Neuroscience research shows that handwriting study notes improves memory recall more than typing your notes in class. I like your point that you will remember so much more when you sketch what you see on location instead of (just) pressing a button. As a watercolorist, I tried to create pocket kits with some success, but it was still a balancing act, sitting on a rock above a river etc. Sketching is also something I enjoy, but I do crave color. I've just ordered some Inktense watercolor pencils after re-finding a small box of fantasia watercolor pencils I'd barely tried out years ago. That and a water pen a friend gave me 2 weeks ago. Thanks for your inspiration in this video.
Finally someone who uses watercolour pencils in a way that appeals to me. Mixing on the pencils is brilliant. I've been in a slump and this video has given me the kick in the butt that I needed. Thanks very much.
You come across as such a kind and gentle soul Charles. You have a wonderful talent and relaxing way of demonstrating your skill. Good to see you back man. Stay safe and well. 🙏👍🎨
I totally agree MrsBlue Sky! I have missed your videos a lot, while respecting your wish to take a break. I like to watch you being you as well as watching your excellent painting instruction.
There is nothing more satisfying than Watercolor and Pen and Ink... These Watercolor Pencils are new to me... I'm very old school... LOL Thank you so much for sharing this great video...
Thank You! I happened upon your book Quick and Clever watercolor pencils at a second hand store and snatched it up. I have 2 sets of pencils and didn't know how to use them so thanks for the tutorial and showing your sketchbooks.
SO MUCH BEAUTY TO MEMORALISE IN COLOR- SO LITTLE TIME! I AM ABSOLUTELY, BLOWN AWAY BY YOUR SKILL!! PLUS, YOU HAVE A GOOD SENSE OF HUMOR! THANKS FOR SHARING YOUR KNOWLEDGE ON UA-cam!! I USE UA-cam AS A A FREE LEARNING TOOL EVERY DAY- THANKS TO THE GENEROSITY OF ALL THE AMAZING PEOPLE - WHO JUST LOVE TO SHARE THERE KNOWLEDGE- FREE!!
Thanks for your time and generosity in doing this video! I've been rather struggling with watercolor pencils and am anxious to put your techniques to use!
He is an excellent teacher. I thoroughly enjoyed listening to him, and learning how he used watercolor pencils. Thank you for showing the different techniques of using water color pencils.
Hello I am so sorry if this sounds weirds but you wrote such a nice and wonderful comment on here and I like your comment. I can tell you're a very positive person. If it's okay with you I'd love to be your friend. If you don't mind I will love to chat with you and get to know you more. It will be nice if I have your email so I can send you a message.
Glad to see you back! I found this really enjoyable. I love the idea of starting the painting in the field then finishing it once you return home. I have just always used watercolor pencils when I don't want to drag everything out and have a short period of time, like waiting in the doctor's office. I have never used my watercolor brushes with them but rather water brushes, since it requires no water container. Derwent makes a nice roll that has enough space for three water brushes, a spritzer, small sharpener, and 24 pencils. This travels with me everywhere in my tote. Look forward to more ideas like these!
Im so happy to have found your channel. I recently became 16 years old and got accepted into a prestigious art school in Germany. Im looking forward to learning from you ! You explain it in such a simple and calm demeanor...it really takes away the fear of trying something new :). I aspire to be such cool artist like you one day ૮₍˶ᵔ ᵕ ᵔ˶₎ა

Love this demo and how spontaneous you are doing it. Can’t help chuckling when you so matter of factly wipe the pencils against your shirt sleeve! Will have it a go at this! 😊
I first discovered you through your book "Acrylics for the absolute beginner" -I got it even though I have been painting with acrylics for years, and it opened a gate to a new world for me. You have a magical way of teaching. You make things seem so simple, I always think when reading you "oh, yes, so that's how to do that! That doesn't seem too hard!" and then suddenly I am improving! Today I find that you are on youtube too. What a blessing! Thank you. Be always well.

Good morning Charles ...lovely to see you back god we,ve missed you, great little video packed with tips and technique as always.....hope your all well up there......
I am completely besotted with the way you do your tutorials. Thank you for being who you are and like some not talking "down" on us as much of the so called famous people do. ................
Loved this new video on watercolour pencils. I have 2 of your watercolour books and two of your watercolour pencil books. Love them. Thank you!!!! Keep on with the watercolour pencil tutorials as there aren't many on You Tube.
The best watercolor pencils video I've watched so far! And that's saying quite much, because I've watched tons of them! Thanks for sharing your beautiful art and also your invaluable knowledge.
It was good to see such a talented artist using this medium. I love watercolor pencils and use them in most of my work. Since I usually do life drawings from models, it’s really useful to have something that allows for speed. If you haven’t tried them, I would suggest that you try using a water brush with this type of color pencil. Having the water feed in the handle is quite helpful, but another good thing is how stiff but flexible the bristles are. Sometimes the pigment seems to require a stiffer brush than a regular brush and the water brushes fulfill this, while keeping a good point.
WOW! some fabulous tips here. Came across this by chance...I have some watercolor pencils for awhile...fairly beginner I am...so far, only succeeded in doing birds and signatures with them...hahaha...now I will begin to try truly using them!!!!
I'm just starting to experiment with watercolor pencils and your video has been an inspiration, thank you! I hope one day to have sketchbooks filled with memories just like you
Great to see you back Charles. I love the practical advice in your videos and it’s brilliant to see you work through your sketches in real time. So pencils and sketch book in hand it’s out to the hills I go. Much appreciated and stay safe.
Yessssss! Thank you for showing some tips to use with watercolor pencils. I smiled while watching this because it made me believe I could do something with my new watercolor pencil set I just got. Love your artwork ♥️
Charles I am a Watercolorist Amateur in Indianapolis Indiana and I have follow you for years now, decided to buy your Pocket Book for watercolor artist; waiting to arrives from Amazon in the next week or so, can't wait to read it... I enjoy your watercolor videos a lot, and I have picked up some good advises from you that have help me to improve my experience with this medium that I have started back in 2009. After Oils and Acrylics back in the 70's, it's has been quite a journey in watercolors, what I have learn the hard way is that this medium is not an easy ride, takes time to learn how to control it, but once you have achieve that - WAO, what a medium to just have FUN....
Charlie thank you so much for showing how to paint with water colour and acrylic, and at the moment water colour pencils. I intend to try both and have been rather confused between the two. I obviously have to watch more of your videos for more expertise. Thank you. Jane
I’ve had these watercolor pencils for ages, but wasn’t entirely sure how to use them! Now I know! Wonderful timing, as a friend and I are driving to Lake Michigan to paint tomorrow . It will be very convenient to use my watercolor pencils to make some lovely en plain aire art! I can’t wait to try this! Thank you, once again for a timely and educational video. 🇺🇸
What a treat to see a watercolor pencil demo. I already have some nice w/c pencils so, hey, you've inspired me! Have you ever rubbed your pencils with sandpaper over some wet paper for granulating results? I love that effect and use it for shading or for instance, the skin of a lemon. Shirley Trevana used that technique.
You are such a delightful and genuine, talented Man, and when you clean/dry the pencil in your shirt... I do the same 😂. And I love the patches around that makes it real. Your sketch book is amazing, wowastic!! I am no artist, I do watercolour as a hobby and always learning. I usually lift off pigments from the pencils, my favourite are watercolour brush pens lately but literally everything with water media. Thank you for the amazing video and sharing it all!
Another brilliant demonstration. Have just started to use Water Coluored pencils this Year. Your teaching techniques are I could watch over and over again. Keep up with more Videos please.
Thank you so much for this. I am 73 and decided that I want to learn how to watercolor and use watercolor pencils but after watching many videos on youtube for both mediums I just wasn't clear which way to go to learn what exactly. This is too perfect for words! I can't wait to make a sketch (never have in my life or even a doodle) and get started. I liked and sub'd your channel. Tfs
Thanks for that Charles, I've been using/practicing with watercolour pencils since I bought a set, sorry 72, at patchings last year and am quite hooked. Some great tips for me to work on. X
I really appreciate this video you shared. Your thorough explanation coupled with the demonstration cleared the how and the why of doing watercolor this way. It is energizing for me. I would love to see those books of sketches you created in a few video's dedicated to them. What I did see was inspiring and I want to do my own. It would be helpful if the books were laid flat on a flat surface so the camera will reveal your talent. Well lit, pages being still communicates your works in a better way. Thank you so much for showing and teaching all of us.
Wow you are so talented! I find your art very inspiring and I might work towards emulating some of your style. Just beautiful! And ill get watercolour pencils obviously ❤
Exactly the information I was searching for on the use of watercolor pencil in a more painterly way. I especially like your nonfussy approach with these pencils. I just took a knife to my watercolor pencils and your video sold me two of your books. LOL!
Hiya Charles, thanks very much for the video. The demo' itself makes a lovely painting on its own and the vignette effect is really gorgeous. Take care.x
I have been loving your vids Charles.. I am a watercolourist from New Zealand and sucking up your wisdom thank you very much for sharing your skills with us xx
Your teaching style that's so calm, skilled and "it's that easy" felt Bob Ross like, super relaxing and enjoyable, and so inspirational and educational. :)
I enjoyed your sketchbook; especially Norfolk, where I’ve lived for for 40 years. You captured it’s essence superbly. As I’m a beginner, I copy your watercolours and it feels good to bring a painting to life, albeit with your expert tutorials. I just love watching you create. Thankyou for all your videos Regards Richard.😊
Thank you for this tutorials, its a refreshing to the soul to make a wonderful artwork, I was just starting with watercolor pencils and watching your tutorials makes me want to create more in a very relaxing way. God bless you ☺️
Gracias ! Me encantó, siempre le tuve “miedo” a la acuarela, tú lo haces ver fácil! Tus libros de dibujos muy lindos, ojalá un día pueda hacer uno igual. Saludos
I have tried to paint 🤔 that all would be well if I did my own thing. How wrong was I! I am concentrating on copying your watercolour paintings, and there seems to be an improvement thank goodness! I am a classical muscian, but this has opened up a new and refreshing world. I think you are a brilliant painter, and, if I achieve just a little of your skill, I should be content. Cheers. Richard.
Fascinating to see your working approach. Thank you very much for letting us share your techniques and experience. We are lucky to be able to learn these tips from a good teacher with a generous style.
That was so relaxing to watch. I usually do realism work but I have just bought some watercolour pencils as I want to totally try something new. Looking forward to the learning. Thanks Charles
This was so fun to watch you make pencils come to life with water. Amazing simply amazing. Love watching you and learning for all the great tips you share.
O man , am I stoked. My watercolour pencils arrived today, so tonight I thought I'd look for wc pencil how to's on youtube. Charles yours was the first one I found and you have totally inspired me. Earlier today I was thinking how do I do this, now ...I can do this. Thank you so much. Stay safe.
So pleased to find your video!!! I have watercolor pencils, but do not know how to use them .. thank you for sharing your talent. Your drawings are beautiful... You are a great teacher. Many thanks.
Wow, your sketchbook is really amazing, its full of interesting memories.
Thank you very much.
Neuroscience research shows that handwriting study notes improves memory recall more than typing your notes in class. I like your point that you will remember so much more when you sketch what you see on location instead of (just) pressing a button. As a watercolorist, I tried to create pocket kits with some success, but it was still a balancing act, sitting on a rock above a river etc. Sketching is also something I enjoy, but I do crave color.
