Loose as a goose-I love this style! Thanks for your tutorials🧡🩷💙💚🤎🩶
I am a beginner to watercolor . Always thought that the flowers had to be perfect in shape. This abstract was good to learn that you don't have to be perfect when painting.
❤❤❤ this video. Thank you so much for making it.
I do Ellen! Perfectionism has always crippled me to an extent. I was told I have perfectionism issues many yrs ago. I'm my early 30s, I just turned 59. It's taken me this long to actually figure out what it means. I just could not relate to it, until it slapped me in the face. Lol!
Thanks for this exercise❤
Beautiful! I really loved the first one a lot; so mystical.
I ❤️ your NO NONSENSE approach to painting! For me personally, this has to be the BEST tutorial I have ever watched. Of my three years of painting, I can COPY almost anyone's tutorials...but my own work? NOT... haven't found my style.... When I try to approach an empty canvas or paper...I just sit there... nothing happens or comes to mind... 😭I seem to be STUCK in the "perfection" thing... thanks 🙏 tons for this video 👍💯
Hi Vicki, can I join you, please? I've been at it for four years and, like you, can follow most tutorials with success, but when faced with doing something original, I barely know where to begin, and when I do, it looks horrid!!! However, one thing I've noticed recently is, I am choosing tutorials with very similar painting styles, similar colours, similar contrast etc. so maybe that IS my style? I don't know. I do believe we will eventually find our own personal style as long as we don't give up.
So very true. I'd like to join with @Bees123Knees as well.
You echo my precise feelings.
How are you doing, one year later?
That is quite a transformation. Love the finished product
Thank you so much! have almost quit so many times!
You can do it!
Just what I needed to get me out of a rut Thank you Ellen for some fun painting xx
You’re welcome 😊
You made this just for me!!! 😂 Love your tutorials Ellen and your encouraging chat. I’m another timid painter and I can’t wait to try this - Impressionism is my favourite style in art so perhaps I can achieve a little myself! Many thanks for a great share 🙏🏻👏💕👏
This is so awesome. Thank you for all the teaching you do for free!!!
I love the look. Easy. So easy & carefree
I love you, Ellen 😊 thank you for your beautiful spirit and sharing your skills, time and joy of this wonderful art form!
I am a complete newbie, but boy does your joy and spirit inspire me so much!
Thank you!
Beautiful! You know, I liked it before the last loosening but I really liked it after. Thanks for this. I remain stuck in detail and perfectionism and this is great to expand my play.
You are so welcome!
This is great !! Thankyou!!
Thank you Ellen! I wanted to start watercolor painting but “I was in my head” until I watched you & your loose style made me less intimidated & I love it! I started with wildflowers & moving on as my confidence builds👍
Cute cards Ellen!! Thank you for my weekend WC project! Tfs! 🎉❤😊
A great tutorial, ty
Very encouraging! Thanks Ellen, I'm going to push the paints around and have some fun tonight!
Have fun!
I liked you mushing it ha ha xx
I love watching you. You make it seem so easy!❤
I love this, I use flat brush with acrylic but not with watercolors, love going back with the wash and adding colors afterwards.
Yes! I’m very hard on myself, especially when I don’t think it looks perfect to send to someone. I love your teaching style. I recently had back surgery, so I’m not able to paint right now, but I’m binge watching your videos so I’m ready to try a bunch of new painting when I can paint again. Thanks so much!
just have fun - no mistakes only learning!
Love your laid back attitude. Will help me overcome the perfectionist barrier..
Love love love your attitude! I needed this one. Thank you!
I've had supplies for a year!!! I'm doing this...I NEED this! Can't wait 🤪
yay!
Very cool😊
I love how you softened it!
Awesome
How clever , fabulous result .
You are cracking me up Ellen! I am playing along. Thank you!
Love this! Thank you.
Glad you enjoyed it!
How Fun!!!! Love it!!!
OMG I love you....I need you in my life....this is exactly what I needed to get out of my perfectionist head. I really appreciate your flat brush tips.
Wow! You are so talented and make watercolor flow and fun! We all appreciate you and your tutorials. Happy New Year and abundant blessings!
Very pretty. I do get stuck in my head so you were talking directly to me! Your advice was spot on! 😁
I am challenged with detail and overworking. I’m gonna wash out some things to see how it works. Why not!
Great idea to blurr the paintings ..adds so much character…yes,we need to get out of our heads for many things
WONDERFUL!!! 👏🏼😃💗💚❤️
Beautiful cards
Glad you like them!
Zip! So quick and so 😍 pretty. I have been getting rather squinchy in my paintings, fussing over every detail...thanks Ellen I will follow your lead, get loose and have fun.
I love this!
Beautiful love your work
I needed this🙏
yay!
J’adore ! Bravo 👏🌺
So pretty-liked it before-loved it afterwards!
🎉I love the atmospheric look!
thanks!
You make it look so easy
Gosto do seu jeito direto e objetivo de ensinar. Direto ao ponto.
Muito obrigado pelo vídeo e saudações do Brasil!
Beautiful
Sweet! I can see that as a beginner, I need to go smaller. I’ve been cutting down Arches to 5 x 7. After seeing this, I will go to 4 x 6 to fit on a 5x7 card. Thanks!
Ty Ellen 😁
Feel Better soon.
I would never have thought about going in afterwards to add plain water to create the abstract. I thought you might have wet the paper first. I really like the abstract! Great video. Hope you feel better soon. This is one of the heavy allergy times for me.
Very nice! Love your style.
Thank you! Cheers!
Delightful!
thanks!
Hey Hey! Straight A grades! I've shared this to my friend. I love the feel of this. I see U getting good at your theme. the ending got me puzzle btw
Thanks!
Commiserations Ellen. Yep, same cold/flu …. in Australia. Have had it since about 5Sep. As has a friend in Ottawa. Most persistent bug we’ve ever had I 60+ years.
argh its a nightmare my son has mono! Covid was Zip this is worse!
And sip pear juice for sore throat! Licorice tea, particularly when combined with peppermint/spearmint tea, helps loosen congestion and stops reflex cough that we found so disruptive at night. Worked for us anyhow.
thank you for these abstract art videos
My pleasure 😊
pls make a watercolor mini of ladybug ❤
already have one look on my minis
💗💙💚💛💜❤
Here is the missing footage from the second card- sorry YT doesn't let you add and rather than taking it down just added missing footage! ua-cam.com/video/lTd86gmHm0o/v-deo.html
❤❤❤❤❤❤Прелесть!!!!
thank you.
How do you tear the cards?
great video…..how do you prevent muddy colors?
try not to bleed them too close esp brights next to browns etc. give them a little white space in between
Do you tear your watercolour paper fot the lovely uneven edges?
Ellen, the palette you use here I love because it has big wells. Can you share where to purchase, please?
hobby lobby
Cool. Thanks.
I tried to watch this to the end, but it's been cut off and roles into another artist's video during a commercial break. Ahhhh!
The video cut off after waiting for the second card to dry.
I know did you see missing footage I posted :)
@@ellencrimitrent Yes!!! Thank you!😊
