What tool do you use to get your values right? Do you think this one would be helpful?
This is a very helpful tool. Sometimes I also turn my reference photo into a three- or four-value black and white photo to determine darkest darks and lightest lights. Thank you!
@@MrPuddinhead61 Thank you! I do think that it is helpful to turn a photo into black and white. I believe it gives a good feel for composition too! Thanks for sharing!
@@MrPuddinhead61 That's a great method. It also really helps with getting a good composition!
Absolutely 👍 I only dabble... maybe someday. 😊
@@sharonsunshine2532 Hope you get more dabbling time!
Dear lady, you've just guided me to paint a beautiful birthday card for a friend. Thank you for the experience!
Yay! I’m so glad!
@@thewatercolorclassroom-bec7040 🤗
I’ve actually never used anything to check my values. For 10 years now I’ve been a beginner with watercolors. I hated them for the longest time but really wanted to pursue improvement. I will definitely try this out. It’s a wonderful idea. I love the subject and colors your painting. I will give this painting a go. Thank you for sharing your knowledge.
You’re welcome. I hope this takes your paintings to the next level!
I love your description that for 10 years you have been a beginner. I started painting 5 years ago and found an early painting. I am no better now than I was then. Well, maybe a little better, but not much. So I am a 5 year beginner.
I am a beginner beginner, as my mum is 103 yrs old I have not much spare time I am a 14 year beginner ha ha! What paints are these please X?
@@juneyourbothamazingauger8348 I use MGraham paints. All the information you need can be found in the comments. Blessings as you care for your mum. Hoping you find moments to paint!
@@sidneybales9062 I’m hoping that you will keep painting and not be too hard on yourself.
I just found your channel, and I love this video! As I'm currently struggling with the hues and values of shadows on a yellow and pink rose, I'm going to make this simple tool to lessen my frustration. Thank you, Becky, for showing us how you were constantly checking your values and hues and patiently adding layers to get everything right. What a refreshing change from so many YT videos that are "one stroke and done".
Thank you! I’m so glad you found it helpful! Good luck with your pink and yellow roses. If it is the roses I am thinking of, it is an adventurous project.
Your method of getting really spot on values and hues. I learned a lot. Thanks so much.

@@suzannebabineau1199 You are very welcome!!
Thanks for sharing this. This is the best tip I've seen since 1986 for getting the values right. You made excellent points throughout and I can feel confident sending new watercolorists to you.❤
@@CallMeGailyn Thank you so much! That is a lovely compliment!
The squares… brilliant!
Thank you!
Awesome idea on checking the values! Great job!
Thank you!
😮 WOW! I am so happy I found this video 😊
Yay! I’m glad you found it too!
amazing! thank you!!
Thanks! I’m glad you enjoyed it.
Beautiful. Thank you
Your very welcome!
I painted some Chinese lanterns like this a few years ago, and although it turned out pretty well, it needed something I couldn’t put my finger on. This video and the idea of the value squares really helped!
Thank you!
Learned so much here! Thank you so much!
I’m so glad you found it helpful!
Wow! Thank you!
You’re welcome!
Awesome tips! Thank you!

Thank you!
What a wonderful work. Thank you!
Thank you!
Amazing ❤
Thank you!
Really love this one! Great fall painting.
Thank you!
What a brilliant idea!
Thank you! I got it by combining a tool that Stan Miller introduced to me and a tool that Gloria Miller introduced to me.
This is so good! Beautiful job!!
Thank you!
What a great tip! Thank you so much for sharing and your painting looks amazing 😊
Thank you! I’m so glad you found it helpful!
What a great idea this is!

WOW!!!! I give up to early... Lesson learned!
Thank you!
You've got some great techniques! Thanks!
You’re welcome!
Excellent 😊
Thank you!
Oh that helps so much !! Thank you !! Bravo by the way !! 💚✌️💚
Thank you so much!
That little hole punch tool is a genius idea.
Thank you! I got the idea by combining a couple of different tools to make that one.
That's beautiful! I just found your channel, I really like how you explain your process. I like the idea of the little square to see the exact colors. That's a great idea.
Thank you! I’m so glad you enjoyed it!
Thank you for the very helpful video, I enjoyed it so much!💖
You are so welcome!
Yay! Happy painting!
super realistic 3D painting. Thanks for sharing
I’m glad you liked it!
I love how you did the background it looks like light is filtering thru and softened the entire painting. I’m just starting watercolor but I’m going to try this. I found I like sketching with watercolor pencils so the lines disappear. I don’t know if I can get anywhere close to yours but I was able to sketch it pretty close which I was proud of because drawing is never a skill I thought I had. I am a self taught acrylic painter and water color is so much harder but I love it. Thanks for this from a serious newbie!!
Thank you! Welcome to the watercolor adventure! I have a few other videos that explain the bokeh technique you’re talking about. Here is one your might like. m.ua-cam.com/video/R0LbgsZc7hw/v-deo.html I’m hoping to do one that explains all my favorite ways to do it.
Thank you for such an enjoyable video. I found it very helpful and particularly liked the way you tackled the background. I’ve only managed that sort of effect with pastels. I can’t wait to try it out.
I’m so glad you found it helpful. I have a whole video on backgrounds, and another just on bokeh background. Have fun! Here are the links in case you’re interested. m.ua-cam.com/video/3_JO3MvSlRA/v-deo.html m.ua-cam.com/video/-P6mO0jiMXM/v-deo.html
BRILLIANT IDEA! Thank you!!!
Yay. Glad it helped!
I just discovered you channel and love how you teach. I usually shy away from videos where sections are sped up - I'd rather watch "real time" painting. Real time doesn't break the relaxation vibe of the video. And as a beginner, the repetition of what your are doing is very helpful. Could you include more real time in your videos? I look forward to viewing and painting some of your previous videos.
Thank you so much. Before I had sped up parts, I was just cutting chunks of the video out. Unfortunately people just don’t seem to watch 1-3 hour videos. I may do a live one at some point and then it would be in real time.
Thank you so much
You’re welcome!

Wonderful 3D tutorial, wow! I find it very helpful. Thank you so much
Thank you! I’m so glad it was helpful.
Thanks for this! Love the low-tech solution that works. Your painting is gorgeous, thanks for sharing 🥰
Thank you! 😊
This showed up today in my feed, and it's just what I needed. Thank you for sharing your techniques.
You’re most welcome!
This s really lovely with a great tool for finding the right color/shade!
I’m so glad you liked it.
Awe yes. I've been making my own hue value finder, using my scrap watercolor paper and hole punch for years. Since 2010 when I took a workshop with Susan Harrison -Tustain. It was blast! Beautiful work!
She does beautiful work. I bought a video from her many years ago but never saw a tool like this in that one. Lovely to get to take a class from her.
i loved the background it is so beautiful thank you for sharing ❤
Thank you!
Love the Bokeh technique and the darks and lights just magical ..Thankyou and subscribed
Thank you for your sweet words!
WOW! It encourages me to try and improve my water coloring.💖
That’s great!
I can’t wait to try to paint this!!! I’ll let you know how it goes!! Thank you so much for all your knowledge and sharing:) ❤
I would love to hear how it goes.
I just found your channel. Such a great idea. I struggle with value in my work. This is lovely! Great video!
Thank you!
Lovely! The tool used to check the values and hues is innovative. Loved it!. Thank you for sharing.❤
Thank you! I hope you find it helpful!
Wow, that was amazing! Your painting was so much nicer than the photo! Thank you for the tips and tricks. I'm a newbie and have lots to learn.
Thank you!!
Very nice and contains soo much information 😊
Thank you!
This is best game changing tool I've ever come across. It's fantastic and thank you for sharing!
Thank you! I’m so glad you like it!
Awesome tips ... love the way you did the background bokeh
Thank you!
❤🙋🏼♀️Thank you, Fran in Tennessee
You’re welcome.
Wow, that's they way I once took photos, and I didn't know how to paint it in watercolour. This video is very helpful! Thank you ❤ I just subscribed.
Thank you! I’m so glad it’s helpful.
This is little tool is gold! I never thought to isolate colors and I’m a “Big Picture” viewer to boot.
I’m glad you like it!
Best I’ve ever seen over the last three years I’ve watched hundreds of videos I get happy accidents you are no accident. Amazing
Thank you so much for your kind words!
New subscriber.... your painting is gorgeous. I really like the music, the way you teach.... it's so relaxing.
Thank you! Glad you liked it.
Großartig! Das Gemäkde gefällt mir viel besser als das Foto.
Herzlichen Dank für den Tip.
You’re welcome!
Yes! I think it worked quite well! I am excited to try it on my next painting! God bless you.
Thank you. May He bless you as well!
You are an amazing watercolorist. Ive started approximately 2 yrs ago now, and not sure ill ever get as good as some of you ive been watching. Thank you for sharing your painting.
Thank you for your kind words. Good luck on your watercolor journey!
Beautiful little painting... I have a yard full of those little chinese lanterns!! I really do love them in the fall. Great trick with the tiny window, that was really an eye opener.. pardon the pun! Glad I found your channel.
Haha. Thank you! I love them too. They’re so colorful! I would like to plant some next year.
Hermosooo intentare pintarlo❤❤❤❤😊
Thank you.
A lovely channel and facebook group, and a useful trick for getting values right. My technique is actually doing a monochromatic value sketch first, then I try to translate that into colour, then take a black and white photograph and compare that to a bw photo of my reference...but your technique is much simpler, thank you!!
Thank you for your kind words! I’m glad you found it helpful!
This just amazing. Will have to try to do this technique. Chinese lanterns never looked so good
Thank you so much!
This is great tool! 👍
You asked about tools we use. I use several, but one that has been helpful in studio when working from photos has been using my photo software to open an image, next create a white border or whatever base color I am painting against and then use the select color tool to grab the color in the photo and paint it onto that border. I am able to get my lightest to darkest range, but I can also change the image into black and white to look at values. I had to learn what looks like a different color is the same color that looks different because of what other color it is next to. For those needing sketch help, it can even do a line image from it to simplify the sketching process. I can also take or put my image into my amoled tablet because it gives it a warmer color screen. Really good for when I want to pick between warm or cool palettes. (I am so old school, I used to have to select if I used Fuji or Kodak gold 35mm film to get these warm or cool palettes in my photo outcomes). Times have really changed and so have immediate results!
You don’t sound old school to me. It seems you have this down to a science. Thank you. I will try to figure out how to select colors. I’m not too techy.
This sounds helpful, but what software do you use that does all that?😊
Дивовижно! Один в один! ❤❤❤
Thanks. I can’t read your language, but I understand the hearts!
Great idea! Wonder if using acetate and punching would be even more helpful for placement?
You could try it. I suspect that having something see through would make it harder to isolate one little spot. But it would be interesting to know. Let me know how it goes!!
You have done this so beautifully. How do you do the initial drawing from the photo? Are you sketching it, or tracing or some other method?
Thank you. I traced the grapes and a leaf or two, then drew the rest of the leaves. It saves so much time! Here is how I trace, just in case you want to know. m.ua-cam.com/video/JjGTbCK__w8/v-deo.html
Thanks for responding! I did watch more of your videos! I know you are using M.Graham wc. ❤ (I love that brand also!) But it looks like you have big wells of paint? I love that!! You squeeze them into a special type of palette? It's very cool. I've never seen one like it. What is it? Thank you❤❤! Your work is beautiful!! Love your channel!
Thank you so much. The palette is called a Premium Palette. It was designed by a watercolor artist. Just google it. Each well holds a whole tube of paint which is rather amazing. If you order from her, would you please tell her I told you about it. I am trying to set up an affiliate with her so we can both help each other.
Thank you, Becky!! 😊 I am going to order that today! And I will mention you for sure! Thanks for sharing your skills and knowledge! Love your channel!
@@animalparty8206 You’re welcome. You’ll love that palette!!!
Hi! Gorgeous work! Great tips!!❤❤❤❤ What kind of paint are you using?
Thank you. This was done with watercolor paint!
Beber than the photo❤
Awww! Thank you!
I also use this method but I use my paint swatch cards. I use a hole punch and I put a hole on every color shift on my swatch
That sounds like you’d need a lot of color swatches. Did you make them yourself? I partly got the idea from someone who had a gray scale strip with holes punched in them.
first time i saw your video, it is just wowww. you paint so well. but when saw your subscribers i feel so sad that this kind of talent is not reaching the public... love form INDIA
Thank you! That is very kind of you.
Your painting looks better than the original.
Aww. Thank you! That always is my goal but I didn’t think I’d achieved it!
i don’t use any tools to check the value but some times i use black and white version of my reference
I’ve done that too. I ended up settling on this idea. Whatever works is great!
Absolutely lovely! You are a wonderful artist! Thank you for sharing with us! I couldn’t see the size of the squirrel quill, brush… could you please let us know or edit the list! Thanks very much!
Thank you so much! It is in the link in the comments. #00
New subscriber here. So for the 3d effect , one has to dip the stencil brush in to color and brush it on the paper?
Welcome! The stencil brush is used with clear water that removes some of the paint. Occasionally, but not often, I will dip it in a bit of paint. Here is another video that plains bokeh effect a bit more. m.ua-cam.com/video/-P6mO0jiMXM/v-deo.html
Thank you for this beautiful inspiration. What do you call the technique of the circles you created in the background? I also saw your other video of the birdhouse...just beautiful. Thank you
It is called bokeh (pronounced bōkay) and is used in photography. This video on backgrounds shows a bit more about how to do it. m.ua-cam.com/video/3_JO3MvSlRA/v-deo.html
@@thewatercolorclassroom-bec7040 Thank you! Beautiful work!
@@dragonfly5220 Your welcome!
Still not sure about notification. Do all buildings have intercom speakers?
???
In the UK these are called chineese lanterns, I prefer what you called them. Could you laminate the cards then punch the hole out? Beautiful looks like you can pick them up
Thank you. I don’t remember what I called it but I thought it was a Japanese lantern. I just looked it up and see that it can be called either one. I’m not sure you could laminate something on rough watercolor paper. I think it would leave some air, but I’m not an expert on laminating.
Beautiful! And interesting how you created what in photography is called "bokeh effect"
Last week I posted a video about 3 backgrounds. One of them was about bokeh. I think it’s super dun to do!
was that round scrubber also from Silver?
That was a craft stencil brush. Sorry I actually posted it under the “other supplies” in the comments.
@@thewatercolorclassroom-bec7040 Oh, thank you. I missed it.
What size Silver Atelier Squirrel Blend brush did you use?
It should be in the comments. It is 00
How do I learn to sketch the picture? I am a beginner. Thank you
This video is what I recommend for new artists. I still often usually use it just to save time. The photo reference can be found on paint my photo. Happy painting! m.ua-cam.com/video/JjGTbCK__w8/v-deo.html
What size paintbrush did you use for this painting? 20?
I believe the brushes are listed in the comments. I didn’t use anything as large as a #20 since it is a small painting.
Looks like the second one is correct color for number three up and second one needs more green. the way I'm seeing color.No???
❤
Thank you!
Traducción al español mexicano GRACIAS
You’re Welcome!!
Second one from bottom you did not check and it is too bright.????
Perhaps, but I must not have minded since I left it. 😁
And the game changing tool is?
The little squares.
Pay attention
@@captaindrywallWrong advice. Copying the color with a "color checker", which is what the square piece of paper with a square hole is, does not make your painting "3D". Correct drawing, control of edges and correct color value is what makes your artwork "3D". Try again. :D
"Everything you need to make this painting is in the comments below".
Except, of course, TALENT, lol!
At least a LITTLE of which you need.
Haha. True, but I am always amazed at what beginners who want to paint and who get some instructions can do!! If they practice then wow!
However yours is prettier.ha.
Thank you. My goal is always to improve on the photo, although I loved this one so not sure I achieved that.
❤
Thank you!
