I had to stop video and comment.....you've just shown us the beauty and drama in Brusho use. I'm happy with a decision I made early in my Watercolour Adventures..... I will never be responsible for ever opening a Brusho container. I am firm in my self-awareness that, for me, Brusho is a spectator sport only. I know I will never be sorry. Now....back to the rest of this (another) gem-filled video. Thanks Michele, for all you do, and doing it so very well.
Great techniques..I know your using hot WC paper but what brand are you using...I now realize why my WC pencils dont do so well on cold WC paper😬🤦♀️🤷♀️did not know that WC pencils do better with a smoother I mean you've probably said that idea...lol but I've learned so much this past yr I might have just compartmentalized it in my limited pandemic brain cells and never could recall the bit nugget of info till I saw how smoother your drawing / painting are....on hot...lol🤪paper, not that using WC pencil on cold wc is wrong I just notice like you said that my drawings/ painting always looks a bit wonky due to the paper being a bit rougher ....lolololol......mikelle New York mom😏😷👩🎨✍🎨
During the watercolour course ( after Poppy completion ), found your „backgrounds video“, super! Now I can add backgrounds! Also have heard „ brusho“ mentioned often but, have avoided it. Now, you‘ve shown us how to use it will try it out. Thanks.
always excellent ideas and quality of videos, Michelle. Although it seems like Brusho is more trouble than it is worth with the mess. Our home is a "glitter free zone" due to the ongoing mess. I open Christmas cards over the garbage can and toss any with glitter. It seems that glitter (and now Brusho) are the herpes of the crafting and art worlds. You pass it on, but never get rid of it yourself! 😀
I am so curious to see videos on how well Derwent Graphitints can work side by side other watercolour pencils.... good ideas. There are few references for this
Thanks Michelle! I have got to try out the masking tape technique. I am working on a mushroom painting and there is a branch that would be ideal to try and get a bark texture using longitudinal strips of tape. Also I saw your fuzzy tape method in another of your videos and I use that all the time now.
Bram Stoker's Dracula would be one of them, got to love a bit of Keanu... but I am also fond of a 1970s hammer horror with wobbly castle walls and bats on strings :-)
@@IntheStudiowithMicheleWebber This is honestly my favourite interpretation of Dracula in movie! I've watched too many versions but Bram Stoker's Dracula would always be in my memory as one of the best.
Mixed media is not something I’ve done but I have been using watercolour pencils, watercolour paints and pencils on their own. I’d love more videos on combining the methods please. These ideas were great, thank you.
Thanks again Michelle, I love the Brusho, it looks fun to use. I'm about to start a painting with a hazy background so these techniques came at the right time. Love the nails by the way😊
This was so great and informative. Thank you! I have had such trouble knowing how to add backgrounds after the subject is done. I just love watching you and the paintings were so stunning. I haven't used brusho yet, but am looking forward to trying it.
I love the colorful background options! I have some brusho and I may just get those out again and give it another go. Thanks again for your inspiring work.
I really want to do one of your beginner courses now! I've been a wannabe artist for decades and it's I do something more about it. Thank you for this video!

Yes more background videos pls. Kudos for this one.
And I can't watch horror at all....I can't sleep after.
Lots of people say that. I don't even think about it. I am kind of always aware that it's just acting 😏
I'm disappointed that this has nothing to do with watercolour pencils. That's what I was expecting from the title.
Sorry Melanie, there are lots of watercolor pencils videos on this channel if you look under playlists
Love the backgrounds! They madea huge difference in leveling up the flowers. Thanks for showing us to accomplish it and making it look easy.
No problem!
I did the background to the calla Lilly it is really good. I am enjoying my watercolour pencils . I will try the daffodils thank you.
Looking forward to backgrounds for my flowers. Only have two of them done. The rose has a background already
Thanks Michele. I'm actually waiting for some brusho to arrive lol. Maybe some weird Dr. Seuss flowers. Lol. Along with weird landscapes. ☺
Have fun!

It's probably Saunders waterford hot press :-)

I just ordered the Derwent Graphitints. Thinking about ideas now 😃
Lovely. I haven’t tried Brusho yet and it looks a bit touchy.
From the title i thought uou were going to use watercolor pencils for your backgrounds.
Since glitter can be found on me 3 days later, I’m a bit leery of brusho but I’ll brave it one day...😝

When my daughter was small I was introduced to the horror that is glitter glue. Goodbye cream rug!
Today was Michelle day!!! Spent the day in bed watching your videos. You make awesome videos!
Yay! Thank you!
Great background video. Loved the tape trick on the last one. Awesome effect. Can’t wait to try.
It's very cool, you will like it!
Thank you agian for an awesome and helpful video. Yes I would like you to show us backgrounds with other media. Have a wonderful day!
Thank you! You too!
The pansey background looks like a shade garden where a pansey would grow ideally.
Thanks. A great background tutorial. I would really like to see some more background ideas.
I have a video of background ideas planned for the nearish future :-)
I like the whole look and would like to see you do more backgrounds.
Another good video, nice watching the Brusho,i might get mine out!!! Thank you.
Enjoy it!
I'd love to see a pastel background.
Really Very beautiful painting
Many many thanks
Just love the tape background. Thanks
Glad you like it!
Thank you for the demonstrations and wonderful ideas.
Glad you like them!

Great suggestion!
I agree with LeAnne! Would love to see something done with Graphitints. Thank you for this WONDERFUL tutorial ❤️
Brusho looks like great fun!
Masking tape - awesome!

Thank you for reply....
As always so very useful advice. Thank you.
Glad it was helpful!
What a great background lesson, thank you!
You're very welcome!
Those are gorgeous! I'm curious because you mentioned it - what are some of your favorite horror movies?
Bram Stoker's Dracula would be one of them, got to love a bit of Keanu... but I am also fond of a 1970s hammer horror with wobbly castle walls and bats on strings :-)
@@IntheStudiowithMicheleWebber This is honestly my favourite interpretation of Dracula in movie! I've watched too many versions but Bram Stoker's Dracula would always be in my memory as one of the best.
Soft pastels ...fun!
I have some tonic shimmer powder that would be a pretty effect like the brusho. I want to get brusho too eventually
It's a good thing for pandemic because I discovered you
I love your teaching style. Thank you for sharing your gifts with the world. Gos bless you! I'm inspired.
Thanks 😊
Mixed media is not something I’ve done but I have been using watercolour pencils, watercolour paints and pencils on their own. I’d love more videos on combining the methods please. These ideas were great, thank you.
I do have a video on using both together, if you look in playlists watercolor pencils
Thanks again Michelle, I love the Brusho, it looks fun to use. I'm about to start a painting with a hazy background so these techniques came at the right time. Love the nails by the way😊

You are very welcome ☺️
Oooh I’ve never used Brusho before but now I see it in my future - yum yum 😂
Absolutely fantastic and inspiring.

You are very welcome 🙂 best of luck to you!
Yes, please. I’d love to see more background techniques.

I'm glad :-)
You are a awsome instructor!
Glad you think so!
Would love to see more backgrounds as I struggle with that element of painting.
Noted ☺️
Brusho! Gotta have that!
It's fun!
I not only enjoy your art, but your sense of humor, too!
