Watercolor Quick Tips and Tricks!

[@tammydinh]

Please do a water color 101 video! I've been trying to get into painting but it really isn't as easy as it looks. I've missed your videos because they inspire me so much, so glad you're back!

[@joanpringle-canning2834]

the more I watch your other videos, I learn new technics that fasinate me in your art.

[@betsywarrior]

If you saturate the bristles of your brush with some bar soap first, before you dip it in the masking fluid you can protest the brush from getting stuck with the masking liquid. Then rinse the brush out immediately after you're finished.applying the mask

[@petrucci15]

love the totoro theme song in the background hahaha....awesome!!!

[@petrucci15]

and once again....incredible!! i am now subscribed!

[@ritadogg4269]

I know right :)

[@mikamielo5855]

petrucci15 that's why it was so familiar

[@flayuhat]

petrucci15 It's actually not the main theme, but it _is_ from Totoro... the song is called "Sanpo" in Japanese, and "Stroll" in English :)

[@pok3.m0n_54]

I knoooow

[@StaleCrayons]

There's a reason I watch these kinds of videos! Just by chance I stumbled across this, and I've been pondering how to make a water effect for something I've already got inked up... I've never heard of the technique with the plastic wrap, but I'll be damned if it's not EXACTLY what I needed! Thank you SO MUCH!

[@MrsChuBell]

I think this is the best watercolour tip video I’ve ever seen! Informative and instructional but not condescending. It was really peaceful to watch too thank you 👍🏼

[@starlightsonata]

Galaxies and starry nights are my favorite ones in watercolor. Love so much! Thank you for the tips.

[@arlitagariana5772]

just sharing what i've learnt, for the sharp edge you can also use masking tape 😉 make sure the paint is dry

[@sammsart]

was thinking the same, it does seem helpful though if you are out of it though xD

[@strawberrytide]

another really cool trick that I often use when painting with watercolors dropping some splashes of rubbing alcohol onto the painting while the watercolor on the paper is still wet. it makes it look really really cool!

[@maghfiraina8080]

your videos are inspirational.... i really mean it... i always feel inspired after watching your tutorials... :)

[@kittytube8197]

So do i!

[@FauxPas1620]

Love this. I've watched a lot of these types of videos and this one covers so much more than your average video. This is a great how-to video for people in the beginning stages of pursuing watercolor painting. All of the techniques shown are so awesome and can completely change a piece of art. Thank you for posting this. It's so great.

[@ArtbyDoki28]

this is the best, quick and precise watercolor tricks video I have watched so far....Thank you so much for sharing this!!

[@kelceyfirth]

I love all the effects like the salt and cling wrap! It looks really beautiful. I was actually trying to find how to do a galaxy! So glad!!!

[@SmilyLily1996]

Just a little tip on the masking fluid: You can use liquid latex used for halloween masks and fake wounds for it, it's basically the same thing. Just be careful, not every kind is equal in quality. I have a huge bottle of tinted liquid latex by kryolan(professional quality, 250ml) that I got for around 12€ but barely use for any makeup uses because the colour is too intense. I tried it on paper with watercolour and it worked great, while the masking fluid I found in art stores is much more expensive. I also tried a cheap halloween store kind, which worked technically but became extremely sticky to the point where my hand was stuck to the paper and was much harder to lift. If you want to try it, get a small bottle and try it on some scrap paper.

[@cecilisneat7220]

I recently found out how much I love water color and your videos have been a HUGE help! Thanks loads.

[@emjaycub4814]

the Zelda music made me instantly emotional and nostalgic!! I love your videos!!

[@SuperKewl12]

Wow it's all so pretty! I just started using watercolors, so more videos like this would be greatly appreciated!

[@0903photography]

Beautiful! Love that you are always exploring new mediums!

[@aqricots]

I've always admired your watercolor drawings they really inspired me to start watercolor. Thank you so much for making the video.

[@mischellereynolds3046]

I really enjoyed this video. So many cool effects! I ready liked the mastic wrap technique! I didn't really understand the 'shaping out' demo but I'm a beginner and it wasn't my favorite. Thank you for putting so many cool ideas into this short video!

[@Azur3Rain]

Wow. You are just demonstrating but i feel like your art is so wonderful to behold.

[@adoringjonas]

[@stargirl4890]

[@MonityVanroe]

+Olivia Garcia Glad I want the only one to notice. At first I thought I was going crazy.

[@CharlieEAlden]

トトロに習字の筆まで使って頂いて･･･ 日本人として光栄ですなぁ･･･

[@priscillamcmurry3918]

Just got the watercolor bug. I love your ideas. Thanks.

[@judylawrence6085]

No masking fluid isn't Latex for the person askingPea Fleur. Your talent is SO AWESOME. THANK YOU FOR SHARING!

[@kriskat7991]

Love this video! Best one on tricks so far :)

[@bixyfroot]

You should try using the salt method for the galaxy ones, they do create an interesting effect (: great video! Really enjoyed it

[@judylawrence6085]

Itala. I only know very little about Kosher salt but it isn't fine grain as is table salt. It's more the size of small gravel. You probably know this and I may not have understood your question. I do also know you can get some beautiful effects by using it. Especially when used on very dark colors

[@bellabarter8502]

💕I love the Totoro music in the backround!💕
