Your tutorial is very amusing   ha ha especially the numbering part lol thanks for the color mixing tip. 
I've got a question: if not using masking fluid over the branches, how can you avoid watercolor over them? I mean if we pay close attention and paint slowly, then we can. But isn't it time consuming? or it's supposed to take time?

GrimDreamArt In reply to JamieTr [2015-05-05 06:24:34 +0000 UTC]

That's great that you like this tutorial!
I began to use masking fluid after a few years of painting with watercolors and at the beginning I found no use for it. But then, gradually I discovered that it makes the process of painting easier and faster. Masking fluid is really needed when we want to protect some little fragment of our work from painting over it, but in case of these tree branches it's not necessary. It's just helpful
I'm affraid that watercolor details are supposed to take some time (I usually spend about 3 days on an artwork).

Oh I see. Thanks for the confirmation   I was worried that I worked too slow on my watercolor painting  Thanks again....your artwork is really wonderful!

This is absolutely beautiful and well written! I've always found the idea of painting with watercolor daunting (I've tried it before and it didn't turn out too well aha), but I believe because of this I'll give it another go! Thank you!

I'm very happy to read that Watercolors (just like many other drawing/painting mediums) require some time to get used to them so give them a try!

Thank you very much for sharing your knowledge! Watercolours without a proper teacher is hard (at least for me) to fully explore. I might try it soon!

Never though of using salt, gonna have to experiment a bit. Thanks for taking the time to make this!

GrimDreamArt In reply to TheOneMattGuy [2013-06-13 08:45:21 +0000 UTC]

I can strongly recommend using salt to make some interesting textures It needs a little practise but after several attempts it can be very helpful.

Dear Evi, Is there any way to do it digitally?

👍: 0 ⏩: 1

GrimDreamArt In reply to shiftmaker [2012-08-04 16:05:19 +0000 UTC]

I think that digital painting can be quite similar to traditional (there are also layers, each next layer more detailed). Although it'll be hard to simulate wet on wet technique characteristic for watercolors. Anyway you can try. I'd really like to see a digital version!

Visited your Blog, and found some more sketches out there, which you didn't show in your DeviantART gallery, except first one. I liked the last sketch, the third one ranked second.
The Water tut is still hard for me (since no cereals are involved). Actually, I really wanna try it someday. Tried it (watercolors, not cereals) once or twice long time ago, but got it quite messy (...with paint, not from, let's say, dirty socks (just to be clear).
Thanks for sharing your work!

Well, watercolours need patience. But after about two years of training, painting with them is quite pleasant.

This is beautiful! and once again I am reminded that I souldn't be that cleanly with water clours.

And the way you wrote the numbers is fun Boring normal numbers and normal and boring.
