My Aunt, who was an artist/crafter gave me some advice from her instructor; he said your best work is what you throw in the garbage because it's what you have learned from.
thats such a fresh take ❤
Love this!!!
Thank you for sharing that bit of advice truly inspiring.😊👍
You should do a tea set or a vase with this colour... you'll find yourself admiring it for days..
I have been watching you since your first baby used to sit on your lap so I’ve seen you come a long way. Your teaching methods are excellent and you seem so much more happy and self confident. Keep up the good work. You’re beautiful…..
Not to mention your work.
I struggle a lot with controlling my brush and making leafs. And just painting florals in general...
Love the flowers but that pattern is awesome it looks so organic. Your teaching methods just make me happy.
Amazing how beautiful a monochrome painting can be. The simplicity of it, combined with that beautiful color and the depth from so many values is calming, yet gorgeous at the same time. Love it! Going to watch again and try it. Thanks for all your great totorials.
Emma, I discovered you at the beginning of my watercolor journey in 2020. This past year I’ve had some health issues so I’ve not been on here. It was so exciting to see your growth, not only in painting, but in confidence. I thoroughly appreciate how you teach and I enjoy watching and listening to your insight. Thank you for what you do.
You are an amazing teacher who explains things so well. I have been about to give up....after going down the youtube rabbit hole and watching so many how-to videos. Thank you.
Such a great monochromatic painting. And the color is amazing…. Used by Michelangelo to paint his angels and Johannes Vermeer to paint a scarf on The Girl with a Pearl Earring, not to mention many other artists throughout the art history.
It definitely is a stunning colour, great tutorial too!
I was planning to redo a monochrome landscape that I have already done in paynes gray in a completely different colour, just deciding on which colour 🤔
My sister sent me ypur book, and some water colors. I cant wait to learn all that i can! I always loved to draw and paint.
Would love to learn how to do that pattern as well. So interesting 🎉
Hello from Newmarket 🙂 I subscribed to your channel a year ago, but only recently learned you're near by in Toronto area.
This is a very good lesson and your approach to teaching it is so helpful! I plan to reference this again and again. Thank you, Emma!
I love the blue. Like Delft china. Thank you Emma Jane. Great tip on looking at saturation for variation. Thanks.
Doing a monochrome study is a really great idea and helps to identify value in colors. Having the right color values all throughout the piece can make all the difference in a whether your art is good or great. 👍
Beautiful blue flowers. Thankyou for sharing about value this has been really helpful, and using your phone to see if you have enough value in your painting is really good. Love this video xxx
Watch you often w/o commenting! This is great
What an awesome lesson Emma! And that color is gorgeous! Thanks so much!🥰
Very nice work ❤
Very informative and helpful. Thankyou very much. Such a lovely piece.
Excellent lesson, Emma! I so appreciate ALL the detailed steps that I think about. You are amazing!!❤
Excellent! Thank you for your teaching and modeling what you show us.
Thank you so much. I get chills when watching videos like this. Your explanation is crystal clear
That feeling you get when it comes to water/paint in your brush is artistic intuition and you have developed or were born with good artistic intuition. You make painting look so easy! Emma, I have a problem “dabbing” or wiping my brush off onto a paper towel for fear of “ wasting “ my expensive, precious paint. I know that this fear I have is a culprit for unneeded mistakes and I feel it’s holding me back. Any sage advice from you or your viewers on how to get over this “ fear of product waste” that I have?
Absolutely beautiful. I always learn something new from every video. Thank you for sharing your talent with us.
So true about just experimenting! I discovered the 3/8" dagger striper brush, I love it!!! Especially holding it "upside down"!!
Thank you! What a great way to learn water control!!
Will have to give this a try tomorrow. Don’t have lapses but have Windsor blue
It was so much fun watching you paint with your son on the other video. He's quite a little artist.❤🦋
Love the tip of using your phone 🎉 thank you
So great thanks for this video! I love learning from you. The only thing I will admit that sometimes annoys me is that in using all these incredible products, you sometimes forget that others are painting along with you and don’t have all the resources you do. It would be so helpful to simply add a line about what color you might use if don’t have this very rare, special pigment in your beginners palette. But overall, great experience!
Love what you are painting. ❤❤❤
Thank you so much for this very interesting tutorial, very helpful and absolutely beautiful 😍🙏
That was so relaxing, seeing you paint....thanks a lot
Great tutorial! My favorite color has always been light blue. Mr. Harding has definitely given that color new meaning! Guess what? Is going to be the next color on my palette?
Your painting is beautiful! Thanx for sharing the gorgeous paint!
Absolutely beautiful as always! Thank you for sharing!
I love the colors
I so needed this, super helpful!! You are just the best teacher out there!!
This is beautiful and I love the color! Thanks Emma 😊❤
You make it look so easy. ❤
Beautifully Taught !
Thankyou! Well explained and demonstrated. Love love love the colour 😍
Stunning work, thanks for sharing ❤
I liked the light color palette and the corner composition! I am from Oklahoma, USA. Love your videos. Been a fan for a few years now. 😊
This is an excellent value study! Thank you.
Excellent video, very helpful! You are a wonderful teacher. Thank you Emma! 😊
Very helpful tips on issues I’ve been struggling with.
Thanks soooo much for this technique video!!! a subtle skill we need!!!
Such a great idea! I never looked at it that way before. It might help me learn to control my intensity impulse!
Great job.
Very helpful
Great lesson, thank you! ❤
Thank you!
Thank you, that was very helpful.
Very helpful thank you!
Thank you❤️
Hullo Emma, This is a sweet video with plenty of information for everyone! Thanks again for sharing your expertise and knowledge with us.
Love your videos! Just wanted to tell you how to pronounce the color since I'm a speech pathologist and I can't resist. You said Lapis correctly, but the next word is laz- (like "has"), u- (like "you"), li- (like "lie"). Hope that helps! Your videos really help me as an artist. 💓
As a deaf artist who doesn’t get to speak english much in a mainly french community, it’s a pretty useful comment for me, thanks! I can’t hear how she pronounced it but maybe she pronounced it in french?
Hot tip - a terry cloth is a sustainable alternative to using paper towel to blot!
So pretty!!
this is so good ☺☺
That is amazing
I am a photorealistic animal portraiture artist with pencils. However recently I have expanded my journey into watercolor because I've wanted to do them for so many years. Sadly I only have a very tiny selection of professional colors. My finances just are not there because I'm disabled. I am so wanting a lapis lazuli and I'm wondering if the Michael Harding is worth the cost versus other lapis lazulis? It's something I would have to save up for but it is a color that I think would greatly benefit me for backgrounds in my animal portraits.
Emma, your flowers are so pretty!
I love this! You are such an excellent instructor!! ❤
I've been learning from you since 2021; I'm definitely past the beginner stage, but this love doing practice like this with you!! I do love watercolor and paint daily; but what is the next step in learning? I feel like I want to paint a pretty floral piece, but I get hung-up on the design and composition. I can come up with limited color palettes and have good watercolor control and can paint florals quit well. But now matter how much I research composition. I feel stuck almost like I'm at the beginning again. It's like a gap in learning I can't figure out. I'm very visual and learn by seeing and watching someone do the thing. Do have any suggestions or can you do more videos on composition and design. I know you have do a few in the past and you target beginners, but I love your teaching style so I would love it from you!
Cool exercise! I love your vibe and the „experimental“ method that you recommend.
Where is your sketchbook from? ❤
Noah was adorable on the livestream. Just so sweet and cute just like my grandkids are - occasionally ☺️ 😆
That is such a beautiful color! Emma, does Winsor & Newton have a color that might be similar to this color? Thanks. 😊
It is so beautiful ❤
I did this exercise. Honestly, it went better that I expected.
Wish I could figure out how to comment with a picture. Is that even possible on YT?
What brand of paintbrushes are these? Great tips!
Any other color could you recommend
I’m wearing a lapis lazuli bracelet right now!! It’s the color associated with Archangel Michael.
Are you self taught? Regardless, I’d say it’s born-in anyway! Beautiful. Thank you!!
Please explain the wasting of paint, by washing some of it off in water? Why not just get less paint on brush?
How does a beginner know what details to add after it's dry? When watching you, I can definitely see the difference, but is there a checklist for Beginners to know what to look for?
Hmm good question. For the details I like to add is more depth to the centre of flowers. I feel like that is what makes it stand out the most. Then additional shadows and such to other parts of the petals and leaves.
Thank you so much for answering. I appreciate your feedback. I just tried this one. .... .... ugh.. ... .. .... I think I want to be successful without the practice. Haha. I do love your tutorials. Thank you.
Is this a new word in painting - Value
Many people have a difficult time pronouncing Lazuli. . It is pronounced la-zu-lee (with accent on the 'la'), but you don't have to say this word. Just say Lapis and everyone knows that it's Lapis Lazuli 😜. However you pronounce it, you paint very well with it and that's all that matters.
Emma this floral is beautiful as your florals always are. Thank you!😊
💖
You said Aunt then you said he said . Do you mean she said
I just want to advise on how to pronounce Lapis Lazuli. I always knew it as Lapis LAZ U LIE. I hope you don’t mind this as 😅I really like watching your videos and don’t want you to think I’m criticising. You have taught me a lot 😊
lol thank you! I actually looked up how to pronounce it and kept getting different pronunciations so I just went with one haha. I do appreciate it :)
No problem and again thank you for all the help and advice.. :)
Thank you so much. I get chills when watching videos like this. Your explanation is crystal clear
Great job.
Very helpful
