[@constellations9258]

such a precious little birdie in the snow.........I love this painting...........great for this time of year an year round...........I've got bird feeders set up in my yard..........I think I'll get my camera out and try to snap some pics, then paint them............oh by the way, one thing I'm learning fast, one can never seem to have enough brushes and watercolor paints............this has changed so much since about 5 years ago when I bought a basic watercolor kit for a teacher, that included a few basic colors........some primary, one or two secondary, a neutral, and black to first learn to paint in one color.........when the teacher asked me if I'd like to buy any more tertiary colors, I said.......no, not now, maybe next time.............it would take a bit before I found out what "collector" mentality art supplies could instill : )........but unfortunately, never enough : (.............prices add up FAST!

[@mariamorjane]

Hi Jasmine🌸🤗Thank you so much for your kind words. And yes, so true.. once you have few colors you want more and more, same with papers, wanting to try all that are available out there, different brushes.. it all adds up😅

[@AnneGoggansQHHT]

Lovely painting. My very favorite black velvet brush 🙂 If you ever need an extra pointed round, Rosemary’s brushes in the UK has an excellent designer round sable blend for detail work. It keeps an excellent point for the price, even with shipping. Their #2, and #4 designer round keep a better point than my mini brushes. 😉 Birds are a challenge for me. I always keep them tighter than I’d like. Always striving, right.

[@mariamorjane]

Thank you so much Anne ☺️😀thanks for all the information on brushes... lately I have been evaluating Silver Brushes and Princeton and I do like them so I share it in my videos 🌸😀I might try "her" brushes at some point xx☺️💕🌸

Hallo Maria, weerom wonder mooi geschilderd. Het beginnen met het negatieve schilderen is iets wat ik heel graag doe, spijtig dat ik de Holbein waterverf hier in België niet kan kopen want de kleuren zijn fantastisch. Heel erg bedankt Maria voor deze tutorial.

[@mariamorjane]

Hallo :) heel erg bedankt en het spijt me te horen dat je in België geen Holbein-aquarellen kunt kopen .. dat is jammer .. Ik weet dat je ze uit Japan kunt proberen te kopen? Ik heb gehoord dat heel veel mensen in Europa ze kopen via Amazon of uit Japan. dank je

[@beatriznewmark4979]

I really enjoy your videos, they are full of colors. I put them in slow motion and is amazing how much l learn. Can you please tell me do you prefer Holbein paints versus Winsor Newton and why?

[@mariamorjane]

Hi Beatriz :) thank you so much I am very happy you are enjoying my videos :) I used to paint with WN and when I upgraded to Holbein I saw a huge difference, Holbein are more vibrant, more pure pigments, highly concentrated so you don't have to use much paint... I used to go thru WN tubes every 3 months, Holbein lasts me for 7-12 months and smallest tubes😀 They are easy to lift up and easier to control because Holbein doesn't add OxGall to their paints and many other reasons ☺️

[@beatriznewmark4979]

Thank you so much Maria, very good reasons, l appreciate you take the time to answer

[@lynnemartin2291]

I can’t find this video on your Patreon... I am a patron. Thanks

[@mariamorjane]

Hi Janet, the real time video on Patreon is an older video dated from Nov 10th 2017, perhaps why it's harder to find it.. it's buried under all newest real time videos. But you can definitely find it there, I just made sure it's there, so you can scroll down passed the main 5 featured tags and then you will see a tag: "bird", when you click on it.. you will find this bird sooner vs searching thru a tag" real time video" where we have over 150 real time videos🌸

Bonsoir maria que passez vous juste avant la peinture ????

[@mariamorjane]

Salut Viviane :) Je partageais ce que c'est que de peindre sur Arches Watercolor Block. Que vous laissez votre feuille de papier, une fois que vous avez terminé de peindre et qu'il est sec, vous pouvez déchirer la page. Les blocs d'Arches sont collés par quatre coins. Le papier reste agréable et c'est génial pour ceux qui n'ont pas du mal avec les papiers qui bouclent, etc.

[@essietangle9931]

Thanks, have a good weekend!

Thank you Essie :) have a nice weekend too!

[@ИринаШердис]

Very nice !! and on paper, 300 g /m2 it is possible to draw or only to such as you draw ?

[@mariamorjane]

Hi :) when you paint with watercolors I recommend to use only Watercolor Paper to achieve the same results... you can use different types of watercolors papers, cold pressed, hot pressed or even rough... you can use 140lb instead of 300lb.. thickness of the paper is a personal preference :)) xx

[@ИринаШердис]

Maria Raczynska Thank you very much))

[@SwissMiss778]

How do you prevent the paper from bending/curling up using so much water? Is it still on the pad?

[@mariamorjane]

Hi, yes its still on a block... but if I just paint on a single sheet of watercolor paper I lay it on a glass, thanks

[@SwissMiss778]

[@barbtubing]

I never see you wet your brush. Do you paint really dry?

[@mariamorjane]

Hi Barbara, I wet my brush off screen, there's no place for me to place my water jar without loosing the focus on everything else on the table. I dip my brush in water then slightly wipe on a towel, then either paint or paper...

[@barbtubing]

Great. Thanks

[@jacquicherry1721]

Maria, may I make a suggestion/request, please? I absolutely love your videos! Your talent shines through everything you do...such a blessing to me! Would you PLEASE consider voicing your comments and instructions as you paint? It would be such a great help! Even if you dubbed some in after you complete your taping session, that would be better than nothing. I find it very frustrating to watch videos that have no other audio than music. It makes me want to go find someone else to follow. But I don't want to. I really love the way you work, and want to learn from you. Simply speaking to us throughout your videos would be the icing on the cake for me! 😍 Some things may seem like common sense to you, that are actually above our heads...because it's become almost second nature for you. I hate to say this, but although your taste in music is so much higher above that of many others, the repetitive instrumentals still begin to wear on my nerves, because I'm trying so hard to concentrate on what you're doing. I imagine that you probably have no idea how much adding audio of your voice would enhance your teaching videos. Please consider doing this. I've been in a bit of a painting slump...it's probably been eight or nine years since I've painted anything of significance. Life just happened. But I'm trying to start again. 😊 Please don't receive this as something negative, but rather as an encouragement that you're such a blessing to so many. Thank you, Maria! May God bless you richly!

[@mariamorjane]

Hi Jacqui, thank you for your comment. I save my "commentary" and all speaking for my online classes ☺️Once my first online classes are ready I will announce on youtube for sure 🌸 With music majority enjoys it as a lot of people don't paint, just like to watch my videos for relaxation purposes 🤗 The good news is you can turn off the sound of each video on youtube, you can also change the speed of your videos. Thank you Jacqui🌸
