finally I have the impression that I understand and see what the water and paint do under different conditions. I was so tired of time lapses videos or boring explanations about washes and sunsets. The camera work was fantastic too. You are the greatest jewell of youtube. Thank you!
Wow!!! Both Roger, the videographer, and I thank you.
Absolutely and thank you
You are such a good teacher.not just what to do but when,how,and why.thank you
You are so welcome
I have never seen that process broken down step by step before. Thank you for sharing these details. That really helped me.
Great to hear, Laura. I look forward to meeting you in the Creating Emphasis workshop.
so amazing. watched this a few times and took notes. softening the edge with dried paint under was so good.
Glad you enjoyed it! Have fun with watercolor.
Thank you for that tip - best explanation of glazing I've seen yet, particularly as you explained your choice of colors to create a harmonious image.
Glad it was helpful! Thanks for watching.
I just watched 10 videos on layering and glazing and, by far, yours was the most thorough and informative. Thank you. 😊
You are so welcome! And thanks!
Allowing for the adequate drying time is one of the most difficult aspects of glazing in watercolor, or any other medium. I enjoy seeing the process demonstrated and how the glazing layers enriched the overall colors. Thank you.
My pleasure. For a long time I have contended that paying attention to the degree of wetness/dryness is the key to good watercolor results.
You got my attention right off the bat when you showed us how to tell if the notan part was dry enough. I just never know what I'm going to learn from your videos, which is why I watch every single one! Thank you so much and have a wonderful day! 💖
Super!!! Thanks for watching, Ravenzpeak.
This is so very helpful. It helped me get past a few stumbling points. I knew what I wanted to achieve but didn't know how to do it.
Wonderful!
You're one of the reasons why i use youtube :)))))
Wow! Thanks.
First time looking at your videos, and very happy I stumbled across your channel..Your subject at first looked very difficult, but as soon as you explained everything, it became so much easier and clearer to understand, probarbly one of the best and easiest glazing techniques videos so far... I am sure it wont be as easy when having to do it all by myself...I have learned throughout my life that everything takes time and nothing turns out perfect first time... practice makes perfect.. thank you very much..
Welcome aboard, Ali. These kinds of control come with practice somewhere other than on a painting itself. Controlling the amount of water in the brush, on the palette and on the paper, and moving the brush forward with a minimum of stroking will make it happen.
This video is brilliant. Such beautiful color. Thank you so much Dianne.
Thank you!
I think I finally understand glazing. Thank you!
You are so welcome! Have fun with the process.
Thank you for an excellent presentation about glazing. I plan on watching it again. One of the best teaching sessions I've watched! I'm subscribed.
Glad it was helpful!
I learn new methods today thank you
Most welcome 😊
Best info ever❣️
Many thanks.
I watches a second time and was struck by how all the beautiful background layers were popping through. For gorgeous dimension. I was wondering if you would do a quick tip on watercolor reflections in the water and also how to lay in shadows with watercolor. Thank you for all you do. You are amazing.
Thanks, Marie. I'll put that one on our schedule. Since we film these several weeks in advance, it will be at least August before it appears.
Ty for sharing your knowledge. Looking forward to Watercolor Lessons on the Website ! Just saying .
Oh my!!! If I could only carve out more hours in a day and days in weeks....
Pure magic! Thank you Dianne.
Thanks, Laura!
A great lesson 👏
Letting it dry "without help" is the hard part for me;).
But it makes a bit difference.
Patience, my friend.
Thank you for your time and knowledge. Can you do a part 2 to continue with this paint ing? I would love to wait and listen to how to finish it. You are a great teacher.
I know people always want to see how I would finish an exercise, but when I'm showing a specific technique like this, I want the emphasis on the process, not the product. If you want to see an example of how I finish when the glazing process is used with watercolor, take a look at one of my moth paintings at www.diannemizestudio.com/like-icarus
Finally I understand how to create a color shade properly
Great! Have fun with it.
Woow, I want to paint with watercolor after seeing this! So beautiful
Every painting medium has wonderful potential.
Im starting a watercolor course 17/9, fulltime the year out. I really want to learn watercolor
Beautiful painting 🖌️
Thanks for watching.
Thanks so much Dianne! Amazingly helpful for us watercolor painters. I would love to see the finished product.
You know what? You can do that yourself. Find a subject. Use the glazing method and find your own way to finish it.
Thank you so much Dianne for answering my question, I really appreciate it and I feel privileged. You truly are the maestro :)
I learnt so many things from this video that I never knew. I have spent so much time trying to learn this technique with no success.
You are such a great teacher I think I finally understand how to do it!
If I can achieve those beautiful glowing colors, those hard and soft edges, the light and the shadow - and it ends up looking harmonious - wow that would be amazing! Thank you so much!
You can do it!!! Enjoy the journey!
I wasn't aware that you could do this with watercolor. Very helpful, thank you!
Oh yes. It's one of the oldest techniques in the history of watercolor painting.
Thank you for your generosity
My pleasure.
Many thanks! This is much different than most videos on watercolor. Very helpful to have the details explained:)
You're very welcome, Belinda. Thanks for watching.
Thank you so much! This is so helpful!
You're so welcome! Thanks for watching.
I love this technique
It's one of the original watercolor techniques.
Beautiful! thank you, Dianne!
You are so welcome!
Noteworthy! Thank you for this interesting video! Thank you Very much for sharing, stay connected, pls.💜..
Thank you, I will
Beautifully done, Dianne!!
Thanks, Joani!
Wonderful work and explanation.
Thanks.
I love your instruction and learn so much. I'm glad you do some in watercolor. This I can practice. I love the leaves too. Some color theory too. Good hint to take a break (I'm impatient by nature)
Thanks for watching.
Enjoyed the video, thanks for your tips !
You bet! Thanks for watching.
Thank you for this wonderful watercolor tutorial on glazing. I didn’t realize I could glaze the entire painting.
Oh yeah. If it works, we do it.
Very interesting. I have never tried with watercolor but did with acrylics (with medium in several layers) and of course with oils.
It's one of those almost universal skills.
So valuable thank you
You're so welcome!
Thank you !
You're welcome!
You are a wonderful teacher Dianne, thanks so much for this great explanation of several techniques (glazing, negative painting) that you touched on in this video. One question I have is how does one determine in what order to apply the various colors of a glazed painting?
Thanks, Linda. One determines the sequence of colors according to which color you want to emphasize. I suggest doing many splotches where you switch up the sequence in order to see the results.
Thank you.
Welcome!
We are so dry now in Western Australia. Solution? of course. I must return to my first love. Watercolours. And I am working on a leaf painting... so this energises me and helps me with technique thank you so much
Have fun with it!
Excellent
Thanks
Glazing I had seen in more botanical artists like Ana mason ...and direct painting seen with Liron yankosky....I like Liron s confidence
Yes, direct watercolor painting requires confidence, but so does glazing when it's done right. It's more about how the artist handles it than the technique itself that renders comparative results.
Loved your quick tip #315 on watercolor glazing. I have a question: was that a filbert brush you were using? If not, what was it? Thank you for all your tips and videos they are so helpful and enjoyable.
Yes, it was. I was using the SAA Extra Large Oval Wash brush.
I loved this tips! I liked that paper it's really sturdy, may I ask what paper is it?
The paper I'm using her is Saunders 200 lb cold press.
@@IntheStudioArtInstruction thank you!
Dianne, May I ask what is a good watercolor mop brush for large sky washes (not for glazing)? What I have in my collections are Escoda Versatil synthetics and Raphael mop brushes. The Raphael brushes don't come to any point, just spread out. Perhaps beacause I purchased them many years ago and haven't used them in a long time? The Escodas are wondeful but aren't really wash brushes. I would love a wash brush which comes to a point. What is the brush you are using for the glazing? All the best, Carol.
Carol, mop brushes do spread out for the most part. My preferred mop brush is the Raphael Softaqua #805. It both spreads and comes to a good point.
In this Quick Tip, I am using a 25 mm SAA Extra Large Oval Wash. It is not a mop, but an excellent general wash brush.
@@IntheStudioArtInstruction WOW! SAA from England! This brings me back years ago when I had access to a stack of their magazines. Thanks so much for the helpful info re the Raphael brush. All the best.
From cheap brushes I would suggest Daler Rowney graduate Oval wash 1 inch and/or 3/4 of inch(graduate goes often on sale pay for 2 get 3 brushes. Usually price is 2-3£ per brush,so for 10£ can get like 9 very decent brushes)At first They was loosing bit of hair but soon stopped loosing them and now serve me very good for bigger washes,Sky)it’s sort of ,,cats tongue,,form natural hair brushes,like them a lot.
And then in TEMU I found a big-huge Chinese calligraphy brush probably size 30-40 over 2cm in diameter and over 7cm in length hair goes to very fine point,takes up loads of water,natural hair in black plastic handle...also,washed it well when it came,lost bit of hair at start and now its my favourite biggest brush I have for very big watercolour and it was under 4£!!!!
If money is no issue and you’re not on budget or wanna splurge on present for you’re self on best quality I say go check out Rosemary&Co site,they have many stunning brushes.Love their triangular series 40,rigger brushes that have like fat belly and Ofcourse sable brushes,that with decent care will serve for decade or till end of life depending how often you paint,I have 2 sable brushes from them more than decade olds and still looking and working grate on daily basis.last thing I got was Sable cat tongue similar as graduate one I described,1inch brush that cost me more than 20 times more than graduate 🤪don’t tell it to my husband please,he may divorce😂I feel guilty and use graduate the most,leaving sable one for special occasions at the end it is Ofcourse better than graduate but not more than 20 times more and if at the end you’ll feel guilty as me and end up using more cheeper brushes get the graduate brush and enjoy it.
Brilliant
Thanks, but I didn't invent this.
@@IntheStudioArtInstruction Good demo
what kind of brushes do you use for watercolor?
John, I have a number of watercolor brushes. My favorite flats and rounds are the original version of Cheap Joe's dreamcatcher. Recently, I am enjoying laying loose washes and shaping wet in wet and wet in damp with the SAA extra large oval wash. And my newest discovery for thin lines is the Princeton Neptune dagger. Also recently, I am reaching more and more for Escoda Versatil rounds that were given to me.
Dear Dianne... regarding watercolour I had seen artists who directly , confidently put exact colour in first wash and on the other hand, I had seen doing layers of glazing... slowly...I find artists who paint in single layer are sure of the colour and values than glazers. Is it true?
Not really. They are totally different techniques, each having it's own purpose. The glazing method was one of the original watercolor techniques. The direct method came much later.
I’m working on an oil painting of a cave wall. (9’ x 5’ with sculpted outcroppings) The challenge that I am facing is to paint it with artificial lights inside the cave from underneath. Usually light sources come from above. I’m using the photographs of the Lascaux, France cave walls as inspiration. The other challenge is that I’m intending this to be viewed from a close distance of 3 to 5 feet. Help?!
One of the best ways to make determinations like this is to set up a maquette. James Gurney does this for his imaginative paintings. In your case, a cardboard box in which you place little figures or 3-D shapes and lights from above to simulate the artificial lighting inside a cave. This is the best way to know for sure what the lighting is doing to the imagery.
To study the effect, your images need not be as precise and detailed as Gurney makes his. That's up to you. Search "james gurney construction maquettes" on UA-cam to see how he does it.
