  • Watercolor pencil can enhance your watercolor paintings with some extra detail and texture. In this video I use a small amount of Derwent's Graphitint water soluble coloured pencils to add some detail and texture to a beach scene.

    Thanks for this beautiful tutorial. It’s so valuable for me as a beginner watercolorist to see professional painters work real-time in order to better understand timing and how long you can actually work with an area before you need to leave it to dry. The way you describe your thought process while you paint is very helpful. I hope you feel better soon ❤️

    Even though we live on different continents, that plant you found was either sea grape or something that has the same ecological niche as sea grape in North America! I feel the heat of the day seeing those stark shadows, the muted green of the leaves, and that little yellow one that has dropped from the plant. Such a lovely composition. Your detail work is amazing.

  • @jonlizsam
    @jonlizsam Před rokem +1

    Wow, very lovely. I love the leaf shapes-how they are a little abstracted but still very recognizable and real. And I especially love the shadows. It’s cool that you found something in your daily life to paint. I’m working on the same thing too. Cheers.

    Such a pleasure, as always, to watch your painting(s) come to life - thanks so much for sharing your wonderful talent and experience with us, Louise. I started watching the video without sound and was concerned that you looked as if you were in need of sleep (!) but then when you mentioned the bronchitis that explained it...sort of! Please take care of yourself, your health is more important than your self-imposed deadlines to continue working on a regular schedule of videos! 💜💜💛💛💚💚

    @ChrissieNicely Před rokem

    Lovely painting, Louise! 😍 - As far as the pencils are concerned, I am not sure the colour is lightfast - especially after wetting and diluting the "tint" part (graphite typically is, of course). Perhaps it would be a great idea to test some swatches in the upcoming Australian summer instead of relying on the manufacturer's rating.

    This was so interesting to watch. I like the subtle colour of the graphitint pencils, they are like the melancholy cousin of watercolour pencils. I think the mixed media path could be a really interesting thing for you to explore. I very much look forward to a work made entirely with graphitint pencils. Would you continue using the soft press paper for that or do you think you would go hot press?

    • @LouiseDeMasi
      @LouiseDeMasi  Před rokem +1

      Thank you! I'm not sure. Maybe hot press. I have quite a few sheets of it and I could use some of it up with drawings.

  • @nkguenther1
    @nkguenther1 Před rokem

    This video was very helpful. Will use my Derwent watercolor pencils more for those fine details and will look into the graphitint pencils. They are currently unavailable on Amazon in the US with this link but are available if I search directly.

  • @BlossomGardensBC
    @BlossomGardensBC Před 11 měsíci

    Hello Louise! What a wonderful and fresh beachy leaf painting. My watercolour pencils are from Faber-Castell and it's a lot of fun, but for me as a beginner not so easy to use them. So thanks for your introduction ❤
    I have another question. The palette you use in this video, is it made of ceramic/porcelain or plastic? It looks good and smart to use, is it? Where can I buy it, I am from Germany.
    Best regards, Susanne

  • @joywright199

  • @donceltic4631
    @donceltic4631 Před rokem

    This is a great tutorial. For one thing you show how wonderful subjects to paint are literally all around us if we can learn to see them. Second, I like the use of the pencils to add details and precise coloration. Although you could have used watercolor, as you said, you did not have to worry about accidently disturbing the previous layers and it was quicker. The use of the pencil to suggest sand was very effective - did you practice that on a scrap first or just take a chance on it?

    • @LouiseDeMasi
      @LouiseDeMasi  Před rokem

      Thanks very much Don. I didn't try it on a scrap piece of paper first. I probably should have but I figured if I do it lightly enough I'd be able to remove it with an eraser.
