Blue Owl - Speed paint - watercolour demonstration monochrome

Watercolour Artist and Teacher Jenny Gilchirst uses an unusual new colour, Antwerp Blue, to test out the colour in a monochrome. Today it's an owl, in monochrome with light and dark. Practicing monochromes is a great way to test your 'tonal ranges', and an awesome way to learn about your new paint colours.

How to get ALL of a tube of Watercolour Paint into your palette

How to get ALL of your tube paint into your palette (without wasting any of that expensive Artist grade pigment!) Sounds obvious...right? It isn't. From a big scrooge (me) to you, the beginner artist, I'm going to show you how to get every drop out of this tube and into my palette. I don't want my students to waste their money by leaving 2-3mls of this 10ml tube in it!! That's about $8 worth! So here we go, I don't want to waste my own money either! * I would be grateful if you would LIKE and SUBSCRIBE to my YouTube channel for more, upcoming tutorials. * Many more full length tutorials, workshops and watercolour classes through my Watercolour School - Welcome to Watercolour, here: https://welcome-to-watercolour.teachable.com/p/home https://www.northernbeacheswatercolour.com.au/ * Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/NorthernBeachesWatercolour/ PInterest: https://www.pinterest.com.au/northernbeacheswatercolour/_saved/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/northernbeacheswatercolour/ Enjoy. #welcometowatercolour #watercolourtutorial #watercolour #watercolor #watercolourlesson #howtopaintwatercolour #watercolourforbeginners #beginnerswatercolour #painting #northernbeacheswatercolour #howtopaint #howtosqueezeoutpaint #watercolorclass #watercolourclasses #watercolourcourses

Why your Watercolour Brush needs to hold plenty of water.

Why your Watercolour Brush needs to hold plenty of water.

This video describes why it's important to have a brush that holds plenty of water when painting in watercolour. You also need to know how to test them, and what the difference is. A cheap brush saves money, but not in the long run, as it doesn't always do the job you need.

#1 FREE Beginner Tip: Outlining isn't good - Watercolour Tips

Some beginner watercolour painters habitually outline their items, as if they are 'colouring' in. This is not a good idea. It can create dry lines, double painted lines, backruns and can be messy on your page.
