Thank you so much for your beautiful words! ❤ I'm so happy you enjoyed it. Sending lots of light and positivity your way as well! 🥰

Eu ameiiii ❤ perfeito obrigada por compartilhar sua sabedoria.

Wow, thank you so much for such a kind and encouraging message! 🥰 It truly means the world to me to hear that my video resonated with you, it really brightens my day. Sending lots of love back to you in Scotland! ❤🥰

I have the UK version of this book and the paper is heavy enough to prevent bleed-through, but it does require careful painting. Using a minimal amount of water and a bit of patience will help you get the best results! 😊

So happy to know that ❤ Thank you!😊

Thank you so much for your kind words! ❤ It means a lot to me 🥰

🥰 Coloring books can definitely hold up if you're mindful about using minimal water and layering slowly. It’s a fun way to paint and Paul Rubens is a great choice for coloring books. Alien Worlds by Kerby Rosanes is stunning and I’m sure it’ll be amazing with colored pencils! Have fun and happy painting! 😄

If the coloring book paper is lightweight or not designed for watercolors, I’d definitely recommend testing on a page first or starting with small areas using a minimal amount of water. If it doesn’t work as you’d like, you can always switch to colored pencils and continue from there-no worries! 😊 It just takes a careful start, and testing is always a great idea to see how the paper handles the paint. Have fun experimenting!

Thank you so much! ❤😊

Thank you so much for your lovely words! ❤😊

Thank you so much for your kind words! 😊 Watercolor in a coloring book is such a fun way to experiment-you should definitely give it a try! ❤ Welcome to the channel! 🥰

Thank you so much! ❤ I’m glad you enjoyed it! I might turn this into a series😊

Thank you so much! ❤ I love the idea of making it a series. Definitely something I’m planning to do! 😊

❤😊

Thank you so much! 😍 I’m so glad to know that, and I definitely plan to make more videos! Your support means a lot! 💖

Thank you so much! 😊 I didn’t prep the page beforehand, I gained courage by practicing a lot 😊 If the paper is lighter weight, I usually recommend testing it first or using minimal water to avoid any issues. It’s all about experimenting and seeing what works best for the paper 🥰

Yes, that’s true! 😊

Thank you so much for your kind words! 😊 I’m so happy you enjoyed the video 🥰

Thank you so much for your kind words! 🥰 And yes, I’ll definitely keep filming whenever I can! 😊 I didn’t wet the paper first because I was worried it might warp or get damaged. I just applied the paint directly to the paper and worked a bit faster-that’s all! 😊

@@blackaneri thx. I am going to try this technique in one of my miljon books, lol. Klara Markova, Gugeli might be great to.

For covering lines after watercoloring? Absolutely! 😊 I just don’t have any gouache at the moment and wanted to use a technique with this particular set of watercolors. 🤗

The size of the brush definitely makes a big difference. It needs to be a detail brush (I use a 3/0 for this). 😊 Even then, I sometimes use too much paint or go over the lines. But that’s okay! You can always fix it later by layering or going over it with another medium. 🤭

Thank you so much! 😊 It’s not a waterproof coloring book, but I use watercolor carefully to avoid too much water, which helps prevent any damage to the paper. Thanks for watching! 💖

Oh no, I was worried that some people might not enjoy the music! 😅 That’s completely understandable. I usually go with what feels fitting and pleasing to me, and since this is free music with a limited duration, I worked with what I had 🤭. However, there’s an option to turn on the subtitles, so you can still follow along even if you prefer to mute the music. Thank you so much for watching 🥰

@ no offense… I adore your art 🤍🕊️

​@@FrancesMarionz Oh no, I totally understand! 🤗 Some people might find the music distracting if they need to focus. Personal preferences vary, and that’s totally normal. Thank you again for your kind words! 🥰

​@@blackaneri I agree this music just didn't work. It was startling how much of a relief it was when it went quiet in the middle of the video. When the music restarted I almost walked away and abandoned the rest of the video.

The paper will inevitably distort a little when using watercolor, as most coloring book paper isn’t designed specifically for wet mediums. However, if you use less water and work carefully, you can minimize the distortion. Johanna Basford’s books have fairly thick paper, which helps, but they’re primarily made for pencils and pens. If you choose to use paint, just keep in mind that the paper won’t stay perfectly flat, and that’s okay! 😊The vibrant, unique results with paint are worth it for many people. It all depends on what works best for you. 🥰

Thank you so much, Cécile! 😊 I’m so happy you like it 🥰

Nope, this one came straight from my imagination! 😃 You might notice I messed up the shadows and highlights a little, but I like to think it’s just part of the magic. 😂

I agree, without imperfection we can't appreciate our wins. Your art has a special quality to it. Great Job!!

Wow, thank you so much for your kind words! 😍😊 I’m sure your version will look amazing - enjoy the process and have fun with it! Thank you again for your lovely feedback! 🤗🥰

Oh, thank you so much! 😊❤

Thank you so much! 🥰I mainly wanted to use Rubens watercolors for everything, but to cover the black lineart, I needed an opaque layer, so I opted for white gesso. White acrylic would work as well, as long as it’s water-based and becomes water-resistant once dry. This allows me to paint over it with watercolors if needed. Any acrylic or gouache paint is perfectly fine for this purpose ☺ I’d actually encourage you to experiment and find what works best for you, as you might discover your own perfect method for painting in coloring books.🥰 I have a few different techniques I use, depending on what I need for the project. I hope this helps! ☺

@blackaneri Thankyou Irena. Yes the best way is to experiment💫💫💫

Thank you so much! ❤🥰

That's a great question! I forgot to show the other side in this video, but I'll cover that in the next part 🤗 When you paint carefully, there’s usually no bleed-through, and you can easily cover the other side with mixed media without any issues. Johanna Basford's books have fairly thick paper, but they’re primarily designed for pencils and pens, like most coloring books. If you want to use paint, you’ll need to accept that the paper will not stay perfectly flat, and there may be some minor bleed-through if you're just starting out. That said, paints have their own advantages, like faster coloring and vibrant results. Ultimately, it depends on your preferences. 😊

@ thank you.

Thank you so much for your lovely comment! 🥰I'm really glad my explanations are helpful. I actually thought I might have missed a few things, but I plan to continue with this and will try to cover more soon! 😄

Yes true

That’s such a sweet thing to say, thank you! 🥰I'm so glad you find it relaxing. 😊❤

Yes true 👍

Thank you so much for your kind words! I'm glad you like it. 🥰

Yes😊

Thank you so much for your sweet words! 😊 I'm happy you do! 🥰❤

Thank you so much for your kind words! 😊I painted directly onto the page. Johanna Basford’s books have fairly thick paper, which holds up well with careful painting.

Thank you so much! 🥰😊
