    Got the book and dab here and there, actually seeing Wendy doing the basics adds to the importance of looking at the subject. Thank you.

    Subscribed! This was the best introduction to drawing ever! I would have said I don't need nobody to show me how to sharpen a pencil, then you showed us and I needed that!

    I just bought your book at a thrift store it’s been so helpful. And I found this channel randomly as just something to have in the e background while I practice

    Ha! I knew I wasn’t doing wrong layering watercolor pencils and reg color pencils! I’ve only been studying for 3 weeks and when an artist friend saw me doing this he chided me to focus on one media...art is an expression of the soul! Who cares about right and wrong, in particular, it proper technique is employed.
    I’m so new at this I don’t know if I’ll ever be good enough to do what Wendy does, but I’d sure love to!

      Great comment!
      I think right or wrong is told by everyones very own heart and not by others. Propably your friend was right, but only for himself and not for you. Also I can totally understand the advise to fokus on one single medium if someone is new to it, to maximise the progress on it.

    This is so fascinating! I just saw a mention of botanical drawing in an online yoga magazine and I had no idea this was a thing. And now I’m completely enthralled by the watercolor pencils. I think I have a new thing to learn! Thank you so much for sharing this!

    Hi. I know you did this video years ago, but I can't find Fabriano Artistico Hot Pressed Watercolor Paper in spiral pads - I can't find it with holes to insert into a pad. Any suggestions with a link(s)? I loved your video. Thanks so much.

  • @GlitterPoolParty
    @GlitterPoolParty Год назад

    Being able to take the spiral binder off your paper would come in handy for organizing your swatch book! you could remove swatches that are no longer relevant or rearrange your pages. I hadn't thought of that before until I saw you show how to unbind your paper.

    I want to try colored pencils so badly but I just cannot understand if you start with light colored pencils or dark and how do you decide which colors to use? I am used to painting in watercolors and I cannot figure this out. Please advise. I find this very confusing. I do own your book but just need some advise. As a example, say you have a red object, which red do you use first?
