I had been watching so many videos of things to “NOT” to do that it does scare you into not playing. I’ve been taking all the mix match paper that I have had through the years of painting..not painting cycles and I just started using it all up playing and have spent hours of just not caring about the weight of what I shouldn’t do. I feel so much better about my art and I’ve made so many gains. You were the teacher I needed when I was a little girl and I know I would have blossomed and found the drive to become an artist. Nothing wrong with discovering it in my 60’s I guess. So thank you..you make me smile every time.

@KristyRice 2 года назад

Such a profound point, all the “nots” of “shouldn’ts” of watercolor can be absolutely paralyzing! So glad you’re here!

@sheloveswhimsy 2 года назад

I’ve been doing acrylics for countless years. For given life reasons-internal and external, I’ve dried up. Though I’ve created a lot, sold some, and others love my whimsy style-I haven’t been able to paint. I do break some rules. I have to admit, I don’t know what most are as I mostly depend on my imagination. 😂 I’ve *never* delved into watercolor. I’m doing so now to see where it leads me. Breaking watercolor *rules* seems fitting right now for me-especially entering a new medium. Thanks, Kristy!

I love your comment about your paper staying wet since you live in the nw US. I am a desert dweller and have quite the opposite experience! Yesterday I made a nice bright green using phthalo turquoise and aureolin and was pleasantly surprised when the line I painted (wet in wet) of aureolin showed up. I love the combination of DS Amazonite Genuine tipped with Magenta. And I am crazy about granulating watercolors! I am definitely excited to follow your lead and audition a variety of colors for leaves. Sometimes it's hard to let go and try the unconventional - but I'm working on it! Many thanks for your exhuberance and encouragement. Your sparkle is just what this introvert needs! You are a blessing, Kristy.

@KristyRice 2 года назад

Audition away!! Thank you! For watching!!

@Goldi-Luc 2 года назад

i live in new mexico and yeah the paper doesn't stay wet for long! but i prefer it that way usually. when i want it to stay wet for longer i will soak the back of the paper too, it helps it stay flat too!

@annenglish2935 2 года назад

Before I started to watercolor, I just didn't see colors the way I do now... I've fallen in love with every green shade & blue/green shade they make... even before I play with them. I remember being fascinated with any new paint, while watching how it moves along the paper! Aqua Green, Winsor Newton, & Phthalos just thrill me! I went through this with blues 💙 also... then reds, you get the picture Kristy. Thank you 😊 for your encouragement to color "outside the lines" and to make art a part of joyful playtime! Love you Kristy, a California Gramma ❤

Hi Kristy, Iam so glad I found your channel you are the best teacher EVER! You have given me inspiration! I love liner brushes the longer and thinner the better to paint beautiful tree branches. It is the only brush I can use to even attempt a tree branch. Really enjoyed your lesson, Thanks.

@KristyRice 2 года назад

Ahh yes another liner brush obsessed!! XO Glad you’re here!!

@nancyenjay7966 2 года назад

I love the idea of glazing and gave it a try on your "Better Composition" video (the yellow at the end...come on...that was AMAZING), anyway, I tended to get some hard lines at the edges of my leaves and a few blooms, not sure what I'm doing wrong. So grateful for your videos, they've opened up a much less stressful way to paint for anxious me and I'm loving it!

@KristyRice 2 года назад

Ahhh gosh yeah that yellow was awesome lol!! It could be that when you finished the shape, you hade too much water or a puddle on the area. Pigment will creep to the edges of a puddle and dry as a hard edge :)

@amandadolby189 Год назад

I actually make that hard edge by flooding and pushing the pigment purposefully to the edge of petals on some faded florals. Never say never!!

@Goldi-Luc 2 года назад

i was so hesitant to try the not rinsing brush challenge, but i actually really enjoyed it! i probably will still keep rinsing for alot of my art, but theres definitely times I'm going to paint this way now. also i tried adding the different colors into leaves and I LOVE IT! so much. I'm still learning I've only been watercoloring for a bit over a year, and you're videos teach things that others don't and definitely bring the fun and freedom into it! i have never used a liner brush, i have some skinny detail brushes and some pointy round brushes i use for details that you use your liner brush for. i probably will try a liner brush and a cats tongue someday though since i love buying new art supplies!

Kristy, I can't remember if you usually have music in your background, but I just wanted to say that for me, it's distracting. I'm not wanting to be fussy here, but when I'm listening to you, I just want to hear you. You are very enjoyable to listen to without any extra "fluff." Love this exercise...especially not rinsing the brush! Thank you.

I certainly can!! And yes paper quality can make them happen more frequently

@melpetricko3932 2 года назад

Hey Kristy I love it when you paint leaves. They're so beautiful. If you don't mind though, I have a petals question for you. I am trying to learn roses and peonies, and sometimes I feel like I'm making progress, but sometimes, somehow, my petals wind up looking thick and stiff like plastic flowers. Do you have any suggestions for me? Thanks for everything you do.

Hmmm are you on Instagram or Facebook? I’d love to see what your explain so I can really respond! If not email me hello@kristyrice.com.

@klaudiadollbaum6382 2 года назад

I have question with regard to Daniel Smith water color. I see that it comes both in tubes and in palettes where the paint is already in the half pans. Is there still a big difference in the paint even though they are both the Daniel Smith brand? Is there still some huge advantage with the tube paints? Thanks so much for your input

@KristyRice 2 года назад

Great question. In general I find that pre-manufactured half pans have more fillers in them so they are more stable for transit etc. I personally almost always squeeze tube pigment into half pans creating my own sets :)

@sandrift 2 года назад

I haven’t learned to use a liner brush yet - it seems like it could be difficult to control, so would appreciate your reviewing how to work with them. Just ordered your brushes on Amazon and am excited to try your dagger - others seem so much longer (same concern about control!). Apologies if you addressed this but when do you expect your watercolor set to be released?

@KristyRice 2 года назад

What brand are they? Synthetic or? Liner brushes probably have the steepest learning curve so be kind to yourself… I do however prefer synthetic as they have a nice spring back effect. Feels more controlled.

@vivianmar7765 2 года назад

The liner brushes are Mont Marte sable rigger. You are right. Next time I will pay attention to the material. Btw synthetic brushes are cheaper.

I question myself like maybe I'm not going to want to paint maybe I want to sketch or maybe I want to scrap book or mixed media idk I'm lost lol HELP

@KristyRice 2 года назад

Use what you have... just knowing whatever frustration you might feel along the way is intensified by lower quality supplies. This isn't me being critical but me reminding you to be kind to yourself as you experiment! Sure your paper might pill a little or buckle but you can still enjoy the explosions of color. One last suggestion. Use up the low quality paper quickly. Work fast and experience the pigments with passion. You'll learn a ton and then can level up to better paper sooner, its a win win! Good paper is far more important that anything else :)
