Very interesting video thanks so much for your sharing 😁🌞🌈

[@creativespark7371]

I just found your channel last night, and browsed through some videos before bed and subscribed. This morning, I am watching your 30 days of watercolor florals tutorials, and I definitely feel like I have found a treasure trove! I just recently started trying to learn loose watercolor techniques. I have always created semi realistic and illustrative drawings to paint, but I never got into loose watercolor (until now). I am soooo glad I found your channel! Thanks so much! Looking foward to painting the flowers and watching other and future videos! 💗 🤗

[@rociocruz2786]

Kristin,your Chanel si great,I más learning a lot with your tips!🤗🥰❤

[@donnacarraway9182]

Great video/information!! Thank you!

[@BeeGeeTee]

Amazing tips and what a pretty painting! I'm going to mix these myself and write the mixes down for reference. Watching this did wonderful things for my brain! Color really is therapeutic 🥰

[@kristinvanleuven]

Yea I agree! Thank you 💕

[@forsafetymode]

[@jeanvestri9733]

So helpful! I might watch this on repeat until it feels automatic.

[@user-dm5vq5wz8m]

Thank you so much! This was incredibly helpful! So appreciated!

[@kristinvanleuven]

Glad it was helpful!

[@WatercolorWizardry]

How fun! This makes me want to share my palette and how I mix too. 🥰

[@samgonzalez-harte2426]

Such a fantastic video Kristin 🌟 not only so very useful to watch the different colour mixes but your comments on what to use them for!🌟 And watching you create that little landscape with just those colours too is magical!✨😍 Thank you so much for sharing!🥰

[@patmorris4174]

Thank you for sharing your pallet picks and how you mix colors. Very helpful!

[@Amberlanewatercolor]

I love doing a vignette too… I’m outdated with you then 😂😂

[@MaryContrary1]

I'm writing this down too. So informative! Thank you ❤

[@cathrynclark5287]

[@niks966]

Amazing channel

[@kristinvanleuven]

Thank you so much!

[@lpayne91]

A very helpful video, thank you! most of your colours are also in my palette, though mine are Winsor and Newton paints. I feel I’d like to try Daler Rowney once these run out as I’ve quite a few artists using them on you tube too 😊

[@CherColo]

I like that palette that you can push up from the bottom. Can you share the maker?

[@ingridkrueger4961]

Very helpful, thank you! Is the brush you are using in the video a number 0?

[@kristinvanleuven]

Yes, it is! A Polina bright round size 0
