I know it may not be the best for you with the algorithm, but I like to save some videos that I know I will simply LOVE for a more relaxed time of day when I can truly enjoy them! I knew this would be one of those kinds of a video! Thank you for sharing your wonderful Rose Painting! It was a real JOY to watch, I also enjoy painting Roses like this one, they are easier and relaxing to do. I hope your having a lovely afternoon or evening as the case may be. Please take care and be safe over there! Til next time . . . Have a lovely day!

This "backwards" style of starting with the darks is extremely helpful. I learned it from a natural history illustrator.. she starts with the mass tones, builds the lighter areas with a series of glazes, then comes back at the end for the darkest shadows. The mass tones give you a "map" of where everything needs to be. The traditional method.. starting light and working to dark, means you have to plot darks over the top of a monochrome painting when it is successively harder and harder to see your drawing underneath. I find it so much easier and it produces better results with a ton of clarity and less layers overall.

Excellent Sarah! I love to watch you build up the layers. You’re right about Anna being an amazing artist, but so are you my dear. Just loving your videos and your painting, tips, etc. Thank you for sharing. Blessings to you!

My goodness you are awesome teacher and artist too! I understood better than anybody I’ve seen! I don’t understand why you have not more subscribers? Love the realistic and natural way you do it, I’m not into the abstract stuff at all!
Thank you so much!

Here are the substitutes I found (and tested) for each of the watercolour paints used in the tutorial. They are either _exact_, _nearly identical_ or _similar_ replicas of the colours used.

• *Quinacridone Rose* : permenant rose (PV19) *+* crimson (any deep red colour) = _exact_

(I believe permanent rose (PV19) + alizarin crimson hue (PR179) will also create this)


• *Rhodonite Genuine* : rose permanent (PV19) *+* a bit of chinese white (PW5) = _nearly identical_


• *Pyrrol Scarlet* : cadmium red hue (PR149, PR255) *OR* vermillion (PR254) = _exact_


• *Hansa Yellow Light* : lemon yellow hue (PY175) + cadmium yellow hue (PY97, PY65) + a bit of chinese white (PW5) = _almost identical_


• *Jadeite Genuine* : hooker’s green (PY139, PB15, PG7) = _similar_


• *French Ultramarine* : ultramarine (PB29) *+* dioxazine purple (PV23) = _exact_


I used Winsor & Newton Cotman watercolours as substitutes. Correct ratios of each colour should hopefully result in the colours used in the video. (Trial and error).

Love love love :) YT needs to add hearts next to the thumbs up and ditch the thunbs down on the art video's. People get a free art lesson. If they wanna bitch, join twitter or do better yourself, right :P
