  • Опубліковано 25 тра 2022
  • Pretty Sweet Peas are everyone’s favorite, whether you’re a gardener, flower arranger or artist, and as well as being beautiful they have a lovely scent. In fact, in French they are called Pois de Senteur or “scented peas”.
    So today I’ve picked three colors - Cobalt Blue, Permanent Rose and Sap Green, along with my Staedtler pigment liner, and we’re doing some loose flowers sharpened up with ink drawing.

      I'm really glad about that Deb. As a learner you need to paint LOADS of paintings and on a variety of inexpensive paper - that is going to teach you much more than having a couple of sheets of Arches that give you palpitations when you look at it (my case!)

    Thanks so much for this. As a new painter, this is valuable information regarding hot vs cold press. There are so many videos that recommend cold press and Arches paper. But seeing the results today, it seems the freedom of the hot press allows quick results. I suppose it's a matter of experimenting but that gets a bit expensive so this video is useful. Lastly, I really love the paint and pen style as it has such character. Cheers!

    • @DianeAntoneStudio
      @DianeAntoneStudio  2 роки тому +1

      Glad it was helpful! You are right, Arches is really expensive, allows lots of alterations and is ideal for wet in wet or layers. But not at all necessary for quick sketches and light paintings.

    @urbanbeachbum2148 2 роки тому

    I love these sweet peas! Many reviews of Arches praise it for how much water it can hold. I find that to be true; for me, as a beginner, that makes it very unforgiving. For wet in wet, with a lot of water, it flows beautifully. If I painted your sweet peas on Arches, it’s almost immediately to late to add a dab of darker color at the base of the flower as it will be drying so quickly. I’m experimenting with other brands to find something easier for me to work with. Thanks for the encouragement that it may not just be my beginner lack of ability! Today I’ll curse the paper for a change. 😎

    • @DianeAntoneStudio
      @DianeAntoneStudio  2 роки тому

    Love sweet peas and it's amazing to see the difference in the papers! I love Arches but it's interesting to see how the hot pressed paper really did a lot of the work - I never would have realized! Kate (the Last Homely House) is amazing - she does a lot of quilting - something I don't think I could do!

    • @DianeAntoneStudio
      @DianeAntoneStudio  2 роки тому +1

      I totally agree! I love Arches too, it has a special feel to it which nothing else matches. But I also find it a bit demanding. It can soak up a lot of the pigment, meaning you need lots of layers whereas hot press lets the color sit on the surface more. No, I couldn't quilt either - haven't got enough time or patience!

I’m worried about one of my dogs at the moment, who is losing his coat for no apparent reason and who yesterday was violently sick with diarrhoea, which is not like him. We had him neutered about six months ago at the age of seven and I’m praying that this was not a bad decision after many years of agonising over whether or not to have it done. If it turns out that he dies an early death because of what I decided to do it will be hard to take. Animals are our children, aren’t they. Can be a great joy, can be a great sorrow.

    Thank you again Diane. SO love the delicate colours. As a beginner I wonder if you would kindly answer how you do such simple brush strokes and create something magical - I just don't know how to do that. is there a technique or is it the brush? Thank you.

      Thanks so much for your kind comments. I wish I could have you beside me to show you what I do, but essentially it’s about getting the water right in relation to the paint x

    Thank you for sharing your experience and knowledge, however it would be more beneficial to beginners to explain the techniques, water amount shapes, etc have a great day!

      Oh thanks so much, I hadn't seen the donation. Really appreciate that. It has been a truly epic work project to get this channel where it is. I could not have done it without my daughter who is about 75% of the channel, unseen, and my loyal band of subs and viewers. Thanks again and good luck with your channel x

      ​@watercolorpaintingintheaft9142 Very nice. I didn't notice you had a channel until Diane mentioned it in the comment... it looks fun, I've subscribed. I have a huge mixed media book and I'm trying to paint something every day. Most days, I only have a few minutes, so I'm always looking for some fun little thing to do.

    Do you have any instructional lessons for a true beginner? Like what brush to use and how to make strokes.

    I've been trying (very hard) to find the time that you go live. As you''re in Europe, I know it's probably about 8 hours earlier than I am, but I'm a night person, and I would really like to know.

    I've been watching a few of your videos lately and i notice that you don't tape down your paper. Most watercolor artists i watch do... Is there a reason? Just love this painting. I hope to give it a try..

    • @DianeAntoneStudio
      @DianeAntoneStudio  2 роки тому

      Hi Deb, thanks for your comments, I often do tape down, but this painting didn't need a lot of water, or a lot of work, so I didn't bother. If I need to do a lot of wet work, or go to the edges, I usually stretch my paper. Hope this helps! Have fun!

    Can I ask please which is your favourite paper to use ?.

    • @DianeAntoneStudio
      @DianeAntoneStudio  2 роки тому +1

      It does depend on what I'm painting to be honest. I do like Arches when I'm doing wet-in-wet, landscapes and larger flowers for example. I like Bockingford and Etival for everyday practice and odds and ends. Those are cold-press. I like hot-press by anyone for florals like this one. Hope that helps x

      @@DianeAntoneStudio In the States, Bockingford and Etival are both more expensive or similar in price to Arches, which is much easier to get. Anyone know of a less expensive option here? I've tried Canson XLWatercolor paper which is much cheaper and had less than great results. Perhaps I need to try a different style on each like you did Diane!

      @@pennythedomelady I cut my watercolor teeth on Arches and struggle with every less expensive paper I've tried. So far, I like Canson watercolor paper the least and do a bit better with Fabriano, Strathmore and Grumbacher. I get better results, though, with Bee and Canson mixed media papers as long as I don't use much water since they are thinner papers.
