on our website here: www.letsmakeart.com/products/kneaded-rubber-erasers
