    I have used a small white cutting board for a palette . It's roughness is similar to the Caran d'Ache palette.

    I really think all these tips are fab. 😊My two favorites are the splattering with pencil and brush and rubbing the watercolor pencil on the board to make watercolor paint with a wet brush. But the rest of the tips are great too. Thx as always Michele for this useful video. 🥰💕🐶💕🥰

    Michele, thank you for providing some basic instruction on the use and techniques for using watercolor pencils. I understand that producing these videos require a lot of time and effort on your part. I purchased the watercolor pencils to carry easily on my bicycle and do a quick sketch if I found something that sparked my interest. What I liked about them was not only did I have a sketch but also a color reminder. Thank you again, and I hope your channel continues to grow as you give good, solid advice.

    Hi Michele I love the way you did the petal. The graduating tip. Lovely. Also shaving the pencils for texture. My watercolour pencils have been hiding in the dark for a while now', it's time to bring them out into the daylight for some fun. Thank you for your genius tips Michele. Susan ❤❤❤😂

    Excellent, thank you. I’m generally WC paint but recently I wanted to use the many other fun WC tools I have acquired. I truly appreciate your demonstrations on the many uses, proper uses, of the pencils. No mind the whine bucket with too much free time. Status quo usage isn’t how you become a master or develop your own style. If you want to quick dip your pencil in a bit of water, then go for it. 😊 Experiment and have fun.

    This was great information. I use my pencils once I've finished an area and let it dry. It allows me to add some realism to an otherwise cartoonish looking painting.

    Michele 😄 I sometimes find Catracho’s hair in my mix. Thanks for bringing them (Gimlet and Catracho) up 😊 Also, shaving the pencils is awesome. Not only gives a great texture, but if I save the shavings after I sharpen the pencil, I can turn it into paint 😊

    Of course there's a cat's hair on the sample - that's the proof of the cat approval 😀 Thank you for those useful tips, my favourite is the explanation on mixing colours. "an 18 page rant" - oh yes, I sometimes see those, especially on art(sy) channels - the best of them explain something in detail to a professional. Makes me think of the guy who helped that female pro-golfer with her training 🤣

    I get a lot of mansplaining here too. A friend of mine is a computer engineer. It's quite normal for staff to walk right past her when she visits companies, or ask her if she's seen the engineer...
