I truly think so especially in the new age of AI where anyone can generate a gorgeous image… it’s the time we spend on our craft that matters the most 💕
Ma'am, I have learn a lot from you. I was better at sketch but I was worse in painting. But I developed myself a lot throughout your video. I try your paintings at home, wish I could show you them here.Your tutorial video is way better than the other time-leaps art videos that have millions of views. You deserve millions of subscribers and billions of views. Actually you don't need viewers, viewers need you. ( pardon my English. Love from foreign 🇧🇩😊)
Oh thank you so much Shahriar for your kind words 💕 I am delighted to hear you find these videos helpful and that you are enjoying your watercolor progress! No need to apologize - English is my 2nd language too and yours is perfect 😊 Have a beautiful day!
I have watched hundreds of watercolor tutorials, and you are the first to even mention the Synthetic Ox Gall to keep the paper wet longer. How this would have helped me so many times! Thank you for this valuable tip, and for the beautiful tutorial on the rose. Your painting was beautiful!
Wow this video came at a perfect time for me as I struggle inside my head with the painting I am working on at the moment. I keep worrying I will ruin it, but if I don’t actually paint it won’t go anywhere. I keep forgetting that I actually LOVE the whole process of watercolour. I love the flow, the colours the brushes, the peace. Thank you for talking about our own expression and style too. We all need to hear it. I love how you layer colours and build up the image. Thanks for sharing inspiring soft words and what you know.
I like the statement about translating what we see to the image on the paper. I had a figure drawing class(decades ago), and during breaks we would walk around and look at each other's sketches- I was amazed at how different they all looked, and yet still portrayed the model accurately.
That’s such an excellent real world example of what I was trying to say! Thank you 👌😊 makes me think I need to take some live classes soon just to brush up on figure drawing skills. They offer some at our downtown gallery I would just need to figure out the logistics with kids but thank you for the idea! 💕
It is so pleasing to focus on your gentle instruction because there is no ego involved as in some other artists' videos. You give so much to your viewers! ❤
Dear Anna, I have been watching your inspiring videos for a couple of years. I find your mesmerising voice and soft hand movements at catching reality into your very personal art wonderful. You are a display of such a lot of nice tings that I don't even find words for the feelings and inspiration you tramsmit to me. Throughout your videos, I have learnt more on watercolor than watching any other artist. I admire your work and thank you heartly for your generosity. Kind regards from Spain 🌈
Wow, thank you Marta for your kind words! I am delighted to hear that you find these recordings enjoyable :) If they help you find a bit of inspiration and encourage your creativity then my job is done well, I am truly happy to hear your feedback. On a separate note, Spain is one of my favorite places on Earth, I adore Barcelona for its beautiful architecture, culture, food, and surrounding nature. This is where I found my favourite paint brushes too - coincidentally Escoda brushes are made in Bacrelona:) It's been a while since my last visit pre-pandemic but I hope to return soon xoxo
@@AnnaBucciarelli I live in Madrid. But love Barcelona and Escoda brushes too. Please, go on being the way you are. You make the world a better place! A big hug
Oh, THANK YOU for saying this! There is a complicated interaction between what we see and what our fingers can do and how the medium behaves. We have to embrace that!
0:48 Thank you for teaching me that Synthetic Ox Gall exists! It has been such a life-changer! Colorado is very warm and dry to where it can be hard to get smooth gradients from wet-on-wet and this stuff has made it actually possible! Thank you!!
Thank you Anna and Jill... THIS is the part I find most complicated. I can look at a painting and understand how to recreate the look and aesthetic, but I can't yet look at a real thing. The way you separate colours is extremely helpful.
❝Painting is translating what we see in a different language, the language of art❞ ❝the hours we spent in painting are valuable regardless of the outcome❞ You could have be a poet or a reciter. Your whole lesson felt like a poem that knocks our heart
I'm so glad to watch to your video. Very nice and interesting problems The end result of your watercolor is special and the process of realization is interesting. Very good and helpful explication. I like the details.
“Shouldn’t we be able to just look at something, and paint it exactly as it is.” I was trained in ultra-realism, and I have come to believe that we have photography for that, and what happens between the eyes and the hand, that’s the art. (And okay, also the approach and materials,) One reason I like watercolor is the literal watery-ness of the paint makes photorealism very difficult. Your bright colors and combinations, are what make your art you.
Another beautiful painting and informative video! I learn so much from your discussions on colors and the importance of learning to use the tools of watercolor.
This is so incredibly beautiful! I have been playing around with yellow undertones but this video gave me a whole lot of new ideas to grow! Thank you so-so much for existing and creating such beautiful art! ❤
I so admire the thing I want to paint that I try to copy it exactly as I see it, but when things get very complex, I will simplify while still trying to capture the essence. I know that requires me to somewhat interpret what I'm seeing but I don't see much creativity involved. Skill, yes. It's moving to impressionistic styles and abstraction that I think involves more creativity.
Omg I was waiting for this all of yesterday... On the other hand , I can now enjoy this fully as i'm done with my exam. It's always a treat to see that you posted ❤❤❤ Ps. I just won new brushes in a contest and bought some new paints so i'll definitely be recreating some more of your tutorials ❤
Congratulations!!!!! What contest? Enjoy new supplies! 💕 sorry it’s a long weekend in Canada 🇨🇦 and I run out of time editing because of everything else that was going on 😊
@@AnnaBucciarelli thank you 🙂 An art supply importer (shop too) in my country did a contest for one of their founder's birthday so I won some wonderful mop brushes and opera pink from white nights 🙂 . And no issues on the timing we always look forward to your videos ❤️ also love that you borrowed hair from your cat 😂
I received a water colour from my friend as my birthday gift & I painted a pink orchid instant. And my school is also off because of Eid. And congratulations. And let me tell you, few months ago, I become 1st in my whole district and went to division level to compete
Thank you! As I mentioned this was just a study but I am doing a detailed rise just for PATREON now 💕😊 and will post a summary on RUclips here as well!
Thank you for this lovely video! I am moving closer to wanting to take your more in depth classes. I tried to buy the brushes that you linked but was unsuccessful due to the sizes being unavailable. Was the size 2 a size 2/0? They had that one in the Chronos but not just a size 2. I don’t think they had just a size 4 either. Any help is appreciated! Thank you! Love your work!!
I’ve address this before in several videos 😊 my advice is always to trace - I’ve done this for almost 10 years before I got comfortable with free hand sketches, and still do it for portrait commissions. Of course the images have to be royalty free or your own! Nothing wrong with tracing as long as it’s within legal boundaries - in fact I offer black and white outlines for tracing on my PATREON because drawing requires a whole other set of skills which you don’t need to tackle if the goal is to build watercolor technique 😊 hope this helps!
@AnnaBucciarelli thank you for the reply and for repeating what you had already said. Tonight was the first time i had watched your work, and it did help.
Hi Anna ~ I think you are a brilliant artist and I have enjoyed watching your tutorials. I wonder if you would consider not playing music in the background. I find it somewhat distracting as it competes with your tutoring. Thank you for considering my request.
Please help, I am a paid up member of your patreon but I cannot view anything like for example these recent posts. I cannot select most recent posts first or even do a list of all your posts. Even if I select “watercolour birds “ , it does not show me all your posts and I have to come to RUclips to find them and then I cannot see the whole video anyway. Please, I cannot contact you so have no idea what to do but I am extremely fed up that it does not work. I can only see old posts and nothing more. I am logged in and have been a member for about three months. Thank you for any help
Good morning. I am sorry you are experiencing issues with the PATREON platform. The easiest way to view all PATREON tutorials is to click on the Index post which is always pinned to the top of my PATREON home page and has all links listed chronologically 😊

Anna, thank you so much for sharing your thought process!
This is the most interesting and brain blowing challenge for me learning all about water coloring. Thank you for all you share. 😍
Amazing process,I love the combination of the two colours, and they are colours in so many new Roses as well,your birds are unique as well 💝

Thank you Kate! 🩷 for me it’s literally the only thing especially these days with the daily news 🤦🏻♀️
I know I try not to watch too much 😢
What an eloquent explanation. Thank you.
Glad you enjoyed it!💕💕💕💕
Great comment that "painting is essentially translating what we see into the language of art".
Can’t take credit for it as I had it written down in my diary (not sure where I heard it first as it was a long time ago but it stuck) 💕😊
❝Painting is translating what we see in a different language, the language of art❞
❝the hours we spent in painting are valuable regardless of the outcome❞
You could have be a poet or a reciter. Your whole lesson felt like a poem that knocks our heart
And do you know what I am also a writer & I am the only reader of my writing
And yes if you need any cat hair you can ask me I have three
I absolutely love your tutorials, I’ve learnt so much :) Thank you! Love from Toronto ❤
many thanks for the wonderful lesson: your teachings are precious
