    I recently got a Pentel Aquash water brush and I love it so much! I definitely get more control with my regular brushes, but not having to worry about spilled water jars means I can paint basically anywhere, including the couch and my bed. I mostly use it with my sketchbook because, yeah, anything larger (requiring lots of water water) would be a chore to paint.

    Another Pro for water brushes: right now I have a really small workspace and cannot fit two jars of waters along with my palette and sketchbook.A water brush solves that, and I totally wasn't influenced by the fact that my PC is right next to me and I don´t want to accidentally spill water everywhere ( _cough_ ) .

  • @fangchick93
    @fangchick93 2 роки тому +1

    I like the waterbrush for when I feel lazy and don't want to deal with jars. I use a spray bottle to get the paper wet for wet on wet techniques and washes.

    i love love love your tutorials. I have just started watercolor and i use youtube a lot to learn and your videos are always FOOLPROOF. thank you for making things so beginnner friendly. most painters dont realise that they are automatically doing expert strokes or handling water and paint in certain ways that are second nature to them, but actually us beginners dont know how to do those small things and they make a huge difference!
    I hope you never stop making watercolor content

    I bought an aquabrush to be able to paint on the go. What I discovered is that I use it at home more because I can just sit down and paint right away. Even though getting a couple cups of water doesn't seem like it takes that much time, mentally it does. I am a working mom of three kids, so sometimes those few seconds/minutes saved makes all the difference. Thanks for a great video!

    I use my water brushes a lot. Sometimes, I have to squeeze the barrel really hard to get water to come out. But, they do work for how I paint. I do recommend using a regular brush if painting on a larger sheet of paper. Water brushes are great for little paintings.
