[@bobsmith1478]

Intense sky.I like this painting. The poppy is the flower of the VFW. Thank you Maria.

[@mariamorjane]

Your very welcome Bob :)

[@maryruthenburg917]

Your painting is so alive and free!! Wonderful! I mainly do acrylic, but you are luring me to watercolor. I also think your KZbin tutorials are beautifully done so that we see the actual painting, information and instruction without needless jabber.

[@mariamorjane]

So happy to hear this Mary, thank you so much :)) Always working on improving my videos so they are easy to understand 🤗💕

[@isalawton6239]

Hi Isa :) Thank you so much! have a great weekend :)

[@anm0086]

You make it look so easy, but it takes such skill to create these values with watercolor. It's so pretty, you got a lovely aesthetic

[@mariamorjane]

Hi! Thank you so much. Really appreciate your comment 😊I'm a self taught artist and I believe that with a lot of patience and practice everyone can get there 🌺😋

[@jeanmcdowall1]

Your videos are done so well. Your instructions are so clear...and I appreciate the TEXT explanations. Great job as an instructor and beautiful paintings. I also agree with other comments that the piano accompaniment is a nice addition to your demonstration. Very much a meditation. Thank you!

Мария, как всегда вы рисуете что-то очень прекрасное! Очень долго не смотрела ваши картины о чем сожалею, но надеюсь что все пропущенное в скором времени увижу! Удачи и всего наилучшего! Ирина Левина.

[@mariamorjane]

Привет, Ирина, так приятно тебя снова увидеть, спасибо за то, что остановились :) Я публиковал много видеороликов, начиная тему отдыха, спасибо за возвращение :) Спасибо за вашу поддержку💕💕

[@iraidaolevia5086]

Maria Raczynska Привет Мария! Всегда рада поддержать, тем более когда видишь ваши работы, эту красоту, разнообразие сюжетов! Я про вас не забыла, иногда заглядывала на ваш канал, но писать было некогда. У меня долго болел сын и я была занята его здоровьем. Рисовала мало, не было желания и настроения. Но слава Богу все кажется позади и я рада снова вас похвалить и порадоваться вашим успехам и тому, что число ваших поклонников увеличивается! Я за вас очень рада и никогда не сомневалась, что так будет! Ну а я буду потихоньку учиться у вас и наверстывать упущенное время. Так,что желаю нам с вами больших успехов в творчестве! Ирина.

[@gabrielehenning4514]

Deine Landschaftsbilder sind auch sehr schön. Ich habe mich an einigen schon versucht, mit dem Ergebnis war ich aber nicht ganz zufrieden. Ich wünsche dir eine schöne Woche. Liebe Grüße Gaby

[@mariamorjane]

Vielen Dank Gaby, bitte mach weiter :) Es braucht Zeit, um dorthin zu gelangen, wo du mit Aquarellen sein willst :) Studiere alles was du machst, die Art und Weise Wasser und Pigment bewegen, beobachten und nicht eilen :)

Thank you so much :)🌹

[@margaretbrownhill5919]

Fabulous as always, I'm so spoilt for choice with what I want to do but will have to start with your beginner videos which are stunning in their own way. So glad I stumbled over you x

[@mariamorjane]

Thank you so much for your nice comments Margaret, I really appreciate your support 😉I have few beginners videos, I am still lucking on a video with just art supplies and what you need. I will work on that, I promise☺️💕

[@margaretbrownhill5919]

Maria Raczynska It's ok there is no rush I am working on a graphite picture at the moment which is taking me right out of my comfort zone it's challenging but am using the grid method to draw from a photo. It's slowly coming along and am pleased and amazed that I can do this. There are a lot of hours left for me to do so I am watching your videos as a change. I will star the watercolour hopefully in about a weeks time when this current project is finished I won't allow myself to get distracted from it lol x

[@mariamorjane]

Thank you and that's wonderful Margaret, have fun painting :) xx

[@ThatGirlTatianaH]

AWWWWW just what I wanted to see !!! Soo beautiful !!! 🥀🌷💐💖 Maria can you please show the process of how you put paper on the glass, spraying or wetting and all, most people are visual, I think everybody would appreciate to see that...if you can of course...hope I'm not asking/bugging too much...LOL...❣🤗👍🏻

[@mariamorjane]

Hi Tatiana 😊I will be happy too! I will show it in one of my videos next week I hope. I have a lot of videos to edit that are sitting on my computer just need to figure out which one was it where I was showing the glass etc. But I don't do anything to it, I lay the paper flat on a glass and start painting, while I am painting the paper gets sucked to the glass from all the water and paint I have been using ;) It's a good idea to wet the paper first underneath tho 🤗🌸💐

[@sylviahall559]

Absolutely brilliant thank you

[@mariamorjane]

Thank you 🤗

[@wendykelcey1246]

Hi Maria! When change colour ( except for the tree background,)do you let it dry between layers? Thank you 🌺

[@gjartstudios9970]

Ale sliczne! Uwielbiam maki ❤

[@mariamorjane]

Dziekuje ci bardzo Gosiu :)

[@gjartstudios9970]

Tak przy okazji, wczoraj wyprobowalam hot-pressed paper. Rzeczywiscie jest duzo inny od cold-pressed, ale mimo wszystko nie wyszlo mi to, co chcialam 😕 Moze dlatego, ze uzylam rozwodniony gouache, a nie watercolour w tubkach... a moze po prostu artysta do kitu 😂😂😂

[@mariamorjane]

Nie przejmuj sie🤗🙏🏼za pierwszym razem nie wszystko zawsze wychodzi :)😅 trzeba sie przyzwyczaic do bialego gouache i hot pressed :)👍🏼 bialy gouache powinien byc raczej uzyty jako dodatek, do rozswietlania (dodawania swiatla) albo w galaxy painting jako droga mleczna, musisz troche poprobowac bo napewno trzeba sie nauczyc kontrolowac i wode i farby :) wiec nie poddawaj sie, praktyka czyni mistrza☺️💕

[@gjartstudios9970]

A czy jest jakas roznica pomiedzy kolorowym gouache i watercolour w tubkach? Wczoraj uzylam tych ostatnich. Z wierzchu wygladaja tak samo... 😯Teraz zamowilam watercolour w tubkach i zobaczymy, czy bedzie jakas roznica.

[@mariamorjane]

Gosiu, ten white gouache co ja uzywam nazywa sie designer's gouache color: permanent white. Ja wszystkie akwarele mam w tubkach. Gouache tez jest w tubce. Designers gouache i watercolors to akwarele tyle ze designers gouache jest "opaque" a akwarele sa bardziej przezroczyste. Nie probowalam jeszcze innych kolorow Designers gouache ale jestem na drodze do tego zeby wyprobowac pelny zestaw kolorow ☺️🌺

[@linaD08]

Maria, bravo! What type of pencil do you use to do your sketh that it does not show on the final painting?

[@mariamorjane]

Hi Lina, just the most simple pencil you can find :) When I do a sketch I don't draw lines hard, very soft, and if you do it first too hard, you may want to go over your sketch with an eraser- just to soften it up. With all the outlines I create with watercolors, you can never really see a pencil sketch. Thank you!

[@danielleguy78]

Beautiful! Thank you!

[@mariamorjane]

Thank you so much Danielle!

Thank you Polly🤗

[@a.m.9659]

Hi! Your art is amazing. Do you stretch your watercolor paper before you paint ? It seems you do not but I am not sure if you paint straight on block or not. Again, stuninng and so detailed...

[@mariamorjane]

thank you so much Alessio :)) so kind of you! no, I don't stretch my watercolor papers, I paint straight out of blocks/pads, sheets etc ;)

[@a.m.9659]

Maria Raczynska, thanks for fast reply! I paint from a Fabriano watercolour block but it deforms because of the water making valleys into the paper and makes me a problem while doing wahses. And paper curls up when I finish the painting. Does that mean it is low quality ?

[@mariamorjane]

Hi Alessio, I have the same Fabriano watercolor block and I've had the same problem with this paper... it's like it can't handle the amount of water and paint... its strange but I know what you mean... so I don't paint on Fabriano anymore, it disappointed me too many times... I honestly don't think it's a good paper. I rather invest more in better high quality papers because you can do so much more. I mostly only paint on Arches papers. Arches never disappointed me. thank you.

[@mariamorjane]

Hi :) Thank you so much!!

[@sarahcheung686]

I plan to paint this next time, but i have a question about mask fluid . if i put on mask fluid how long should i remove it, i read someone said need to remove it within 24 hours, otherwise it will be difficult to remove it. This will be issue because sometimes i need a few days of free time to paint. so i need to make sure i can manage it well, thanks.

[@mariamorjane]

Hi Sarah :) When I put art masking fluid, I usually use a thicker layer, and that definitely helps to peel it off easier. Often I prep my pencil sketch the night before and apply the art masking fluid so it has that time to dry (because of it's thick layer) so its ready for me to start painting with watercolors in the morning.. I pretty much always finish my painting same day, within 1-2hrs so I've never left art masking fluid for more than 24hrs. You can always test it on a small piece of paper. I never had a problem. The only problem I had was when I didn't let art masking fluid dry all the way.. now that's a disaster lol

[@sarahcheung686]

Thanks a lot. it is very useful. I will tried small pieces first.

[@mariamorjane]

your welcome Sarah :)

[@gracemartin282]

What brand brushes do you use in this painting? I love your paintings thank you for sharing them :)
