I’m here on this lovely day to share about watercolors from Da Vinci Paint Co., one of our sponsors for World Watercolor Month. We will explore a bit about the company, take a look at the Da Vinci watercolor t

Thank you so much for the mention! But oh Jessica, I will MISS your reviews! I like your very candid, honest voice. (When asked about MaimeriBlu watercolors – that I’ve never tried – I simple share your quote on those!) But totally understand and wish you the absolute best. It’s been a pleasure to watch your art and sketches evolve and grow also. I’ll still catch you around on IG, I’m sure. Happy painting!
-
Those MairmeriBlu still boggle me. Thank you so much for your kind and lovely comment Tonya!

Thank you, thank you, thank you! Thank you for all of your time, work and investment to complete these reviews, but most of all thank you for your perspective in art and life. All the best to you.

Thanks so much Laura!

Jessica’s, I have loved every review you have done. And all your words of wisdom. I had tears in my eyes as I read this. Thank you for everything; all your time, money and wisdom. You are a priceless friend! 😍

So wonderful that we met through the interwebs and then in person! And you’ll be coming back to AZ soon…yay!!! Thanks so much for all of your support!

Ooh, you’re right, I love the matte grey color of the palette and what great prices for good paint! Thanks for your review. I wish more paint came in 37ml tubes

Thanks Jennifer 🙂

Thank you Krishna.

Yay, I hope you enjoy the dot card. On occasion people comment about the interest in tutorials. I always find this curious because I’ve never thought all that much about my artistic abilities and posting examples has always been the most difficult part of putting together a review. Most of the time I simply sit down and hope that somethings turns out! Thanks so much for all of your lovely comments over the lifetime of these reviews! <3

Thanks so much Linda!

Thanks so much Yukari!!!

Cheers to the late bloomers Karen, I’m one too 🙂 I figure everything happens in perfect timing. We started when we started and that’s perfect! Yay us! 🙂

Hi Faith, what was funky about it?

I just got this set, so I’m appreciating this review as I begin to use these paints.

Wonderful Sharon. I hope it serves you well 🙂
My niece got one of these for Christmas. This little elf gives stuff early 😉

You are a very nice elf!

I just started trying watercolors and found your Doodlewash reviews. So helpful and informative. Thanks for all your work and the inspiration you’ve given me 🙂 What are those cute clips holding your watercolor books open?
-
I’m happy that they have been helpful to you. The clips are everything clips, and they do work for everything 🙂

I ordered this set and just received it. They also included a dot set and a bag. I love customer service like that. Now onto trying them.
It was good to read this review again. Thanks.-
Yay! I’m sure I’ll be seeing them 🙂

If done right, a painting makes a nice gift. I spend hours on the flowers. They are unique, and detailed.

What’s your favorite song or genre, Val? 🙂 I like acoustic and sentimental music. Any tunes that are slow and inspirational. I also like classic songs. One of my favorite is Yellow from Cold Play. 🙂

thanks Sandra. I was just gonna email you! I mailed your package with all the paper samples in it. I’ve already started filling my palette with new paint! Hehehe. (shocker, right?) I’ve gotta get more glue to glue the magnets on the half pans to finish though. Have a great weekend, don’t work too hard, hopefully the pkg won’t take too long to arrive. :o)

Lovely work

thanks Prashant!

WOW! It literally jumps off the page!! Okay… you’ve officially made me HAVE to tried toned paper. This is fantastic!

well since you do love sketchbooks, so far I have to recommend Hahnemühle’s greybook. The paper is SO smooth. BUT if you really want to watercolor in it (not just watercolor pencils and a small brush to slightly wet the marks and smooth stuff) then you’ll have to go Strathmore new toned multimedia paper. It’s watercolor paper toned.…[Read more]
-
Awesome! Thanks for the link! Yeah I just really love Hahnemühle paper and the form factor of their sketchbooks…. hmmmm… I need to ask them about whether or not they might make something like this!
-
Oh my gosh it would be so fantastic if they made a journal or even individual sheets of watercolor toned paper! So far I’m in love with their greybook toned paper journal. It’s SOOOOOO smooth so one doesn’t spend time trying to fill all the tiny holes in the not so smooth paper. I did this one in Hahnemuhle greybook Stash Final

Well, I remember the wall-o-matic! And trying to pry change from Mom and Dad to play a song. You’ve done a fabulous job in creating this site, Charlie, and you’re close to making your dream a total reality!

Thanks so much, Sandra!! 😃💕 You’ve done such a fabulous job of participating… seriously… thank you SO much for all you do here!

What a great doodle, memory and site! Thank you Charlie for all of your hard work to build a wonderful place to come to.

Thanks so much, Laura! 😃💕 I love what this place has become! Thanks so much for being a part of it!

What a wonderful painting of an item that was standard in my generation! The last time I enjoyed the mini jukebox was at The Diner in Los Gatos – one of papa and my favourite places to grab a brunch when we lived there. Happy memory! Thank you, once again, Charlie for letting your memories spark mine! ❤️

Aww my pleasure, Von! Thank you! 😃💕 I’m so happy these illustrations and stories bring back such good memories!

Thanks, Susan! Wasn’t it a blast!?! Loved those days!! 😃💕

LOL I remember flipping back and forth on the jukeboxes like maybe I missed a flap of songs 🙂 oh yeah the doodlewash community is cool for sure! Hey Charlie do you photograph or scan your posted doodlewashes?
-
hehe… yeah, those were the best memories!! 😃💕 And I scan all my doodlewashes…. photos just don’t retain the accurate color. Unless I’m traveling, then I have to resort to photos, but I prefer scans for accuracy all the way! 😉

Thanks Charlie!

Thanks so much, Shari! 😃💕 hehe… glad you liked this! Yeah.. I totally loved these things!!

I remember those little jukeboxes. So much fun and part of the outing for dinner.

Yeah, weren’t they awesome!! I really loved these things!! 😃💕 hehe

Aaaaand now I’m tempted to make some kind of Spotify channel for watercolorists.
(Not quite the same as a tabletop jukebox, but, y’know, *technology*….) 😀

That would be awesome! hehe.. can’t wait to hear the playlist! 😃💕

Thank you for the excellent tips! I love your atmospheric colors and loose style!

Wonderful suggestions!! Thank you!
-
your work has improved 100%. Good luck at your next venture into oil paints, but always keep exploring watercolors.
-
Thanks for sharing your watercolor journey. I like your tips and also believe you need to play with the paints as they help you relax and enjoy the process. Have fun!
-
I so enjoyed seeing your work but even more so, learning your process. Thank you for sharing both!
-
Your paintings are lovely and loose, I particularly admire the way you’ve painted water in the last photo. Thank you for sharing the way you choose your colours and sketching tips 🙂
-
Wonderful capture of light and merging of colors! Congrats on being featured! <3
-
I love your advice about starting out with a limited palette and wish I’d found it before I dove in a few years ago. (I thought I needed All The Colors, which probably made learning much harder since I had to navigate not only the ins and outs of watercolor in general, but the properties of each of the paints, too. Ah, hindsight. It is 20/20.)
(To be fair, too, I still have the ALL THE PAINTS urge. It may just be inherent in my character. :D)
Love your work!
-
I began with oils, then went to watercolours. You’re doing the opposite. You’ll notice a big difference in the handling of the paint, but what fun you’ll have in Florence! Thanks for sharing your story.
-
some really great advice here, thanks!
-
Great tips! I need a note on my sketchbook to remind myself to observe larger shapes before I start drawing all the details, lol.

You are so welcome Yvonne! I hope the class will be useful for you in your watercolor creative journey! 🙂
Yes I watched both classes yesterday and very much enjoyed them! I meant to ask if you would share your class link in our “Favourite Artists” forum too please. It’s a great resource. ❤️
So glad that you enjoyed them! I hope you could provide a little feedback to both classes so that others would know how it has helped you. I would really appreciate that. I will share the class to the forum you mentioned. Thank you so much for your support, Yvonne!
Btw, I couldn’t find the Favourite Artists forum. Can you please send the link to me? Thank you, Yvonne!
