Secret to Quick and easy painting...Enjoy the process, that's it, learn to enjoy what you do!

In this week's installment of Watercolor Theory, we're excited to introduce a new segment titled "Just for Fun." These paintings, intentionally smaller in scale, serve as valuable practice sessions, diverging from our typical gallery-focused content. Offering a seamless and straightforward painting experience, they provide insights and rewards without the need for extensive equipment like splashing brushes or safety goggles.
Our inaugural video coincides with Earth Day, observed annually on April 22nd, as well as National Jelly Bean Day. Stay tuned for the upcoming release of this engaging video tutorial.
We regret to inform our viewers that the initial portion of this painting was compromised due to a camera focus issue. As a result, the video commences from the midpoint of the creative process.
I trust you'll find joy in painting along with me. Please feel free to leave comments, share, and like the video. Your engagement is greatly appreciated.
Watercolour Philosophy. Watercolor is a relationship between Water, Pigment and the brush, you are merely the facilitator.
OR
I'm going to give you a little advice. There's a force in the universe that makes things happen. And all you have to do is get in touch with it, stop thinking, let things happen, and be the ball.
-Ty Webb Caddyshack
Brushes, brushes are merely tools in your tool kit. I have 50 Cent brushes (cost 50¢ not the rapper 50¢) and I have a brush that costs $300 (it was a gift). I get more joy and usage out of the 50 Cent brushes, not because they are 50 cents but because through them, I am able to better communicate my vision.
In closing, many people are defined by their problems; learn to be defined by your solutions, your world and your paintings will change for the better.

I use an assortment of products.
Brushes, I primarily use squirrel hair quills(Amazon), and Hogs hair chip brushes (local craft store).
Paints are from Daniel Smith, Winsor and Newton, QOR, and Schminke.
Papers are all #140 Arches, Fabriano, Lanaquarelle, New York Central (Jerry’s Artarama), Kilimanjaro (Cheap Joe's) and Saunders Waterford. My preference is rough but I also use cold press, I have some #300 and will note when I use it.
