Soooo beautiful! What an inspiration. I wish I could make Opera Pink look like that!

I LOVE this. It's great to see you using the straw! I love the straw! Straw and negative painting! You are my new fav!

Thanks for your comments Suzanne. I do draw a lot, in my sketchbooks, but not always on my watercolor paper. Many times I will do a few sketchy lines to ‘map out’ my plan before I paint, but not an intricate drawing. Having said that, in the case of when I paint structures like buildings, or when I do an animal or figure, I will have a drawing in place on my watercolor paper. If it’s an intricate drawing I might do it first on a large piece of cartridge paper and then transfer it to my watercolor paper, but that’s rare..I have to admit I mostly freehand draw . I totally believe we should draw everyday, among other things, it helps us understand form which is paramount to an artist.

I enjoy viewing your application of pigments in a spontaneous, intuitive manner. I am thankful I found your You Tube videos, and hope you continue sharing your artistic creations. 12:56

Just stumbled on to your watercolor tutorial… I’ve been watercolor painting for about two years with many different instructors! In every case, I’ve not been happy with my result as I do want to loosen my look. YOUR painting style is amazing and inspiring and I’m a new huge fan and will be hoping to benefit from your tutorials! THANK you… my instructor tells me that sometimes you have to accept who you are as a painter, but I’m not convinced that I cannot learn to paint loosely!❤ 12:56

That’s gorgeous! It requires a lot of practice to achieve your level but it’s totally worth it. I haven’t got enough words to thank you for sharing your fantastic technique with us🙏🏻💖🌷

I absolutely LOVE this and can't wait to give your techniques a go. I learn something new with each tutorial you post. I have had no luck in using my scrubber brush in the past.

That’s wonderful that you are getting something from each of my videos Klara.. that’s very gratifying for me. I use my scrubber which I wet, but it’s on dry paper. I pre wet the area I want to lift a little, wait till the paper absorbs the moisture, then start scrubbing and blotting. I hope that helps. And thank you for your comment.

Klara Hufnagel Yes, definitely wait until the paper is dry, or it will damage the paper. Some colors lift more easily than others, and some papers lift more easily. Bockingford paper, sold by Dick Blick and available on Amazon, is a paper that allows for easy lifting, although I’m not crazy about the texture of the paper.
