Experimenting colors with water

What I love about this course is mixing colors with water ,however while I was trying to dry my watercolor painting ,I just noticed that I added to much water on my watercolor mixture,so I so I went back and re watch one video,when she explained to us. If it has too much water on my pigment , to remove extra water from my paint brush. Then let it dry ,so I was using my new hot air dryer.

Great Explanations

Shelby gave helpful overviews of the supplies needed and great explanations of when it was better to buy a higher grade of materials versus when student grade would do for beginners. I really needed the positive “you can do it!” statements at the end. I’m excited to dig in!

Good overview of supplies needed

Excellent overview of the supplies needed. I’ve watched many supply videos and truly appreciate that you didn’t jump into the most expensive items right off. The shell shock of seeing prices on high quality supplies can deter many people, but you gave great alternative ideas and, although you covered many items that were optional, you didn’t push their purchase right off.

So clear and informative

I loved this course. Even though I wouldn’t consider myself a beginner, I decided to listen to Shelby and start at the beginning. I am happy I did. Shelby gave insight into some supplies that I didn’t actually know or consider. It was also so clear and focused in on exactly what I needed to know. Fabulous!
