Das mit dem Aquarellstift ist eine gute Idee. Hab hier auch noch ein paar, aber wusste nie so wirklich etwas damit anzufangen. danke! ^^ Wie krass, dass das Bild allein schon lebendig wird, als du den Hintergrund mit Negativtechnik angelegt hast. Wow :)

Thank you so much for mentioning the colors!!! Do you mind doing it again for skin color? Last time was not too clear which color with which

[@CarolHeld]

Great tutorial today. You definitely inspired me to do a watercolour painting today. Thank you so much. The blue is like saying " halo" but with a "th" at the beginning. hahahaha I knew what it was, so no worries at my end. LOL

[@sandrar.5911]

Muy hermosa tu pintura, felicitaciones, dibujas muy bien..

Phthalo is such a weird name, i had a problem with it too :D (And I see others already commented) Thank you for sharing! I'd watch you paint real time too :) And your self-made paints look incredible!

Can you give links to the brush you used? Also do you have any recommendation for brushes for beginners? Thank you!! Amazed by your work!

[@MrVijay1942]

It is interestingly different style and would like to adopt it if there is some informative tutorial available. Please guide me into it.

[@patheticpebble4719]

You have gotten a new subscriber :)

[@lindaking9222]

[@HHHH-kx6gd]

[@seangentry74]

[@fanfreluche]

[@jodiecroft9332]

just so cute

[@freddycarvajal311]

You paint very nice, where are you from ?

[@jadynw9141]

You are amazing at watercolor, and I am a small (like tiny) YT that is struggling with watercolor. Do you have any tips? It would mean the world to me if u did.

[@ivancastellanos6731]

[@pilarb687]

Love this illustration!!😍 can I ask how good are those watercolor pencils? I wanted to get some and I'm kind of curious. Love the way you used it for sketching🙌🏼

[@iraville]

i think they are good, but i don´t use them for coloring because i prefer my normal watercolors. i only use them, like in this case, for sketching when i dont want outlines or i use them like normal colored pencils when i want some very soft colored pencils. :)

[@pilarb687]

+iraville ohh I see, thank you for answering!! You're a darling😍

[@nastyalebedeva4909]

I like this illustration. Thank you. I did the same and put it on wall :) Ira, I have a question - do you prefer keeping the canvas (the paper) laying on table or you put it on an easel when drawing/painting?

[@iraville]

i prefer a table . but i often fix the paper on a board so i can Change the angle a bit while painting :)

[@maggiephong5716]

Since I don't know if you'll ever see my comment, I just wanted to restate my suggestion. If you're ever at a part in the voiceover where you don't know what to say or go silent, you can add some music to the background! Love your artwork and I found you through Doodle Date❤️

[@bangtanstatue9862]

so cuuteeeee

[@hammads9045]

Newb question: Why use a water colour pencil? Can any kind of pencil do? Oh and I assume you didn't put water "in" the penguins, right? That was just your skill in control..

[@silkeschumann7261]

Any pencil could do but the beauty of the watercolor pencil is that they become invisible, while ordinary pencil show.

[@superkidz1234]

very simple..but nice

[@POLKAnoe]

かわいい

[@teresamarzia84]

I don't know if you had already figured out yourself but I think the correct pronunciation of "Phtalo" is "F-talo". It seems the name of a Star Trek character, doesn't it? X-D I just discovered you on Twitter and I'm in love with your art. Keep up the good work!

[@SoBoTHERSoME]

♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️

[@Jessica616ify]

Why are you so adorable

[@nazubahere]

Sagen sie "th-ey-low" blue (Pthalo blue)

[@iraville]

thank you! :)

[@nazubahere]

:)

[@bel.cascabel]

I didn't like it tbh... I loved it! ♥

[@GabdeVue]

oh man. I vowed to NOT pester you with questions this time. But i will... Again. First of all: I always enjoy seeing how you use white space. You create illustrations that are so pleasing to the eye but never kitsch - this is so hard to do! I think it has a lot to do with your affinity not to use pure colors. My question is: You mentioned in other videos already, when some colors separate nicely. And you mentioned your color-sketchbook. Is this what helps you remember this? I find it baffling that you know all the combinations and what separates. Or do you know: This pthallo blue will _always_ separate? As much as I love watercolors, I will never draw as much in this medium to ever figure all of this out.

[@iraville]

thank you again! :) as @skulfrid already said, that the granulating Colors are Colors that seperate (not phthalo blue ist the mars black in this case).and which Colors are granulating are almost the Colors with the heavy pigments like metal pigments (Kobalt, iron oxide...), Mineral pigments (Malachite, Azurite, Lapislazuli (ultramarine is the synthetic and cheaper Version of lapislazuli)....) and earth pigments ( sienna, orche...) some granulates heavy and some more subtle. the best way to learn is really to test them and mix them and when you find a combination you really like paint the colors in your sketchbook and make some notes.oh and i dont know which pallette you use but if you use schmincke watercolors...for some reason schmincke watercolors dont granulate much (also not ultramarine, thats almost the most granulating color in every standard palette) only the cobalt Colors and cobalt coelin and manganese violett ganulate a bit more (from the Colors i have)

[@GabdeVue]

@skulfrid and iraville, thanks a lot for your answers : ) Yes, I am using schmincke, but when reading up on granulation, i found unbelievably beautiful swatches of daniel smith's watercolors, but with the cheapest of them starting at 7,50euro (and the really granulating ones having names of minerals - exactly as you said!), it's a bit much for just playing around. One of the blacks by schmincke is nicely granulating. It might be Lampenschwarz. Also for some reason my mauve is granulating. I accidentally bought it twice and only one of the two does that - same brand, same size. Thanks a lot and yet again having tons of stuff to read up on and experiment with!

[@iraville]

oh yes, lots of Daniel Smith watercolors granulates beautifully. not only the genuine Mineral Pigment Primatek Colors. btw "mars black" is Daniel Smith "lunar black" and Daniel smiths lunar blue is exactly the same mixture i did (mars black PBk11 und Phthalo Blue PB15) i normaly avoid mixing with black because it almost make the Colors just muddy. but mars black /lunar black/iron oxide black granulates so extremly that the pigments seperate so much that it never looks muddy (also when you mix that black with yellow) ist maybe not great for making Colors darker but ist great for granulating effects. i am suprised that your lamp black granulates. when i mixing with it everything just looks muddy. my favorite granulating Colors for mixing are ultramarine by mijello (the only granulating Color by mijello but it ganulates beautifully!!!) cobalt teal blue by Daniel Smith and cobalt violett by Winsor & Newton and now also mars black by me ^_^

[@kgp217]

I have that washi tape!

[@lizajane55555]

Nice job, the blue is pronounced Thaay-Low.

[@joanpringle-canning2834]

🧸🧸🧡🧡💜💜🐭🐭

[@reivenne]

It's pronounced thallo, the ph is almost silent :)

[@iraville]

thank you! :)

[@funkduckfuck31]

Actually it's f-thallo, a very silent f, most people make that mistake and just pronounce "th" but honestly noone cares if you say it P-talo. It's cuter :p

[@reivenne]

Yes but then people say ffffthallo because they can't get their mouths around it :P Easier to just say thallo

[@funkduckfuck31]

It's not that hard but you know whatever

[@reivenne]

No need to be argumentative about it, it was just a general observation. I've noticed in my country (Australia) people really struggle with the fth sound because it's rarely found in english.
