Still watching beginner video because you can always learn something. The best thing, I think, about wet on wet is that you just don't know how it will be 💚💙

This is sooooo helpful! I am new to watercolor. Like, literally the last time I used watercolor paints it was with a set from the dime store when I was 7 or 8, and I had zero instruction (because 2nd grade, haha). I've been wanting to try watercolor again, but I really needed this super beginner kind of tutorial - just the very basic techniques. Thank you!!

[@valperkins6621]

I love that you are doing this series. I've only been using watercolor for a couple of years. This is a great review for me. Also, some of the neighborhood ladies have talked me into doing a little watercolor workshop in a couple of weeks. These are great reminders of the basics. Thanks!

I’ve never been so excited to learn! I burned out of teaching after 19 yrs, followed by an even harder burning out of life. All of it. There is one silver lining, however. I’ve always had an itch to paint beyond teaching, Momming, crafts at home & wine/paint classes I attended only as my teacher salary could afford. And I’ve definitely found my heart’s desire. I cannot wait to learn all the things including be free, just paint. :) You teach the way I learn, so I’m at the beginning, SO in awe of how much learning comes prior to color touching paper! I’ve found my outlet, my passion, the only easy way to communicate on this planet. Thank you for sharing your many talents. I am SO excited to learn and become and create a more joyful ‘rest of my life.’ 😊

[@trinawilliams1395]

Nice. Wonderful way to look at life!! 😊

[@sayusayme7729]

I’m with ya , happy creating 💫

[@SunflowerToshaDiys]

I'll take your advice and start with filling the paper with water and dropping color letting it dry and write bible verses on them. This will be fun for some bible art journaling. ❤

[@LynneMurchie]

Emma...you have brought so many things into focus for me. I love your style and way of showing different effects....and saving paper! I look forward to the future sessions.

[@bsl5788]

I love your videos. Explanations are clear and painting is fun. Thank you!

[@maremacd]

I love those leaves!

[@Dibdib35]

This was super helpful my issue is with how much water I have in my brush and do I use thick pigmented paint for the wet on dry? I also would love to learn how to do shadows. Thank you for taking the time to do this and explain so simply for us simple people 😂.

[@karendirmish2696]

Always learning from you, your explanations are so easy to understand! Karen Dirmish, learner

[@dianemcdonald3900]

Thank you so much! What great examples!!

[@jeanne-marie8196]

What I’m having reinforced from your previous videos is water control! These examples will help me when I am practicing

[@machelleshappyhobbies4977]

I'm having trouble making my watercolor painting look tie dye. I love your videos. Have learned a lot. Thanks for doing these.😊

[@ChantelleArts]

I am loving this series, cant wait for next episode ☺☺☺

[@lauriegentry246]

Thanks Emma. Great techniques! Will you please go into more detail about water control. I've watched some of your other videos, and I still wind up with way too much water.

[@Dibdib35]

Me too. I think in my case I’ll have to practise more.

[@shinysparkilylights]

me too. always too much or not enough

[@gillgillob]

I would also like more detail on this, including picking up the paint from the palette and mixing it.

[@brigittecourtey3364]

Merci pour cette série de techniques, très bien pour moi et très bien expliquées ❤❤❤

[@lisak9419]

[@mjperks-6322]

So excited to start...it's great to be guided and your style has calming effect and relax manner. Thanks Emma

[@conniewh4189]

My January subscription box was delivered and I’m over-the-top excited with the products! Thank you!

[@christined5575]

Great tutorial -as usual. I also just reviewed your tutorial on the filbert brush. I am re inspired. They not only actually look like flowers , they are simple and beautiful! Well done.

[@ladyhollman9534]

Awesome depth of field, detailed example (pic 2). I’d call that a watercolor f-stop 😊 Wonderful teaching in the use of the two techniques.

[@nancypyter1511]

A great video Emma, thank you for showing those techniques of wet vs dry.🥰

[@kimstewart9462]

Thank you for this. I’m new to painting in general but you have inspired me to try water color. Thank you for sharing your knowledge.

[@mandygee9972]

This new series is absolutely fantastic so thank you Emma 😊x

[@ppetets002]

thank you for doing this. I'm new to watercolor, it's so much fun!

[@elsbethnietschmann947]

Thank you for sharing this beautiful video. ❤❤❤ I love the way you show me how to make beautiful things to too💐🌻🌼

[@deeana2007]

Your tutorials are very useful, thank you!!! I started using watercolor only for 8-9 months. I can't get that "leaf" effect with my Winsor & Newton watercolors on Canson Watercolor paper or Arches. I don't know the reason, but I assume it's the paper, probably has to be less absorbent or something, the color doesn't flow like that.

[@camilliasornstein8808]

So my colors did not bleed. Did I not use enough water? I wanted to get those "blossoms" of color and couldn't accomplish that technique.

[@marieluiselarsen3827]

Hello Emma, I love the light in your pictures and you colours are very beutiful. How do you paint an oak tree in fall or winter colours. Love from Luise Denmark.😊❤

[@lindyspence5790]

Great video thank you. I am enjoying going back through your beginners drills as well. Learning a few things that I have been having trouble with.

[@sheilacym]

This is really great, Emma…Thank you !!! 🤩🤗🤩💕💕

[@maryannward7771]

Loving this series, ty for sharing!

[@jillbooker7970]

Another informative video! 💕👍🏼

[@carolclifford6097]

Hi Emma, I'm new to your site. Someone just gave me watercolor supplies. I'm a novice acrylic painter on canvas. Can you paint watercolor on a gesso primed canvas? If you want to frame a watercolor painting on paper, do you have to seal it and put a backing on it? If so, can you explain how to do that? Thank-you so much. I really enjoy your videos! Carol

[@kyliescolouringindownunder3098]

Thank you Emma I’m new to water colour. I want to learn how to paint like you do but I do use water colour in my adult colouring books I do have a number of watercolour paints.. but my favourite is my Schmincke Watercolour, Super Granulation paints

[@dannakuhr9718]
