  There are so many people giving tutorials on the internet. &nbsp;It wasn&apos;t until today that I could find someone to explain to me why I was having so many water problems, how to avoid them AND how to fix them. &nbsp;You&apos;ve gained a new student and fan!

  This is one of the most helpful tutorials on watercolour I&apos;ve seen so far. To me, when it comes to watercolour painting, all about water is difficult. I don&apos;t seem to get the hang of it - how much water, what paper? It&apos;s always too wet or too dry and there are always unwanted water lines and water blooms. This was very useful, presented in your usual wonderful way.

  Very useful tip on fixing hard edges after the painting has dried! And the tip for avoiding them is pure gold. Your transition from the wet area and that painted wet on dry is so natural. Much appreciation, Louise! 🥰 Cheryl

  The information you provide about watercolor techniques is superb. &nbsp;Thank you. &nbsp;I appreciate the quality of your videos - they are succinct and straightforward without any annoying chit chat, music, or other distractions like comments such as “I love this” or other exclamations about your work. &nbsp;Your voice is calm and easy to listen to. &nbsp;The photography is very helpful, especially close-ups showing where you’ve wet the paper or the degree of wetness. &nbsp;Your videos and instructions stand far above most on YouTube.

  Wonderful tips and presentation as always. I had to laugh as I actually really liked how that first “ incorrect” drawn shape turned out. What a great way to get a highlight in the middle and lovely shadows on the edges. Of course if that’s NOT what you wanted then disaster, but I love how you repaired all of these. I just learned that dry hake brush thing this past weekend in a class when my paint was too wet for second layer and had too much bleed. Really works! Thanks for all you give.

  Excellent explanation on why mistakes happen. Until now it was a mystery to me and an incredible source of frustration. This is one of the most useful videos i have ever seen on the topic of watercolour. Thank you🙏
