The blue thing is a foam tub that slides on to pens and pencils for grip. I taught art to students that had physical disabilities and that was just one of the pencils that I had used that day of filming.I like the way it feels. Shari kazowie
You are a brave woman to jump right into watercolors. You can use wet or dry watercolor paper depending on what technique you want to show. If you wet your paper everything will bleed more and it will look more flowing. you can practice by painting flowers. I like them when they get distorted and bleed a little..If you wet the paper the sides tend to curl up so you need to tape the edges of the paper down .I used the crayon to show texture. if you need to white out a section use the masking flu
Hi! Your video answered some ?'s I've been having about using w/c, and I am a complete newbie, only painting for 2 weeks now. I have some question, if you have some time? Did you wet your paper first? And why did you choose a white crayon over permanent masking fluid (which I've just discovered). Is it because the crayon is cheaper, more accessible? And do you have any tips on creating shadows? I seem to be having the hardest time with shadowing. Do I use light gray paint? Thx. ~Molly
.I use a dry brush technique to make some shadows by using a dry firmer damp brush dipped into a watercolor tube paint, and rub it around
the shadow area or if you make a shadow mix a color into black, like a drop of blue. most artists do not use pure black in anything.I could bla blab ber on forever. Just experiment and GO WITH THE FLOW. Good Luck Shari Kazowie
