What is that brush holder she's using? Can't find it on Joe's site and it looks perfect for what I'm looking for.

All Painters cheating from mother Nature...are free for everybody copy to be better .

Nancy, what do you think of artists who trace their images from a photo? To me, that's cheating ....like paint by number. Just wondering. I'm astounded at how many artists do that.

@skipperooney

Just because you trace a photograph doesn't mean you can paint that drawing it still takes a lot of talent....I draw & I trace the drawing takes a few weeks a tracing takes 15 minutes. I take lots of photos and there isn't anything wrong with blowing the pic up and tracing it!

Nancy....superb teaching! Your explanations are clear and sensible and reflect how I think about watercolor. I've appreciated all of your tutorials and have learned much from them. Thank you and I anticiplate any new videos you make.

I just started taking a watercolor painting class that is only 2 classes long and decided to see what was out there on You Tube as far as Lessons for beginners like me. I love your step by step video and the details and explanations that go into the lesson.This video was a great help. I hope you post more in the future!

Really nice tips. THANKS so much! So many demos seem to be more about exhibiting than teaching. Appreciate you!

very helpful, but where is part 2???

What's the water thingy? I never seen anything like that before. and.. sorry, but the technique of the water thing reminds me of a toilet (with the flushing)

Anyhow, that "tutorial" is really nice. I love to work with watercolour myself (because I have alot of them from my elementar school time).

And back then as a kid I had big problem to use them. Not so much nowadays.

@sionatube lmao was wondering the same thing n it does remind me of toilet flush lol
