Watercolor Milky Way Night Sky Painting Demonstration

This time I decided to paint a milky way!
I paint using watercolor, except the white, instead of white watercolor I use white gouache. The white gouache is just like watercolor, except it's opaque - not transparent (as watercolors), so you also need to dilute it with water.
I love painting the traditional watercolor way, where you use white paper as your medium, but I wanted to create something different, deeper in colors, more vibrant. So I started using white gouache to add light, highlights, reflections and sometimes mix it with watercolors to get a new/lighter color. I felt in love with this new way and I wanted to share this with you, what's it like to add that white gouache to your watercolor paintings :)
Please LIKE and SUBSCRIBE! I also appreciate all the lovely comments :)
One thing I haven't mentioned in the video.. the paper. I used hot pressed watercolor paper, 9x12. It's smooth and it can absorb a ton of water and paint.
Thanks for watching :)

Another wonder ! with or without "white gouache"is always a wonder- Thanks Maria

@mariamorjane 8 лет назад

Thanks Ana :) yes that's true.. But in my videos.. Wherever you see white or I say white.. You know it's white gouache.

@julienorton1067 8 лет назад

Hi Maria. another beautiful piece. watercolour, Milky way, gouache... All my faves. gouache is obviously there to make your white stand out. it's chalky. that's why it works. otherwise it's too transparent. art is a personal preference. so ignore the snobs. beautiful work, yet again. The music is magical, too. x

@mariamorjane 8 лет назад

Hi Julie :) Thank you so much for your nice words, very encouraging, you are totally right, I'm glad you understand. Thanks again! Btw music is by Kevin McLeod, it's free to download, info in my description.

Were you interested in art as a child ? When did you start to love art ? This is another gorgeous water color. Thanks.

@mariamorjane 5 лет назад

Thank you Ed. I didn't have any interest in painting when I was a child. I tried when I was 20 with pencils but didn't like it at all😆then years later randomly in 2012/2013 picked up watercolor and felt in love with the medium☺️

@stephanied9629 8 лет назад

Maria, I am so very inspired by your work and I thank you so much for these tutorials. I have lived in a horrible abusive marriage for 20 years, I have Complex Post Traumatic Disorder as a result. I am free from it now but living with the emotional damage. I am starting to paint as healing therapy, and your work is very inspiring. My 21 yo daughter is an artist so I'm hoping somewhere in the recesses of my genes is some artistic talent also. Anyhow, thank you again, I'll be studying your tutorials and practicing away.

@mariamorjane 8 лет назад

Hi Stephanie, thank you so much! and I'm so sorry to hear that... I know for sure that you found the best way to relax and a way to get your mind away from everyday life. Painting calms me down as well, it's such a stress reliever. I'm so glad to hear you find painting as your healing therapy. Once you get into it you can barely walk away, all I want to do is paint everyday for hours. When I lost my twin brother two years ago, that's when I really started painting. It's incredible what painting can do to your mind, it helped me to get through the hardest time of my life. It's interesting tho, now when I look at my paintings from that period of time, I can read the emotions coming through. Thank you for sharing.

@spontaneousevangelist6312 8 лет назад

I've watched 3 of your paintings now and I really like them. I really appreciate that you use the black and white colors. I've been brushing up (haha) on some watercolor knowledge and heard a few times now that white and black don't work or are pointless in water paints. Well, I guess now I'll freely disagree. I wanted to also say that towards the end when you removed the paper towel and the message "Thanks for watching" was there was really cool lol. Cheers and God Bless!

@mariamorjane 8 лет назад

Hi Lehua, I really appreciate your nice comment and the point you made about using black or white in watercolor. I think it's all about creating your own style so as long as your paint requires water, it's all watercolor. In traditional watercolor painting you use your white paper as medium but then you can't create night scenes that are rich in colors because you can't freely paint the sky and not to mention you can't create stars without white. Thanks again for watching all those videos and glad you liked the ending :)

@TheRokkis 7 лет назад

Thank you for the demonstration! I think I even learned something that will make my road to "not the worst painter in the world" less rocky =P I don't have gouache or acrylic white, so it's interesting to see how I manage to get around the stars and stuff. Acrylic white seems to be the most common way to make the stars according to the 50 videos I've seen, actually it's the only way I've seen so far. But I'd rather at least try with basic watercolor white before rushing to the shop. It's weird while I'm really bad at drawing (seriously 6 graders are generally better than me) but for some reason I'm a lot better with watercolors. I guess it might be because I don't have to care about the lines being so strictly straight and it will still look decent. Thanks again and nice work!

@mariamorjane 7 лет назад

Hi! Good luck with your painting! and thank you for your comment. Please keep in mind that if you are just painting stars then regular watercolor white is fine too! Thank you!

@Kyomiibrown 8 лет назад

Gouache is opaque watercolour. No need to justify your use to the "purists" out there Maria ;) IMHO Art has NO rules. It should not matter what mediums are used to create beautiful artwork, we should embrace its beauty. If any purist disagrees with your use of gouache, then they have the problem. Life is too short, stay true to yourself and ignore the naysayers. I know how discouraging some purists can be. Love your work 😊

@mariamorjane 8 лет назад

Kyomii, I really appreciate your comment. You are absolutely right! Thank you so much. This is how I feel about painting as well, no rules in art :) but You have no idea some of the messages I got about the gouache... It's like oh my... If you don't like it please don't dislike my video, and don't comment so rudely... just because I am using gouache but go to another channel lol thank you again!

@Puffbug 7 лет назад

Will regular white water colour have the same affect as gouache ? new to watercolour, your work is beautiful

@mariamorjane 7 лет назад

Hi Patricia, the designer's gouache and regular watercolor (lets say chinese white) are both watercolors, the only difference is that chinese white is transparent where designer's gouache (color I used - permanent white) is an opaque watercolor. They are different because designers gouache is creamy milky like - opaque and that's how I am able to get this effect. It would be harder to achieve this with regular transparent watercolor. Hope this makes sense :) Thank you Patricia!

@StephenMarkTurner 7 лет назад

People who whine about gouache should get a life. Back in the day, JMW Turner used it. More recently, Stephen Quiller does a lot of opaque over transparent.

@mariamorjane 7 лет назад

lol Stephen, this made me laugh :)...I so agree... art is art, and who cares if you use transparent or opaque watercolor, it's still watercolor ;)

@지민-n2j 5 лет назад

@zenus7966 7 лет назад

So beautiful and peaceful painting. I have Holbein Titanium white, which I know that it's opaque, can I use it instead of white gouache? And what is the different between two type? Thanks a lot :)

@mariamorjane 7 лет назад

Hi Isa, thank you so much :) if your Titanium White by Holbein is opaque then you can definitely paint with that one :) I use Gouache which is an opaque watercolor (right now I paint with gouache by Holbein as well) Before that I was using Designer's gouache by WN, which is also an opaque watercolor, I know...confusing ;)

@zenus7966 7 лет назад

Thank you for replying Maria :D. Yeah, I was very confused. I'll use my Titanium White, but I'll also try gouache if I have a chance :))

@mariamorjane 7 лет назад

Awesome :)) The way I started painting with gouache was I never liked WN white watercolor "chinese white" (that's what I first had) because it's too transparent and very grayish so one day I went to an art store and looked for a different brand, I saw Utrecht and thought it was a regular watercolor but bought Designers Gouache Permanent White color by Utrecht, went home started painting with it and was like... hmmm it's so creamy and milky like lol I kept painting and then loved it more with every stroke, I looked it up and was like... wait a second this isn't regular watercolor haha it's opaque watercolor called designer's gouache or just gouache ;) then I was so motivated to experiment with it more and started painting all these night scenes etc.

@zenus7966 7 лет назад

That's how you discovered your style :)). Thank you so much, it helped me a lot. Even in the way of finding my style and characteristics of some watercolors :D

@mariamorjane 7 лет назад

How do you stop the paper from getting bumpy? Also how do you get it to stay flat?

@mariamorjane 7 лет назад

Hi Jayde, in this video I was just placing my watercolor paper on a another thicker paper. So there was a suction from water/paint created between the papers and the paper never buckled. Now I place my watercolor paper on a glass and I love it. Thank you.

@artsyb9482 8 лет назад

this is stunning oh my gosh,, also how long have you been using watercolors and gouache? your watercolor work is amazing!!

@artsyb9482 8 лет назад

sorry just another question, do you prefer cold press or warm press more for using watercolors?

@mariamorjane 8 лет назад

Hi Bridget! Thank you :) I started adding white gouache to my watercolor just about 3 years ago and I loved it since.

@mariamorjane 8 лет назад

I prefer hot pressed, but it really depends on what I'm painting. If I need my background to be real smooth where I'll be adding a lot of white gouache then I'm going to use hot pressed, if the painting is more just watercolor, no white gouache.. I will use cold pressed, the more bumpy paper :)

@artsyb9482 8 лет назад

Maria Raczynska ok thank you so much!!

Hi May, I don't remember exactly cuz I uploaded it couple months ago, I think 1.30min but all the paintings take me between 1-2hrs depending on how complicated they are.
