Watch ad-free on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/collection/79329 Are you a watercolor beginner? Do you ever feel disheartened? There's a lot of advice out there telling us all to think outside the box, be creative, find our own style... but the truth is that if you want to learn to paint you really only need to do one thing. PAINT! (And possibly draw... but not necessarily.) Today I'm giving a shoutout to @SuzanneAllardDesign who has done an incredible amount of work putting together a huge range of fun, colorful, varied and accessible courses on Skillshare. I think you really COULD learn to paint in a month if you followed all of her classes, and we're giving you the chance to do it for FREE with our Skillshare link! So I invite you to unlock a box of relaxing and doable artistic possibilities by signing up for your free month on Skillshare and following as many of Suzanne's classes as you can!

They are handmade in Japan. Drawell will ship readily to anywhere in the world. The prices on their website are in Japanese currency but if you send Mr Maeyama an email he will give you prices in other currencies. The brushes I use are the Golden Nylon Series 11-2, and I use mostly sizes 7or 9 and 10 and 13. http://www.drawell.co.jp/english/product.html --------------------------------------------------------------- CONNECT WITH ME Visit the YouTube Community Tab here: https://www.youtube.com/DianeAntoneStudio/community Diane Antone Studio Private YouTube Members Group - for Members only https://www.facebook.com/groups/dianeantonestudiomembers Website: https://dianeantone.com for detailed information about materials and free sketch downloads Facebook Diane Antone Studio: https://www.facebook.com/dianeantonestudio Facebook Members Only Group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/dianeantonestudiomembers Facebook Learn to Paint Watercolor Group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/learnwatercolourpainting Facebook Learn to Paint Mixed Media Group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/learnhowtopaint Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/dianeantonestudio Pinterest: https://www.pinterest.com/dianeantonestudio TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@dianeantonestudio Please visit our baby sister channel @fromthegarden Tip Jar: https://tinyurl.com/dastipjar --- --- We use royalty-free music from Epidemic Sound.
