Hey everyone! Sorry for the delayed upload, but life happened and I had to take some time off to deal with things! I really hope you enjoy this video because sooo many of you guys requested videos about watercolor pencils! Let me know if you want to see more videos like that and what you struggle with when it comes to using watercolor pencils!
1st to reply,,,yayyyyy😎😎😎😎
makoccino dont stress too much.. and dont worry about us your health is more important mako❤
Armyyyy?!!!😄😄😄
it is like it is ayeeee😂
How to make pictures realistic with watercolor pencils. .🙁#makoficationsquad
I never even thought about using watercolour pencils like a pallette, that's a much better idea! 😅
I didn't thought either it's a great idea ✨
WOOF THE FREAK?! I didn't know you can use them as a palette! Thx for the tutorial!
True
So for the people that are thinking that they did it the wrong way. You didn't. The original way is coloring with pencils first and then going on top with water. You can obviously just use it like this. It's just a different technique. But I actually think that it kinda ruins the reason why you would even use watercolor pencils. I think it's best to use both techniques but not just painting alone. Just use watercolor if you are only using them as normal watercolor.
You use watercolor pencils to use them as pencils. Not as paint. (only). It's a mix, I use them to give the things that I don't want smooth some texture.
Yes there are ton of different ways how to use watercolor pencils! I just got a lot of requests about watercolor pencils because not everyone has watercolors, so I decided to share a fun and easy way how to get most out of your watercolor pencils :)
I used watercolors pencils because its cheaper XD
We use watercolor pencils because we are part of the broke family
I use watercolor pencils because they are much more portable for me, because I am a messy person.
there is no right or wrong way to use a medium, how does using it as paint "ruins the reason to even use watercolor pencils"? in the end they are pigments too (in a pencil) just as the standard watercolors you get in pans or tubes. Also people on a budget will go for pencils because pans & tubes are more expensive, and they get to experience (not the real experience but some sort of introduction to it) the watercoloring feeling with the technique shown on video. If they love it they could then move on to watercolor pans. It's a sort of affordable introduction to the world of watercoloring and i can't see why you see it as wrong really.
i imagine this woman is the person in the 24/7 lofi hip hop beats to chill and study
I totally understand why... It's so relaxing to see her work❤️
Wait... this is how your supposed to use them? I've always been coloring the entire picture then putting water on top. XD
You can do both ways! There are different techniques and I liked this one to create the smooth texture!
Honestly that’s what I thought you were supposed to do that
Me too! I dont know why i did that too.
Mandee Dong same
I did tat too
Oh my god
This is amazing
I used this technique (different painting though) and won an art competition
You are half of the reason
I love you
I liked and subbed
I’m in shock
I will never use another technique again
_i love you_
*yes*
(Also I have a set of Faber-Castell I love them)
Uh it is cool to use. But to never use another technique? That's a harmful thought for an artist to have. Keep your mind open. Just like you did when you found this video/technique
Omg cool! Sometimes i also feel like drawing with watercolor pencils in some competition but afraid that i will ruin it and fail:(
The clouds in the second frame are so gorgeous - I couldn't stop looking at them!
I LOVE this video! I bought watercolor pencils for the fun of it but am pretty clueless. Your video was sooo easy to understand, love your style too. I’d take any “new to this” videos you’d like to make. Thx!
Oh my god- Your way is so much easier. 😂😂 I’ve literally been dipping my brush onto my watercolour pencils the whole time. 🤣
Thank you so much for the lesson and especially for your personal comments.
Her voice is so calming and sweet that I just start smiling and these technics are awesome, gonna try it tomorrow on the go💓
I BOUGHT WATERCOLOR PENCILS BECAUSE OF THIS VIDEO! THANKYOUU THIS WOULD BE VERY HELPFUL TO BEGINNER LIKE ME ;)
It's so beautiful I am speechless with the result
Nice to see some variation as to how the pencils can be used other than the standard; just draw & add water
THANK U SO MUCH I FINALLY KNOW HOW TO USE IT BETTER.
Thank you for teaching me the proper way to use watercolor pencils
My mom bought some for me 10 years ago.I wasn't sure how to use them.I haven't done traditional art in YEARS but always loved watercolor.I might get back into attempting to paint.
This is amazing! I love it! I’ve had watercolour pencils for two years but have never known how to use them well. Thank you!
Interesting! Most people I’ve watched draw as if they were using normal color pencils, then use a brush to blend. I didn’t know people draw the colors on the side & use it like normal water color painting! That’s cool, also you’re good at painting!
I love how you showed different techniques, more watercolor pencil tutorials please! 😁
as a beginner, i don't have a lot of great tools yet. but i did buy myself a pack of quality watercolor pencils because an advertisement of them looked so amazing. and then i used them twice and gave up. i am SOOOOO happy to see this example of how i can basically use them now in place of the better paint i have not yet talked myself into buying. thanks again!!!
That's so beautiful, I never thought of making a palet with watercolor pencils. I subscribed to see more, thank you!
Wow! There are so many ways to use water color pencils. Can’t wait to experiment different ways in my book I bought 🧡
Wow! I never knew this type of color pencils. Interesting way to make art.
Have a great day :)
I've been using my watercolour pencils wrong all my life...definitely gonna be trying these techniques!
What a good technique!
Thanks for learning me this ✨
"Thanks for teaching me this!" :)

I wasn't expecting such vibrant colours to be possible when you water down watercolour pencils this much but these are super pretty. These pencils are way more versatile than I thought.
Just bought a set of watercolor pencils...m glad I clicked this when I was looking for a tutorial on watercolor pencils! It's subtle but yet so beautiful!
I use watercolor pencils as dry pencils and then blend it out with a wet brush. But your method is more convenient and amazing. Keep making more videos like this ❤❤ #makoficationsquad
I own that watercolor color pencils for so long! I am so lucky to have found this video and discovered techniques to use it. 😭
First time I've found your videos -- I'm very impressed! This is perfect for a pocket travel-set. Thank you for sharing.
thank you,
i love pink fluffy clouds
Thank you so much about water color pencils
Brilliant! Thank You, im new to watercolour pencils and hadn't thought of using them like this. Off now to bingewatch all your other videos!....
When I first saw the title, I wondered that I'd there were some brand called "Watercolour pencils" 😂
BTW, really creative ideas! 😍
Hahhaah we're getting to learn so much here. I too didn't know.
I got some as an eid present. Its so weird to use.
Oh my word! You just opened a whole new world for me! I have them but never really used them because......hmm, I never realized the versatility of watercolor pencil, just thought they where more water soluble colored pencils, 🤷🏻♀️ lol
Your videos are AMAZING and also really helpful, also you are also one of the best artist I have ever seen. #makoficationsquad
aww you are too sweet
You are a true artist ...no special colours no extra brushes...no waste of paper.......awesome sense of using color.....and good imaginations 😘😘😘😘😘😘😘😘😘😘
Thank u for introducing me to watercolor!!
Because of you I love watercolor today .
You have taught me so many techniques!
Watercolor is just so relaxing 😆😆😆
#makoficationsquad
Yayy!
Really!!!! That's what I was thinking!😉😉😉
The tissue paper was a stroke of a genius!! 😉😉😊
Can we use just watercolours paints instead of watercolour pencils? #makoficationsquad
Of course!
I followed some of your how to's and now my grandma will get some new paintings from me x)
Wow, it's definitely useful! I didn't know those technics)
#makoficationsquad
I really like the texture that water color pencils can make
#makoficationsquad
This was so beautiful! I hadn't really given much thought to watercolor pencils. Admittedly they seemed to me at first glance like they were intended for those uncomfortable with paints to introduce them to the medium though a familiar tool rather than as their own wet media with their own strengths, and so I'd been decidedly avoiding them as a beginning for worry of becoming reliant on the familiarity. I can imagine that might still be something to be mindful of, but this video really demonstrates the unique touch they can add to the paintings, particularly in the way of the sort of grainy, dotty texture they add. In a weird way, it sorta reminds me of Yoshi's Island, just in terms of the softness and the pop of the textures. Delightful! :>
You have saved my day!! I struggled to paint with these pencils (I have the same set you have) by applying the dry pencil to my paper. Then you said "create a palette", the skies opened and I swear I heard angels! :) Thank you so much.
I never imagine I could make a palette with watercolour pencils! #makoficationsquad
so this is how watercolor pencil supposed to use! finally i can start drawing too. falling in love after 10seconds of your videos started and i subscribed. i love you!!

your paintings are so pretty and dreamy 💖😍💕 thank you for sharing your techniques! i just got a set of cheap watercolor pencils to play around with
Wow! I usual color the whole picture with pencel and then use q tips to put water over the picture. But this is a great idea!
Thanks for this video! It really helped me! I have watercolor pencils,but I didn't know how to use them,
PD:your logic at the end is...unique...
I like it
Thank you so much for this video! I just started using watercolor pencils and wasn't sure if all the application techniques till now.
I really loved the video I'll definitely buy watercolor pencils!!! Love you Mako 💕 #makoficationsquad
seriously, finding your art journal series is really therapeutic for me. also helping me in starting watercolor painting.
#makoficationsquad Thank you so much mako for making videos like this 😍 Your videos always motivate me everytime I feel down about the outcomes of my artworks 😂😍 Please continue doing videos like this. More power to you 😘
awww
I've never seen watercolours used this way I've always used them as pencils on wet paper, this technique looks like fun
#makoficationsquad
So EARLYY❤😍
Ok. Now I know how to use my colored pencils, instead of just filling in and watering down! I am excited. Thanks. More?
After watching this, I added the watercolor pencils to my shopping list 😂
You n your videos r soo cool! I really love it.. 😍
Amazing video :) I love this watercolor pencils from Faber Castell!
I can give you one more tip how to use these pencils.
Lets say you have a pallet be it plastic or porcelan and so on, then you take your water color pencil and a wet brush. If you rub your brust against the tip of the pencil you can drip the color-water mix directly into the pallet and you can use it like you would use watercolor.
You are always my inspiration to keep drawing no matter how skilled I am!!
Thanks for another awesome video Mako, I have a bunch of watercolor pencils and now I know how to use them!! 👭👍👌👏
Just yesterday I came across watercolor pencils and resisted the temptation to buy those because I don't know how to use them ....I'll go and buy them 😸😸😸😸 Thank you Mako ❤❤😘😘😘
When study stops you from being early on mako's video😒btw are there more house decor/moving vlog types of videos coming?(just curious)lots of love from Pakistan 💚❤👼😙😘😚😻
There will be, once I do something new 🙈
makoccino 💚💖
Thank you, this made me draw a picture with watercolour pencils, and put it on my wall:D
I really appreciate this tutorial. Now that I know how to use watercolor pencils, I feel stupid for letting them break and losing some colors without even caring. TuT
I was a beginner in watercolor pencils and I thought you were suppose to draw the whole thing first before activating them with water. And because of that, the whole thing always turns into a huge muddy puddle and I hated it.
I feel like I betrayed my watercolor pencils. T__T Thanks for the tutorial.
I'm shock, now i now how to use this water colored pencil(fabercastell). Thanks for that 😊
#makoficationsquad!!! this was so amazing! you're such a talented artist and I LOVE your work! using the pencils this way is so cool and if you're travelling then you can just draw some colours on a piece of paper and take it with you!❤❤❤👍👍👍💗💗💗😍😍😍💖💖💖
Such cute scenes. I’ve been wanting to try my watercolor pencils again.
Oh, not sure if anyone mentioned it already, but if you’re looking for a more permanent, reusable palette for your watercolor pencils (instead of using paper), try looking on Amazon for the Caran D’ache Palette Aquarelle. One side is rough for pencils and the other side is smooth for paints
Usually in watercolor pencils, they say that u should dip water on the tip of the pencil
great idea make your own pallett. When me and my siblings were little we used to dip the watercolor pencils in water and the try to color with them
This kinda blew my mind so mutch, I can't even...
Thank you so much for making this video it helped me so much! This is the first time I used water colouring pencils and I never realised how wonderful this piece of art is!
Hey there I just found your channel and I love it, I just subscribed🙋🏾💙💚💕💗💜💓❤️🦋
aww thank you for subscribing!
WHY IS THIS WOMAN PERFECT
#MAKOFICATIONSQUAD
This is genious... Idk how nobody ever makes videos about this. I think videos like this is what makes you a good CZcamsr / Artist. I'll try this technique one day. Thank you😊
1st
I have been struggling to learn how to use my watercolour pencils, and after watching your video I feel like I can actually start to experiment with them! Thank you so much for sharing!
I lalalalalalalalalala Love you! you make painting easier!i enjoy watching your creative videos! I could say 1000,000,000 I like about you. You make my day shine and i luv your drawings! I wish i could be like you because i love your personality! May i join your Give away?
i draw more with graphite and charcoal but i am going to add some colour on my paintings . Great tutorial and love your artwork so dreamy !!!
Maybe I just have really cheap watercolour pencils (I probably do), but every time I use them, it looks like a cool watercolour picture until it dries. Then it looks like a warped regular coloured pencil picture. You can see every pencil stroke. Of course, I've never used them like this... Anyone else have that problem, and if so, do I just need better pencils or what?
It sounds like a problem with the paper
@@KevinNguyen-te5cm yep definitely
Hi, I really like how you explain things. I don’t feel rushed or under qualified to even try. Thank you for dedicating your time to teaching.
Omg I also have faber castel watercolor pencils ! 😂😂😂 #makoficationsquad
Yay!
Fluffkin Kitty yah.. Me 2 but i have the smaller version ;-;
Avril Kawaii same I also have the little ones I don't have the moneyz
makoccino Im so excited to try this tutorial 😂💕
Fluffkin Kitty the pencils are so pigmented there's so many shades you can make mixing them it's why I love them so much ❤️
Wooooow! I love my watercolour pencils, because I am not yet comfortable mit watercolours BUT I never thought of using them like this! Thank you so much, I entered a whole new world :D
This is a watercolour PENCIL tutorial... right?
Yes, watercolor PENCIL tutorial.
I'm still using the pencils in the more traditional way for the details of my painting, but you idea made a huge difference in the appearance of the larger areas of my work. I'm painting a friend's home and I don't have a pencil color that matches the paint on her house. Trying to mix the colors on my work as dry pencils just wasn't working.
#notificationsquad 😉
Thank you so much the video. I love Faber Castell watercolour pencils!
By looking at your works, I just realized how untalented I am in painting :(
Skill > Talent. Why don’t people understand this?
so simple! i don't know why i haven't done this!
