I think you’re the best watercolor channel on RU-vid. I think you explain the behaviors of the medium the best. You don’t just show how to do something. You explain the WHY too. And thoroughly show visuals that show each step of what you’re explaining.

@rbrunet4755 4 года назад

Thousands of hours watching wc videos tells me that Louise is probably the best teacher. Straightforward explanations with first rate camera work. Many thanks.

@JGalegria Год назад

Yes and dedicated hours of editing the content to piece together all the visual information that enhances her explanations and makes it so easy for us to understand exactly what she's talking about! 😊

@ethnyjane3248 4 года назад

Oh my goodness, I don't know why I've not discovered you before - I think I've just watched 5 of your videos in a row and you explain things better than I've ever heard them explained before! And your examples are so helpful! Thank you for sharing your understanding and love of the beautiful art of watercolour ♡

@acatinthecradle 4 года назад

I always thought making blooms was a bad thing....now I know different! Thank you so much for explaining this and the process for intentionally making blooms. Tremendously helpful! ❤

@elliestell2696 3 года назад

I love to hear you talk you have such a smooth calming voice your paintings are great I love to watch your videos

@stephaniemitchell8509 4 года назад

I really love blooms, but most artists will tell you to avoid them, not show you how to make them! They really do add interest, texture, and even subtle shading. Personally, I think they're one of the most beautiful aspects of watercolors. If I wanted flat colors, I'd have chosen to learn oil or acrylics, after all. (:

@LouiseDeMasi 4 года назад

Exactly Stephanie! I agree with you 100%. I couldn't have said that better myself. 💜

@adonishtar 2 года назад

You create such high quality videos that I feel like a thief coming away with such value. You have the best channel on watercolor that I’ve seen, and I’ve watched dozens of them.

@mjrtla 4 года назад

This is such a great lesson on blooms. The absolute best lesson I have seen put together, explained in perfect detail, I finally understand blooms!! Thank you so much for making this tutorial, this was awesome!! Thank you so much!

@judithblades5578 4 года назад

@kathleenmcclain6692 3 года назад

Absolutely love blooms. They add such an interesting layer of dimension to my pieces.

@freyamariano106 4 года назад

Oh I love watercolor blooms! The shifting and dispersion are actually why I am so fond of this medium!!

@ropi8739 Год назад

I'm still not a fan of blooms in figurative paintings, but I also still am a big fan of yours. Especially, those roses you showed were exquisitely portrayed oh my!! Absolutely delightful!

@jennyreed2597 2 года назад

Thank you for this lesson, I too think blooms are a quality of watercolour showing the delicacy of touch, and you certainly have it 🤩

@brigidmctiernan8118 4 года назад

Thanks Louise for your video on blooms, how to create them. Now I know to wait for five minutes before dropping in water onto the paint that has lost its sheen. Very helpful video.

@estelacastillo6782 11 месяцев назад

As a young school art class student I failed terribly wc with holes in my paper. I had no direction, disappointment, I stuck to acrylic which I love. I am determined to give it a new start, 35 years later, I’ve learned so much in just a few if your videos. You are amazing. I’m painting a simple Koi, I am actually doing okay. Glad I found you!

@suezq9155 4 года назад

Best tip and explanation of blooms ever!

@LouiseDeMasi 4 года назад

Thanks very much Susan.

@carolbittner4168 4 года назад

I am just getting interested in watercolor; watching videos and trying to learn. These watercolor blooms are magical; I especially like the look of them in the background. Thank you; enjoyed watching you.

@andrapaitz4257 4 года назад

This is the best explanation of blooms that I've heard/seen. Thanks!

@katak5462 4 года назад

One of the best explanation. I love that you use blooms in your artwork.

@devinsnow1351 3 года назад

my gosh as a brand new painter, I just wish I could sit with you and learn. A bit difficult since I'm half a world away, LOL.

@elizabethjmulligan565 3 года назад

I have never used blooms purposely but I will use them now. I paint very differently but I have learned so much from your videos. Thank you.

@MariaMartinez-jb3zn 11 месяцев назад

I love blooms but now I understand how to control them. Asa a patreon member your teachers are more in depth so thank you for that, I appreciate you Louise 🙏🏽🙋🏻‍♀️👍🏽Mia

@MayMay00 3 года назад

This was packed with all the info I was looking for! Finally 👍🏾 thank you. As a beginner explorer of watercolor, I have no idea what I’m doing and this just solved one major question I was struggling with 😊✨

@dorisdavidson7849 3 года назад

This is the best lesson I've seen on watercolour blooms, thanks!

@LouiseDeMasi 3 года назад

Glad it was helpful! Thank you Doris.

@wilmarobinson2878 4 года назад

Excellent video. Clear and concise. Just what I was looking for. Thank you.

@maryannlowrance6034 4 года назад

Wonderful lesson. Finally I know how to control and utilize them. I agree with you - they are lovely and add so much interest when the painter knows what he/she is doing. Thanks!

@pebblesthecat3625 2 года назад

I love seeing examples of your existing work in your tutorials, it's very helpful to see a link between cause and effect. Your explanation of how these are caused is perfect. I now know what I was doing wrong. Thank you.

@bonbeechler2323 3 года назад

I really appreciate your detail and good easy to understand tutorials.

@donna5659 4 года назад

Thank you! Problem solved! You explained this so well and what to do.

@elflordsjourneys 4 года назад

Blooms add unique textures,love the spontaneous effects you get,with them.😀

@elisabet264 4 года назад

I always thought that I ruined my painting when I got blooms,thanks for showing me how beautiful they can be

@jacb4866 2 года назад

Thanks Louise, this was so helpful. I usually always make blooms accidentally, but now I can finally know why. thanks 🙂

@constellations9258 4 года назад

great tutorial about blooms and how and why they form..............they used to frustrate me so much, as I didn't understand what was happening..........now I have a much better understanding of blooms, and how they can even be deliberately created for certain kinds of textures and interest........thanks

@piratesting 3 года назад

I am so joyed that I found this channel. You are a great teacher. Your explanation of blooms finally make sense. I want to explore the deliberate use of blooms in my next test piece.

@sadelyi 4 года назад

You are the most amazing teacher/instructor! And I LOVE your work!

@sand5099 3 года назад

Again I'm amazed by your precise and patient way of explaining techniques. Thank you for this very interesting view on blooming watercolor

@leonalii1533 4 года назад

Thank you so much! This was the best explanation ever on this! I am relatively new to water coloured and was struggling with the frustration of the blooms... now I know better!

@lindyhawthorne2164 2 года назад

I finally started my watercolour practice today and ended up with blooms. You have come to the rescue !!!

@allthumbs3792 4 года назад

Such an interesting effect. It really does add interest but doesn’t distract from the focal image. The sea turtle is a really fine piece! The shell is wonderfully realistic. The blooms in the watery background seem to add motion. Can’t wait to experiment a bit!

@lauriecross4802 4 года назад

As a bloom-lover, I especially appreciated your detailed explanations and examples! You are FANTASTIC! Some of the best instructions I've seen! THANKS!

@cagla7527 Год назад

How relaxing your sound is😴

@marjoriebelt2842 4 года назад

This is a very good explanation of how to avoid and how to create blooms. Thank you for you clear explanation and demonstration. When I first started playing around with watercolors, it was the blooms that excited me most. I hope I can now bring them into my paintings in a more controlled way.

@SailingGarden Год назад

OMG this was a fantastic lesson on Blooms!!! I am going to my completed bouquet paintings and do bloom back grounds! Thank you for sharing this technique… I will do a patreon with you because of your sweet sincere demeanor! … thank you ☺️ 😊

@BelindaPort 7 месяцев назад

I think we all agree: you are the "bestest" teacher! (My grandies say that there is no such word, but what do they know?)

@lbaqnoe 4 года назад

Thank you so much for this, I was a bit intimidated by creating blooms because I thought it might ruin my painting but I never knew you can make beautiful effects from it! Thank you for this!

@harpmyday Год назад

Your explanations are so clear and logical! I really got a lot out of this. Thank you!

@terrymuller8515 2 года назад

Hello Louise. Just noticed that this video is two years old. It wouldn't matter to me as your info will still be relevant no matter how old they are. Love your instructions. I'll keep your videos long term.

@colleenmcchesney1482 Год назад

Okay I have made watercolor blooms for textures on a few of my paintings, but at the time it was not on purpose. I just lucked up with it working successfully. After watching this very informative video of how to create or stop blooms & how they are made I can use this as a technique for my paintings. Thanks for sharing this wonderful information in this video. I am really enjoying your style of painting & teaching.

@krystalland1936 4 года назад

Thank you so much! This was REEEALLY helpful. I love blooms in watercolor, but it is nice to know how to avoid them and use them where I want. 🙂

@angeliquefm7425 10 месяцев назад

An intentional watercolour bloom is such a thrill to make, I just need to learn how to control them.

@mariongowland402 4 года назад

Hi, I’m new to RU-vid channel and the tutorials I have watched so far have been very informative enhanced by your gentle delivery of information. I love to create blooms and very often use a negative painting approach as well. Al that being said I’m still a novice ! Many thanks

@nanetteatienza4297 2 года назад

I am glad to see this tutorial. I did some blooms long time ago but I didn’t quite understand how I did it. I am trying it now and I could produce a bloom … all of it was due to my paint being so wet. Based on how I understood it now, I had to wait for a few seconds when it’s nearly drying (not dry) based on the comparison you showed. I was doing it while it’s still very wet so I couldn’t produce a bloom. Thanks for this tutorial. Very helpful.

@karenkuras8975 4 года назад

@whitneyriver1503 10 месяцев назад

This was SO helpful, thank you! I also love to create blooms in my watercolors, but I need to practice letting the paint dry just the right amount.

@carlaa.1617 4 года назад

Thank you again Louise for another stellar video:) I think blooms are beautiful when used correctly in a painting. Your gorgeous paintings have inspired me to use them more often. I agree that it is what makes watercolour so unique and special to use. This is the best explanation on blooms I have ever heard:)

@bagpipes978 3 года назад

Extremely helpful video! I thought all blooms were mistakes...well, they are in my attempts at painting. LOL But now I see how they can be used creatively to enhance details and textures. Thank you so much. This lessens my frustration as well.❤
