Mixing watercolor paint for a Red Eyed Tree Frog

[@joankiely3614]

Ever so cute! Love the way that you keep a straight face while showing the bloopers 😘. You look far too sweet & kind to produce bloopers & still keep a sweet look on your face…………. I can’t keep from smiling when I see them 🤣. Gorgeous channel, love it, cheers 😊❤️🥰😍😘💕

Wonderful little frog painting, wonderful video! I often say that "when I grow up, I want to paint just like Louise De Masi"; however, I'm already 65! I better get a move on! At the end of the video when you put the indigo in the shadows I couldn't help but suck in a bit of air. Putting that much dark paint on, even in the shadows, would have scared the be-Jesus out of me! I can do it, but it takes me 2 to 3 times to get it that dark. You are my heroine! And love the out-takes, too. They make you human!

[@stellamay576]

Louise, je vous trouve super! vos cours sont vraiment professionnels et donne le goût d'en apprendre encore. On m'a fait comprendre que pour faire comme ce que vous faites, il faut avoir du papier 100% coton, sans cela, ça marche pas... Alors que l'on se décourage.... il faut avoir le BON papier! Je continue à regarder vos vidéos, Merci pour tout!

[@roxannelewis6490]

I only just found your videos and they are the best! Aside from the clear and informative content, they are interesting and entertaining. Thank you for sharing the out takes too. It’s good to see that others stumble over their words occasionally also. 😍

[@rudismalkasten293]

I love your take outs at the end of your wonderful video! I had to laugh so much! :-)

How dlelighful for us that you did another frog painting. The colors are so satisfying! Thank you for the time you put into sharing your lovely wonderful talents.

[@artwithalexander5359]

love that you include the blooper reals at the end. not having them in the main video keeps them from being distracting but having them at the end is nice becuse it shows that you are human like the rest of us. also, love the frog, red eyed tree frogs have always been a personal favorite.

[@kdmylove]

You're looking pretty today louise

[@MariaGonzalez-km8rg]

I really love the way you teach us, easy to learn.... I am a principiant in water color 🎨 tecnic, I painted a similar frog on a bromelia 🌿 plant 🐸 in water color 🎨 last year...

[@stevewierhake8491]

So glad I stumbled upon these videos from Louise. The careful explanations of certain techniques being demonstrated are wonderful - including the close-up camera work. Also - the outtakes at the end are fun, and a reminder that some real work goes in to producing the videos.

Your videos are a great way to start the weekend. I've used the buff titanium on a painting of our cat who has cream and ginger long fur.

[@alisonhendry2928]

Fabulous as always! I was just starting my own red eyed tree frog and love the colour mixing choices you made to get that lovely green, so I will follow your ideas. Can’t go wrong it’s Louise de Masi!!! Love how you teach and how delicate yet detailed your work turns out. I am loving the Patreon and skillshare tutorials too. I am considering adding the da Vinci maestro brushes to my crZy collection of too many brushes, but want to know how long that glorious tip lasts. I have trouble with sables going blunt on me over time, so it is getting painfully expensive. Perhaps I paint too dry on cold press and wear them out? Do you have trouble with the points disappearing with these brushes? Thanks for another lovely KZbin...

[@mossmade5x5]

I adore this little frog, your work is so beautiful. I now realize why I have not been quite satisfied with other water colorists I follow on KZbin. Their work is beautiful but they don't let the medium "do its thing". I don't have the right words to describe the difference. I think it is the looser style, the charging and blending you use. I tried to find the original pix you used on the Wildlife website. The red-eyed cutie was posed differently. QUESTION: In general, are students that follow your posts able to sell what we paint and if so, how would I give you credit? I understand the reference painting for your current post, I would need to follow the Wildlife website regulations, additionally.

[@sailajaallanki4549]

Louise, do you use a separate brushes to mix colors and to paint ?
