Paint and Water Consistency in Watercolor: Beginner Watercolor Tips
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 14 авг 2024
- Beginner watercolor painters often strike difficulties trying to understand the different paint consistencies that are used when painting in watercolor. In this video I simplify the paint consistencies that I use into three main levels and I use my paintings to demonstrate how I use each consistency.

(Smile) I have a coffee consistency, it occurs when I dunk my brush into my coffee cup.
Exactly what I did yesterday!😂
🤣🤣🤣
I have done this too!
😂😂😂
I've done that more than once with my coffee or wine. Learned to put my drinking container off of my painting surface 😅
Louise you’re such a sweetheart. Not only the content is so much to the point and helpful with the examples shown ,Your voice is the kindest I’ve ever heard . 😊🙏🏼
Thank you Siddharth. 💕
I’ve tried them all. I agree. The Rosemary & Co. eradication is THE BEST. Totally worth it.
This was VERY helpful! Thank you for sharing all your wisdom. Not only do your teach us these invaluable techniques, but you also give us motivation to paint more and learn more!
Your so articulate. From out takes I know it's a challenge at times. With everything you do and explain I can't imagine. I am sure I speak for everyone how much it is appreciated . This lesson was NOt explained ever to me! I have been trying for years to paint.
Thank you, Louise - much easier to see and understand than the “milky” and “creamy” descriptions. I always feel that I have a better understanding of the concepts after hearing and seeing your demonstrations. We are all so fortunate that you take the time to help us. 😊
Wonderful video Louise, thank you! You always explain everything so clearly and it’s always such a treat to see you demonstrate the techniques using several previous paintings. Have a great weekend! 😊x
Thanks so much Sarah. 😊 💕
I'm subscribing to your channel because having watched many watercolour tutorials, I began to realise when I was painting that there were actions made by the painter that I wasn't seeing on screen: dipping the water pot, out of shot,: drying the brush, out of shot: picking up more pigment, out of shot. And these actions were clearly making a significant difference. This video of yours on mixing doesn't have those weaknesses and I been searching for this for a while now, so thank you, thank you for your perception of our difficulties and realising what was needed to address them!
Oh you are so right! I love these videos for the same exact reasons.
An AWESOME explanation Louise as always. Your beginner videos are super, beyond compare.
A very useful episode indeed. I liked how it focused on one skill and how it was used in a variety of your previous paintings. Could you please do a similarly focused episode on adding shadows?
I second that!
Love your last few minutes of quirky errors when recording... it's so cute and hilarious. Checking out a lot of your videos as I just beginning with water colour painting medium after acrylic. Finding it very challenging and different
This is the best video demonstration of paint consistencies I've ever seen 😍 Thank you so much, Louise!!! It's such an integral part of painting well in watercolor, but so hard to explain! Much appreciated! And loved seeing how it applies to some of your lovely paintings ❤
Thanks very much Roxanne.
I agree! Some watercolourists explain the consistencies like tea, milk, cream and even something else... I find it a bit intimidating and just too much. Louise's theory is much more intuitive at least for me. :)
I couldn't think of a better way to show us some of your other lovely paintings! Always lots to learn from you, Louise. Thank you!
I'm a huge fan of your amazing pieces Louise! I absolutely cried my eyes out over the fanrtastic bloopers! please include these more in the future! its great to see that such a pro like you can have some little hiccups at times :,D ♥ You're amazing! keep up the amazing work and grats on your studio! :,3 Love from Sweden! & a fellow watercolor enthustiast!
You are amazing, both as an artist, and as a teacher. Thank you for sharing your artwork and your knowledge of watercolor with us!
You are a good teacher for water colour
so thoughtfully explained, so clear and understandable and thorough - a true teacher. Thankyou Louise... you are providing much needed help that is not easy to find on the internet or from books!
You are a wonderful teacher Louise. I appreciate you so much. 💕
Thank you for the tip on sponging up the excess water from the paper before adding pigment. Simple to do and highly effective!
Your tutorial about paint consistency was Extremely Helpful to me. I am still a beginner and have made many of the mistakes you demonstrated already. Your explanations about correction are kind and encouraging, which I appreciate. Thank you for the demonstrations alongside of your pallette - and for slowing the process down. Best wishes!
Thank you for sharing your watercolor expertise, Louise. I love your painting techniques and your soft, pleasant voice. I always learn something new from your tutorials. 😊
Such a great explanation of when to use dry or wet papers and how to know how much water to add to paint. This was very helpful!
Merci Louise pour toutes ces explications ! Personne jusqu’à présent ne m’avait donner toutes ces astuces et conseils très avisés, je pense très sincèrement que vous êtes mon artiste préférée, j’aime votre simplicité, votre générosité, votre talent, et votre dicton …… 😊 Je vais sûrement aller faire un tour sur Patreon si j’y arrive, car la technologie et moi ……. Je vous suis assidûment, ne vous arrêtez jamais de peindre, votre Art est si beau !! Merci, pour tout Louise, je vous suis très reconnaissante. À très bientôt. Patricia
Thank you sooo much for that tips, exactly what I need now for my beginning of my watercolor journey. Coming from painting with acrylic, working with watercolor is so much different and harder. So I'm so thankful for your tutorials and tips ❤
Thank you so much Louise, this is very helpful. Paint and water ratios are indeed very difficult - your patience and expertise are invaluable ❤
It’s always so impressive to watch you work! Thank you for sharing these helpful tips with us ❤️ your paintings are awe inspiring!
You are so talented! Looks like you can make a painting of anything and they are all lovely. Such a good teacher.
Thanks so much 😊
Oh gosh, your bloopers are so charming x
I “LOVE” ❤️❤️❤️ your videos. Thank you. And your voice is so pleasant to the ear! Thank you so much!
Wow! Karma does play a role in my life! This is PERFECT timing from you Louise. I am going to share this with my “ Team Beginner” class I am teaching at the moment. We have reviewed these concepts and you have explained them even better! ( no surprise as you are brilliant teacher!) I hope you get 15 more subscribers and maybe some Patreon followers as I will encourage them ( again) to follow you. The words you use are fabulous and clear! Even I have a reason now for why I do something like apply water to a larger area to work the first wash, instead of just intuitively doing it.( 9 years of practice of course which I forget counts too 😂😂) loved how you explained the paint consistency too! Much easier than tea, coffee, milk and cream. So glad to see you so well and voice sounding much better. Stay healthy! Hugs from Texas.
Thanks so much Alison. I hope you enjoy teaching and spreading the love we have for painting in watercolour. 😘💕
Indeed she is a watercolor angeles 😇.
I am a beginner, and this really helps thank you!
I agree with Siddharth. Your voice is so soothing. Doing lessons with you is 1/2 art and 1/2 therapy!
As much time as I spend in the kitchen, when I was once told the three consistencies are similar to tea, coffee, milk, and cream, it really resonated. I guess I'd add the 5th consistency to this example as "paste". Breaking it down to only 3 consistencies makes it even easier.
Thank you very much for ALL your lessons. Looking forward to many more in the new studio!
Thank you for this video! It showed up on my feed at the perfect time. It answered so many of my frustrations. I couldn’t figure out what I was doing wrong. Now I know and what an improvement. Subtle tricks that made such a difference for me! Again thank you. You are the best!
I prefer this instruction of skills like paint mixing and density so much better than the videos that demonstrate grab and go techniques.
Thanks for sharing how and why. I like that you demonstrate taking time patience and skill
Hi Louise. What a fantastic teaching video. So helpful especially for new people. Excellent 👏👍❤️
I love love your tutorials. And your outtakes are hilarious. Keep them coming,..
I absolutely love watching your videos! I learn so much
Thank you for these examples of water amounts verses paint and watered downed paint to wet paper….great and clear explanation and examples.
Another great lesson. Greetings from Cornwall.
This is a super helpful tutorial. I’ve been subscribed for about 2 years now and you never disappoint. You are a very talented artist and your artwork is so stunning. Thank you for sharing your knowledge with us. 👍👍
Thank you Louise. This way of thinking about paint-water consistency is much easier to understand and remember than the coffee-millk analogy because I'm from a country where coffee is often made as thick as pouring cream 😄.
So true , practice is the only way to improve. Thanks so much
As a beginner, I have really struggled with paint consistency and really appreciate your video and clear explanations and demonstrations. Thank you!
My pleasure. Thank you Lori.
Love your humour too!! You're a hoot 😂
The bloopers are a gem 😂
Thank you for demystifying water control-it's very helpful. And I got a real chuckle as you worked your way through the flubs at the end of the video. :D
I always learn from you and feel inspired. I also always laugh hard with the bloopers at the end. Thank you for including those.
Thank you, Louise, such a helpful explanation!
I just finished taking my first watercolor class with a renowned artist. You complement him in an excellent way! Thank you!
Thank you. You addressed all my issues with watercolour
Glad it was helpful. Thanks Carol.
Most helpful tutorial I’ve come across so far!! I just joined your Patreon and can’t wait to get started! I’ll likely start with your hummingbird tutorial.
I really appreciate you showing us a failed painting. I often feel fear to paint. Even fine artists like you make failed paintings... that encourages me a lot.
I'm glad. I have had more than I can count. Thank you!
I so needed this! I now know that I was using way to much water. Thank you!
Such a great tutorial‼ I learned a great deal from you today‼💕
Wow as I was watching and listening you answered my unspoken thoughts and "what ifs"
Thank you so much for your clear concise tutorial, I am re-inspired to try watercolours after losing confidence in my abilities 🙏🏻💯💐
I suoi consigli sono stati davvero preziosi.graZie
As always excellent and I know I must practice,practice and Practice thank you for your help.
One of the very best tutorials on this subject that I have ever seen!! Wish I had known on my first lesson! Thanks to you others can learn this and I can review from time to time! Thank you!!
Thanks very much Donna.
Remarkably instructive. Thank you so very much.
i missed you .i havent heard your sweet voice in a long time.i love learning from you and the funny endings
Thank you Gina.
GREAT TEACHER!! THANK YOU
This is useful for painters of all levels. I still use too much water at times, as I used to watch a TV program with Alwyn Crawshaw who always stated, "Bags of water!" What is so very helpful is the outstanding close-up photography, in which one can readily see the moisture content.
AWESOME!!!!!!!!!! Thanks, now I get it.
Thank you so much, Louise. You always explain things so clearly. I’m now doing more advanced painting but this was still helpful. Looking forward to the simplicity of that beautiful rose. ♥️
Thanks sharing your knowledge!
Soooo very helpful to a beginner and new subscriber like me. I like your style of teaching and your content is useful and practical. I will practice your techniques and look forward to learning more. Thank you ☺️
Thank you, that was so clear and helpful.
Best video I have EVER watched on youtube, I am sure this took quite a while to put this together, this helped very much, thank you.. Your paintings are amazingly beautiful..🤩😍
Glad it helped! Thanks very much Ali.
Thank you for sharing such an informative lesson.
You are so good at explaining. Always a joy when you post. Your little outtakes are such fun.
thank you! You always explain everything so clearly and it’s always such a treat to see you demonstrate the techniques using several previous paintings
You are so beautiful just like a doll.. I wonder how you might have looked when you were young. Thanks for teaching us for free.😊😊
This has been a very helpful video. Thank you.
Thank you very much, Louise! 🥰🙏🏻
This was extremely helpful. Thank you so much❣️
Loved your out takes at the end- I would never have believed you could make any errors or be so funny!! You have helped me continue with water coloring even when my progress has been slow or frustrating! Thankyou!
Thank you very much, it is a valuable demonstration, I love your videos !
Thank you for teaching me about hard and soft edges. An artist once said they didnt want anyone copying their work. I couldnt have laughed harder. My birds would never compare to anyone elses because I am new to watercolor. I'm lucky if the eye looks correct!!!! I cant even paint feathers !!!
Thank you 😊 I appreciate your knowledge.
A great video. Sooo helpful when you are new. 👏🌹
Your hilarious eat the end! Love you thanks again!!!!!
So very helpful and informative. Thank you
Louise,
Wow !
So much info. You stay on track and teach w/every sentence.
Thank you
Thank you for sharing your talent.
Ty 🤩 gratings from Sweden 🇸🇪 🌸
I do love these videos where you show several different paintings as examples as you explain a concept!
This is an especially great subject, since everyone on YT talks about "water control" but does not really explain what that is. I also like Handprint where Bruce explains it as a triangle where you have to find a balance between paper wetness, brush wetness, and paint concentration.
Thanks Louise. Such clear instruction at a pace that allows me to take the info in.
You are an absolute joy to watch! I have learned more from your video about water consistency than I have from the multitudesI've viewed over the last 7 years. I feel so happy to have discovered your channel. Thank you for all the practical application of knowledge you have shared. And your little out takes and bloopers at the end of the video or just icing on the cake! Absolutely Charming! I look forward to spending a lot more time with your Channel. Your style of imparting knowledge and practical application instruction is easy-to-follow, concise, end so well timed with the examples. Thank you so much for sharing your extensive knowledge of watercolor...❤️❤️❤️😃😃😃
What a fantastic tutorial. Clear and concise. I’m a complete beginner and I’m finding your tutorials so helpful. I love your style of painting and I love the bloopers. I think someone else mentioned that they laughed out loud. I did too. I’m working my way through all of your videos and looking forward to seeing many more. I’m so glad I found your channel. Thank you.
Thanks very much Nancy.
Very helpful! Thank you for sharing.
Thank you again, Louise.
FWIW, I learned back in the day to start a landscape by doing a light wash of the sky color over the entire paper-just a noticeable difference over the plain paper itself. This “poisons” all the highlights and shadows with sky color which occurs naturally, a wonderful characteristic of watercolor! Oils, not so much…
Enjoy!
A great tip. Thanks for sharing Kevin!
Excellent work - thank you
Wonderful advice thank you!!
Clear, direct and extremely informative -- thank you! The camera work in your videos is also exemplary in that you offer helpful examples and film them clearly w/o fuss.
Very good instruction!
Just unbelievable
Thanks so much. Your tips are really helpful
I have been following your instructions for a while now but it is always helpful to be reminded of the basics. Thank you!
This was very informative Louise. Looking forward to the rose tutorial 🌹
I AM SO VERY THANKFUL FOR YOUR TEACHINGS AND BEAUTIFUL ART! THANK YOU VERY MUCH FOR ALL YOU DO TO SHARE THESE TREASURES !
Thanks Louise, very interesting.
