I learnt more about shadowing from this video than from 2 yrs of studies. Thank you so much.

Best grisaille demo I've seen. I always revisit this tutorial when using this method in a painting.

Love your channel. I was ready to throw my paint box across the room until I found your channel!

Fantastic demo and tutorial thanks!

Thank you, and I subscribed! You provided more help in minutes than hours of watching people paint even though I love that too! I would love to see more instructional videos like this and painting as your brilliant and super easy to understand and follow.

I was so happy that Steve from "The Mind of Watercolor", along with his friend Marty, introduced you in his livestream last night. I thoroughly enjoyed it, and wanted to visit your channel today! This video alone has so very much information in it. Thanks so much for sharing your knowledge with all of us! Take Care!

You explain and demonstrate so thoroughly. Thank you for making these great videos.

Great job! Loved the way you taught this information!

I am learning everything I can about values and underpaintings right now, (before now, it was always just called "shading, lol) and I have done two of these examples without foreknowledge. I am a beginning artist and this video is informative and to e, super fun. I love the history, and the experimentation as well. Thanks so much. I watch you all t he time and can appreciate your hard work and knowledge.

Excellent demo! thank-you so much !

I think you just changed my life!

That was a phenomenal demonstration. Thank you for sharing!

Great job showing and explaining at the same time! Thank you! Keep up the good work!

Loved this lesson. Thank you!

Wow....that's a lot of lesson in such a short video. Thanks!

Fantastic, thanks so much for sharing these techniques.

Thanks for sharing. I've used this method for my watercolor baby portraits and flowers for years but forgot what it was called. Thanks again.

Wow!! You're an absolute genius !! Thanks very much ❤❤❤

Thank you very much for taking the time to post these videos :) I was going to ask if I could use my own mixed gray for the grisaille in watercolors, but my question was answered in this wonderful lesson. Thanks again, and happy painting!

I have just come across your videos and I have to say thank you for your fabulous, informative instructions. You are an amazing instructor! I have subscribed!

Great job on the explanation of the different types of under painting techniques! It was an extremely helpful to see the comparison among them. I wish I had found this video sooner!

Thank you so much for this tutorial. Very helpful, and well done!

This has been very informative, Thanks Hajra!

Awesome. Thank you.

This is a wonderful demonstration, thank you. Very informative!

Enjoyed this! Learned something new!

Very informative demo ,thanks for sharing.

so much great information! thankyou so much 🤗

Thanks a lot for this great video!

This explained exactly what I was looking for. It looks like something I'd like to learn more about since I'm learning watercolor painting but I sure like the gouache painting since I now see what you can do with it. Thanks for sharing this Hajra! Inspiring lady you are.... ~ Regards, Karla

Excellently informative and helpful!

Saw you on the live broadcast with Marty & Steve .... have just subscribed to your channel and will make use of it again and again. Thank you for explaining all the techniques, effects etc etc so clearly ... you will become one of my favourite reference 'books' :)

Besides being very instructional, and the fact that I learned a lot from this, I find your voice very soothing :D it had been a tough day before this, thank you!

Thank you very much for this video.

This is very helpful Hajra, thank you so much. 💞💫

Thank you!

I'm fairly new to watercolor and I found this extremely helpful. I've seen other artists use this method, but they never explained the why or the how. I think they may have done it without knowing there was a name for the technique and they weren't sure how to explain it. My favorites are the complementary color, the watercolor grisaille, the shadow mix, and ink grisaille.

Awesome video! So informative!

this video was amazingly informative and awesome. subscribing because i love the scientific method approach you take to showing us variants and contrasts between different techniques. you are awesome! I thought i was proficient in paints but i am learning alot from you :)

Thank you thank you thank you so much I cannot thank you enough and God bless I never understood or actually got shadowing with painting and I think it finally clicked for me no I love you so much for this LOL!!

This is interesting I would like to learn more about underpainting. I'll check out your other videos.

Great teaching!

Do this with my digi's, usually never with traditional paints. I like how you can handle value and color completely differently at different times, it helps me from gettin mixed up of overwhelmed. Especially with really complex compositions.

Well with the leafs... The one with the yellow underpainting looks more realistic but I prefer the brunaille one as the brown got a redish tint which is the complementary of green... But I really really learn something and I will think about it, try it, and... Maybe trying to use different colors on underpainting but not by mixing them to a grey. And for a skin tone I would rather use a blue, green-blue, purple undertone as it's... Complementary. I'm biased my brain loves complementary even when it's not realistic (as with the leaf) or blended. Just... Complementary. The more they appear the more I like it (on your flower the green seems a little weak no compared to the red no ?). But well... A mind blowing technique I have to admit... All the open doors now !

Thank you for sharing this. I just learned about grisaille and was wondering if it could be used in watercolor.

wow,love 't,♡

Thank you for sharing your knowledge, this is fascinating, I painted right along with you but I think I'm using to much water.

Thank you very much for your tutorial, very useful info. Could you consider making some videos about under-painting for painting skin?

I can't figure out what medium to use for grisailes. When I finally settle in, should I use alcohol wash?

I want to color with oil

I love how synthetic and professional your videos are! Thank you for sharing! May I ask a bit of advice? I want to make a gouache painting of a green skin monster lit just by a warm light, like a lantern; what kind of grisaille would you suggest? Thabk you for your time (:

Thank you, this was a really great video (I was searching for information on colored pencil glazing and this came up, yay!) Do you recall if you were using watercolor from a watercolor pencil or actual watercolor paint from a tube or pan for the top layer for your final glazing? Thank you so much!

Hi Hajra, could I use a waterproof black ink beneath watercolours? Thanks for the video. :)

I have a question about your grisaille mix: do you use a gray watercolor like payne's grey, or do you mix your grey using primary colors?

So for a gouache painting I would want to do an ink grisaille?

I just subscribed 🌹💜🌹💜🌹🤑🌹🤑🌹now binge watching. 💜🌹💜🌹💜🌹💜🌹🍀 THANKYOU. LOVE YOUR CHANNEL 🌹💜🌹💜🌹💜

Is shadow mix the same as neutral tint?

Hajra, are these leaves copied or photocopied? I'm not familiar with Gouache or watercolor. Blessings and thanks _Feb. 20/17.

Hajra, thank you so much for making your videos I was particularly drawn to the grisaille video, and I love that you step out of the box and use this in different media other than oil. I subscribed to your channel and I hope you will subscribe to mine. Looking forward to more of your videos.

interesting as hell. Haijira I Asked your friendship
