hey would you ever post a watercolour tutorial?

I’m so obsessed with the way you colour your works

thank u!! i'm not certain how helpful a tutorial of mine would be because my process is pretty much just "paint where it looks like paint should be!!" but maybe i'll at least post a video sometime so there's some kind of visual to go with that idea? :'D

in terms of just writing my thoughts at least, though, since i don't have any actual tutorial for you,,

i honestly just use the same two or three watercolours right out of the tube for every single painting i've done lately if that's any indication of how i actually approach this stuff,, (because i don't like mixing colours lmao)

i think the biggest thing is to practice and pay attention to the basics and then let go of making things perfect,, just let your brush do the thinking for you once you have a general idea of how the medium works !! once you understand the basic principles, experiment, have fun, figure out what you personally like the look of and focus on refining those traits ^^

basically, just do what you think will look cool and eventually i'm sure something will click! the way i colour is very much just a culmination of the things i find fun while painting and it really just came about as my way of making painting more enjoyable for myself; if you focus on the parts you enjoy then i'm sure you'll discover a painting style perfectly suited to you ! :D

my apologies if that's a little off-topic, but hopefully you find something useful in there somewhere!! ^^

on average, how long do you think it takes you to complete one painting? the amount of detail and precision you put in is really beautiful so i was wondering

I'd say the sketch takes about an hour or two, the lineart takes about an hour, and then the painting itself takes anywhere from 2-4 hours usually depending how many layers I decide to use (and how much I'm actually focusing on working on it)! After that, scanning it and darkening the lines a bit (since my scanner tends to wash them out) takes about an hour also. So, in total I guess around 7-ish hours per painting is probably my average? Thanks for asking! :D
