Great stuff I keep my brushes in wooden pots. Bamboo is great. Stopped using jars when in haste I’d knock one over into a stone floor. NASTY DANGER THANKYOU
Thank you for this very helpful tutorial!
Holy moly! So much paint!
that's thousands of dollars worth, as I'm now building my watercolors, and they sure are expensive.
each part of your video is too too.... tooo ....helpful😊
thank you
Very helpful video. Thank you.
Wow.
I'm always struggling with how to organize paints--this video was most helpful! Thank you!
Thank you Jean for sharing this.
You always have the best tips on products and how best to use them; must get a jar of this!
Thank you for sharing your organizing skills
I just found your channel and am glad. I lean towards your style and am learning a lot about color blending and mixing. Thank you so much for the education 🌺
Jean, your videos are wonderful. I enjoy listening to your wisdom. I will never be an artist, but that doesn't stop me from learning. I would much rather be learning something of interest instead of running the television for mind engagement. I am going todabble in some abstract. Hopefully it won't be awful.
Thank you for sharing Jean
Thank you for the organization ideas. I must order that white gouache and As always I can't wait for more painting tutorials. Have a beautiful week Jean :)
Thank you Jean! I just moved and am organizing my new studio. Your video gave me some new ideas!
Thanks for demonstrating the bleed proof white. Extremely useful information. I love the possibilities.
Thank you Jean. I'm always struggling with clutter in my very little studio and you gave me some good ideas. I have the Schmincke white watercolour, but I agree sometimes is not enough, so I will try also this one.
Thank you very much Jean for your precious advice, it’s help me understand the reasons that I found the white gouache fade few later 🙏🏻 🕊 😇
That is good to know, I will have to try some too. That’s the best part of You Tube, we learn so many things.
Many thanks for the tips! I enjoy your channel.
I like your storage ideas. I gotta get some of the bleed proof white, would save a lot of time and frustration 😃. Thank you!
Beautiful mise en place. PRO setup.
Thank you for this helpful video. I, too, was having problems with the Winsor & Newton guache being white and dense enough to simulate foam on waves. And using a pen with nib instead of masking pens that quickly dry up is something I will try. So helpful to see some of your studio set-up as well. Great organization! I have found, however, that my watercolor tubes last for years longer if I store them in either plastic bins with tight lids or large zip-loc storage bags. And I’ve recently switched to quite a few M.Graham watercolors for their lasting ability and intense hues.
Hello, Jane,
Thank you very much for your very informative tutorials. I love the way you teach it.
Please keep up the good work.
Gabi
New to your channel. Brilliant organizational tips. Definitely looking into the Martin's white. Thanks!
Thanks Jean. I'll have to remember that ph Martin bleed proof white . My change jar is half full and when it is full that's when I get art supplies I want. That way I use what I have first , mostly. 🥴👍
thank you～😊
I need to organize my brushes like you did,
Hi Jean, I’m so pleased to have discovered your channel and of course I immediately recognized your South African accent.... ☺️🎨
Not many people recognize the accent.
My ocd just kicked in
I wonder why you don’t open out the tubes (with tin snips) and scrape the dried paint into small containers? I find little empty cosmetics containers useful for this job. Paint is so expensive, at my house every last crumb is rewet and used up! Great video, and loved the gouache tip.
I never use dried up paints. The colors are never as vivid as fresh paint for me.
Would be useful to know which other W&N colours you prefer as well as the few you mention
Payne's grey, neutral tint, indian yellow, yellow ochre and indigo is what comes to mind right now. Hope this helps.
I didn't realize that Dr. Ph. Martin's Bleedproof White is an opaque watercolor (as per their website), assumed it was acrylic. I'll definitely get this as it looks much better than a gelly roll :) I'd also like to know more about your fav W&N colors. I use mostly Daniel Smith, but I do like WN Winsor Violet over Carbazole Violet and WN Cerulean Blue in addition to DS Cerulean Chromium, but not a fan of WN earth colors. Winsor & Newton unfortunately discontinued my favorite yellows, the old formulas of New Gamboge PY153 and Transparent Yellow PY97 (it was more transparent and neutral than Hansa Yellow Medium).
I highly recommend Susan scheewes opaque white it's fabulous the 20 tube set is on Amazon
I've discovered Dr Martins bleed proof white watercolor. It's great.
Even if watercolors are dried up, just add water.. no need to trow
Your work is gorgeous! Do you ever offer any online classes?
Hi Debra. Thanks for reaching out. Yes I do have online classes at watercolors.jeanlurssen.com/
@@JeanLurssen I found them and have happily signed up for two to start with. I have a couple questions and I'm not sure why, but I was unable to use the link provided on your site, so here I am bothering you on youtube (I'm sorry).
While shopping for supplies I discovered acrylic inks can be transparent or opaque and I wasn't sure which I should buy. Also, you are using paints fresh out of the tube and I'm wondering how important that is. Can I use my paint that I've already dried in my palette? It's a matter of budget but if you feel it does make a big difference I'll do it. Thanks so much!
Do you have Hake brushes?
I do but hardly ever use them.
The product description of the Dr PH Martin bleed proof white is ‘opaque watercolor’, so it’s not a stretch to call it gouache. 🙂✌🏼.
I know but after trying it I'm convinced it is really a gouache rather than opaque watercolor.
