I learned a tip about drawing out your flowers or objects before painting. Instead of using pencil and having it show or dealing with erasing, you could use a watercolor pencil very lightly that will blend with your painting when wet. 🙃

Oh, I was going to ask about using a pencil. When the artist described erasing the pencil marks, does she mean after the paint has dried? I just rec'd a set of watercolor markers & watercolor pad as a gift and this is my first tutorial into how to use this medium. It's beautiful. Thank you for you advice and thank you TanyaLeintz for this engaging and informative tutorial. You're very talented.🌺🎨🌻💧🌸🖼🖌

@@isabellind1292 yes, they mean after the paint has dried. But if you paint over your pencil , it won’t erase nicely. If you have watercolor pencils, use those instead. Then you won’t have to erase at all. It will blend in with your watercolor. I hope this helps. 😊

2 months post your post. Hope that you are doing well and stuff is coming back. I did not have a stroke but a rather big brain 'shake up" where I lost a lot of my stuff. It's all there I just had to relax & not overthink sh*t. You got this. (Painting/drawing had to come from my shoulder/elbow using a brush for quite a while. Not too large. But you've probably zoomed past that already.)
Thanks, after 12 hours of going through vids for this exact topic your not only the most coherent for beginners, but the most honest about how things don't always work the way you expect and to experiment with what you're using

Now I have more ideas to use with my markers and I will be turning my paper more. At almost 76 years old, I can use all of the tips and techniques that I can get. You are encouraging. Thank you.

I've been gifted 5 different types of watercolor pencil crayons but I don't think I've ever used them the way another of your v8ds explained them to me. I still suck lol but getting more confident with the pencils at least, if I remember ill let you know how I do with the brush pens 🥰🥰🥰

So happy to find this tutorial!!! Thank you! I have this set and I have found ice blue is a wonderful color for glass, as in replicating a glass vase. Artesia also sells four packs of one color if you go through specific colors a lot. I bought the 96 set and I absolutely love mine. Fyi.... If you take the paint marker back over a wet surface the paint marker actually absorbs the water and the color leaves the brush nib. Then you have to wait for the color to return. You can blend colors but it's very difficult to add color to a surface that is too wet.
