Bravo, Sarah! All of your pieces came out wonderfully! I had SUCH a great time painting with you and look forward to doing so again really soon. ♥

[@SarahRenaeClark]

Thank you Scott! I really enjoyed creating with you!

[@auau1miau]

Meu Deus, meus 2 favoritos juntos! Estou no céu!!! ❤🎉

[@SuperBertie25]

I love Sarah and Scott’s art, it is fabulous ❤️

[@Mimispeedybanana]

Love your art scott

[@Mimispeedybanana]

And you to sarah love your videos!!!

[@TemiDansoArt]

I’ve been a fan of Scott & Melanie for a while but it’s so cool to see 4 different styles for watercolour (&gouache). Everyone was so kind in their teaching, it’s actually got me excited to try watercolour.

[@Osas_Ad_Arts]

Ma'am where have you been I miss you

[@sarthakgautam5311]

if you do decide to try it remember always use 100% cotton paper if it ain't cotton paper it ain't watercolor paper lol

[@ssavaart]

Thank you Temi. I'm a fan of your art as well. ♥

[@Dasjustmyblenderart]

Ma'am, talking about gouache ... (unsubtle wink wink)

[@HogwartsLife2011]

When i saw scott at the beginning i knew that i was 100% gonna enjoy this video

[@taniadutta3503]

Had such a fantastic time painting with you!!!

[@SarahRenaeClark]

Thank you for being such a wonderful teacher!

[@ginamariegavin450]

Hi kristy!!! ILOVE your vids!!!!!!!!!!!!!❤❤❤❤❤❤

[@ashleyreinhard875]

Scott is a wonderful artist. I’m so happy you jumped in and tried something out of your depth!! Best wishes

[@Blick_Art]

It's so very exciting to see some of our favorite artists coaching each other in such a supportive way! We're not at all surprised that Sarah got such good results, with her incredible talent and the quality of instruction we saw here. One thing all of these instructors have in common is the ability to communicate the most sophisticated painting concepts in a way that removes the intimidation factor and makes every lesson seem achievable. Scott, we'll see you on Monday for your live stream!

[@shamroc34]

I've been watching Scott Christian Sava for a little while now. The algorithm blessed me for some reason. It's really nice to see him talk through the processes with you. This is a brilliant video. Great stuff! Also shout out to the Artistic Bear brushes seen in the wild.

[@melindarivera6598]

I believe your final mushroom painting is my favorite of the video! It's so airy and whimsical!

[@PxsDD]

That floral is gorgeous! Can't believe it's your first watercolor

[@melindarivera6598]

29:07 this is the problem i ALWAYS have with watercolors, especially on skin tones!! Edited Update: I think when I get to this point, I get too scared to go too dark! And it's the going darker at this point that I think saved your painting.

[@VisualMind]

You did an amazing job on all of those pieces & created a fabulous video! Thanks for having me, I had such a fun time painting & chatting with you 🥰

[@SarahRenaeClark]

Thank you Melanie! Your advice was so helpful!

[@jordynmarie141]

Kristy should teach if she doesn't already! She explained things so well.

[@rudramewada7832]

I think watercolour is way more relaxing , stress free and forgiving !! While in acrylic you are frustrated the most time !! I started my painting journey with acrylics and now I love watercolours !!😊😊 amazing videos learned a lot

[@LeeAnnahsCreations]

I love the Mushroom and the Gouache the best, but I highly enjoy it all!

[@figetlegend3832]

Wow I’m 12 yrs old and I wanna be js like u when I grow up :)

[@leslieladyhawke]

Amazing! The flowers was my favorite but that palette knife painting were interesting!

[@ChristinaTodd1970]

I tried to teach an acrylic painter how to use watercolor and without a doubt the #1 problem she had was not using enough water. It was a real struggle for her head to get around.

[@albarodriguezcollantes5615]

Honestly, I just love Kristy. She's just lovely and encouraging and her no rules rule is great. Plus, the way she swatches new colors is so unique. I love listening to her while I fold my laundry 😅😅

[@xparvv]

You know its going to be a masterpiece if 5 artists collab and share their styles 🫶🏻

[@Anchanee2008]

I love your picture 'Scott's Style' best. It feels like you were most comfortable with it.

[@JessicaSzempruch]

Wow, those art pieces you’ve created are amazing! My favorite is the watercolor flowers and “the forbidden cake”. 😂

[@zainabsyed5750]

Wow so many different art styles all beautiful 🤩

[@Chopanflores]

Can’t wait for you to try watercolor as a base for colored pencils. They work wonderfully together

[@La_Na_10]

Sarah, all of your work has been amazing. But... mushrooms stole my heart ❤

[@anaj5726]

My shocked face when I saw Scott here!! He is such a gem and such a wholesome person to be with. Good roster choice Sarah, I'll be keeping an eye on these artists because all are such wonderful people and wonderful artists, including you. Best wishes from the UK.

[@sweethaven5]

5:50 you are so AWESOME at learning new things. Hope you are feeling better ❤ Take care from Ohio 🇺🇸

[@SmillyDonut]

It's so fun to see you learn new skills and be introduced to youtubers we might not know in the process.

[@tracylamb]

You did great! All the pieces with different mediums turned out really well. You can always add gouache on top of watercolor.

[@lunawolf3645]

Oooh! That’s how Scott does his art. Maybe I can get into watercolor his way. Watercolor was always my enemy in Highschool Art, so I’m even scared to touch acrylic or oil paint. 😅😂

[@Jennie_Chbz]

It’s so hard to believe you were new to all three mediums, your pieces turned out stunning. 😍 Your little mushroom is just adorable.. It had so much depth to it! 🥹

[@CourtneyShumpert]

Sarah is just talented all-around 🤯 She is truly an artist. Whatever medium she uses just works for her!!

[@lauriebradford613]

My favourites are the portrait and the flowers.

[@MsModeller]

As usual an inspirational video that show cases why taking risks and conquering fears can be beyond rewarding! Thanks for show casing some other amazing creators for us to binge too! 💜💜

[@orozer6558]

Love the format. Beautiful pieces. Well done. Love mushrooms 🍄 for some unknown reason 😅. 😊😊

[@Skittl1321]

So excited to see some new KZbinrs, and one artist I already knew and love. I have all of Josie Lewis's classes and puzzles.

[@ronilancaster6390]

Love that you teamed up with other artists in this way. Was really cool to see you learning from them 1 on 1. Would love to see this type of project again, with you learning other new art/craft skills. Your approach to learning has reinvigorated my desire to jump back into art.

[@occheermommy]

Just watched the American art supply haul and it’s so funny because I just moved to florida but I grew up about 10 miles from that Art Supply Warehouse. My husband and I used to go there when he was in Architecture classes at the local Community College. In fact we bought his drafting table there. (CAD software was in its infancy. I’m old what can I say). I was surprised she didn’t see a bunch of the craft stuff she liked at Michael’s at Hobby Lobby. They have the inks and stickers and stuff. And yes we love Bob Ross because he’s so soothing. I remember his show when I was a kid. Again I’m old.

[@WillowRoseArlen]

I love all these creators, and so fun to see them teach their various styles!! This is such a great concept for a video, Sarah! 😊

[@astridgarcia888]

Wow Sarah !! Your artwork is amazing. I do really love it ! Keep it up. Thank you very much for sharing it.

[@MeanColleen]

I already follow Kristy, and now follow three more artists today due to your art journey. It was fascinating watching you try new mediums. I think all of them turned out great, but my personal favorite was your second mushroom.

[@szabib8048]

Each and every one of these pieces are wonderful! I can't really choose among them. Great work!

[@piotrdworowy183]

Watercolors,and I already follow Scott, he always amazed me.

[@catherinefannon7717]

What a great exploration of color and mediums! I already follow Kristy, but i have 3 new artists to add to my watch list! I appreciate the way you try new things- it encourages me to do the same.

[@shadowguard3578]

Yay Sarah finally a watercolor video, it’s great! I’ve stopped working with coloring pencils a while ago and branched off into watercolor. I hope you continue to use watercolor and make more watercolor art and videos. Scott’s art was a revelation to me, I just subbed to his channel. There are many fantastic watercolor artists on YT. I’m excited to add you to that list and watch. Thanks! ❤

[@yukimuraruki]

Yay! You learned so many different mediums in such a short amount of time and that's so cool! It was a really fun video to watch especially because you chose to show the different mediums not necessarily chronologically - like, you did your own water colour painting with Scott's method at the end. Especially your last watercolour painting is amazing. When I was about 12 years old I guess, I got my first set of water colour pencils by Faber Castel and that was indeed pre internet (I've got internet 2-3 years later) and pre KZbin - that's how old I am already x'D But the thing is, I just had to experiment and use them on my own. Let me tell you - my first pieces did look nothing like yours. But that could also correlate with the lack of my experience as a growing artist in general :) It took me more time to handle them - But it was incredibly fun! My favourite medium is probably gouache too, which I got interested in 2018 and since then I just love to use them. I agree with you, that it is very important to discover different mediums without fear. Because every "fail" will also be the next opportunity to learn from the things that went wrong. At least that's what I get from your video :D I'm really looking forward to what you'll do in water colour or gouache in the future - or that very interesting chunky paints. I wonder if you could use them in a more refined and not so blobby way too :O Thanks for the video and thank you for sharing this part of your art journey :3 I'm looking forward to your next one.

[@dimitrioskalfakis]

nice gouache artwork! don't give up :-)

[@mlaura26]

Liked them all. But my fav was Scott’s. I like how it looks his layering technique and you did it great!

[@amiemarieart]

Thankyou for introducing us to 4 more amazing artists, I can't believe I haven't come across them before. I'm off to binge watch their videos and sub to them all. Thanks again for an awesome video xx

[@midnightbakura]

O my God, you got scott!! I love that man so much! Him and his wife are so freaken adorable

[@bdbear10]

Your watercolor floral piece is absolutely gorgeous!! And the portrait came out pretty good too!

[@SPiRAh]

I love all the paintings but I really love the little mushroom picture! It turned out so great, especially for a first attempt!!

[@NatalieBramasole]

Sarah,in the process i saw how you was growing. I especially love the painting with lady,i love the way you layered en that contrast, just marvelous. I think you find your style, it’s amazing, just beautiful. You have do more those paintings,your style is very very beautiful, it's the outcome from what you already know from coloring with pencils and the 4 artist's you learned from. I am impressed. You rock, girl👍👍👍😁😁😁👌👌👌🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳

[@JayofallTrades]

Watercolor has been a very dip my toes in first type of medium for me but i absolutely love the graphic style that comes from Scott's style. I enjoy doing graphic novel characters and this really makes me think i could actually dabble more with watercolors. I've only ever used watercolor markers and pencils. Seeing you go out of your comfort zone and try a different medium from pros at it has given me confidence to try this medium

[@annak8176]

Watercolour can be used to put as a base under the coloured pencils, provided you use little water/the paper is not too thin. Speeds up colouring similar to using markers :)

[@sarahgibbons9737]

Wow they're all so individual I can't pick a favourite. I think the textured would be the most fun to paint. I think the flowers would be the most relaxing to paint. I think the portrait would be the most anxiety provoking in the process but most satisfying when it works out. The Whimsical gouache would be a useful learning technique. All in all a great video to watch on a tiring evening thank you

[@marileeb288]

This was wonderful and so fun to watch! Great job Sarah! Gouache looks very fun to practice and play around with.

[@elainewines1134]

Portrait is beautiful. I also liked everything you did. Looks like you’re a natural.💜

[@sunstripe85]

This is so cool!! Thank you for recording and sharing this so we can all learn these fantastic tips and styles! All of the artists are so cool... it'll be fun to try these out myself too ❤

[@slateportraichu5416]

I had so much fun watching and learning together=3 Thank you, Sarah and all the wonderful teachers =3

[@35406]

My favourite was the portrait, perhaps because it was based on your own drawing style yet took a risk. I think it worked to create a striking art piece that was more than a duplication of someone else's style.

[@scherre]

Wow! Your painting are absolutely amazing and definitely don't look like first attempts at the mediums. I love Josie and have followed her for ages so I really enjoyed seeing you learn from her and have a renewed desire to try the chunky painting myself. I also was especially impressed with your gouache mushroom and I'm going to have to spend some time checking out Melanie's channel as they seem like a great teacher.

[@lisa_cotter]

Love love love Kristy Rice, she is so talented!, I watch her channel allot she got me started with watercolour :) She is so bubbly and full of energy its fantastic, love the painting you did with watercolour

[@silverstormsfury5349]

Absolutely gorgeous pieces all around. You did so well for the short dabbles you had. Favorite is probably the bright flowers, but they are all really well done.

[@margaridatorres1273]

Yess!! I've recommended watercolour in the past and I'm happy that you enjoy it that much. For a beginner your pretty good😅 my first tries were disasters

[@sandragordon1161]

Loved all the projects you did Sarah, they all turned out so well! I think of all the mediums you tried, I would have to say that I am most intrigued with the gouache and that cute little mushroom!

[@gangoolie68]

Love them all, but the portrait at the end was my fave!

[@christinefisher5716]

Loved this so much!!! Thank you for taking us on your journey!

[@BiteSizedCrafter]

You did amazing with the watercolors!! I honestly loved your flowers!!

[@YukinoKary]

Incredible this video 😃 Love the diversity of techniques ✨ My favorite was the use of paints with palette knives to create shapes and textures on the canvas 😮😃. I saw it relaxing. I love the two pictures you painted ❤ Very nice your watercolor portrait and if you add more layers it becomes more realistic or paint more details 👍✨ You should try painting with oil pastels because they use a lot of creative techniques 🤩

[@danyelhudon458]

I had appreciated very these techniques from those artists that I am watching for so long, I am having a better understanding about those paintings techniques. TKY a lot for sharing me these techniques from you as a beginners who love to try different mediums in your art! From Quebec in Canada 🇨🇦, ❤😊

[@damienglynn]

This was really fascinating, I really enjoyed learning along with you!

[@felinefurkin4275]

I’ve seen a lot of Josie’s videos and some of Kristy’s, Josie does a very nice watercolour palette too. It’s interesting to see all their techniques, I’m especially intrigued by the watercolour as it’s my favourite but it’s been feeling flat lately, it’s lovely to feel excited by it all again. Your art all turned out really good especially the floral piece with all the colours.

[@NightMare_Hunter_EXTRA]

Your videos have a certain positivity to it which I enjoy and it makes me smile ❤

[@lokicooper4690]

I adore (and am a complete sucker for) watercolour paintings. Something about it just speaks to me so much more than oils or acrylic. However, I'm not really an artist, so I've never tried watercolours. After watching this, and having just bought NerdECrafter's watercolour colouring pages kit, I really want to try it and have fun with it.

[@BrownEyedPrincess1]

I’ve never seen Scott before but I immediately subbed. I love the way he stylizes!

[@live_my_moment_swiftie]

I'm sluggish and hate to clean up the paint after using it and I create a big mess while painting... so pencils are my go-to option. I really love all your videos and how you experiment and knowing that someone like you, who is so talented and well-versed in using pencils is also an amateur in painting is letting me know I'm not alone... and it's so nice to see how your learning very well and how well you can do, even though this is your first time.... my first time was a disaster.

[@meganesergerie5382]

For your information, I am the same as I hate cleaning afterwards so that's why I love watercolors and gouache. Both media are water soluble and very easy to clean with water right after you finish your art session. It is an absolutely charm and that's the reason I now more often choose these over acrylics or oils. You might want to give it a try someday!

[@live_my_moment_swiftie]

@@meganesergerie5382 Sure, i have a bit of a history with watercolors but never properly tried it. Thank you.

[@Lexi-cl1pr]

Love all of them 🤩 definitely inspiring me to try something new!

[@Kreative_Rainbow]

I was so happy to see Josie on here!! 🥰 That young lady makes the most lovely rainbow paintings!! 🌈 I love her style and her drive!! 💖 She is an amazing artist and person!! 😍 You did an incredible job with all of the pieces!! 👏👏 I think Josie's was the most outside your normal range as it was abstract and so thick! 👍 I think after the chunky paintings, I think your water color flowers were gorgeous!! 💐 Can you color with pencil over the water colors to add highlights or depth or detail? Did you know that Josie's main love of art is water color? She even has her own set of paints as well. 🎨 But her geodes are outstanding but time-consuming!! Her butterfly mosaic she did in the airport is a wonderful creation created with blood, sweat, and tears!! 🦋 She breathes art. As you can tell, I'm a long-time fan and have followed her since she had around 3K on IG and was figuring out this whole social media thing!!🥰

[@Artwithbenji]

I love Scott's streams and art. I used to regularly hang out in his tiktok stream

[@Artwithbenji]

Also incredible work 👏 🙌

[@anitarucker8589]

Sarah, you are Very talented andd smart. Ty for including us in this journey of discovery,. I find this VERY encouraging in that I could be this brave too and try new things!

[@amyprince2081]

I saw Kristy and I KNEW this was going to be awesome!! I LOVE her color palette!! And those BRUSHES!!! I have been using her as my watercolor teacher!! Josie, FABULOUS!! All of the artists were GREAT teachers and I have subscribed to them all!! Thank you for introducing them to us! My favorite of your paintings was your mushrooms!

[@merrybeth627]

Loved all though portrait a little more 😊 💜💜💜

[@amiemarieart]

You really have done an amazing job at all of them Sarah, good on you for trying new media, just wait til you combine watercolour and pencils, It's a game changer!!

[@emilyboggs9442]

I love using the Ohuhu watercolor brush pens. There amazing and so handy.

[@Joy.Elizabeth]

you did SO good!! I love that flower at 10:25 absolutely gorgeous! 💖 And that portrait came out stunning esp for your first time w watercolor that's nuts! Loved this video great job!!

[@johappy1234]

Love your channel! It gives me joy.

[@Rain_boot]

The green painting at 22:07 looks like fall tree leaves!

[@esmed779]

Great new artists to watch

[@midnightstarLive]

I legit screamed yes when I saw Scott’s art pop up

[@StoneWolf99801]

With watercolors, while its wer, dusting it with salt, will also give it an awesome texture! Then you let it dry. Then you brush the salt off only once its dried. Its great for doing galaxies, night scenes, and underwater.....

[@DessahLS]

I've been wanting to buy watercolors, Winsor&Newton is too expensive for me but I'll use the one you linked as a guide for the colors

[@mlfett6307]

Wow! Thanks for taking us all on the painting adventures! I cannot decide which I like the most! Interestingly, when doing your last piece, I had the thought that you could tease out colours with perhaps coloured pencils on top? I have seen this mixed media approach before and to me it seems very non-intuitive, but the outcome is always wonderful.

[@Taracinablue]

Another ambitious video! It was a cool idea to learn from other artist youtubers, & I look forward to you playing with these new mediums (as you feel like showing us) 😊

[@pallabidhar4638]

Very innovative video. Loved the mushrooms ❤

[@andreaewert7204]

Oh my! I've just started doing watercolor with Kristy Rice too! Lovely her KZbin videos!!!!!!!!❤❤❤❤❤

[@mirascraftycorner]

I Love finding new artists through collaborations! Following Kristie now! Also happy to see Scott and Melanie who I’ve been following for a long time! Edit: following Kristy and Josie 😁😁😁

[@gwynethglas-brown9171]

Well done Sarah what you created are stunning 😍 Flowers were beautiful the colours just popped 😜

[@sapphire9675]

Sarah, thank you and your guest so much for this. I learned a lot, this was much needed. I don't know if I have patience for the blow drying part though, but that was cool.

[@judldoodles]

Yes, Visual mind!

[@sabs666ify]

I really love the water colours and gouache i want to try gouache soon to .
