      I'm already a member of Skillshare but don't use it that much. I'll start spending more time there. I've been doing the Jane Blundell "Mastering Watercolor" class and have painted 8 triads thus far and discovered there are thousands of possibilities. It's amazing how the mood changes dramatically depending on the triad you use. For instance, the Earth Triad of Goethite, Cerulean, and Indian Red is completely different than the Bright Triad of Hansa Yellow Med, Ultra Blue, and Pyrrol Scarlet. The more I've learned about pigments, the more fine tuning I've been able to do with my own triads. Once I discovered WN Indian Red was transparent, I decided to replace the DS version in my palette. I love the transparent colors the best.
      Your lessons are amazing, Louise. The most amazing watercolor instructors are from Australia! Did you ever think of that? Thank you!

    @biancakuchel9725 Před 3 lety +2

    Thanks for this video. Very useful info. A while back you were looking for skin tone colours. I thought you may like to know that a triad of Winsor yellow, Windsor red and Windsor blue green shade (or prussian blue for more intense blue) are a great triad for skin tone esp as the blue makes nice clean shadows you can tilt toward warm or cool (Yong Chen uses these for many of his portraits). Hopefully it works for you if you give it a try.

    beautiful. (you sometimes say to some of your paintings - esp. the older ones - overworked and such. and, although I can see what you mean, I still find them great. because they look like expert work. the precision. and, yes, I might not want to hang those on the walls - rather the other, rather loose ones, if they were in a book, I would flip through it from time to time, just to see, the greate pictures of animals and botanicals).

      @nysaea Před 2 lety

      In case this is still of interest, I personally use a triadic palette that is a pretty faithful watercolor set of CMYK:
      - 653 transparent yellow (Windsor & Newton)
      - 545 quinacridone magenta (Windsor & Newton)
      - 326 phtalocyanine blue (Sennelier)
      + a bit of black for convenience
      I own other colors but honestly rarely ever feel the need to reach for any of them, except my neons because... well, neons are fun :D

I need to get that size brush you you use…it can be surprisingly delicate… it matters what your lighting is when you put down water 💦 lol…sometimes I can’t see it…🧐 I’m watching this through…I want to pick my own leaves….so when your mixing, do you dab the color off when you add your color? 🙏🏽🙋🏻‍♀️👍🏽Mia

    Wonderful tutorial, thank you. Can I ask, when mixing the green you say you used Winsor Lemon? Is this a slip of the tongue please? Did you use Winsor Lemon or Winsor Yellow please? Also interested in why you chose Winsor Blue red shade over Winsor Blue Green Shade please?

    • @LouiseDeMasi
      @LouiseDeMasi  Před 3 lety +1

      Whoops- sorry Angela. It was Winsor Yellow that I used on this painting. I use a lot of Winsor Lemon so it was a slip of the tongue. I only have Winsor Blue Red shade so that's why I used it.

    @sixtimesnine9170 Před 11 měsíci

    I know this is an old video so this comment may go unanswered, but I was watching another video where you show how to prevent water lines by re-wetting the entire painted area. Does the technique shown early in this video, where you wet half the leaf but then paint short of that whole wet section, leaving a buffer wet area, prevent the water lines in this case? So the wet buffer will not create a water line because the yellow paint underneath is already set, and because no new paint is being applied to that area directly, a water line won’t form?
