Captivating Gouache Seascapes - Course Trailer
Hi Kolbe @thiswritingdesk i I love your art journal with the Hokusai wave cover .... where can I get it
that was incredible!! I'm SO going to paint this soon! you are an amazing teacher, my goodness!
I did it!!! and it turned out great. Thank you for being such a good teacher!!!
Thank you for the advise! Perfect!
You are such a talented teacher! This "Mountain Meadow" is so beautiful, thank you for the challenge! 🥀
I've been psyching myself out for *months* trying to get back in the creative groove. I couldn't even doodle. I've been swatching for the last few days and thanks to you, today I have a painting in an old sketchbook that I'm determined to use up. It looks like hell, but not nearly as bad as I expected it to. I'm going to keep going with the daily challenge/tutorials. Thank you for making these lessons available and brief (much less daunting to me personally). I already bought your book, too.
What green do you use???
I’d be happy to watch a longer, un-sped-up video. It would be easier for me to follow, and then maybe I’d have a better chance of making something resembling this gorgeous painting. ❤️🧡💛
Gorgeous!! I so wish I could visit that little slice of heaven.
You explain things so well and teach in a fun way. I've learned so much from your channel. Great channel
Finally a very helpful channel for water painting landscapes! I'm 57 and an absolute beginner. Thank you so much for sharing this with us! I'm looking forward to lesson 2!
This is absolutely my favorite. Love it! 😮❤
Such a beautiful tutorial! Thank you
I loved this. It looked intimidating at first, but I appreciated your calm demeanor and your constant encouragement. I did it!, and I learned so much. Thank you!
Wow this was tough. Will try again
Love these tutorials- thank you! Question: Did you coat the paper with more water before the 2nd layer?
Your value piece is breathtaking. That is always my favorite time of day. I will definitely practice this method. Thank you. ❤
I can't wait to try this! When you say "foliage" brush, is that I special type of brush? I'm still a beginner and learned so much from this video!
Wow it is wonderful, I love it and will give it go. Thanks for sharing your art with us. ❤
Had to use a hair dryer to dry things out! Was too impatient!!!
Hi Kolbie, chiming in late. Painted the night sky 3 times yesterday. Thanks so much for opening up all these techniques!! Ana E
I really enjoy your teaching style! And at the end, the Loved and Learned. What a great way to leave negativity out of the picture 😁 We are all on a journey
This came out so serenely beautiful!! Feel like I'm right there gazing out at this magical scene! ^_^
Love this simple ocean sea, you take the stress out of all of these challenges!
What’s with bizarre music?
Phew, birds feel simple but take a lot of practice for me!
Hi Kolbie. Thankyou for your tutorials . I’m loving them.. except today’s, I failed miserably. I’ve never used gouache before apart from splashing stars. I can’t seem to get it right. I will try this one again once I’ve finished the complete challenge. ❤
"imperfection is realistic" I am definitely fighting my brain against this. I hope water colour helps with this. Metaphor is so helpful for the brain to learn new ways to think.
Im late to the party here but I love the way you teach. Thank you for making these videos! Can't wait to do the challenge.
Hi Kolbie, I am in tears. Happy Tesrs. When you said, this is time well spent, I felt my whole soul relax. Until now, I didn’t recognize how tense I was painting. I am a beginner. I can be hard on myself to do well. Some how, your words broke through the unknowing restrictions I put upon myself. I took up watercoloring for joy. I thank you. 🙏🏼
love this 😍 thanks
I love this one ! So fun - and I had an easier time following than I did on Day Three. I'll do this little painting over and over again- and experiment with different details/colors. 🙂
This was a tough one. I made two attempts and wasn't happy with either. I feel like this one is as much about managing water as it is about perspective. Distant trees are smaller and lighter - got it. But how do you integrate wet on wet and wet on dry, how to make those decisions along the way? I needed more of that. Still, tomorrow is another day and I love your painting and teaching style. On to Day Four tomorrow!!
So beautiful. But I do like the birds, it bring life to the scene. Thank you !
Beautiful! I'm tempted to try it. :)
My struggle is getting the value of the first layers light enough without ending up with too much water. That said, I will do this little painting over and over. I just love it. Having a jigsaw puzzle going at the same time helps with the patience! 😂
Learn to tolerate imperfections is my new mantra!
Love watching you paint and the fact you explained an error (which no one else would have guessed) is a massive confidence boost for leaners. My problem is white page syndrome. Just starting is hard for me! Your videos are helping me get over this! Thank you!
This was very inspiring!
This is a fantastic tutorial. Should have thousands of likes!!!
Das sieht wahnsinnig toll aus
I love your work and kindness sharing with me how to create beautiful master pieces. Thank you so much
Watercolor
Will have ago tomorrow 😅
Absolutely love this kind of videos, thank you so much 🙏
This is really hard to do 🥴 Thoughts like a waste of paper-paint-time etc. etc. etc. are going through my mind 😟 So this is a very confronting exercise and therefore a great one 😂 Thank you so much for this brilliant video it opened my eyes 🙏
I cannot begin to tell you just how overjoyed I am in finding your channel!! You are not only a lovely artist, you are a pure natural at teaching!! Thank you so much!❤❤❤
Hi, I’m Lance. I just signed up but all I seem to find is the conversation part but nothing works. Cannot find projects. Can you help?😊
that was hard. I will have to do more times.
Thanks Kolbie, your video is easy to follow, I am happy with the result and I love paines grey 😍 Thanks for inspiring!
Amazing tutorial! You’re such a talented artist. Congratulations on your work and your teaching. Thank you for sharing it with all of us !
