PAINTING NEED NOT BE COMPLICATED|tangerine with watercolour

[@loricaldwell8374]

Love your technique! You make it look so easy. I’m just a beginner and definitely overthink everything. My favorite holiday food is pecan pie. My Christmas stocking always had oranges, apples and pecans in it, and it was a thrill to pour them out onto the floor on Christmas morning. Thank you for bringing that long ago memory forward.

[@helencampbell]

Ooh I love pecan pie. Thank you for your comment x

[@michaelklein5242]

When I first started, I did the same thing!

[@pamtol5]

Wow...so beautiful. Tangerine is my favorite fruit in winter. I buy them in boxes and never stop eating them all day. Thanks for uploading this video.

[@helencampbell]

Lol me too. I love them. Thank you for your comment

Thank you Patricia

My grandparents hung a stocking for us on December 31st, as we always stayed with them then. At the toe of the sock was a tangerine and an apple, and the rest was filled with inexpensive things that would keep us occupied until it was time to go home. Thanks for bringing that memory back to me. I’m a beginner but you make it look so easy xxx

[@helencampbell]

Oh that’s so lovely. What a gorgeous memory. Thank you for your comment x

[@arpitahalder7909]

Another masterpiece. I think it will be the best watercolour orange fruit painting.

[@helencampbell]

Thank you

[@namaste15]

I can’t wait to give this a try! I don’t have a lot of good memories of Christmas growing up but tangerines are always a treat this time of year. I just bought a box of them today! Thanks for your lovely free tutorials. I’ve learned so much from you in just a few months!

[@helencampbell]

Thank you Nayla. I love seeing your paintings. You may have realised I don’t really like Christmas. This one is no different. Be glad when it’s over xxx

[@lindacsmith13]

Cranberries. They grow in Massachusetts (US) where I'm from. We used to string them with popcorn and put them on the tree. Plus, they are so good in muffins, breads, pies. I love them.

[@helencampbell]

Oh I love them too. Lovely memories

[@melodycrites3145]

I Drew out a Clementine last year, then thought how do I paint this?´ Great tutorial, now I know how to proceed. Thank you.

[@helencampbell]

That’s brilliant. I’m so glad you found it useful x

[@helencampbell]

Thank you

[@bethsullivan2056]

I would love to try this one. Did you say that there was a free traceable drawing? Thank you for sharing your talent.

[@helencampbell]

Hi Beth. Thank you very much. For this tutorial the line drawing is over on our Facebook group and I have linked it in the description box underneath a video. Some of our future tutorials have a line drawing at the end of them but for now, that’s where you will find this particular one. So join our Facebook group and you have access to all of our line drawings and reference photographs

[@normaschaumann4992]

I was fascinated with your spot brushes. I got one size 3/0 and washed it well per instruction but I can’t seem to get much paint on paper. Is there special instruction on the use ? You look like it is so easy🤨

[@helencampbell]

Hi Norma. Just use them as you would a regular brush. Did you but a size 3 or 3/0 which is 000?

[@alenasi4564]

❤

[@dorothygladsjo3510]

I bought the Mungyo already… I’ll improvise:)

[@helencampbell]

Any paint will do x

[@elizabethk.stratton9586]

Helen - I’m finally ready to start painting with you. I love the tangerine and will go out and by one today. I already have the tiny brushes and mixed media paper. Where do I find the tracings you use? I found them a month ago and printed one out. The watercolor paper made the tracing look very “pebbly” and it was hard to see. Now I’ve forgotten where they are! Please remind me. Thank you. E

[@helencampbell]

Hi Elizabeth. They are in The media folder over on the Facebook group along with the reference photo. The watercolour paper can be a bit bumpy depending on what you use

[@elizabethk.stratton9586]

@@helencampbell I was using Arches top quality watercolor paper. One more question…I checked out the Patreon page and prices, and I don’t understand the difference between the watercolor lessons you give on Tuesdays, like the tangerine, and the ones you mention on the Patreon page. I’ve gotten older and I’m living on social security, so I wonder if you have a special rate for those of us who don’t have much money.

[@helencampbell]

Hi. I’m sorry I don’t have special rates because I do the KZbin videos for free. The Patreon site is more in-depth and exclusive to Patreon.

[@jackelinavilaart2536]

Hi, i love your channel!, also i would like to know if this watercolor pencils are good quality and it holds they points good?

[@helencampbell]

Hi. Thank you. Which watercolour pencils?

[@maverickspirit208]

Is it just me, or is the tangerine peel missing it's shadow? I'm guessing that I'm not looking at it correctly. Any replies are welcome.

[@helencampbell]

Yes it probably is

[@hairyelement]

What kind of board do you tape your paper to?

[@helencampbell]

Hi. It’s just MDF Coated with plastic
