Thanks for the tutorial. I did this for awhile and works great. I saw another video where the artist, instead of a burnisher tool to trace on to paper, used a bone knife and scraped the drawing gently. I tried this and find I don't get the accidental indents on my paper and the transfer is light depending on the pencil used.

Would it not be too heavy?

Thanks for your video. I use water mixable oil, and clean my brushes with water. Is there anyway I can separate the oil paint from the dirty water ?, If I leave the mix even for days the paint does not sink to the bottom. I can't throw away the dirty water to the environment also since it contains the oil paint.

Water is so difficult. This is beautiful.

Wow. Gorgeous.

25 years?! You've been teaching since you were born??!

Thank you! I've got all the wrong brushes for watercolors lol I'm gonna binge watch your channel and THEN buy your recommended supplies. Amazon here I come! Thank you thank you thank you!

i'm sorry, but I don't see any gray. I see toned down colors, but none of them grey. That may be my fault because I'm grey/green colorblind. Many times I can't tell grey from tan or green. But to my eye, NONE of these appear grey to me. One appears to Payne's grey, one appears to be dark purple and one appears to be shades of brown. NONE of them, to my eye, are grey.

I love the way you put this together.

Thank you so much. My wife handed me the block and asked me to "figure it out"! I couldn't and then I found your video. Not being in the 2 dimensional arts, this whole process seems bizarre to me. But it makes sense once you realize you don't take the sheet out and paint.

Thank you!

Your really good at art❤

I like that your going quickly very helpful video 😊

Good video, but the music makes it difficult to understand. It's too loud and annoying.

Thank you! Such a great solution. Saved me $$$$

Very nice fan brush skills and really learned lot and like the last grass/flowers. Thanks.

Fantastic instruction! So helpful!

Thank you so much for showing how to mix on the paper! What brand of Diox violet do you use?

It made it smudge a little but otherwise it worked pretty well thanks😊 Edit: I waited for it to dry then tried again and it went away. Really helpful👍 If it doesn’t work for you it may be that you’re using too much water or pressure

Enjoyed this a lot, Crystal. I really enjoy how you explain your process. I love watching and hearing people describe this. It helps 'hit home' for me in my own practice and making improvements. Thanks so much for your video! A natural teacher.

Phenomenal work, Crystal! I've binged a few of your videos. Stunning work. Selfishly would love to see more of your oil work. I love your brushwork and colors.

Do you need to Gesso the Wood when painting with Liquitex Acrylic INKS????

I gave up on clouds! This video is so inspiring and so clear. Thank you for making it. I cannot wait to dive back into my cloud study!

Do you have a suggestion for how to get rid of wood fibers after already painting it? I can’t see the fibers but I can feel it on one of the drawer fronts.

Awesome

EYE needed thissssssssssssssssss in my life.

Hi, is this workshop still available?

Thanks Crystal, very clear and concise presentation :-)

👍

I clicked on the amazon link for the mesh and I couldn't find an 8x10 panel. only 6x8. Is this what you bought ?

I read that Prussian blue a fugitive color? Is that true?

Subscribed - waiting for more content.

Beautiful clouds rendered well and clear narrative which is very important for any demo. Loved the visuals of cloud illustrations to explain the types of clouds. Personally I would prefer using cooler colours to make the grey in the stormy clouds. Fantastic demo 👍🏻

Brilliant

thanks a lot Ma’am, now the four wedges at the back side of koh i nootr pencil cap makes a sence

This was so helpful! Thank you so much! I purchased it all and it’s almost working. The only thing is that my panels are just couple inches too wide so they are not stretched. My pop tent is 10x10 but as it goes up I believe it just gets a little smaller. The meshes actual size is 9’6” and I feel like if it was 9’ it would be the perfect stretch so I can hang pieces off it. Any idea on how I could fix that? How to make it couple inches smaller? Or maybe you hack to stretch it better ? Thank you so much!❤

DOES NOT WORK RUINED MY DRAWING

Beautifully executed, love your paintings too. O definitely will ne trying out that plastic mesh for my upcoming shows. Where did you get your tent frame? Is it flourish?

What is the thickness of the sides and front/back panels?

Any tips on making it tight?

So helpful! Did you put the mesh wall over wall the tent comes with? or did you only use the mesh?

Everything you said I have been feeling myself. It can be very discouraging and I think about quitting probably every day, I’ve wanted to be a working artist my whole life (now almost 60) but needed to support myself and have been a teacher my entire career. The last year I have been focusing on learning and improving as an artist and my hope is that I can sell my first painting soon. I love your videos, they are so helpful, thank you for being vulnerable and sharing your expertise.

Excellent 😊

Thank you so much for sharing. I’m a beginner for watercolor. I’ll keep watching your videos to learn about it. Thank you again😊

so helpful and thank you for sharing

Thank You! Thank you! Thank You!! I’m doing a show next weekend following your template to the TEE! I’ll post pics, so ready to give up the furniture/tables/shelves ect

What did you use for the frame like it looks like a pipe and drape set up what pipes specifically did you use?

The link for the tent on Amazon shows up as a shade mesh panel. What tent did you recommend? Is it sturdy and robust? Also, I would love to see how the cables were hung on tent poles. If they are hung horizontally did you drill holes in the tent poles to keep them in place from sliding down? Or were they hung vertically from the tent's top poles?

Thank you 👍

Great lesson!
