    A mixed media watercolour artist is rare. As a mixed media artist who loves texture and who has dabbled with watercolour I found this video exciting! Thank you so much for sharing. 😀

    After watching this video of yours in full, I am still painting with the traditional method, or in other words, the simpler method. The enlightenment you gave me is that when I start painting, I can use more of your methods. There will be more uncertainty in this way, so that the picture can change from a simple brushstroke effect to a more picture quality.

    Hi Jean, from NY. When I see your videos on KZread I’m always blown away and inspired. I call you the granulation lady because I think you’ve mastered the art of working with granulation

    I had fun utilizing your ideas with my kids today. Something neat we discovered: since I didn’t have a spray bottle at hand with water, I substituted with spray bottle of hypochlorous acid that also contained saline. Interesting results after my son saturated and lightly sprayed sections of his watercolor with it and it had dried. It created large and small blooms.

    Thank you for all these great tips Jean. New sub from UK. Love the glass pen, must get one of those for sure. Had a smile re the bottle that makes droplets. I still haven't found one, and must have filled a whole recycling bin with unsuccessful purchases.😬

    Some great ideas that I will definitely try. I recently bought some stencil brushes and find that I like them for spattering better than a toothbrush. And the first time I used cling wrap (after watching one of your videos) I was blown away by the incredible results I got! Thanks for all your wonderful tips.
