Happy Saturday! This week I received a box with samples of my very first watercolor book! Let's unbox and do the first flip through together!! You can pre-order my new watercolor book here and claim your freebies until Dec 27th, 2020: nofailwatercolor.com Don't forget to claim your freebies if you have already preordered it!
I just pre-ordered it! Can’t wait because I’m go to start teaching art for kids at a school and one unit of my lessons is learning about watercolor! So this book is the perfect study handbook for the kids to look at and observe to get inspiration!
I wrote a novel over the pandemic too but I’m not ready to look for a publisher yet. It’s still being worked on! I’m amazed you wrote and edited and published so fast!
Yeah, I found the publisher in 2019 and we started working on things! It's definitely different than doing everything on your own because there are so many people involved! Maybe you can already pitch your idea to publishers if you want to go the traditional route! They might have great suggestions on how to make it even better for readers that you had no idea about!
Is it possible to claim the freebies when I preorder the book at my local bookstore? There I don‘t get a printed confirmation I could load up on your website.. in German lockdown I‘d prefer to support local stores as long as I can and stores are allowed to offer services 🙂 Thanks for your answer :) And of course congrats to your finished book 😊
ALL I CAN SAY IS: YOU ARE GREAT YOU ARE WONDERFUL YOU ARE INSPIRING YOU ARE CREATIVE YOU ARE THE BEST ARTIST IN THE WORLD *THANKS FOR INSPIRING ME AND TEACHING ME THE BEST WAY TO BE A GOOD ARTIST* *YOUR VOICE IS SO SWEET AND YOUR SMILE IS SO WARM. I LOVE YOUR AMAZING VIDEOS* :) :) ;)
Can you please do a review between Paul Ruben and Schminke sets? They look very similar and I haven't seen any comparisons so i'm so curious! I can't get Schminke here :(
You are the best Mako!! I'm very glad to hear that the book is done! You're a great teacher and motivator and you are the person who got me into using watercolors! ❤️
Wow Mako ❤️❤️ Your videos are just superb....👍🏻I have learnt many things from you ....You are a very good teacher as i learnt many things from you and you paint really great 👍🏻 You are cutee too...Really ❤️
Potential or talent, they're usefully design for gouache paintings. Training is all that matters. Feeling like that Pauline Mendoza's new picture is amazing! Designed by Pauline Mendoza, she has to be created and decorative every time I used the new metallic watercolors. Lesven is approved. But Lesven Silveira doesn't like that watch them, Pauline Mendoza is going to be heartbreak. The Amazing Race is arrived what I have is a season premiere as very well. Take a freakin break from artwork.

I just got my copy, and I really love it. It's so well explained, so I believe it will help people that have never hold a brush, to get started. :D Thank you so much for this awesome book.
You've been a great inspiration since day one of watching your videos. I've been a long time subscriber. And I really appreciate you and your new book.
Hi, your videos have been so super helpful, I’ve just started with watercolour last month and I’ve watched so many videos, and your words and tone has been very calming and easy listening. The beginner ideas and techniques have been awesome. And your words on comparing ourselves to others (like I do often) and how to just improve on ourselves has been so handy to hear again. As you say “you’ve probably heard this time and time again” it’s so good to hear it again. Haha. I’ve just ordered your book and can’t wait to get into it. Thanks again for your work and I’ve got many more videos to get through.

Yay! My copy arrived today. I pre-ordered and Amazon is on the ball :) I am only a few months in to watercolor, but you have taught me so much already. Most of all, you are so motivational and inspiring. You have a truly good heart, and it shows. That means everything. Beautiful book!!!!!!! I'm so excited about sitting down with it and digging in 💕 Thank you for everything.
So SO excited and happy for you!! You were the 1st person I watched when i decided to learn watercolors years ago! You have taught me so much over the years and I'm still learning! I'm in the "gap" so I did stop for awhile because I just wasn't happy with my paintings but I'm ready to start again and I try to sketch/draw daily( weather its 5 min to 1 hour) with some watercoloring thrown in and happy to say its making me happy again! I can't wait to get your book I'm sure it will help me continue in my growth with watercolors! Youv'e come along way, I'm so proud of you!! TY for pushing through it and making the book!! Bless you!! XO
Congratulations, what an achievement! I will buy the book immediately. I completely agree to what you say, as I have also written a book (a victorian knitting journey), and I also learnt while doing, because I had no idea beforehand! Enjoy this moment, it's so special to receive one's own first book!!
Hi Mako, I bought the book and have already done some painting based on your teachings. I find there are great exercises! Greetings from Berlin Germany 🤗👍♥️
Congratulations Mako!! I cannot wait to get it and learn from it. You've already taught me so much, and because of you, I am learning with so much inspiration set by you. Thank you so much and I hope you sell millions of copies!!
I never post any comments but was so compelled to say this book rocks!!!! The cover is so soft and velvety, the images are bright in high res and the content is so easy to follow. Thank you! People go buy this book ASAP👍🏽
Hi Mako! If you are reading this! I just wanted to say I love your videos so much! they have honestly helped me make the best paintings I did! If you can answer this, I've been doing watercolor for some years and I want to start gouache :)) do you recommend any specific paints and any tips on gouache?
uh hi mako! I am your newest sub and if you dont mind I have a question- i noticed you ALWAYS wear the same shirt, why? it just kinda triggered me, sorry.
I've never commented in your channel before but I've been following you for a while now. For some reason, I feel happy for you that I got a bit teary eyed as well. I can feel your genuineness. Well done you.♥️
Mako I have a big request please the request is that please give a review on marie's oil paint and please tell me how to paint with them tutorial I am watercolor kind of person but,someone gifted me that so I said that I must use them because she have gifted me that with love so that's my request please accept it please 🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺!!!!!!!!!
I missed your online workshop so I bought your book… I love it! I love and appreciate the way you teach in the book and in you videos. You are a great teacher, thank you for writing this.
I've just bought the Kindle edition and can highly recommend it. Well written, easy to follow and you can enlarge all the images. Perfect for reading on a tablet.
Hello can you review the Superior watercolor not sure they have it on other countries. It's very good and it's price was half the price of Koi. Though they have the same design.
