Wow! There are so many videos on KZread telling you how to do something correctly but rarely one like this that not only tells you the wrong way to do it but side by side with the correct way. Fantastic!!! 👏🏼

Thank you! I'm so happy it's helpful! Sometimes people say "I want to loosen up" but they don't know what they are doing wrong. I was hoping this video would help with both ☺️

Thank you so much! I learned a lot. Now I know why my sketches usually turn out better. I’m not scared and consequently, my brush marks are freer and looser. 😊 when I paint on expensive paper for the purpose of painting something really beautiful, I lose this freedom, and usually am not really content.

Just discovered your channel after practicing watercolour painting for around two years now. What a wonderful discovery! You absolutely nailed it, clear and concise explanations, spelling out every thought during your demos, a precious resource for me personally! Learning a lot from you, you filled in important gaps of knowledge, ideal for intermediate painters. Thank you ever so much!

Thank you M! I try to explain think as best as I can. It's so good to hear it's clear and it's helpful 😊

Going to be honest, I used to be so careful with watercolors. I always made sure every stroke had a reason and looked how I wanted it to in my mind. Then I began to supplement my technique and process with other mediums such as watercolor pencils and caran d'ache pencils, and I began painting more like how you recommended. I took on a 'have fun with the colors and see what the paints do, if it's horrible I can fix it later' mentality. Lots of wet on wet with big brushes and not being worried if it wasn't perfectly in the lines. This helped me so much with feeling less afraid of the medium, and having more fun with the process. As a result, a lot of my paintings looked more lively and experimental. Thank you for this video, the tips will help me with my new process of having fun with the artwork!

This is a very good approach Antares! It's a myth that watercolor is difficult: "if you do a brush stroke, it's there forever and you can't do anything with it"... I'm so glad you found your way and it relaxed you! The most important part is to enjoy, have fun, experiment. It's impossible to do it when you afraid. Experimenting usually leads to finding your style, something that makes you recognisable. There is always time to make something out of a "happy accident"! ☺️

Thanks ever so much for sharing your gifts with us! Moving quickly is a key to avoiding overworking, which I do often. Trying to be a "perfectionist" adds to the problem. We have to accept that the painting looks different in the beginning t the final product. Many KZread artists state that many paintings go through an "ugly stage" and one must just trust the process.

@nvfineartstudio7296

Жыл бұрын

Thank you Joy! Perfectionist is good, me too, you just have to guide it into correct technique...don't think "perfect object" think "perfect stroke that can represent this object. That's why I don't believe in "ugly stage", every wash for me is beautiful even if it doesn't look like a house or a car. But, you're absolutely right about trusting the process, because no matter how much you try to distract yourself from "looking at objects for what they are" at some point you still will compare your painting to what's infront of you...at this point you just have to trust 👍

Great tips. One thing l noticed is that in the "wrong" examples, and maybe you mentioned it, you also used a lot more pigment, which is my biggest problem. I really struggle to make my first washes and strokes thin and light, preventing much more layering. I constantly have to remember to go easy on the paint applications. This was very helpful. ❤

@nvfineartstudio7296

4 ай бұрын

Yes, you are right. But it's not just more pigment, it's more pigment everywhere. More pigment means darker tonal value, and you need to be strategic where you use light tonal values (sky, road, lit up areas), middle values (lightly shadowed areas) and darkest dark - full pigment saturation (no water in the mix) , only need to be reserved for darkest shadows/details etc. This is the hardest part to achieve smooth transition of full range of values in your painting

Great comment! Love to talk about that...my humbled answer is "Yes and No" :) when we are little we are encouraged to do whatever, it helps with "creativity" and "happy accidents". But if we want to repeat that happy accident on a daily basis we need to remember how we did that... that's when we make a rule/routine for ourselves...but again it doesn't mean that it has to be exactly the same as for the person next door...if you have 40 year infront if you, I'd say go your own way and never look around, but if you are retired and just started with watercolors it's best not to invent a wheel. Although, after a few years of practicing good techniques: perspective, proportions, values, colours, etc... I would definitely recommend to start finding your own way.

God bless youu

@nvfineartstudio7296

Жыл бұрын

Hi Ann, I usually use Arches, Saunders Waterford or BoaHong. Hot press is very smooth (same as ironed clothing), it doesn't allow for "dry brush technique", but great for hypo realistic works. Rough has the roughest texture, great for expressionistic style, dry brush marks, using granulated pigments and things like that. The cold press is in between, not too smooth and not too rough. It was pressed but without hit, so there is still a bit of texture there.

NVSTUDIO--pardon me but thats not over work, overwork is when you are in the 4th and5th level of detailing and layering, loosen up strokes is when your level of detail are only primary and secondary, values and bold and semi bold stroke with just one stroke wiouth reversing, painting is when you use brush with color in it then brush it out ,thats painting, by way of brushing, thats painting,the way of coloring by brushing. hope it would give more clearer understanding for the viewing and learning public and artist
