Book And Brush Review! Following Dana Fox's Watercolour With Me In The Jungle book!

[@maud2rolland348]

I like the way you do this revue, you are gentle and nice explaining very well why the paper can.t be Arches . You are encoraging us to try this nice book

[@sierracarscadden6049]

I have all of her books. They are so awesome and easy going. I trace the images then transfer them on better paper or sketchbooks. That way I can always have them to try over and over again.

[@jmace1271]

I do the same! 😊

[@JaneThatcher89]

‼️Ohh! How do you do this? Please help if you have a moment! If you can. I’m very new at this! I love this idea

[@Noniof3]

I love Dana’s books. They are fun as well as instructional. I can totally see you doing something like this, Emma, with flowers. I would be the first in line to buy your book. 😊

[@badsworthcats]

Me too......

[@rebeccap.simmons4244]

I have purchased all Three of her books and spent many delightful hours painting all the projects. I also have the wonderforest brushes and they are my favorite. I have many other brushes, but always reach for these golden gems.

[@judycline4524]

I love your channel. I have all three of her books. I'm currently working on in the forest. I only started learning watercolor this past July. Everything I've learned is from watching KZbin. Your channel has been one of my favorites. Thank you so much for teaching me so much. I'm 67 years old, so I guess you can teach an old dog new tricks. Lol.

[@JustMeYouSee]

I just want to tell you thank you! Thank you for always being positive and happy! I just started watercolor. I have been having seizures and my brain really needs the therapy. Its been so encouraging to listen to you..I feel like I can succeed and if I make mistakes it will be ok. 🥰💞

[@sarah4264]

Hugs to you ❤ Have fun with it and don't worry about things not being perfect...nothing looks perfect in real life.

[@JustMeYouSee]

@@sarah4264 thanks for telling me that..concentration cause shocks in my head so I haven't done much lately but I have great hope I can do this..its goid to know I dont have to be perfect because I'm surely not..lol 🤪💗💗💗 hugs back to you!

[@sarah4264]

@@JustMeYouSee Well, it sounds like loose and abstract is right up your alley. You can always come back when it's dry and add squiggles, dots and lines with a marker, ink pen or white jell pen. And don't forget to splatter it for that artisic touch. Then you'll have created a masterpiece.

[@JustMeYouSee]

@@sarah4264 sounds like you could give lessons! 😁👍

[@trashhound7758]

I just got the ocean book. So excited to try it. Thank you for doing this review! And yes you should absolutely do you own watercolor coloring book! I would pre order that immediately.

[@JA-ed1tj]

I have her 1st book. It was so much fun. Being a new watercolorist I didnt want to only have 1 chance. So, I photocopied the drawings only for my own use. Then I used a tracing light to trace onto watercolor paper. I learned so much and it was rewarding. I finished the whole book...all 50.

[@gillianc8106]

This has inspired me to break my current lack of watercolour mojo, and get out my Dana Fox books! I don’t have the latest book, but I have the In the Forest and In the Ocean ones, and I agree that they’re really relaxing and fun to paint in. One of these books with a couple of brushes (maybe a round #6 and a round #2) and a small Cotman half-pan palette would make a wonderful lockdown gift for someone wishing to try watercolour painting.

[@kellysartthrob]

We've gotten spoiled with all the free content available and a lot of people have no idea how much work goes into it. I think 25 watercolor projects with watercolor paper sounds great. Cool project, thank you for sharing.

[@marjoriemoser3961]

I am excited that you shared with us the watercolor books! I’m visiting my granddaughter in California and I’m hoping to have an afternoon of watercolor fun with her💕

[@1334cass]

I have all three of her books. I usually sketch the project onto my paper and then follow her painting instructions. I love all three books! Thanks to you, I found her watercolor brushes and placed an order today. Thank you for another amazing video!!

[@BDTStudio]

I was happy to see this book is also available as a Kindle book. I can print out the practice drawings on my own paper, and the money I saved over the cost of the physical book I can put towards purchasing her brushes.

[@debmarie55]

I think her books would make great gifts for beginning artists. Sometimes you just need a written tutorial.

[@kathiecranston1577]

Heavens yes! To not have to be as mindful of one's own subject matter & composition, etc., but just of hue, water/pigment ratio, wc brushstrokes & just practice in & of itself. LOVELY❣

Thank you for sharing this Emma. I am also looking forward to your book when it comes out...Take care

[@rachaelsica4113]

Thank you so much for the tip about placing more colour and bringing it down. I've been struggling for a while with that on cold-pressed paper and managed to do it after watching you. Your videos are very much appreciated. 😊

[@ReinaShebba]

I am doing this workbook now... I love it! Her brushes my favoritos!!

[@carolyndaughton3373]

Thank you for doing a tutorial on this. I purchased this book a few weeks ago and just ordered the other ones as well. I'm glad you found this a relaxing exercise, Emma. You give so much of yourself to others and it's nice to see you being about to sit back and experience what we all get to experience because of your tutorials. :)

[@DianeAntoneStudio]

Very interesting teaching indeed.

[@mentalmadness5402]

Thanks for your review! I went and ordered the books. Can't wait!

[@rbud9400]

Thank you for introducing these books to me. I really like the idea and the nice presentation of each step..

[@tine_dipped_in_colour]

I have all her books, but have not yet painted in them, so it was really great to see you taking the first step - It is a bit intimidating to paint right there in the lovely book lol 😅 I will do it, I just have to get that first page done to get over it I think - thank you 👋🏻🤗👋🏻

[@bethlillis5575]

Thanks for introducing me to someone new to follow. Cant wait to order one of her books and I' m now following her too. You are so full of fun and inspiration as well as information. Thanks for making my day wonderful

[@christinahutchison3967]

You did a great job and I love Dana fox

[@krisfrost2456]

I’ve been using these brushes since last year, even ordered a second set as a backup. I love them! And they’re in the same condition they arrived and I use them daily.

[@suzannehulton2571]

I just ordered the jungle book excited to try it. I think when you trace things it helps muscle memory

[@jennymarko2196]

I have all 3 of Dana's books and her brushes. I loved working through them so much that I bought copies for a friend of mine's 10 year old daughter who is a budding artist. She loved them and I think some of her paintings turned out better than mine. 💕👍

[@nancywatson9084]

The Wonder Forest Brushes are for sure my go to brushes! Love them!

[@chrischurchley7003]

I am rushing to order - amazing and cannot wait! Thank you for bringing to us 😁

[@penniecormier8770]

Just bought that watercolor with me Jungle paint book! Thanks for the demo of the tiger! I was afraid of tackling the big cats in this book.

[@robinsamuelson3626]

i just purchased these bocks from Dana Fox.. I am so excited to try them. Love your tiger!

[@melissaaldosari8024]

So much fun! I have her first two books, but not this one...yet!

[@catherinepresseau6459]

I got her first two books from our municipal library, so I was very happy to see your review. Canadian women artists rock!!

[@robl9767]

Great review Emma and I’m going to get one of these books to mess around with now.

[@jmace1271]

I have the first 2 of her books and I love them for stress-free watercolor fun.

[@gretchenslagle5011]

I’d love to have an adult coloring book but for watercolors, with Watercolor paper🙂

[@sarah4264]

I had no idea that watercolor supplies had increased in price. I stocked up last Christmas on my fav M Graham and. QoR paints. I wish I had bought more paper and a few new brushes. I really like the format of this book.

[@debrabartman6749]

Thank you for creating this video for us. Enjoyed seeing the book and brushes. Tiger looks great!

[@erikajennings9040]

So glad you recovered your video, what a fun project. I'll go check out her content, she's new to me.

[@mariawoods4485]

I just bought her books and can’t wait to start painting! Thank you! 😄

[@watercolourartincapetown2919]

These look like lovely gift ideas for beginners

[@15sweatequity]

You are really good at animals! If you aren't around the animal & don't know them, of course it's hard. But I have seen your animals-they are very good! Animals aren't something you've focussed on, but, you are spending time on things you love-which is a wonderful way to live 😊🤓

[@lindsayjayne2169]

Thankyou for the heritage comparison here. I literally have a heritage set and the wonder forest set in my Amazon cart and I was trying to decide on one! Lol

[@amandastratton8242]

Very good book brushes and your painting Thanks Emma

[@atomiclisa]

I started with her In the Forest book as a beginner and then started watching your videos! Great pairing.

[@anneslabinski9463]

thanks for showing this. I just got her first book and love it! My only complaint (not a real complaint) is that I would like to do them over on watercolor paper but when you copy them, they are too light to copy well. I even tried using graphite paper to copy them to another piece of watercolor paper and that didn't work either. Still, her books are awesome! (I am a beginning watercolor painter).

[@MrFabriciusalmeida]

Love the video! The tiger turned out perfect! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

[@rnee1000]

Great video. I have and love all her books and her brushes are wonderful.

I need to add this book to my collection. I have two sets of your brushes they are my #1 favorite!!!!!

[@Skinnychelle48]

Love the shorter handles! Princeton Heritage Brushes are my favs.

[@carolguthmann6646]

Thank you for the recommendation I just ordered one!💃

[@BeckyMa9482]

I have the forest and ocean books, and I'm a beginner. It was my Sunday morning project while we were in lock down last year, and my church had online services. I've only done stuff in the forest book, and so many turned out well (others not so much). I keep looking for the jungle book in stores. I follow her in Instagram, and I think she's coming out with a farm book, eventually!

[@dandansapainting]

Very beautiful. Just liked and subscribed

[@nadinevandenhende8999]

[@nenabird2685]

I have her first two books. I love to take them camping.

[@IBeLieveInChrist07]

I have two of her books, that I love. I had this one in my hands last week and changed my mind due to price. Thanks for enlighten me as to why it was thinner and pricier. That makes sense instead rather than, what I thought, which was that she was being cheap (so sorry for being judgements). Also thank you for demos as I have the worst time reading and following instructions. I’m a visual learner.

[@EmmaLefebvre]

I saw a lot of negative reviews for those reasons and it makes me quite sad to see that. Artist's want nothing more than to put quality work and products out. I know how hard it was for her to have to do that in the circumstances she was given. Wish people would have a little more grace. I haven't tried either of her previous books but I can tell you, this one is more than worth the price!

[@paulinedavis2918]

What a fantastic idea for beginners...

[@taylorjudi]

I bought the book during lockdown in my state. I was shocked when I received it; it was so much slimmer. But I do know Covid created shortages, price increases, etc. I love all three books.

[@ShahanoorMamun]

Yes!! it's Wonderful !

[@ceconge4]

I have all her books. They are amazing!!!

[@grandma.p]

I used a library book and made bookmarks with pictures of animals for kids I know for Christmas. I wrote their names in calligraphy on the bookmarks.

I have that same book and I love it. I traced out the drawings cause I felt bad drawing in the book even if it is ment for that.

[@hamzahdwi4457]

Wooow your drawing collection very nice👍👍

[@justjules5831]

Could I try a Watercolor medium to keep the paint wetter for longer on this paper?

[@geraldinelucas3143]

It turned out great see you can paint animals and enjoy it. You can branch out from flowers and do a great job. LOL

Wondering how heavy the paper is (???lbs.).

[@marnorth670]

Ooooo. !!!!

[@shaustin22]

I have all 3 books and her brushes. I like everything but am a bit disappointed in the last book - being half the size and the same price. Also the paper is different in this last book it seems to have dots on it. Maybe it’s just my copy. LOVE her brushes.

[@kerrym5424]

No, it’s not your copy. Mine has that too. Poor paper. Very thin and pills up. But I think her books are great, that aside!

Emma how can I get a book

[@EmmaLefebvre]

They sell them in book stores and on amazon!

[@Telindra]

Leaving a feedback on your recording equipment here. Something is off with your microphone, there's a lot of sound distortion on the higher pitch tones when you are speaking. Very painful to the ears, even when lowering the sound volume on the video a ton the painful distortion pitch is still there.

[@travelvibes3656]

Sounds fine to me. I wonder if it’s your speaker/device . Just a thought.

[@MrFabriciusalmeida]

Loved the video! The tiger turned out perfect. 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
