Lois' Watercolour for beginners, a simple hake & flat brush seascape, beach landscape watercolor 

Your voice is so soothing and your teaching is awesome, thank you.

Thank you, Lois. Beautiful painting and you are such an amazing teacher.

Love that you show the pallet to see the strength of your mixtures. So helpful. Thank you.

Love it!!!! Thank you for all the explanations during tutorial. You're a great teacher❤🤗

Thank you so much Lois, I’m a beginner and your lesson is beautiful. I’ve learned a lot from you, thanks so much. Your voice is so calming thank you.

My fav gal on loose landscape paintings (and without spending hours each time!) Big thank you ; you're one whom i keep painting and not giving up on myself.

At last, Lois I have been waiting for your style of painting for years, so happy to be following you and am proud of my achievements. Thank you.

Thank you Lois. Love these tutorials.

Enjoyed watching this! I like the smooth gradient between the sky and horizon line.

Hi Lois, so glad I found your tutorials.You are a wonderful instructor you make it fun not scary. I need to buy a hake brush.Gonna give it a try. Thankyou

Just starting watercolor...you are sooo inspiring.... keeping me excited to learn, thanks 😊

Thank you, Lois. This is so soft and relaxing. I don't live by the sea but I can certainly "smell" it from here! One can do so much with very few materials--a couple of brushes and fewer than half a dozen colours! :)

the ocean thing really intimidated me but i gave it a go and mine looks okay - i learned a lot. I'm being challenged by making things too balanced like with the rocks but again it's all an experiment for me with this and the hake brush etc. Thank you for detailed and clear directions!!

You never cease to amaze me!! Lovely!!

I’m a novice water color painter who just found you! I want to thank you for being such a generous teacher who speaks little of herself but rather concentrates on just what a new painter needs to know - very clear, well paced explanations to go with the same type illustrations. Although I don’t have a 3/4 flat brush, I do have a large Hake and hope to make do with what I have for the beach scene - can’t wait to start.

I like this a lot. Looks right all round. Well done and ty for the inspiration.

Hi Miss Davidson, I love the Sky colour And the waves, You always perfect the painting in a simple way, Just a lovely tutorial, Fullstop. Thank you so much for your time. Bob.

I love watching your videos and learning, your style is so relaxing and friendly :)

Hello Lois, I found your video by chance and I am so glad I did. I have so much trouble painting seas - or any water really - but you make it sound so achievable. I love your laid back style and friendly voice, you have a new fan!

Really enjoyed watching you...as if Im really at the beach!!! Love your technique.

Wow this is beautiful..I'm going to try this, thank you so much for teaching this💐💐💐💐💐💐💐💐

Lovely painting. 😊 Thank you.

Thank you for the tips..beautiful seascape.

Simple and beautiful!!!

I love your work! Going to give this a try

Thanks Lois for a great video, as always, I've been struggling with a seascape so this is very timely. As someone who has only recently discovered the Hake I would like to thank you for your online vieos.

Just joined your channel, I find your painting abilities quite impressive!!. I have watched two ocean scenes and are both beautiful, can’t wait to watch other paintings of yours especially landscapes and more ocean scenes. Thank you 🙏🏼 ❤

Beautiful! Thank you!

Thanks…. There’s so much to learn from your videos……

Thanks so much for this one, so inspiring …

Thank you so much Lois for sharing your experiences. tips and knowledge with watercolor painting. I love this painting along with the video.. as a novice watercolourist it's given me a great starting point with seascapes. really appreciated Lois.... kind regards Dave 👍

Great demo, I’m an acrylic artist and going to give watercolor a go, less is more. I’ll try out your demos. Rich Banks California

You are a great teacher

A lovely and peaceful painting, Lois, thank you so much for sharing with us!

I love watching you paint Lois. You are so inspiring to me 🥰

I love your painting Louis. Very simple and beautiful. Your skies very attractive. I follow you from Togo (west Africa) . i think i will by this brush and try itThank's

Very nice work.

Woo good watercolor painting 👍...succes

Так красиво! Благодарю за видио!

Thanks, it helped a lot!

Beautiful....

awesome art 😄😍🤩

UGHHHH you make it look so easy! I tried doing this with gouache but it was definitely a flop. But a really cool video!

Must try watercolour I watching you to relax

thanks so much

Beautiful! I have those brushes. Haven’t used them yet.

Brilliant

Good work, interesting style. Maybe include a list of used brushes för each painting?

Great tutorial! I've noticed quite a few watercolor artists use fresh paint from the tube. For those of us who have palettes with dried paint in the pans, is there a method to reactivate it (ex. on a mixing palette) without making the results watery? Or would you recommend just using fresh-from-the-tube all the time? Thank you!

I have watched several of your seascapes and will watch them again before I attempt one for myself. Interesting to hear I can add some white gouache. I am afraid my paper will be too creamy rather than white for waves, spray.

Thank you, I thoroughly enjoyed painting along with you, really happy with my first attempt at watercolour scenes!

Szépen, tetszik nekem :)

Love this technique, does anyone know what pencil is best for the sketch Lois does at beginning?

thank you

Love this, I’m definitely going to try it. I’m just curious about what you do about the ‘Arches’ brand name in the corner when you do a painting for sale. Do you avoid using that part of the paper?

Hi, Lois. I see that you use Saunders paper pretty regularly in your videos. Are there advantages over Arches paper? I use Arches but never tried Saunders. Thank you and thank you for your inspiration.

Wonderful! You always make it look so achievable. I have discovered that it’s not. ☺️ Which Facebook group are you referring to? Could you post a link - then I can show you my spectacularly failed attempts at one of your previous videos! 🙄

👌🙏

I have just found you!! I’m a Brit in USA. I’m trying to find the second tip you have, you are the only teacher I have heard who said, if the water is on the paper, then way less in the paint. Please help me.

I notice from watching your demos that you use tube colour rather than block paint. I have lots of the block and no tubes so therefore reluctant to buy tubes. Is there a big disadvantage using my palette paints?

Hey Lois what size paper do you use

What is a hockey brush? I'm in the US and can't find it on Google. I love this painting and want to use what you use!

Pena todo inglés. Español por favor 👍👍👍🇪🇸🇪🇸🇪🇸gracias

Hi. Do you share your reference photos?

Fantastico trabajo!!! Solo que es muy molesto que continuamente este el recipiente de mezclas en primer plano…
