Watercolour demonstration

On your advice I use my Daler Rowney brush ( 3/4 ), others like my 6 & 8 are very old ( 25+ yrs old ) but good. And, after hearing your „black“ mix I‘ve tried it out, great. Tomorrow I‘ll try out the mixes you‘ve mentioned here hoping for the same results. Your suggestions aren’t good for businesses hi,hi, but for us learners are great to learn from your years of experience! Thanks for sharing, and teaching.

First time viewer to your channel, reminds me of places in Oregon. Love your clouds and rock technics, watching this video boosted my confidence more in watercolor, Thank You.

I have never seen rocks done that way before! That is brilliant! Now I really want to break open the set of watercolors I recently bought. I've never painted with them before, but self isolation seems like a good time to try! Stay safe and best wishes from Kansas City, MO in the U.S.A!

[@charlesevans7706]

So pleased you enjoyed it. Take care.

[@catherinelevison3310]

Very, very good teaching about color mixing and using the brush rather than a tissue or kitchen towel (paper towel) for clouds. I’m going to give this a try. I’m really interested in how one buys the unique sand color you’ve made or how we mix it. Also, I’ve been waiting for someone to be smart enough to provide watercolor paper sheets within their “how-to” books. Congratulations on being smart and thank you for teaching us.

[@charlesevans7706]

Hi Charles, You got me back into watercolours following your ITV series a few years back. ( why the main tv stations don’t bring hobby programs back on air rather than tat like big brother I do not know). Any way keep up the good work even if people don’t paint its just relaxing watching you and listening to the banter. Would it be insulting if I called you our American version of Bob Ross 😁👍.

[@charlesevans7706]

Ahahaha, not an insult at all. Thank you very much.

[@ericmazurek2343]

Have admired and been inspired over the last 10 years and more by your fabulous landscapes. I took up painting about 15 years ago after 34 years of not touching a brush since leaving school. How I wish I hadn't left it so long. However I've sold many paintings and exhibited locally. I've noticed, that you no longer use or recommend Windsor and Newton art materials. You always said Charles that they were the best in "your humble opinion". Is there a particular reason for this? I look forward to your comments and will continue to be inspired by your wonderful KZbin demos. Eric Mazurek.

[@charlesevans7706]

Eric Mazurek simple really, I think Winsor’s took their eye of the ball a bit. And Daler-Rowney reformulated their paints.

[@ericmazurek2343]

@@charlesevans7706 Thanks for that Charles. Either way, I'll still be inspired by whichever brand you use. I do have several pieces of D R equipment ie paper, Aquafine brushes and paints. If you use them, there's no reason for me to do otherwise. Loved the paintings in your garden. Just shows you don't have to have a wonderful landscape in fro t of you to produce an interesting painting. Regarding technics, I haven't pre stretched watercolor paper for at least 10 years. In my art group, occasionally a local artist, being a friend of a colleague comes to the group with a few tips etc. He couldn't believe until I proved it that there was no need to stretch the 140 lb paper. Please Contin with your videos. I wish you continued success. Take care and be safe.

[@classicartfoundation639]

Charles good to see you again, I was doing really well selling my paintings and then this Corona thing started, all ended. I use hookers green because of you, it's easier than mixing greens from scratch, can we have another video soon? All the best Daniel

Hi Charles. The 3/4 flat you use on this demo is different to the one you sell on your site. The one on your site looks more like the longer haired 3/4" One Stroke. Which one would we get if we bought from your site please? I'm fed up with flats splitting when being used and am looking for a decent one. Thanks.

The one I’m using there is the same as we sell on my website. A 3/4” daler-Rowney Aquafine. They’re the ones I’ve used for the last 3 years!

[@JohnSalmon]

I beg to differ@@charlesevans7706 You are using a short haired (2cm hair length) 3/4 flat in the demo, but your site shows a long haired (4cm hair length) One Stroke flat. Check it out. Which one do we get?

Love your videos.. but I'm curious.. You used to say that W& N was the only way to go.. Cotman brushes and W&N Artist Paints.. On this video you make a left turn and say that Aquafine Paints (Which I began with because they were the only thing the local Walmart carries) are your go to paint. I also noticed that your shirts are coded to the gear you are using. Is it a sponsor thing? Or do you believe that Aquafine is as good as W&N Artist paints?
