Hi Karen! I LOVE your tutorials! So much creativity and so many wonderful techniques that can't be found anywhere else. Thank you!
Thank you Trina! I’m so pleased you think so 😀
After learning “Abstract City Scapes from you some months ago, this has become one of my most favorite ways to paint. I love the surprise effects that happen. Thank you for sharing your talent with us!
Thank you so much Cheryl! So pleased you are inspired to paint in this style
Enthralling colourful touch
Karen! This tutorial lead me to creating my first painting that leaves me intrigued and I keep looking at it! I've been painting almost a year now (retired and focused only on painting and calligraphy) and following you for about 9 months. I learn an incredible amount from you (your techniques, color, sketching, etc.) and have made many paintings other people enjoy. This is the first one that captured me. Thank you for your videos! The stick really helps in getting paint on the paper than using a card. Then use the card with the paint on the paper. :)
That’s wonderful to hear.
Thank you so much 😊

Thank you 😊
Super cool idea. I wish I wasn’t so busy today because I want to sit down right now and try it. I don’t have a popsicle sticks so I guess I will have to go get a popsicle! Thanks once again for a great tutorial
Great excuse to buy a popsicle! I hope you get a chance to paint this one! Thanks Cat!
Absolutely amazing art and great talent...
Best wishes!
Thank you 😊
I love your style. Thank you for showing how you stay calm when you get a result you don't want and you take the time to think about how you will deal with it. I just panic and think my painting is ruined. I will try and remember to stay calm when this happens.
You are so welcome! I’m so glad it was helpful 😊
Dear Karen - you make it look easy but I watch each video several times for practice and memory. Thank you for your wonderful demos .
Thank you so much Carol!
Your loose style fascinates me! Thanks for sharing this with us!

Thanks Karen, I had a go at this one. I had fun and it turned out quite well ! It was also fun to make such a mess too, as I’m such a tidy person 😆
So pleased you painted this one!! I agree Barbara it is so messy!!
The soft colors look like Northern Lights
Thank you 😊
Awesome!
Thank you Andrew 😊
i love these tutorials Karen, making shapes and designs on those gorgeous backgrounds. I want to do more nature based ones but hopefully I can transfer the idea.
I would love a tutorial on how to paint white subjects and also how to put together paintings of foregrounds middle ground and background. just ideas 😊
Thanks so much Caroline. Great suggestions btw… you may find this tutorial helpful with backgrounds/foregrounds etc…ruclips.net/video/I9fLyTaJEhY/видео.html

Enjoyed this painting, inspirational, loved how you share the run away paint and how to redirect it. 😊🥰🎨
Thanks so much 😊
Love the colours!
👏👏👏👏👏🎶📽️🖌️🎨...FANTASTIC CLASS...Karen...Thank you so much
Wonderful colours !
Oh i love it!!! You have enspired me to start my watercolour painting. Thank you 🙏
Karen; you are an inspiration. I've just started painting four weeks ago after years of wanting to but not daring because of a fear of failing. You have given me the confidence to start, and the knowledge to try different processes and techniques. My attempts so far have been modest, but at least they haven't (all) gone in the bin and I am encouraged to continue rather than give up. I now walk everywhere looking and thinking: how would I go about painting that? I can't thank you enough.
That is wonderful John! Thank you so much for sharing... I hope you continue to enjoy your artistic journey 😊
Love the way this looks!
Thank you 😊
Thank you so much! I do watch you tutorials more than once, they provide a substantial learning experience.
Thank you so much 😊
Beautifully done! I'm inspired to do some painting over the jubilee weekend so thank you for this! I do love abstracts and that process of waiting for the painting to reveal itself is so much fun! -
Thank you! So pleased you are inspired! I hope you had a chance to paint over the jubilee weekend!
Amazing!. Love it
Thank you 😊
Hi, very encouraging tutorial, thank you. Great advice to slow down and take time to allow the paint to do its thing. I usually panic, speed up with the result being a mess. Breathe. Love your attitude to experimentation. Thank you.
I’m so pleased you found this tutorial not o my helpful but inspirational😊
Ooh, more messy fun 🤭 thanks Karen, definitely going to do this 😄
Thank you! I hope enjoy painting this one 😀
Very nice! Love how the water flows with the paint!
Thank you 😊

Beautiful piece, your techniques are very interesting. Thank you.
So pleased you think so 😀
Teşekkürler, çok şey öğrendim videolarınızdan. Thank you so much.
Thank you 😊
Beautiful ❤️
Thank you! 😊
I love your abstract paintings with your unique techniques. I tried your abstract painting of city skyline with plastic cards and thoroughly enjoyed it. This one is even better with your guidance. I do have a question, if chosen paint that are more yellowish, brown or even green, would the painting turn out more abstract sunset, forest type? Just curious......
So pleased you were inspired to paint an abstract cityscape. Love your colour choice… would make a lovely abstract landscape 😀
gracias karen....he descubierto contigo el semi abstracto...me parece extraordinario ya que nos permite jugar con el humedo sobre humedo, y eso nos lleva a realizar obras increibles de arte. Por supuesto estoy con ansiedad de mejorar con tus enseñansas. nuevamente gracias
Gracias! I hope you enjoy learning and painting in this abstract style :)
❤
😮
Karen, please reference the type of surface you are painting on... it appears to be a finished wood that wipes clean easily?
All of the materials I am using are in the description. I’m using 300gsm water paper.
I loved this video, thank you for posting. Just getting set up to have a go myself. I've lost my mojo a bit and hoping this will inspire me. The compote blue is a beautiful shade - what brand of paint have you used for this?
sorry, hadn't realised mission gold was the brand.
I hope this inspires you and you get your mojo back 😀
@@KarenRiceArt it definitely did, loved doing it. I'm all set up to do another one today, the winter tram scene. Love the way the paint moves, so random. Thank you for your inspiration.
@@annehumphreys57 Have fun Anne :)
I always forget to tilt my board to get effects, the digital watercolor program i have has tilt on it to use too, forget to use it there too lol
It can really produce some interesting effects 😀
