Hi Jenna, I am 81 and a beginner. I am all alone now, so have time for a hobby. I really enjoy your tutorials! They are so helpful and I am learning so much from them. Looking forward to your new book in 2023.Thanks so much. Karen

Hi Karen! I’m an empty nester and alone now too. I’m excited to learn and admire you learning something new at 81!! You go girl friend! We got this!!! 🥰

@@christinemcclester2695 Hey ladies, I am not quite an empty nester (he's 18, but I don't see him spreading his wings for a while, lol) but I do get to spend a lot of time working on my watercolors! Jenna is such a good teacher and an amazing artist. We will all learn together! 💖 💖 for you both.

@_roshi Год назад

you are a rock star! my grandmother took up painting a few years ago and BOY she was very much not artistic. it was hard for the family, because we wanted to be honest, but also not break her heart, but for a while they were... just really not pleasant to look at. BUT!! she kept at it, and has been painting consistently for a while and nowadays, her paintings are incredible. you would think she has been painting her entire life! she is super inspiring to me, and I just wanted to share because it is true that it's "never too late". I am taking it up now in my 30's, and it's very difficult (currently still struggling with water to paint ratios). please keep going, and if you ever get down, come back to this video for the basics and some inspiring words! ❤

Your tutorials are fantastic. I’m accessing them in the north west of England. I’m a complete beginner and as a disabled seventy year old I’m finding your instruction just great. No waffling. Thanks.

@utterlynice1 2 года назад

Never took any classes and don’t have any training. Just saw something I liked and bought some cheap watercolors and started painting. Need to learn so thank you!!

@eugeniaefendy 14 дней назад

Same here. But I invested in artist grade watercolors, brushes, and 100% cotton paper. It does the magic and improves my skills A LOT because of the quality rather than using the cheap ones (which I used to have too).

@carlycharlesworth1497 2 года назад

Hi Jenna, I ordered your book Everyday Watercolor: Learn to Paint Watercolor in 30 Days today and I'm really looking forward to doing the exercises and painting techniques from it. I am so excited! Thank you for helping me get over my fear of watercolour painting. I have everything except confidence, which I hope your 30 day course in the book will help me to gain. Thanks again for all you do. God bless you and your family.

Our handwriting changes every few years, and I wonder if the same thing happens with our painting style . I can definitely notice that your painting “handwriting” has shifted since you started changing up your supplies. Your strokes are more like twigs as you poke at the paper. It looks like you’re re-discovering your love for painting!

Jenna, I sure did enjoy this tutorial. I miracles with the pot turned out so nicely! And my bubbles weren’t too bad themselves. I mainly enjoyed the very simplistic water in the mountain in the sky in magenta painting. Thank you so much for your time and your generosity.💞🙏🏼💜

@nishafoerstner1473 Год назад

Just found you. Water colour was never on my radar. I ink sketch but started adding hits of colour with water colour paints. Then, I found this tutorial and, well, simply amazing and inspiring! I will probably do more of your youtube videos as I am a newbie to the art world. Thank you for making these tutorials. Inspired!

@tarotbysemaj2424 Год назад

Great insight and information. Fun seeing how fast you made the different paintings. I guess PLAY is important when you get into watercolor. It's all a brilliant learning adventure. Such great teaching and insight. Thank you for making us all better at becoming watercolor artists. Your sharing is so appreciated.✨🧡✨

Love this video! It's perfect to recape if you've had time away from painting with watercolor. I tried other mediums out but im back to watercolor as it feels magical to me.

Your video has wanting to bring out my art stuff and try the geometric abstract style, which I’ve always been afraid to attempt. The bubbles will be a good starting point Thank you so much

The tea to butter video made something click for me, and started me into painting after years of no 2d art. It has become part of my (near) daily practice...like scales for painting. But the last few days, when I say it in my head...I keep going "tea, coffee,milk,cream,sugar..." LOL. We do not even eat sugar. NOT sure why my brain is doing this... maybe it wants cookies???

@koskey06 Год назад

I would say a "simple" sky blend from blue to yellow to a reddish, let dry...then a dark for some mountains is a "easy" first painting. Teach you how wet into wet blending works, etc. Then try others like flowers, more detailed land scapes...etc

@user-zn4oh6vc8q 5 месяцев назад

hello . a quick question . as a raw beginner , could you please say" Starting with a wet surface "or starting with a Dry Surface . It was not really clear as I tried to follow this lesson even after I played it many times . Half way through trying to plaint along with you was too late .
