  • If you love watercolour but hate 'overworking' then in this full length Rose Tutorial video I share my little hack on how to prevent overworking your painting to keep it fresh.
    I have listed all the materials below, but please use what you have.
    Paper: Arches 300 gsm Rough Pressed bit.ly/3yvSYc5archesroughpaper
    Palette: Jacksons bit.ly/3uIH27hminipalette
    Paint/Inktense:
    Permanent Red - Mijello Mission Gold bit.ly/permanentredmijello
    *Quinacridone Permanent Rose bit.ly/quinpermrose
    Olive Green - Mijelllo Mission Gold bit.ly/mijelloolivegreen
    * Please note that in the video I call this 'quinacridone rose madder' but this is the colour used.
    Inktense Pencils (these pencils are ink based and very vibrant)
    Chilli Red bit.ly/chillired
    Shiraz bit.ly/mijelloolivegreen
    White bit.ly/antiquewhite
    Brushes
    Number 8 Round - Etchr bit.ly/etchrbrushsetroll (from this set)
    Numbers 2 and 4 Snowdrop pointed rounds - Rosemary & Co bit.ly/snowdropbrushes (mine are the short handled version)

    Beautiful finished rose! I have to admit that I prefer you talking through most of the video. I am so focused on watching you paint, that by the time I realize there are words at the bottom, and I change where I am looking, I do not get finished reading the text, and I am not a slow reader. I do better with the audio instructions.

      Thank you for the feedback. I’m dipping between both as doing voice over work is very difficult for me sometimes but I’ll still do them, just not every week, but obviously the Patreon ones will be with the spoken voice. You can, of course stop the video to read the words and then carry on, just a suggestion of course. Thank you for your feedback I really appreciate it

    That's how a rose should look. Amazing work Helen as always. I have been on the fence about Inktense though seeing how they can work with watercolours and the fine details you can get with them and they are lightfast, I ordered a set.🤣 So thank you, Helen, for helping me decide. I am looking forward to trying this rose for myself when the pencils arrive. It's also given me ideas for the Kingfisher birds I am currently doing. (Oh and I finished the purple feather mask painting too) x

    🧩 I’m having a little hardship trying to read the on-screen information while (at the same time) watching the Artist paint.
    - It seems to be a tricky situation. 😊
    - Is it just me, or are there any others that find it a little overwhelming/ challenging?
    - In order to catch it all, I stop my device when needed, then restart it again.
    - But to be honest, it takes more time to do that, than it takes to watch the full video.
    Blessings 💕
    The painting is absolutely stunning ‼️

      From time to time I have to do text on screen. Sometimes outside factors make doing voice overs difficult. I’m adhd and autistic and sometimes my brain just won’t let me as well as noise outside. I do my best to do voice overs when I can. Indeed out of the 150 odd videos I have here only four have txt on screen. I hope you’ll continue to watch the tutorials that I put out and this hasn’t put you off.

    This looks lovely. I have a set of Inktense that I bought about 5 years ago and have barely used them. I am a beginner watercolourist and this use of the Inktense looks awesome. I will have to try them. I am wondering if they stain the brushes permanently and need to have a separate set of brushes for them?

    • @helencampbell
      @helencampbell  Год назад +2

      They are absolutely fine to use with your regular brushes. They do stain my white ones here. These snowdrop rounds, but watercolour will stain them as well so it doesn’t affect the performance of them. Use any watercolour brush and it will be fine.

    I would like to try painting this lovely rose, Rae. I do have a question. Now that you have been using the Intense pencils for quite a while now, do you think you think you would still apply the pencil directly to the paper, or would you lay down color on your plastic palette, dilute with water, and then apply with a paint brush?

    • @helencampbell
      @helencampbell  21 день назад +1

      Hi Vicki. I would definitely use the plastic palette as the colour goes much further and you get a lot more pigment but if you don’t have one, paper will work as demonstrated in the video. X
