My Aunt, who was an artist/crafter gave me some advice from her instructor; he said your best work is what you throw in the garbage because it's what you have learned from.

Amazing how beautiful a monochrome painting can be. The simplicity of it, combined with that beautiful color and the depth from so many values is calming, yet gorgeous at the same time. Love it! Going to watch again and try it. Thanks for all your great totorials.

Emma, I discovered you at the beginning of my watercolor journey in 2020. This past year I’ve had some health issues so I’ve not been on here. It was so exciting to see your growth, not only in painting, but in confidence. I thoroughly appreciate how you teach and I enjoy watching and listening to your insight. Thank you for what you do.

I know I’m just some stranger on the internet, but…please don’t give up. Your creative, artistic soul has every bit as much right to expression and joy as anyone else’s, and I don’t doubt that you have beauty and creativity to gift to the world. I say this as someone who frequently fights with the urge to give up because I’m not as talented, experienced or knowledgeable as teachers on KZfaq. I believe in you!

This is a great video! You continue to make me want to paint and hopefully someday create something half as beautiful as the pieces you paint. I continue to learn so much from you and enjoy your videos so much. I keep looking at my watercolors and I'm so nervous to start actually putting paint on the paper. For some reason! I don't know what I'm so afraid of, it's silly.

That feeling you get when it comes to water/paint in your brush is artistic intuition and you have developed or were born with good artistic intuition. You make painting look so easy! Emma, I have a problem “dabbing” or wiping my brush off onto a paper towel for fear of “ wasting “ my expensive, precious paint. I know that this fear I have is a culprit for unneeded mistakes and I feel it’s holding me back. Any sage advice from you or your viewers on how to get over this “ fear of product waste” that I have?

Love your videos! Just wanted to tell you how to pronounce the color since I'm a speech pathologist and I can't resist. You said Lapis correctly, but the next word is laz- (like "has"), u- (like "you"), li- (like "lie"). Hope that helps! Your videos really help me as an artist. 💓

As a deaf artist who doesn’t get to speak english much in a mainly french community, it’s a pretty useful comment for me, thanks! I can’t hear how she pronounced it but maybe she pronounced it in french?

So great thanks for this video! I love learning from you. The only thing I will admit that sometimes annoys me is that in using all these incredible products, you sometimes forget that others are painting along with you and don’t have all the resources you do. It would be so helpful to simply add a line about what color you might use if don’t have this very rare, special pigment in your beginners palette. But overall, great experience!

I love this! You are such an excellent instructor!! ❤ I've been learning from you since 2021; I'm definitely past the beginner stage, but this love doing practice like this with you!! I do love watercolor and paint daily; but what is the next step in learning? I feel like I want to paint a pretty floral piece, but I get hung-up on the design and composition. I can come up with limited color palettes and have good watercolor control and can paint florals quit well. But now matter how much I research composition. I feel stuck almost like I'm at the beginning again. It's like a gap in learning I can't figure out. I'm very visual and learn by seeing and watching someone do the thing. Do have any suggestions or can you do more videos on composition and design. I know you have do a few in the past and you target beginners, but I love your teaching style so I would love it from you!

I am a photorealistic animal portraiture artist with pencils. However recently I have expanded my journey into watercolor because I've wanted to do them for so many years. Sadly I only have a very tiny selection of professional colors. My finances just are not there because I'm disabled. I am so wanting a lapis lazuli and I'm wondering if the Michael Harding is worth the cost versus other lapis lazulis? It's something I would have to save up for but it is a color that I think would greatly benefit me for backgrounds in my animal portraits.

Many people have a difficult time pronouncing Lazuli. . It is pronounced la-zu-lee (with accent on the 'la'), but you don't have to say this word. Just say Lapis and everyone knows that it's Lapis Lazuli 😜. However you pronounce it, you paint very well with it and that's all that matters.

How does a beginner know what details to add after it's dry? When watching you, I can definitely see the difference, but is there a checklist for Beginners to know what to look for?
@EmmaLefebvre Ай бұрын
Hmm good question. For the details I like to add is more depth to the centre of flowers. I feel like that is what makes it stand out the most. Then additional shadows and such to other parts of the petals and leaves.
