ATTENTION BEGINNERS: Calm & Carefree Flower Easy Loose Floral Spray in Watercolors Step-by-Step!

[@debcavan]

Beautiful. I love that you not only teach us how to paint but give us hints on how to make it interesting such as not having everything the same. That is boring not only to see but to do. Thank you so much. You are so appreciated.

[@lieslsartisticstudio]

You are so kind! Thank you for your lovely comment, I’m so happy you enjoyed the tutorial. I appreciate you taking the time to watch today. Happy painting my friend!

[@AshleyMartin-f3x]

I feel like giving up I just can't get it right

[@lieslsartisticstudio]

I am so sorry you’re feeling discouraged, but I hope you won’t give up, you may just need a break from this particular project. If you let me know what aspect you’re struggling with maybe I can help. ❤️

[@debcavan]

Don't give up. You have your own style. Even Leisl would not be able to duplicate exactly this painting. It would be different. You will learn each time you try something. It also makes a difference if you are not using really good paper. Certain colors act differently than others. Some do wet on wet wonderfully and others just don't seem to spread. Sometimes the supplies are the problem, not you. Always view your painting from six feet away . There are days things just do not go right. My friend says only one in ten paintings is exceptional..@@AshleyMartin-f3x

[@ev580]

I followed your lead and made my first really successful watercolour painting. So exciting and inspiring. Thank you so much!

I’m so happy you’re giving watercolors a try! 🥰 Don’t worry if it takes a minute to get the hang of, just like anything, it does take some practice. But I think you can definitely do it and watercolor painting is so much fun once as you get it figured out! I wish you the best of luck in your watercolor journey.

[@lainareeves3755]

Wow, Liesl! This is so Springy! It does look like so much fun and all the colors you chose are so perfect! You really have an eye for pigment combinations! I like how you tested your paints. Are some of the colors copies of the other two palettes you showed at the beginning? Also, I was wondering how heavy the water bowl is. I’m considering purchasing it. I so appreciate you! You’re a jewel! 😊💕 💎

[@lieslsartisticstudio]

Hi Laina! It’s always so nice to hear from you. You had a good question about if the colors crossed over, I wasn’t sure actually so I just went and compared. It looks like there are several that crossover from the pan sets to the tubes, but there were actually a lot of differences too, especially with the larger pan set of 52 colors. (The tube set has 36 so I guess naturally there would be some difference there! 😉😅) That was a good question, I’m glad you asked. As far as the ceramic brush wash bowl, it’s probably a little less than 2 pounds. (I personally really love it!) I hope you have a wonderful day today. Take care!

[@lainareeves3755]

Thanks for checking on the colors! I hope it wasn’t too much trouble to do that. Well since you love the wash bowl, I think I'll get it. Still considering the paints since they’re at such a great price. 😊 Again, I so love this weeks's tutorial! A great way to jump into Spring! 💕@@lieslsartisticstudio

[@lainareeves3755]

I meant to ask also, comparing the pans (pink/blue) and these tubes, do you have a favorite?

These paints are another of paul rubens sets

@@lieslsartisticstudio omg thank you so much! You're too kind

[@aprildegele1510]

I really like the color balance, especially between warm and cool. To my eye, you got it spot on. The only tiny thing that I'd have changed is that nearly invisible blue/purple last bit on the right. It could have been more yellow-ish. Mid to left skews a bit heavier on the golden tones, but that's just me. It's beautiful!! Thank you for all you do for us. I'm very happy I found you, having gone down a rabbit hole ;)

[@lieslsartisticstudio]

Well, that’s the great thing about art…as I often say in my tutorials, you are the artist for your work and you can choose to paint it in any way with any colors you like, 😉 I’m just the guide to get your creativity flowing. 🥰 Take care.

[@aprildegele1510]

In my world, your prof was correct. Not only is composition for your main subject a thing, but the greenery and the the little bits. It's rather like the rule of 3, or the rule of odd numbers. Groupings of the main as well as the large, mid, and small elements. The brain sees symmetry and balance. Symmetry between right/left or up/down doesn't necessarily mean it's a reflection, but rather a weight balance unless that imbalance is intentional. It gets complicated after that. Balance means that the piece, when finished, looks whole, finished, and cohesive. Even babies can see the difference between when something is balanced or not. Walking away from a piece is very, very good advice. Do it several times. After each element (like once the flowers are done, and then when you call the leaves done, and at the end just before you call it finished). Taking this little break resets the mind. When you go back and look at it (even though you may have been working for a couple of hours), anything missing or overworked and needs balancing will stick out like a sore thumb. Even to non-artists. Our brains know when something is right and when something is a little off even if you can't pinpoint what. Trust your brain.

[@lieslsartisticstudio]

Yes, the rule of 3’s or even just odd numbers can definitely be helpful when planning a composition, and I agree, we do sort of naturally can see what is balanced and cohesive or not. 😊 Thanks for watching!

Keep up the great work, and thanks for letting me be a small part in your watercolor journey! Take care.

[@ralphherrick596]

very nice....do you use this brand of paint often? what type of paper are you using with this paint? and yes i will be trying this one as well. thankyou for sharing your talent!

[@lieslsartisticstudio]

Hi Ralph! Thanks for your question. I really enjoy using the little pan sets that this company puts out to take with me when I travel, but I don’t use them on a day to day basis. This is my first time ever using their tube paints, they were fun to try out and are a really great cost effective option as far as paints go, but I will probably stick to my professional grade paints for every day painting. Take care my friend. (I forgot to say, I am using Arches brand cold press paper.)

This is so beautiful! I might try this one! Question though... you said you'll stick with your professional brand of paint - what brand do you typically use?

I’m glad you like it! Thanks for your question too, the brand I like to use is M. Graham & Co. watercolor tube paints.

[@helenthomas3101]

Beautiful as always! Can I ask. Should petals always be painted wet on wet ? Or is it your preference? I’ve never done it this way but it looks soo beautiful! ❤

[@lieslsartisticstudio]

Good question Helen, thanks for asking! Painting petals wet on wet is just my personal preference, you can of course paint them however you like and are comfortable with. I just find that the wet on wet helps me get the paint to flow in a softer way, and I can typically blend the colors, or light and dark values better that way because it doesn’t dry out quite so fast. But please feel free to paint them however you wish. 🥰 Take care.

As a beginner, I have trouble knowing what colours to mix with what to get certain colours ....my paint are 12 tubes only to my set

[@lieslsartisticstudio]

Hello again! Color mixing is one of those things that you will get better at with time. At first a lot of it is just experimentation and trying out different combinations. It may be helpful to just pick a day and play around with some color samples to see what you can get. But in the meantime, if you don’t have the exact colors that someone uses on these KZbin videos, that is ok too. Pick out colors that are similar, or even just colors you like or want to use. There is nothing wrong with deviating from the tutorial to fit your needs or create your own unique artwork. ❤️ There are probably also some color mixing tutorials out there that may help get you started. Hang in there my friend!

[@terischiech]

Very pretty and so calming. Prussian Blue sounds just like the country Russia. I'm not a 'grammar nut', you don't sound comfortable saying it.

[@lieslsartisticstudio]

Yes, you’re right, I don’t use that color often and found out I pronounced it wrong when it was too late… 🤷‍♀️ oh well, I guess I know for next time! Thanks for watching. 😊

At THE ACADEMY, where I was born to be educated, I started to impress my teachers, with a "bolster art work", the burnt nuts paint!!! I had beautiful works of them, by then, and as were "tentoongesteld" at the Academy, and placed on their computers!!!Nowadays, I "play" with Mixed Media; not for contentment of the finished products, but, by the FUN it makes me!!! I don't have to 'present', an ARTWORK , anymore.....I'm getting older, waiting for my "eternal death"!!!I might as well have some FUN!!!I don't want to be put in a "home", I want my own home, and this iss it gonna be!!!
