Hi Wendy! I'm sad to have missed the livestream but I'm here for the replay. Thank you for all these videos about harmonizing colours. This soft muted palette is the stuff of my dreams and has me excited about watercolours again. ❤
Thanks, as always, for sharing both instruction and inspiration. I love the live RUclips interactions in real time with followers, friends, and family; but also appreciate that I can go back to replay and catch whatever I may have missed. ♥♥♥
I have just recently seen your youtube videos, so I'm glad you are now posting here! I have wondered how your colors are so well coordinated. Your mother paint is brilliant!!! I can NOT wait to learn more of your tips and tricks in your classes on your website as well as here!!
I missed the live, but I'm watching the replay! Thank you for the invite and for recording this! Hope to make more lives in the future. Warm wishes from Chicago where we are cold gray and rainy right now. I'm on an ongoing journey to master watercolor, so yes, curious! I'm feeling you about instagram.😑 Love looking at you tube videos!
I am so glad you are enjoying the replay! I'm in Cleveland where the weather is downright depressing at this time of year. I'm so happy that the watercolor colors are what determines my mood and NOT the sky!
Merci Willa! The colours you mixed are just beautiful. I watched the replay just before going to bed and am certain I will be having lovely harmonized dreams!
I watched your 3 video series on mother color. I tried painting using your principles (I'm on my third actually). They came out sooo great! Thank you for your generous spirit!
I missed the live but I’m watching you on replay. I’m also going to sign up for your watercolor class. Thank you for sharing your skills and methods with us. I was a teacher for thirty years and now I love being the student.
❤ I love it! ❤ I cannot resist a cheap set of watercolors, Prang in the bargain bin for a $1.99!? Iirc the big Bubble tray was $2.99 at Wal-Mart! 😂❤ I even tried dropping Gum arabic on them to make them less chalky. 😂❤ The small sets are 100% useful for "back to basics" exercises. Also at Walmart I picked up a huge Bee Mixed Media book, 9" x 12" 120 pages for $15. Starting from the back are swatches of my different palettes that I can easily flip through, and starting from the front are exercises and ideas I get from RUclips. Whenever I come across a stumbling block I go back to basics. 😊❤
@willawanders 😂❤ How can you go wrong with a $1.99! I did check on the Reeves watercolor set, and it doesn't look like it's available. It does look very comparable to the Meeden watercolor set that is around $15. Another set to look out for is the Phoenix brand. I have seen them drop to as low as $10 recently. They are now the makers of the Cottman watercolor, and the paint set looks to be identical. ❤ Both sides have the pigment information so it's definitely a step up from Prang! 😊❤
Color harmony is when the colors are aesthetically pleasing looking. You also need to do that without making mud. To do this you need to know color theory, even basic theory will work. Normally the way you achieve color harmony in a painting is to use a limited palette of 5 or 6 colors. Another thing would be to make sure that you make at least 3 of every mark, never just one even if you don’t like it. If you can’t remove it add more. I also love the way you teach harmony. It’s always fun to learn something different. Also Amazon has your Yasutomo brushes for $29.99 usd.
Hi, I love your work! I've been perusing your website, and before I purchase, I want to ask about classes. Are your classes included in the Fodder School, or are they completely separate? I definitely want your journal class!! Thanks so much!!
I have lots of different courses on my platform, Willa Workshops. Watercolor for Relaxation is totally it's own course. Fodder School is the year long mixed media collage art course and we are in our 4th year of Fodder School.
I am slow!! 😂 I finally scolled down on the website, and I did see the 2024 monthly courses for Fodder school. And I did see there was a month for the Fodder journal. I definitely want to sign up for 2024 Fodder School. I want your journal class, and that is separate from the Fodder journal? OK, thank you!!! 😊
@@kathys7283 There are many, many different options offered on my website. I'm sorry if you feel confused! The Willa Journals Course is a totally different course than The Fodder Keeper.
Is there lower quality than Prang? Perhaps the Crayola? I mean, you can buy the Prang set at a drug store. It is honestly shocking to me that an art school would use Prang. I can see an elementary school using them with little kids though!

I'm happy it's getting you excited about watercolors again!
Same here! ❤ This is definitely what I need to be working on. 😊
I just came across my grandmother's deviled egg tray, and i decided it was going to be a great pallette for me.
I bought a huge deviled egg tray. I have a watercolor palette addiction issue. LOL!!!!
Your colors and patterns sing to me. I can see why they make you happy!

Hi Wendy… baking in NJ but also watching you fir a bit…
What were you baking?
Hi! I missed the live, but so glad for the video! 😊
I am so glad you could catch the video!
These are the best videos. I have a Prang set and a set of Reeves that I have had for probably at least 20 years. I will get them out to try this.
This is amazing! Wow!!!
Great information, thank you.
I’m so glad you found it helpful!
Cool technique
Thanks so much!
I am in. Have not taken the course. Taking Imperfect Lettering ... in Northern CA
The Imperfect Lettering course is a great choice!

@@willawanders Girl, just prioritizing where to start!!!!❤
Ontario, Canada
I believe that Reaves is made by Winsor n Newton
Really! The last I heard it was a discontinued brand. But today on the live someone may have found it.
@@willawandersI could be wrong but I really thought I read it somewhere that Reaves is a brand made by Winsor and Newton
A lot of art schools and teachers start students off with using Prang. I don’t think it’s exactly the lowest of the low quality but okay. 😅

@willawanders This mother trick is better than sliced bread!!!!!!!!
❤ j’ai bien compris le principe de « la mère » c’est instructif et cela me sera très utile. Merci d’avoir partagé votre approche.❤❤
