How to use Watercolor Pencils : REAL BEGINNER VS ARTIST

Watercolor pencil painting can be confusing for a beginner, this is why I teamed up with my son Andy to do a demonstration of a beginner apple versus a more advanced one. You will see exactly what common mistakes beginners make with watercolor pencils, and how to avoid them!

What is your biggest takeaway from this video?

Poor Andy haha I can almost feel his frustration with the shadows!
Great idea with the video! I am hoping for more like this :)

Hi, Francoise. This was interesting - like Andy, I learned the hard way, because back then w/c pencils weren't used so much. Having learned the hard way, I worked out the better way, and subsequently, when teaching, teach those things.

But how does Andy feel now? It must have been very hard for him to be filmed in this way? Please thank him for me, for being willing to help us out, and for allowing you to use the film here on YouTube.

I could get something way better if I did it again with this video.
Good video!!! (as always 😉)

Excellent on how to construct a watercolor pencil picture. More like this please!

[anitadavidson]

My biggest takeaway was that I am not the first to make extremely similar mistakes. It gives me hope! 👏🏻

thank you so much. This really helped me to understand what to do and what not to do.

Thank you! I enjoy watching you create! I haven't started using my pencils other than to swatch them! I'm a beginner in watercolor... with love from a California Gramma ❤️

Excellent watercolor pencil video! I have had very similar problems as Andy, so please tell him there were probably 40 years separating us when I made those mistakes, and I hope you paid him LOTS of money for agreeing to do this video, bless his
