I have been dabbling in watercolors for a few months. I don't have a lot of extra time and don't paint as often as I would like. But I tried this tutorial. I am over-the-moon thrilled with the results. I shocked myself. Thank you so much for sharing your work. This has been the most successful painting I have tried to-date.
Oh yay! I’m so glad you gave it a try, and that you’re pleased with how it turned out. 🥰 Thank you for taking the time to watch and comment today, this made my day to hear! 😁 I truly appreciate it. Take care and happy painting my friend. Keep up the great work!
I am very new to watercolors. The one thing I’ve heard is that don’t start with flowers because they are so hard to do. Well thanks to your tutorials I am painting flowers. You make it so easy to follow and give inspiration to a newbie.Thank you.
This makes my day to hear! I’m so glad you gave watercolor flowers a try. It’s pretty obvious by my channel, but they are my favorite thing to paint with watercolors! 🥰 Thank you for taking the time to watch today. Take care!
A beautiful image in wonderful fall and Halloween colors! As a beginner to watercolors I think this will be a wonderful image to paint. Also the background is a good example of negative painting.
Yay for fall and Halloween!! 🎃🎉 It’s my favorite time of year! Thank you for taking the time to watch and comment today, I truly appreciate it. Take care and happy painting! 🥰
I too use a lot of black. This piece of artwork is stunning...everything you do is stunning🧡🍂 The other night I had some free time I was practicing a night sky landscape with a big harvest moon. Take care Liesl and enjoy your weekend. 🍂🧡🍂🎨xoxo
Ooooo…. The painting you’re working on sounds amazing! I’m sure it will turn out beautifully. 🥰 It’s nice to know I’m not the only one who enjoys using black on occasion too! 😅 Thanks for everything Penny. You’re the best. ❤️
Liesl, your black and orange background is strikingly beautiful. So calming and peaceful, the piano background is amazing. my sister Dee and I used to watch your videos together and paint together , now she went to her heavenly home last week. But when I watch your videos they bring me peace.🙏🙏
Oh Karen….❤️ I am so sorry to hear about the loss of your lovely sister. I’m sure this has been such a difficult time for you. I’m so glad you have fond memories of her to think back on and cherish. Please know you are in my thoughts and prayers…. 🙏 Sending much love your way my friend. Please take some needed time to care for yourself. ❤️❤️❤️
This painting is stunning! I love the way the black makes the flower pop! I painted one of your designs that was similar to this one, it had the pink flower with the black accents and it turned out great! I can’t wait to give this one a try! Thank you for sharing your talents with us. Your voice and music is so soothing.
Yay! I’m so happy you tried the pink and black one, that is one of my favorites! Spoiler alert…I’m actually planning a blue and black one in the near future I think you’ll like to, so keep an eye out for it! 😉 Thanks for watching today and happy painting! ❤️
Good morning Liesl! This is so very beautiful!! I especially love how you did the background...an area I need more practice with. The black stems and leaves really make this lovely flower pop! Thanks for making the outline available and a BIG thank you for sharing your precious time and creativity with us with the best clear tutorials on TH-cam! Happy Thursday my friend and take care of you. ❤❤❤
Happy Thursday Laurie! This piece does sort of pop off the page, doesn’t it? 🥰 You are always so kind to me. I hope you know how much I appreciate your support. ❤️ I hope you have a lovely day my friend. Happy painting!
This is gorgeous Liesl! So vibrant with only a few colors. Thanks so much for sharing, will definitely be giving this a try. Thanks again for the awesome tutorial. You're amazing 😊
Yay! I can’t wait for you to give it a try! I think you’ll like this one. 🥰 Thank you for taking the time to watch today, you’re the best. Take care my friend!
I could have said it better myself! 😁 Thank you for the kind comment today. I’m so happy to hear you enjoyed this. I hope you have a lovely day! Take care my friend.
What a beautiful painting. Your colors are stunning. I love the black leaves and the background, it makes the flower the star of the show. Your teaching style is so nice to follow. Thank you for sharing your talents. You are an encouragement!
I loved watching this. For just using a minimal palette, you created such a beautiful painting. Liesl, I said it before, YOU are inspirational. Thankyou for sharing your talent.
Wow, Liesl!!! This is stunning! 😊I always wonder who makes the rules and why. Part of creating is going beyond what's expected. That's how masterpieces are created! 😊 It's a lovely composition and looks like a fun one to try! Thanks for breaking the mold! 🤣Thanks again for challenging us, encouraging us and helping us to find our creative side! 💕😊 Have a wonderful day!
I absolutely LOVE what you said there…. “creating is going beyond what’s expected”…. what a wonderful phrase Laina, I couldn’t have said it better myself. 🥰 (I think that should become our motto! 😉) Thanks for everything Laina. I hope you have a lovely weekend. Take care of yourself. ❤️
Lovely Liesl. I'm with you all the way when it comes to black. It works well with golds, yellows and pinks I think. I'll be doing this in some form. Maybe some greeting cards. Thanks again for your inspiration. 🥰x
I’m glad I’m not the only one who enjoys using black in occasion! It can create some stunning paintings. 🥰 I hope you and Linda are doing well, tell her I say hello!
Hi Liesl, what a pretty painting! ❤ The fall colours are perfect as we are approaching fall so quickly. It‘s amazing how black makes the painting pop! Thank you Liesl for sharing. Helene
Dear Liesl, I am learning so much from your videos over the past three weeks or so. Thank you so much. One question: You say you use M graham & Co tube paints, but there are so many colours in your palette, other than the ones you use in each tutorial - so I thought you were using blocks. Are these just colours you have mixed already and used for other paintings?
The paints I use are colors that are just straight from the tube and placed in a ceramic palette with empty wells. (Here is the direct link I use when I’m buying these paints if you’d like to check it out. amzn.to/48dKZBW) These are some of my favorite and most used tube paints colors from M. Graham & Co. that I have in my palette. Azo Yellow, Gamboge, Sap Green, Hookers Green, Ultramarine Blue, Dioxazine Purple, Alizarin Crimson, Quinacridone Rose, Cadmium Red, Cadmium Orange, Raw Sienna, Burnt Umber, Ivory Black. (On occasion I also use Olive green, Paynes Gray, Cobalt Blue, or others.) Just for information sake, this is a link for the palette I’m using right now that you see in this video. I really like it, the ceramic is sturdy and easy to clean, it’s not too big and not too small! (And because the wells are empty, you have the ability to use or put in any colors that suit your fancy. ☺️) amzn.to/3ICrHvY One more thing, here is a link to a video that I created kind of a long time ago before I started using the ceramic palette you see me use today, but I talk a little bit about my palette set up if you’d find that helpful. th-cam.com/video/brz4zGimKqU/w-d-xo.htmlsi=p5360exLpaW-T3-S Thanks for watching! I wish you the best of luck in your watercolor journey! 🥰
Oh no!! I hate when that happens! If you’re interested, here’s a link to the artist tape I’ve been using over the last couple of years, it has become my favorite lately because I usually don’t have problems with it ripping my paper. Artist Tape: Hippie Crafter Artist Tape amzn.to/3YemfnT I’m so glad you gave this painting a try though! I hope you had fun with it. 🥰 Take care my friend.
@lieslsartisticstudio thank-you and yes I will try those but it was my masking fluid..lol..that was weird..but I soldered on and the Pic turned out stunning thank-you so much for being apart of my watercolor journey ❤️ 😀

@@lieslsartisticstudio You can sure use that phrase if you'd like to. I had to go back and read it. I wondered if I really said that! 🥰
