A beautiful painting.

[@AnastasiaMily]

Thank you so much!

[@wattenslaafje1825]

Of all the amazing watercolorists on youtube, your style speaks the most to me and really inspires me on what direction to take. You teach me that less truly is more in this medium. Thank you for showing your processes! You deserve so many more subs than 288.

[@AnastasiaMily]

Thank you so much for your kind words, they mean a lot. Comments like yours confirm it was a good decision to start this channel. I did it a few weeks ago only so I am hoping my audience grows with time :)

I really like the effect of the bottom left. The splatters, lines, and soft wash with those granulating pigments is so unique and lively! Thank you for sharing your process!

[@AnastasiaMily]

Thank you so much for watching! It is so much fun to play with splatters in watercolour - they reflect the nature of the medium so well

Thank you! It is such a beautiful colour! Amazing on its own and in mixes too.

I was afraid and stuck thinking about landscapes. Found your videos and I am working on my third version of this ... after I did four versions of the first video. Now, I am shocked at my progress and confidence. Wishing you sincere blessings and thank you.

Your comment makes me so happy! Glad your confidence is growing - it certainly makes things easier. Thank you for watching 😊

Have tried watercolor painting a few times but given up. Your style & wonderful landscapes have given me the urge to try again and hopefully this time produce something that will keep me motivated & keen. It is a joy to watch you paint & it looks so easy but as I have found out before it takes skill & patience which I have in short supply. Thanks for kick starting me again 😁👍 Joe

[@AnastasiaMily]

Thank you so much for your comment Joe. It makes me so very happy that my art inspires you to get back to watercolours. Watercolours can seem rather hard to control, but they are so much fun, and I found that when I let go of trying to control them is when I am finally feeling like I am actually getting the results I like! Enjoy - they are such a playful, free-spirited medium. Remember that they want to flow freely :)

[@maggiecarter3432]

This was totally FUN!!. I didn't have the transparent red so I tried Burnt Sienna and Quin Sienna. I think the Burnt Sienna worked best. And the Quin Sienna added a nice touch to the trees. Thank you. I love Sodalite Gen. and that family of paints.

[@AnastasiaMily]

Oh I am so glad you had fun! Burnt Sienna and Q.Sienna sound like an amazing choice to go for here 🧡 I know they would look totally amazing with Sodalite! Thank you for watching 😊

[@millydaisy29]

Your control of water is AMAZING! I love the colours you use and your loose simple abstract style. It makes me want to have a go even though I am not very good at painting. Please keep sharing 🌸

Interesting piece. I love the layout and the complete simplicity. To get such a beautiful result with such restraint on material is a testamnt to your obvious talent! Thank you for sharing this!

[@AnastasiaMily]

Thank you for watching, and for your kind words! One of the countless reasons watercolour is such a magical medium is that can say so much with just a couple of colours...

[@milanoiversen]

The white horizontal space (maybe water) is quite unique, it makes the rest stands out much better. Nice.

[@AnastasiaMily]

Thank you so much. I am thinking it may be water too! such sharp horizon lines are great for creating contrast :)

[@suresh.karthikeyan]

Gorgeous - that is the word that springs to my mind seeing the painting. Simplicity is another one. I also saw you using a brush for painting the stem & branches of trees, which I have never seen any other artist use before. Which is it ?

[@AnastasiaMily]

Thank you so much! That brush is a needlepoint brush, NEEF Alvaro Castagnet size 6. It is very useful for creating fine details but still staying loose

Thank you so much Jeanna! The needle point and the dagger have a different shape. I use needle point for more detailed work, and my dagger for loose and irregular brushstrokes

@@AnastasiaMily Thanks so much ! Thank makes perfect sense.

[@pamelaknott6707]

So beautiful. What your ratio of paint to water - as a perpetual beginner I am a bit hit and miss with this! !

[@AnastasiaMily]

Thank you Pamela! The ratio of paint to water changes constantly and is very hard to describe exactly as it depends on the actual paint colour I am using. But generally I use the paint mixed to a consistency of cream (just like the cream used for whipping) to paint darker areas, the consistency of milk to paint midtones, and a very watery mix for the lighter areas. It certainly comes with experience so just keep on painting! :)
