Hi Bobbi, and welcome to my little art community, I have tried so many papers, brushes, paints over the decades of teaching and I'm thrilled you are happy with your supplies. I think they are wonderful especially for the beginner who doesn't wants to practice a lot play a lot and not worry about the cost when starting out~ Happy painting friend, and most of all fun, play and enjoy this beautiful medium! That's what its all about :-)
Thank you, These two colors together are so beautiful and vibrant~ I hope you give this a try. It was a lot of fun. I believe the free drawing may be on my website under FREE RESOURCES if not let me know I have the 2.50 tutorial companion kit, or you can email me debbiewalkerart@gmail.com. Happy painting friend.
Good morning. I have never been a big fan of purple but I must say you made a fan out of me. I think the blue did it. It's always so nice to have something new to try. It will make me step out of my box with this color.
Good morning Ann. Thats why I went here. I LOVED it in combination with the light blue. and just a tiny touch of Opera Rose/Quin Magenta. What else I love is the complimentary colors purple andgreen which always create a beautiful color palette. Im so happy you are going to try a new color palette, its fun right?
Thank you! 😊 I hope it inspired you to give it a try, this drawing is on my website debbiewalkerart.com under free resources you can download as well. Give it a try, these colors are so beautiful together, especially that sky blue from MeiLiang, Cerluean maybe from Winsor Newton. Happy playing friend!
Thank you so much Sue, Im looking forward to see you soon! You will do great with this tutorial. Make sure and grab the drawing (I linked in the description) xo
Je suis heureux que cela vous ait aidé et que cela vous ait donné quelques conseils utiles. J'espère que vous l'essayerez et surtout que vous vous amuserez avec !
I had so much fun with this one, loved these two colors together, and push n pull is always been my favorite go to technique. I hope you give this a try. Happy painting friend.!
I'm glad I watched this one. I was so close to give up on watercolors today. Everything I tried I failed. But your video gave me hope it is easy to follow and will definitely try it. Thank you so much
Glad I could help! Watercolors is all about techniques unique to this medium. Once you get those, you will find it to be the most beautiful and magical medium there is~ I hope I can continue to in spire you, and Happy painting.
Perfect! I do the same Tina, I watch things a few times, then I go in to paint it. Im so glad you are going to play with this. If you wold like me to draw for you just shoot me an email. I drew this freehand and forgot to scan it :-) Have fun gf
It's so helpful how you actually show and explain how you paint in detail. I've learned so much about technique from you! This may be a silly question, but could you show how you "wash and rinse" your brush on camera? I also appreciate that you offer the drawings of your flowers, that helps me a lot, since I'm not great at drawing. Thank you!
You are so welcome! It is how I learned best as well, so naturally how I teach. Im so happy it works for you too. I will definitely show that for you, I have in some videos, but maybe more often~ I have my little ceramic waterwell, and I thoroughly wash my brush with the water on one side, then rinse it good, scraping it alongside of well till its clear. So important because watercolors are very translucent and if you don't you will carry the water to your next color and can cause a dull muddy result. After rinsing I dab off my brush on a paper towel as well and can see if it is clear and clean before going into my next pigment. I hope that helps~ Happy painting friend. You inspired me to share a short video on the basics like this for beginners xo
Thank you Susue~ I hope you give them a try. I loved this vibrant violet with the pastel blue. Such a pretty combination. Happy painting Friend! You can grab the little tutorial kit with worksheets and drawing if is helps too!
Thanknyou! I’m somewhat new here (6 months) and learning. I am working on an e book and hope to have beautiful watercolor books one day! Thank you for you support and encouragement . Here is a link to my ebook in progress. tinyl.io/9EtI Happy painting 🎨🖌️
Hi Debbie, I`ve never done "flowers" before but after watching your Tutition videos you`ve now really inspired me to give them a try . I`m going to try them for a few months and see how I get on doing them as your tuition is outstanding and I love the way you name your colours in full, and what brush sizes you intend to use and throughout tell us everything your doing step by step. It all helps us learners immensely . I just love your blending and "translucent "style in another Video of yours I watched recently , so yes its lift of time & all systems go. PS.Out of interest have you done a bunch of Sweet Pea flowers painting Video at all ?
Good morning Tommy, Im glad you enjoyed my tutorial(s) and teaching style, its how I learned best as well. I love the unique characteristics of watercolors from its ability to be translucent to its vibrant, acrylic like qualities. Its pure magic for me :-) I have done sweet peas here is a tutorial for you. I will do them again soon, as I love painting them (even though I Cant seem to get them to grow here in California :/) ruclips.net/video/xDV5A3CKF2I/видео.htmlsi=Bw5Id_Z0YsQ3zrJ2 Have fun!
yes sweetpeas are very heat sensitive and many varieties struggle in hot weather . Can I assume you have tried Lathyrus vestitus, commonly called the "Wild Sweet Pea " in California I believe . You should have luck growing the "Cupani" sweet peas variety , they are reasonably good in hot weather countries as long as you "tend" them . Soak the peas for 24 hours before planting to help them germinate Make sure they never dry out too much in the soil, so keep the soil moist in a hot country or they will die on you. Happy Gardening , best wishes, Tom. @@DebbieWalkerArtmadeeasy
I have not tried those, I will definitely look them up. Interesting, You are a wealth of good information, now I am inspired :-) I had given up on sweet peas... Now to search for them on internet and nurseries. I also am ready to paint another style of sweet pea soon! Happy gardening and painting most of all have fun~
I purchased my second set of Mei Liang paints, hoping to get the exact colors you are using here. I don’t seem to have the beautiful red violet and the fresh purple is missing, as is a sap green. Your painting sings.
You’re right about the sap...I’m not concerned by the sap. It is easily matched, but the fresh purple is missing and the red violet is very different from what I see in your piece. I will try to make do with Mungyo and Grabie. Thanks for your help.
Hi! it is great isnt it. Well I use mostly the Meeden palettes, but this one was a wodnerful creator I found on IG. She has created numerous palettes for me. (numerous!) Here is her info. Let her know I sent you , im not affiliated but she doesnt always make these because they are time consuming. Here you go! MIST CERAMICS - Pallette linkamzn.to/43ORDLG instagram.com/m.istceramics/?hl=en www.etsy.com/shop/Mistceramics
I have a beautiful porcelain two-well water dish and I use the right side to wash my brush and the paint off, and the left to then rinse my brush. This is the wel I use and lvoe it made beautifully. 2 WELL WATER Amazon link amzn.to/3KsHzRMm Meeden Direct Link - (For outside of US) bityl.co/KHILbityl.co/KGgQ Because watercolors are so light and transparent, if your brush is not completely clean of paint, you will carry that paint color into the next, and you can end up with a dirty result. I hope that helps Happy painting!
Sometimes I paint from photos I take. This one I hand sketched because years ago I painted literally dozens of these for commissions, cards and things. If you would like the sketch I can sketch it out and send to you via email. DebbieWalkerArt@gmail.com :-)
Any tips for getting clean lines at the edge of the petals? The edges of my petals are all fuzzy. Even the edges of my leaves are fuzzy and not crisp. 😢
So interesting I thought I answered this... hmmm so. if this is a duplicate pardon.. When painting wet into a wet area, you will get soft edges. If you like those crisper edges paint wet into dry paper or paint. This will give you much crisper lines and good for details. Also Hot pressed paper will give you crisper lines. Here is a playlist I created for some of these techniques as well. Hope it helps! ruclips.net/p/PLGvRyB1lQxykLi0zaDPArWVOjQ-_Hz3zA&si=VLNz09H9cOcgQgKs
@@DebbieWalkerArtmadeeasy Yes, yes I am painting wet onto dry paper. I'm wondering if I just don't have the experience yet of knowing which water-to-paint ratio works best for achieving crisp edges, so the water ends up bleeding, even though the paper is dry. Thank you for replying!
If you email me I will send you either the drawing I offered for this for free, or the link for the 5.00 Tutorial Companion kit with the drawing, color swatch, Original painted image, warm ups and brushstrokes to practice, and go along with the tutorial. Debbiewalkerart@gmail.com Happy painting Im happy you are going to give this a try!
Hi Lois! I use two different ones, the small journals, which I have a library of past years, labeled, and cataloged for reference. And many times I use the larger 9X12 Artisto pads because its easier for all of you to see what im doing. Watercolor Pads 9x12 amz.run/7Jep And Watercolor Pads 5.5x8.5 amz.run/7Jeo I believe here it was my smaller pads with the spiral rings..
Hi Jean, interesting, yes, normally I would make a shadowy color. I am quite spontaneous, (in case you hadnt noticed lol) and may have just missed that in the particular area your referring to~ Darn, lets see if I can help. Here is the link. Ill look for your request and of course approve you. What is your fb name? Here is the link. facebook.com/groups/781794610217892/
What is your policy on painting your exercises and sharing them with friends? I did this beautiful lotus and two people asked for a print, my daughter and her friend. They would not be for sale. I’ve been doing watercolor for over 20 years and never went mercantile, and I do not want to violate anyone’s copyright or ownership. Thanks.
@@DebbieWalkerArtmadeeasy Yes! It was so fun. I tried to get as close to your colors as possible. Thank you, thank you, thank you for being such a dedicated and generous teacher!

It's so helpful how you actually show and explain how you paint in detail. I've learned so much about technique from you! This may be a silly question, but could you show how you "wash and rinse" your brush on camera? I also appreciate that you offer the drawings of your flowers, that helps me a lot, since I'm not great at drawing. Thank you!
You are so welcome! It is how I learned best as well, so naturally how I teach. Im so happy it works for you too. I will definitely show that for you, I have in some videos, but maybe more often~ I have my little ceramic waterwell, and I thoroughly wash my brush with the water on one side, then rinse it good, scraping it alongside of well till its clear. So important because watercolors are very translucent and if you don't you will carry the water to your next color and can cause a dull muddy result. After rinsing I dab off my brush on a paper towel as well and can see if it is clear and clean before going into my next pigment. I hope that helps~ Happy painting friend. You inspired me to share a short video on the basics like this for beginners xo
Love it
Thank you Susue~ I hope you give them a try. I loved this vibrant violet with the pastel blue. Such a pretty combination. Happy painting Friend! You can grab the little tutorial kit with worksheets and drawing if is helps too!
Love your style and step by step tutorial. Hope, you’re working on a book or watercolor workbook. Just, suggesting!
Thanknyou! I’m somewhat new here (6 months) and learning. I am working on an e book and hope to have beautiful watercolor books one day! Thank you for you support and encouragement . Here is a link to my ebook in progress. tinyl.io/9EtI Happy painting 🎨🖌️
Hi Debbie, I`ve never done "flowers" before but after watching your Tutition videos you`ve now really inspired me to give them a try . I`m going to try them for a few months and see how I get on doing them as your tuition is outstanding and I love the way you name your colours in full, and what brush sizes you intend to use and throughout tell us everything your doing step by step. It all helps us learners immensely .
I just love your blending and "translucent "style in another Video of yours I watched recently , so yes its lift of time & all systems go.
PS.Out of interest have you done a bunch of Sweet Pea flowers painting Video at all ?
Good morning Tommy, Im glad you enjoyed my tutorial(s) and teaching style, its how I learned best as well. I love the unique characteristics of watercolors from its ability to be translucent to its vibrant, acrylic like qualities. Its pure magic for me :-) I have done sweet peas here is a tutorial for you. I will do them again soon, as I love painting them (even though I Cant seem to get them to grow here in California :/) ruclips.net/video/xDV5A3CKF2I/видео.htmlsi=Bw5Id_Z0YsQ3zrJ2
Have fun!
yes sweetpeas are very heat sensitive and many varieties struggle in hot weather . Can I assume you have tried Lathyrus vestitus, commonly called the "Wild Sweet Pea " in California I believe . You should have luck growing the "Cupani" sweet peas variety , they are reasonably good in hot weather countries as long as you "tend" them . Soak the peas for 24 hours before planting to help them germinate Make sure they never dry out too much in the soil, so keep the soil moist in a hot country or they will die on you. Happy Gardening , best wishes, Tom. @@DebbieWalkerArtmadeeasy
I have not tried those, I will definitely look them up. Interesting, You are a wealth of good information, now I am inspired :-) I had given up on sweet peas... Now to search for them on internet and nurseries. I also am ready to paint another style of sweet pea soon! Happy gardening and painting most of all have fun~
happy to try to help as you are helping me improve in my water colours 👍🏻
My pleasure, I will have a birdie tutorial, wet on wet this Saturday~ I hope you enjoy!
I purchased my second set of Mei Liang paints, hoping to get the exact colors you are using here. I don’t seem to have the beautiful red violet and the fresh purple is missing, as is a sap green. Your painting sings.
The sap green in Mie Liang is referred to as Tree Green
Oh no?, Are the actual Pans missing?
You’re right about the sap...I’m not concerned by the sap. It is easily matched, but the fresh purple is missing and the red violet is very different from what I see in your piece. I will try to make do with Mungyo and Grabie. Thanks for your help.
Thank You Debbie
It is my pleasure~ Enjoy and have fun with it.
Lovely. Thank you. X
You’re welcome 😊 I hope you give them a try Shirley~ Happy painting.
I have the same water well and I love it! I love watching you. Where is your paint tray from?
Hi! it is great isnt it. Well I use mostly the Meeden palettes, but this one was a wodnerful creator I found on IG. She has created numerous palettes for me. (numerous!) Here is her info. Let her know I sent you , im not affiliated but she doesnt always make these because they are time consuming. Here you go! MIST CERAMICS - Pallette linkamzn.to/43ORDLG

I love your tutorials! Do you allow people to sell artwork they have created using your tutorials? Thanks for any info!
Yes I assume you are giving it your unique style and Thank you for asking🌸🖌️
@@DebbieWalkerArtmadeeasy Thanks so much & yes, I am! ❤️
When you say wash and rinse which water are you using the clear or the wash of your brush
I have a beautiful porcelain two-well water dish and I use the right side to wash my brush and the paint off, and the left to then rinse my brush. This is the wel I use and lvoe it made beautifully. 2 WELL WATER Amazon link amzn.to/3KsHzRMm
Meeden Direct Link - (For outside of US) bityl.co/KHILbityl.co/KGgQ
Because watercolors are so light and transparent, if your brush is not completely clean of paint, you will carry that paint color into the next, and you can end up with a dirty result. I hope that helps Happy painting!
Love this, Debbie. Do you sketch and paint from a reference photo? I need to practice my drawing skills but I love the painting part the best :)
Sometimes I paint from photos I take. This one I hand sketched because years ago I painted literally dozens of these for commissions, cards and things. If you would like the sketch I can sketch it out and send to you via email. DebbieWalkerArt@gmail.com :-)
Any tips for getting clean lines at the edge of the petals? The edges of my petals are all fuzzy. Even the edges of my leaves are fuzzy and not crisp. 😢
So interesting I thought I answered this... hmmm so. if this is a duplicate pardon.. When painting wet into a wet area, you will get soft edges. If you like those crisper edges paint wet into dry paper or paint. This will give you much crisper lines and good for details. Also Hot pressed paper will give you crisper lines. Here is a playlist I created for some of these techniques as well. Hope it helps! ruclips.net/p/PLGvRyB1lQxykLi0zaDPArWVOjQ-_Hz3zA&si=VLNz09H9cOcgQgKs
@@DebbieWalkerArtmadeeasy Yes, yes I am painting wet onto dry paper. I'm wondering if I just don't have the experience yet of knowing which water-to-paint ratio works best for achieving crisp edges, so the water ends up bleeding, even though the paper is dry. Thank you for replying!
Hi worksheet link on etsy takes you to the pumpkins. Please advise correct link. Thanks Sue x
Done! I fixed it last night. Thanks Sue~ (I think I Need an assistant to help me lol) See you soon and happy painting.
nice❤️❤️❤️❤️
Thank you! I Hope you are having a wonderful day filled with art and creativity~
Thank you for helping ❤❤🩹❤beginners
How do I draw the flowers
If you email me I will send you either the drawing I offered for this for free, or the link for the 5.00 Tutorial Companion kit with the drawing, color swatch, Original painted image, warm ups and brushstrokes to practice, and go along with the tutorial. Debbiewalkerart@gmail.com Happy painting Im happy you are going to give this a try!
I love the flowers but have a hRd time drawing them.
Debbie, what size is your Artisto pad?
Hi Lois! I use two different ones, the small journals, which I have a library of past years, labeled, and cataloged for reference. And many times I use the larger 9X12 Artisto pads because its easier for all of you to see what im doing.
Watercolor Pads 9x12
amz.run/7Jep
And
Watercolor Pads 5.5x8.5
amz.run/7Jeo
I believe here it was my smaller pads with the spiral rings..
Why do you leave the flip on the petal?
Hi Jean, Im not sure what you are referring to? Could you explain more?
@@DebbieWalkerArtmadeeasy I started in oils and acrylic and we always left a dark edge under the flip and along the outside edge to turn the flip.
I am new to water color and I have learned a lot from you. I tried to get you on Facebook but couldn’t do it.
Hi Jean, interesting, yes, normally I would make a shadowy color. I am quite spontaneous, (in case you hadnt noticed lol) and may have just missed that in the particular area your referring to~ Darn, lets see if I can help. Here is the link. Ill look for your request and of course approve you. What is your fb name? Here is the link. facebook.com/groups/781794610217892/
Hello, my dear teacher, the cartoon is great, I follow you from Isfahan, but I don't know English, please put Farsi subtitles under the video 🙏🙏❤️❤️❤️
Ok I will try. Happy painting friend.
What is your policy on painting your exercises and sharing them with friends? I did this beautiful lotus and two people asked for a print, my daughter and her friend. They would not be for sale. I’ve been doing watercolor for over 20 years and never went mercantile, and I do not want to violate anyone’s copyright
or ownership. Thanks.
Thank you so much for asking Rita please it would be my pleasure to help you paint this and gift them to friends🌸
@@DebbieWalkerArtmadeeasy I meant to say that I’ve already done the lotus painting. Following your video.
@@ritadean4180 Great! Isnt it fun? I just loved the blue and the violet. What colors did you use? Maybe the same. Happy painting friend.
@@DebbieWalkerArtmadeeasy Yes! It was so fun. I tried to get as close to your colors as possible. Thank you, thank you, thank you for being such a dedicated and generous teacher!
@@ritadean4180 my pleasure. I’m so glad that you’re enjoying it and sharing it with your friends that’s wonderful to hear.
