Hi there!!
In this video I am showing you a few different ways that I color water, snow and ice. I show some examples of pages I’ve done and then do a quick example of each type of water. I hope these little tips I’m sharing help ☺️

I loved the watercolor color effect, I’m also very impatient and I like it when things go fast 😍

I usually get impatient with finishing things, so if I can make it go faster, that’s the way for me! ☺️

SO sorry about that!! I’d forget my head if it wasn’t attached 😋 I was mostly working in Botanicum by Maria Trolle. And the snow page was in one of the Christmas books by Tatiana Bohemia Stolova. Thanks for watching!!
Your drawing off a dark background with the aurora boriales how did you do that please? Do you have a tutorial?
Do you have a color along for that mermaids 2 page spread in romantic country or can you give the color combos it’s lovely
Where did you get you romantic coloring book and who is the author
cool imagination of the paintings you make. see me, my friend. thank you my friend.

Your tutorial would have been more helpful if you used a watercolor pencil most people would have. How often does an inexperienced colorist, needing a tutorial, own Caran D’ache??

Thank you for your feedback. I did state in the video that any water mediums would work similarly, those pencils just happened to be what I had on hand. I luckily got them on clearance or I wouldn’t have them either 😉

@@Elmcolors thanks for sharing. No harm intended and I’m happy you have them as I hope to as well eventually. Guess I’m just looking for some decent watercolor pencils if you have any recommendations I’d appreciate it

@@synergyscrap I have tried the Arteza brand and they were decent. Some people had issues with there not being enough pigment, but it’s all about the layering with those. Unfortunately, with water mediums, you definitely get what you pay for. Cheaper brands will definitely take more work. And I appreciate all feedback ☺️ I want to make this a channel where everyone feels welcome, from beginner to more seasoned colorists.
