Is why it is called a discipline. Focus on your objective. Bending, or breaking rules at your own peril.(or in some cases peril becomes enlightenment) Once the basics are known and practiced, one could move on to bending and breaking said rules of the discipline. In Wu Shu I had to master sticky hands(bong Sau) before I could move to harder and harder body mechanics(Fuk Sao Dip Sao.....then weapons). After 12 years of focus, I am enlightened and I feel ready to venture away from the prison that is style and the trappings of technique to develop my own way of Tao te Ching and walking the path of the sage.

My favourite artist doing a video on my biggest problem and explaining it so well that even a toddler could understand. You made my day.

Rita .Sassatelli Use light wash of water, then use the color of choice, apply areas where there is light like yellow. Then repeat the process after laying down the base layer.

the problem with me and water colour is that I'm too impatient to wait around until everything is dry

Try using a heat gun or a hairdryer, it speeds up dry time by a lot

That smile in the end :D Thanks for this tutorial, it was very helpful! Your technique is really interesting, I never thought about letting everything dry, wetting it again and then adding the next layer - definitly have to try this :3

We've added English subtitles for the whole video this time! You can even let KZread translate them to your own language! Click the little gear icon (where you would choose a video quality), select Subtitles and then Auto-Translate. Try it out! :) EDIT: Русские субтитры доступны! Dostępne są polskie napisy!!

Omfg i love your hair XDD It looks so soft tbh

hmm...i wonder, why don´t you just add clear water instead of white to lighten up the skintone? in my experience white pigments in watercolors often kills the luminosity of the Colors and also make it hard to layer over it with darker Colors (for example: shadows) Also, there is the white of the paper, why not using it when it´s possible ;) anyways, great tutorial. love from Munich, Ira

Thank you ^-^ never thought you are from germany, too :D to answer your question, it's a matter of taste of course :) personally I like the skin more milky and dulled down and adding white helps to reach that tone I am looking for. But I rarely mix skin tones from scratch anyway, it was just to illustrate how I would do it :) I never experienced trouble with layering though ^^" Naples yellow reddish and a lot of other tones like turquoise or cobalt blue hue actually contain zinc oxide/titanium dioxide (white pigment), which is why you would have to use watercolor inks in the first place if you want to go for pure luminosity...^^ But I showed an example in the "HOW TO WATERCOLOR" video how it would look to do the skin only with transparent inks and it gets "radioactive" very quickly haha xD so yeah, it's up to your goal to decide what you want to use :) I hope I could help x)

what a cutie plushie you have behind you❤

I jumped and almost screamed when I had the notification ! Thank you so much for these explanations, I'm currently sketching my first semi-realistic drawing, and feared I would fail it with watercolors, especially with the skin, and now, I'm gonna be very careful but I won't hesitate to play with the colors and the layers ! Thank you for this !! :D

Your tutorials are great. There are plentiful tutorials out there on "what's a paintbrush" and then they skip to super complicated because the artist isn't explaining everything. There's a huge gap of "middle level" between those and your tutorials fill them. Thank you so much!

so pretty! bless your art skills T v T)

Nafleh Heart For watercolors or copics? He already has video for only copics. And I think you are actually looking for watercolor tutorial for hair.

Gosh, I find it so calming and satisfying to watch these watercolour videos with you explaining in the background.

I really love your Watercolor paintings of chole from Life is Strange dude!:)😍😍😍

this is the most helpful skin tone tutorial I've seen for watercolor so far! thank you!

So ein fein gemaltes Aquarell sehe ich zum ersten Mal! Megaklasse!

That was just magical as you brought her to life. Her skin looked touchable!

So far that's been the best explained tutorial I've seen on creating smooth transitions for painting the face. It looks so ethereal. So excited to learn this. I'm really hoping I will be able to be patient enough to do this all in pure watercolor.

Your work is amazing. I learned a tonne from this video. The colour wheel for skin tone shadows was an eye opener. Also loved seeing the Noctis painting. One day I hope to paint him walking down the stairs with his weapons flying round him. Totally a cliche picture but I love it. I'm quite a ways from being able to draw that though. Top lesson learned from this is patience...let it all dry. So happy to have found your channel.

Your skin tones are one of my favorites. This was so helpful, as watercolor is my favorite medium and I would love to have my skins as smooth as yours

I love to watch your videos. I work primarily digital myself, but I love seeing traditional techniques used in new ways. This one was especially helpful, because when I have used Watercolors, the skin has never come out right. I think a big part of that was my own lack of knowledge, using the wrong paper and impatience. Thank you for sharing your stunning art (and face!) with us. I'm grateful to have your presence here on KZread.

AH YES I'VE BEEN LONG AWAITING THIS. So so happy you did this, thank you SO MUCH!

I loveee how you explain things so effortlessly, I so lovee your stylee

What I've been doing wrong this whole time is not letting the skin dry between layers. I could have been a pro this whole time!!

I absolutely love you for the progress bar during silence to know when you'll speak again. So many times I've skipped through wanting to hear explanations during tutorials, but having a visible sign to know kept me patient. And thats on top of you answering all my questions as soon as I think of them! Amazing!

Omg thanks I've always wondered how you are able to achieve such deep and natural skins in your watercolor paintings ! Thanks!

Excellent example of how to render skin. The part where you wet the area first is really helpful. Thank you so much. I love your work. You are so talented.

Thank you so much for this!! Also, I love that you're getting on camera more ^^ makes your videos seem more personal~

I love how you describe every detail! So generous with the information. I love your channel. 💓

I just found your channel and I cannot tell you how grateful I am and how helpful these videos are! I am very new to watercolour but I am really enjoying working with it. Thanks again!

deine wunderschönen Bilder waren eine Inspiration für mich selbst mit Aquarell anzufangen

I just really really love the way you edit your videos they're so much fun to watch

Beautiful work! Very helpful with great tips. I appreciated that you keep the reference photo up too. Thank you for sharing!

Thank you so so sooo much for posting this! Smooth skin tones have always been a struggle for me, and watching your process was both informative and interesting. I hope to give your technique a try someday^^ I look forward to seeing more of your work on my feed in the future

oh wow. that looks amazing! i've been watching a lot of tutorials, tips and trix for watercolor lately since i'm trying to get good at using it, and i've not come across a similar "guide" like this so it was really good to see :)

Thank you!! So helpful! Love to watch you work!

Lovedd this tutorial! Thank you very much. The graphics you showed earlier on in the video were pretty concise! I didn't think of making a colorwheel for skin tones. I will be watching your channel. Thanks, Laovaan!

THAT IS ABSOLUTELY FLAWLESS!!!! Water color is a medium that I'm way too intimidated to use because of how precise and delicate you have to be. I usually work in acrylic because "eh, if you don't like how something came out, you can paint over it," haha. I may have to reach outside my comfort zone, though, after seeing this. Bravo, good sir! Bravo.

I honestly didn’t know watercolor paintings could be this smoothe.... I am blown away this is beautiful!

Thankyou for make this tutorial,It's so useful 💗💗💗

This was so interesting to watch as you brought this simple sketch to life! Your work is amazing ~~

POR FIN un tutorial simple, claro, profundo, completo y con una realización audiovisual inteligente! Felicitaciones y gracias. Te estaré siguiendo

i would love to see a video where you explain your process of creating those vibrant splashes of color that you add to some of your portraits. i love your work! you're such an inspiration and my number one favorite artist!

I love these videos. I think you're truly a great teacher because your voice is so calm and soothing as you go through the steps. It's encouragement without actual words like "You can do it". I've been using watercolour for awhile but I also learn so much from your videos. Thanks for sharing your knowledge.

You are brilliant! One of my very favourite artists all time! Keep up the awesome work you make the world better!

Now this man is a real artist! So amazing how this is coming together!!!

I've worked in several other mediums but I'm just now dabbling in watercolor painting. This was very helpful! Thanks!

Omg thank you. This has been the most comprehensible tutorial on skin that I've seen. I've been having the most troublesome time with making skin look smooth.

I've been obsessed with your work recently. and your teaching is I would say one of the best on youtube

Thank you so much Laovan for this amazing class.

Thank you so much Laovaan: this tutorial is incredibly details and well done.

This is the best tutorial I’ve come across so far! Thank you so much!

This was an amazing video! Thank you for making it! 💕 It helped me understand painting skin and shadow vs highlight, plus- your art is amazing and inspires me a lot. So thank you so much! This was gr8 m8

Laovaan the wizard! You can make the most incredible masterpieces! Thank you SOOOOO muuuuuch!

This is what I needed. This entire time I would just add skin color and then right after I would add my blush and shadows and more often than not I would get bad blooms and hard edges... Thank you so much for making this video!

Oh my God I tried out your tips and just painted the smoothest, most realistic looking skin I have every achieved with watercolors. This is the most helpful tutorial I have ever watched; my technique has been forever changed and I will now proceed to never paint skin another way again. Thank you so, so much.

you're an incredible artist! just subscribed! i hope your channel grows so more people can see this amazing content!

this video couldn't have come at a better time for me. Thank you so very much for your work in teaching such a complex thing in a way that makes it so easy.

Finally the skin tutorial from Laovaan!! Thank you so much for sharing with us. Its a detail tutorial and very easy to understand. By the way, I like Echolox's music too. Looking forward for both of your work 😀

Best tutorial I’ve watched yet thank youuuu

Thank you so much I learned so much for your tutorial, I have been using your layering technique for skin tones and my skins are so much more luminous. Love your channel ❤️

This helps so much, thankyou! You’re so blessed!

i have been waiting for this video :D thank you so much

I cannot express how helpful this tutorial is for me. Thank you so much for sharing your technique with us!

When you first showed this noctis drawing in this video I nearly fell of my bed because THIS IS SO PRETTY I HAVEN'T SEEN SUCH A GOOD WATERCOLOR PAINTING THAT LOOKS SO SMOOTH LIKE ALL YOUR DRAWINGS LOOK SO SMOOTH THEY ARE PERFECT
