You are very welcome, Maria! Adding fog to any painting gives it more interest - you can use opaque white to add fog to paintings you've already painting, also.
Magic happens at 2:45. . . =^) This is a great technique that looks deceptively easy, but there are a few ways to mess it up. If you put your clean brush loaded with water directly on the paint edge, you'll get a blossom into the paint area; maybe not what you want. But if you start with the water a few cm away from the painted edge, and then just touch the brush to the edge of the paint, the pain will generally flow toward the water. That's what she's doing here. It is a subtle difference, but the end results are polar opposites.
Oh thanks, what CZcams channel do you have? Are you in any galleries. If you know all of this why don’t you get a channel or only watch what what YOU need to learn. This seems like criticism to me, I hope I’m wrong 😑
Thank you so much. The ability to paint a somewhat presentable picture renewed my faith. You broke it down to skills I could do! I am a fan! As an educator I really appreciate good teaching.
Excellent tutorial. Very informative and easy to follow. I'm going to give Watercolours a go ... now I'm in my 60's. Never painted before ... who dares WINS !
Thank you Deb. One of the best demos I have seen. This is so helpful for me as a complete beginner. You took the time to explain what you were doing. You are a great teacher and artist. Thank you.

Take it one section at a time, Terri, then it becomes doable. I'll be posting a great video on scraping rocks this week. Another easy way for beautiful watercolor.
I just watched this demo of creating fog for the second time. Now that I have more experience, I can understand more. You are such an inspiration to me, Deb. Thank you.
dear Deb, to me, you are absolutely the best watercolour instructor on u tube! !! your gentle speech is so soothing. thx for this video. I tried it and it turned out superb. Will stay with your videos for all my learning.
Hi Deb I watched many videos of watercolour painting.many people don't talk about technique .The y just paint.But you letout many tech while painting.You r an amazing teacher!!! Thankyou so much!
HI Deb, I watched this video 6 or 7 times before attempting the painting. I'm so pleased with the result. I wish I could show it to you. You are very generous with your time and you videos are detailed and instructive. Thanks for your help.
This was great!! My painting turned out beautifully in my first try. I'm going to do it again 'cause I'm not happy with some bits but wow. I'm a beginner, like I've attempted 3 watercolour paintings before coming to this and I loved it. I don't have any fancy paints or know their names but I used black for my first mountain thing, black and blue for my second and black and purple for my third. It looks awesomee
Hello Deb ... you may feel that the demo is simple, but the outcome is impressive. Thank you for so many clear and valuable watercolour techniques in such a short time.
This same effect would apply for steam and then adding some layers of Payne's Gray and pale gray blue for deeper shadows between the steam plumes. Thanks for making this tutorial. I'm nearly ready to do this on my current piece.
Loved this video, i believe I have watched it 6 or 7 times so far. Your teaching style is great, especially for a beginner like myself. I look forward to watching more of your videos.
Hi Deb! This was a wonderful watercolor tutorial. If not the best! Your techniques are so helpful to me, and I love how concise this is. All of your explanations are brilliant.
@@DebWatson I started to paint this in my watercolor sketchbook. The only water wet brush technique didn't work well and I'm guessing that it is because it isn't 100 percent cotton paper. But I have some arches arriving tomorrow! 🙂 I'm going to try to do an overlapping wet on wet after my tree outline dries. And will probably have to remove some paint etc. I want to be able to paint the foam in a waterfall.
This is a great tutorial. Thank you for sharing your amazing talent. You make it look so easy, but I know it hours and hours of practice. Thanks again.
Hi Debra, a very happy new year....i tried this today.... It's a real easy method....though a learner like me can still stumble and over do the fog...i think it turned out not do bad..... Thanks for sharing your technique...
Thanks for sharing your awesome tutorial ma’am. I love the serenity of your painting. So calm and beautiful to watch.☺️💕👍🏻 Hello 👋🏻 I’m your newest follower ma’am.☺️👍🏻 God bless and please keep safe always.☺️🙏🏻
Great tutorial on fog. Can't wait to try it. Could you talk about how you get your dark color mix of blue and grey. Is it mostly paint with a touch of water. Thanks
I like this technique, and fog can be painted from the dark gray background. But, if you had green foliage it would be difficult to create fog because you cannot use green from the background. Then what do you do?
If you can't lift color, I use opaque white to cover the color. Pro White by Daler Rowny and Bleed Proof White by Dr. Martin are both great opaque whites that cover well. Keep painting!
I wish all artists posting "tutorials" would explain what they're doing the way you do here, Deb. It makes a world of difference.
That is an excellent technique and demonstration. The best I’ve found on CZcams thus far. Thank you
Wow, thank you so much, Donny!
Thank you Deb for sharing, so enjoyed the demo. and your valuable tips.😊
You are very welcome, Maria! Adding fog to any painting gives it more interest - you can use opaque white to add fog to paintings you've already painting, also.

good tips here.
Thanks, Mary! Hope your fog turns out great.

Glad it was helpful, James. I like effects like fog and blowing snow, and they add a lot of interest to your paintings - well worth learning.
@@DebWatson thank You 🙏🏼
Thank you so much. The ability to paint a somewhat presentable picture renewed my faith. You broke it down to skills I could do! I am a fan! As an educator I really appreciate good teaching.
Wonderful! Thank YOU for the kind words.
It's wonderful to have you back on CZcams, Deb! And thanks for such an eye pleasing painting.
Thank you for making and sharing This. I loved following it while I painted. Thank you for reminding me that not everything needs to be wet on wet.
You are so welcome!
Excellent tutorial. Very informative and easy to follow. I'm going to give Watercolours a go ... now I'm in my 60's. Never painted before ... who dares WINS !
Deb, thanks for a great lesson on fog! Your instructions are always so good!
Beautiful Deb, thank you!💖
You are so welcome - we did this in class and every painting looked unique.
@@DebWatson That's the best part isn't it each person has their own style.
Thank you Deb. One of the best demos I have seen. This is so helpful for me as a complete beginner. You took the time to explain what you were doing. You are a great teacher and artist. Thank you.
Thanks, John! Your comment made my day.
This is a very nice and clearly explained technique to make fog on the bottom edges.
Thank you very much for posting, it's helpful!

Thank you so much for this video. I'm currently in a 2nd dimensional class and we are learning about watercolors.
Hope your class is fun - I think watercolor is the easiest medium.
Absolutely Beautiful
Beautiful!
Thank you, Meri! Foggy scenes work well with one or two colors. The bigger change in value (from white to black) the more dramatic.
I too have watched it a number times! Great teaching!

Wonderfully done. It’s so beautiful. Thank you giving ideas on how to go about making fogs.
You're welcome, Amy. You can add fog to older painting by using opaque white paint. A little fog often makes a landscape more interesting.
HI Deb, I watched this video 6 or 7 times before attempting the painting. I'm so pleased with the result. I wish I could show it to you. You are very generous with your time and you videos are detailed and instructive. Thanks for your help.

Hi Deb, Thanks for the great demo on fog, one of my favorite painting subjects in watercolor and oil. Love your gentle touch and comments. Super work.
This is SO beautiful! I will try today to replicate this technique. You are an amazing art teacher. Gracias
Thanks so much 😊
You really encouraged me, I have never none water colors, however I have watered down my paints to look like water colors, but it's different.
Fun and easy.Thanks
You're welcome, Andre. This will be featured in an upcoming online lesson.
Lovely fog technique and tips thank you!

Thank you so much. I always wanted to learn how to paint fog with watercolor and this is the perfect tutorial :)
This same effect would apply for steam and then adding some layers of Payne's Gray and pale gray blue for deeper shadows between the steam plumes. Thanks for making this tutorial. I'm nearly ready to do this on my current piece.
Sounds like it will be great!

@@soupbonep You're probably right about the paper. With a little practice, I think your waterfall will be beautiful

Lindo trabajo. Creo que falta detallar mejor el reflejo de la vegetación sobre el agua. Pero la neblina quedó estupenda.
Good Job its so cool.
Thank you, it helps a lot!
beautiful, love your artwork, i subscribed to your channel in hopes of seeing more beautiful artwork.
