Try using a hairdryer over the tape first- it melts the glue and makes the tape easier to remove.

side question, - whats the name of the song in the background? ty:)

I cut up Magic Eraser sponges into small pieces to remove paint that is unwanted. Let the piece dry thoroughly, dampen the sponge piece, and erase! It works great for areas like your margin!

Very helpful. I'm a very detailed watercolorist and trying to losen up what I paint. Love Plein air but have to bring the sketches home to paint. Wanting to be a bit more casual in my painting. Love your color selections.

Wow - excellent tutorial! I know this is supposed to be abstract, but I think it qualifies as a landscape painting as well....a very peaceful desert landscape. Loving your work! You have a new subscriber!

I've been doing abstracts with colored pencil for a while now but have been thinking of trying some watercolor ones. Thank for a very inspiring video!

This was really helpful, thank you! I know others have suggested the mr. clean sponges, but the thin sheets are amazingly worth their weight in cleanups.

[katEm]

This is great! Thanks! I'm more of a planner/perfectionist... so abstract can be very intimidating. But I want to try it! This will definitely be the inspiration for my first piece!

[cathykirwan]

Thank you for the wonderful tutorial! I love it! BTW try using a Mr. Clean sponge slightly dampened to remove little paint leaks.

[amylanagan]

Fantastic tutorial! I'm not much of a planner but seeing your process was eye opening. Thanks so much!
