    My students start off on newsprint so they can practice the basic strokes without feeling they are 'wasting' paper. I do encourage them to move to practice rolls of (machine made) rice paper (Moon Palace, for instance) fairly quickly because they need to get used to the absorbency of rice paper. Not only that, but it is sad to create a good painting on newsprint, knowing that the paper will not last. I always practice on good, handmade rice paper for this reason.

    Good morning Virginia.
    Sorry for the bad english.
    I really like your way of painting, classic and precise and for me you are a wonderful example to learn this art.
    Can you help me find the right brushes or brushes? I do not know how to find them, and what name they have. Paper is also a problem.
    For the colors I found only those Marie's
    It's really important for me.Congratulations for your fantastic work
    A hug.

    Thank you so much for sharing! Very nice painting! Is it possible to share with us your technique to control the amount of water on that brush when you draw the rock?

    • @VirginiaLloydDavies
      @VirginiaLloydDavies  Před 7 lety

      Thanks for your comment, Amber. The joke in the Chinese painting world is that "too much water on the brush" and "not enough water on the brush" are the only problems you need to solve. It depends on your paper. Thicker paper will prevent bleeding (double xuan, for instance). Also, load your brush with grey and black and test it on scrap paper before attempting your rock. Good luck! My blog at joyfulbrush has more tips on how to use the brushes and select the paper.

    • @VirginiaLloydDavies
      @VirginiaLloydDavies  Před 10 lety +2

      I order most of my brushes from oriental art supply or blue heron arts. Their brushes are good quality and they explain the 'soft' and 'hard' brushes. They are all handmade & they don't have numbers on them. For bamboo and leaves I would recommend the bamboo/orchid brush, which is hard bristle. For flowers, a 'basic soft' or 'flow' brush works well. If you go to my facebook painting page, which is VirginiaLloydDavies, you'll see what I'm working on every week. I usually mention what brushes and papers I am using.

  • @lucio9088

    I see the ink dry immediately. How is possible?

    • @VirginiaLloydDavies
      @VirginiaLloydDavies  Před 3 lety +1

      Actually it is still wet in the painting. It takes just a few minutes to dry. Because the paper is "raw", not sized, the colors and the ink penetrate the paper.

  • @lucio9088
    @lucio9088 Před 3 lety

    The paper is wet?

    • @VirginiaLloydDavies

      No, the paper is not wet when painting flowers. You can read more about when to wet the paper (usually when painting mist and clouds) in my book. Enjoy!

      Hello Gerardo! Thanks for commenting. I am using small soft and small hard bristle Chinese bamboo brushes for the flowers. I usually switch to a large hard bristle brush for the leaves. You can find an excellent selection on the web at orientalartsupply and blueheronarts. There are also several China-based and Hong Kong-based suppliers.
