Absolutely enchanting... I think I see a princess castle hidden right behind those trees 😉
Wow! Didn’t see that! That is what I love about watercolor 😊
Just gorgeous - damp diffused light with absolutely beautiful color. Thank you
You are so welcome!
Lovely Karen!
Thank you 😊
Stunning !
Incredible! Wow!❤️🦋
Absolutely love this, thank you Karen. Stevie, York.
Thanks Stevie 😊
You make it look so easy, but it requires a lot of experience to play that freely with watercolor! Wonderful as always Karen!
I love your style ❤❤
Thank you 😊
So beautiful…you make it looks so easy, effortless as your brush dances over the landscape.
Thank you for your generous tutorial.
Thanks Joanne😊

Thank you!
Your technique and teaching style is very enjoyable and easy to follow. Thank you! This is a great help.
Thank you so much 😊
Karen, this didn't pop up in my notifications until today and the second I saw it I was captivated by the image of the painting. What a fantastic tutorial using such a limited palette to create a really atmospheric landscape. Can't wait to give it a whirl. The late, great Ron Ranson used his finger nails to great effect in many of his paintings 🙂Thank you so much as always.
Great to hear from you! Thank you so much! I loved the late and great Ron Ranson. He made watercolour so accessible 💕
I found your foreground grasses a bit like soldiers in a row, but lovely combination of colors and edges to create distance and light.
I absolutely love this painting! I can’t stop looking at it, the light and the colors. Will definitely try this one. Thank you Karen 😊
Thank you so much!
I loved painting this. I am usually drawn to brighter colors. I think the colors here may be my new favorites. Very earthy. You are an awesome teacher. The fact that I could paint something I am happy with by watching a 15 minute video is unbelievable. Thank You !
Thank you so much 😀
Amazing
Thank you 😊
I love it, the colors are beautiful! 🥰❤👋
Beautiful as ever. Thanks, Karen.
Thank you so much 😊
Majestic effects by keeping it simple, but also paying attention to those classic methods of: wet into wet, damp into wet, damp into damp and wet into dry. I'm finding that using more muted colours also helps with creating more atmosphere. It's hard for me though, because I can be a bit over the top with my colours. This approach here will definitely be one I'll be trying TODAY!
This video is so helpful to me, as I'm still in the stage of being too heavy with the paint, often using too many brushstrokes and not really getting the best our of watercolour with its transparency and white of the paper here and there. Occasionally, I do manage it pull it off, so it's not that I can't paint that way. I think I get too carried away at times and probably need to step back more often and learn when to stop!
Thank you so much for sharing. I am really pleased you found this helpful 😊
Awesome!!!
Love your style and techniques Karen! Thank you for your inspiration.

@@KarenRiceArt Thank you!!
Hey Karen as usual I’m fantasizing about your videos and how they look realistic and what I want to know what size paper do you use
Hi James, I usually use 9 x 12 inches.
Amazing! I will definitely need to watch again . I love your palette but it’s probably not available anymore , right?
Thank you Sue. The palette is available on Ken Bromley art supplies. Search Loxley Heavyweight.
@@KarenRiceArt Thankyou
I notice you use both hot and cold pressed paper in your paintings. How do you decide which to use?
Thanks for your question Jean. I mostly use cold press paper. However, I do love to use hot press paper, especially when I’m painting line and wash, detailed flowers, and some of my apps tracks. The paint tends to flow better, especially when using the plastic card.
Karen Do you stretch you're 140l b paper? great effect you depict on your work Thanks Peter
I don’t… I use watercolour blocks and they help with warping.
What company made the quin gold that you used?
I have used W&N
Gorgeous Karen.
Beautiful painting and excellent tutorial, thanks 😊
Thank you 😊
