ESSENTIAL Watercolor Techniques for Beginners

[@reyreynorth]

I love your examples with the oz painting! Really helpful explaining how to use them in a real painting

[@patess369]

As a beginner, I must say, this is one of the most helpful videos on the practical use/application of watercolor that I’ve come across. Thank you for keeping it simple (and, thus, more readily learnable) in both areas of comprehension and illustration. Made my day…

[@leeannsolice7473]

I watched this video twice! First about six months ago when I had just been using watercolors for a few weeks, and again today. Both were so helpful; first as an intro and again to literally "brush up" on the details! Love your charts of techniques and then the immediate application to a real painting.

[@mscileppi1788]

I just found your channel and I'm learning so much from you! I've been a watercolor hobbiest for years but you are sharing concepts I didn't understand. The most beneficial understanding is not to overwork the paint and let techniques like pushing and pulling do it for you. I also just finished making my color swatch cards from your other video. Thanks for helping me enjoy my watercolors in a deeper way!

[@Pointebrush]

I’m so happy you’re enjoying the channel and that it’s helping you achieve your goals! That makes me so happy to hear. ❤️❤️❤️

[@JudyMorotti]

Thank you! I miss your teaching videos lately but you have an archive of great ones. This was a very helpful video!

[@runedart5048]

Thank you, this was very useful demonstration of what’s actually meant by the terms I hear so often. Very much appreciated, along with your video’s on color theory.

[@polgara28]

Great techniques! Thank you for sharing them. I love the way you explained them. 🩰

[@lizford2498]

This has been helpful to me. I am currently taking a beginner H2O class and the prof did not really explain these techniques to class. I did sign up after the first two classes so perhaps I just missed these lessons.🤣 I am learning a lot watching you and I find your videos fun and helpful and you have the same sense of humor as I. 😃 Thanks!

[@carolstefan7662]

I love your videos! I had to watch this a couple times then put to practice. It was a great exercise for me. I found I was putting too much water on y paper and getting blooms. Now to put to practice! Thank you for posting!

[@janesimpson3462]

Thank you for being so thorough and sharing your expertise!

[@Pointebrush]

[@Pointebrush]

Nice to meet you Gina! I hope you love this palette as much as I do, it really is my absolute favorite. Let me know how it goes and what you think of it! And good luck on your roses and portraits! ❤️

[@JulesTools23]

Thank you for sharing this here! I’m just beginning my watercolor journey and cannot ty enough for showing these techniques and moreover just how they apply to the art you are using them in! It’s a game changer, and all the light’s are burning bright now 🙏 I was suggested to view your video regarding cross pollination ;), which was the first massive change in my understanding of the medium and painting in general. I wanted to watch another of your video’s, and so I chose this. Just these two alone will make a difference in my painting’s going forward! Never have had a class in any of the medium’s/type’s of materials I’ve used to create with over the year’s, but feel that inspiration and the basics will help me to achieve a greater sense of accomplishment in watercolor as I go forward in my journey. I subbed, I look forward to many more happy moment’s watching your content, and in turn upping my skill’s!✨🌻

[@aussiesunset]

Thank you for this video. Its helped me a lot. Not only did you show techniques but also where they can be used and how. Not many tutorials like this that explains it in easy terms. I love your way of tutorials as they help me feel more relaxed about my painting. Thank you 🌻🦋🙏🇦🇺

[@deeanncross7674]

This was a great video, especially demonstrating each technique in order of dampness and implementing it in an actual painting. (Would like to see the end product!) Although familiar with most of the techniques, this was still very helpful.

[@Pointebrush]

Thank you so much DeeAnn! Glad it could be a good refresher!

[@Pointebrush]

and ps. I'm working on another video with the full Wizard of Oz painting from beginning to end so that'll be coming soon!

[@boyandbelugee]

Thank you for the lovely tutorial.❤

[@Pointebrush]

You’re welcome 😊

[@miyeipark4032]

I can't wait to try these! The pulling technique was especially fascinating. :)

[@Pointebrush]

Isn't it so much fun? Hope you try them and that they're helpful!

[@zdoriksandorik]

Hi Margot! I've just discovered your channel, and I couldn't help but notice that you have a FORMIDABLE collection of red lipsticks! I absolutely love the color on you in this video, would you mind sharing what it is? Thanks!

[@astrobubbers]

Is there water in the brush when pulling?
