Skillshare have free trials for anyone, are you aware of this? I wont tell anyone if you don't lol x
I'm already a member of Skillshare but don't use it that much. I'll start spending more time there. I've been doing the Jane Blundell "Mastering Watercolor" class and have painted 8 triads thus far and discovered there are thousands of possibilities. It's amazing how the mood changes dramatically depending on the triad you use. For instance, the Earth Triad of Goethite, Cerulean, and Indian Red is completely different than the Bright Triad of Hansa Yellow Med, Ultra Blue, and Pyrrol Scarlet. The more I've learned about pigments, the more fine tuning I've been able to do with my own triads. Once I discovered WN Indian Red was transparent, I decided to replace the DS version in my palette. I love the transparent colors the best.
Your lessons are amazing, Louise. The most amazing watercolor instructors are from Australia! Did you ever think of that? Thank you!
I was so tickled to find a new tutorial! Gorgeous as always and I truly love the two or three color pallet. It’s just amazing to me what you can do with that. I look as forward to your outtakes as much as the regular content..so much fun! I always learn so much from you!💖🤗👍👍👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
How wonderful to see an experienced and publicly successful painter try something new!! Heading over to skill share this afternoon! I live where there are NO art classes and on a limited budget, so your videos have been invaluable! Thanks!!
I love the outakes - they crack me up laughing......
Thank you! 💕
Thank you Louise for showing them to us 💕
Rinsor Wed.
Simple yet brilliant! Love these little autumn leaves. ❤
I love that you are sharing your journey with watercolour. Thanks so much - I really enjoy these videos over a cuppa in the morning. Please keep it up!!
I love that you are covering different colour theories! You are doing a fab job! I hope Dom is doing well.
Thanks very much Patricia. He's going great. 💕
You look as if you are enjoying this little painting so much. I am excited to try it though I have used only 3 colors in watercolor paintings before. i found it very interesting how the particular blue, yellow, and red that I choose shifts my mixings in so many ways. the choices seem endless! Ha! XOXOJane
Have fun! Thanks so much Jane. 💕
Beautiful gum leaves, thanks again Louise 😊😊
First painting completed that gave me joy to look at. Thanks for a beginner lesson that is truly for a beginner and shows so many techniques that can be used for more complex paintings 😀😃😄😊😄😃😀 I have a lot more confidence now. I am excited to keep painting. Thank you
Wonderful! That makes me very happy Indigo.💙
Wow those dogs are fabulous, lovely to watch Louise, I've never heard of triadic solour schemes, very interesting thankyou
Glad you enjoyed it. Thanks Claire.
Wow, this is an amazingly well-made tutorial. Thank you so much. I'm looking forward to hopefully painting along soon.
Glad it was helpful. Thank you.
Haha I love the rinsor red lol you have the best background music I have heard btw
Love these.
I can’t find Windsor whit! LOL!!!!! You make me laugh.
Love the bloopers afterwards :} Leaves look amazing
If Louise is not happy with those paintings, she'd slip into manic depression with mine.😆
Lol- 😝. Thanks Valerie. I fussed with them too much and when I want to make a tutorial of a particular painting I want to keep my fussing and fiddling to a minimum. So they are rejects.
Beautiful 😍!
Charming as always, and the result are loveable to, I like Your clean result!
Beautiful.
The leaves came out lovely. Great job!
Thank you Diane. 😊
Beautiful
Love it! A great teaching!
Very helpful, thank you!
I love 💘💗 your videos! I love you showing outtakes too! Keep being awesome
I loved your class and you are simply adorable.
Such a pleasure to watch this lesson on triadic color schemes, Louise, thanks for continuing to share your journey with us. Love the bloopers as always! All the best to you & Dom 💜💛💚 ...oh, p.s., the glimpse of the Shetland Sheepdogs was very tantalizing, can't wait to see that as a tutorial!
Thank you Lydia. I'll paint a few more first I think. I'll try to minimise the fussing I do. 💕
Great teacher
Thank you
Great tutorial, thank you soo much
Glad it was helpful! Thank you Tom.
Baie baie geluk julle twee!! Dit was beautiful!! Mag julle lewe vorentoe vol geluk ek liefde wees!! 😘😘🙏🏻🥂
Your an awesome teacher!!!!! Thank you for sharing your talent 🎨👍🏼👍🏾👍🏻
That was great Louise. You'll always get a LIKE👍from me, you're terrific.!! Great teacher..your voice is quite mesmerising, I only find I actually forgot to watch what you were doing and had to rewatch...not a problem at all....best wishes from the west 🦘🦘🦘🦘
I love the out takes! Such a great sense of humor with very good instructional post! Thanks for the humor makes me remember this is fun!
Exciting tutorial using three colors. I'm going to give this a try and thanks so much.
Thank you for this and all your wonderful tutorials. I have watched three of your videos (one twice) so you’ve been admired a great deal this evening.
Beautiful work as always, Louise.
Thank you Margaret. 💕
I’m always on the look out for a new colour 😂
Lol- It's a nice wed old rinsor..... ❤️😝
I thought the Australian dog paintings looked lovely, but you need to be happy with it. That brush you were using sure has a nice point on it. Hope Dom is continuing to do well. Was hoping he would have a cameo appearance today :)
Thanks Mary. He's doing well. I use Da vinci Maestros series 35 - I love them. 💕
That's lovely, and especially the bloopers at the end 😂
Thank you! 💕
Thanks a lotttttt🙏.love all the leaves you have taught.soon will try all.
Thank you Nisha.
Excellent Demo. Thanks Louise.
Thank you Lydia. 💕
Fantastic, thx
Thanks Wendy.
I want to try a Triadic colour scheme - Thank you
It's very beautiful 😍
Thank you Albina.
maravilhoso demais! Aprendi muito com esta aula! Muito obrigada!!!
Basically the primary colors of cyan, magenta and yellow that make millions of colors.
In case this is still of interest, I personally use a triadic palette that is a pretty faithful watercolor set of CMYK:
- 653 transparent yellow (Windsor & Newton)
- 545 quinacridone magenta (Windsor & Newton)
- 326 phtalocyanine blue (Sennelier)
+ a bit of black for convenience
I own other colors but honestly rarely ever feel the need to reach for any of them, except my neons because... well, neons are fun :D

Such a helpful and informative basic tutorial. 👌
Glad it was helpful! Thank you Pam.
Thank you Louise, I’m excited to try this. I’m in my second year with Skillshare and it’s one of my favorite Apps!
Lovely Louise, thank you! Have a great weekend 😊💜
Thanks Sarah. You too.💕
Thank you Louise for this beautiful tutorial. I giggled at the end with your outtakes! They were great. I might start using 'siple'. ;D
Thankyou so much Louise - really appreciate your clear, accessible style of teaching! 😄
I'm so glad! Thank you Tricia.
Brava Louis,mi piace sempre guardarti dipingere. 🥰
Grazie. 💕
SO BEAUTIFUL Louise thank you for sharing!! Was looking for a video on color theory and yours in very insightful, great info!!💖🤗🙏🏼
Glad it was helpful! Thank you Aida.
So inspiring😍❤
Thank you Midha.
¡Qué maravilla! es usted una profesora excelente. Gracias por esta explicación tan detallada.
Lovely, Again! Thanks for sharing your talent. Be well, stay safe and continued improvement for Don.
That's very kind of you. Thank you Doris. 💕
Thanks for share this video👍
Beautiful as usual!! Im currently working on leaves so this is great!
Thanks for sharing the dogs... recently, I read that watercolour artists should redo a painting again and again until they feel like it’s finished. It’s nice to see someone with experience do this as well. Hope your hubby is doing well.
Thank you very much! He's doing really well. 💕
Love your work Louise, very inspiring, we get a bit lazy sometimes, this pushes us to greater heights. Thanks.
Yes it does! Thank you John. It's good to be constantly learning. 😁
I have been watching your videos for the past numbers of months and always enjoy and am inspired by your painting. Not sure when you started the out-takes at the end, but I love them, they get me to laugh out loud every time. Thanks! Plan to join your Patreon channel May 1. I watch on my Tv so have to go to a different device to comment.
I'm glad. We've got to laugh to stay sane. Wonderful! I look forward to it. Thank you Bayleigh. 💕
You great!
Those dog paintings are awesome tho
Love your bloopers at the end!
Thanks Kathryn.
Maravilhosa pintura, delicada! Amo a natureza e as suas dicas. Felicidades! Selma from Brazil. 🍂🌿🌱🌾😍👏👏👏👏
Muito obrigado.💕
Thank you 🌹🌹🌹😅
You're welcome. Thank you Lada. 😊
As always you make it look so siple and easy. ;)
Thanks Don. I hope you're having a good weekend.
Hi, loving your tutorials, thank you. Can I ask what brush you are using in this, like the look of it! Thanks
I'm VERY happy with your Shetland sheepdogs, so do feel free to send them along! HaHaHa.... I love learning all about color from YOUR learning all about color, and I've got the color book you referenced in my Wish List on Amazon for my upcoming anniversary. Doing everything possible to make sure the Husband sees it, too, so I should have it shortly. Love painting leaves, so can't wait to see more of this!! You look healthy enough for someone who's a painter/nurse, so it must be going well, I'm happy to see :)
Hi Vickie. Thank you 😝! I hope your husband sees it on the list. I'm very impressed with Dom's recovery. He's a trooper. He's hardly complained at all and he's made my nursing duties very easy. 😅 👍🏻💕
I purchased Stephen Quiller's book yesterday. I have other colour Theory books, I also learnt about colour theory when I was doing my diploma in graphic design..I'm looking forward in seeing what his book can teach me
beautiful. (you sometimes say to some of your paintings - esp. the older ones - overworked and such. and, although I can see what you mean, I still find them great. because they look like expert work. the precision. and, yes, I might not want to hang those on the walls - rather the other, rather loose ones, if they were in a book, I would flip through it from time to time, just to see, the greate pictures of animals and botanicals).
Thanks for this video. Very useful info. A while back you were looking for skin tone colours. I thought you may like to know that a triad of Winsor yellow, Windsor red and Windsor blue green shade (or prussian blue for more intense blue) are a great triad for skin tone esp as the blue makes nice clean shadows you can tilt toward warm or cool (Yong Chen uses these for many of his portraits). Hopefully it works for you if you give it a try.
Wonderful. Thank you for letting me know. I'll write that down and try it. 💕
My pleasure! You are so generous with your knowledge and skills and I love your style and how you make your works sing. Thankyou for sharing your process and thinking. I hope the colours work for you!
What size brushes did you use for this painting? Beautiful painting!
beautifull, just, simply, beatifull, superlatively beautifull
You're very kind. Thank you Mateus.
Loved it! → Subscribed! → Gracias
Awesome, thank you!
As you talk you always answer my questions a split second after I think of them! It reinforces the session. How do you do that? Thank you😊
Still learning too..l don’t see myself being as good as you but learning from you and applying what I know now with a mixture of whimsy like the way Diane Anton paints, it would be a unique mix with my personality…. I need to get that size brush you you use…it can be surprisingly delicate… it matters what your lighting is when you put down water 💦 lol…sometimes I can’t see it…🧐 I’m watching this through…I want to pick my own leaves….so when your mixing, do you dab the color off when you add your color? 🙏🏽🙋🏻♀️👍🏽Mia
I know this is an old video so this comment may go unanswered, but I was watching another video where you show how to prevent water lines by re-wetting the entire painted area. Does the technique shown early in this video, where you wet half the leaf but then paint short of that whole wet section, leaving a buffer wet area, prevent the water lines in this case? So the wet buffer will not create a water line because the yellow paint underneath is already set, and because no new paint is being applied to that area directly, a water line won’t form?
Is the book Making sense of color? Thanks
That paper isn't going to move or is it?
Great Videos señora.
Why didn’t u like the dog painting, Louise. I am very keen in understanding the reasons. It can be very eye opening imo.
What brushes are you using this tome? Looks like a much longer handle than usual. You know me, I loves me some great brushes. Great video as usual.
Thanks Shelly. The brushes I used for this painting were my #5 and #7 Maestros.
Wonderful tutorial, thank you. Can I ask, when mixing the green you say you used Winsor Lemon? Is this a slip of the tongue please? Did you use Winsor Lemon or Winsor Yellow please? Also interested in why you chose Winsor Blue red shade over Winsor Blue Green Shade please?
Whoops- sorry Angela. It was Winsor Yellow that I used on this painting. I use a lot of Winsor Lemon so it was a slip of the tongue. I only have Winsor Blue Red shade so that's why I used it.
@@LouiseDeMasi Thank you. And Thank you for all your wonderful tutorials. ❤
Спасибо большое ! ТОлько жалко- что нет автоперевода .
Will this be a tutorial on Patreon?
Yes Anne- Marie. I'll be posting it this week.
Thank you
