    God has sent you to me! My husband got Covid. I found one of your videos and was so excited. I cleared out a room, bought supplies, and then I got sick. My husband passed away almost two weeks ago and I am recovering. Looking forward to spending time with you painting has given me something to look forward to!!!! And videos to enjoy in the meantime. You are so wonderful at teaching not to be intimidated. I am going for it and I can't wait! I love colors!!!!!!!! Ty so much, Debi

    You are such an excellent teacher. I cant tell you how much help it is that you explain the most basic steps. The “clean off your brush and dry with paper towel and THEN go into your wash” changed my life. This is an excellent series. I’m so proud I found you.

      @maryhill7999 Před 3 lety +1

    YOUR thoughtful for beginners.

    I love your channel. I am learning so much. And the Archers paper makes ALL the difference in the world. When I bought that paper it changed how my flowers turned out so much.I love your teaching skills and watercolor has really helped with my anxiety and pain level. I get lost in learning and accomplishing. Thankyou for your channel.

    @Marie-D. Před 3 lety +3

    I just wanted to drop a line to thank you so much. Ive always wanted to try water color because of it's beauty, but it wasnt't until the end of last year when I came across one of your videos that I said, I am going to try it! So around Christmas time I bought a few inexpensive supplies to begin and today I started watching your Learning To Paint videos. I am super excited. Thank you again.

  • @15Montrano
    @15Montrano Před 3 lety +6

    These tips are so helpful. Washing and drying brush before applying the new color on paper, now that explains a lot! Love your teaching style. It’s very approachable, broken down so that every detail can be learned. I appreciate you taking the time to do it slowly, bc all of us beginners are like kindergarteners in this area. Since you were a teacher to little ones you have the perfect teaching style. You are a gifted artist too. I heard you- practice! So I am. A little doodle at least each day. My art is improving with practice and your tips. You are my favorite creative!

    Terrific video. I’ve learned a lot from other YT watercolor artists, but this was the first that broke it down in a way that a complete beginner like me can understand. My watercolors are arriving in a few days, and I can’t wait to try these drills.

    Thank you so much Emma! I have taken a few online art courses, which I really loved watching, but when it came to actually painting things myself I was kind of stuck on where and how to start...supplies, techniques, being patient with myself (somewhat of a perfectionist!) You are such a gift! I really want to learn watercolour and now I think I will have a good chance at making some progress! I have watched your first 2 videos tonight & look forward to beginning to practice, and then watching and learning more!

  • @NaomiCoutureArt
    @NaomiCoutureArt Před 3 lety +4

    This is perfect for beginners to practice. I have to say one of my favorite ways to paint is wet on wet and just letting the colors do their own thing, you get something different each time.

    I use a little pipette to drop one or 2 drops of water instead of a brush. I gives me more control than spraying and the brush.
