  • Paint a whimsical, watercolor turtle with me! Viewers have asked for it, so I've created a paint-along video of a watercolor turtle with some whimsical shell accents. In this video, we take a look at how to break down a subject to draw into basic shapes to take some of the drawing fear out of the process, we look at layering wet watercolors for more dimension, and as always - doodles!!! This video is longer than most of mine because I really wanted to talk about the drawing part. Remember though, you don't have to complete the project in one sitting, work on it a little here and there and come back to it as you have time. Enjoy! Let me know in the comments if you have any questions, and thanks for watching!

    ✏️ Supplies Needed ✏️
    I have only provided specific links for the things that can't be found at any art/craft supply store, and I do not get commission on anything I recommend - these are just the supplies I love.
    Paper: In this video I use Arches 300 lb. watercolor block and I seriously LOVE it!
    Pens: In this video, I use a Uni-ball Eye Fine black pen and a Posca White Paint Pen. I love Sharpies as well, but generally any waterfast pen will work for the linework and doodles (Sakura Pigma Micron pens are excellent and don't smear with water)
    Watercolor: My most used sets are Josie Lewis and Art Philosophy Co. Watercolor Confections sets, however in this video I used Daniel Smith watercolors
    www.josielewis.com/wcshop
    www.artphilosophy.com/
    Tape: I used Scotch Wall Safe Tape, but Washi tape works well too and is generally available at any art/craft store, but you can use painter's tape as well - just be careful when removing that because it can rip the paper.

      Thanks Susan! Josie 's set is excellent! I use hers alot. I often also use the Art Philosophy set called Tropicals. I only have a handful of Daniel Smith colors, but I mix from those for a bigger color range. The Daniel Smith colors I have are Opera Pink, Quinacridone Red, Hansa Yelliw Medium, Sap Green, Phthalo Turquoise ,Phthalo Blue (RS), Quinacridone Purple, Burnt Umber and Chinese White.

    thank you, awesome tutorial. how do you like 300lb . ever tried Arches 140 hot pressed?

    • @PaintedWillowArt
      @PaintedWillowArt  Рік тому

      Thanks! I love 300 lb paper when I'm doing a really water heavy painting. I do go back & forth between that & 140 lb, depending on what I'm doing. Arches cold pressed is my fav at either weight. I've used Arches hot pressed, and while it's great if you're going to be drawing on top because it's so smooth, I still prefer the cold pressed across the board. Have you used the hot pressed?

    Wie man wieder erkennen kann sind die weißen Uni ball stifte richtig Scheiße. Hier in dem Bild bewahrheitet sich das wieder.
    Deswegen werde ich sie niewieder kaufen. Danke für diese Bestätigung. Jemand hat geschrieben es sei die Schuld der Verbraucher. Das hat mich unfassbar wütend gemacht.
    Von wegen Verbraucher schuld.

    • @PaintedWillowArt
      @PaintedWillowArt  2 роки тому

      Weiße Kugelschreiber sind nicht so toll. Nicht die Schuld des Verbrauchers. Ich bevorzuge Posca Farbstifte. Sie machen ein viel besseres Zeichen. Ich hoffe, Google hat das richtig übersetzt.
