Watercolor Basics {video}

First off I have to say “Thank You!” To all of the folks who purchase my first ever painting kit! I am so honored that you will allow me to teach you. I have been busy today designing another beginner painting packet that I hope you will enjoy: Learn To Paint Pussy Willows, isn’t it so springy? Well, it’s what spring looks like here in Maine, brown, gray and white:

I decided to make a video explaining the basic watercolor supplies and a few basic techniques. I’m sorry it is so long, when I looked at the clock during filming I nearly fell over, it is almost a half an hour…as my husband would say, watching it take a commitment LOL! So you might want to grab a beverage and get comfy 😛

Here is the basic supply list I mentioned in the video, you can print it out and take it to the store with you.

I still have the Introductory special on the Learn to Paint Birch Trees project going on ($1) so if you are curious about this series of lessons you can try for a buck, not much of a risk if you ask me 🙂

Thanks for stopping by and til next time happy crafting!

  1. It’s not really a problem that the video is long. I enjoyed watching it. And I think that it’s better that you took your time explaining and demonstrating your skill. It makes it easier and better for your viewers/readers to understand and appreciate art.

  2. Hi Lindsay. Because of your wonderful tutorials, I have been doing more and more painting with watercolors. I really want to get a set of Inktense Watercolor pencils. I saw a set with 3.4mm cores and a set with 4mm cores. The pencils with 3.4mm cores are considerably lower priced. I’m wondering which set I should go with. Thank you so much for everything you do. You have been such an inspiration to me.
