[@IntheStudiowithMicheleWebber]

Do you have any other uses for Watercolor Blooms or do you make them by accident? Would you like more detailed help about avoiding them?

[@melissamortimer4457]

Yes, knowing how to avoid them would be very helpful. Thank you.

Thanks so much for this very useful video tutorial, Michele - clear and informative as always. And now I’m going to make a practice sheet with all these techniques in one place so I can try to remember them!! 😊

[@aliciashackley5830]

Fantastic grass effect. Thx as always Michele. 🥰

[@christinebravomom5711]

I LOVE the distant trees effect. I've never been able to make those believable, but I think this should do the trick.

[@IntheStudiowithMicheleWebber]

That's great!

[@marielouisedavidson4834]

Thanks!

[@IntheStudiowithMicheleWebber]

Thank you so much!

Great to hear!

[@quietestkitten]

This is so helpful. Thank you

[@IntheStudiowithMicheleWebber]

You're so welcome!

[@melissamortimer4457]

Love the grass, distant trees and the clouds. I used blooms to cover up an accident - dripped some ink accidentally so created a bloom over it and then added a few more to make it look deliberate!

[@annenglish2935]

Thanks 😊 for sharing!

[@cydtaylor]

Wow! This was so excellent because you focused on one effect which helps me grasp the concept. I’ll definitely give these steps a try. Thank you 🎉

[@IntheStudiowithMicheleWebber]

[@sherryscoloringandpaintingcorn]

[@IntheStudiowithMicheleWebber]

A mix of Phthalo blue with a little rose and a little payne's grey

[@therealkathytincler]

This was great thank you. I'm the 'Bloom Queen'! Lol

[@IntheStudiowithMicheleWebber]

Sounds lovely!

[@jackiemiller1408]

I wish you had shown the examples again after they dried, but very interesting ideas to try.

[@IntheStudiowithMicheleWebber]

Next time :-)

Thank you!

[@nanschifris8734]

I enjoy using blooms of both water and paint to create textures on mountains.

[@liamwatson5125]

I love cauliflower and I bet you do too.

[@WhittleDude]

I 've watched one video and I'm delightfully taken aback. Things you said I've heard before but had forgoten. From time to time I need to be reminded of the basics. You have a lovely voice. Very relaxing making whatever I'm doing all the more enjoyable. Your voice is also inspireing, even when I make a mistake. Mistakes are not failures. They are the building blocks of learning. You are a delightful and inspiring artist and art instructor. Thank you. 😊

[@IntheStudiowithMicheleWebber]

Glad you enjoy the videos!

[@colleenmcchesney1482]

Okay you have just upped my landscape painting techniques & textures with the grasses & trees. Apparently I have not been using quite enough water to get these effects for my landscapes despite our hot humidity days. Also the fur technique looks much easier to use than what I have been trying. Thanks so much for sharing this video with us. I really appreciate it! 🥰💕

[@IntheStudiowithMicheleWebber]

Oh, heat makes things really tricky! you are very welcome!

[@LoriDonohue]

Thank you so much for making this video. It is very helpful. I’m going to use these techniques for parts of an old truck. You are the best teacher. I wish I was able to go to Spain with your group. Bring us back lots of stories and great pictures!

[@IntheStudiowithMicheleWebber]

Thanks Lori, will do!

[@sujanithtottempudi2991]

I had noted as a beginner ( like me ..though 5 years yo yo with watercolour)...we like tight realistic art..then as you see and observe more we tend start to understand more impressionistic style. Why is it so?

[@IntheStudiowithMicheleWebber]

We start to do more with less brush strokes I think :-)

[@viktoriavidali]

Very interesting techniques, Michele. Thank you!

[@IntheStudiowithMicheleWebber]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@Karen-cd9wt]

Love your videos, such useful tips and you make it look so easy when you break it all down. Do you have any videos about shadows? I never know what colours to use and how long shadows should be?

[@IntheStudiowithMicheleWebber]

Possibly some if you search. As for color, a shadow is a darker version of the color it's on :-) I will think about making a video about it.

[@mar_gheri_ta]

Awesome video❤

[@patsymccown2766]

Very nice!!😊

[@mandalouw5307]

❤️ it!

[@marypanich9880]

Super helpful! Thanks so much!

[@IntheStudiowithMicheleWebber]

Glad it was helpful!

[@ralphherrick596]

Can't find your paints ... sold out 😔

[@IntheStudiowithMicheleWebber]

Send them an email. It's a small company, making small batches, by hand, and pan paints have a drying time too. They're not usually out of stock for long.

[@antoninaheath3671]

Awesome thanks 🙏

[@IntheStudiowithMicheleWebber]

You're welcome 😊

[@rachanabhargava1735]

Superb tips

[@IntheStudiowithMicheleWebber]

Thanks!

[@sharonelliott1075]

Thank you.

[@IntheStudiowithMicheleWebber]

Welcome!

[@annettefournier9655]

I like the bloom technique for the iris in eyes as well. Thanks Michele 💜

[@IntheStudiowithMicheleWebber]

Oh, yes, my cat has this in his eyes!
