Hi there! This video is a loose follow-up to my video on blending and edge control in watercolor (you can check it out here: • Watercolor Blending an... )
This time I want to focus on how different levels of wetness influence the movement of paint and water.
🎨 ADVANCED WASH CONTROL 🎨
In this tutorial I want to present you with several scenarios in which every wash has different levels of wetness.
We'll try a wet + wet combo, wet + dry, dry + wet and dry + dry.
I'm using Phthalo Blue (Winsor Blue by W&N) and Quin. Rose (by Daniel Smith).
🎨 TOOLS I'M USING 🎨
1. Saunders-Waterford paper, cold-press, 300gsm
2. Silver Black Velvet Brushes - get them here: amzn.to/2JwVfJW
3. Winsor & Newton (Winsor Blue) & Daniel Smith (Quin. Rose).
🎨 2-ANGLE CAMERA 🎨
I used my iPhone together with my camera to shoot from two angles (:
Let me know what you thought of this one. Hopefully it will make the video more interesting.
Also - let me know if you found this helpful, and if you want me to follow up with another video.
And I'll talk to you again really soon.

Extremely helpful. Thank you! So many videos show only the “painting process,” on the paper, ignoring the all important stuff that goes on with wetting the brush and moisture levels. You are performing a unique, much needed service with this type of video.
Thank you so much, happy this one can help in that way (:
I don't assume anything, so trying to be as detailed as possible ^_^
The camera angle changes helped tons thank you
I love how you create content that show things that may seem insignificant while painting to other youtube artists so they not really upload videos like this. I find yours pretty informative; the topics you address help to understand the behaviours watercolor adopts and I think it is very important while learning. Thank you so much 💓
I also like the 2 camera angles 😀
Thank you so much ^_^
I try to have a "nothing's too obvious" mentality.
And happy you like the double angle :D
I am so ready for this information. At three years into learning the craft I've learned that there is SO MUCH TO THINK ABOUT. With some of the water applications/options a bit more under control, I'm ready to think about what "this" paint (in all its properties) will do....and then make a choice about when/where to use it or not. One paint (brand/pigment) at a time. I get much joy from all of this, and thank you for all you've contributed to my efforts these past few years.
Wow, thank you so much ^_^
Really happy to be able to help and be a part of this journey!
I like the two angel camera work very much! But.....maybe raise the second camera up just a touch? Great lesson by the way. I tried it and actually had some success. Thank you.
Thank you 😊🙏🏼
Happy you found this helpful!
I am still playing around with the angles and learning what works best (:
Great video, Liron. This was something I didn’t mess around with for a long time. I always built up layers and never thought I would get into it but now I use it constantly. Love the 2 camera angles. Your videos are some of the best out there.
Thank you so much ^_^
After building some experience in layering, you'll be surprised at what extra dimension can be added by applying this sparingly into a painting - for example in only one or two spots (:
I agree with 150%! Not good at thus technique at all and this was so helpful.
Thank you Liron. I am weak at gauging how to apply this technique with the various pigments and water application. This was so very helpful and I’m going to experiment using your suggestions today!
I'm following along on this video again, on the same piece of paper I used last time, and there is noticable improvement! Thank you for these lessons, they are so helpful.
I have recently found your videos and have learned so much. I don’t want to do anything but watch your videos and then paint! I love that you share how you are progressing as you learn new things. I really liked seeing how the different wetness of neighboring paints affect each other in this video. But, I don’t really understand when or how you would want to use the different combinations. When I took two watercolor classes years ago, I learned to wet the section I wanted my background paints to enter, then let the background totally dry before doing anything else to avoid mud. That worked pretty well. But you don’t paint this way and I really like your results! I just need to understand when to use each combination of edges. Thanks for all your wonderful teaching!
Great demo! Thanks, Liron!
My pleasure, thank you! ^_^
Thank you
Very useful.
excellent detail - learnt much I did
Excellent tuition. Thank you very very much as it’s so clear
Awesome Video! Thank you!
Great video - straight to the point, precise & clear. Thankyou!
Enjoyed your demonstration.....makes sense......
Useful!
Your nail is soooo cleannnnnnn and beautifullllll😍😍😍😍
Thank you Liron!! I like the different camera angles, but when we’re trying to see how the watercolor behaves the overhead shot is easiest. 😁👍🏻🎨💜
Thank you - this is really helpful ^_^
I will make sure I show the right moments from the overhead shot!
Thank you for sharing this! Very helpful information.
So happy to hear ^_^ Thank you!
Massively helpful Thankyou so much!
I love your videos! I just found them and subscribed, keep up the great creations!
Stick with overhead camera shot.Great video as always 🤟
Thank you 😁🙏🏼
I appreciated thoughts about how water behaves and paint. Thanks.
My pleasure, thank you 😊🙏🏼😁
Very interesting and helpful, need to put this in a special map here so I can go back and see it again when I need to remember this good stuff👍🏻
Thank you for this video, it is very helpful.
Thankyou. So very helpful!
Happy I can help 😊🙏🏼 thank you!
Very helpful and informative.
Happy to help! Thank you 😊🙏🏼
Youre amazing!
Wow thank you! (:
Awesome 👏
Thank you 😊🙏🏼
This video is so helpful!!! Thank you...
Happy to hear! Thank you ☺️
VERY useful!!! Thank you!!!
So happy to hear, thank you 😊🙏🏼
Thanks for sharing the technique in the video! I enjoyed it and the other camera angles. :)
Thank you! (:
Happy you enjoyed and that the new angle works ^_^
Thank you. This type of stuff is so important to know if you want to control your paint for the effects you want. It takes a lot of practice, trial and error, but it is invaluable to becoming a competent painter. I am sure we will all get a lot of use out of this information. A playlist is a good idea, as well. Good work!
Yes! My greatest tip would be to just spend a lot of time playing around with painting and learning how it reacts (:
Will create the playlist soon!
Thank you ^_^
Thanks. Yes I like the second camera. It looks like it lets you get in close but not block video.
Awesome, thank you! Will try and do more of that (:
Me encantan tus videos gracias,, que marca de acuarelas usas? se ven lindos colores.
The 2-angle thing shiuld definitely stay. I liked the different perspectives
Liron, perfect for what I need to learn. I do love the camera angles. Great. I'll get back to practising. I'm still feeling like a klutz with all this. Slowly slowly. Tzipora
You got this!! 😁💪👏
It was a very good tutorial and I saved it, being able to go back to when I need to “update” my knowledge.
Thank you! I hope it will serve you well in the future ^_^
Liron Yanconsky I had to test it and get a feeling of “ahaaaaaa”
I just found this vid by accident. What a treat! I learned all this in my WC class at college but these things are good to go over again. Thank you so much! And by the way, personally I do not like the side view you sometimes use. Just my personal taste.
good job... great idea the playlist. this was very helpful. (:
Thank you ^_^
Playlist created and I hope to add more videos to it in the future!
Camera work looks GOOD! Mary from Toronto
Thank you Mary ^_^
Happy to hear it works well!
Fancy camera angles! :)
... makes up for the palette that freaks out my OCD lol!
😂😂 sorry about that
Lots of useful info 😊 Have you ever tried QOR paints? Their binder makes the paint flow so much, they actually defy gravity 😂 It is SO hard to control in wet in wet, I gave up... You see their pigments bullying any other paint in the wash. It's both amazing and terrifying.
Haha 😂
I’m planning on trying them in the future! I heard they go crazy wet-in-wet.
The camera work is great.
Liron, we have a good art store here in Jerusalem but I'd like to compare it to a store in Tel Aviv. Which do you recommend that has good quality selections and a variety? Next trip to Tel Aviv I'd like to go there. Thanks !
Lyron, I do these examples myself for practice and the paints dont flow on the paper the same way as yours do. Is is the paper? I practice on my moleskine artplus coldpressed sketchbook, 25% cotton. Should I buy a 100 cotton or continue with what I have? I have a bamboo one too but i have never used it.
Hi Liron - Good technique. What paper are you using for this demo? Thank you.
Thank you ^_^
I'm using a Saunders-Waterford, cold press - 300gsm. Will add that info to the description (I always forget and it's important! haha).
I keep expecting to see blooms. Why isn’t that happening? And thanks for creating a playlist for beginning painters!
There are a few gentle ones here and there (:
But it's all about the timing and wetness. Because I'm preserving a similar level of wetness = no blooms! Even in different consistencies and values, the speed of placing the shapes ensures they blend together evenly and don't have major differences. It would take a bigger contrast of wetness to create blooms (in other words, I'll need to have a wet area touching an area that's perhaps 70% dry, and I avoid that here).
I think I like the differing camera angles.
SAA uses that camera angle some and it’s effective I think.
Helps for keeping the viewer's attention (;
Thank you ^_^
I had to learn all this stuff the hard way. Only you and Handprint dot com actually discuss it, if memory serves. Kudos =)
Haha, me too!
Sometimes that's the only choice (;
Thank you ^_^
Aaaaaaaaa!! It's chemistry!! It's the concentrations of the pigment in the solutions!! (Now my brain hurts. I enjoy light bulb moments but some times it makes me a little crazy, too!!)
Haha I get it (:
Give it some time to sink in and soon it will become automatic!
What company are the brushes that you use
These are mostly Silver Black Velvet, sizes 8 and 12 (:
How do you keep the colors from contamination? I have to continuously clean my palette, maybe I need a larger palette ugg
If you add enough paint on top of an area with existing paint in the palette - it overpowers it 😁
I’m all about offense - I don’t clean the grays, I overpower them 😉
Nice! I will Overpower them! (and get a larger mixing palette)
Love your videos!
Liron, you bully!! I cringe at the state of your palette, too OCD for mine to look like that, but it works for you!! 😬🎨😬🙄
OMG!!!👌👌👌👌👌👌👌👌👌👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👏👏👏👏👏👏
:D
Thank you!
The paper type and quality also highly alters the result, did you test these with 100% cotton paper? I got a chance to try cheap 100% cotton to do this on, and cheap cellulose, all sized for watercolor paints, additionally, paper weight, also hot-pressed and cold-pressed or even rough surface, they contribute to how the paper stay wet or soak up water that each can give or take out more working time for the desired result. all is in the thickness of paint, even the brush can make it different, e.g., waterbrush regular user may experience 'drier' overall result, squirrel being very thirsty can just drop blob of uncontrollable water, hit the wash with the tip or the base of the ferrule or squish the brush with the tip, etc.
generally, most cellulose paper can make it more difficult to do wet-in-wet nicely(the bloom appears more prominently) somehow the 'sponginess' of 100% cotton was astoundingly different when I try it.
Yes! That is so true (:
I find my results to be very similar to your conclusions. Some are better for certain aspects.
Here's what I'll add - no matter what type of paper you use, it's a good idea to do this kind of experimentation.
That way you will learn that specific paper's quirks and funny behaviors.
Can anyone tell me where I can get an empty tray like that?
Do you refer to the palette? It's a Mijello 18 wells airtight palette.
Let me know in case you meant something else (:
@@LironYan Thanks for the reply. That's exactly what I was asking. I've been looking around but can't find one with consistently good reviews.
TYSM! tHiS WaS sO UsEFul!!!
So happy to hear! Thank you ^_^
Sometimes the basics matter the most
interesting but a little bit confusing.
Wet the paper. That's how watercolors work.
Depending on the result you want to achieve (:
Plenty of approaches can work
I tend to use a lot of wet into wet myself! instagram.com/p/BiWEsdpBdRn/?hl=en&taken-by=nathandixonart
Wow that's beautiful! ^_^
Following!
Thanks man! I really appreciate it!
Islam is the truth🌸💕💕
this is not how to merge two colours , wrong.
Nope no nope no - too many camera angles, too many cuts. Jarring
