Thanks you, Nancy. More is coming.

Great tutorial especially love the colour mixing aspect of the tutorial. Really loving the folk art themes I have my fingers crossed you will continue to do more. I don’t see anyone else doing this theme as well as you. Thanks so much for sharing.

@shanacirce2667 Год назад

As always, Thanks for watching Carol! I’m living this style and will definitely be playing with and expanding upon it.

@chellepitts6677 Год назад

This was AWESOME…and I absolutely loved the neutral colors blended from complimentary and secondary colors….

So glad I came upon your RU-vid site. I like making homemade cards for friends and family -- not event related, but just to let them know I'm thinking of them. Your posts look like a great way to exercise my creative side. Thanks again!

Makes me want to take a walk there and have the moon soak into my rattled brain - and perhaps calm me down some. Your painting makes me feel soothed. I thank you for that. 💐

Thank you, Bhorn. I’m so glad you like it. Thank you for watching. 😀

@samteawater7444 Год назад

What a beautiful painting! Thank you for this tutorial. I often paint on cellulose paper, and a technique I learned for making washes is very helpful for not getting drying/harsh lines. It’s called “keeping a bead”. Works best on slightly tilted paper. It means to dip the brush into the paint for every stroke so that a small ridge of wet paint collects on the lower part of the stroke. Then with your next stroke you pick up that collected paint and form a new ‘bead’ on the bottom of the stroke. That bead prevents lines from forming, even with staining colours like phthalos on cellulose paper. You have to keep going of course but it gives that bit of extra time.

I learned so much from this video. I’m a RU-vid-taught watercolorist. Mixing complementary colors to desaturate is something I never really got. Nor did I know how fantastic desaturated colors look together. Thank you so much!

@shanacirce2667 Год назад

I’m so glad you were able to get some takeaways from the complementary color mixing. Color mixing is magic to me and I love how much you can do if you know just the basic rules.

Thank you so much for this video. As I have been struggling with losing more and more of my artistic soul, I finally hit the point where I am not okay with it and starting to figure out how to get back to the rhythm of pushing myself artistically but also with compassion and understanding of myself as an artist. Thank you again for bringing this video to us and sharing your insights. All the best and all the love sent your way :)

@shanacirce2667 Год назад

Take it one day at a time and be kind to yourself. You will find the flow again.

@shanacirce2667 Год назад

Thank you, Ann. I am just discovering and uncovering my love for Folk Art and have been looking at a lot it and letting inspire my work. I don’t have any book recommendations as of yet, but I will keep an eye out.

@sandwillow63 Год назад

Enjoyed the color lesson. Someone may disagree with me but I had poor results on hot press 100% cotton. I’m going to try again on cold press. I’m beginning to think hot press is best suited for markers.

@shanacirce2667 Год назад

Hot press is a much smoother surface and can be great for illustration and fine detail watercolor. I am not a fan of it for my style of painting but there are many who love it for their style.

@shanacirce2667 Год назад

Thanks for watching. Try Gamboge yellow and a touch of alizarin crimson. It will get you close.

@shanacirce2667 Год назад

Or any warm orange will do if you are just using it to mix complementary colors.

@bobbiegraham7729 Год назад

Love these ! Pretty sure Quin. Gold would be considered yellow, you stated orange. Actually I don't care what color you used, lave the outcome.

@Angie-pl3uw Год назад

I am enjoying your folk art so much. Thank you. I have a question: do the hills have their own shadows, or are they not included in this type of painting? I love the way it looks like this. Also, are primitives considered folk art? Sorry for asking so many questions!!

@shanacirce2667 Год назад

Hi Angie. Great questions. First, I will say that these are Folk Art inspired pieces. I’m looking at a lot of Folk Art to inform or inspire my pieces. There are also not a lot of hard and fast rules in Folk Art. There are definitely themes and a general look but traditional Folk Art is produced by self taught artists so they often made up their own rules. I’m still learning a lot about the genre. You could definitely add shadows from the hills themselves. I think that could look great. And yes, I do believe primitives are considered within the larger umbrella of Folk Art.

@Angie-pl3uw Год назад

@@shanacirce2667 Thanks, Shana, for your prompt answer to my questions. I love your art as it is, I just was curious about shadows. I am interested in primitives as I am lucky to have inherited a quite beautiful and expensive primitive that my husband and I adore. I hope you continue exploring this genre. I have the title of a book that I believe you’d enjoy. It’s not at hand but will send it to you a later. Thank you again

Color mixing for me ended up with all the wrong colors. 😢I am having a really hard time with gradient washes.

@shanacirce2667 2 месяца назад

I’m so sorry Margaret. Keep practicing. Gradients are tricky. I recommend the doing little squares or rectangles to practice, over and over until it feels more comfortable.

@JimJudoka Год назад

what's the thing that you used to roll away the drawn lines? is it some type of eraser?

@shanacirce2667 Год назад

Hi there! That’s called a kneaded eraser. You can get them from any art store or online. They are excellent for erasing lines on watercolor paper.

@Merzui-kg8ds Год назад

I'll chime in with a rookie question. I have (cheapish) pan watercolors. I do not quite know how to mix colors when I am loading my brush out of a pan. Seems trickier than having tube watercolors. Am I confused?

@shanacirce2667 Год назад

Do you have another surface to mix your colors on? Even if you don’t have a separate palette sometimes you can mix in the lid of your pan set or you can use a ceramic plate from your kitchen. Activate your paints with water and mix them on the palette( plate ) before you use them.

@barblarson5354 5 месяцев назад

@rondabergeron4414 Год назад

I like your color mixing but I'm not sure if I would label this true folk art. More block painting I think. Good job though.

Thanks for the feedback, Amy. 😀. If it’s too slow for you, and you want to speed up the tutorial, you can mute the sound and watch it in 2x speed. I hope that helps. Then it will be a little zippier for you or others who want to move more quickly. 🏃‍♀️ Thanks for watching!
