I love how, unlike most watercolor teachers, you don't only show off how talented you are, or how expensive your materials are! You focus on the important parts of teaching!
Yeah............... whatever......................... and (not to be rude) improve your spelling( I said that after you spelled the word after bad) anyway................... TOODLES ( that means bye ;)
I don't usually leave comments and this is a fairly old video but i just had to with this. I spent so much time browsing for a tutorial on an easy enough design and i came across this. I'm a beginner and this seemed impossible to do but i watched it the whole way through and it seemed somewhat achievable.. half way through i looked at my own painting and couldn't believe i had done that... thank you so much for the thorough detail and easy to follow instructions. If I can do it, so can anyone else!! super pleased and so was my dad :) Thank you so much, keep up the good work!!
Thanks for leaving your comment! I really try to break down the steps, but I never know how well others can follow them. I am so happy you had success with this:)
I love love love how you tell us everything you're doing and how you make decisions to lighten or darken. Especially when you tell us what you're doing with the brushes with every move. There are good instructors on youtube that, unfortunately, don't say they dried off the brush or put more pigment in the water, or cleared the brush off between steps. Thank you so much.
I've been watching many waterpainting tutorials...but its the very first time i felt like....i am actually attending an art class...best teacher ever !!!
Ahh Mr Otter Where for art thou? I LOVE your instruction!!! The drawings are so do-able and the painting so easy to follow for a beginner. I've done 5 of the flower paintings and I've been happy with the results. Out of the dozens of videos I've tried to follow, you are my favorite! Come back Mr Otter. Come back!!!
I owe my journey into the fascinating world of watercolours to this lily by Otter studio as this painting motivated me to try and turned out well to give me confidence. thank you so much
beautiful! I am taking a class on painting lilies in watercolour and your tutorial is amazing. I struggle to keep up after having a concussion and I can pause your tutorial to take things slower but I cannot pause the teacher in my class. The class is six weeks and thanks to you I drew a lily ahead of class for today. Thanks for your awesome lesson.
I so enjoyed and love these types of videos. I can't wait to try it on my own. It really helps when you sketch it out with such detail. Thanks so much.
I love watercolors! I'm a beginner and actually started out with Bible journaling which led me into mixed media (which I still really love). But i just love the look of flowers and nature in general in watercolors. I'm teaching myself with tutorials, some online classes and tons of books. Your videos are great for explaining how to do techniques and also how to fix things if you make a little mistake. I've learned the different types of watercolor from you too. Thank you so much and I will continue to watch and I've already subscribed.
I am the type of person to look at all of these videos and fail at them. I was expecting the same with this one. But it turned out so wonderful. I extremely love this channel!
You're an excellent teacher/ instructor! I like the way you went through it step by step. You made it look so easy. I sketched the lily first & found that part to be the hardest...& I draw. Go figure! Thank you so much!!
I made a Google/UA-cam account just to tell you I absolutely LOVE this tutorial! I wish there was a way I could attach a picture to show you my lily flower. Really great, going to keep watching your tutorials
i cant help but apprecaite how u teach us step by step on painting using a watercolor.. ive been watching several watercolor tutorials but they aint nothing on your videos! I so so so loved them and thaaank u for going detailed
I've just recently started painting and have been trying my hand at acrylic and watercolor so I came to YT for beginner tutorials and yours popped up. You explain it so well and break it down into easy steps so I keep coming back for more. Even this one looked too pretty and complicated, but you made the steps so easy to follow. So far, I made this one, the monocolor landscape, the palm trees, the other lilly, so thanks for posting these. They've been incredibly helpful. =)
I'm rolling with laughter! ALL of my paintings turn out like asparagus or rocks. I should try painting asparagus or rocks and I might end up with a masterpiece.
This is a wonderful tutorial that I’m going to follow this weekend! I love the art of watercoloring but I’m starting as a true beginner! I’ve purchased many supplies and now I’ve found a teacher! Thank you!
It's really hard to try to explain a person how to use water colours but you've done a great job. That coming down with a clean brush technique was really helpful. Thank you for sharing ^-^
Super tutorial~!~ Love the waterlily. Can't grow them especially well in the space available for them. But, most of all, I appreciate having an instructor who explains the strokes, the rationale for each piece as the painting develops. Thank You!
I like how you use Prang 8-colors in your tutorial, as it is the only watercolor I have and can afford. It is also the most readily available in the Philippines. Please do more tutorials using it. I learned a lot from you. Thank you.
fantastic!!!!!!!!!!!! I absolutely love your teaching you say all your doing ...which for a newbie like me I need this it helps my confidence ,,,,love you girls
Great tutorial! I've been wondering which paint style I should start with since I just started doing some sketches of things around the house and I feel inspired to pursue watercolors! This video helped me decide to to learn water colors because I just love how smooth and beautiful they always turn out.
Thank you! That was a really interesting and educational video. I am just getting started with water colour, with pencils just now, but as soon as I can, I am going to get some proper water colour paints. I loved this Lilly and I think that is the first thing I am going to try when I get my paints :-)
Thank you so much for such a detailed tutorial. Im so happy i found your channel, your work is beautiful. I followed all the steps you presented and my water lilly turned out nicely and I am pleasantly surprised. I'm a beginner and it was the first time i try watercolors. I must say i'm inlove with watercolors. Thanks again.
I'm an intermediate at watercolor, I have the same watercolors as you so matching the colors will be a piece of cake, I love that I can follow a lot of your tutorials because we have the same watercolors. I the the brand prang was a very poor quality watercolor, but in my surprise even professionals use it like you.
I loved this tutorial, I actually am proud, mines looked similar to your painting. I wished you haven't sped up the video because it was hard to follow where you shaded, but in the end it looked awesome. I'm self teaching myself how to watercolor, I've been doing it for almost 2 months, now I am a little higher than intermediate.
thank you for this tutorial - really enjoyed it. I am a beginner and have been winging it and getting frustrated - but you've really helped me understand the medium and techniques
wow! You almost make me feel that I can paint something that someone would recognize. I am going to try it. I usually do soft abstracts since I can't even draw stick figures. :)
I wish I came across your video before I did my water lilly painting (just yesterday) :)) I'm kinda happy with the result overall but I had a hard time to create the soft stripe texture on its petals. I end up using a small round brush to make those, and of course that leaves a lot of hard edges :( By the way, I think it'd be more lively if you make the water with blue and green mixture ;)
I'm watercolor painting a lily onto a Chinese lantern and I stumbled upon this video looking for technique and I noticed we have the exact same water color paints! 😂
I love how, unlike most watercolor teachers, you don't only show off how talented you are, or how expensive your materials are! You focus on the important parts of teaching!
Yes S's!
EXCUUUSE ME, you are not talented esther leclaire :)
Yeah............... whatever......................... and (not to be rude) improve your spelling( I said that after you spelled the word after bad) anyway................... TOODLES ( that means bye ;)
Wow what a jerk
Nothing she's jealous that she can't draw so she decides to be a dirt bag to everyone

hi,im same as you.except its for my mum
I love love love how you tell us everything you're doing and how you make decisions to lighten or darken. Especially when you tell us what you're doing with the brushes with every move. There are good instructors on youtube that, unfortunately, don't say they dried off the brush or put more pigment in the water, or cleared the brush off between steps. Thank you so much.
You are very welcome Valerie:) Love your last name, love Georgia O' Keeffe:)
Please do more I love the way you teach and you actually use supplies regular poor people have , I don't have money for real fancy watercolor
that's the same set of cheap paints I got to begin with, lol
I've been watching many waterpainting tutorials...but its the very first time i felt like....i am actually attending an art class...best teacher ever !!!
Thank you!
Ahh Mr Otter
Where for art thou? I LOVE your instruction!!! The drawings are so do-able and the painting so easy to follow for a beginner. I've done 5 of the flower paintings and I've been happy with the results. Out of the dozens of videos I've tried to follow, you are my favorite! Come back Mr Otter. Come back!!!
I love that you don’t push beginners to purchase artist grade paints. You can learn to paint with inexpensive materials.
I owe my journey into the fascinating world of watercolours to this lily by Otter studio as this painting motivated me to try and turned out well to give me confidence. thank you so much
I am honored!! You are very welcome
