Special thanks to my friend Shari Van de Pol for her ceaseless efforts in ensuring I could film this video on her phone (and then receive the darn files after!)
Thanks to my wife, Renee Walkom, for filming most of this --
And thanks to Nick Robinson for swooping in at the end to get the last few shots :)
Hey all! I imagine some of you may be wondering what colors I've got on my palette.
I ... actually don't know. They change so often and I don't keep track. I do know that I couldn't live without:
Ultramarine Blue
Cobalt Blue
Pthalo Blue
Burnt Sienna
Raw Umber
Vermillion
Cad Yellow Light
The brands I use range. Holbein, Winsor/Newton, Daniel Smith, Daler-Rowney.
Thanks Marco, this is really helpful! Can't wait to try this out for myself!
Hey, Marco. I always love videos where you focus on brush techniques, as you did often in this one. I keep going back to your video Digital Brushwork Techniques from your store, and one of these days, I'll learn to loosen up.
By the way, I don't know if you noticed, but your Intern sneaked his own portrait into your profile picture. I'm sure he did it when you were not looking.
@@SamReevesWrites Thanks, Sam! As always - experience is really what unlocks the looseness :)
@@marcobucci Thanks!
What? No titanium white?
"coloring booky" is now a technical term I will use.
When you're cleaning up your brush with your pants- I'm dead.
life tip for all the young artists who still live with their parents.
Use your clothes as towels for your brushes and your mother will smack you senseless :P
This sounds like excellent advice.
And do it with acrylic
actually, if you’re wearing dark blue/black clothing and using watercolor , its pretty easy to get away with
its how i paint in class when im wearing my school uniform (which has a dark blue skirt and jacket)
don’t know if it’d work with gouache though, considering its more opaque
@@marigasudaisuki acrylic would still come off eventually, for me the worse was oil paint and the same paint you use to paint buildings, i still have some very colourfull blue shorts because of that :)
You could just use old clothes you don't need anymore.
7:00 I knew it was a matter of time 'til the dad jokes came in
sigh, accurate.
Fantastic Marco. You brought some joy to my Mom in her final days, and it's wonderful to see the full video.
What James Gurney does to keep his water container from slipping, is he puts a small magnet at the bottom of his jar, and on the underside of his paint tray. I think it's a good solution, but haven't gotten around to trying it.
It works brilliantly. Scrounge a magnet off the fridge.
*but he's using a plastic palette*
@@bozmundarts2614 you put one magnet in the jar of water, and it's twin on the other side of the palette. It doesn't matter what material the palette is.
@@henryglennon3864 okay you got me with that one....
With some imagination you can solve a lot of things tbh.
I love your humor man I laughed through the entire video haha. Anything you post here is a pleasure to watch, for the eyes and for the mood. Thank you for this moment
Thanks :)
Hey, it's my home town!
Admittedly, a part of town that's probably too high-class for me to even look at, but it still counts!
This is the content that I want
Personally....i think art is a form of relaxing
Your sketching is so cool...The way you identify and implement colors - it`s so professional. Damn, it`s amazing....
Love seeing your process. I find it satisfying how loose you work, yet still manage to capture the scene beautifully.
the wifey is holdin it down bro...even on vacation
Simply amazing :D
That 'art hack' caught me off guard! 😂
Fortunate timing for your trip Marco; just in time.
Man he understands the Chadness of Putting paint on your pants. If my art teacher can see me now.
Man, what a wholesome experience it must have been.
your watercolour art is so beautiful. I love learning how to paint like you in your videos!
Outstanding video! Interesting, entertaining, great tips for the beginning or intermediate watercolor artist.
This video uploaded exactly when I buy a small travel bag for art supplies.
Travel journaling? Sure, sounds fun.
*Looks at bank account*
Me: Guess I'll stay at home then.
You can totally travel journal at home. There are lots of amazing subject matters that you might've not even noticed before; like dappled shadows on the ground, or an interestingly lit trash can, or some trees with an old house in front of them.
Guess I'm traveling to the 7/11 down the street.
@@NATA5II ngl is someone painted the slupee machines and popped the colors it'd look sick
@@NATA5II that is such a vibe wtf
I would love to see your failures and a discussion, it would be invaluable learning. I feel every watercolour of mine is a failure so far. Thanks Marco 😀
Always so inspiring! Thank you!
So delighted to see another video❤️ thanks Marco!
This is AMAZING!
Thanks a lot, just what I needed on my gouache&watercolor journey.
Nice work as always Marco. Loved the sketch/painting
Very cool, old swim shorts and all! Thankyou!
Hehe. I'm personally one to wipe my brush on my arm, works just as well imo
Me too, at the end I like to see my colorful hand
Same. Found a good solution last year - a tennis wristband - I wear a black one and watercolors don't even show. It's close to my paintbrush and is easy to rinse 😊
I do this too! 😂
I hope you enjoyed your time here in The Bahamas, Marco. Thanks for the visual journal
I like your sketch package, quick start and one hand holding every thing.
Wow, This was great! I'll try more live drawing from now on! It most be fun!! Happy vacations!! Thanks for sharing!
I love the way you explain things, it is natural and easy to understand. Great content, great painting, video great !! Sei brillante Marco!
Awesome!! Thanks for sharing
Highly enjoyable Marco! Big up
Man, I wish I saw your tutorials BEFORE my trip to Bahamas from last year 😭 your videos make me itch to paint again! Thanks for another golden tutorial👏
Amazing videos. Your art is just gorgeous
Thank you marco! You are my number 1 art teacher youtube chanel!
You have a very interesting voice. I like it. And I love your humor. You are inspiring! Your art is reflective of your character which is genuine and intelligent.
Thanks for tips... It's a really nice video. I enjoyed to watch it
Wow thats amazing
love the way you draw
Fantastic stuff Marco. Sometimes I get lost in the initial pencil sketch, and then the work turns into a pencil piece, or sometimes i get carried away with coloured pencils. Its great to see how much work can be done with just the brush and the right colours and values. Also I appreciate that frosty can of Kalik ! I had quite a few of those the last time I was in the Bahamas ! Cheers
Anything Marco Bucci I like, he perfected my face drawing skills
Excellent work and presentation you make it look so easy I like your way of holding the pallet and card together that must be quite a trick when thing to teep it all steady and not drag paint from the pallet onto your work look forward to more of your highly informative videos kind regards mickT
you make it look soo easy.
Thank you for sharing, extremly useful as always. I completely get being an artist on holiday and relaxing on a vacation being difficult. I feel like I am wasting precious painting and sketching opportunities! :D
I've became your fan marco😍😍..... An artist with exact explaining skills... Strong legs😅... And humour... What else anybody needs☺☺👏👏🙌👍🤘
magical
Hahah. The art hack part 😂. So true. I don’t own a single pair of pants without paint on them. Love your videos man. I’ve watched every single one from back to front.
11:35 me (watching this video on quarantine) : aight imma head out now (from my bed)
amazing stuff
Really cool video, Marco. I liked seeing your process and how you 'saw' what you painted.
Hey Carolynn - thanks a lot!
That art hack XD syper inspired but still super intimidated by it haha. Thanks for all the tips though! It’ll take time to change m y mindset with painting on location and lots of practice to see the way you see colors and compositions 😅
Now I feel like doing journal painting on my vacation. I bet its satisfying and the memories last forever
It's pretty amazing how your brain remembers exactly the moment of the painting, even from trips 10+ years ago. Something I've never experienced with taking photographs!
thanks for the tips!!
Thank you so informative
Keeping all the visual language and your image away, Your sound keeps to a promise of radiating energy and confidence for knowledge.
Thanks!
Nice work! I do a fair bit of wildlife sketching in the field, but I've never really considered doing a travel journal of any kind. Maybe something worth having a look at though!
I also have similar water containg problem and Im solve with 2 magnets, easy to travel and strong enough to support the water between the plastics
This is timely advice as I'm living abroad for a few months and im determined to document it by Watercoloring. Your watercolor videos are truely inspiring and I hope you make a more beginners guide to watercolor. I really like your speed and relaxed approach to painting, its actually the reason I started painting myself as I found water color to be rather slow and scary until I saw your work. However I realized that your speed and casual approach is probably the result of years of practice and slower paintings. When I started, I tried to emulated your speed and it often looked awkward and messy. After watching some of the slower methodical approaches from other youtubers, I was able to combine your eye and energy with the fundamentals. I hope one day you'll make a more foundational course with watercolor especially wth how you use gouache. Once again, Thank you for your passion and energy!
If any inspiring Marco Followers are reading this, don't get discouraged! I highly Recommend Mind of the Watercolor to help get your fundamentals in.
Please, please, please continue the character design series, the first two were so helpful and I can't wait to learn more.
I am trying my best to have Part 3 out at the end of April. Fingers crossed!
Found your page like 10 mins ago. I live to paint but i feel like the stuff you are saying and the way you make it look so easy is wayyyyy out of my league. But looking forward to getting there one day.
Gotta like the heck out of this video for the art hack xD
Lindo!!♡
I wanted to do this so bad this summer hahaha travel to a nice place, take photos for future drawings, draw from life with the ipad and just draw with this nice palm tree beach vibe :D but iam i little bit afraid of travelling alone and yeah corona...
old swim shorts/berms as a cleaning rag is such a cool idea! wow! thank you for sharing : ) joseph@singapore
This was excellent!
Thanks as always, Kyle!
lol I do the same with my pants, that's why I almost have no non-paint stained clotches to wear ToT xD
Great lessons..thank you sir 🧡🧡🧡A channel worth subscribing
Thanks a lot!
Nice journaling man ...
This is a great video. Already shared it with some people that have been flirting with doing this. THANKS, MARCO!
Hey Carlos - thanks a lot, man!
Just this week I bought a music stand for this exact purpose. And today I went somewhere beautiful....and forgot it at home.
1:48 Marco Bucci kicking up new flavor in ya ear
I love this! I can never stand and paint.............
Very convenient tool. The most convenient tool is a good tool. You draw well. I am doing the same.
Marco, Etchr Lab should give you a code to use for your subscribers, so that you could benefit from recommending them - I just bought the slate mini thanks to your recommendation and can't wait to use it for outdoors painting this summer. Your work is very appreciated 😍
awesome video, as a beginner i cannot help but get caught up in trying to get every detail, so i get very overwhelmed and give up before i even got a chance to start. so, thank you for showing that we are free to omit loads of stuff or modify what we see to suit our composition, that is really helpful :D
however, please, PLEASE tell me you don't go swimming in those shorts covered in paint?! paint is often toxic, as i'm sure you know, and that would hurt the marine life.
Dame ur so talented sir,,
Oooh this is nice! I’m going on a holiday soon so I really enjoyed your tips. I hope to try and do those palm trees like you did. That was something new I learned! Yay😄 thanks for sharing! I really like the beach painting🥰
overboard, nice
inspiring ..
Travel journaling! Marco, please travel with tablet once and show us the process in Procreate! Thanks!
So surprising to see this voice coming out of a person... It's so omnipotent narrator
That was hella inspiring in many aspects!! Damn now I kinda long for summer to come 😅
I hate summer =_=
It's way too hot
@@arindommazumdar371 unless there's a beach near by , it can be really " ugh "
@@sketchios5158 Ikr?
Urgh I want to go to a beeeaach..
Harika; Çok şey öğreniyorum minnettarım.
Visiting this video again after a year, and commenting with the hopes that you will see this comment and post more videos from your art journal!
This is a really cool insight into doing art while traveling! Assuming things are safe I'm hoping to travel to italy to do some art studying myself this summer after graduating, but I've never done a lot of plain air stuff. (Being a digital artist & animator n such). I love having a bit of insight into how you pick your compositions as well. ^^
Is there a particular reason you go with gauche/watercolor over sketching with dry materials like pencil or charcoal? Or is it just a medium you like working in?
I really love your videos and this is no exception. How long did you spend on your sketch, and then the painting as a whole? Do you put a time constraint on yourself to make yourself work faster? Keep the videos coming!
Thanks! I don't instill any time constraints ... though when I spend longer than 20 mins on one of these sketches it's a good indicator that I'm overworking it, or not capturing it. The actual pencil-sketch part takes less than a minute. It's so loose that I wouldn't even call it a drawing - just a placeholder thingy I can vaguely understand. That's only because I like to figure out almost all the important stuff in the painting phase!
Hi! I just discovered your channel and love your plein air painting tutorials. May I ask how you are filming the process? Is it someone helping you or is there something attached to your shoulder or perhaps a tripod? Would love to know as I am trying to work this out to start filming my outdoor sketching!! Thanks :)
hi Marco,
How is it going? Thank you for all the useful content on your channel. Could you please point me to the brand of the "$3 1/2 brush" that you use in some of your videos? I'm in need for a 1/2 brush and would like to give that a try. If it is good enough for you must be good enough for me.
Didn't know that you too wiped your paintbrush on your pants! This is a wonderful coincidence; it appears that wiping paintbrushes on clothes is a behaviour that naturally evolves amongst outdoor watercolour painters.
My first first, im a big boi
Do you have any video about how you paint? Some tips trick or else?
How did you use this travel journal or any travel journal to complete a finished painting? I like the trip out but I never understood the practical use of this kind of exercise.
Any chance for more watercolour vids?
What was the 1 second of sampled hip-hop rap song near end of video?
Wait, you can actually mix watercolors and gouache? Whaaaaa?
sure can!
What is the brand of that white guoache paint?
