Draw Tip Tuesday - Brush Stroke Exercise

Welcome to Draw Tip Tuesday!

Today, let's do a fun exercise, using paint! Challenge yourself by mixing a new color for each brush stroke. It's fun, it slows you down, and it really makes you look and see so many color variations! It's also a great way to get to know your paint better.

Materials used in this video:
-Hahnemuhle Brittania hot pressed watercolor paper 300 grams
-Winsor&Newton gouache paint (cadmium yellow, primary yellow, raw sienna, cadmium red, alizarin crimson, burnt umber, PhThalo blue, ultramarine)

I am glad that you decided to still do dtt videos ❤. They are a reason why I got back to ink and gave it a 2nd chance. You are really inspiring. Thank you so so much😊

Good to see your face over here. Thanks for this gift and carry on with the resetting process! Don't think of if and when you'll be posted a new video, just go with the flow and listen to what you want/need to do.

I have never thanked you for inspiring me over and over. With building my confidence, simplifying things that look to hard to draw, with your soft, ” you can do this too “ encouragement, sharing so very much of your talent and life with us on you tube !! I use and have made many of your father’s” watercolor watches” and think that they are wonderful( I find old or new compacts work great !) !! I pray you will find a path that brings you the joy you have freely given to us in the art community! With heartfelt appreciation and that contentment with walk with you daily ....you are such an amazing person ! Jadie

7 years of weekly DTT is more than enough, thanks 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍 time for change 😊
Tip: if you use 2 cups of water, you can use the first cup to rinse your brush, and the second cup to load your brush with clear water. But you probably know this already 😉

Thank you for this amazing video. I love the technique and really want to try it. I understand your quest to find what's important to you. Your teaching is wonderful and you are so gifted in that - I hope you include teaching in whatever you choose (completely selfish on my part). God bless you as you search for what is important to you.

Thank you so much, dear Koosje, for your inspirations. I discovered your channel only a few months ago and I am so glad about your tips. I learned again that it is never too late to start something new, and I am doing this with great fun. It helps me to distract in my a very challenging daily life.
I wish you all the best for your personal way and send you many greetings from Germany. ❤

So good to see you again Koosje. You popped into my head, wondering how you're doing, and I'm so pleased to find a few new DTTs from you. This one is lovely and looks such fun! I hope life is being kind, and I hope you know how many of us have enjoyed your teaching over the last few years and send our love and best wishes for all that you do next. x Judy in UK

Am Anfang wirkst du so traurig (scared) und gegen Ende wieder so enthusiastisch wie man dich kennt. Wir alle lieben dich, Koosje! Good luck!

[danibragaglia]

I am very excited to try it! Thank you for sharing your process
