Hello! Welcome and thank you for watching. Use what you have to create, the goal is just to #createwithoutfear. I will try to answer the other questions as best I can. You do not need water first, I just like the effects I can get sometimes. Lines are not necessary, it does help get me started, also adds to layers, depth in a painting. Luan is a plywood which is certainly good for a final painting to sell. There is better plywood than others. I work on a 1/4 inch that handles the wet better than most. I can't remember what kind of wood right now. I buy from the same old lumber man. 😁 Less water resistant board could delaminate and curl a little. I hope this helps a little. I cover a lot of this in other videos and live sessions. Stay tuned!
My english is Not very well so i say it in german. I hope you understand what i want to say. Ich mag deine spontane und freie Art zu malen. Den Kopf ausschalten einfach fließen lassen. Ich versuche das auch manchmal gelingt es aber oft auch nicht. Dann verzettel ich mich in Details , bleib stehen und bin verkrampft. Wie schaffe ich es mich fallen zu lassen ohne Druck etwas schaffen zu müssen ? Danke dir für deine inspirierenden Videos, LG Alexandra
Sometimes I start with lines to loosen up other times to help with blocking the composition. Many people use light pencil lines before using water colors too. I add black lines often in my finishing stages because they are all around us! Like power lines, shadows and branches in the forest.

Why are you drawing lines first? Is it a geometry pattern?
