I love using these in my travel kit!! There was one time I took them to the community pool to keep myself busy while Bay swam. Well, I forgot to fill them before leaving the house. When I got to the pool, I realized my options where cholerine pool water, or Coconut seltzer. Well, the bubble added a cool effect, and the paper still smells like coconuts.....
Oh that's adventurous and sounds like a nice way to recreate the memory. I actually want to use these with acrylics on watercolor paper and see how they work out. I might do that in an upcoming video.
LOL! Most public places have a water fountain or public restroom if you are in a pinch. I'm not shy and will totally ask a snack bar or food vendor for a bit of water (or ice to melt) as well.
Ice to melt? That is resourceful. 🙂
Definetly this is an explanation that will help me a lot!!
Thank you so much!
Glad I could help! 🙂
Thanks! Never payed much attention to the the little reservoir before. Was going by feel of the results and different brands flow better than others, but looking at that little reservoir makes it so much easier!
Glad I could help. 🙂
First time using watercolor paints here. My palette came with a water brush, and this is just the video I needed to get started. Thanks!!
I'm glad I could help! Thanks for letting me know. I hope you have a blast with your new paints. Be patient, it takes time. 🙂
thank you SO much for this super informative and helpful tutorial!! finally I understand this thing! :D
Glad I could help! Thanks for letting me know this was useful. 🙂
This was so helpful, thank you!
Glad I could help! 🙂
I've been looking some water colour courses specifically Aqua brushes and This is very helpful on most "aqua brush tutorials" I didnt know these things are important to have better control using them. thanks!!
Glad I could help! 🙂
Great explanation!
Thank you! I'm glad you enjoyed this. 🙂
clear and concise, got me using and enjoying my water brushes Thank you!
Thank you! I'm glad I could help. 🙂
Thank you for explaining this. I love the Pentel water brushes but hadn’t figured that out.
I'm glad this helped. 🙂
Super helpful! Thank you!
Glad I could help! 🙂 Thank you for letting me know.
lol I love the whispers. Another great video, Pete!
Hey Tom. Thanks. I've been watching some of yours. You put out more than I can watch. Lol. You keep busy. A lot of good stuff.
@@IllustrationsByPete Thanks, Pete! Yeah, I do a live lesson mon-fri. It helps me keep my mind going instead of me going insane lol. Love ya bud!
Helpful thanks. I learned some things there.
I'm glad this was helpful. 👍🏻
Thanks, Pete. This was very helpful. I love using water brushes because of their portability and not having to worry about water bottles and such, especially when traveling. I can fill them up at an airport or gas station, etc. I have the Pentel brushes. Do you have a favorite brand?
Yes, I use the Pentel aquash exclusively. I've been able to control these the best. I'm glad you enjoyed this. 🙂
Best for artists who travel.
Or for people who spill a lot or keep reaching for the wrong cup and drink the paint water. 😂
@@IllustrationsByPete well I would say the water colour paint water that goes as waste or is drained into clean river streams is dangerous it can contain toxic minerals that pollutes the water system the best option is to carry napkins for drying the brush I would say water brush can be a better option in the long run for a watercolor artist who likes to travel abroad’s or for someone who doesn’t like to pollute the environment 😄
wow thanks for that crucial information .. god bless u ❤
I'm glad I could help. 🙂 He sure has. You too.
Wow, that is exactly the video I needed. thanks.
Thanks Marilyn! I'm glad you enjoyed it. 🙂
Question! To try out water brushes, I bought some Royal&Langnickel ones from Walmart and other than the bristles falling out, the biggest problem I have with them is the pigment being sucked up into the reservoir & contaminating the supply. Is this user-error or just the result of cheap quality?
Hi Xena! That is a great question. It could be a little bit of both. After you squeeze the brush you should let the air refill the brush before you dip it back into any paint. Sometimes, I've made this mistake with other water brushes but the Pentel Aquash water brushes (shown in the demo) are my favorite and I have never had this happen with them. And I've also never had their bristles fall out because they seem like they are melted together at the base. Give them a try if you can get them and I'd love to hear if that solves your issues. Thank you for the question.
Maaaaaaaaaaan, I just got one and I'm hating it! I come from traditional Sable brushes, I find these water brushes so hard to control. I don't know what I'm doing wrong. I mix my colours on the palette, I try to get some colour on the bristles, but they seem to suck all the pigment in (not in the water reservoir tho), and when I put it on the paper, there is not much pigment saturation. I mix some more, and then I press to get some more water, and all the pigment suddendly comes out, so it gets too saturated and mostly ruins my paintings. What am I doing wrong?
Try using a dryer brush to get pigment onto the pallet, then use a little more water to mix your colors, then dry it out a little more to paint with. I know it's difficult in the beginning but don't squeeze it while you're painting. Set the wetness of the brush before it touches the paint, the pallet, or the paper.
@@IllustrationsByPete I'll give it a try! Thank you so much for your reply!
I hope it helps. Please let me know. I used to and still do use regular brushes. It's like everything else, a lot of practice gives the best results. 👍🏻
Can these brushes be used on fabric with silk dyes..any idea?
I can't say for sure but I don't see why it wouldn't work. They hold watercolor pigment, acrylic, and ink very well. I have used them on fabric but not with silk dye. I hope that helps.
This video would have been so much better if you had shown using the brush in an actual painting.
I appreciate the input. If you get a chance to watch my other videos, I use this brush in almost all of them. 👍🏻
