      I think when UA-cam first started there was a 5 star rating system, so you could hit 5 stars if they still had that. It seems like it would be more accurate.

That's why I am here, to see if YOU commented on it because I didn't hear Sarah say anything about it and I was wondering how that happened. I figured it was a photo reference thing but, nice to hear it explained AND to actually see the original photo. You ALL did amazing work on this, especially you if w.c isn't your usual media. Have a great day😁

    I was trying to estimate how many artists you have helped "create" out there in the world at large (blame a university professor for this, but it is helpful, a good party trick and surprisingly accurate). I came up with approximately 128,000 new artists on Planet Earth! Amazing, isn't it?! If you ever get discouraged and think all your hard work is for naught, just think of those 128,000 (no joke) budding artists who searched high and low (as I did) on UA-cam and elsewhere for free watercolor instruction and only found so-called teachers who did not teach, but teased, and realize that you are among the few in a public forum who are doing good. Okay, I'll stop now; I see you blushing from the other side of that globe and I will apologize because I also know you don't like that. I'm not a horse person (dogs=love) and probably will never paint this because I'm backed up like crazy now, but who knows. As usual, you make it look so easy! Well, it IS a beautiful process to watch those colors blend on the paper; I LOVE that process you've taught us. Stay yourself, girl; we love you!!

    @bluewren65 3 роки тому

    This is one of the most powerful demonstrations of the difference between paintings made with colours straight from the tube verses and hand-mixed palette that I have seen. The colour is so much more vibrant and this is true even if using a more opaque medium. There is a cohesion that using premixed colour can't give you and generally, you don't get that stunning pigment separation that adds so much luminosity. Nice one, Louise.

    @scarz1951 3 роки тому +5

    Excellent work! The color mixology plus your skill made that beautimous horsey (horsie). Ok. I'll be serious. That is beautiful. Your mastery of those colors resulted in some truly beautiful browns. I love the colors brown, green and purple. Those three colors result in some great landscapes but are useful for animal paintings as well. Very useful for some birdies. Ok. Burds. No? Birds. I use the purple mainly for creating shadows and in shading. Get it right it's really nice. Don't get it right and...well...if you need some paper for starting a fire you have it 😫
    I still love the last few minutes of your vids. Some call it bloopers. I call it sheer comedic genius. Oh yes. Yes I do. I do indeed.

      @@scarz1951 well I'm not always right and I'm not a mind reader. But I'm just guessing that if you were trying to deliberately spell bird in a lot of different ways that were not normal, you would miss Byrds because it actually was the name of a band. I may be reaching, but since it was an actual word of sorts, maybe it didn't qualify as a misspelling. I'm probably overthinking. People always tell me I do that.

I would much rather paint it the way you demonstrated!

    Hello Louise, So love watching your tutorials, beautiful painting of the horse & finding out how you mix your colors…love it.. I haven’t got Windsor green so am wondering what would be the closest green color to Windsor? I have many greens trying to use what I have if possible. Thank you Louise for these amazing videos & for the time & effort which I am sure you would put into doing so. 😊

      I was wondering the same thing myself. I’m going to go look up pigment numbers for that. I use mostly Daniel Smith.

    How do you get your sketches to be exactly the same? The proportions are perfect on both your practice and your final peice.
