Lovely and imaginative. Thank you.

Hi Linda. I've just discovered your channel and tutorials. I loved this technique and can't wait to give it a try! I have seen other artists use the tissue in abstract work, but not like you have done this, so I'm very excited! So pleased I have found your art, thanks for sharing! Best wishes Robyn

Am so looking forward to more of these Have prepared a couple of pieces that are ready to experiment on Hope you are not waiting for viruses to be gone

Wonderful work ,

To my surprise, painting in the raven seemed almost too easily done - and it defines the scale of the trees perfectly. Beautiful!

Thank you Linda, I am so inspired by your art...the trees are so natural and eerie looking...love the colours too...I am ready to experiment now .❤

I get frost from the white oil pastel. Beautiful!

I love love love your work beautiful

The monochromatic one is my favorite, it has great depth and the foreground looks exactly like the forest floor with fallen branches everywhere.

So unique and wonderful color! Thank you for this tutorial:)

Thank you for sharing such a beautiful watercolor painting ❤️

Very pretty! I love this technique 😍 Can't wait to try it. Thanks for sharing Linda.

I absolutely love this! Thanks so much for sharing how to do it!

Absolutely fascinating and gorgeous. I shall definitely try these techniques. Thank you so much for sharing your talents

Almost looks like a frosty scene with the white pastel!

Lovely as always ,make it look so easy xxx

Love this so much 💖

Wow, it's so cool! I have to try!

Very interesting!! It's a fantastic, different way of generating eye striking texture. - WHAT A WONDERFUL COMBINATION OF ART!!

Hi Linda, I’m new to your channel and absolutely love the these two videos. I use cling film a lot in my paintings but have never used tissue. I’ll make this my next project. Thank you for sharing and delivering this knowledge so clearly. Marion

Fabulous! I'm very interested in your techniques with experimental watercolors. Will be following your work.

Wow! I just found your website. Your paintings are amazing. I haven't been able to paint for a while, can't wait to try your style.

fantastic!

LINDA!!! I will remark on part 1 of this incredible technique in watercolor. This is gorgeous!! I can't express adequately how taken I am with your design, and materials. I have a white oil pastel pencil. I hope if I use the side of the pencil, it'll be safe as to not tear the paper. You are AMAZING!! 😘👍💖🎨

That is absolutely stunning. What a visual feast. Thank you for sharing.

I love this! I create mandalas with this type of technique, not the tissue paper so much but the dripping method interested in your classes, but did get your email,

Beautiful textures indeed! I want to try this gesso/tissue paper technique (and mess about with watercolors in general) to possibly enhance my airbrushing....especially backgrounds. Textures are something I've always striven to achieve as an airbrush artist to offset the typical smoothness of airbrushing. I already have some Arches 300 gm. hot-press, need gesso & tissue--I have no real watercolors but my airbrush paints are all water-based with the finest ground pigments, yes I know they're not quite the same but will have to do for now. I also use a lot of pearl/micas and metal leaf in my work--ever seen gold leaf used on a leather jacket? Thank you very much for showing us your technique here--it gives me much food for thought! Gotta finish my X-mas cards first, then I can experiment with this.

Oh dear, wish I hadn't wasted my DS paints on this. Will try again with cheaper paints till I get the hang of it.

Very informative, would like to see the method of laying down the tissue paper for texture.

I'd love to take a workshop with you!

Fabulous. I'm in love with your work

How do you finish the paintings with the tissue paper on them. That's another lesson. I tried this one and I love my results, thank you so much.

Enjoyed watching! I'm still a new and learning artist, if you don't mind I have a couple of questions: 1) if you're painting multiple layers of gesso (and tissue paper) over the canvas, what difference does it make if it's WC paper vs a regular canvas? (asking partially for the technical curiosity, and partially because WC paper can be so expensive and if it doesn't impact the final painting I might try this with something else XD). 2) Can you use something else like pastel or charcoal for the final step of bringing out the texture from the tissue paper, or is there something special about the oil pastel that makes it ideal for this? Thank you so much in advance, I'm enjoying learning from you through these videos!

I love this! Is there a video of how you did the background?

I love this type of painting- I assume you dont use gesso on top of watercolor paper but rather on canvas- is that right? Nancy

Absolutely amazing! I certainly would love to join one of your workshops. Where are you based?

Unfortunately Moonstone is fugitive. Can you recommend an alternative please?

I love this technique. But I was wondering if I could use 140 lb watercolor paper. I believe you called for 300 lb watercolor paper. And for a beginner if I was to purchase 300 lb watercolor paper or what would you recommend?

I enjoyed your techniques and I am going to try it. Just one thought I would appreciate it if you had listed your Colors. As it is I need to re-watch and take notes on what colors you used. Thank you again for beautiful work.

Its my understanding that pH levels play a role in how well the pigment keeps over time. Will the WC paper, the gesso and oil pastel alter the pH in a negitive way for the watercolor?

How to “finish”, protect, before displaying? …spray? Clear coat?

Really love your work, but I feel that there were too many ads to finish the video. There is a possibility that this is why you got so few people subscribed to your channel.
