Definitely trying this one! Your step by step is very clear! Thank you. I have been learning watercolour for about a year now off of KZbin...(bought both your books..😉💞, love them). getting lessons from KZbin artists. Started off loose, learning how the paint moves with water, used your strokes teaching to see how the brushes work, etc. I am 72 years young proving that learning should never stop. Think I mentioned that to you before😉😄! I'm am doing more realistic finer painting now. And will be studying your work more closely... wasn't quite up to your quality! But I think I can follow now. Love the details of your work..just bought some smaller brushes to do this detailing. I want to thank you for helping me with this journey, your teaching has been and will continue to be invaluable 💕💕 Wanda (Canada 🇨🇦)

@@deWintonPaperCo I’ve got both of your books and I love them and use them a lot but I’ve discovered that I learn better by watching someone actually do whatever it is I want to learn. I’ve had a go, very successfully, at so many of your you tube tutorials, your such clear, fuss free teacher. I’m planning to join your patron channel later this year 😊

[@angelika3260-l2p]

Harriet - can you use Liquitex ink with your usual paint brushes without ruining them? I see you are so that probably answers my question, but I thigh acrylic was now water based so hard to remove? Beautiful tutorial as always 😊

[@deWintonPaperCo]

Yes it’s fine to use and won’t ruin brushes just make sure you don’t let it dry on them. Give them a thorough wash after

[@wandascott3678]

Just a question please Harriet. Does the temperature of the water we use make a difference? Wanda 🇨🇦

[@deWintonPaperCo]

Gosh that’s a good question. Honest answer is I don’t know. I’ve always just used cold water out of the tap
