It was mostly Turquoise Rose mist from White Night (I am currently testing White Nights) and mixed with a bit of Sepia and Ultramarine at the bottom.

Many thanks

Thank you! No, not at all. It's just an Australian landscape in Victoria, the colors here are very different to the rest of the world. It becomes a little said that a painting of an Australian landscape becomes instantly associated with JZ. Yes, he is well known online, but If you look at other Australian painters, who is more modest with their social media presence, yet really great, they all look similar just because of the "Australia specific" colors. The type of trees and foliage - Australian gum trees with warm grey or cool grey messy foliage; the land - grey/green/yellow with pinkish/brownish hues, etc. Colors evoke emotions, this is the first thing we respond to. It's normal. So, no :), it's inspired by the landscape itself. Ill try to put together a video to give a shout-out to Australian painters, we are so fortunate here with an amazing quality of artists all in one spot and I feel like they need to be more recognized.

@@nvfineartstudio7296 Thanks for the reply. I'm quite new to painting and watercolor, so in my naivete, I suppose it's not surprising that I would reference those with a large presence. All that said, I didn't know this was an Australian landscape, but all of what you said makes sense. I love the contrast between the muted and suggestive background with the loose thickly painted gum trees. The light and atmosphere is beautiful, and I feel that these types of Australian landscapes lend themselves very well to watercolor. That would be great if you highlighted more Australian artists and artwork. I look forward to learning them!

Yes, good spotting! Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to you too!

I'm so glad you found it helpful!

It's a FUUMUUI Woolf brush, I have a discount code Nina20 (20%off). They natural mop (black handle with a ball point on the end of the handle) is also soft, softer then a typical mop brush, such as Escoda Aquario Gold. The price is great too.

Thank you! Cheers!

Thank you! So glad to hear this!

You’re very welcome!

Thanks! It takes time but the results are worth it, watercolor painting is such a joy and takes you mind away from things :)

Obrigada! I hope you try it!

Not yet! But I can make one.

Thanks!!

You're very welcome!

Thank you so much for letting me know! I didn't know. Have to try the tubes. I've got a sketch book from Paul Rubens, but haven't used it yet. I'm going on holidays for a week I think it's a good opportunity to try it :)
