[@shawnbarry6372]

Absolutely loved this tutorial. Your instructions are easy to follow and you are always so encouraging. Love your Mini Monday Madness. I'm new to them, so I haven't done them all, but I was sorry to learn that you stopped them. They are fun to do. Thanks for your instruction.

[@melissasmith7921]

I am brand new to watercolor and I really like the ink and wash style!

[@denisegurdineer1618]

Love ink and wash! Enjoyed this tutorial Thank-you!!

[@rebeccadelaney2769]

I love ink and wash tutorials! I'm new and so it always makes what I paint look so much more advanced! LOL. .The way you break down the shapes when you draw things out is incredibly helpful. Thanks for all your tips!

[@ellencrimitrent]

I'm so glad!

[@TerryMcGearyScotland]

It’s a technique I have tried to copy as well. Have a search for Mhairi (?) Hedderwick who illustrates her own books with ink and wash landscapes. I love the effect.

[@artsylady3187]

all the students laugh in my ART college course when My professor YELLS at me NO LINES>>>NO LINES>...LOL....he hates the use of any lines around subjecsts...LOLOL ...I love the look of ink lines

[@janetrusterucci3232]

.hi Ellen I am a newbie and I enjoy your watching and learning from your videos. Thank you. A question I have is this….i wanted to support your Patreon but wanted to pay for a full year in advance but I couldn’t figure out how. Can you share please?

[@kathyschieb6686]

I actually Love line and wash. I love the new tutorials you have been adding. The Matisse one was great too

Thanks Ellen . Great tutorial . Love ink and wash . Kind regards - Judi - Australia

[@marlah4774]

After doing a previous one of your ink and wash tutorials and staring gleefully at my painting (and not understanding why I had such an emotional response to it) I realized that my favorite book as a child must have also been ink and wash- “Rain” by Peter Spier.

[@ellencrimitrent]

Sweet!

[@energychameleon1319]

You simplified this so wonderfully. It was a fun project that I could do over and over again. I love your art! Thank you ❤

[@beeheart6529]

I love your tutorials and every time am thrilled by the beauty of your work. Thank you for sharing.

[@susanyoung6331]

I REALLY enjoyed this tutorial. My attempts this far have been a little lacking, your shadows and shading have inspired me. Thanks!

[@3rdeyeopen802]

I love ink and wash! So fun! 👍❤️

[@sallypeterson3171]

I stumbled across ink and wash by accident, when painting along with you, a beginner floral arrangement. I was not happy with how mine turned out, so I outlined everything in ink. Suddenly, it came to life and I loved it! I've been in love with ink and wash ever since! I follow along with your videos and have filled a sketchbook with your beginner paintings! Thank you for sharing with us the finer details of using ink and wash! Love your tutorials!!!

[@ellencrimitrent]

Yay!!

[@RendaJane]

Same! And it’s really fun especially when it’s all done.

[@elmariejansevanrensburg2952]

I just love your videos. The way you do it, makes me not scared to try new things.

[@margaretvoorhaar7651]

Ellen, I too love the ink and wash. You asked, a few days ago what we would like to see. Your mini monday madnesses have been such fun. I fire them off to my sisters, who love getting some snail mail. I would enjoy seeing a few of these in series, for example, this cottage in winter and fall and spring. Or our christmas teddy in easter and summer. Tryptychs (sp?) The garden tools in a trio. The winter landscapes in spring and fall. :)

[@ellencrimitrent]

I do minis every now & then they were not getting views like they used to.

[@srpeacock]

This is so beautiful. I'm new to watercolor. I purchased a couple of ink/wash books....but it's nothing like real life tips from you. Wished I had found this channel before I purchased these books. Awesome tutorial....love your Etsy store too. Thanks.

[@stapletontable]

Ellen, I have learned so much from you! Thank you!!

[@carolcavallaro2476]

As we say in NE that’s awesome!

[@ellencrimitrent]

Thx ☺️

[@jeanettecook1088]

I did this one, and the panes are indeed a pain! It is a nice picture though. Simple, fun, relaxing subject.

[@AnneArnold-ir6qo]

this was so much fun. can't wait to try painting my little farmhouse with this technique.

[@janetrusterucci3232]

This was so cute Ellen thank you :-)

[@RendaJane]

I really like this. So sweet 💜

[@ellencrimitrent]

Thank you! 😊

I love ink and wash. I love what you’ve done, I will try this!

[@appolose]

I’ve enjoyed every tutorial I’ve seen you do and this one even more! The ink and watercolor is so pleasant and relaxing for me and you keep it very attainable which I appreciate. I also love your camera personality so much! Thank you for all you put into these videos.

[@ellencrimitrent]

You are so welcome!

[@theartsiecrafter]

Thank you Ellen for doing an ink and wash tutorial. I've been wanting to start learning how to do this as I'm travelling overseas later this year and I want to keep an urban sketch journal of all the places I will be visiting. You've given me the incentive I needed to start practicing today.

[@dianemccain3124]

Love line and wash. Please do some more.

[@cindysouza5017]

I love ink and wash! I just went to your website to look for local workshops 😢😢😢 I saw that you’re having one in Onset and it’s full 😢😢. I just signed up for your newsletter so I won’t miss another local workshop.

[@ellencrimitrent]

Patreon is where I launch workshops & retreats first - after a week if it’s not full I let everybody else know.

[@marlenecornwall]

So sweet! I am encouraged to do this! Drawing done😊

[@DavidPerez-zt3qq]

I love your work. Your are so much fun and so talented. You explain so easily how to do it. BIG FAN here !! Love your calm demeaner , enjoy painting with you Ellen.

[@Mindverve7]

Love, love this cute little cottage! I especially enjoyed learning how to add depth and texture, it looks great and I can’t wait to try it

[@karenchampagne4368]

I love ink and wash. I do it often

[@ellencrimitrent]

me too!

[@user-nf6zf8oj8d]

Hi Ellen. What I really love about your tutorials is even though you are a fantastic and talented artist, you manage to make drawing and painting something that even real beginners like me can accomplish. Thank you 🙏

[@dianasalyers8796]

It's good to try different things.

[@juliemccullough3755]

It’s so cute. Love it. Thank you ❤

[@jamesgreer3953]

I for one love ink and wash. Caroline in NC

[@Camille719]

I am going to try this but will be doing a more refined and detailed version. I changed the window to be double and with shutters. Good video Ellen!

[@tonyaahn540]

I first saw ink & wash on your channel and absolutely love it! Thanks Ellen!

[@ellencrimitrent]

So glad!

[@kristinthemom]

I have another suggestion I want to throw out there. I think you're past this age with your kiddos but I saw a friend do this and thought it was brilliant. She illustrated with line and wash her kiddos bedroom before they upgraded it for her little one growing up. A way to freeze in time a memory of childhood bedrooms. Or I would even be interested in seeing a living room/ kitchen/ inside a coffee shop maybe illustrated? Just a thought/suggestion :) thanks again!

[@leonidasspanos20]

So beautiful!👏🏻

[@afarcu]

Excelente pintura.....gracias

[@ellencrimitrent]

You’re welcome ☺️

[@ellencha5975]

Love it. I’m going to use it for a new house card. Thanks

[@eithnecourtney4854]

Love ink and wash. Thanks so much Ellen❤

[@ellencrimitrent]

You are so welcome!

[@kristinthemom]

Thank you!! I was definitely one who voted for these 🙈 These more simplistic ones are so uplifting for me still as a beginner and I'm always amazed how they come out and how much detail you can really put in them! Thanks for breaking steps down and being a great encouragement in my own artistic adventure. Eager to try to draw my own house someday 🙈

[@FirstnameLastname-lt6we]

Hhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh LA

[@bonniedeboer1036]

It looks fun, even as i dont like ink and wash 😅 but i will give it a try this week :) and i think you teach realy fun with the swoosh kind of sounds you make, it is not so stiff as some of the other teachers, you have a new follower☺️

[@egebaranerisik487]

You and your paintings have poweful positive energy Ellen ⭐ İt's friendly.

[@ellencrimitrent]

[@lindaking9222]

Love ink & wash…nice to have a sketchbook devoted to buildings e.g. cottages etc in ink & wash ..

[@christineingram55]

This looks beautiful,the light washes really look fabulous on this painting 🥰

[@ellencrimitrent]

Thank you! Cheers!

[@sylviecharrongauthier7881]

I love ink and wash tutorials. I will do this one and offer it to my brother for his birthday. I also have the exact paper your use and also a nice frame. Sometimes I have to wait to do some of your tutorials simply because I have to get the a few supplies (p.ex. a sea sponge). Thank you so much for teaching us how to draw too.

[@ellencrimitrent]

Wonderful!

[@SA-xw6ui]

This is so nice Country side house

[@ellencrimitrent]

[@ellencrimitrent]

Wonderful!

[@anneedmunds9025]

I have painted and drawn in ink this one twice and it gets better. I am now doing houses which is different from birds and flowers. It is good to have a new challenge. Good art to everyone

[@judyhoomalamalama]

LOVE THIS . THANK U

[@lizdouglas1952]

I simply love this, Ellen. It's precious, with detail, and soft colors. I watercolor on the Fabriano 5 x 7 often, and the block keeps the paper from warping. Your design will help to get me back on track with painting. Thank you!😘🏡

[@ellencrimitrent]

Great to hear!

[@TheLiznz]

[@jessicagrill425]

I love ink and wash. But then, I always enjoy your tutorials. I live in MA and would love to go to any workshops you are putting on. I would’ve loved to have gone to the one in France but it just was not possible. Do you ever do them close to your home?

[@Zar2244]

Love it 🤗

[@lisaannef]

LOVE, LOVE, LOVE this Ellen! I have a Pentalic sketchbook and it does not love lots of layers of watercolor and so I have been working on ink and wash more til I can finish this book. Please do more of them :)

[@ellencrimitrent]

Wonderful!

[@KRSH_2]

Ellen! This is so timely...I want to paint my best friends' house next door because they moved out of state. As a beginner watercolorist, I wasn't sure how to approach it, but you gave me the inspiration I needed. It's perfect. Question: There's a big tree covering a third of the house in the front. I wonder if I should include it or leave it out?

[@ellencrimitrent]

Either or - depends if u want it exact or interpreted

[@lindakuck5981]

Omg! I just bought the same paper! How exciting 😀 can't wait to try this!

[@ellencrimitrent]

Have fun!

[@LBGirl1988]

Love these!!! ❤
