@@KarenRiceArt yes dear yes dear!!! all miMassage clients when I’m providing massage I’m always talking about my new watercolor, hobby and how much you are such a highlight in my newfound artistic findings
@@KarenRiceArt I’m sure you know there are MANY watercolor artists here in the “you”niverse, but I have to say as a beginner, your work always inspires me. I’m drawn to your content like a moth to a flame. Your instruction and technique are flawless! Thank you ☺️
If you have chronic pain like me with fibromyalgia, in my case that can caus unwanted tremmors, I HIGHLY recommend you try a table easle. It doesn't have to be huge, depending on size you paint in, I use a paintersbox; But I do have a larger one for bigger papers; it prevents backpain from having to lean forward and prevents your arm from touching the paper. There are various brand of this available and my paintersbox was around 20euro, just see what works. If you are tiny like myself, I use a kitchen step for high shelves I otherwise cant reach, use it under your feet when you paint; it will reduce strain on your legs and back; makes a world of difference, guaranteed.
@@KarenRiceArt Im just sharing so others dont have to waste time in search. Im used to my condition by now; it just means adept and go forward as going back doesn't quite work. Tried al the steps from denial to rage trust me on that one though lol. Only human right :)
@@KarenRiceArt You mentionned tremmors so, despite it being off topic maybe nice if others can add their tips in the comments they can feel free to do it under my original first comment; as for daylight lamps and such; i just baught mine in local woodware store; but there is more to it; chronic illness often means disabillity welfare and thus low income; check the local healthcare stores; wrist support nail stylists use work wonders; dont just look at your art stores as they will often charge you a whooping price that is ridiculous and rather feels like insult on injury then spending time on things we actually like: the art of Making & Creating.

Hi Karen! I like the way you get down to the chase up front. I found your explanations very clear. Love watching you draw and listening to your calm voice while demonstrating various techniques. The final drawing is beautiful and tells of experience. Also it's helpful to remind or even warn against the ease with which one can be carried away. you usually say it's a good way to wind up the painting with doing a bit of splashing. This time around while you were telling "I'm building up the detail" and putting more and more dark, I paused wondering - and here's a question that pops up - if there was a way to switch from repeatedly putting more dark to places where the light was supposed to show up or shine through from behind the trees. I mean, the idea is to paint wet on wet, all in one sitting, to bring out the light behind, isn't it? I am mentally shivering going forward to a point where I give it a go and where I need to stop before I've overdone the dark. Specifically, the left and right-hand bottom quarters . Isn't there a technique to make sure I don't overshoot and miss when I' d better stop making it darker? Thanks in advance for your answer, and all the wonderful atmospheric artwork you do on the channel.
Great question! I shall answer would be less is more. Try to limit your layers of colour maybe start with a light wash. Let it dry then a midtown wash. Let that dry and then a dark and detailed wash. Hope that was helpful.
Is this style of painting known as alla prima (painting in one go using a wet on wet approach)? Your demonstration is clear, helpful and inspiring, thank you, Karen! As I watched you paint, I imagined using the same tonal values for each aspect of the painting but changing out their hues to create imaginative landscapes: Pink sun, purple trees, blue green sky and turquoise water . . . so much fun!
I love the light and the reflections...how beautiful.
😊 thanks Karen...
So glad you enjoyed this one

Yes, you could call this all’s prima. I love the idea of using the same sort of techniques, with different colours etc!!
Wow, very beautiful. Thanks for the very instructive video. Greetings from Germany ☺️
Thank you, you’re welcome 😊
Karen this is really beautiful and it looks sooooo easy….until I try it…🙈
