This is a video for watercolor beginners or people that are interested in learning these skills. Here I walk you through the wet in wet, wet in dry, glazing, dragging and charging techniques - all require practise but are really easy techniques to start with.
Give me a shout in the comments if you have any questions about this video, or if you have any suggestions for future videos :)

I love that you demonstrated these techniques on a flower, an actual object. Not just a square or sphere... I am a bloody beginner and seeing these differences is HUGELY helpful 🙏👍

For some reason I can't grasp it enough to apply it unless it's demonstrated with an actual object.

This is a great tutorial … I’m a month in on my water colour journey and this is the best illustration of the different techniques by far … I’ve been searching for my next practise piece and this is it! Thank you so much! 👏👏👏

This may seem silly, but as someone who hasn’t tried to paint with watercolors since I was 14 in art class in school, this was magical. Such a perfect way to easily showcase simple techniques with such lovely results. I bought my first watercolor set in 31 years after watching this. Thank you for encouraging my inner child to play.

THIS!!!! WHY DID NOBODY EXPLAIN ME ANY OF THIS BEFORE??? This is exactly the reason why i think watercoloring is one of the hardest mediums for art 😭

He’s so relaxing to listen to I could watch this man while trying to sleep. Also the fact that he made a mistake with the dragging technique and kept it in the video, showing that there is no such thing as perfection, and that you can always start again.

I’ve been working with watercolor for a few years now, but this demonstration has been the most helpful, truly. Somehow, seeing the same flower done differently really helped to clarify how the various methods could be used to one’s advantage. Thank you for sharing your knowledge…and humor. 😉

Great video, I tried watching other watercolor channels and they just kept preaching about letting the intrinsic beauty take over and that you can't control water color. Obviously it's a hard medium but there are techniques like what you showed that have really helped me understand how to take my painting to the next level. Thanks so much!

This is such good practice: how much water, strokes and patience for it to dry. Charging and glazing are quite a challenge for me. My fave's dragging.

This is exactly what I’ve been looking for! I really appreciate this kind of tutorial, which shows the underlying logic of how to understand what’s possible with watercolour. Plus, it’s *practical.* I know exactly what’s being done and why it is or isn’t working. No hand-waving away details we beginners need to know. Thank you!

edit: 7:22 sorry/not sorry but lmao, your reaction. it’s like you dropped a baby. i would be remiss if i didn’t admit i’ve had many “dropped a baby” reactions over simple mistakes when painting 🤣 i love this so much!! i paint botanicals, and as luck would have it, a sh*t ton of poppies. as a self taught artist, i’ve been doing all these things but never thought of most of them as discrete techniques. this is extremely helpful thank you!

Thank you so much for making this video, I have wanted to practice watercolors so long and all my paints have failed. I blamed myself for many years (I know there are books about it but I find it hard to understand trough just reading text), so it turns out I've not understood the importance of hot & cold pressed papers and importance of different brushes, yet the amount of water needed to reach the wanted result!
