    If you’re like me, you’ve gone looking for watercolor supplies and felt overwhelmed with the number of choices available to you.
    There are a multitude of brushes to choose from and hundreds of pigments.
    Don’t stress. You don’t need a closet full of supplies to make great art.
    In this week’s video, I take on the challenge of using just 3 brushes and 4 watercolor pigments to paint this street scene.
    If you would like to purchase some of the brushes I feature in this video you can follow my Amazon Affiliate link: www.amazon.com...

    This is a very interesting mix of colours. For people who prefer to avoid using real cobalt watercolours, do you think Daniel Smith's Amazonite could replace the green well?
    ( Holbein have a cobalt blue hue that might replace the blue)

    For the life of me, I can't figure out how to get such even brush texture/paper texture like you consistently have. Your colors always lay so evenly on the surface. Maybe the amount of water?

    • @MichaelHattem
      @MichaelHattem 4 месяца назад

      Water but also using the biggest brush possible because it can hold a lot of paint.

    Can you plz mention the brand and number of the used brushes ….. which is a round brush with a good point ?

    • @davidmolloy126
      @davidmolloy126 Год назад +1

      For a round brush with a great point try the Escoda Versatil which is very popular with many artists including pro's and is a synthetic sable of great quality and a very affordable price. The mop brush, try a Da Vinci Casaneo for a synthetic one or an Escoda Ultimo, both are very good but the latter is better. I hope this this helps.

    Matthew, thanks for an informative video and painting demonstration. Good to see how you approach the initial, middle and final washes while using a limited palette.

    Thank you so much for posting these wonderful watercolor tutorials. They are not only fun to watch but also are highly educational for people like me who want to learn watercolor painting. Watching this tutorial, a couple of questions came to mind. First, is your watercolor board flat or is it tilted? Second, how much water are you applying to both sides of your paper, and do you let it dry a little bit before you start painting? I am finding that my paint runs down the paper really fast and I lose total control. May be I have too much water on my paper and may be my paint may be too thin. I am trying to figure out how to have a better control.

    When it comes to brushes, simplify your life. Grab the Escoda Red set travel brushes if you're starting out but getting real serious. Very versatile and top quality.
    Hey Matt, what colors would you say you cant live without? I ask, because you introduced me to quinacridone gold...and I swear by it now.

    I love this and you’re very good at teaching clearly and simplifying steps. My biggest issue right now is drawing cars In perspective. Since it looks like you modified the composition using the photo for a loose reference, I cannot trace it 😅…and my drawing of the cars makes the whole painting look crappy (no matter how good the watercolor portion is). Any tips for drawing cars? I know this is a watercolor tutorial but I figured it couldn’t hurt to ask anyway. Thank you!

    Beautiful 😊 you are so generous to share how you go about everything in watercolor, from how to keep going when you become unmotivated and disappointed, to improving from one art piece to another. I live in Asia and I see your lessons/retreat abroad. If only I can gp! 😅❤ thanks a lot and i hope you don’t get tired of sharing ❤
