    Thank you Ellen, I really like your paintings and I really enjoy watching your videos. I always think you make watercolor painting magical. I learned a lot of drawing skills from you, thank you very much. I hope you can understand what I am saying because my English is very poor. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year.

    I'm not sure what it is about it...but I absolutely love bokeh and the way you do it! This was fun to watch and thanks so much for sharing. I tried a very beginner version of a wash of pale blues and some pearl-white/gouache and must practice more but it was fun and I'm not scared to try things due to your motivation and inspiration.

    @jillbooker7970 2 роки тому +1

    Another great tutorial Ellen! Thank you! QUESTION: are you waiting until the paper looses its sheen before you scrape in the birch trees? I’m having trouble figuring out the timing so scraping to get lighter instead of darker results. Merry Christmas 🎄

    • @ellencrimitrent
      @ellencrimitrent  2 роки тому +1

      Yes but even a bit more if it’s still super wet it will go right into crease
