    You are a wonderful teacher Olga. I hope to join your patreon soon. I love painting on Hot press paper and I recently tried the Baohong Satinado paper and it is amazing. It is right on par with Arches Hot press and I like it even better than Fabriano Hot press. I seem to be able to only find it on TEMU, but it is worth the hassle. I really enjoy following you and hope to learn a lot from you. I so enjoy your work and you are absolutely the best with transparency. You are so generous with sharing your amazing skills. Thank you.

      @@olgakoelsch The price is very inexpensive, about half the price of Arches, but the coarse paper is VERY coarse and the rough is quite rough but great for landscapes. The satinado is so smooth I can't wait to get more of it in different sizes! I guarantee you will love it.

    So far, I've only heard how bad hot-press paper is. You have proved that it is not the paper or paint; the artist creates beautiful art. Thank you, the video is amazing... Learning from you how to paint an eagle or a falcon would be super.

    Very well explained, thank you!!! It was a strange and uncomfortable experience using it for the first time as I'd only used cold press paper. I hated how it felt. I think knowing how to work with hot press will make painting more enjoyable. I love your style, it's so beautiful and ethereal. I'm looking forward to trying some of your tutorials!!!

    Great info 👍.
    Is it possible to achieve a smooth wash using wet on dry technique on a hot pressed paper?
    I was trying to do a plain/flat wash on a hot pressed paper usimg wet on dry technique but the paper absorbs the color immediately leaving the wash dirty.
    Is there a proper way to do a plain wash or wet on wet is yhe only proper way on a hot pressed paper?
    Thank you!!!

    • @olgakoelsch
      @olgakoelsch  5 місяців тому +2

      This is a bit challenging on hot press. Wet on dry works better on cold press. You have to have enough water on your brush and a drop at the bottom of your wash, but always come back to it (i hope I manage to explain it ) i might make s video about washes 😅
