  • Watercolor pencils and How I use them... 3 techniques.
    1) Color in your petal or shape, with the colors you like, wet your paintbrush, no drips, and wash over the colors, allow them to blend and swirl together, get creative maybe red and yellow to make orange! Save those white spaces :-)
    2) Wet your Princeton 8 Velvetouch
    amzn.to/3RGJkz1 ( or Dugato Brush Set amzn.to/42NxUeX) and run it along the tip of your watercolor pencil, to pick up color, use it to paint your shapes and petals.
    This is great when your traveling, especially with a water brushes. (SO HANDY and easy to travel with. no water wells needed!) bityl.co/M2Fy
    3) Use your regular watercolors to paint your shapes, next, use your pencils to add details, viens in your petals, outline, whatever adds a little pop and interest!
    Most of all have fun, play, see what you can create.

    📜On PAPER, I’ve used Meeden and Artisto for many years, and you’ll see me use one or the other in most of my tutorials. My Meeden paper suggestion is 100% cotton, has a really great texture and is finer grade. My Artisto paper recommendation is student grade, handles lots of water, (still good for wet on wet) and is a bit less expensive.

    Debbie- you can create a palette of watercolor pencil on paper to use as a ‘glaze’ of sorts. The test swatch could be used to pick up color as a palette. You could even do a strip of water color rubbings and take with you on a trip! ;) Also.. if you work from the lightest part of the petal to the darkest you can get a softer looser look.

      This is also a great way to make "paint with water" pages for kids.. color a palette for them either on a separate sheet of cardstock, or directly along the side of the page and they can simply use water to paint. Really cuts down on the mess.

    I love WC pencils and I have all kinds from cheap to expensive. I must admit I don't use my Albrecht Dürer pencils very often. When I just wanna play around I usually grab the not so expensive ones. So if you don't want to spend a lot of money go for Koh I Noor or Stabilo or Giotto. They are great fun to use.

    Hi Debbie I mostly use the watercolor pencil for putting texture on my work instead of using a brush. You could use them for shadows also. So they do come in handy. Thank you 😊 . I just don't care for the separation of the colors. The pencils don't blend very well. Theres nothing like watercolors themselves. ❤. JK FLORIDA USA 🇺🇸

    • @DebbieWalkerArtmadeeasy
      @DebbieWalkerArtmadeeasy  9 месяцев назад

      I agree, I think if I practiced more I may be able to blend better, and blending light to dark also would be better, Next time! They are easy to travel with, much cleaner! Oh, and if you wet your brush and pick up the color from the pencils it acts like watercolors, and a much better flow and blend of colors. I think it was the third petal here I painted.

    • @DebbieWalkerArtmadeeasy
      @DebbieWalkerArtmadeeasy  9 месяцев назад

      Yes, you are probably true on that. I always use a cold press because I love that texture but I am sure using a hot press, the color pencils when you get them wet with blend much. I have tried so many papers in my workshops and for my videos and things and have found the Artisto be the best for myself for the price point, when I do something as a gift or a commission, I definitely use a arches or 100% cotton paper.

    Great video Debbie! Appreciate you taking the time to create this video for us:-) The different techniques were so helpful and you’ve inspired me to start using the Faber Castell pencils I have. I wondered if we can erase the initial pencil sketch after using the watercolor pencils? What are your thoughts on outlining a sketch with watercolor pencils? I tried doing so with sketching lemons the other day and unfortunately it was so hard to see the lemon yellow outline and then I wasn’t sure how the outline would look once wet and moved on to another painting:-0 Not to be greedy or anything,;-) but you mentioned water brushes - that would be another helpful video to show us how to use those especially, when traveling or for plein air painting. Many thanks!

    • @DebbieWalkerArtmadeeasy
      @DebbieWalkerArtmadeeasy  9 месяцев назад +1

      I’m so glad you are enjoying my videos. Yes you absolutely I’ve said it. In some other videos can outline and draw with watercolor pencils and then once you paint in the drawing, the watercolor pencil will blend in. I’ve used so many water brushes but the meat and one I really love. amzn.to/45VTC1C
      Like with water color, I’ve typically found occasionally you can erase a little bit of the pencil marks, but not typically doable

    I think it’s the same as anything else…you get what you pay for. If you can afford Faber Castell or Caran Dache, they will blend effortlessly. Pretty much anything else won’t. I have a small set of Lyra which I usually sketch with and then paint over or use to add extra details. Like yours, they don’t really look that good on their own since you can always see the pencil strokes and they leave some texture.

      Yes that certainly could be, I mostly just play with these, I have not tried the Faber Castell, although I will say these were not necessarily cheap.. As you said you just never know~ Fun to play with though :-)

    It seems like you really have to work hard to put the color on the paper. I think I would prefer a softer pencil or tube paint.

      Yes, thats typically why I just use my watercolors, I dont have the patience! lol I do like the second technique, it seemed to be the closest to using watercolors for me. Happy creating friend!
