This beginner series was so helpful. Great for muscle memory of strokes.

Hi Erin! I'm a very beginner - I'm really struggling with the water / palette - rinsing the brush (when?) too much water (tap on paper towel?) I think because my palette is tin it isn't working the same as yours. Can you tell us exactly what palettes you are using? Looks like white plastic (not the glass one in your notes below). Can you show how exactly you are rinsing and loading your brush? we miss seeing what you are doing outside your paper and a part of your palette. Help! (I told you I was a very beginner!)

Hi Kristen! I'm happy to answer your questioins. First of all, I made a video that addresses Water Control! You can watch that here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/gIizdYlpoZirapo The palette I'm using IS the glass palette ;) I know it looks like plastic, but this one is the Mijello Bulletproof and it's my favorite ever. You can also join my free FB Group - I do weekly FB Lives to answer questions that are better answered in video! here's the link for that: facebook.com/groups/snowberrydesignco Hope that helps!! Happy painting! :)

@@SnowberryDesignCo Awesome thank you!! I watched that and it helped so much! One more question... It looks like you are using a lot of water - I try to mimic exactly what you are doing. In the end, my paper (I'm using the Arches) is a very warped paper - definitely not flat. Is that just how it is? It seems when you go to a gallery to buy a watercolor piece, the paper is very flat.
