    Im healing just by watching this magic happen. Im so tired from work emotionally and physically. I just want to escape to this fantasy by painting magics everyday.

    So I did what you said at the beginning and I chose colors that I like: pinks, purples, and teal and I started just putting the paint on the paper but as I did it I started seeing mountains and clouds and so instead of following along with you, I just tried to pick out those shapes… then I worked on adding details like yours at the end with the plants and it turned out sooo cool! I feel so accomplished having made something purely from my imagination. :) thank you for the inspiration!

    I AM SO THRILLED to have found you. Your art is inspiring and etherial and truly magical. I did my own version of this in one of the pages of my current sketchbook - but when I start a new one, I am going to do something similar. I ADORE your style. Your calming voice too, make this so easy and relaxing to follow. I hope you add more of your beautiful art!

    Dear Ruth, thank you for sharing the steps that make an incredibly beautiful magical painting. I definitely have page one nervousness but with this tutorial it seems surmountable. ❤🎨🖼️
    And pointing out the brushes you use is also very helpful.

    I will never get tired watching your YT videos on your painting, they look so soft and beautiful, vibrant colours and similar to watercolor. I uses watercolor for painting, i will attempt gouche one day, color looks more vibrant.

    I am aspiring to learn gouache painting because of how I am so amazed with the way an artist use it. I just don’t like how they draw before painting as I am a man of free spirit so I’d like my arts to be free of sketches and just go with the language of colors and your video is just exactly what I needed. My favorite thing is also an enchanted forest so I am really thankful I found your art! This is just really breath-taking!

I am really struggling to paint anything these days).

    • @RuthWilshaw
      @RuthWilshaw  2 роки тому +2

      Hey Pippi, using cold press cotton paper helps so much with this! The paint can sink into the surface a little and the paper is very thirsty and quickly sucks all the moisture out of the paint- it takes more water to reactivate gouache on this type of paper, which makes layering much easier!

    I can’t help but notice you have two jars of water. Why? Why bother with two if you’re going to muddy them both up with color?
    It seems the entire point of having TWO jars of water has been completely lost on the majority of YT water-media painters.
    One jar if water is to clean the brushes.
    The other is for CLEAN water in order to keep colors from muddying up.
    The worst thing is that people new to watercolor or gouache are looking to you all for guidance, lessons and best practices and are getting bad habits in with the mix.
