  • A few tips and tricks for beginners to improve on your ink and watercolor sketches or urban sketching! I used to think it was hard to paint with watercolor especially if it involves a scene with many different elements, but after some practice and learning from other artists, I now find it fun and much less stressful than before.
    Note that this is not a step-by-step tutorial, so I hope these tips will help you break down the process and paint better with watercolor.

I've set up my Art space and ready to have a go. I have always been interested in painting, like most people I guess; but not enouugh time on our hands. Keep up the fantastic Art work and great tutorials. Your right what you say on previous videos about being completely focused and in the zone when painting.

    I hope you'll never stop painting. I really really really love your art style, it's just so perfect and free which is easier to draw and gives a prestigious look. While drawing it feels like we are feeling the peace, the way you explain everything makes it smooth and easy for us , the flexibility allows us to vanish our mistakes in our own way. Your art is beautiful just like nature, it's colourfull..feels like life. After a long tiring day when i sit on my desk and paint with your guidance i see beauty, the day wasn't so good yet it somehow becomes beautiful.. thanks to you.
    Please try not to stop painting... Your art not only teaches us creativity and how to paint but also brings a positivity in our souls. Thankyou sooo much.
    You are as beautiful as ur arts, you are an artist and precious art at the same time..

Do you talk about your favourite brushes in a video (I will have a look) -- if not, I would be interested to hear your opinions on brushes. Some are ridiculously expensive and I'm sure there are lots of less expensive ones that do a good job.

    • @JilleeArts
      @JilleeArts  Рік тому

      Something to keep in mind is to always visualise and block in the main subjects first so that they all fit on the page. You can always sketch lightly with pencil first and adjust as you go.
      Another thing that might be helpful is doing quick thumbnail sketches to get a good grasp of the structures and overall composition of the piece. Hope that helps!🤗
