Thank you for this. I'm very, very new to watercolor and your approach is so soothing and encouraging to me. I feel as if I CAN accomplish this goal with you-and it doesn't hurt that I've just received one of my first watercolor journals to join along!
12:44 I can relate to the "I can't believe I just painted that" in both versions so very much ❤️. Thank you for letting us know that this happens to you as well.
I really enjoyed this tutorial, I changed it up a little bit and threw some metallic into one of my flowers to highlight it a little bit more. Thank you for the inspiration
I think the hardest words I had to learn to say were "I'm an artist"....sometimes I still feel like an imposter, even though I taught art at an alternative school for five years, had a show in the gallery of my town's City Hall, painted since I was a child (I'll be 80 next year), still hard some days to say "I'm an artist". Thanks for rekindling a flame. I've gotten out old art journals and am filling in empty pages again.
Simply gorgeous ! I love how it came out - super nice color combination. Thank you for the inspiration - I will definitely give it a go, though mine would look like if it was painted by a 7yrs old 😂🥲, but won’t give up ! I find myself in all the styles you share. Thanks tons. God bless
Thank you again, day 4 done! Thanks for your replies...I appreciate being connected to you and I like all of your moods - quieter energy, quirky energy, everything that you are is great and I've benefitting greatly doing this with you. I was thawing some ice cream that needs to sit out and thought it a great time to come in there and do my daily journal entry with you. Like I said, mine don't look like yours, not quite where I would like to get to, yet I like what I'm making and the practice is helpful, feeling more confident as an artist, finding my way. I want to keep learning from you, your style seems to suit me very well. Thank you again. I hope you're doing well.
I just found your channel and love your style and teaching method! Thank you so much as you have inspired me to get back to painting with your daily watercolor journaling. I am so excited to start!
Doesn't look like yours, but I showed up (before the family woke up) and it looks Ok...added some pencil work, then it looked better. Love the PINK flowers 🌺🌺🌺 Used KingArt pallet because I'm in a hurry. From Arizona 🌺, it's 31° and we have a Freezing Warning 🥶 ⚠️ oh my! Thanks for the synergy! 🎨🎉 Have a great day!
I love the idea of painting in a journal however I find that some journals aren’t a very high quality and then you don’t feel very good about what you are painting. What brand of journal are you using? Sorry if you’ve already mentioned that and I missed it. Thank you for doing this everyday.
Yes, some journals are frustrating. My favorites are Etchr Lab and Baohong cold press. The one I’m using in this video, I actually don’t know the brand 🤪 I bought it two years ago and never finished it. The paper is better than most but it isn’t cotton. It’s working for me and these quick sketches.
this was a really hard one for me, flowers are not my friends, but i won't walk away from a challenge, i like your choices. if your looking for ideas i do like buildings bridges, lighthouses , you may already have done any of those , talking about accidents, i'm looking over what i have done so far, & my cow looks like she's licking her nose , because of how my paints have bled together.😄😄😄
Thanks for watching. Keep practicing those challenging subjects and soon they won’t be so challenging. There is a lighthouse video and I am trying to incorporate more architecture painting. Happy painting.
