The Forgotten ART of Art - How to make your watercolor art YOUR OWN

The Forgotten ART of Art - How to make your watercolor art YOUR OWN - Undo the OVERWHELM with TREES!

COLOR your LIFE with PAINT! Fall into Autumn with the best therapy - WATERCOLOR painting to undo the overwhelm. In this tutorial I show you how to start with pure color and allow a vibrant autumnal landscape of fall trees emerge from your brush.
Why do you paint? If you are human you‘re painting to bring something good into the world that wasn't there before, or to make yourself somehow better than you were before. To do this we need to remember how to paint using the ART of Art, instead of the art of creating a PRODUCT! So don‘t compare yourself to others, overwhelming yourself with hundreds of images of other people’s art, before you‘ve even picked up a brush - follow this easy method for getting paint on to paper and creating YOUR OWN painting, something truly yours that didn't already exist before you painted it.

Hi Diane. What a comforting thing you have said! I have started out crafting, sketching and painting (trying out various mediums) and so I am finding myself scrolling for hours through pinterest and youtube, ending up paralysed (doing nothing) because of overwhelm... i then suffer from decision fatigue.. i think I will foĺlow a new strategy from here on- there are two other artists also like you on YT that does mini paintings. I will look through that and decide on doing one that is beautiful to me, rather than trying to master painting all detailed flowers and everything possible under the sun! A mini painting is something that I can finish in one sitting. I am also liking ink and wash a lot! And maybe in my free time i can then practice sketching and have things to paint lateron. But yes, it meant a lot for me to hear that you also find it overwhelming. I loved this tutorial...it is kinda playing around, being curious and see what can happen. I think for now I will stick with you and two other youtubers and let go of the overwhelm! And as you said - making my art my own, finding my own style through experimenting and..letting art find me! Warm regards from South Africa.❤

What you just wrote is exactly what happens to me on Pinterest. I delete them over and over because they tract things I don’t want even if I just peeked at it! I’m finding my art style also and this channel helps me not get overwhelmed and just relax and enjoy the process.

I very quickly get lost on there. And a lot of it is actually very poor art, and then a lot is computer generated art, or Procreate digital art, and some is commercial and intended for business use, and some is very difficult and not helpful, and some is in some way deceitful - it’s all a complete mess of confusion. Which is how my head ends up after half an hour of “research!”

I'm a 73 yr old great grandmother in the US. Just found you on KZfaq about 6 months ago. I LOVE all your videos and have watched them over and over. I'm not an artist by any means but have loved watercolor painting for years now. I found myself fussing over my paintings way too much and even putting my paints away for a while. You've taught me soooo much and I've started to loosen up! Now, painting is fun again. Love to hear your stories about your art but also your family and traveling. Love hearing the swishing of your brush in the water jar, that's the sound of a true artist. Also love your wit. Keep it up Diane 😊

Love this, Diane!! While I enjoy some doodling and line work, I enjoy nature painting more. YES, I think today's society suffers from information overload in so many areas of life. I find that if I have an idea, I should just go with it and not do any "research," which usually results in doubt of my idea or changes that end up as copying. End result makes the idea no longer "mine." This applies to not just art, but I have caught myself doing it when decorating my home, choosing new linens, etc.

What a gorgeous bright autumnal painting Diane and your whole process oozed relaxation and zen. I stopped myself from looking at other pictures on Pintrest when going to do a painting for this reason I became so overwhelmed that I thought my idea wasn’t good enough and ended up with a headache and not painting at all. I am now at present happy following your tutorials Diane and sometimes putting my own spin on it by doing another one. This at the moment is keeping me happy and enjoying my painting as I recover from meningitis. You are an awesome artist Diane and really do inspire me to put paint to paper as you always turn your paintings into beautiful paintings that would look great hanging on a wall or in a frame on your sideboard. Thankyou for your inspiration and daily dose of awesomeness. I love your fur babies too ❤. Xx🥰🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

Hello Diane, nice to see your video. Thank you very much. I finally gave the money to the tree organization, but I donated to them directly because (1) I did not want to "save" my credit card with google and (2) I wanted to make it a monthly donation. Thank you very much for educating me about it. I also bought the "cork" version of Viviva paints, on your earlier recommendation. I haven't tried them out yet, but the people at the company are very sweet. I love dealing with small, friendly companies. I loved all of the "fall" paintings you created. And, of course, the Arthur, Zen and Lottie, what a treat! Hope you are having a good day. Hugs, Eve

I started telling myself last Fall, "You need to learn to love 'Fall' more!" I hate the Fall season - particularly the month of Semptember. My mother had the habit of moving A LOT. Which resulted in me being in 9 different schools from kindergarten to my senior year. My senior year was the only year I attended the school I graduated from. My point is that I probably need to try and paint a few more Fall watercolors this Fall - particularly Semtember. Thank you again, Diane, for doing this. I am a clad, hard-scale Spring person! Great buy suggestion! ❤❤❤

Beautiful painting. I would love to see more watercolour youtubers painting from life and how to set up still life and lighting and stuff. When I paint from a photo, I can't find the emotional attachment to help me care enough about the subject to really see it. But if it's the teapot Kens sister gave me from Tokyo, and a funny story about that mug, I already feel invested. But setting up the objects and drafting the sketch is hard to figure out. So, I haven't enjoyed scrolling through photos looking for something to paint. It seems to take time away from painting.

Great tutorial, Diane! It was truly fascinating to me to follow your initial ‘blobs’ of apparently random placement yet watch as the scene jumped into focus. Seeing it matted and framed at the end was magical! Thank you! I agree with you on image overload from every aspect of life; almost pinpoints of distraction instead of focusing on appreciating the simple joy of identifying what brings calmness, tranquility, and a sense of belonging. Enjoyed today’s episode 😉 Thanks!

I was drawn to your channel because of your whimsical animals. I adore the sheep and birds. I'm not into photorealistic art though I admire the talent. About as real as I get is Paul Clark's style. Your painting turned out lovely. You did a great job with that type of paint. I've had a large set of Peerless sheets for about 20 years. I sometimes use them for craft type projects. I find dye based paints a little less pleasing to work with and then there's the light fast issue. Boy, do they fade quickly. My advice for you is to just do you! Do the art you enjoy and try not to be overly influenced by what others are doing on KZfaq. Art is a passion endeavor and when it becomes just a job I think it is reflected in the output. Hope all is well with you and Tamsin.

Oh Ms. Diane, this is AMAZING!! I love your work, your videos, your instruction. I so enjoyed seeing those amazing dragonflies in your sketchbook. Thank you for being you and thank you for showing us how amazing these colors can be together. I'm not usually a warm color girl, but after seeing this and how beautiful they can be when put together effectively, I want to give this a go. ❤️🌹❤️

Very nice autumnal piece. I really like the Vivia ink blue color you used for the sky.

Love the intensity of these colors. There is just so much out there for us to view, but if you can just appreciate the art and not compare it to others, that is better. This is my opinion of course. I enjoy all of your work, and I think as long as you continue to love what you do, it will come across in a favorable way. Thank you for sharing your perspective and you gift.
