Today were talking about what if you’re doing a painting and use photos that someone else took as your reference material, can you use it for a show, can you sell it, can you claim it as your own? Are you using your artistic vision or copying an image? What if you took a class and are inspired by the instructor, and use their lesson and reference material, is it now yours? Is there a subject matter that you would like to hear about? Drop us a line and let us know Online courses Join the mailing list…
Pushing through the fear. Do you feel the need to always be perfect? What kind of artist do you want to be? Do you want to have the control you want over your brushstrokes, and if you don’t it can depend on the brush and the amount of water it’s holding? Are your paintings to weak and wimpy, and are you afraid of the darks? Try to relax and think of every painting as an experiment. We will be looking at a few white flower paintings and talking about the brushstrokestrokes, background and where do you want to direct the viewers eye? How to get the wobble out of the paper, try ironing it. Framing options When painting on a half sheet size painting 15"x22" the standard size frame I usually use is a standard 22"x28". The standard mat never seems to work as well so I have mine custom. You can go to your local craft store or framer for more information or custom frames, which can be pricy. I was looking online for online frame options, and the standard frame size can work but again, I'm not sure if the online mat option is as good as custom cut. I like Cheap Pete's but they don't ship the larger size frames Here are some online companies you can try, but you may want to call them before ordering.

Sometimes it’s difficult to get started and paint again, it can be because of some life circumstance, the holidays, or we're just not inspired. Not everyone enjoys the isolation of the studio or is a self-motivated artist, some enjoy painting with other artists, especially watercolor. With the pandemic, many people haven’t felt creative and have been absolutely paralyzed, so what are some of the things you can do, let’s talk about it. If you’re interested in taking an online course, or joining “Watercolor in Motion” take a look at my upcoming schedule on my website or go directly to my school…

In this episode will be having a conversation about where your inspiration come from? Have you ever thought of where you painting from in your body? Is it your head, your heart, your fingertips, wrist, arm, full body and what kind of experience is it for you? What about commissions, do you enjoy doing them or is it a chore, and how can you move away from realism into something more painterly. These are just some of the things that will be talking about in today's episode we're going to be talking…
Today Ann told us today about Ranger inks, and how much she is enjoying them, especially the distressed inks. Then our conversation took a turn into what's the difference of inks, alcohol inks and water color pigments and can alcohol inks be used in watercolor competitions. Personally, I found this fascinating information, I hope you will too. www.birgitoconnor.com Birgit's online watercolor courses Ranger inks…
When I first started painting years ago, the art store where I did my first demonstration gifted me with the largest brush that I had ever seen, a #30. I had no idea what to do with it, or how to use it, it wasn't terribly comfortable in my hand, I thought the brush they gave me was nice, so I just put it to the side, because most of my brushes that I worked with at that time, were the smaller #3, #8, #10 and maybe the largest brush being a #12. Then one day, I was a little tired of being fiddly with my strokes and I wanted to simplify my painting style and expand the size of my paintings. I found it challenging to get the results that I wanted with most of my brushes and I learned quite a bit just by testing different brands and types of brushes. Most were either be too soft and wimpy or stiff, so, I gave the brush from the demonstration a try, and it worked beautifully, I was not only able to expand the size of my paintings but grew as an artist. View on YouTube https://youtu.be/6BP7z-o_ocs If you have seen any of my earlier videos or demonstrations then you would have noticed my white handled brush, and over the years the ferrule loosened, and I wanted to share this great brush with my students, so I searched and it was nowhere to be found. I found an alternative that worked almost as well but I still loved my original white handle brush, and since I was not able to direct my students to this brush I put it to the side and focused on other ones. The funny thing is after 20 years or so, one day I found myself struggling with a piece of paper for a demonstration where the sizing just wasn't working for me, I grabbed that old brush, and it felt like an old friend, the comfort and ease of how well it worked, I thought just take another look around, and I found it, I was stunned. In the video you will be able to see the brush as I tested it again for the first time and it may be something that you might like to explore for yourself. You will now be able to find them in my store. am now carrying the brushes in my store on my website www.birgitconnor.com Visit my store Cats Tongue Wash Brush Blog Online courses…

Today we discuss how to get focused after being distracted with summer, and should you use black in a painting? If you use a black, should you use it from the tube or mix your own? will it look harmonious, like a black hole and what happens to the surrounding colors. When it comes to figures should you outline them or work with values, and what do you do when you see someone on the street that you want to paint? Try a Free online course at www.birgitoconnor.com…
Today we discuss backgrounds and ideas of how to approach them. More problem solving, what do is the masking sticks to paper and what about the magic eraser.
