Thank you Kristy! I've been looking for a video like yours showing how to sketch from a photo before adding watercolor. You're a wonderful teacher. I can't wait for Part 2.

Awesome, thrilled to hear1

[@MedaHalmaciu]

Kristy you are a blessing! I just need to hear you speak and I immediately feel the urge to paint even if I only have 20 min. till the kids wake up 😀

[@KristyRice]

Ohhh Meda, my goodness, thank you!!! 20 minutes is all you need sometimes!

[@jodyefriedman9008]

beautiful lesson Kristy. Thank you for sharing.

[@KristyRice]

You bet, my pleasure!

I got a lot out of this session. I 'm going to do the practice exercises to build my hand strength. Thanks for sharing your knowledge!

[@KristyRice]

Yes the exercises will really help! Warm up is so important. I was painting in church yesterday and it had been a few days since I'd last painted. My hand was shaky and unsure...it wasn't until about 15 minutes later that my hand got into the groove so to speak. i should have done some exercises first!

I love you Kristy!! You remind me so much of the Resource Nurse Michelle at my old job, she was an excellent teacher, assertive, and so incredibly sweet!! And she was such an incredible friend, you have that same ..... aura lol You are wonderful girl!! God bless you !

[@KristyRice]

Oh my goodness what wonderful words you've shared, I am honored!

I struggle so much with sketching! I am really wanting to improve my sketching skills! Love this! It is helping me so much to loosen up and finally be able to expressively sketch. I am also not a realistic artist, but I still want to be able to sketch and add this skill to my painting technique. I am just Not confident enough to paint without a sketch yet. One day hopefully, just not right now! This is so helpful and the instructions and tips really are so helpful!

[@KristyRice]

Apologies for the late reply but thank you!

Hi Kirsty. I accidentally fell upon your site while going through my saved searches and thank gosh I did. The way you explain your sketching seems so easy to follow, I think even I will be able to do this. I'm really excited to be able to follow you. I am very new to watercolour and drawing so looking for all the help I can muster. By the way, your work is absolutely AMAZING. ;-D

[@KristyRice]

Thanks so much Jayne! It is so difficult to explain sketching so I'm happy to hear I'm making a bit of sense! Would love to see what you create!

[@juliemontoya5476]
