Thank you very much Mandar. Ooh, a Lion, now that's an excellent challenge for you. Why not test out on some scrap watercolour paper using some fine lined masking fluid to reserve some hairs. You can even add the masking fluid over the top of paint as well, but remember to test any ideas out first. Paul 🎨

Which of these fur painting techniques will you be using in your watercolour paintings? Do you use any others? Let me know in a comment below. And don't forget to check out my video on a VERY furry Raccoon too: kzread.info/dash/bejne/a358vNx8fJCbeKw.html

Hi! I'm in the middle of painting a mother grizzly doing a little fishing to feed her cubs in the background. I'm trying to keep the bears from clashing into the forest background. I'm very new to watercolors after doing acrylics for many years.

@TheDevonArtist

Hi Rhonda, what a lovely project to be working on! As long as you keep the background less defined and to a duller, cooler feel, the bears should come forward a little more. Enjoy the process, Paul 🎨

Hello merci beaucoup pour votre réponse aussi rapide....Ok pour le pinceau et finalement c est ce qu'on invente qui va le mieux.... Je vais aller voir votre vidéo et comme vous j adore la faune et la flore...Je pratique l acrylique et l huile,un peu de pastel, mais je n ai pas encore peint à l aquarelle et ce que vous faites est très beau et surtout très réaliste c est superbe j adore.....Merci encore Marie

Bonsoir Je suis fascinée par votre peinture qui est splendide.!!! Votre méthode semble très intéressante mais hélas je ne parle pas votre langue alors je vous regarde....Pourriez vous me dire quel est ce pinceau que vous utilisez pour faire le pelage de cet ourson? Ce pinceau qui a le manche rouge......et comment l on s en sert ? Existe t il en France.? Merci à vous et encore bavo pour vos peintures et votre partage sur KZread Marie

Salut Marie, merci beaucoup pour vos aimables paroles, comme vous pouvez le voir j'adore peindre la faune à l'aquarelle. J'utilise Google Traduction pour saisir cette réponse. Le pinceau que j'utilise pour peindre plusieurs lignes à la fois est fabriqué par moi-même. Tout ce que j'ai utilisé, c'est une très vieille brosse, qui était prête à aller à la poubelle. Voici un lien vers une vidéo sur ici comment j'utilise et fait ce petit pinceau basique, d'aspect rugueux mais à effet. Je lui ai donné un nom et il s’appelle maintenant un réplicateur. LOL Merci, Paul bit.ly/2HKTDAv

Age shouldn't be a barrier Gayle. I have a list of all the materials I use on my website if it helps. As you have found out, you don't need a lot of equipment, but good reliable (not too expensive) brushes are a must. Here is my website link for you: devonartist.co.uk/materials-i-use-or-recommend-for-realistic-watercolour/

What type of brush are you using?

Hi Heather, sadly I don't know the stockists where you are. If you have a look at my product's page, it will give you some ideas on the items you need to search for over cross the water there. devonartist.co.uk/materials-i-use-or-recommend-for-realistic-watercolour/ I'm guessing the Winsor & Newton size 00 brushes should at least be available where you are.

May I ask how long this took you to do approximately and roughly how many layers do you estimate? Thanks.

@TheDevonArtist

29 күн бұрын

As a guess I would say four layers, starting with a background wash, then light, mid and dark layer tones for the details. Time wise, hard to say, but I would place it around the 15 hours mark. 😊
