Top 5 You Tube Video Subscriptions for Aspiring Artists

Lachri Fine Arts has a fantastic YouTube channel. Lisa, the artist behind Lachri, posts videos four times a week. Don’t know how she gets any artwork done, but she manages…BRILLIANTLY. Lisa’s videos are clear, concise and to the point; she doesn’t waste your time with lots of b.s.
Weekly video schedule:
'Art Critiques' on Tuesdays
'Painting & Drawing Tutorials & Demos' on Wednesdays
'Social Media Tips for Artists' on Thursdays(LOVE this)
'Artist Vlogs' on Weekends

Really enjoyed trying Lisa's tutorial on water droplets

The Painting and Drawing Channel is sponsored by the SAA and has lots of great programs including ‘A Splash of Paint’ where episodes are separated into parts and cover five different topics. A fantastic older program is ‘Fraser and Friends’ where Fraser visits different artists and paints with them. You can find these programs listed on the paintinganddrawingchannel.

Will Kemp Art School - if you’ve been reading my blog regularly you will know that I’ve done the cherry painting and I even had a go at creating a YouTube video. That was not easy!!!! To view Will's videos, either go to his website or search in YouTube for his videos.

The Frugal Crafter by Linsay Weirich has watercolour videos of plants and birds along with other craft stuff. Linsay is currently creating a video a day but a lot are more journal related. From a past video I created a really pretty hibiscus;  watercolour paintings that I do on my own never come out as vibrant.

The Art Tutor is a new channel to me and so far so good. I watched a video on drawing negative space and have been practicing it…sorry not good enough to post. I’ve had lessons on this topic before, but this video helped me to reconcile the negative with the positive space.
