At first I thought the paper was pulling, then I realised you'd used salt 😄 I love how the branches turned out. And your cardinal is very cute and stately at the same time! 🥰

@@BeginnersMind-ArtMind thanks, I'm not really. My daughter is though, so that's great. She even felt up to going on a walk with my husband and the dog (keeping far away from others). Being cooped up inside for 4 days is especially difficult for a busy 6 year old, so I'm glad she was able to do that. Now she's off doing quiet stuff in her room. 😊 And I'm on the couch catching up on KZitem and cuddling my dog. How are your doggies doing? And how is the one living somewhere else? Is he/she better being away from the mold? 🤗🤗

@@willemijnkamerling4011 So glad to hear that your daughter is doing better but sorry that you’re still feeling poorly. It’s good she was able to get out and get some fresh air and exercise.Sending you lots of wishes for a speedy recovery. One of our dogs is sick and has an appointment on January 11 to see the vet. Posey, the dog that moved out of the house is completely well again.

I have many, many brands of watercolors and I have to say that I almost never use Schmincke. First because they are very expensive (I'm always afraid of wasting them) and the tiny pans (they really do look smaller than the competition) and they melt so fast. I figure when I get good, I'll use them. Right now my favorites are Sennelier, Mission Gold (Pure pigment), Roman Szmal and Daniel Smith which are expensive but don't melt as fast. I like the Canson XL multimedia paper which surprisingly works for me and the Fabriano Ultra White Paper. The Arches is interesting but I find that the color often becomes dull on it.

Hi Linda, beautiful painting! I'm late to the party to offer a suggestion, but here goes. Dr. PH Martens Bleed Proof White is wonderful for adding splatters of snow, or anything you need in white. It's similar to gouache, comes in a small jar. It's thick, but you can add a little water to it and it thins out well. A tiny jar will last years!!
@BeginnersMind-ArtMind

Thanks for watching and commenting. It does last forever, I think my bottle of Dr Martins Bleed Proof white is 10 years old! I rarely use it though because it is so bright white. I tend to prefer the slightly translucent effect I get with the M. Graham white gouache.

I have found that pulp paper lifts easily and is very difficult to layer when you want to glaze. I painted a beautiful deer on strathmore 25% cotton paper and had problems with glazing and the paint lifting underneath. I decided then that I would only use cotton paper. I gave all of my pulp watercolor away to my grandkids and now just use 100% cotton. I feel that when I paint I need ease of use and comfort ~ not frustration. I may have felt different before I became so ill but now I want the best and easiest of supplies. For practice, swatches, and just easy doodle painting stuff I use bee watercolor paper which is less expensive. Your painting is beautiful! I’m getting ready to paint a beautiful bluebird my husband saw in our yard. I’ve decided to use my schmincke paint.

Thanks for watching and sharing. I can totally understand your experience with papers, especially since you’re using watercolor.. Interestingly I have found that the more disabling my illness gets the more I enjoy sticking to painting with gouache in cheap sketchbooks like the Art Creations sketchbook. We artists are so diverse and are drawn to such different ways of painting and different materials. Enjoy your painting time today. 🖌🎨💕

This painting turned out stunning. I would have struggled with these colors as well, but these kinds of "challenges" really make an artist grow, in my opinion. I'll gladly tell you about my favorite watercolor paper: Saunders Waterford. I use cold press and the rough version, but it's not as rough as Arches for example. It truly has the most beautiful texture out of all the papers I've tried. The drying shift seems quite soft to me and watercolors stay beautifully vibrant on it. Writing this comment has made me want to order some more of the paper right now because I'm afraid they'll ever stop producing it.. silly, I know

Thanks so much for your lovely supportive and comment! Now that you bring it to mind I think I actually have some Saunders stashed away in my studio. I had moved away from watercolors for a long time and now that I am turning back to them I’ll have to check my paper stash to see exactly what I have. If I don’t have any your description of it’s nature certainly has me wanting to try some out. Thanks for sharing that information! 🤗

I love your Swatching! I'm a Patron of Natasha Newton's and we have a great time on her Patreon. What kind of brushes do you have? I was admiring your collection in the canvas roll. I need better brushes but I like real fur. I've got a set of 5 Kolinsky Tajmyr Escoda brushes that are lovely! Your cardinal is beautiful! I can see you make gorgeous scarves and I love your painting style. How are you and your husband doing? Did you say your tiny house won't have plumbing? Sorry if I heard wrong. I don't want to upset you. You and Don are lovely kind people, I hate to see all the misfortune you've been through. I love watching your videos, and I wait in anticipation for them. I hope you and Don have a peaceful Christmas and New Year. Take care Linda! My favourite paper is Arches, it's all I use and I make silver ink on black paper too. I like to work in various media.

Thanks for sharing your favorite paper and brushes and your comment. It’s fun hearing what other artists use. I think I went over the brushes I used in the video, But I’ve been so brain fogged lately it is possible I edited that part out lol? I have started sorting through my brushes as I lighten up my studio in preparation for us moving into a smaller space. I should pick out the ones that I really love and then make a video showing those at some point. I think most of my brushes are synthetic. Don and I are still struggling with health issues. Thanks for asking. I‘m no longer doing Emma Carlisle‘s Patreon so I briefly thought I might try Natasha‘s for a short period. She tempts me too much to buy new art supplies lol. Wishing you a happy Holiday and a joyous New Year.

You can fit a third row Schmincke in the palette If you pull out one or both of the silver rivets that holds the current Watercolor pants in place and then put magnets or blue tack on the bottom, just stop them from moving around. I saw another art KZitemr do it. I think it was Miranda. And it’s awesome and it puts so much.more room into one’s palette that is Otherwise wasted space
