[@olgakoelsch]

Thank you so much for your kind support!🤗🌸🙏

[@NuriaSan-Mauro]

Thank you for this class as I have learned a number of tips that I will use in my next project. A number of white plates and no washing makes a lot of sense. Two brushes I am definitely going to use this tip. I just bought your book last week and I simply love it. Your paintings are magical and I really wish to learn this method. Much appreciation for what you do and for sharing with all of us. nuria san - mauro Ashland, Oregon usa

Two brushes! Great tip ❤ I am just beginning to use watercolor and i found all your tips useful! Thanks for the inspiration

[@olgakoelsch]

You are so welcome! 🤗

[@bettykropff6192]

The tip that will help me so much is using two brushes. So logical, don't know why I didn't think of it! However serveral tips reinforced things I new but had forgotten. Thanks so much.

[@olgakoelsch]

You are so welcome!🤗🤗🤗

[@sm1297]

I liked all the tips but 2 paint brushes ia such an awesome tip! Thanks!

[@olgakoelsch]

Glad it was helpful!🤗

[@conniemesce4093]

I agree with you about washing or cleaning your pallette. It's a waste of paint, it can be activated any time you need that or those colors again! ❤

[@olgakoelsch]

Exactly!! Thank you for your support!🤗

[@azianabdaziz9968]

Thank you for sharing the tips. They are very useful for beginners like myself.

[@olgakoelsch]

Glad it was helpful!🤗

[@beckyaaland6776]

Love it, thank you Olga!!!! I felt better hearing you have “maybe 15” palettes with dried color. I too love the serendipity of picking from those mixes!

[@aliceprofitt8506]

This was so helpful. I especially need to practice applying pressure and releasing pressure techniques, and holding a brush differently for detail or very loose. Such a great summary. I really appreciate your videos. Thank you.

[@olgakoelsch]

You're so welcome! I wish you a great progress!

[@brandihart2367]

I LOVE “don’t wash your palettes!!! I love your videos-so unique! Especially the transparent flowers…I don’t have to buy ink acrylics now!😊

Helpful tips! I was so glad to hear you say don't wash the palette - I do that and always think I'm being crazy, but why lose all that mixture that you took time to mix? Also, I had never thought about using two brushes. Thank you for sharing these!

[@olgakoelsch]

[@carmenromero6426]

@@olgakoelsch the water, controling the water everywhere, in the paper, in the brush, the water in the pigment... I'm having problems even with my shower's water! (Trying to do a joke in english...) Always too much or very few, never the right cuantity.

[@barbcairns2408]

Using 2 brushes is my favorite tip

[@olgakoelsch]

I am glad you like it!

[@artflowerslofi2676]

I was thinking; Some watercolors change their vibrance when they are wet and when they dry. Any help?

[@olgakoelsch]

That a good notice! It’s very natural for watercolors as paper absorbs some pigments. Cotton paper absorbs more than synthetic. Usually you just get used to your colors and know when it’s possible to add some more vibrancy 🤗

[@captaindrywall]

Not turning the paper. Best tip this year

[@taw1117]

Favorite tip...don't wash your pallets! 👍

[@olgakoelsch]

Glad you like it! 🤗😅
