Very Easy Garden Door Real-Time Watercolor Painting Tutorial for Beginners

[@joethridge7999]

Beginners don't get bored with one or two hour videos, especially yours. Being able to watch you and hear your explanations as you create, step by step, is so beneficial to beginners like me. Watching the loose layering process, then the more detailed process and especially seeing how you change something you don't like, helps us more than you know. I for one, am so grateful to you for sharing your time and talent with us. Please don't stop.

[@herba2363]

I love old doors, old walls and flowers.

[@nancydavis14]

Like the dark back grown, the art work shows up much better. Beautiful picture i Just retired and really want to paint hope not to old to learn (75) I'M learning so much watching you!!

[@nancydavis14]

YOU DID NOT GIVE ME A HEART?????????????

[@carolekinsey7835]

Well i just sat down for a quick brew. British and tea...say no more. It's gone cloudy and cool here today, but the day has just brightened. I feel like I'm now sat in a sunny spot, with my feet resting on the warm flags. Looking up at the Wysteria and listening to the bees. Ahhh lovely sunny day after all Lindsy. Thanks for a lovely break. 😊

[@carolekinsey7835]

Apologies, Lindsay

[@beatrixsorensen1648]

I really like seeing the dark desktop. It makes the paper and the painting look fresher and the dark background is easier on the eye. It gives the impression is of less clutter.

[@maryrosekiomall565]

Thank you Lindsay. Was so much fun painting this with you .

[@Cmonicab55]

I don't mind a one hour video. This beautiful painting was worth it. I like the way you explain everything in detail.

[@lisamiller8174]

I second that :)

[@denavess732]

I love this picture! I needed some inspiration. I think we are our own worst enemies when we view our own work. We tend to think not good if not perfect.. yours are always nice! 😊 I learn a lot watching!

[@kimyork6774]

Longer videos rock! We learn so much.

[@amithistrock6029]

Morning glories are beautifully purples 🎨

[@vivaciousmimi]

You are a really good teacher! You make it easy for a senior lady (74) to feel confident in starting something she wanted to do in her younger years! Blessing from Texas! Marilyn

[@debpaolucciojanomethreadar2357]

I'm with her ! I'm 70 years senior artist 😉

[@debpaolucciojanomethreadar2357]

I'm a beginner & this is the best video class so far! Thank you!

[@thefrugalcrafter]

You're so welcome!

[@jolapinski3833]

REALLY enjoyed this! Don't worry about the length...those of us who are really enjoying and learning will hang in there. Loved it to the last stroke!

[@donnalieblick8478]

Some of us watch these as we have time, being interrupted and going back to finish. Please take the time you want and need for your work. It's very much appreciated. Thank you. One of my favorites of yours!

[@vivprince6823]

I have just started watching your videos. You are a very good teacher. You give so much information, its awesome for a beginning watercolor artist to have this kind of instruction. Thank you so much.

[@charlottedenton1190]

You balance "teaching" and "just hanging with my friends" perfectly. I love this painting. Thank you for being you ❤

[@atticusalexander2101]

you probably dont care at all but does someone know of a method to log back into an instagram account..? I somehow forgot the account password. I love any help you can offer me.

[@walterandy7050]

@Atticus Alexander Instablaster ;)

[@atticusalexander2101]

@Walter Andy Thanks so much for your reply. I got to the site through google and Im trying it out atm. I see it takes a while so I will reply here later with my results.

[@lani3277]

I can't tell you how much I enjoyed your video...I thought about it and realized I felt relaxed...you went slow and it was very calming! I have watched some other of your videos where you talk so fast and furious, that I didn't finish watching them. thanks for the great video!

[@laurahale5774]

This is a video that I return to again and again. Thank you for explaining what you do and when. We really appreciate not speeding up through the teachable moments.

[@Jobena1]

I am always amazed at your skill Lindsay.

[@brendacollinsdeeks7268]

This was so soothing to watch as you painted, Lindsay! Annd, even though, it was quite detailed, I do think I can manage it. I'm definitely going to give it a try. Have a wonderful weekend.

[@jimflack9462]

I think we can all imagine having a special place to have our coffee (or tea) like this. Fantastic painting, as always. Bougainvillea is another hanging plant, I think. Around here, we have lots of ivy and trumpet vines with those beautiful orange flowers. Thanks for sharing your fantastic talents once again!!

[@thefrugalcrafter]

Thanks Jim!

[@andreaizumoto9180]

I love all of your “Lindsay-isms”! Don’t worry! Just have fun! Don’t worry it will wipe right off the table! Painting with you is so relaxing and encouraging. Just like painting with Bob Ross. ❤️

[@solamadoo]

I had a great night following this tutorial!

[@donna1811]

Any door or gate or plants,and flowers just grabs me and to watch you paint it makes it just so much better! Thank you Donna

[@Bridgton1]

This is a very south of France street scene in the narrow streets. I’ve traveled there on several occasions on snd photographed/painted them. You were manifesting your France 🇫🇷😍!!!

[@thefrugalcrafter]

Thanks for sharing! How wonderful ❤️

[@evelyntrivitt3900]

I like your version of this reference photo much better. Awesome piece.

[@thefrugalcrafter]

thanks!

[@sandrapudoff]

Stunning painting! I never could have guessed how many hues you used and they all work! You made my day by calling this a beginner project. There is hope!

[@maryshows7907]

I love the longer videos and real time painting. It turned out beautiful! Thanks, Lindsay!

[@heidimarkie6193]

I love the long videos! I also love that you are authentic and real! Thank you for showing us how to change things we don't like and not over-reacting to them or deleting those scenes! You're a wonderful teacher! 💗

[@lalita8728]

It's so easy to paint when you teach

[@rosemaryrichard2332]

I really enjoyed this painting. You got me to start doing watercolor a while back, which I was afraid to try, now I really like learning more each time I paint. Thank you!

[@debpaolucciojanomethreadar2357]

Tilting so we can see your brush strokes was genius! (Morning glory, trumpet vine, lilac are a few draping flowers)

[@krisstorts9]

Loved the video! Also like that when you make a mistake you show us how to correct it. Also loved you4 innovation of using the plastic container to put your white gouache on. Looked like something I would do! Thanks Lindsay!

[@kit1634]

I really appreciate that you take your time when you are teaching us. You explain what and why you are doing so well. It is a very relaxing way to learn. I feel refreshed and ready to be creative afterward.

[@lynnfetzer6424]

This one hour video was perfect! Kind of like spending time with a friend over a cup of tea, and she teaches you a great painting lesson at the same time Thanks so much for posting it

[@marybeth8230]

This is beautiful, and just what I needed to pull my attention back to watercolor. I forget how calming, and on most thing, how relatively simply it can be. Your painting reminds me of the magical story The Secret Garden, and your plants are splendid. Thank you for sharing your work.

[@lindadudas9783]

Lindsay, this lesson was so beautiful and inspiring. Thank you for giving us a detailed perspective on how you work out all the ways to create. Especially for sharing your time it took to create, it's better than any livestreams could have delivered. 💗

[@valligator1]

Lindsay, that was a fun tutorial. Thank you. I always learn so much from you. I never mind the long videos. I prefer the great teaching you do rather than shortening them. Valerie

[@michellepernula872]

Nice! I love those crabs in that magazine. Good to eat and good to learn to watercolor for sure!

[@dalemoyer]

So enjoyed this tutorial I felt like I was in the garden. I had started being critical of my work, but this made me relax. You are a blessing to us all.

[@snuuby5468]

As a beginner to watercolor, I really enjoyed your tutorial. I appreciated the narration while you were painting. When you are new to a new skill it is most helpful to know what the instructor is doing and why each step of the way. Thanks !!!

[@michellepernula872]

This is stunning!!! I think your brush with a point in the center is something I'm needing, looks like it works really well. Thank you for teaching this!!

[@ConchiBelvis]

Lovely!! More of these long teaching sessions, please! Lindsay, you are so talented; I enjoy watching and listening to you. Thank you!

[@donnajuchtzer576]

Lindsay, I think this is my favorite painting I have watched you paint. I have been wanting to give this a try for a long, long time and didn’t know where to start. I just Love, Love the old door with the loose flowers and the colors are beautiful. Thank you for the great explanation as to how to decided where to put your cool blues and warmer yellows by the barefoot idea. I absolutely love to watch you paint. Thank you so much.

[@JanetBuol]

As Lindsay was turning the pages and describing it, I was thinking slow down slowdown I want to see it. It looks lovely from that quick glance.

[@AlisonFennell]

Hi Janet - that is encouraging to hear ! I hope that if you decide to dive in and get a copy (or even enter Lindsay's giveaway for it) that it will quicken your creative pulse and fuel your art awakening! Alison (The Pottering Artist) :)

[@DarkisArt]

Omg this is so adorable! Besides my obsession with cherry blossoms I would say doors are my second obsession! I can’t play the vid now but will definitely save it for later. Love listening to ur energetic voice!

[@dacwebb]

Ahh... you triggered a childhood memory...you found the door to, ' The Secret Garden '. Lovely painting and thank you for the tutorial. So good I watched it twice. Thank you for the visit back to my youth. :) [The Secret Garden by Frances Hodgson Burnett].

[@amber6607]

I like your painting with the dark wood behind, you have taught me so much and I thank you, good luck everyone. Beautiful, amazing.

[@Dedaskitchen]

Really nice! Can’t wait to try it, I like the longer videos at the slow pace, easier to paint along in real time.

[@thelmajudge4881]

That really is pretty, you make it look so easy. I need many more years practice.

[@cynthia0dlin797]

Loved it!! Will try later when my new supplies come in!! Thanks for the in depth tutorial. Can’t wait for Spring in Maine!!

[@nancywhitmore3497]

Thank you for this video, Lindsay! You make painting look so easy! It fun to watch you at work because you have so much talent!

[@melaniecharlton7121]

I love these longer videos,theyre informative and easy to follow for beginners like myself.Keep them coming!(please 😁)

[@jdp6ofus]

Love this! Love the real time and your explanations as you go. I watch it through in fast speed, then show it down or do real time to paint along. This came out so pretty. Thank you!

[@DeborahLeigh1247]

I have been painting with you on many of your you tube videos from the beginning of time. I love following you and the Art projects you teach. You have an excellent teaching approach, you always make projects look sooooo easy! Thanks Lindsay Thankyou for the opportunity to win one of the Pottering magazines.

[@tlctime4057]

Long videos are the best!

[@Sheila-BennerHolt]

Such fun to watch you painting this. Your tutorials have given me the courage to give watercolors a try. Your comfortable attitude makes it seem possible. Thanks.

[@jackiebrown6577]

Forgot to say you are a great teacher and a beautiful and talented artist!

[@maureenjohnston-mullaney174]

Did anyone have trouble seeing you sketch because of an interfering glare on the white paper, I couldn't follow the progression and I just love to watch you develop your scenes it helps me to see how you compose the actual drawing way before you arrive at your destination. I love your paintings, I have learned so much from you on so many levels. We both suffer from the same disease as I am sure many of your followers do as well; the desire to master all things that will give others pleasure and play with a plethora of products that we could only dream about when we were young budding artists. I have never left a note before, sorry I got a little wordy, I promise to keep it short next time. Thanks for all your paean works. Regards, M. Johnston

[@MNGal1524]

I am thrilled with the real-time aspect of this video! Beautiful! I also have no problem with the length of the video.

[@barbarabass4235]

This painting creates such a feeling. I can almost smell the flowers. I want to go there. “Secret Garden” maybe!

[@KateEmmanouil-zz4ul]

Lovely thank you for making my Saturday morning so relaxing interesting and informative. Really enjoyed that👍😍

[@thefrugalcrafter]

Glad you enjoyed it

[@jacquiposener7262]

It is so fascinating watch this painting come together with you adding touches of colour and most importantly explaining what you are doing and why. I’ve learned so much from watching this and I’ll probably try a paint-along. The thing is you kept adding to the wisteria when I thought they were done!

[@deepierson6872]

Beautiful painting😊love watching your creations!

[@flychk1229]

You mentioned Lilacs are blooming where you are! Oh my goodness I miss lilacs so very much 😢My most favorite flower. Spring in the areas that have ‘real’ winter, like Montana where I’m from, is so wonderful. Rebirth. I love this painting and watching you paint it! Thank you for sharing.

[@casinolily]

Thank you Lindsay for another awesome tutorial. You make it easy to follow along and create a successful painting!

[@yakinkate7946]

The wooden desk background looks good to me. I’ve enjoyed the detailed tutorial, length isn’t an issue for me at all. Thank you for introducing me/us to new experiences like the magazine, good quality, affordable paints, papers and brushes. I trust you to test products and give a fair review, so that I don’t waist my creative budget on lesser quality items. I love your commentary. I believe you have a true teachers heart, wanting your students to succeed. I come back to your channel again and again to learn and be inspired. Thank you for all you do to make this channel work...research, video production, painting/craft practice, social media management, and a plethora of other task! 🎨🖌

[@mapeandrews3951]

Alison is a great artist and wonderful person, her magazine is a must have, I am so glad you are featuring it in your channel.

[@AlisonFennell]

Hello Mape and what a sweet comment! I appreciate your words. I hope all is good in your art world. X

[@Linda-qq5mg]

This is double gorgeous!! I love your longer videos! I find it so calming, and exciting at the same time, to watch your videos! I have to say that your dabs to make geraniums would look like blobs on mine! 😀Thank you ever so much for this beautiful painting and your great instructions.

[@brendawalsh8254]

I love this so much I can’t wait to try it out. Another video notification of yours just popped up and I’m torn about watching that and starting to paint. Lol I’m so glad I found you last week. I’ve already watched so many of your videos and bought a course and critique club. I’m learning so much.

[@thefrugalcrafter]

thanks so much!

[@joannecarroll5504]

Love it! Love it! Love it! Would love to warm my cold toes on that patio. Thank you.

[@maggiecarter3432]

I had fun doing this and it was challenging. thanks for all the tips.

[@clarefriend1376]

So relaxing watching and listening to you do these tutorials. Thank you so much. Length is not a problem. Hanging flower suggestion bougainvillea.

[@donnabirney817]

Hi Loved this relaxed tempo of this painting after all I paint to escape. More like this .I think I would like the Pottering Artist magazine!! Thanks Lindsay for sharing this.

[@AlisonFennell]

Hi Donna - I'm pleased that The Pottering Artist piqued your artistic soul! Let's hope your name gets drawn and you can get ideas, inspiration and insights into how you can further your art awakening:0 Alison

[@lindaf1274]

Thank you Lindsay for another wonderful tutorial. I really love following what you do but also enjoy your chatter. Which is where I want to say that I love Allison's wonderful accent. Just love her videos. I didn't realise she was doing a mag. Definitely will check it out. Though this weekend I think I'm going to tackle your pastel wave in your class. Got myself a very soft white pastel and some workable fixative. Looking forward to moving forward on my pastel journey.

[@thefrugalcrafter]

Sounds like a good plan:)

[@AlisonFennell]

Linda - that made my day - I 'm chuffed my voice chimes with you and hope whether via my mag or channel that you will get the art input you need for your further inner expression. PS - in Issue 3 - click below - there are 2 pastel demos on vegetables and in Issue 2 (the one featured by Lindsay ) there is one long one. The publisher Blurb is great as you can do a virtual flick through of 15 pages ok - www.blurb.co.uk/bookshare/app/index.html?bookId=9491165

[@DLART1]

Fun watching you paint.That is a lovely door. Very nice sponsor also.

[@AlisonFennell]

That i sso kind DLART1! I hope you may enter the magazine giveaway and enjoy its contents. Alison

[@juliereis146]

I love your tutorials. The way you explain and demonstrate techniques, mixing, blending, and the “cheats and tricks” are so thoroughly helpful. I’ve learned so much from you in the past year. Thank you for sharing your knowledge and gifts.

[@Creativeone63]

I really enjoyed this and agree that it's worth it for you to take the time you need. When I don't have time to watch a long one I just add it to my watch later list so I can find it easily when I'm able. 😊

[@gwenlynn7261]

I love these real-time long video they help so much thank you! I love how you make it look so easy and approachable it makes me feel way less overwhelmed with a whole scenery Plus it always looks beautiful :-)

[@margoreilly9881]

Oh my...first...I love this...second, your instruction is so easy to understand, third, I love that your video is as long as it is...and last but not least....thank you for sharing your amazing talent

[@Bethman]

So pretty! I love the longer video!

[@marciakubly5822]

I love that so much. As a beginner I feel like even I could paint that. My favorites are the flower pots.

[@melindarincon7571]

This is great and take as long as it takes, we all learn so much. There's a beautiful hanging vine in south Texas and New Mexico called bougainvillea. It's usually hot pink or coral. Loved the video!!

[@barbaravoneitzen7729]

Liked this lesson. I’m doing something similar. It’s a Mediterranean garden by the sea. Thanks for the inspiration.

[@busyceeq]

Really enjoy your style and clever ideas to be more free with my own work. Thank you Lindsay!

[@stanky6261973]

Absolutely gorgeous.

[@rhondachapman3688]

Gorgeous picture, you make it look so easy. I love the longer videos, makes it easier to paint along with you 💜💜

[@faridahmcatamney3601]

wow, what a good start for beginners like me.

[@doloresbennett1755]

I LOVE your painting today and love even more your lack of conversation continually. It is relaxing and can concentrate more on what you are doing and less on what you are saying. Keep up the good work. Old doors such as this one is very nice, indeed. Thanks for your effort. And quiet moments. lol

[@misscharlene1942]

it look so hard.., and very beatiful.., I apreciated it.

[@jomyron8351]

I’m really sorry you stopped the live videos! You do it better than most! I love your watercolor tutorials!

[@megperry5586]

Love it, I am trying this today! I love your enthusiasm and your honesty that even with your talent you get frustrated

[@eliseshaw3341]

I love this! I’m watching this during the pandemic shut down. Thoroughly enjoyed everything about this! Thank you, Lindsay

[@barbaram5787]

You probably don't really need my comment but I do want to let you know I like this and plan on trying it. I appreciate your tutorials.

[@thefrugalcrafter]

I appreciate your comment:)

[@battygirlrachel]

I don't usually watch your water color vids but already glad I clicked on this one. Really enjoy being introduced to new artists. I have to build up my patience w watercolor 😂

[@carolatchley3797]

Thank you Lindsay for doing such a beautiful loose painting. I enjoyed watching it, and hope I'll enjoy when I try to paint it as well.

[@livylivytsang7718]

You are very talented. Please film more videos about watercolour for beginners.

I tried this today. So much fun!! Thank you.

[@joys4524]

Thank you, Lindsay. I so appreciate you.

[@thefrugalcrafter]

I hope you try it Joy, I thought you would enjoy it!

[@joys4524]

thefrugalcrafter Lindsay Weirich I absolutely do and will. Nice to hear you have your spark back. ❤️🤗 I think this is just what I need to recover my spark. I haven’t painted since April 3rd. It’s been a long recovery after knee replacement. Thank you.

[@vickicervantes1817]

This is such a Beautiful watercolor paint, I love how long your tutorial is also. The longer your videos are there so relaxing, I enjoy it that way too! You have so much love in your painting that I feel you give me more confidence in myself, to where I feel like "I CAN DO THIS" I even watched this twice! I don't know if anyone else does that, but I really did enjoy this tutorial. And I love the Artist Magazine from The Pottering Artist, You don't see anymore magazines that that. This one looked like it gives so much good information in it. I thought to myself; Oh I'm going to win this Pottering Magazine! I got so excited and stopped the video to look at the date that you made this video and wouldn't you know it! "RATS" I'm always a day late and a dollar short. But, that's ok I can get on their website and see how to order this magazine!!!! SO, Thank You Lindsay for Painting this Beautiful painting and a other long tutorial YAY!!!! and Thank You for always sharing with all of us.
