Putting this tutorial together was laborious and time consuming, but if you learn a few things, then it was worth it. I hope you like it. I tried to cram as much info as I can into the video, and yet there are still so many things about watercolor that I left out. Maybe I will do more tutorials in the future. There are several places in the video where I make mistakes while painting. I think this is ok to show the viewer how I deal with problems I encounter. Anyway, I really really really really hope you like it!

Very useful and your drawings are really great.
good job on the video tutorial :) I think we learn more when we see how to deal with mistakes than if everything went perfectly fine, I know I do anyhow. Though I'm not much into watercolor, I still like seeing the process.
That's a very good tutorial - thanks for sharing! =)
Greetings Tiffanny- thanks for visiting my blog. I really liked your tutorial; I'm working in oils currently, but your advice on brushstroke and color temperature and mixing is insightful for other medium too. Good working narrative; going through problems and fixing them helps us, because we all have to slog through them!
Tiffany, these tutorials are AMAZING!!! (technically I'm only part way through teh first one but I knwo the rest will eb good as well.) This is perfect timing for me as my current children's book is going to be done in watercolor paints. The thing is I know watercolor isn't my best medium, as it is one I've had the least amount of work with. But I'm still decent with it and I know it will be the best medium for this project. In watching this video for the first five minutes or so I have already learned a ton. Amazing information. I'm currently working on my first tutorial showing my oil painting process but my camera work is really bad so i may have to edit most of it out,LOL. You did an excellent job. I know how much work is involved in making this video so thanks for sharing.
I was wondering what kinf of brush you ar eusing as one problem I have allways had with watercolors is I can't seem to find a good brush that keeps it's point.
Matthew, many watercolorists will tell you that the best brush for watercolor is Kolinski Sable, but for ethical reasons (fur-trapping) I have switched to the Da Vinci Cosmo Top Spin brush. A good substitute. I painted today's entire painting with it. I hope this is helpful!
