In this video, I dove into some intuitive painting, aiming for that gritty urban aesthetic that's always intrigued me. I used Kuretake Gansai Tambi Watercolors and Derwent XL Charcoal, along with a few splashes of acrylic paint to add pops of color. The result? Six mini abstract samplers that I think turned out pretty cool. Join me in this laid-back art tutorial where I'll walk you through the process, sharing some tricks and techniques I picked up along the way. It's all about embracing the raw, urban vibes and letting your creativity flow.

Ah Denise, when you mentioned your grandmother's porch I went straight to my grandma's garden! There was an old rusty air-raid shelter at the bottom of the garden, full of old junk, cobwebs with giant spiders and lots of stuff we weren't to play with but of course found fascinating. I can smell the honeysuckle still, and hear the bees. I'm 71 now and last saw gran when I was 17, so it's been a while. Thanks for that reminder Denise, ❤ from Scotland 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 - and thanks for your lovely art and conversation too, I really enjoy and appreciate both.

Omg the green gold and the ocher with that dark brown charcoal are soo good together!! My favourite modified primary colours are greenish blue and fluo. pink with yellow ocher or a yellow iron oxide; the fluo pink with the ocher makes the most satisfying shade of brilliant orange and now I want to give it a go with green gold to see what happens. I wanted to shout at you when you were trying to get splatters with your round brush!! I looooove my little fan brush for making splatters, it gives me a really lovely spread of little dots without having to really try. Thanks for your video, can’t wait to try out that paper, it looks like it’s worth the investment. Cheers!! 💖💫

I never thought about those white porch bricks. My grandparents had them but painted theirs beige. When I saw today's thumbnail I screeched with omg look at those colors. When you spattered florescent pink i doubted but after you cut them up, wow they are all really great pieces of art. Now that Halloween is over, its back to get my room organized and get out my supplies. I plan on a art room sit in, lol.
