It's so true, Shibasaki-sensei's voice is like a calming waterfall of happies for me too XD Thank you for watching and for comments, angela :) - Comment Moderator for Watercolor by Shibasaki
Yeah, this is like Gran’pa telling a sleepy kiddo a wonderful adventure as the precious lil’un falls blissfully under the soft spell of the gentle man cooing him to sleep! Love it...maybe learn something by watching his movements too!
Literally just commented yesterday on another one of his videos that these might be more relaxing than Bob Ross. Also, my little kitty hops in my lap to watch him paint too!
I’ve tried watercolor and have been in tears at the result, frustrated and discouraged. Recently, a friend recommended your channel and it has really given me the courage to pick it up again, which is a tremendous feeling for an on again, off again artist. Thank you
I've literally gotten to the point where I throw the damn painting out the bedroom window in frustration. Just keep doing it and the results will show over time!
Thank you so much for taking your time to teach online. Your videos are always so easy to watch and understand ... and it's amazing because I don't speak a word of Japanese ...but soon! Thank you again, I really enjoy your videos :)
Shibasaki-sensei is so happy that you enjoy the videos and that you are learning from them! Please share with us your artworks when you can :) - Comment Moderator for Watercolor by Shibasaki
Sensei, one day I dream to have your level of expertise and passion in subject. Your dedication to your art is admirable and willingness to teach is extremely admirable. I'm very glad I have the opportunity to have been introduced to your channel.
Thank you! Shibasaki-sensei hopes you are learning well :) Share with us your paintings when you can (if you want to :) ) ! - Comment Moderator for Watercolor by Shibasaki
Shibasaki sensei, your choice of colors is amazing! When watching you painting, is just like watching a movie and wondering what the end is like! I have to follow each strokes carefully while wondering how each stroke will develop into a final painting. Sensei’s Every painting is so amazing 😆💕✨👍🏼
I stumbled here while reading about flat brushes and I could never imagine in my life that I would be filled so kuch joy watching a video on round and flat brushes. Arigatou Shibasaki San 🌟
I've mostly used synthetic brushes in my watercolors, and my flat washes always turn out spotty. This has been very helpful for seeing how I can improve. Thank you sir!
This video was very helpful. I love how you encourage your viewers to be more loose and free with their paintings by using larger brushes, it just feels more carefree and fun
Living at a higher elevation means the water dries faster. That's something I've had to take into account with my tools and the flat brush is a favorite; though I've never tried the animal hair brush. It looks smooth as silk. Beautiful work and thank you Shibasaki sensei.
WTF Shibasaki. You just broke my head. You telling all this time I could have been doing a sunset with a whole circle and then just doing a glaze over the top of it?
Hahahah, I hope head is together again and much stronger now! New technique for future awesomeness \o/ Shibasaki-sensei thanks you for your visit! - Comment Moderator for Watercolor by Shibasaki
Well done, once again! I think, it's really helpful that you use the taught techniques in the end of each video to create a painting. Thank you very much for this lesson!
Here is the reason 'why' a flat brush can be used instead of a round brush. Also very interesting to learn a flat wash with a flat brush can be done on a level surface and why a smaller round brush needs the paper to be inclined to avoid brush strokes. :) Excellent as always Sir. Thank you for sharing your knowledge.
I'm at a stressful doctor's appointment right now, watching your videos while I wait. It feels like I'm at home painting with you instead of where I am. Thank you for making videos for us
I have always been puzzled by flat brushes.. until now of course. Fascinating! I love how you do a picture example at the end of your basic tutorials showing how these techniques can be incorporated into creating a painting, it's very helpful! Thank you 🙏 ... I shall now get my chores done quickly so I can have fun trying these techniques out 👩🎨👍
Very informative and relaxing! :D When I just started I really wondered which brush should I use and I just used the first cheap quality nylon flat brush but I struggled a lot. Than I bought nylon round brush that was not on the point for me either. After that I saw Frank Clarks video and bought a big goat hair brush similar that you used. It was effective especially with painting trees and textures but it felt so big and clumsy. Now I mostly use a big natural round brush you. So the thing is :D It's fun to use new brushes every once in a while :)
Thank you for the detailed lesson and the tips! For large washes I use a flat round squirrel brush, I love it because it holds a lot of colour and since it's not rectangular I can use it for smaller areas, too, if I'm careful.
Thank you very much for watching and for comments :) Shibasaki-sensei is happy to receive your kind attention ! - Comment Moderator for Watercolor by Shibasaki
Hello 🇧🇷 from Brazil master Shiba! Very interesting your lesson today. I will try using the flat brush as the same as you did. The end was very cute. 🙋🏻♀️
Hello! Brazil is a beautiful country, thank you for visiting! Shibasaki-sensei is happy that you will try the technique :) Please share with us your results when you can (only if you want to, though! :) ) - Comment Moderator for Watercolor by Shibasaki
@@soniabuenoaffonso8144 If you have your own youtube channel, please share with us any works that you do that you based off Shibasaki-sensei's videos :D Or, if you have an online gallery, somewhere, please link us the url :)
This was such an informative video to watch!! I actually watched your next flat-brush first (#22 I believe), and it was really cool to see you use the technique you demonstrated in that video be applied here when you painted the boat.
Uwaaah that's true! I have different brushes but it's not really efficient in painting wet on wet. I think the biggest lesson I'm learning is to paint without hesitation. I always get uneasy and feel like I need to put details and it ends up looking muddy
I bought a size 16 brush. I think im not confident enough for a 20. But if i get better with size 16. I will go for size 20. 😎 you are my idol shibasaki.
Thank you for the video! I am somewhat new to watercolor, and I often end up fighting with the paint. I see how natural you are able to do it and it inspires me! I've learned a lot! :)
I enjoy very much the pictures you draw at the end of each video. They remind me of HAIKU poems. Can you please show us how to draw bamboo with black ink??? I would like to learn to draw "the four gentlemen" bamboo, chrysanthemum, orchid and plum tree. Do you think is it possible??? Thank you!!!
