Great . Thanks
When painting icons with different brushes it might be helpful to write what size and type of brush you used to create each icon. These would be good pages to keep for future reference.
Donna..yes. I talk about that in the color mixing lessons and in the live stream. It is helpful to take notes on the brushes and paints used, so you have a reference if you need it later.
I was also wondering what brush you were using, Traci, and thinking that it would be good to mention this in the actual video, which was surprising short!
Jen..if you listen to about 48 seconds in. I tell you exactly what type of brush I’m using. It’s a ROUND brush size 12. But it doesn’t really matter what brush you use. It’s all about experimenting. Experiment with different shapes and sizes. This will give you a lot of floral icons to refer back to. REMEMBER…you are developing your own style NOT copying my work exactly. I do my best to mention or list the brushes that I use during most lessons. But I want you to use what you have and not buy everything I’m using. One of my main messages throughout the course is to start incorporating YOUR own UNIQUE style. As for the length of the pre-recorded videos, they range from a few minutes all the way up to 30 minutes or so. The live stream workshops are upt to 1 hour and 45 minutes. These shorter videos are meant to be easy jumpstarts to get you warmed up for painting.
Thanks for you reply, Traci. I have watched the brush icons video session a couple more times and found it really helpful (it’s amazing how much advice and info you pack into a few short minutes!) I’m now making notes cos I find I quickly forget what’s gone before and intend to do lots of practice as each time a little more sinks in! Thanks again for your inspiring approach!
awesome Jen..enjoy painting the flowers!
