    By far the best Bokeh tutorial I've watched (and I've watched quite a few in the past couple of days). The subtlety and depth you've created is something I've haven't seen done successfully in other tutorials. Also, I wouldn't have thought those muted tones would have been so damn effective. Thanks so much, really appreciate you sharing your knowledge. All the best from Australia

    Thank you so much! I feel like you explained it so well that I don't even have to watch it again. Especially the "make sure it's a non-staining color" part. Now I'm off to find a circle and dig thru my paints for the right one!

    @stockos 3 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    have a question about colors… what could be the rule of colors layers.. to have same effect but with blue shades or red shades….would you go with a dark blue - pair with a very light or more turqoise blue ?

    • @NicholesArtNook
      @NicholesArtNook  2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      The technique would be the same with whatever colour family you choose. You would want to choose a lighter blue and a deeper blue or the same with reds. Keep in mind that staining colours will be harder to lift. I hope this helps.

    @jrightone 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Sigh, yet another effect in watercolors that simply does not work for me. I follow all the instructions to the letter, I mean, I am literally copying you. And yet, after making sure the paper is "bone dry" (which I achieve by using a heat gun just like you), when I go to put the circle down and wet said circle, nothing happens. It doesn't lift the paint, just gets the paper wet. I officially give up on christmas cards this year.

    • @scatmanjohnfan22
      @scatmanjohnfan22 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      I think perhaps you are not using real watercolor paints, or are using the wrong type of paper. What kind of tools did you use?

    • @NicholesArtNook
      @NicholesArtNook  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      I agree! I struggled with this as well until I got the tools right! Make sure you are using cotton paper and watercolour paint that lifts easily.

      well just use different sizes of circles then, obviously!!
