A guided tour of my favorite artists & art youtubers 🖤

[@Tinekke]

Wonderful list! You might also like Uffe Boesen. He is from Denmark, I believe. His abstract flowers are definetly not old school washed out watercolors. 😃He paints also landscapes and amazing portraits. And also, Titus Meeuws. His KZbin vlogs have this slow and calm living vibe. And Ali Cavanaugh and Agnes Cecile. Both amazing watercolorists. Goodness, I could go on and on....

[@wolfgangtoeglhofer1710]

..don’t say that you never will be so talented because you are and you are evolving definitely, stay on your course of your style and creativity, please

[@JaladhiPujara]

It’s so awesome to find someone with a similar taste in art. I discovered a few amazing artists from this video!

[@helgal.3081]

You are wonderful artist.

[@beckywebb1916]

Please don’t negate your own abilities. Everyone is a work in progress; everyone is improving all the time if they choose to spend the time to work on it. You can and are an inspiration to other artists that aren’t yet up to your level. Love the suggested videos, though. I’ll have to look at them after I’ve put some of my own studio time in.

[@TonyQuinn-Art]

Thankyou for sharing these amazing artists. There are some new ones in there I hadn't seen before. Please stop the negative self talk though, saying you'll never be that talented. I think on social media it's easy to not realise the work they put in to get where they are. We assume it is effortless for them, but over time we all develop and none of us will ever "arrive". I'm surer these artists have their own areas they aren't entirely happy with. But we tend to be our own worst enemy sometimes. It's great to follow your journey and your work looks like where I'd like to be. I enjoy working with charcoal, which actually surprised me before I tried it out in a local art class. I prefer it over painting. I just wonder how sellable charcoal art will be if I get better. I guess it is a good medium for practicing with too and some of the skills carry over to painting.

[@elllie3630]

thank you for sharing your fav artists very interesting to see especially as I myself am a watercolor artist as well

[@philcourtney7831]

I'm definitely looking up some of these artist. You may want to check out these watercolor artist if you haven't already. Liz Osborne, Susan Van Campen, Andrew Wyeth, Steven Scott Young, Winslow Homer, John Singer Sargent, Edward Hopper and of course me Phil Courtney🙂

[@bigblue6917]

Thanks for sharing, Louise, I am already following the charcoal artists. I think we must have found Mad Charcoal about the same time. I am also following Proko. I have a feeling many artist may be using a more conventional style with charcoal portraits because they are influenced by the renowned artist John Singer Sargent who took to using charcoal because he could not keep up with his commissioned paintings in oil.

[@andriykovach2736]

Thank you for great collection of artist to get inspiration from!!

[@DavidandPaula]

Awesome list thank you. My favourite KZbin Artist is Tim Schofield Art. Watching him paint is like meditation.

[@MsPKeller]

Thank you so much for sharing this beautiful list of artists! I love your channel because of the valuable content you share. It’s priceless!

[@unadrianamaria]

Amo todos tus videos graciaaas

[@crystaltanart]

Been loving your videos Louise. Thanks for sharing your inspiration. Your techniques. Your business opinions and everything artist related.

[@roxannemcv4259]

I watched them too and my favorites ++ (including) your channel!

[@walterfilhoart]

Disco Elysium has a fantastic artwork, I first knew the illustrations of the game on Pinterest, when I saw it was from a game I runned to put it on my wishlist. Great list of references yours! ✨

[@lawsbrettart]

Louise, you’re awesome. Thank you for sending me down an art wormhole of discovery! That’s my Saturday sorted ;)

[@wolfgangtoeglhofer1710]

great tutorial 👍👍👍🙏🙏🙏

[@glenda7921]

What a list! Thank you Louise this comprehensive collection. I so enjoy listening to you. Another recommendation- I really enjoy Jane Beata’s art - her focus is WC portraits. She loves to the push the boundaries on a paper’s layering capabilities. She’s humble and sweet (like you 😊). Fun to watch.

[@LouiseStigell]

Great suggestion! 😊

[@fuzzydragons]

so many inspirational artists 😀

[@flawlessking99]

I want to tell you this...I am in love 💕 with your voice!! It's soothing, inspiring and for me it's a great way to go to sleep!! Thank you for being my 😇

[@ronchurchill6492]

Thanks for sharing some of your inspiration… and intimidation. 😂 It’s such a fine line between adoration and downright enviousness (if that’s even a word). Can’t wait to look up a few of these artists. 😊

[@kjosephine70]

I’m still getting through your videos since I discovered you on here - I love Arleesha, Valerie, and Liron! Thank you for the list of other people to check out. I also like watching KZbinr Jimena Reno. She works in oils and gouache.

[@Murphy_DevLab]

If you like Simon Stalenhag with his mix of robotics and old landscapes, then you might like Jakub Rozalski. He does something similar but with a WW2 aesthetic with robotic tech. He was featured in a board and video game.

[@francineh.7825]

What a great variety of artists! This was so fun to watch! I was really drawn to them all but especially intrigued by Karl Martens so I'll have to check him out. Another watercolour artist you may like is Stephanie Law for her fantastical beings and creatures. I disagree with your comment that you could never be as good as these artists as I believe you totally could be!

[@artfx9]

🖤

[@annika93dk7]

Hi there, I just found you and this is crazy.. Sorry ;) I just read a bit about you on your website and it struck me how similar we are as personalities and our hobbies and even artists we look up to ! Anyway I hope you are doing great and that you take care of yourself. Hugs from Denmark

[@majeddraws5104]

Hi Louise, Thank you for this video... You have introduced me to some new artists that I didn't know before... I myself dapple with watercolor and charcoal traditionally, in addition to paint digitally (I use infinte painter app BTW, which I recommend 😊). I am planning to start my first project ever... and I torn, should I do you traditionally with watercolor or digitally? It's very scary to start your 1st project, isn't it? I love what you present to us here... you are so near to the heart... I wish you all the happiness in the world. I wish you success both in your writing and your painting.

[@بودكاستقارئة]

Thank you for this inspirational video .. i never drawing portraits or aminals .. i adore still life can you do a video about still life

[@TmHudsonArt]

Have you seen Kate Zambrano's work? Her charcoal portraits are fab. I'm sure it would be your type of thing.

[@LouiseStigell]

Oh wow, you're right. She's amazing! Thank you. 😌

[@SusannaM]

Thank you. Have you seen Lars Lerins art.

[@dirkschwartzel3360]

…funny, almost all of the artist you admire are on my list as well. Here is one you should check out. American Watercolor artist Marten Solberg - someone I personally totally worship…

[@CJShopland_Art]

Then the watercolour graphic novel the wrong place by Brecht Evens is beautiful, though adult themes of sexual nature about the mystery of a man everyone knows of but doesn’t truly know, until one day she meets him and connects to the real person after a passionate night of love making, also beautiful disco party renders in loose style and yet the lighting is super precise and amazing. It’s both very detailed and very abstract

[@VeraGolosovaArt]

Let me drop a comment before finishing the video, cannot wait to hear of your inspirations ❤

[@SigneofHorses]

Love the list.. it’s good to have favorites and people to admire. However.. It made me very sad to hear you say several times :’ I could never be that talented’ Saying this is probably meant as a compliment to the artist. But it’s really ignoring the skill, effort, time, struggle ect. they have put in to becoming the artists they are now. Also.. it’s disrespectful to the people who admire or buy your art. I would like to ask you to change what you’re saying to : I really admire how these artists have honed their talent and I hope to grow and develop my talent. You see perhaps these artists have been drawing longer and more because it was their job from the get go, it was still hard work. Perhaps they have had more time to draw, everyone has their own journey. When I see my friends photos I awestruck.. then she tells me she’s been doing it for 10 years ( and she is only 25 now!) Yes has talented, yes she was born in the digital era, yes she has an eye for it. She also put in the hours and sweat and tears. Anyway.. I know you dont mean bad.. I just hope this comment helps other artists who look up to you or anyone to realise they have talent..and practise makes progress!! So practice, make mistakes, make bad art. 😘🥰
