Thousands of hours watching wc videos tells me that Louise is probably the best teacher. Straightforward explanations with first rate camera work. Many thanks.

Yes and dedicated hours of editing the content to piece together all the visual information that enhances her explanations and makes it so easy for us to understand exactly what she's talking about! 😊

I think you’re the best watercolor channel on KZread. I think you explain the behaviors of the medium the best. You don’t just show how to do something. You explain the WHY too. And thoroughly show visuals that show each step of what you’re explaining.

Oh my goodness, I don't know why I've not discovered you before - I think I've just watched 5 of your videos in a row and you explain things better than I've ever heard them explained before! And your examples are so helpful! Thank you for sharing your understanding and love of the beautiful art of watercolour ♡

I always thought making blooms was a bad thing....now I know different! Thank you so much for explaining this and the process for intentionally making blooms. Tremendously helpful! ❤

I love to hear you talk you have such a smooth calming voice your paintings are great I love to watch your videos

I really love blooms, but most artists will tell you to avoid them, not show you how to make them! They really do add interest, texture, and even subtle shading. Personally, I think they're one of the most beautiful aspects of watercolors. If I wanted flat colors, I'd have chosen to learn oil or acrylics, after all. (:

Exactly Stephanie! I agree with you 100%. I couldn't have said that better myself. 💜

This is such a great lesson on blooms. The absolute best lesson I have seen put together, explained in perfect detail, I finally understand blooms!! Thank you so much for making this tutorial, this was awesome!! Thank you so much!

absolutely agree.

You create such high quality videos that I feel like a thief coming away with such value. You have the best channel on watercolor that I’ve seen, and I’ve watched dozens of them.

Oh I love watercolor blooms! The shifting and dispersion are actually why I am so fond of this medium!!

Absolutely love blooms. They add such an interesting layer of dimension to my pieces.

Best tip and explanation of blooms ever!

Thanks very much Susan.

This is the best explanation of blooms that I've heard/seen. Thanks!

Blooms add unique textures,love the spontaneous effects you get,with them.😀

I am just getting interested in watercolor; watching videos and trying to learn. These watercolor blooms are magical; I especially like the look of them in the background. Thank you; enjoyed watching you.

Thanks Louise for your video on blooms, how to create them. Now I know to wait for five minutes before dropping in water onto the paint that has lost its sheen. Very helpful video.

I always thought that I ruined my painting when I got blooms,thanks for showing me how beautiful they can be

One of the best explanation. I love that you use blooms in your artwork.

I love this tutorial Louise.. and I love watercolour blooms too! Really nice to see how you’ve used them in your paintings 😍

Wonderful lesson. Finally I know how to control and utilize them. I agree with you - they are lovely and add so much interest when the painter knows what he/she is doing. Thanks!

my gosh as a brand new painter, I just wish I could sit with you and learn. A bit difficult since I'm half a world away, LOL.

It's so lovely to listen to you, you have such a pleasant voice.

This was packed with all the info I was looking for! Finally 👍🏾 thank you. As a beginner explorer of watercolor, I have no idea what I’m doing and this just solved one major question I was struggling with 😊✨

You are such a great inspiration. I keep watching the same over and over when I paint whenever I get stuck if there is some more which i could do. Thank you for these learnings!!

Blown away by the quality of these videos. Including time lapses is so helpful and thoughtful, and you explain concepts very clearly. Thank you!

As a young school art class student I failed terribly wc with holes in my paper. I had no direction, disappointment, I stuck to acrylic which I love. I am determined to give it a new start, 35 years later, I’ve learned so much in just a few if your videos. You are amazing. I’m painting a simple Koi, I am actually doing okay. Glad I found you!

I'm still not a fan of blooms in figurative paintings, but I also still am a big fan of yours. Especially, those roses you showed were exquisitely portrayed oh my!! Absolutely delightful!

Thank you so much! This was the best explanation ever on this! I am relatively new to water coloured and was struggling with the frustration of the blooms... now I know better!

I LOVE your work and tutorials. I'm a beginner and you inspire me to go on. even when it's not working as I had imagined. And a compliment to your voice. Calm and relaxing. It helps to focus. Thanks

Another great informative video. I am learning SO much from you. Thank you!

I finally started my watercolour practice today and ended up with blooms. You have come to the rescue !!!

Thank you again Louise for another stellar video:) I think blooms are beautiful when used correctly in a painting. Your gorgeous paintings have inspired me to use them more often. I agree that it is what makes watercolour so unique and special to use. This is the best explanation on blooms I have ever heard:)

Hi, I’m new to KZread channel and the tutorials I have watched so far have been very informative enhanced by your gentle delivery of information. I love to create blooms and very often use a negative painting approach as well. Al that being said I’m still a novice ! Many thanks

This is the best lesson I've seen on watercolour blooms, thanks!

Thank you for explaining this! I've seen other videos that mention them and show them, but none have really explained them.

You are very inspiring, I love following your tutorials! Thank you for this water bloom video, so interesting!

Thank you, that was awesome.

I’m definitely going to purposely add some blooms! I love the texture and interest it adds ☺️

Love your tutorials. They are so informative and helpful especially for beginners. Blooms really add to the painting and give it character.

Wonderful tutorial Louise, you explain & demonstrate everything so understandably. I adore your rose paintings they are beautiful.

Wow!!! This is amazing!!! No, you are amazing, truly! I feel so inspirated. WOW!

Your paintings are beautiful, just the style I have been wanting to create myself (but failing miserably). Your instruction is perfect, just what I needed! Thank you!

Your lovely ! And i love you blooms ! Learned a lot in this video. Thank you x

Hello Louise. Just noticed that this video is two years old. It wouldn't matter to me as your info will still be relevant no matter how old they are. Love your instructions. I'll keep your videos long term.

I love watercolor blooms! ☺️

Love the Blooms

Thank you!

Beautiful ! Very nice work

How relaxing your sound is😴

Thank you very much for the great explanation on blooms! Your paintings are beautiful! I will now look forward to working with the blooms! =)

I love blooms but now I understand how to control them. Asa a patreon member your teachers are more in depth so thank you for that, I appreciate you Louise 🙏🏽🙋🏻‍♀️👍🏽Mia

Love your work...yes I love to use blooms at times

Hi Louise! Fantastic discussion of watercolor blooms. I am like you where I want them in certain situations, and not in others. You did a wonderful and clear explanation of how to create them an how to eliminate them when not wanted. I like your clean brush method- I have seen others use a scrap rag to lift, but I think your clean brush method is the way to go. Wonderful explanation of controlling the wetness of the paper. Your fox, Wood Duck, Dalmation, and rose are spectacular, Louise!

Thank you so much! I also love blooms but until this video I didn't know the exact timing when they occur the best (my paper is cheap so it's sometimes challenging as it warps a lot).

love all the info

genial, muchas gracias!

You make me feel calm. Thank you 😊

Wow this has been so helpful You explained it. You rock

I was always told that blooms are bad & I used to chuck my paintings which had too many blooms. Now, you have given us good tips to embrace blooms. You’re a lovely clear concise teacher.

Fantastic tutorial Louise. Very helpful. Thank you for sharing:-) Marion ps I always thought that blooms were something to be avoided

Fab video Louise, as usual. I love blooms and as a newby to watercolour they are the only thing I seem to be good at!!! I'm blessed 😂. I'll get the hang of watercolour eventually!! Thanks again for sharing 🤗

I love seeing examples of your existing work in your tutorials, it's very helpful to see a link between cause and effect. Your explanation of how these are caused is perfect. I now know what I was doing wrong. Thank you.

Thank you so much! Very useful explanations!
