Regular colored pencils (ones that are not water soluble) also make a great combination with watercolor. Dried watercolor paint makes a GREAT base for them. The dried paint is a little bit grippy and takes to the pencil perfectly. So if anyone wants to use their pencils like she did in this video (NOT activating with water) and you have regular colored pencils and not watercolor pencils, that's totally fine. No need to buy watercolor pencils if you only plan on using them dry.

That bird is so cute. I just love how you do your feathers. I'm going to practice so I can surprise my husband with an Eagle. Here are some tips on watercolor pencils I've picked up here and there. If you use a stiffer brush it will reduce the watercolor pencil line weight. I use my Golden Taklon or synthetic sable brushes. The Royal Langnickle Gold Taklon or Princeton Velvet Touch Collection works well. Problem is layering because those brushes will scrape off bottom layers. For me, the best way to use watercolor pencils is in a certain layering process. First a layer of staining watercolors. Second layer, watercolor pencils activated with water. Third or final touches of watercolor pencils not activated with water. Or like you mentioned in my travel art journal. Love drawing or sketching watercolor artwork with them. One more thing, you can get some cool calligraphy effects by writing the letters then using the waterbrush to fade out the color. Mostly, use them for fine details, shadows and sometimes under drawings. Thanks for sharing your beautiful painting.

Wow so many cool birds!!! My neighborhood is surrounded by woods and I have bird feeders along with bird houses. I've only lived here for a year (South Carolina, USA) and moved here from central Florida. The birds here aren't as exotic of course as where you live but I get mostly song birds which I love. Since last Spring I have seen Cardinals, Wrens, (lots of wrens), Pine Warblers, Titmouse, Chickadee, Morning Dove, Goldfinch, Indigo Bunting, Grackles, lots of Ruby-Throated Hummingbirds and only once I saw a Downy Woodpecker. For several months I have had a pair of Bluebirds nesting in one of the birdhouses. The female can't make up her mind which house she wants to stay in. She goes back and forth between two of my birdhouses. I love them all though and am always happy to see them. You are lucky to have all those exotic, gorgeous birds in your area.

Thank you so much for sharing your awesome talent and totally engaging personality 🥰. Your videos are my new obsession. I took a class with Wisconsin watercolor artist Karlyn Holman . We learned to use watercolor pencils as a way to add texture to our paintings by rubbing the pigment against a piece of sandpaper above the still damp paper. This allows the pigment to fall and spread organically thereby creating additional interest and texture.

Enjoy the journey, and cherish yourself as an artist each step of the way. Your painting will improve with each painting you do, and you'll naturally get better. But the art you do today is a reflection of who you are and what you know right now, and it has value for that reason. I have work I did years ago that disappointed me at that time, but I look at it now and like it. You're probably better than you realize. :)

Beautiful job, as always! To use watercolor pencil on a palette, I would advise against doing so on paper. It's wasteful, and who knows what sizing rubs off the paper and gets in the paint. Instead, you can use a piece of white plastic which you can rough up with sandpaper for grip. Also, to activate the rubbed pigments on the palette, I use a 100:1 mixture of gum arabic in distilled water. This makes the pencil pigments more compatible with my regular watercolors. I keep this magic potion in a 100 ml dropper bottle; makes mixing a cinch.
