Watercolor Dog // Pigment Control on Wet Paper 🐶

[@Bindismom]

Oh my! Gorgeous dog and hurt hubby! So sorry for his fall, that’s always scary😮. It’s good to know that by now ( two years later) that he is all healed up. Blessings to both of you🤗🙏👍👍

[@sujanithtottempudi2991]

Watercolour with you is so slow and relaxing unlike other channels

[@prabhakaranaluva1154]

Hope your husband gets better soon

[@ratnaroychoudhury1220]

You are amazing sharing small details and finer tips for control of colour No one teaches like this giving reason for each step and it is great delight to watch you paint. This is so beautiful 😍 😊❤

[@kaliopinikitas5821]

Oh dear, 7 ribs fractured! Poor Dom. Thank you for sharing with us that he is on the mend and sending along wishes from Canada for a super speedy recovery. That photo of Dom with your newest addition to the family is so precious and adorable. Thank you for yet another fabulous tutorial, Louise!

[@stephaniepaul271]

You are a real teacher. Your instructions are so clear. Hope your husband gets better soon.

[@LouiseDeMasi]

Thank you so much Stephanie.

[@vitamincalmasmr]

Your bloopers always get me giggling. Your such a sweet lady ❤. Wishing your husband a speedy recovery

[@debbiemendes4417]

Thanks for the reminder to watch to the very end. Speedy recovery Dom!

[@lightwavz]

I am having controuble for sure! I also use lots of damn brushes!

[@sharklover138]

It is not just informative to watch you~it is so fun and so soothing!

[@LouiseDeMasi]

Thanks Elizabeth. 💕

[@velviteenrabbitt]

I never tire of watching your magic hands and hearing your guiding voice Louise. This is going to be a terrific tutorial on Patreon. I'm so excited! Much love to Dom (ouch!) x

[@lagodgirl]

This technique has been my saving grace time after time after time - I am so thankful you shared it 😊

[@dottieburns3420]

This is mesmerizing. I was so excited I had the incredible need to share. I called my husband over saying “you’ve GOT to see this! Then I realized it would be like him asking me to come watch a fantastic football play.” So it was a ‘nevermind,’ but I continued to watch in awe. Just fabulous.

[@LouiseDeMasi]

Thanks for sharing!!

[@cindybtanner3974]

Wishing Dom a speedy recovery! 😇 It looks like he had some controuble on a ladder. 😊 Watercolor painting is all about controuble.

[@LouiseDeMasi]

Thank you Cindy! Lol - Yes that's what is was. He had controuble on the ladder and yes I agree painting in watercolour is one controuble after another. 😆

[@eleanormccarthy2713]

So glad Dom is getting better! Man, what an awful injury.

[@jtpaar1732]

Thank you, Louise; this painting tip will be really helpful for me. Fractured ribs are so painful, but I see Dom will have that beautiful grandson and an obviously devoted wife to see him through! I don't like to comment on peoples' looks, but your haircut looks adorable on you! You have your hands full, Louise, but don't forget to take care of yourself, too - you can't serve from an empty cup! God bless.

[@peggriffin6970]

Louise..this is the only time I have ever commented on a site...I love your presentations and your honest delivery...I am a woodworker and carver who desperately struggles with watercolour but you are the only one I truly get....thank you and I hope your husband is mending well.

[@LouiseDeMasi]

Thanks so much Peg. I'm happy to help. We are both well now. 💕

[@leslierobbins4467]

Love the new "do"! your hair looks lovely!

[@nettiemoss324]

Oooh Ouch for Dom's painful looking injurys, and yet stil he smiles - you are wicked showing off his shorts!! As for the dog - it is beautiful! I have to say there are many new colours, some may call them gimmicky . . . but when all's said and done I find W&N are the most reliable - you just know they are going to work. I love the way you drop in the violet and give those superb shadows: I may try that on one of your other tutorials. I am having so much fun on my learning curve - Take care and get well soon Dom!

[@LouiseDeMasi]

Lol- thanks so much Nettie. 😘

[@damanaza46]

Dom, get well soon! Louise, thanks a lot for your amazing channel!

[@wendykelcey1246]

I’ve been trying to paint my son’s dog who is a very pale blonde. This has helped a lot. I need to try doing it this way.. I look at the dark colours when you paint and go,”oh no! Will that work?” And of course, you make it work beautifully!!I need to be a little bit more brave! Just love the bloopers! They take away any anxiety when trying something new! 😂

[@kdmylove]

You look lovely today. Glad you're hubby's doing better. God bless.

[@LouiseDeMasi]

Thank you so much Christina. 💕

[@angelawalker9793]

My goodness, your colour study is amazing...not to mention the final painting. Beautiful, as always.

[@LouiseDeMasi]

Thank you Angela.

[@utshamurmu1401]

Waouw! How beautiful it is! And thank you so much for sharing your techniques with us, Louise 🙏🏻

[@bdcorgimom]

The visla is lovely.

[@ptaylor4923]

Drying mixed paint on the pallet before using it on wet paper. I think you just solved a huge problem I've been having and I never would have thought of it. Thank you so much!!!!!! I was having controuble. 😏

[@pammckain5822]

Appreciate the tip of putting the paint on your plate and letting it dry. I have fits trying to do wet on wet technique , thanks Louise.

[@LouiseDeMasi]

Thanks so much Amanda. 💜

[@lindabloom6666]

This is a tip that I'm going to try on my final few leaves on my tree that I want to stand out and not blob into the rest of the broccoli-like silhouette. So glad your husband is doing better!!

[@LouiseDeMasi]

I hope it helps. Thanks Linda. 💕

[@NancyinNewHampshire]

Glad your husband is better, I understand injuries to the ribs can be very painful and take a while to heal. Louise, thank you for another great tip on water control which is a challenge for me. I found your videos on KZbin a couple of years ago. I’ve also taken a few of your lessons on Skill Share. I love your style of painting and the way you use color, You’re a wonderful teacher.

[@oliviaunicomb180]

The dry paint palette looks to be an amazing technique! So glad to see Dom on the mend up and walking! Laughter is the best medicine!!

[@LouiseDeMasi]

It really is! Thank you Olivia. 💕

[@joaniedorsey6116]

I am always having CONTROUBLE! My new favorite word. I adore you so much. It was great to see Dom up and walking around.

[@LouiseDeMasi]

Me too...😝....controuble follows me wherever I go! Thanks so much Joanie. 💕

[@lynnlindley9042]

Louise, you have the most beautiful smile! 😊 And your voice is so soothing! 💗 Prayers 🙏🏼 for a quick and painless recovery for your husband.

[@LouiseDeMasi]

Thank you so much Lynn. 😘

[@gaillobello3204]

[@cherylbrewer1218]

Thank you Louise for a great tutorial. My goodness so sorry to hear that your husband has 7 fractured ribs, I had one a while back & that was bad enough. Glad he is getting better though 😊. Best wishes for a very speedy continued recovery. Love your hair too xx

[@LouiseDeMasi]

[@marynasemsi9712]

Amaizing! Thanks Louise👍🤗💐

[@patricianichols4491]

[@ratrividyantari]

Hello My name is Putu. I'm from Indonesia. I'm 12 years old..I really like painting just like you..You're painting is so beautiful 😍🤩😍

[@ThatGirlTatianaH]

Aww, the words can’t explain how THANKFUL I am for detailed information you giving about HOW to “deal” with the paint and so on, you’re my FAVORITE teacher about watercolors...THANK YOU SO SO MUCH !!! 🙏🏻😍💓 and “CONTROUBLE” that word need to enter all dictionaries 😂🤣😂 and I LOVE your new hairstyle...lovely 🥰

[@barbaramilbradt2188]

Wow, poor guy! Hope he heals well! I learned plenty here, thank you!

[@colleenkleinhans849]

I’m new to watercolor and I often end up with hard lines where I don’t want them after the paint dries. Not sure if I am using too much water or fussing with it too much and not distributing the paint evenly....I’ve watched your videos on water control and I think I have it until I don’t. I imagine I just need tons more practice. I think this technique you showed may be the very thing I need. Glad to hear your husband is on the mend. Wishing him a speedy recovery.

[@LouiseDeMasi]

Thanks Colleen. It takes a lot of practice and eventually it becomes intuitive. You do things and fix things and avoid things without even realising you are doing it but even after a lot of practice it happens sometimes. There's so much to think about when you paint with watercolour.

[@faithmariesavill]

Very helpful tips and the finished result was lovely !!Glad hubby is on the road to recovery !! Thanks for the glimpse of his bum !! Teehee !!

[@crystalheart9]

I have to comment again as I have used your dry palette technique since watching this video. It's a brilliant way to control the paint on wet paper and appreciate you sharing this video with us on how to do it. It works great!

[@heidikaplan5110]

Great to see you back “on the air”, and the clips of your hubby at the end were heart-warming! What a horrible ordeal for you both, but I’m glad to see he’s improving.

[@LouiseDeMasi]

Thanks very much Heidi. 😘

[@unbeatablewinner2998]

Love your hair Louise x

[@monicadewit9766]

So glad to hear Dom is doing better. I started my symptoms of covid 9 days ago; having ups and downs but your "out takes" are always good for a laugh. Just what the doctor ordered,

[@LouiseDeMasi]

Thanks Monica. I'm sorry you're not well. Best wishes for a speedy recovery for you. 😘

[@susanmiddlebrook5882]

I’m so sorry to learn of Dom’s horrible accident! Grateful it wasn’t worse but I realize how very painful such broken ribs are. I will pray for a speedy recovery! As for this gorgeous vizsla, your artistic technique is inspiring. I love what you did with paint straight from the tube, then dried, then applied with a damp brush. I will employ that myself. The vizsla looks so beautiful, intelligent and insightfully rendered. You did this breed justice. You are an excellent artist, teacher and humorist! Spending time with you via your tutorials is a totally inspiring and refreshing experience! Thank you so very much, Louise! 💗

[@LouiseDeMasi]

What a lovely message. Thank you very much Susan. 😘❤️

[@marilynbeeby6435]

What a brilliant tutorial and a fabulous dog. I like this style of painting, it seems to work for me. Love the tip with the palette 😊

I just watched this video. Awesome. Love the bloopers. Im glad hubby is getting better. Keep your head up and best wishes for him to continue to get well.

[@judymills873]

Wow! I wish I could paint like you!

[@carynregan8319]

Louise, you are the best! And, what a fabulous tip to dry out your paint on your palette! I’m definitely going to try it. I sincerely hope hubby is doing well and back to “bugging you” with his projects around the house! Great love!

[@dbald8]

Excellent and very helpful video. The palette tip should help me a lot. I always have problems with water control and paint consistency. Spreading the paint out on the palette and letting it dry is something I never thought of. Thank you so much.

[@LouiseDeMasi]

I hope it helps you. Thank you!

[@rolandevans5894]

An interesting and useful technique that I will definitely try. Many thanks for sharing.

[@immyhoney]

Hi Louise. What a lovely painting. Hope your hubby is getting better. ❤

[@donnafriend153]

[@LouiseDeMasi]

Thanks Donna. I hope it's useful to you. 💕

[@lightwavz]

Thank you so much! I need to learn to sneak up on the darks as well. I am a paint stabber, not a paint encourager. Edit: thank you for the bloopers as well. Much encouragement to Dom, poor thing! That flash at the end made me giggle like mad!

[@dorisdavidson7849]

Another great tip. Thanks, and I'm so happy to see that Don is recovering! More giggles, LOL. Have thought of you both a number of times this week. Take care.

I hope it helps. Thanks again Melanie.

[@bretoner2]

Controuble....hahaha. luv the new word!

[@joykruczay]

One of my fave breeds! The values of textures of the velvety coat are rendered expertly, as always. You are such an asset to the art community and an inspiration to so many. Thank you for sharing so much of your talent. What a wonderful example of how technology can be used to join those from all over the world in a common interest! BTW, love your Aussie shows, especially the mysteries!
