I totally forgot to talk about the brush pen! Unfortunately, I couldn't get comfortable with it, so I used my beloved Neptune brushes to paint the portrait! ^^

[@sanyuktashekawat106]

Wow you're so talented ♥ I haven't tried brushpens yet so maybe would give it a try 😉

[@_GreenSkies_]

Neptune brushes are so good! Also, those metallic watercolors look aMAZing on black paper. I have a set and they are so fun to play with

[@vaniadeoliveira8681]

I have the palette of Sakura koi to, the mine has 24 colors, i dont like so much the brush too, i think is to small, but i use anyone that has the water storage, because in my City is so hard to find a paint brush to watercolour... I really like your draws and you are so talent, i want it to know what type of college you did or do, i only have sixteen and i still dont decide what area of art do in college

[@synovelle]

I use white watercolor once my paints have dried, to get a light white layer over my painting- typically to get a fog-like cloud or haze, lighten something without losing the original color’s opacity, create stars on a night sky, etc. I could use white acrylic or ink, but usually I want my watercolor painting to be entirely watercolor-texture.

[@mothkip]

Wow paper truly makes a big difference

[@tonyrichengod9280]

I would say paper is the most important supply. You can make great paintings with cheap paints and brushes if you paint on high-quality paper (like Arches), but not viceversa

[@christineingram55]

Oh Lioba she is just adorable..you have captured her personality and her skin is so beautiful just so realistic,you were right to change paper ..I hope you will have a got to do a few more children she is just delightful ..Made my weekend watching you lift her up off the white paper ..it’s like magic 😀

[@wladapoljakova7006]

I hardcore love that portrait!!! It's so beautiful, your friends will probably cherish it their whole life.

[@mokachoco89]

This looks so gorgeous and the little girl is so adorable! And nice techniques, it was very informative and entertaining ☺️

[@egypt4214]

You’re such an amazing teacher! Thank you for showing me such wonderful techniques. Your art is beautiful 💙

[@alenaantalikova3131]

great combination, pencils + watercolor, looks magnificent !!!

[@4thDan]

Thanks for this video! Gave me insights on using watercolor pencils in painting/portraits! It opened a whole new world for me to explore! Thank you!

[@melastname6481]

My favorite one out of ALL your lovely paintings!

[@kristas.gramens3430]

Lioba, your tutorials inspired me to try watercolors and one of my friends just asked me to illustrate the cover for his book. My next project is going to be a portrait of my daughter! Thank you so much! I had no idea watercolors were so versatile. These videos are so inspiring.

[@KimberlyCrick]

I'm sorry you had to start over, that paper didn't work out for me either, but there's no real replacement for a quality 100% cotton paper when you do a lot of layers. I am excited though - Strathmore just announced new sketchbooks made with cotton on their Instagram. That will be nice to have a higher quality paper in a journal for travel and they tend to be an affordable brand. Her skin looks so beautiful with all the different colors in it, especially the green/teal blue shadows, and the red/pink near her finger tips. I appreciate you talking about creating that illusion of skin out of a lot of colors. Sometimes I don't think about it enough while painting and just reach for a diluted burnt umber and a red for blush. Green is never a color I think about when I think "skin" lol :)

[@bellefleur4089]

I love love love this work. Not just because I have kids myself.. This picture is (for me) by far the best one, I have seen being made by your hand! :)

[@paulettecampbell8468]

Absolutely stunning, your technique is simply beautiful ❤️

[@rosanesilva6830]

Lioba, adoro seu trabalho!! estou me esforçando para aprender essa linda técnica ''watercolor'', mas ainda preciso muito treino!

[@luked8695]

I have never seen anybody achieve this level of photorealism with watercolor. Incredible.

[@CJ-rt5nd]

Absolutely cute painting ♥️♥️♥️😊

[@MultiPassionateCreator]

You're an amazing artist!!! Can't wait to take some of your classes!

[@hearanwon7290]

Wow.... this is purely amazing... especially the way you contour the face

[@kellypham7867]

Beautiful!💕 She's so cute!😍 Btw i have the same watercolor, the tiny one.

[@misspetite9285]

The artwork is amazing

[@herbie2899]

I love the voice over ! Very informative and helpful, keep up the great work 👍🏽😁

[@kirkpatticalma7911]

Great Lioba. Very smart advice and explanation.

[@Benphyx]

I love your art style ! This artwork is insane, congratulation 💪

[@ronaprescott4007]

This is absolutely gorgeous

[@KrystalAnne926]

So incredibly beautiful. You’re amazing!

[@Renilou2]

Beautiful work! It's not always easy to find the right paper for the right subject. I personally do best with my portraits using 100% cotton rag paper. Strathmore has that in their line called Gemini. I like Winser & Newton 100% cotton the best because its internally sized. It's wonderful.

[@HailDanielle]

Your art is so inspiring and beautiful.

[@kimwicks5540]

I actually use White watercolors sometimes 😅 I use when I need to make a color more opaque (It also turns the color into a more pastel tone) or when I need light white details, like when painting Galaxy's.

[@skullingtonfly]

Absolutely gorgeous ❤️

[@vinnytnecniv]

Wow your amazing ,stunning painting x

[@cherieadamsdodd256]

This is just beautiful ❤️❤️❤️

[@jasminelane79]

I also loved your technique with the the color pencils I did not know luminous colored pencils blended like that

[@letsgodrawing1753]

Beautiful watercolor look good with detail realistic brilliant work :D

[@coopart1]

Your control of watercolor, values, color, hard and soft edges is masterful Lioba. ! I find children hard to paint with all the subtle value and color changes.

[@MoumitasV.L.O.G]

Oh wow.. she looks soo cute 😍

[@matikomamaladze6644]

absolutely wonderful

[@modernfineartandcraft8404]

Very beautiful, and the pencil is in skilled hands, there is no doubt about your skills, great, really great.

[@smooth_Koala]

love love love the way u color skin

[@vaniadeoliveira8681]

So cute she trying put the pieces of the brush together

[@siegmundmaria9057]

So was von süß!! Danke fürs Zeigen.

[@jamespfillmore1602]

So so beautiful

[@ageloe]

Wow so cute!

[@rolascab]

Hi! I'm glad to see new video. I wish you have an excellent weekend !! ... ✌😊

[@hafsa26]

Beautiful portrait of Zainab! Thank you for sharing. God Bless

[@thefrugalcrafter]

Gorgeous! Thanks for sharing:)

[@candykelly2705]

I had no idea The Frugal Crafter watched other people's tutorials. Makes sense though, now that I think about it. lol

[@artualpseu3691]

This.....is so amazing😭😱😱

[@gracek_artist]

This is beautiful. I underestimated the challenge of drawing children and this was very helpful!

[@magna8738]

i use white watercolours to get hazy or cloud-like effects, it's actually very useful.

[@GS__]

White watercolor and pencils can be used to lighten/brighten or create pastel colors. Same way you use your white oil paints.

[@estudiofrancadedesenho]

Sua técnica é de nível elevadíssimo. Parabéns

[@kimharbaugh]

So beautiful 😍

[@srkofficial]

Amazing colourful drawing keep it up

[@shawnmarson6644]

[@alonsiu]

UFFFF, que bien, te felicito! Saludos desde Chile!

[@michaelmcewan432]

Excellent work

[@rachaelpeterson1767]

I love how it looks like she is popping off the page.

[@amateurartsmm5194]

do you have tips for using watercolors and the recommended watercolor notebooks

[@lizziedae91]

white watercolor is a great way to make pastel colors for painting items like desserts just by mixing with other colors instead of buying new tubes/pans

[@rovercorneliozumaran9034]

En el momento que usas los colores, deja de ser completamente una obra a la acuarela, saludos

[@MARTHACOBA2007]

Awesome!!!!

[@kissiesosie6331]

Haha um I'm the person that uses white watercolor I thought that too but I started using it for mistakes & such

[@ArtistRahulPal]

Nice work

[@Deattive]

Very very beautiful.. 👍🏼😍😍

[@gingerpie1978]

Amazing

[@wladapoljakova7006]

Sakura makes amazing products, I love their micron pens for abstract scratching shadows! It's maybe a weird question but how come your paper seems to "eat" the paint? when you apply it, it looks pretty vibrant but then when it dries it gets all pretty and smooth and muted! When I try making those same abstract effects, they always turn out way too vibrant when they dry up, while I want them natural and muted! Do you think that's an issue with my paint or rather the paper? I use hot pressed Hahnemühle Brittania paper and W&N Cotman watercolors. Or do I just need to add more water?

[@julietted2865]

Hi! thanks for sharing, very nice and interesting :) Question though: I'm looking for a side-by-side comparaison of simple watercolour, watercolour+coloured pencil, and eventually watercolour+gouache… I can't find anything but I'm sure it must exist - any pointers? Otherwise a video on that would be great!

[@Victoriai-y2m]

Youre such a wonderful artist You sound and carry yourself like you care so much about your craft :) I hope i can one day find something im passionate about Thank you for inspiring me! Im giving architecture a shot, and while im not sure i like it just yet, i have hope

[@LiobaBrueckner]

Thank you so much for your kind words!

[@sharontreacy9337]

I just love her work! She is amazing. I love her upbeat personality also. So very talented! Beautiful. Sincerely MercuryFlame

[@dougg1075]

Very nice

[@kavitabhandariarts205]

Very beautiful:):)

[@rainbowfox1934]

Try Daniel Smith metallic paints. They are transparent.

[@stevieg3078]

When you use your watercolor pencils do you ever go back and wash over the pencil shading with water?

[@reenissketchbook557]

This looks amazing! Is there anything you can't do?!

[@queenbunny9899]

what pencil should i use to draw with if im gonna use watercolors for painting ? is it H pencil or ??

[@aiswaryasubhash882]

Hi, i am from india and i love your works and your channel. I also love to paint although i haven't taken any classes. I would love to start oil painting but i really don't know what materials i need. can u mention that in ur video if possible

[@Favoricci]

КРАСИВО! Спасибо!))

[@E.McK-Crib]

What paper did you end up using?

[@ajsuflena156]

my great grandmother is turkish and my name is after her daughter zeinab (spelt differently)!

[@TexasTom46]

Beautiful portrait! How long did this (secondP painting take you from start to finish?

[@fudgecake4633]

I think she said around 3 hours

[@baekseulhyun6762]

What colors do you use as shadows for the face?😭😭

[@multiversomental6893]

Hi! fatnastic tutorial. Can you tell me what type of paper you use to be able to combine watercolor and pencils correctly? when I use a granular paper that absorbs the watercolor well I get a bad effect with the texture of the pencil.

[@SpectrumArtStudio]

Hi Patricia - When I am working on a watercolour piece adding colour pencil detail, I use hot press watercolour paper (Arches is good but other brands are available) because it is a smooth texture and doesn't show the grain of the paper when using the colour pencil. Hope this helps SAA 🎨 👍🏻 👩🏻‍🎨

[@liliastobbeart]

Du malst echt krass. Das ist einfach unglaublich

[@LiobaBrueckner]

Awww, danke!!! ^^

[@jasminelane79]

I love it really beautiful! Also, what kind of tape do you use for the paper? I always seem to destroy the paper :(

[@SpectrumArtStudio]

Hi Jasmine - I have tried lots of different tapes including scotch tape and I have found that washi tape is the best. this is with watercolour paper though. Hope this helps SAA 🎨 👍🏻 👩🏻‍🎨

[@liudmiladelcastillo4444]

What was the name of your planet again? You r out of this world!!! Beautiful work!!

[@vaishnavidubey7607]
