Thanks, I will probably do something like that in the future. For now, this video discusses some essential compositional elements and ideas: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/b8ybobac3rSaj2Q.html

Hey, Marco, could you explain what watercolors​ do u use

Marco Bucci i tried it! Have Send you a dm on insta! Big thanks to you!!

Winsor & Newton, mostly. A few other brands in there. My advice is to buy professional-grade stuff, not student-grade.

You don’t seem to wait for each area to dry, how do you not get nasty cauliflowers? Or is it just the editing

Thanks - tons of fun to experiment with it!

same feelings here, I was like "woooaahh!, that's nice" :)

That is the first thing I was going to mention too. Really cool.

D'Angelo Wallace hey man! Ikr

Holy shit it’s Wallace-senpai

Great to hear - thanks, Rose!

My folks bought me a little backpack with an integrated stool for my plein air shenanigans which is brilliant although it looks like I also need a cool hat.

Thanks! That's another reason I really like watercolour: you have to kind of anticipate the next steps. Set things up at the start for later payoff. Keeps you on your toes.

Marco Bucci bit late coming back to this, but would you reccomend watercolor to beginig painters? I have a watercolor set already, but im tempted to get a travel gouache set instead so I dont have to work around watercolors properties while im rrying to make quick paintings.

Yeah, I think if you're just starting out, watercolor probably isn't the best medium to be using. Its high demands might distract you from the practice of solid fundamentals, which is where you want to focus if you're a beginning painter. Gouache is generally a better medium for control, and a good choice for beginners. That being said, I don't think you should outright avoid using watercolor either. Give it a shot every now and then, and get used to how different mediums react. Also, the nice thing about gouache is that you can try transparent approaches with it (like watercolor) or more opaque approaches (like acrylic & oil). Good luck!

Marco Bucci thanks for the quick response. Ive probably got enough room to just get a small set of gouache and bring it with my watercolor set to give myself the option to do a bit of both. In that case, do you know if I would need to match the brands, as in windsor and newton watercolor to windsor and newton gouache? I only started painting earlier this year, but I was suprised to find I enjoy it more than drawing, so itll be nice to have a good portable setup to get some practice in on the go.

I'm happy about that, as I had to develop some new skills to pull that off visually :) Thanks!

Thanks a lot!

Great!
