Even as a non-beginner this is such a useful refresher and reference - thank you 🙏. There are so many techniques we do forget to use some of them!! I like using torn narrow masking tape for reserving silver birch trunks if you are doing a forest; there is also your fabulous bokeh effect with a stencil brush. Supergood 👏👍
Thanks so much Chris! I know what you mean about forgetting... I do to!! Thanks for sharing about the torn masking fluid! Really useful tip! Great for silver birch trees! Love the bokeh effect too!
Karen, I’ll say this, I have several artists I adore, but one HUGE difference with your video is SPECIFIC DETAILS you need to know. For instance, using antibacterial hand gel to protect your brush from liquid masking/frisket. No one has ever suggested this in my years of watercolor painting! Or specific times/wetness for starting a successful cauliflower. And though I’ve discovered a lot of things through trial and error, these details and so many more would’ve been wonderful at the beginning. 😊 There is definitely value in trial and error. Those “Ah-ha!” moments are priceless to growth, as well. ❤
Thank you so much. I’m so pleased that you found the details in this tutorial helpful. And I totally agree trial and error and just practising. Watercolour really does build confidence and knowledge in the medium 💕
A very old but new beginning painter. There are so many tips and tricks for a cluttered mind to remember…this practice is so practical, dare I say simple?!?!. All in one place, very much how I like things, only way for me to find them!. From the bottom of this well used heart, thank you so much!!, please continue to simplify my life.🙏🏼♥️
Wow! I've just discovered your channel. I've been taking several classes, but I've learned more in the first 7 techniques than in all of the classes I've taken. This is just what I needed. So glad I found you. Thank you.
This was a great tutorial for beginners. I am going to make 2 sets of 8 and make notes below each one because I think what you say is as important as what you show.
That’s amazing to hear! Thank you so much 😊 If you would like to access more exclusive and in-depth tutorials, why not think about joining my Patreon membership. www.patreon.com/karenriceart
ty!!! been learning from at least as many artist's different techniques in a jumble of videos & let's say, overwhelment & frustration had me collecting tools rather than using them... maybe its the wrong brush-paint-paper... have a lovely stash, lots of practice pieces & not much that looks or feels like progress... Steps 1 - 16 ALL IN ONE PLACE, HALLELUJAH!! no more rifling thru multiple journals for notes ii can't find... Thank you... going forward, imma sticking to yr channel, unsubbing from all the rest except for a unique topic or mixed media deliberate mashup. This is BRILLIANT, ty!!
Excellent demo and very clear and informative narration! I must admit, #10 - plastic card is a new one for me. Didn't know you could do that with watercolour. Such an interesting and detailed effect. And using hand soap on a brush before applying masking fluid is a game-changer! Thank you so much.
Thank you for gifting us such a precious workshop. Your demonstration has helped me realize the value of observation and timing in painting. It's like gardening 😀.
This is so very helpful, so informative and very clear instructions and information, thank you so much Karen, I will be referring to this tutorial, over and over again as a beginner, and will be doing lots of practice, thank you so much 😊😊😊😊❤
Thank you so much for this tutorial. You have explained and demonstrated it so well. It is such a great help to me as I am just a beginner. Thank you once again.

Use observation. Does your painting need hard or soft edges? A soft transition, like in shadows? More visual texture, like bark? Etc. Look at the technique sampler, and decide what you need and where. She is showing how to achieve those techniques..

I just did this with my daughter for homeschool and we loved it. We know how to paint rocks now!!! That was a real V-8 moment 😊
Great job! So glad it worked for you both 😊

Karen did you buy the pans from Ken Bromley for your empty tin?
Yes I purchased the empty tin and empty pans from Ken Bromley and filled them with tubed paints.
