Tuto aquarelle 2 EN 1 Spécial débutants - Digitales & Motif flowerpower 🌈✌🏻

Hi everyone, welcome to this new watercolour video We're taking out the brushes, the palette, the watercolour paper And I propose you this new special 2 in 1 watercolour video Which means we're going to do 2 watercolours Which are particularly for you if you're a beginner Even if you already have a little experience, you're going to have fun too, I guarantee it But we're going to explore 2 different themes Always a theme a little bit flowery on the botanical universe because I can't help it And another one a little bit more graphic, so we'll see 2 different techniques But these 2 watercolours work very well So if you want to use them, why not for a decoration or something like that It's totally doable In any case, I hope you'll like it And let's go We're going to start with the watercolour material you'll need So try to provide a fairly large watercolour brush of preference Either a size 10 or a size 16 We need a fine point for the details and a fairly large body To be able to load it well in water and pigments I'm going to use the size 16 from Princeton And it's the Heritage, it's really great You can load it well in water and pigments And it's very interesting when you start watercolour To work a little more loosely You see, it still has a fairly strong belly If you don't have a size 16, take a size 10, a size 12 Even a size 8 will do the trick too For the watercolour paper, I'm going to use for this video The 100% cotton quality 300g per square meter, fine grain from Winsor & Newton It's the professional watercolour, it's the one I use all the time It's a very good value for money You have it in the link directly in the description Otherwise, use a classic watercolour paper The one you have on hand will also do the trick We want a A5 format It will be more than enough for our two watercolours For the colours, I'm going to use as always My original palette, my selection of 12 extra fine colours From Winsor & Newton It's a palette in partnership with Winsor & Newton and Aquarelle & Pinceaux You can find it on their website You need a cloth and a pot of water I'm also going to use this marguerite palette I'm going to have it next to me because it has big spaces Where you can mix the colours We're also going to use some white It will be more practical because we're going to work with pastel colours For this video, I'm going to use the cobalt violet Which is a very pretty colour I'm also going to use the white tube, the titanium white If you don't have white, you can use gouache It will do the trick I think that to make pastel colours Because we're going to work with pastel colours I think it's easier to work with watercolour white Because it always makes the colours more transparent When you add gouache to the colours to make pastel colours It opacifies a lot And you don't have the possibility to work with transparency And that's what we like with watercolour, to be able to work with transparency I'm also going to use the cobalt green Which is a very pretty colour And we're going to add a little bit of white to each colour Especially in the last exercise To be able to work with a whole palette of pastel colours You'll see, it's very pretty with watercolour We're starting our first watercolour with digital colours Start by soaking your brush in your water We're going to fill it with water And then we're going to make a simple mix Of a green that I really like It's mint green Which is more or less blue or green It has a greyish colour A bit more neutral, which I really like For plants So you mix the yellow lemon And the ultramarine blue To make this pretty mix We start from the bottom of the leaf You see, I'm going to hold my brush vertically And make it slide from bottom to top To really go up to the centre of the leaf So two stems already Place them next to each other We're going to leave a small margin of white At the bottom of 2 cm So that it all breathes a little bit After you've rinsed your brush well You can dip it directly in your Cobalt purple watercolour Or directly at the end of the tube Because it's a slightly less pigmented colour It's beautiful for the purple digital If you don't have this colour Use a blue and a red that you mix together And you'll have a purple colour If you use a bit more red or pink You'll get something similar to this colour To make the bells of these digital You see, I alternate Between a light pressure With the body of the brush on the paper And I also alternate with the tip of my brush Which allows me to make really fine details Like, for example, just the end of the bell With the tip With which I really draw More like a pencil So you also have your ally Which is the cotton cloth When you start watercolour It's really good to use it Because it allows you to master a little bit more And know a little bit better what's going on in your brush What amount of water you have exactly Always downwards On the purple digital So we've already placed 6 And when we're going to go up We're going to lighten the bells To do that, we simply add more water It's the rules of watercolour To lighten a colour, we add water Later we'll cheat a little bit with the white So what you do is You come back with your glass And you make all your connections to the main bell So if it's still wet, you see The glass may melt a little bit in the bells Or leave it like that To melt a colour that will also be very pretty So with the tip of the brush I draw very loose bells Very blurry Which go up like that little by little Towards the stem of the top Smaller and smaller And at the end we'll just have little bells And you can always come back As long as it's wet There we work with a lot of water You can come back with a little more pigment On the first digital bells Or on your purple And remember to connect everything We're not going to fill the bell entirely You see, we're going to leave the bottom part of the stem A little bit lighter We're just going to put a few bells At the end of the flowering So we're going to reload our brush With the mint green that we created at the beginning We're going to use it for all the watercolour It will always be the same We're not going to change it along the way We're going to place our brush At the bottom of the stem Like that we're going to come back Very slowly by applying a light pressure We can reload a little more the shape of our leaf But we make a kind of tongue A little bit like we do in the video On the tulips for example It's the same thing but in a slightly shorter version So on the stem next to it which is a little shorter This time too Because we're going to make different heights Of digital stems We start again the same thing We take our cobalt purple And we follow the little bells down I'm going to slow down the video a little Because it's the same thing as the first digital stem You make your connections Make it a little bit more pale A little bit more blurry Than the first digital stem So you see I also keep the bells at the top In white reserve I make contours with the tip of my brush Which is very fine I hope your brush will also allow you To make a level of detail as precise as the Pringstons Because they are great for that For the level of detail And then you can go to the yellow version You can also make yellow digital stems Because they exist well There is also a variety of this color Which is very pretty in watercolor So I quickly go on the next one Because the one on the right I'm going to redo it a little later Because I wasn't very satisfied with the result Of my first yellow digital stem So it's really very simple Very blurry You see I stay in a very blurry effect And tell yourself that anyway By drying At some point the watercolor will dry completely You can come back later With a black beak You will see that later we will do with a black beak Some details to finalize Our little painting So there you see with my rag I completely erased The flowers at the top of my first digital Because everything was still wet So you can come back like that With your rag and erase everything So that it does not impregnate your paper And there I completely restarted My yellow digital On the same principle as the first and the second By keeping maybe effects A little more blurry And if possible you add A third stem 1, 2, 3 digital stems It works better I find to my taste Always when it's an odd number But do to your liking If you want to add more go ahead The essential is to keep a mass Around our flowers Always with the green So do not hesitate to redo your green Our mint green More or less blue, more or less yellow You exert this pressure From the bottom to the top And you go up by loosening slightly To make this stem This leaf in the shape of an angle So we can make several To fill a little more the bottom of the leaf And with the same green We can come back on the first dry flowers And then re-clarify the connections Come back to give the intensity to some stems Put a little more detail To this blurry mass But we like it We will let dry And then we will come back When everything will be dry At the heart of the little bells To come back with small spots With a black beak We go to our second watercolor So take out your second format We will not need the tweezers We will need a paint scotch If you have it under the elbow Or repositionable scotch Or washi tape We need a scotch that comes off easily It will serve us to keep a whole margin of white Around our watercolor painting We will be able to have fun Put a little bit everywhere But we will keep this clean This white frame of bare paper Which will remain really clean under the scotch And that's quite practical I take out my palette Marguerite And with this touch of white I will be able to mix blue And make a pale blue Green and make a pale green The yellow may not be necessary But it will allow us to make pastel shades Which will be very nice So if you do not have white Titanium white or watercolor white Use gouache So this time I'm going to take my 12 size brush Because I want to have a level of detail A little bit higher But you can use the same brush You can test your colors on a small sample I'm looking for a pale blue So I'm going to add my titanium white Which gives a little more blue effect Which I find very pretty So I show you the gesture I just make a wave Like that in the corner of the sheet I retest Why not after my green I'm going to do the same gesture I'm going to follow the first wave I made We will make a series of lines In the form of waves You can make sure they do not touch I make sure they touch To make openings And to leave shades Of color Do as you wish If you do not want them to touch Be careful not to touch the top line This is an exercise that will be more with the tip of the brush Then I used my cobalt purple And here I come with a pink Golden button VF colors I like it a lot Because it has a little more orange If you want to reproduce this color You mix a pink with white And you add a little orange And you should get this veillette pink Which is also very cute Very nice Then I come back with my yellow lemon It's always the same It's the titanium yellow lemon And there just a little drop of water To brighten it a little We have our pattern Blue, green, purple, pink, yellow The idea is to alternate Waves a little wider A little thinner What inspired me for this pattern It's the posters a little psychedelic Hippie, flower power You see they are very graphic Very colorful There I wanted a version a little softer A little more child With this pattern Which could also very well be In the form of a rainbow for example And do only rainbow shapes Like that, in repetition Up to the bottom of the page It could also be very cute Really it's an exercise you can do With your children If you want to make them discover watercolor It can be a very good idea Work like that, shades a little more Veillette as I said It could be a great idea So already for you, to have fun To empty your head To spend a moment a little meditative To repeat a pattern It's always super nice To look at shades of colors To let the water and pigments do It's pretty cool If you want to share it with your children It's a very good idea to realize this pattern With them in the company of your children You evolve like that You follow the pattern And you evolve to the bottom of the page Diagonally Once you get to the bottom of the page We will let dry We will put the watercolor entirely on its cardboard And we will remove the tape Once everything is dry There are certainly oreoles I think they have their charm I think they do all the charm of watercolor If we did not have an oreole We could hardly understand that it is watercolor So they are part of the game I think it's a rendering Which is rather nice, quite blurry And that I like a lot I hope you will like it too We go back and we come back with our watercolor From the start with the digital Everything is dry And now with a black pencil We will add some details to the heart of the flowers So our violet color of cobalt Which is a great color that I love By drying, it gives a granulation effect Which is super pretty And you can redefine the details With a black beak pencil Take a black that you have in your hand It does not matter, we still need a fine point And you see, we're going to make small circles Inside, small dotted dots And redefine the wavy side Of the end of the flower In the shape of a bell You see, it really allows To redefine the flower better To give some detail But do not put it everywhere Do not darken the whole By totally inking All our digital bouquet We want to keep the watercolor side We want to keep the transparency And that's what we like too The very loose side on which we worked But really, the black beak Is there to give a little more presence And identity to the flower We come to a rather nice moment Of our tutorial You can now remove all the margin In scotch And rediscover An immaculate white margin Which remained naked under the scotch It's pretty nice to do So now that everything is dry What you can do is add a little detail In lettering Of our very graphic And very colorful creation I used a Winsor & Newton In size of 0.5 mine So a pretty thick mine But really, if you feel comfortable In the exercise of lettering Launch yourself I confess that it's not my strong point It's not my favorite field So I stayed quite minimalist On the size of my letters But really, you can let go And write a little flower power Or inspiration Or write what inspires you So we finished together This two-in-one special watercolor tutorial I hope you liked this
