Wow, this was absolutely chock full of great tips! All wonderful. Maybe the embossing idea took me by surprise, but so did a number of things. Your video lessons are so compact, yet full of valuable information. Thank you! 👏👏👏👏

[@joannejmskkyvetos3890]

All of them, but I was amazed by the travel pallet. I've just started using my watercolor crayons and this was a thorough explanation for all kinds of tips. Thanks

[@bparsons7337]

I have been totally wasting my pencils! Time to demand more from them.

[@carlasimpson4064]

Wow! So many great ideas! I will need to watch this several times and take notes to remember these wonderful techniques and tips and hints, and whew!

[@elizabeths7285]

This was by far the most comprehensive watercolor pencil video I've seen!

[@IntheStudiowithMicheleWebber]

Yay, thank you!

[@elizabethfischer4369]

Sadly we moved from Oregon to Texas the movers scared us and took all our belongings which sadly contained my dad's antique drafting/art table and cabinet full of enough large poster size sheets of watercolor to last a lifetime. All my treasures I felt as if I had been stabbed in the heart. I sew quilts for Vets and babies at life service's organizations. 33 twins size 25 baby quilts plus my personal collection my grandmother, mom and sister had made me. I don't mean to depressed you all. I could not even imagine doing a watercolor out of pure depression. And the through prayer and watching artists 🎨 on utube I felt something I pray for God to carry my pain and He did...you and a few artists have inspired me to start again and move on. I rank you so much for helping in my mourning and healing process!

[@kbearshoney]

I'm so sorry that happened to you. I don't understand meaness like this. 😢

[@wendymorrison8995]

Hello..slthankyou for sharing your story..you are brave and wise to trust God. "He will restore what the locusts have eaten". I bless you with Isaiah 61:1-4 God bless you! I know He will!

[@ChantelleArts]

Great tips! I really need to give watercolour pencils another go 😊

[@stephaniem173]

I have just started painting and try out all your technics but hate to waste expensive watercolour paper. An artist friend suggested that I use plain Postcards which are quite thick paper, they work beautifully... bonus you can buy packs of 100 at the pound shop ( you guessed it ) for a pound. I do all your tricks and tests and add notes about your great ideas... now have my own little pile to keep... easy to store and always ready to refer to... hope this helps your other learners... thank you so much for your easy workable tutorial which you explain so clearly x

[@lorrainevanheteren6115]

You can also use a nail file or emery board for the speckle effect instead of a knife. I’ve used it ver effectively for painting rust

[@IntheStudiowithMicheleWebber]

Clever idea!

[@babawawa1953]

Simply love your videos. I learn tons. I return to them over & over (my 70 year old brain doesn’t seem to retain what it once did) Thank you very, very much.

[@IntheStudiowithMicheleWebber]

Glad you like them!

[@ginette2100]

Love that with just a few circles of watercolor pencils is a fun way to add to sketches on the go.

[@BobA-ez2ue]

Thanks!

[@IntheStudiowithMicheleWebber]

No problem!

[@MbSaidSo]

Can't wait to try the technique on the leaf (so much more natural looking!) and the pocket palette! You convinced me to give another chance to my dormant watercolor pencils!

[@skabettispaghetti5451]

Thank you, thank you! Great tips!

[@janetwoodbrown7174]

Idea for the small travel pallet is terrific!

[@IntheStudiowithMicheleWebber]

Thank you!

[@peachpiano]

Very useful.I think the blending away to fade by brushing water towards the laid down colour was the best tip for me

[@sallyfoley5451]

Thank you Michele, 20 very useful tips! Congratulations on reaching 100,000 subscribers! Very well deserved too.

[@IntheStudiowithMicheleWebber]

Thanks so much! 😊

Thank you so much, Michele, for your expertise, diligence and generousity.

[@IntheStudiowithMicheleWebber]

You are so welcome!

[@debbiebruce6920]

Thanks for all of the great tips. I think my favorite is getting a straight edge with scotch tape.

[@erinblu8551]

Wow, that perfectly faded edge is a game changer! Thank you!

[@janewineinger1569]

Ok, this is the second time I have watched it, and it will take at least 5 more before I absorb it all! GREAT tips!

[@IntheStudiowithMicheleWebber]

You got this!

[@margogeorges1454]

I learn so much from you thank you Michele

[@brittneyhood1887]

I have been looking at different travel palettes for a short trip I will be taking soon, and I never thought of making my own with pencils! Such a great idea, thank you!

[@foxgloved1]

I love the travel palette idea!

[@chrisgregore359]

Hi Michele, I love these tips and tricks. My favorite is the one that fades the color to white by bringing the clear water up to the pigment. That is brilliant.😊 I just recently started using watercolor pencils and one tip I have is to get/buy a very thin cutting mat. It is like the thinnest cutting board ever. I purchased mine on Amazon. Then I cut it into smaller squares, to fit my travel art kit and studio table. When I want to use the pencil like watercolor, I scribble on the slightly textured side of the cutting mat and use the pigment like watercolor. It makes color mixing super easy too. I can clean off the mat and reuse it forever. Thank you again for all the wonderful videos you create. 💝

[@IntheStudiowithMicheleWebber]

That's a great tip and you are very welcome!

[@toddbarton2014]

So helpful, thank you

[@IntheStudiowithMicheleWebber]

Glad it was helpful!

[@delphinewood7519]

The rainbow technique is my favorite. I can see how it can be used in many ways. I also love the world’s tiniest watercolor palette. Thank you!

[@barbdahlen6928]

Loved your travel paint pad tip.

[@angelafeather1301]

I find your videos really Useful. They are clear and concise, i like your videos because you are straight to the point and dont waste time talking about random things, you stick to what you are instructing. It is so helpful and interesting Thank you do much 👍

[@sherrina75]

Absolutely love the tip about making your own travel palette! Thank you!

[@IntheStudiowithMicheleWebber]

You're welcome 🙂

[@annenglish2935]

Hello to our beautiful Michelle in 2023 & congratulations on having 100K subscribers!!! I just made up my mind to buy FC Albrecht Durer watercolor pencils! 36 pan... I bought a few single pencils at Blick thinking it would be enough. You've encouraged me to go ahead after waiting a long time ... that & a gift has made it possible. I loved how rich all the colors were... & also the stencil tool for making a deep groove! Also the wax resist, rainbow and travell pallet... also using just your wet brush and a dab of color swiping on the pencil, without having to open a paint tube! Really, all of your tips are great! I'll be saving this one! You look amazing... God bless you in the New Year, from a grateful California Gramma ❤️

[@IntheStudiowithMicheleWebber]

So glad you enjoyed it Ann ☺️

[@sueshanks9447]

Wow, really liked all the techniques! Especially at the end with travel palette and water pens !

[@IntheStudiowithMicheleWebber]

So glad!

[@cathyclose3698]

Lovely video and very informative and helpful! Thank you!

[@liamwatson5125]

Michele, dear, I love watercolour pencils. I’ve been using them for over 20 years. Yes I always do a colour chart of swatches when I buy a set of watercolour pencils. It helps me decide what colours to use in my picture.

[@barbsterback]

Thank you for the tips! Congratulations on over 100K subscribers!

[@IntheStudiowithMicheleWebber]

Thanks so much!

[@chrispolette8443]

[@IntheStudiowithMicheleWebber]

Great to hear! Thank you!

[@nancydavidson4899]

Enjoyed everything and got a lot of value as always but particularly loved the pocket palette. Brilliant idea!

[@PaulaScardamalia]

So many great tips with watercolor pencils which I love to use. I'm going to have to watch this a couple of times to remember them. And I love the smart travel palette. Would be so useful when you're sitting waiting in the car or you're on a plane or train and don't want to have to worry about spilling water or taking up too much room. It would be easy to clip to your sketchbook on the side that you aren't painting on. And I love the sword and your pointed sense of humor. Thank you, Michele.

[@IntheStudiowithMicheleWebber]

Glad it was helpful! ⚔️

[@zainoesuleman-jappie6164]

Loved the mini pallet

[@gardeniainbloom812]

The travel palette is genius along with so many others. Thanks so much. Oh and duh, so that's how you fill the water brush lol

[@lorrainedurgee1761]

This video is terrific - easy detailed directions , thanks .

[@deborahruth5072]

Happy New Year to you too and thank you for all the tips. I have just started playing with my watercolor pencils and these tips will come in handy. Love your sense of humor about the sword.

[@margohardie822]

Love the comment about using pencils on a piece of watercolor paper with a paper cover to travel!!! Awesome. I have a couple of those watercolor brushes with water in the barrel. They are a godsend.

[@KizetteandTotoro]

Your sense of humour is really loosening up and I love it. And as always, great tutorial. (I don’t even need to finish watching the video… I just know it’s going to be great. Thank you.

[@carolshappyplace5828]

Way to go Michelle!l Another excellent video! What a plethora of watercolor pencil techniques and tricks. This is the best watercolor pencil video I’ve seen. Love the Scotch tape masking technique and mini travel palette. The mini travel palette reminds me of those little prizes in a box of Cracker Jack (Carmel corn & peanut snack in a box sold at baseball games, etc.- for those in the UK). I think the brush was just a little piece of paper but it was great fun as a kid in the 70’s. Dating myself! Lol!❤✏️🎨

[@IntheStudiowithMicheleWebber]

Oh and toys in cereal boxes!!

[@alina.kuptsova]

Thank you! The tip with the travel palette is just awesome! Can't wait for warm spring days to try it!

[@IntheStudiowithMicheleWebber]

Me too!

[@nesaclark1059]

Your tips are amazing! I had many "aha" moments! Thank you!

[@DawnDavidson]

Lovely! Several of these were new to me. I really liked the scraping technique for darker lines. (Coincidentally, it also reminded me to put my craft knife in my bag so I could take it down to my car to make an X in my registration tag, to discourage thieves from stealing the tag like they did last year! LOL. Thanks!) Mostly I use my watercolor pencils to highlight my Zentangle art, which is drawn with an ink pen (Sakura Pigma Microns, mostly.) I won’t use all of your techniques, but there were several ah-has, including the one about starting with clean water from the other side to avoid the sharp edge. You were so right about that one! Thanks!

[@loriminor7253]

I love The Bokeh technique and also the wax resist. Great tips, thank you!

[@deerhaven3350]

Thank you, so much, for showing these wonderful techniques to us. I love watercolor!

[@IntheStudiowithMicheleWebber]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@scoiataeli]

Definitely one of those videos you want to have saved 😮

[@mermaidjaffa9135]

Another tip for getting a smooth flat colour on rough or textured paper, is to colour with your wc pencil onto a rough surface like sandpaper or a rough chopping board that you only use for craft, then apply your wet brush to get the colours.

[@ChristineAllen_yeni]

The mobile palette is my favorite. Brilliant.

I have learned a lot about usung watercolor pencils from your videos. Thank you! I now use them often, incorporating many of your great ideas. I like to use the scraping method and wetting the pencils for small amounts. I also like to mix the colors and use them like you show for the palette to make small amounts for details. It is a really quick way to get the "perfect" color without wasting alot of paint.
