Don't leave it to chance, here's what I do.

Here we will take a look at my process to ensure success, well hopefully! You never really know with watercolour, which is why we need to help ourselves as much as possible.

I promised myself that when I retired ( I've been in Education for 40+ years) I would make time to do and learn art. I had dreamed of doing perfect botanical images. I have painted in acrylic and oils but have been daunted by water colours... so I decided (?) to choose water colours. I feel strongly that water colour paints should be allowed to flow and mix (otherwise use crayons!) Thus I am delighted to find your channel....loose water colours. I love it that you say "Don't worry too much" "Let's change the photo" etc. I also appreciate how you talk through the concepts of : hard and soft edges, leading the eye into and around the painting, lights next to darks, sparkle etc. I am learning so much from you , Robert. Thank you.

[@RobertMeeArtist]

Thank you. I really appreciate your feedback, it helps me to create videos with the right kind of content 😊

What a great story. I had somewhat of a plan to do the same thing. Retire, paint and try to sell my work. I was a professional gardener for twentyish years. I also wanted to try my hand at botanicals. (There are some wonderful botanical illustrators on youtube.) I arrived here in Arizona eight years ago and haven't stopped painting since. I paint desert landscapes and barrio paintings. I wish you lots of luck on your watercolor journey. Cheers from the desert.

@@danthomas6587 Interesting to hear peoples journeys in art. Good luck with your painting 👍

As I always ended up in painting details over details I was searching how to be able to paint loose. It is so increadibly easy and so hard as well, but so much more fun!!!! I am superglad that I found your tutorials, they are wonderful inspiring to just let things go. Thank you so much!❤

[@RobertMeeArtist]

You are so welcome! Good luck 👍

[@DianeMeadows-h9r]

This is how I would really like to paint in watercolour--- less is more. Thank you for sharing. Your painting has turned out so good.

[@RobertMeeArtist]

Thank you. It took me a long time and many paintings to realise that the less you paint will make it look so much better and quite often more realistic!

[@delphinewood7519]

Thanks for your planning stage. So well explained with the “why’s” of each step.

[@RobertMeeArtist]

I am glad that you found it useful 😀

[@termite7790]

Turned out really good. Thanks

[@RobertMeeArtist]

Thanks, planning really helped me with this painting.

T is so nice to see exactly how you do these loose cityscapes. I have always had trouble not making buildings not look like a photograph, but it’s the thing I like most about watercolor. Thank you Robert!

[@RobertMeeArtist]

Glad you enjoyed it! Good luck with your buildings 😀

[@rhondi123]

I'm un italian lady from Roma. Your pictures are very interesting. I like your picture fantastic. I'm autodidatta. ❤ i hope learn from you!

[@RobertMeeArtist]

That is great. Thanks for watching and good luck 👍

[@LloydM100]

Hi from NZ. Would this same process work for acrylic? I'd love to see you do this same piece in oils.

[@RobertMeeArtist]

The painting process is very different for oils and watercolour, however the same rules apply such as tonal values etc. I probably will get around to this scene in oils at some point! 😀

[@Sdj1721]

Can i ask the angle of your painting board you set up? Love your way of showing the whole process of work with photo cropping❤

[@RobertMeeArtist]

It's about a 30 degree angle. Thanks for watching 😀

[@Sdj1721]

@@RobertMeeArtist Thank you so much! Blessings!

[@pen-N-ink]

[@RobertMeeArtist]
