EASY technique to make a GALAXY SKY

[@melaniely5544]

The trees pull the whole image together. Great turn out. And the colors flow so well together. Love the image.

[@nancyscjones]

I do appreciate how you took the time to explain how the "hop" was designed to help the new youtubers, and all the different ways we viewers can help (and enjoy!). I enjoyed watching how you created night sky scene as well. USA

[@wendyodell356]

Love this tutorial! For one, it's very relaxing to watch someone paint. For 2, you start with nothing, creating a scene and are virtually telling a story. I really like the colors you chose. You taught me how to layer the colors for depth, paint trees and how the size of them determines the distance to the front of the scene. You are EXTREMELY TALENTED!! Stay safe and God bless ❤ XOXO I am in the USA

[@rochellenowik9875]

What a wonderful presence you have to talk with us viewers directly (not from the script). I believe you can really teach me something and I won't get bored. USA

[@sejones156]

I love how you talk us thru everything that you did. Thanks for sharing.

[@dianerizak2894]

Thank you for explaining all the ways us viewers can help all the beautiful crafters on KZbin! Your skies look amazing! And it's really cool how you made the trees! USA

[@tracyjollymore6249]

I've been watching your painting videos for a while and thoroughly enjoy your teaching. Thank you for sharing your process and experience. Best wishes for health and safety. Cheers from Canada!

[@teriandrews9569]

I would normally avoid trying something like your watercolor night sky because I've had too many failed attempts in the past. But your instructions were clear and simplified, and your words of encouragement throughout the video have given me courage to get out my watercolors and practice the techniques you demonstrated. Thanks, Ingrid.

[@teriandrews9569]

I forgot to add that I'm in the USA.

[@danam4403]

Gorgeous galaxy skies and wonderful tips to achieve successful results. You created such beautiful cards. USA

[@juliehowman3912]

I'm in uk, the hop closes on my birthday, so hopefully lick will be on my side. I appreciate your channel, watch you regularly but dont often comment. I love the expression and simplicity of your tutorials.

[@brandyherring907]

I love galaxy cards! They are so beautiful. I am going to try these techniques to mine.

[@joycebarnett8236]

I liked the tree perspective and adding water to remove the color. Thank you for sharing. USA

[@robinbecker9222]

I have never used watercolors before, you make it look so easy. Galaxies are one of mine favorite night scenes, what fantastic cards they would make-US / Florida

[@marciele26]

Beautiful. I can’t say anything except exceptional tutorial love it

Lovely watercolored sky. Enjoyed seeing your techniques for that and also for the trees. Thanks for sharing. USA

[@maggiebrinkley4760]

Oh wow! So many brilliant tips! During lockdown I'm trying to get to grips with watercolour, and your video has been such an inspiration! This scene of the trees silhouetted against the galaxy is absolutely stunning (and I never use that word lightly!) Thank you, also, for explaining how KZbin works and how we can help. Thank you again, and stay well! x (International - UK)

[@carolnicholson877]

That was amazing. The skies you created are gorgeous!!! You are a very good teacher . Thanks. USA

[@colleendewis8781]

you make it look and sound effortless to the point i am finally inspired to go try it. Gotta get through all the stops in this hop too!!!

Hello from KY, USA - Hi Ingrid ... I have been watching you for a while and you can always make me chuckle! Thank you for sharing this video. Looking forward to continuing learning new techniques with you! Love the night sky and trees today ... stunning!!

[@arlenemacasaet841]

Thank you for helping me paint the beautiful night sky. Am reaching for the stars later this evening.

[@kendallbugnacki7878]

USA I’m getting out my watercolors tomorrow- you make it look so easy! Beautiful night sky’s!

[@AlaskaKris1]

I adore all galaxy and Northern Lights tutorials! Since I live in Alaska, I see the real thing! I have to say, the only thing usually missing in Northern Lights tutorials is the color green! We see "curtains" of reds, greens and yellow Northern Lights here. It's something you never forget when you see it! I've done a few cards with a galaxy look but still don't quite get that look! I appreciate your teaching style! Thank you! (USA)

[@kimheggins4632]

Gorgeous....just gorgeous!!!! can't wait to give this sky a try, so beautiful USA

[@heleenvonk832]

What a beautiful galaxy. Love your step b thb step explanation, thanks

[@VElaineA]

Ingrid, thanks for great tutorial that really breaks down the steps. I particularly liked how you showed the creation of the trees. I think I’m going to give this a try! USA Thanks

[@fiannev8457]

I really love galaxy skies. Thanks for this very clear tutorial of how to make it. Always love your tips and definitely like your humor. Enjoying your video from the Netherlands.

[@anitahempe2720]

I want to get more into water color painting. I think you have given me the courage to try, even the trees lol.

[@krisprice8477]

Thank you so much for explaining so much. You make the water coloring easy, but it intimidates me. Beautiful card. USA.

[@judymason9736]

I love the way you teach, Ingrid! Makes me not so afraid to try it! USA

[@barbarabaxter2462]

USA I think I can now actually create one of those beautiful skies! Your techniques are extremely helpful. I will have to dig out my paints and give it a try. After all my unsuccessful attempts, I am so excited to try again. Thank you!

[@Favorites2012mine]

Awesome!! Love your videos. You're a marvelous teacher..., great explanations and your visuals are marvelous. I've only done a galaxy with my ink pads, never watercolor. You've given me the perfect tutorial to learn!! USA

[@paulajulkunen1663]

Hi from an addict to another! I just love,love,love creating skies to my cards. Galaxies, Northern Lights, sunrise, sunset - you name it. I've been practising a lot and I'm slowly getting there. I got many tips from your video, thank you for that. I'm international (Finland)

Hello from Washington state! Ingrid, your painting is beautiful! I've been teaching myself watercolor painting lately. Your video is an inspiration! Thank you!

This is fun!! I don’t feel confident enough yet. Cassie Trask did something beautiful making a galaxy background...she also said while doing it that it gets worse before it gets better! You all are so creative!!! reminds me of my son’s Astro photography with the trees. I’ll get there. I love the inspiration here! No intention here of making videos. I work full time & run an animal shelter. I’m in the USA 🇺🇸

[@denisehbisme]

WOW! I actually think this everytime I watch your videos! I love how you share your process and teach us step by step! Thank you Ingrid... and it is because of the Save the You Tube video Hop that I found you... so I think Justine rocks also! USA

[@beverlybarnhardt1139]

I love your videos Ingrid! I’m def gonna try watercoloring a sky, as I haven’t mastered any of the other sky techniques! You make it look easy! Thank you! USA

[@joycestuart4492]

How timely. My daughter is experimenting with watercolors and painting in general. I love your videos. Thanks so much.

I always feel intimidated trying these sort of backgrounds out. The way you approach it is tempting me to try it our! Beautifully done! Also love your work that is in the background. USA

[@sprytebyrd1]

I've always loved those beautiful starry skies! I'll have to dedicate some practice time and see what I can do! Thanks for the inspiration! USA

[@lesliev7874]

Oh...love the sparkle in these cards. Ha, ha! I'm addicted to cloud photos. I want to fill a whole watercolor pad with paintings. Since I have the time now, maybe I'll start today. We finally have clear skies here in California. Thanks for the inspiration.

I love all of your videos, you do such a great job explaining how to do things, especially for someone who is just learning a new technique. love galaxy backgrounds! Thanks from the US!

[@therealalyse9763]

I love see the face behind the art. Makes it seem more achievable for more! USA

[@audregaer3281]

The couple of galaxies backgrounds that I have tried lack that glowing look that you achieved. You have inspired me to try again. Your/technique for painting trees is another great idea. I wish the KZbin algorhythm would pop your videos up. I have been a subscriber with notifications since a previous Crafty KZbinr hop but this is the first time I have seen one of your videos since then. USA

[@Betty.H4]

Love your honesty!!! I just started doing water color and so happy I found you!!! TYFS Stay Safe :-) Canada

HI Ingrid! So glad you are doing this. I discovered you thru Justine and Catherine Pooler. I like your teaching style. Its informative, the videos are clear, and honest. I like this galaxy technique.
