Thank you Kristin that was very relaxing watching your technique in the landscape evolve. When you put the darker values in I thought it gave it so much depth. You have a very easy voice to listen to and interspersed with the music was lovely. Love your choice of colours and it is encouraging to watch in real time. I can’t watch too many sped up time videos it is a headache. Bless you 🙌
Thank you! I’ll write it in the caption as well, but here’s the outline and some of my thoughts: 1. Sky Weather- rainy, sunny, cloudy, stormy etc. Time of day- sunrise, sunset, mid day, night etc. Objects- birds, planes, tall trees that will break up into the space 2. Background Height- mountains, buildings, trees on the horizon, Perspective- is there anything far away that will also come into the foreground. Train tracks, road, fence, tree line, buildings etc. focal point- what are we focusing on in the background? A building, a tree, water, an animal, nothing? Etc. 3. Foreground Focal point- what catches our attention at the front? A person, road, fence, building, plants, animals etc. details- things in the foreground are crisp and in focus compared to objects in the background. This is where I list things I need to make sure have sharp details i.e. grass from this tutorial Movement- this could be the shape of the grass, the fence coming into focus, a road curving across the front like in this video, leaves that are falling, a bird on flight in the foreground etc. Then I do a little color sample swatch for each section to make sure the colors are cohesive. I hope that helps 💕
What a beautiful landscape you painted. I’ll have to watch this a thousand times. Your preparation is unlike anyone’s I’ve seen. You so clearly show how things evolve in your painting. Yes, there was a point in which I would have thrown it away as well. I’m so glad you didn’t. You are a super teacher. Thank you!
This is excellent! Thank you for sharing. I'm only a beginner, but I will slowly use your very well explained and executed instructions and play around. Thank you, thank you!
thanks for saying that watercolor has a lot of ugly stages….never heard anyone else acknowledge that. Just need more patience with the ‘ugly.’ you’re a beautiful painter and a grace-filled teacher.
Love this painting and your whole formula process. I want so much to paint my own paintings instead of just following someone else's, but I don't know where or how to start. This was very helpful and I hope you'll do more examples like this. Thank you so much!!
This is lovely! I paint minis to give away as encouragement, and now you've given me a "reference piece" for a specific mini I've had in mind! (But I use white paint pens instead of scratching off.) 🙋♀️❤🙂
Kristin you have such an amazing talent! Thank you for sharing your knowledge with us ❤
I really enjoy watching you work. In doing so, you show that it’s a process… not instantaneous.😊
Thank you, that's so perfectly said! Lots of patience with watercolor haha

Thank you for this tutorial. Very Nice art work. Easy for me to understand. Your explications are interesting and clear 😊
