On my channel you will find water media art tutorials. I work with watercolor, gouache, acrylics, plus other materials like inks, markers, pastels etc. I paint various subjects - flowers, animals, landscapes, people and explain every step, all the techniques and my thinking process.
The levels I focus on are intermediate to advance water media artists, but I hope my videos will also be helpful to beginners who are serious about making the next step in their art.
I am a former architect with training in academic drawing and painting. Besides creating paintings, illustrations and public art projects, for the last 5 years my main focus has been on helping other artists to improve their artistic abilities, to give them tools to achieve their art goals, to find inspiration and courage to create. I look forward to helping you, and connecting with you - do subscribe and click the bell icon - I post two new videos every week.

2620 is my lucky number and i want to gift it to your for this wonderful drawing
Thank you so much 😀
lovely
Amazing. Would love to know how you know what color to put where
Warm colors in the light, cool colors in the shadows. Otherwise just use the ones you like!
@@KseniaAnnis ah I will have to learn warm and cold colors as I wouldn't have a clue. Struck grey with my pastels some Grey's are warm, some cold, haven't a clue what makes some cold and some warm.
Since yellow and red are warm and blue is cool, look at each color and ask yourself - does it have reddish or yellowish tint? Then it’s warm. Does it have a blue tint? Then it’s cool.
I was just contemplating if I could mix gouache with oil pastel. I'm glad I found this video! Having two separated whites for warm and cool colors is a smart hack! ❤
Glad it was helpful! Thank you for watching!
What’s the small brush exactly called? Can’t hear it well enough. Thanks
It’s a dagger brush.
Such a beautiful painting, and very well explained. Thank you 🦋
My pleasure!
I love this so much. I’m new to gouache and was about ready to give up. An artist friend recommended you, and I am so grateful. Did you use watercolor for the initial background or was that gouache ?
I'm so glad that you enjoyed the video! The initial blue background is a watercolor wash, used to just “kill the white of the paper”. Then I worked with gouache.
Very helpful. Thank you.
Very nice and interesting! I subscribed to your channel!!! :-) Good luck with everything!
Gorgeous!
It’s lovely. I’ve used oil pastels for years. I think I’ll try a bit of gouache. Thank you.
Verynice work ksenia!!
Beautiful! I photographed some today for references.
Thxxx
I really love your tutorials. I am taking a class atm but you take it to a whole other level!
Great to hear, Cynthia, thank you so much for such a nice comment!
Beautiful and impressive.
Thank you!
Excellent.
I love Opera Pink! Thanks for the tutorial. Jo in France 🇫🇷
Thanks for watching, Jo!
Beautifully done! I like them both, the first retained more of the lovely bright color so if I had to hose it would be that one.
Thank you! 😊
I am so glad i found your channel. Great video❤
I’m glad you are enjoying it! Thank you for watching!
Can see the water movement indicating fight action. Very cool!
❤❤Absolutely Stunning ❤❤ Many thanks!!😊
Thank you too!
It's true what you said about painting on paper. When using acrylics you really have to consider the drying time from both the air and from absorption into the substrate your working on. Nice demo, a lovely loose painterly style.
Thank you so much!
UA-cam said I need to see this again. It’s still gorgeous and I would like to try this photo with gouache.
Lol! I’m glad it did! Gouache will work great for this reference.
LOVELY!
Thank you, Belinda!
Gorgeous!
I loved your tutorial.
Thank you! 😊
I drew a lovely pen and ink of my dog’s head/face. He is a gray/black Doodle. Now I would like to paint bright colors loosely using watercolors. Do you have a video to show me how to even begin this? Many thanks! Jane
Jane, I usually do watercolor first, but here is a video where I try both ways - Line and wash sketch of dogs: watercolor and uni posca markers ua-cam.com/video/26Ab_VfEoLI/v-deo.html
Love the duck. Could you demonstrate a dog’s head? I’d love to know how to do this technique. Thank you.
Thank you, Jane! Have you seen this one, it might be helpful- How to choose colors for watercolor painting ua-cam.com/video/wG-6icrPlok/v-deo.html
Beautiful artistry. Especially love the gouache- Impressionistic style paintings!
Thank you.
Lest anyone feels they must lay out large amounts of money for 100 % cotton paper that size, l totally disagree that you can't paint loosely properly unless the paper is as large as you prefer. You *can* do it on small pieces and be thrilled with the results. I do agree a large brush relative to the size you're working on is essential.
Thankyou so much❤❤
Great job. Like you i wasn’t crazy about it when you were half way but by the time you finished I was in love. Thank you for sharing, loose painting I believe will become my favorite.
Love your loose painting its exactly what i was looking for. I just purchased watercolor supplies so that i could start painting. This is going to be a new hobby for me and loose painting looks easier then everything I’ve seen on UA-cam. Thank you for sharing, looking forward to more loose paintings.
You are welcome and hope you have lots of fun with watercolor!!
You are so generous with your time and talent. I have been doing watercolors as a hobby for years and find your videos are so inspiring, like no other I have seen. I will still only be a hobbyist but will enjoy trying what you have taught. Thank you.
Pat, thank you so much, I really appreciate your comment!
❤❤❤

😊😘
I like it!! Its has a different feel than the original. Its hard to explain. Softer & less complex than the original, yet its a little bolder - which seems contradictory! Lol. I do want to learn how to paint in the style of Van Gogh, & I think gauche is a perfect medium, but have no where to go to learn 🙁
Glad you like it, Renee! Thank you for such an interesting comment! Gouache is very forgiving, if you like it, go for it! 😁
Are you still painting?
Hi Sue! I had to take a break for personal reasons, hope to get back to teaching and creating later this spring. Sorry about the technical problems with classes. Just let us know which ones you need, and I'll get you new access.
Thanks for this, I bought some paper and couldn't get it to work. Will try wetting the paper like you advised
Wow
Would be great if you named the colors you used
Suzanne, if you go to the Community tab on my channel and scroll all the way down, there is a photo of my pallet with all the colors listed.
Very Helpful!! Thank you1
Glad it was helpful!
Beautiful! More attractive than the reference photo. I appreciate your explanations so much.
So glad you enjoyed it, Lisa!
Fantastic demo & GORGEOUS paintings 🎨 🖼 ❤❤🔥 I love using water with my calligraphy pen drawings. I have get these inks!
Finally a tutorial that I was looking for. I spoiled a painting because i didn't know how to prep the handmade paper
Thank you! So glad you found this helpful!
❤
