45 What's the best way to learn watercolorpainting? | Food for artists

Love that concept: "find your own world". I think that's the way. Thanks

Thank you Titus. Friday is becoming a day I really look forward to spending time with you. I think you were fortunate not to be given strict directions at the Academy. Many of us, though grateful for the skills taught us, also had awful rows with tutors who were very stern and decreed their rules and vision had to be followed exactly. Consequently it has taken me far longer that it should have and much more struggle to learn that my own views were valid and worth pursuing. ( Especially as I'm an excellent copyist .) Your wisdom and warmth are a beacon that lights up my day. Salutations to you and all the other solitary painters out there .

It is a running day here in Montreal today, and i have passed a very good and cosy and...stimulate moment watching your video. In these very chocking time of suffering for so much people these moments are very precious and a recall that humans can still live simply, honnestly and sincerely share the beauty of life. Thank you so much.

What I really want to know is how you got so damn good with your greens man! Far out, so much nuance! I don’t think most casual viewers realise how accomplished a draughtsman you are either, and how important that foundation is to your final product.

Thank you!☺

Thank you. A blessing each Friday that's for sure, as others mention. Our light, lack of water, different buildings here in western Australia. I struggle to find the beautiful in the struggle and glare. But it is here.

I love "gather only the skills you need to show your own world"!!!

Each video offers surprises of interesting and useful details to soften the image, Marking the finirh safer on the Work of art -- thanksyou --Titus Meeuws,Painter!.

The dappled light on the roof ☀️ ❤

Happy…well I guess it’s almost morning there now. Ah, I enjoyed taking out😂 a sheet of wc paper the other day. The 650gm Arches can take a lot so I get very surprised by what it can handle. They are definitely worth it especially for intense layering. For the subscriber question your answer it spot on! There are techniques that one can learn then brush mileage that is just like learning music and composing music. Monday might bring special surprises but as the saying goes “water doesn’t boil if it’s watched.” Thank you! 😊

Perfect for a lovely Friday evening with a tea, thank you for the upload😍

I’m mesmerized looking at the movements of your hand and brush. A certain graceful quality about it. ✍️😀🎨

I look forward to your videos each Friday, I enjoy watching you work.

Another Friday afternoon date with Titus. Thank you being there. I may spend my week in artistic agony, but you kind of get me back on track. It is wonderful to know you; to watch your paintings evolve. Thank you again. ❤

Thank you for your kind words and bravo for your french accent :) . Another video full of insights !

beautifully said i paint every day for the love of creating ,thank you , im in love with your channel

Oh, I'm glad someone sent you a mug... I did notice the big chip and thought what fun to send you a new one, but then I thought "I don't know your address ". Titus Meeuws, an upstairs studio, the Hague, Netherlands? 🤔😅 I enjoyed your answer to the question. Yes, showing my world... that sounded good to me. And thank you for "making a mess" and then showing us how to respond. I've watched Titus, now it's the weekend 🤗

Thank you for sharing your creative energy with us. Every time I watch you I learn something new. Thank you.

I’m looking forward to the next video to find out if this last painting turns out to be a great tasting dish or if it becomes the back of a beautiful painting. It really hit home when you talked about finding one’s world, learning how to paint that world. I’ve been doing watercolor long enough to just be dangerous. I don’t know my style. I love landscape painting, so I’ve figured that part out. But am I loose or photorealistic? I don’t feel I’m ether. But I frustrate myself in trying to find out where I am that’s between. And in that I only feel I know enough about watercolor to make myself dangerous in the sense that what I do doesn’t bring me to where I thought I was going as a painter. I feel many times that I’m the painter that hasn’t found his home, his place to be. I’m sorry this is so long, but I’ve seen much in what you talk about. And it’s somewhat healing to write these words down. Keep painting Titus & I’ll continue to watch, listen and learn. Be well Titus!

Titus, знаеш колко много ми допада атмосферата на ателието ти, ти самия, начинът на поднасяне на идеи, размисли и дори само а следя как изисква картината изпод талантливата то ръка. Ти си награда, която не зная как заслужих, но ми е хубаво да я имам. Толкова си отдаден на изкуството, но и то ти се отдава. Роден си за това . Потвърждавам всяка твоя дума и се радвам, че си оследователем в решенията и в тях Ото изпълнение . Проблемът на всеки от нас е в това, че Знаем какво трябва да де направи, но не винаги го правим. Чудесен подарък получи от Франция, но какво й е а твоята чаша? И така си е добре😃Утре някой ще ти оплете пуловер, но на теб твоят ти е удобен. В това има много чар. Никой не рисува, облечен във фрак. Творците са над тези неща. За мен си си прекрасен какъвто си. Прегръщам те нежни, ако позволиш🤗💝
