This is the best explanation of glazing I have ever heard! Thank you for demonstrating this technique and explaining the layering process, this is exactly what I need to fully understand what colors to use on the first layer and why!
Your videos are just wonderful, and your descriptions are thorough and clear. I absolutely love (and look forward to) your bloopers every time. I literally laugh out loud at your sense of humor. Kudos. Your watercolors are just lovely.
Thank you Louise! You have been a great influence in my watercolor journey! It is so generous of you to share your skills with everyone and I love your paintings!
Thank you for this video, it has been so helpful! I am new to watercolor painting and have been struggling with this. I’ve read several books and have been looking online and nowhere was the term glazing mentioned at everything I looked at. I finally know what the technique is and what I need to learn a master. Your tulip painting is absolutely gorgeous! This is definitely one of the most helpful videos. I have watched so far. You have me as a subscriber!
Hands down 1 of the most talented watercolor artist on RU-vid! I'm truly blown away by your skill and the clear concise and straightforward tutorial instructions. I've learned more from you in 2 videos then 20 other tutorials. I'm truly in awe and filled with inspiration- simply Thank You!
I love your teaching manner! I just signed up for your Patreon channel because of your straight-forward way of explaining to absolute beginner/wanna-be watercolorists the basics. You deserve to be compensated for your instruction. $6 per month for your tutorials is the best money I ever spent!
This is an incredible tutorial. Thank you Louise for your wonderful videos. Your passion for teaching shines through as you share your artistic knowledge with us.
I thoroughly enjoyed and learned much from this lesson on glazing. The outtakes at the end are hilarious -- you have a wonderful, deadpan sense of humor!
Absolutely perfect explanation of glazing. Many years ago I took a workshop with the late Diane Maxey, who painted a lot of flowers. Her favorite color with which to glaze was yellow! It is worth noting she also advised starting out in warmer tones than needed, as it is "easier to cool a warm than warm a cool". I hope your family is safe and well. Blessings always!
I came across your videos very recently, just few days back. And I want to confess that I'm in love love with your smile and the way you speak and explain. And also would like to compliment you..... you are a tremendous artist hats off👏👏
Thank you so much! You are an inspiration and I always learn something new! I love your gentle way of teaching and also that you are so humble and don’t mind giving us a laugh at your expense. Bless you.
Absolutely stunning Louise! What a brilliant video full of great tips. You are a fabulous teacher and I am so glad I discovered your channel. Because of you, I will be getting my paints out again. Thankyou.
Thank you, Louise. I like using techniques of watercolor in my acrylic painting and vice versa, just to challenge myself. This particular technique is an exciting lesson. Can't wait to try this with both. I am still heavy on my colors at times. I see that I need to slow down and be more patient.
Louise you are so gifted! You're also so down to earth and admit when you're struggling which makes newbies to watercolour, like me, not feel so artistically challenged 😊 (I'm a coloured pencil/dry medium artist so going into a wet medium is really a challenge for me). Your explanations are so in depth (and I'm not a patreon member unfortunately), even in just your normal videos. Thank you so much for sharing your talent and all your tips! I can only hope to be as good as you one day ☺️.
Love your work, love your voice, I am trying the tulips. I did the glazing chart, I like the length of the projects, just getting back to watercolour and you videos are s helpful. Thank you
thank you so much, hopefully I can absorb this and practice in my own work. and the bloopers at the end are cute and funny. you have a unique and pleasant personality. thank you again for sharing your expertise. as an artist painting well is the number one goal. much love to you and all those around you.
Ah Louise you have won my 💜..its a good job those bloopers are at the end😜 because I wouldn't be able to see your video for the tears in my eyes if they were at the start 🤣. You are tops in my books lady!!! Right up there No:1 thank you from your new west Aussie fan. Btw you are one of the very few watercolourists wno use tube paints, which is what I have😊
Dear Louise, this really got my attention! This video has lead to subscribing to your channel. It‘s so wonderful to watch you and you give so much good advices. I could go on hours 😅 I sometimes was embarrassed, because I too like to watch the details while painting and I felt like it’s not the right way‘ to paint watercolors. But now, I sae you and your paintings are just wonderfull, vibrant and I love the realistic touch. Thank you!
Thank you for sharing and (love your bloopers at the end )picked up some fabulous tips /techniques ...bonne soirée from over here in northwestern France
This is so beautiful and useful - I shall definitely make the chart. I often gulp with my heart in mouth watching you as it looks as if things may mess up. Then I say to myself - relax - this is Louise! you have shown us so many clever things. I love painting tulips so look forward to this one on Patreon - when you're ready! Have a great weekend, hope Dom is much improved.
Excellent tutorial. That tulip really glows It was nice to see glazing in action and the results of it. I bought a copy of that one book you mentioned Making Color Sing Also very helpful. I'm glad you continue to document and then teach your art journey- Its wonderful to see your techniques.
