Love your framed painting of the colored glass. Would love to see tips on how to paint colored glass and clear glass and how the colors reflect off each other. You have a gift for breaking down the process of watercolor painting. I can see such growth in my painting after watching your tips and long tutorials.
Thank you so much for these tip videos. They are really helpful. I have two topics to suggest: one is how to paint storm clouds and the other is how to paint folds and wrinkles in cloth. Thanks!
Thanks a lot for the video! I am a beginner at watercolor and painting researching on art durability, archiving tips as well as sustainability and safety for health aspect. A few questions: Q1: What art materias are ok to store in plastic containers? Paints often come in plastic tubes and storage wise often tables and drawers have plastic parts or are fully plastic. Q2: do you think adding a layer of cotton fabric would be ok instead of tissue? (A bit hard though to know nowadays whether cotton is GMO or organic) Q3: are plexiglass and acid-free matting best for photo prints also? Q4: how can one find out whether paper is 100% cotton? I do prefer it as well but was shopping the other day for a few albums for various media and did not find the material mentioned on all paper I've seen (strangely, even famous brands like Canson and a few other).
This is the first of you videos I have watched. Very informative and I look forward to viewing many more. You mentioned that you generally mat your pieces in white to be consistent and comply with show demands. Do you have a favorite source for your acid-free mat board? Do you cut and mount them yourself? Thanks.
Hi Michael. Yes, I cut my mats and frame my paintings myself. I purchase the acid free museum mat 32"x40" boards, Rising (company) white (color), from Dick Blick online.
@@lorrainewatry_watercolors Sorry to bother you again. In watching your video on transferring a drawing and stretching paper, I was surprised to see that you stretched your paper AFTER drawing on it. I had not seen this before. Why after and not before you draw on it? The water doesn't affect the pencil marks?
Thank you for all your information. I was wondering after you are done with painting, then what do you do to preserve the paintings before you frame it?
Thanks for sharing appreciated ❤
Thank you once more Lorraine!

Would love it if you could do a video on painting a forest in the distance...please.

I usually place it flat in a drawer or in a portfolio until I am ready to frame it.
Interesting subject but the wobbly-scope filming induced sea-sickness & I had to abandon 2 & half mins into it.
