Unexpected Connection: How My Past Influenced My Art Freedom (Bicycle Painting Adventure) Angela Fehr Watercolour 2024-09-29 | I knew it would be a fun addition to my artistic journey to use an electric bicycle to travel to local places to paint, but I had no idea that I would find a true connection between my artistic self and my past cycling experiences. Affiliate link below, I receive a small commission when you place an order. Thank you to GoTrax.ca for giving me the CTI 2 Electric Bicycle to try. I've experienced wonderful customer service from them and when the first bicycle I was shipped arrived with some issues (not their fault), they responded quickly and sent a replacement bike that has been a delight to ride. Check out the bicycle on their site here: bit.ly/47Lwbuu USE THIS DISCOUNT CODE!! Angela Fehr Watercolour-100If you're shopping for an e-bike and you're like me, not really up to the challenge of getting in shape for cycling season, a cruiser style bike is the way to go. The seat is comfortable, the tires offer a pretty smooth ride even on the rough gravel I tested it on, and the speed is just right for enjoying the views while being able to put some pretty good mileage on in an afternoon. Set up was easier than the booklet included with the bike suggested, with quite a few of the steps outlined already done for you. They send all the tools you'll need to set the bike up, except a pump for the tires. It's useful to have a second person with a little bit of wrenching experience on hand to help with setup. My husband saw me muddling along and sped up the process when he noticed I had the fork turned backward while trying to mount the handlebars to the frame. We got the bike assembled in less than an hour and after charging the bike overnight, I was riding the next day. Take your first ride in a level place with a long straight stretch so you can get used to the pedal assist and the boost of speed it provides. Make sure you test the brakes first so you can ride confidently! My additional modification was adding some non-slip matting to the back rack so I can set my paint palette on the rack as a little table while sketching on location. It's a little hack that makes a big difference for an on-the-go painter. The first time I rode this bike I met a dirt biker on the road who was SO curious about my e-bike. He offered to trade bikes so we could test drive each other's rigs! I'm still chuckling over the idea of jumping on his high-powered dirt bike (I was wearing a skirt at the time!) but I love that my bike turned into a conversation starter between me and someone I would probably never have the opportunity to visit with. It was a fun exchange!
Discovering Greece: Watercolour Painting Adventures with Angela Fehr and The Blue Walk Angela Fehr Watercolour 2024-08-09 | I visited Greece for the very first time in May of this year and I want to share an overview of our experience with you. This video includes an interview with Jeannette & Suzy, owners of The Blue Walk, and I really enjoyed talking with them about why they curate and guide these small-group walking tours and the benefits of seeing a new country off the tour bus and at a slower pace.

I'll be repeating this trip in May 2025, and adding Italy as a second option.

You can paint loosely too! Watercolor Painting from Intuition: 30 minute demonstration Angela Fehr Watercolour 2024-07-26 | It's easy to feel defined by our limitations in art, but true freedom comes in letting yourself feel free to simply love the process, look for the beauty and trust that growth will come with time. Taking time to paint without a specific plan is one way of developing good instincts for composition and design, and I recommend it be a part of your painting practice on a regular basis. I paint an intuitive exploration painting at least once a week and many of these never turn into anything amazing, but they serve a purpose of setting my intention for a painting session, awakening my curiosity, prompting experimentation and risk-taking, and helping me observe watercolor and become more responsive during the painting process.

What happens when you pair Art & Travel? Unpacking travel watercolor workshops. Angela Fehr Watercolour 2024-06-14 | Does taking a travel art workshop help you to grow as an artist? What if your workshop doesn't include studio time - what will you learn on the go as you visit new places? How does a travel art workshop compare with a studio workshop? I'm sharing a look at travel workshops after my recent trip to paint en plein air in Greece, and I'm going to walk you through the differences in the two types of art workshop that I teach and what you can expect to learn in these very different settings. Additionally, I'm going to share info on my upcoming travel workshops and a bit of a look at what happened when 16 watercolor painters met in Greece to paint, eat and see the sights!

What do art & travel have in common? Talking Greece with the Blue Walk Angela Fehr Watercolour 2024-06-13 | Next week I'll be sharing a longer look at my trip to Greece and the entire interview with Jeannette Candau & Suzy Schutz of the Blue Walk, but I couldn't wait to share this little gem from our conversation as we talk about the inevitably of travel taking you out of your comfort zone and what this teaches us. Art and travel are connected in this; often as artists we feel like if we're uncomfortable, we're doing something wrong, but this couldn't be further from the truth! Discomfort is necessary for growth and can be welcomed. I'm teaching in Greece again next year! Join me in Greece, or Lake Como, Italy, spring 2025.

How-To: Mounting Watercolor on Wood Panel (2024 UPDATE) Angela Fehr Watercolour 2024-05-24 | I first posted a tutorial on how to mount a watercolor painting on a birch panel back in 2016, and it's become a much more widespread practice in the past few years. My process for mounting a painting on panel has changed a bit over the years, so I can ensure a better outcome, and I'm sharing those changes in this video. Supplies Needed: (When you purchase using these links, I get a small commission.

Making great art is like getting struck by lightning? Conversation between Ian Roberts & Angela Fehr Angela Fehr Watercolour 2024-04-26 | We all hope to make great art, but how can you know if what you are making has the potential to be great? Can you reconcile yourself to the idea that you might consider yourself lucky to make only one or two truly great paintings in your lifetime? If you truly can't identify your own greatest work, how can you commit to painting and find joy in the practice of art? Ian Roberts @IanRobertsMasteringComposition and I talked about some of these ideas in a recent conversation and I wanted to share a piece of that conversation with you.

Design & Freedom in Art & Watercolour: Frozen Waterfall Angela Fehr Watercolour 2024-04-24 | Full video series; new lessons added monthly: heartledartist.com/courses/heart-led-artist-journeyThe Heart-Led Artist Journey is not about learning to paint like me; it's designed to help you find freedom to paint the way you were uniquely designed to. As I model my own artistic journey and the principles that inform it, and how I teach myself how to grow in skill and expression, you will be shown principles and exercises to apply to your own practice in a way that suits your learning style, interests and approach to art. There is a time for copying other artists; it's a great way to learn techniques. But when you are ready to start stepping into your own identity as an artist, there's no better way than with a strong mentor; one who opens up their practice with humility and generosity, while allowing you to find your own definition of what your art is meant to be.

Supplies for a Portable Watercolor Travel Kit: Guide for Angela Fehr watercolour workshops Angela Fehr Watercolour 2024-02-12 | What watercolour painting supplies are best for travel, especially if you plan to be painting en plein air - on location? Here is what I bring when I travel to art workshops. This kit will fit in a backpack or carryon luggage and is light enough to carry easily. It's not better to overpack; while you think you want all those extra supplies, it's going to take you longer to set up and take down your materials, and weigh a lot more, and you'll end up painting less if you bring too much stuff.This is the kit I bring, the basics fit in a 9x12 inch pouch and I add some extra paper when I plan to paint a lot. I have brought this kit to Italy, England, to Prince Edward Island, Arizona and hiking in my home area as well, and I treasure the memories my watercolour sketchbooks hold. Links below are affiliate links. When you place an order you help sponsor this channel. Thank you!Paint and palette: Bring the color palette you are accustomed to. I like this portable palette from Mijello for travel. LINK: amzn.to/3HCWuqcThe paint colors I’ll be using most will likely be these from my Daniel Smith dot card: dickblick.com/myaccount/blicku/hxxdx2g5wmruxAussie Red GoldCarmineCobalt Teal BlueCobalt Violet DeepGreen GoldHematite Burnt Scarlet GenuineLavenderMars YellowMoonglowNickel Azo YellowOpera PinkPhthalo TurquoiseQuinacridone SiennaRose of UltramarineSodalite GenuineVenetian RedVerditer BlueZoisite Genuine...and Payne's Grey or Payne's Blue GreyManganese Violet from Schmincke: bit.ly/33Pm9XlLittle extra colours in my palette right now: Bloodstone by Daniel Smith Horizon Blue - HolbeinNOTE: If you are filling your palette with paint, please try to do this several days before you plan to travel, so that the paint has time to dry in the palette. And note that honey based paints (Sennelier and M Graham for example) do not set firmly and will often ooze during travel and make a huge mess. Glad Press & Seal wrap can help add another layer of protection to keep wet paint from spilling in your palette.Brushes: your favorite brushes (I like round natural brushes or soft synthetic with long, flexible bristles, but a variety of brushes is helpful for making different marks.) Travel brushes can be nice although if you have a good brush roll for travel, full size brushes don’t take up much more room than travel brushes. The brushes in this video are made by Rosemary & Co:rosemaryandco.com/watercolour-brushes/travel-brushesI use the R2 and R9 brushes from this travel line. My favourite Escoda Versatil #10 rigger: bit.ly/3txbugaPaper: You can keep it as simple as a sketchbook, but if you paint quickly like me, it's nice to have multiple options that fit in a backpack. I will be bringing a couple of watercolor sketchbooks:My favourite Etchr Perfect Sketchbook Limited Edition: etchrlab.com/products/tps-signature-series-2023-cold-press9x12 Kilimanjaro Watercolor Paintbooks: cheapjoes.com/kilimanjaro-original-bright-white-watercolor-paintbooks.htmlHahnemühle Watercolor Blocks: bit.ly/444JdARor a good supply of artist quality, 100% cotton paper in about 9x12 inches. The main reason for bringing both sketchbooks and paper is that while one painting is drying, I can work on another piece of paper without smearing the first painting. Arches watercolour paper at Blick Art Materials: bit.ly/3G0O2i7Water containers: 1-2 water containers or collapsible cupsamzn.to/3vqYteLPainting board or support to tape or clip your paper to. I use corrugated plastic (cor-plast) cut slightly larger than my paper. I bring two - I can sandwich my paper in between the cor-plast and keep it smooth and clean while it’s in my suitcase. Cor-plast boards: amzn.to/3TRg0aaPaper towelsMasking tapeBulldog clips (to hold down paper when painting outdoors)Pencils, pens for sketching. I like an assortment of mark-making tools to help me feel playful when I’m sketching in a new place. Easel: (OPTIONAL) The En Plein Air Pro is my personal favourite for watercolour. Easy to set up and durable. bit.ly/3XxlzdBIf you prefer to sit when you paint, rocks can get uncomfy! Packing a folding stool (some camping stools have a zippered case and strap for carrying) might be a good idea for rural locations (i.e. locations without a cafe on site!). Want to travel with me?

Literal to Abstract Watercolour Landscape Demonstration: Angela Fehr for Opus Art Supplies Angela Fehr Watercolour 2023-12-20 | This is the full recording of the livestream demonstration by Angela Fehr for Opus Art Supplies, originally aired on Zoom, December 15 2023.@opusartsupplies invited me to share a demonstration of my watercolour landscape painting process. In this demo I'm sharing the open-ended process that I use to create intuitive, abstracted landscape paintings. I'm using a "whole package" reference photo in this session, which creates its own kind of tension and you'll see here just how difficult it can be to let go of expectations and create a painting that carries its own kind of life and expression. This conversation about process and finding space for your artist's identity and voice alongside your growth in skill and technique is the focus of my online courses at heartledartist.comThe new course intake for the 4 week course, the Heart-Led Artist Pathway, starts January 3, 2024.

If youre discouraged by your art, you need to hear this! Angela Fehr Watercolour 2023-11-24 | Do I have what it takes to make good art? Am I good enough to be an artist?How can I paint with confidence and freedom? Watch your self-talk when you paint! Phrases like "good enough," "perfect," and "failure" can be discouraging and self-limiting when there is so much happening during an artist's process. If you're making mistakes, you are learning. If you're painting, you're building skill in technique. And if you're painting to earn someone else's approval, you're going to struggle to find your own voice and feel confident in your style and practice.

What if I fail? Confronting my deepest artist fears Angela Fehr Watercolour 2023-10-24 | I'm launching a new course this week and it feels like a huge risk.

"What if I fail?" has no power over you if you've already committed fully to something.

Two big questions changed my art forever. For the better! Angela Fehr Watercolour 2023-10-23 | What if no one cares about my art?What if I can never be as good at art as I dream of being? These two questions were HARD questions to face in my art practice, but they also brought me to a place of freedom and radical self-expression that I couldn't have found with going to that place of rejection and discouragement. I believe that what happens in your head is going to impact what comes out of your paintbrush. That's why I'm 100% committed to teaching artist mindset in my brand new school, The Heart-Led Artist.

What you can learn by painting Imaginary Landscapes Angela Fehr Watercolour 2023-07-30 | I often start a landscape painting without referring to a reference photo. It offers an opportunity to draw upon my memory, my technique and the structures of composition and design and this makes all my paintings stronger! In this short video, I'm looking at a few recent paintings and talking about how they inform each other, what my goals and strategy were for the paintings and how I use this knowledge to grow as an artist.Leave a comment below and let me know if you ever start a painting without using a reference photo or having a firm idea of where you will end up. It's not a bad strategy and it can teach you a lot!The color evaluator I use is this one: (Amazon affiliate link) amzn.to/47amu86Have you enjoyed this series of #worldwatercolormonth daily videos?

Pro Tips for using Social Media to market your art! An ethic you can work with. Angela Fehr Watercolour 2023-07-29 | More important than what social media platform to choose, what kind of images to share, what your weekly schedule for promotion should be, is the ability to share your WHY with your audience and build relationships. My experience has been that social media growth is much more about consistency than "viral" growth if you want to build a loyal following, an audience of your best collectors.

Pit Stop! A Fun Studio (Bathroom) Tour Angela Fehr Watercolour 2023-07-27 | Creativity speaks a multitude of languages! For #worldwatercolormonth I'm posting a new video every day in July. Today it's a little different, I'm walking you into my studio restroom, showing off the design skills of my carpenter husband. Wade built my studio top to bottom and he put a LOT of input into every aspect of the design - he has great taste! For the bathroom, he had full design vision for the space and I let him run with it. The gas station theme was a fun outcome! At one point, I had painted the bathroom wall yellow, and tried a "Venetian plaster" effect with terracotta rub-on texture. It wasn't working, and as we both looked at it and thought about what to do instead, we spoke simultaneously, "STRIPES!" It was a great moment of creative synchronicity. One reason I wanted to share this video was of the way it speaks to caring about craftsmanship, that creativity is really a focus on making beautiful even small, overlooked elements and moments. I thrill with connection to creativity when I see someone who cares enough to invest intention into whatever they are doing, and this kind of caring should be celebrated, called out and honoured.

How art has helped me grow over the past year...and beyond. Angela Fehr Watercolour 2023-07-24 | The last year has been a struggle for me on a personal level, and as I've gone through this season of heart change, I've been thankful for the lesson's I've learned through my art practice. I often say that "watercolour lessons are life lessons," and this has borne out as I've faced some truths I'd been avoiding, and let go of some baggage I've carried for too long. I'm thankful for the gift art has been in teaching me to be courageous and willing to be vulnerable. It's a growth process that will be continuing, lifelong.

How to Pull a Watercolor Painting Together Angela Fehr Watercolour 2023-07-21 | I believe that every painting I create draws upon the toolbox of strategies I've filled over the years. With every painting session, techniques were refined and further tools for creating an interesting, impactful watercolor painting were discovered. And that toolbox has come in mighty handy over the years!Today, when I paint, I rely on all the strategies that have been internalized, a sort of muscle memory for painting that doesn't take logical thought as much as intuitive guidance. The idea of creative flow that is drawn upon to inform the techniques and tools I have at my disposal. All through #worldwatercolormonth I've been using the same reference photo, adding my knowledge of the scene to my store of creative inspiration, and today I'm carrying on with that pattern, painting the prompt of FRAGMENT as the practice of assembling the pieces of what I've done in the past, what I know how to do, and what I want to learn and do better - all of these things come together and that's what makes every painting unique!My friends on YouTube are participating in today's #worldwatercolormonth2023 painting prompt as well for the #worldwatercolormonthvideochallenge Use this link to see what they posted today! youtube.com/hashtag/worldwatercolormonthvideochallengeThe World Watercolor Month shop is open until July 31!

Hung up on Framing? Tips for Framing Watercolor Paintings. Angela Fehr Watercolour 2023-07-20 | I'm posting a new video daily for #worldwatercolormonth Today we're going behind the scenes to tackle the problem of framing finished watercolor paintings. Because watercolor is painted on paper, it needs protection, and this is why most watercolor paintings are framed under glass, with a mat and backing board. I also enjoy a more contemporary look and method of mounting watercolor paper on a wood panel, sealing with a wax & resin compound. This makes it easier to hang the painting alongside paintings on canvas or panel and removes the glare of glass. My video showing how I mount a painting on a wood panel is here: youtube.com/watch?v=XHeDltkj9_MMy video on cutting matboard is here: youtube.com/watch?v=59DR9KtDxbUThe bulk frames I mention in this video are from @opusartsupplies - bit.ly/3ObbW16

A Painting Disaster led to my Biggest Breakthrough! Watercolor Inspiration from Angela Fehr Angela Fehr Watercolour 2023-07-18 | For #worldwatercolormonth I'm posting a new video every day in July! Today I want to share a clip from a recent workshop, where I tell the story of how a well-intentioned taxi driver caused a disaster...that then led to my favourite painting of the year! The lesson here is that there is always an opportunity to see from a new perspective, and when you're in the middle of a disaster, taking a risk is a better response than giving up, panicking or losing it!

Working with Black in Watercolor: Make Stunning Darkest Darks Angela Fehr Watercolour 2023-07-16 | I want to share a few strategies for working with dark values in watercolor. Sometimes the large dark areas can look flat and boring in a painting, but with watercolor we have many options for adding interest to a large passage of dark color. In this video I share an exercise for practicing dark values and patterns as well as an imaginative landscape that starts with a creative dark stroke and draws out from there.

Color mixing neutrals in watercolor: Getting Good Mud Angela Fehr Watercolour 2023-07-13 | For today's #worldwatercolormonth daily video, I'm answering a question I get asked pretty frequently - "why don't my neutrals look as pretty as yours?" Mixing complementary colors to get "mud" is a wonderful way of bringing some quiet, complex neutrals to your painting. They will make the pure colors look more vibrant and create lovely transitions between more saturated hues. Mixed neutrals can also help unify your color palette and make your painting more harmonious, but there is a little bit of finesse that can help you create lovely neutrals that don't look flat. If you're learning watercolor technique, don't lose sight of your inner artistic style! It's easy to get so focused on painting correctly that you forget to invite your inner voice to express itself in your art. My online watercolor course for beginners, Learn Watercolor the Heart-Led Way, is designed to put your artistic voice first, while also helping you learn watercolor techniques that will make your paintings sing.

How can I know if my painting is any good? How to critique your art. Angela Fehr Watercolour 2023-07-12 | It's one thing to look at a painting and estimate how well it matches the reference photo, but if my goal isn't photo-realism, how can I tell if my abstract or semi-abstract painting is any good? I'm sharing a new video every day for #worldwatercolormonth ! Subscribe to my channel so you don't miss an episode!When it comes to loose watercolor, opinions are going to be all over the place as to whether a painting is successful or not. Some artists will insist that good design or composition is the number one thing you should look for when you are evaluating a painting's success. I disagree. You have only to look at contemporary art for the last hundred years to know that there are many paintings that were created with different goals than merely good design. You are free to make decisions about the success of your work based on more intuitive criteria - on your own reaction to the work and whether it satisfies your desire for self-expression. This is a hard subject to talk about because people will read that last paragraph and think I am advocating for an "anything goes" kind of ethic that casts aside ALL standards of excellence in art. I'm not. But I would argue that an educated artist - one who spends time viewing a diverse range of art, who thinks deeply about what emotion they want to convey in their work and commits to pursuing that - is an artist who will hold high standards for their work, even if composition isn't the first priority. While I don't prioritize composition in my work, I am always thinking about how a viewer will experience my painting (that includes composition) and I am unwilling to settle for less than a strong emotional response when I view my own paintings. This is my first criteria for whether I have created something of value to my body of work or not.Visit my web site for a download that will help guide you in your own creative success and a link to my current workshop schedule: angelafehr.com

Mastering Mark Making & Brush Handling in Watercolor Angela Fehr Watercolour 2023-07-10 | Do you make space in your art practice to develop your brush handling? In this video for #worldwatercolormonth I'm demonstrating an exercise I do frequently; no limits, intuitive mark making to help me develop my brush handling instincts and create strategies and new marks that are vital and interesting. One thing I thought was interesting was that the marks I describe in this video as "amateurish" (I actually prefer the term "unsophisticated") are actually my favourite marks in the entire painting. Even though they aren't marks that look skilled and nuanced, they have an energy and strength that adds a lot to the painting. So I try to have a mindset of welcoming even the marks that initially look "ugly" to me. You never know how your opinion will change!Supplies in this video (some links are sponsored links, thank you for supporting my channel!)From Daniel Smith - Watercolor Sticks - order from Blick Art Materials: bit.ly/3XwjQVU- Opera Pink- Cobalt Teal Blue- New GambogeDaniel Smith Watercolor Paint: bit.ly/3G1WBZZ- Opera Pink- Cobalt Blue- Benzimidazalone YellowSennelier Turquoise Green: order on Blick Art Materials: bit.ly/2DOmNemBrushes: SO MANY!Escoda #10 Rigger - my favourite supplier is Jackson's Art bit.ly/3txbugaAlso available from Blick Art Materials: bit.ly/Rigger10#4 Quill brush from Princeton: bit.ly/44nGmCRCheap Joe's #1 Loose Goose Dagger Striper: bit.ly/2ls9rZm20 mm flat brush - Da Vinci Forte Mottler - bit.ly/30ZhELmAnd finally, my beautiful handmade brush from Lebenzon.
