I would love to see you do portraits of people in different stages of life to see how you handle the wrinkles that are a part of aging. Lastly, I am so enjoying my Patreon membership that for next month I am bumping up to your top tier to show my appreciation for the immense planning, time and thorough explanations you include (and the many links and listed resources) in every tutorial you share. Thank you!!! ❤
Wow! This was so helpful! Breaking down the skin colors and why and how we perceive them is amazing. I will need to watch this about 100 more times to make it penetrate my thick skull. Your work is incredible! Thank you so much for sharing your amazing talent!
Wow! Thank you for sharing this fantastic video! I am currently a pastel artist but after watching you work, I think I'm going to cross over to watercolor. Thanks again!!
Thank you sp much for explaining the blue/green effect in subsurface scattering! I've only ever heard of subsurface scattering being how the blood adds red to the transparency of the skincells and never understood how/why the blueish green effect happened. Now that I know the sience behind it, I can make the shadows even better! Thank you!! People think I'm weird or trying to take a backwards and wrong approach in my art in needing to know the science behind why things work the way they do to make my art more accurate. I've seen people paint shadows on skin as literal blues and greens and always gound it to be wrong because I didn't understand why (that and maybe the examples had the blues and greens overpower the actual skintone to where it looked wrong lol) but now I know why and how to use it correctly!
This video was so helpful. I have just started to try painting portraits and I really would be interested in seeing videos about how to paint darker skin tones, particularly brown skin tones with a warm undertone. I find a lot of tutorials online just focus on fairer skin tones. When I have found tutorials on darker skin tones they are usually for dark skin tones with a cool undertone. I would like to understand how to better capture a warm undertone with darker skin.
I just want to say how glad I feel to have found your channel and your teaching! Awesome awesome tips! I'm so excited to learn with your tutorials. (beginner here.:))
What an extremely beautiful portrait this is, absolutely gorgeous 😍. The thing I love most about your work is the delicate and subtle shifting of colours that create so much depth and interest. The colour choices in all your work results in a mesmerising effect that's just an absolute pleasure to view. Thanks for sharing your wonderful tips with us, it's fantastic that you share so much knowledge with us its so inspirational. Thanks again .
I'm new at watercolor, but have ben doing it long enough to know portraits are what I want to excel in. I searched to see if you have other portrait videos or classes and didn't find any. If you ever start a portrait class, I hope I find it!
Is there anything you can’t paint?😄 beautiful painting Anna! Personally I hate portraits hahha just because I dislike people in general 😆 but I sure am able to appreciate your technique and skills! Beautiful
Im so scared 🥺 it's my first time to make a realistic portrait by watercolors. Bcs I'm making my mom's portrait i wanna give her a surprise i hope it will not ruined in the last🙁
I totally get the feeling! I am always intimidated when I start a portrait:) My recommendation is to do a study first, to work out the colors and main challenging points. This way you will take the pressure off the first try and make it into a far more enjoyable learning experience. Good luck!
This is stunning. I don't paint portraits as my chosen subjects are botanicals and birds, but watching you paint this masterpiece gave me hints about shadows and backgrounds in all paintings.
I would really like if u can explain the same concepts with dark skin tones. I always miss the shadow parts for darker skin tone, it would be helpful if u can guide in those topics.
😮 Wow. I don't know how I've missed this one? I thought I'd watched all of your videos multiple times. I got into trying watercolour because of seeing Agnes Cecile's portraits a few years ago. Faces were my goal but I still haven't tried one because they're scary. But I have learned more in this video than in four years of watching (hundreds?) of portrait tutorials. I always learn so much from you but didn't know you even did faces! I suppose this is my sign to try my hand with it. ❤ Might watch this again a few dozen more times first though. 😁 THANK YOU!!
Thank you Chrissie! I would go for my Quinacridones from the pink range. Quin Red, warmer Quin coral or cooler Quin Magenta (depending on the skin temperature 😊
I’m trying to pick up painting with watercolour just so I can paint my bf. We’re long distance and the only way I can think of bringing us closer at the moment is through my own imagination so this is really helpful. Thank you ❤
I think your portrait of the little girl is gorgeous and this is such a valuable video of tips! Thank you! 💕. I would also love to see a video re darker skin tones, please. Will you be doing a tutorial of this on your Patreon?
I truly appreciate your tutorials and tips. Drawing has been my favorite thing to do when I was young. amazing artist like you inspired me to draw again. And I am learning so much. Thank you!
This has been massively helpful for me! I bought a skin tone that I never end up needing, because I use the approximate combination of colors that you suggested! I'm still a beginner at watercolor, and when I attempted my first few pieces it looked awful, which was frustrating since I have a already have a long background in skretching and drawing with a pencil. Thank you ❤
I just got commissioned to do a portrait of my late mother in law. Portraits aren't really my specialties, I've only done a couple. Your tips are very helpful!
Amazing and gorgeous as always. Your work is impeccable and impressive. I was so happily surprised to see you do a portrait! I’d love to see a tutorial on olive skin with green/yellow undertones and dark brown eyes, common to Mediterranean coloring 🙂 Thank you for all of your helpful and thoughtful information ❤️
Wow, this is really great ! This channel is exactly what I was looking for. I am working on portraits in watercolor and found it very difficult, but I already learned a lot from tis video. Do you really think that if I keep going I will get better? And my compliments for your paintings. And of course I subscribed !
Hi Anna ! I have been looking for more portraits recently so this is a blessing to me 🩷🩷 thank you so much for this ! Take care and see you on Patreon 😉.
Thank you very much. For this beautiful video. Your voice sounds from heaven. Iam from Colombia. I start my project of watercolor this January 2024 let' it see how much i learn in 1 year.
Great video as always! Thanks so much for making it. Great advice and I learned quite a bit. Plus you have a very calm voice and it makes for a very relaxing enjoyable time. Much ❤️ from Nashville TN USA 🇺🇸
Thank you so much for sharing this! I’m new to watercolor portraits and this helped me so much. I would love it if you would share your approach to olive and darker skin tones as well.
I really liked your lesson. I just wonder why you waited to add the back ground color last. I learned a lot from your lesson:) amazing Question you are waiting for the portrait to try each step. I know it doesn't show while you are painting just making sure. Thank you just love your lesson.
Anna, this portrait is beautiful. I would be interested in seeing more portraits. I'm terrified of them but want to try one in watercolor. Your color palette is so interesting and I learned so much as you explained the process. I'm thankful you stressed the awkward stage. Thank you!
Thank you very much for the tutorial! I’m seeing it while walking with my dogs, now let’s see to where they led me at the time I was focused on my phone… I would appreciate also some tips for dark skinned people. Thank you!
Really nice tutorial. I noticed you use Opera Pink which I'm always afraid to use because I have heard it is a Fugitive. Is something I should worry about? Thanks!
Excellent video! I love the way you explain things. I've done portraits in oil, so doing them in watercolor has been so frustrating for me. But I love how watercolor portraits look so I do want to learn!
Thank you Myrna! I am on the other side of the journey just dipping my toes into oils (and waiting to hopefully move to a bigger space next year when I can finally set up an oil station to get more practice 😊💗)

I’d love to see another tutorial for more olive skin tones. 😊
Wish you would do more portraits! I particularly liked how you added green and blue commenting on blood patterns in skin tones
Thank you! That’s my plan for next year 😊 more portraits!
Let me know when they are up. I'm subscribed. I do a lot of portraits and am always looking for inspiration and tips. @@AnnaBucciarelli

Wonderful tutorial. Mixing colors is where I struggle and also when to use wet on wet as opposed to dry. I like that you tell us
Just an appreciation post for the quality of your video, editing, ambience, voice, frames, I rarely watched a so pleasant art tutorial. Thank you ❤
Thank you so so much ❤️ I spend days sometimes weeks editing every video and I really appreciate when someone notices the work 😊 it means a lot!🥹

Thank you for sharing your knowledge and talent! I love how you simplify the explanation of your paintings!
Thank you Debra! 😊

SAME BROOOOO
This is the best video about portrait painting that I have seen. Thanking for sharing your knowledge and talent.
What a great tutorial. Currently embarking on the watercolor portraits journey and find this video really helpful! Thank you. 💜
Anna, I would love to see more portraits. I hope you will be posting this and may others on your Pateron site. Beautifully done!!!
This is stunning. I don't paint portraits as my chosen subjects are botanicals and birds, but watching you paint this masterpiece gave me hints about shadows and backgrounds in all paintings.
I've watched so many videos on this subject, but THIS has unlocked the a new inspiration in me. Fantastic video
Thank you 😊 glad you enjoyed it
Beautiful! I do think this background takes away from the light and fairy like quality that you were able to achieve in the little girl
Thank you for your feedback! I totally see it 😊 in retrospect I could have left it without the background color and it would be ok on its own too 👌
Excellent, no nonsense guide. Many thanks. ❤
I would really like if u can explain the same concepts with dark skin tones. I always miss the shadow parts for darker skin tone, it would be helpful if u can guide in those topics.

Amazing artist and teacher
Your work is always beautiful and so is this painting. Which Alternative to opera rose would you reccommend, though?
Thank you Chrissie! I would go for my Quinacridones from the pink range. Quin Red, warmer Quin coral or cooler Quin Magenta (depending on the skin temperature 😊
Beautiful and how talented you are. I would love to learn more about different skin tones 😊💁🏼♀️💁🏽♀️💁🏾♀️💁🏿♀️❤
