Your use of the brush with restraint is fascinating. I love the use of the”blooms” without trying to correct them.
Gorgeous stuff 👏👏👏 With the use of multiple pigments and tonal values, you have further enhanced the beauty of this intelligent bird.
This was exquisite. Rarely do I see someone with such a solid vision of what they want to do. Thank you.
Your style is just stunning! Ethereal and truly artistic :) could you make more tutorials where you show us your mixing methods and paint consistencies?
Your painting style reminds me of when I get a flash of memory of some happy time I had almost forgotten about, where the details are a little undefined here and there, but the feeling comes back to me with a big burst of emotion. The way you layer and add blooms and switch it up between opaque and translucent and have hints of dry brush texture -- it's very evocative and effective.
I also wanted to mention that the New Gamboge + Perylene Red you started with is such a delicious color of orange.
So beautiful and spirited...thank you for sharing your process!
I love it. Nice job.
Poetry in painting. ❤
I like the sense of fluidity in this. Very nice !
That was well done and really enjoyable to watch. I'm totally amazed you got anything to look so good on that horrid paper! Think I'm gonna sub and see what other tricks you can pull off (wink).
Your glazing and layering are always on point when it comes to values. You capture the light and dark areas really well. Would you do a values tutorial and how you apply the glazing technique? How do you plan where the dark and light areas would be?
Nice techniques! The result conveys a lot of action, feathered, flight… ❤
I love this style so much ❤

A gorgeous painting aided with your knowledge on glazing, layering, wet on wet... But this tutorial was difficult to follow, (and I'm not a beginner) For beginners I can only guess that understanding how you achieved your stunning piece may be met with confusion and maybe even frustration.
I come in peace, lol, but I'm remembering what it was like trying to learn & understand why my painting always looked heavy, overworked and with dirty looking colours. You clearly are extremely talented hence why I'm leaving this comment. :)
Honestly, feedback like this is super helpful for me, so thank you!! Sometimes it's hard to gauge what's good for a beginner and what isn't, and it's still something I'm working on with the videos
@@boxesofsheep your work is amazing but seconding this comment; its unclear whether you intend your videos to be instructional. With this one, for example no mention of drying between some of these layers.
@@CastleMc Yeah. I think the problem was that I was trying to be somewhere between a full instructional video and a paint with me style video without committing entirely to either one. Which is why i didn't end up explaining every single step. And that was laziness on my part! I'm on a break from making videos right now (ugh health issues!!) but I'm planning on doing some restructuring and brainstorming with future content and I'll make sure to clearly separate the two types. And make the tutorials longer and much more detailed.
@@boxesofsheep Best wishes on recovering your health, which is even more important than watercolor! Your fans will look forward to your return-even if you provide no instruction it is fun to watch you paint
Absolutely gorgeous work

I'm not too quick on the uptake, but watching someone layer watercolors and hearing about which colors are being used does not necessarily translate, in my opinion, into explaining HOW to layer watercolors.
It's a lovely video. I was expecting something a little different, based on the title. But, like I said, I'm not too quick on the uptake!
This video on layering is by far the most intricate I've seen. So don't worry about your uptake ! 😉 This one is super classy, but there's lots of simpler ones if you're interested. Some negative painting tutorials have great layering techniques too.
did you dry between any of those layers?
I'd say yes, because you can see the newly painted layers would have sharp edges once applied.
Wow you did that on non 100% cotton paper??!???
Oh no it was cotton paper! I just use the canson xl cover as paper storage 😅 it would have been SO MUCH chaos with canson, I can't even imagine
I was wondering the same thing. I've only bought one xl canson years ago from michaels but it had me wanting to quit watercolor before I really even started. Turned out later I learned part of the problem was bad sizing as it just skipped right over those areas without taking the paint but part was it just didn't perform well for me. 😂
Love the beautiful bird and every video you make is always beautifully done and a joy to watch.
Oh. I saw the XL cover too and got excited, oops.
Merci ❤ avez vous un modèle
Your painting is beautiful but without the picture to do the sketch from, we cannot follow along appropriately.
I liked it a lot till… you used the white/grey gouache. I’d rather had
you see lifting these spots to make them lighter and thus giving more depth and life to the painting. In my opinion using gouache is almost a no go with water colour.
I’m bemused. It looks to me like you created a lot of cauliflowers, and were just fine with that, given the result. So … yeah 🤷🏻♀️
Yeah, I'd blame the paper. Pulp paper makes water control much harder. I'm not sure why they're using professional watercolors on cheap paper.
Not everyone has the budget for high end everything! Some artists have to make choices. I think in her video on paper she talks about what she likes in a paper. I, for one, actually like the blooms and unpredictable things watercolor does when you play. What fun is art otherwise?
If she wanted to use 100% cotton. There must be a characteristic of the pulp mix that she prefers/ fits her style.
The cauliflowers are beautiful, I think!

She said it was cotton stored under an old xl pad cover.
