My limited color palette consists of Quinacridone Gold (yellow), Permanent Alizarin Crimson (red) and Payne's Gray. For the background later on (stylization) I also used Shadow Violet by Daniel Smith, this color strongly granulates and helped me with some texture and effect. Hope you enjoy the tutorial!

This watercolor painting won a appreciator and u won a subscribe too

Incredible tutorial, this is like an entire skillshare class for free! I especially like how you broke down each layer into those steps at the beginning, thinking of it like that might help me not overwork layers so much. You're such a well spoken and encouraging teacher! 🥰

One of my favorites so far. I really like how you broke layers into cards while glazing. I usually just wing it or go with the flow imitating what I see knowing I have to put in my lights, midtones and darks. This kind of broke it down mechanically for me and made me think in a different way. I usually have a cow too when I put in the shadows. Im always thinking relax Jessica, you're not done and haven't put in the dark darks yet. It will fade. But I find those in between moments anxiety filled. When I'm done, I'm like I knew it would fade, why was I so worried. I need to try the gold leaf someday. Such a cool effect. I really enjoyed how organized this process (tutorial) was even tho you come off as a free spirit expressive most of the time. It's always helpful to see how other artists break things down and process things and how one can learn from different techniques or those that are different from our own. - Jessica

Hello Jessica, loved your comment! I guess my free spirit got only released for the stylization :D That was fun enough for me, as well as the gold leaf. You're so right about the stress when laying down the shading wash, I am nervous every time, even though many times I painted like that and it always, ALWAYS look so pale when you add hair & background. It's a psychological moment and I guess we have to use tricks for our mind there, to keep going :)

the point is with 100% cotton the dried version is way more lighter than 25% cotton. i switched between the two and often find 25% better than 100% for portraits. the darker values are more accentuated.

Oh by the way can you do a video on the colors you prefer in your palette?

such beautiful faces have less features, that's why older people is difficult to paint than younger.

Basically there are only 4 colors that is important: red, yellow, blue, black.

13:20- 23 you can see a change in filter so then which one is the real version? It seems filtered to look better than it is in real life- cameras are naturally good at that so it can be so misleading

@JaneBeata

5 ай бұрын

What filter?? Its two cameras, Nikon and Canon, each have a different color profile. I do live workshops and demos all the time, do not need to filter anything. This artwork hangs in my studio, visitors view it every weekend. Do you know that every device has its own color profile and shows internet photos and videos differently? There is no way to show artwork in a video in the same way you’d view it in real life. I assume every internet user knows that there is always some shift. This, however, doesn’t prevent one to carefuly explain the process, as I tried.

Hi, your art is beautiful and I wish I had your creativity and talent. However, sine you asked for feedback...your narration is so monotonal, accent is rather thick, and there is rarely a smile, or a joke or a pause from the technicality...all and all the result is a bit "dry" and mechanical, stiff.... I don't know, maybe an editor, and a speaking coach could help? I really hope that your channel will start growing, as it deserves, and can give you the well earned financial reward....
