Thank you Sandra! @sandra-strait

Beginners to Watercolour 1 week, 5 days ago@springscreation You’re welcome Lisa. I think we all do that.
I use 4 different types really: Arches for my fine art; Winsor & Newton’s or Strathmore’s for my journals; and Strathmore’s 200 Series for swatching and cardmaking. I have an assortment of others that I’ve tested, but these are my go-to’s.
It takes time to find what you need for y…[Read more]

Beginners to Watercolour 2 weeks, 4 days agoI really enjoyed her process and she used an iridescent medium to sparkle the fish, which I particularly loved because fish scales have that quality to them. ❤️ I want that palette too. 😍 I’ve sourced all kinds of ceramic palettes as I like to use them with my oils too, and have never found that one.

Beginners to Watercolour 3 weeks, 1 day agoHas anyone taken any of Sandra Angelo’s courses? If you have what did you think? (She has ones for learning to draw in a speed learning method she has been teaching for a long time.) Though they are pricey.
-
Hi Cynthia! I’m sorry for my delay. The holiday weekend was so hectic! I have not heard of her. I did look at her website and saw that she has free classes with a sign up process. Have you tried those to get a feel for her teaching methods?
-
Good idea , Yvonne. I found the page with the free lessons -you have to sign on to her mailing list to be able to down load them and it hasn’t responded to my request to sign up. I have watched a few of her videos on fb and she is heavily promoting her online course, and her students appear to get good results but most of the talking points are…[Read more]

Yes, quite a few teachers do that, don’t they. 😏 Hopefully your sign up request for the free classes will get processed soon and you can get a feel for the classes. Are you looking to learn to draw or polish your existing style?
-
Learning, Yvonne. I am not good at drawing or colour.
-
It takes time and practice to grow those skills. Have you looked at Lindsay Weirich’s Drawing Class? It’s modestly priced and she was able to help me grow my drawing skills. I have taken all of her courses except her “Critique Club” and enjoy them very much.
-
Thanks, Yvonne, for the tip. I have signed up for some by Brent Eviston on Udemy, with a coupon each section is only 9.99 which is very reasonable. He teaches drawing from observation. From what I can gather Sandra Angelo teaches drawing from photographs which are two different skills I’m supposing.And then drawing better from the imagination…[Read more]
