How to Paint a Beautiful Loose Watercolor - Wet in Wet Florals

Watch ad-free on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/collection/79329 Join me on Patreon https://patreon.com/dianeantonestudio Do you really need a big studio to create art? Today, I’m testing that theory by painting in just one square meter of space—on my lap! With a simple lap table, a small watercolor pad, and a few supplies, I’ll show you how you can paint anywhere, whether you’re short on space or on the go. Along the way, I’ll share my thoughts on hot press paper, a few fun watercolor techniques, and why sometimes, all you need is a brush and a bit of creative energy to shake off a sluggish day. If you've ever felt like you don’t have enough space to paint, I hope this video inspires you to give it a go anyway! Let me know in the comments—have you ever painted in an unexpected place?

They are handmade in Japan. Drawell will ship readily to anywhere in the world. The prices on their website are in Japanese currency but if you send Mr Maeyama an email he will give you prices in other currencies. The brushes I use are the Maestro Series (black and Gold handles) and the Golden Nylon Series 11-2 (red and white handles) and I use sizes 5, 7, 9, 11 and 13. http://www.drawell.co.jp/english/product.html --------------------------------------------------------------- CONNECT WITH ME Visit the YouTube Community Tab here: https://www.youtube.com/DianeAntoneStudio/community Diane Antone Studio Private YouTube Members Group - for Members only https://www.facebook.com/groups/dianeantonestudiomembers Website: https://dianeantone.com Facebook Diane Antone Studio: https://www.facebook.com/dianeantonestudio Facebook Members Only Group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/dianeantonestudiomembers Facebook Learn to Paint Watercolor Group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/learnwatercolourpainting Facebook Learn to Paint Mixed Media Group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/learnhowtopaint Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/dianeantonestudio Pinterest: https://www.pinterest.com/dianeantonestudio TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@dianeantonestudio Please visit our baby sister channel @fromthegarden Tip Jar: https://tinyurl.com/dastipjar --- We use royalty-free music from Epidemic Sound.
