Do you struggle with how much water to use? TIP: test your paint on a scrap piece of paper to see if you need more water! 🌟 Missed lesson 1? Watch here ► ruclips.net/video/Sj1smvMCvBI/видео.html
Thank you for making these tutorials. They're one of the clearest I have come across. You are majorly helping out an absolute amateur.
You're so welcome Laure! :)
I agree, and actually showing dipping the brush etc and testing paper. Amazing
Same here!
I am 71 yrs old and have always loved watercolor and have wanted to learn. Your tutorials are wonderful and I am jumping in! ❤ 7:35
Have fun!
Me too!! 😀
Me too❤
THANK YOU!!!!!! I am still a beginner but I was able to make a snap dragon plant to give to my husband for thanksgiving. I used all of your tips, thank you!
Just had to laugh while watching this! When you said you had a cat hair in your paint my cat jumped up on my lap and proceeded to watch your lesson. You make it look so easy. Thanks for these instructional and inspiring lessons!
Excellent tutorial, thank you.
I'm just starting watercolour painting and painting swatches like this is really teaching me about controlling colour, tone, the water, the brush, the pallette, cauliflowers, backruns, dry-lines etc ..... For me, it's learning the fundamentals, like learning musical scales before learning a tune.... Hoping to crack this soon before starting on colour theory, mixing and neutrals.... For me it's all about building experience, technique, and confidence while having lots of fun.
This is an excellent beginner tutorial. It answers one of the many questions asked by beginners
Thanks , I'm a beginner & you are a great help for me ,can't wait to do all kinds of flowers, I was born in Georgia , but stuck in Michigan, I just love the Southern flowers, Magnolias, cotton wood, Gardenias. ,

Thanks for a really good video.
I have a question - how long does it take for watercolour to dry so you can do the next layer? It looks dry pretty quickly, but I am guessing I should leave an hour or so (or even overnight?)
thank you!! this was fun and so helpful
You're so welcome Emmi! :)
Can I apply this technique for poster colours also?
Thank you. I'm just starting out. How come you didn't wet your paper before hand? Do you prefer the wet on dry painting?
Hi Selena! This lesson is to help you understand how much water to mix into paint to get the desired color or consistency. So it’s best to mix the water in your paint instead of wetting your paper first. In my opinion you’ll have better control of your paint if you do it this way for the lesson. I hope that makes sense! Let me know if you have any other questions ☺️
Super helpful.
Do you have any control over those puddles that leave curly edges like that?
Do you still do live water color tutorials weekly?
love this!
Thanks Bonnie! :)
That blueberry is a very pretty blue 😍
It's one of my favorite blues!
Excellent demonstration, very clear and I like that you did this with two very different colors. I notice that the Prima sets don't use standard names for their colors. The colors "blueberry" and "lime" looks exactly like phthalo blue and sap green produced by other paint companies. It makes me concerned that beginners who use this set might think that this blue is only available from Prima, when actually they are common colors. Have you used other brands of paint and notice other equivalents under different names?
Hi Ilah! Yes I have noticed that some paint colors are very similar or the same across different brands and sets :)
is it just me or is her voice very soothing?
Thank you 😊
Thanks!
You’re welcome!
Question… how do you go from light to dark when you do a gradient? I can’t seem to get my gradient swatches looking right. They seem to just wash together into one tint
OMG When I draw any shape with pressing the brush a little and it create a 3D SHAPE THING
😄
what size is brush you are using?
I am architecture student please make a video on display thats how to creat a display. Thank you❣
Why Putting my paint in the well it separates and gets into small bubbles
What size is the book you use to paint on?
I use 5x7 size in this video :)
Thank you so much love from India 🙂✨🤍
I was really frustrated because I couldn't figure out how to get different shades, but your video helped a lot! Thank you!
I'm glad it helped you! You're so welcome! :)
I tried to use the CC on this video and it came out as unintelligible language??
However, I sincerely love your videos!
Oh how odd! Thanks for watching my videos 😄
💖🖤❤️💕
are we there yet?
It'll premiere in a few minutes 😀
We have 10 cats in our house and nothing I do is clean and clear. Ever. Whether it be art or cooking or cleaning or sleeping... lol
Cat hair is everywhere. I keep sticky roller in my car before go
The voice.........................I'm getting sleepy. lol
Wonderful tutorials, teaching me a lot. But had to turn off audio and read the captions. The "little girl" voice just so distracting. I wonder if you talk that way in person and not just making a video. Bah ... had to turn the audio back on because the RUclips captions don't make sense. Okay. I'm back in, I guess.
