Eric, You are a great artist and a kind and thoughtful man. I so appreciate your generosity in sharing your skills with us all and your inspiring words. Thank you and God Bless.
"Just because something is lit by the sun doesn't mean it has a light value." I have struggled with this for over two decades and that simple statement suddenly made it click. Thank you.
Your videos are always, "just right." I appreciated the side-by-side examples that clearly demonstrated your topic here. It was very helpful. Thank you.
Eric, thank-you for your clear instruction of how to rend light. By demoing the same scene side-by-side under 2 different light conditions it was by far the best explanation of the nuanced techniques I have watched. Also, in the sunset version, your approach to save the over worked steam by glazed over the sky at the point in the 3rd layer when the paper is almost dry, is an invaluable lesson.
Dear Mr Yi Lin. I will thank you so much for making these tutorials that I love to watch. However I use to love to paint myself, but my desire went away due to Mr Putins disgusting attack and war against the friendly, and democratic Ukraine some ten days ago. All my happiness fell flat to zero. Anyway. It feels very good to see you paint, and listen to your beautiful voice that radiates love. I needed that. I will re-watch many more of your shows. Many thanks, and love from a swedish old man.
Hiya Eric, Thanks very much for a superb demonstration and great advice, I love both paintings but particularly the early morning version. Take care and stay safe and well.
Thank you very much for this very useful tipps. One thing I 'd like to mention: as in the sunset picture the light is shining from down behind the train the steam should be lighter beliw and much darker in the upper part, I mean? Love your tutorials 🌺🌈
Hi Eric. This is very informative and thoughtful. I wonder why it is so important to “always connect your middle values”? Any insight you could share? Or a video where you explain why it is so important? Thank you. This is beautiful.
Brilliant informative video as always. I am considering enrolling in your course because of how amazing your teaching methods are on here. And I've actually just emailed you regarding it.
Eric, I have just discovered your channel, your teaching is clear and concise and I am learning lots of valuable lessons to take away. I love your calm and generous manner, your videos are so relaxing to watch. Thank You.
Hi Eric..Loved the demo...comparing the paintings made understanding the concept so much easier...Thank you for sharing this with all of us..stay blessed
You are a great teacher! I'm Spanish and as you speak quiet and clear I understand everything very well!!! I'm learning a lot with your vídeos. Thanks you very much!!!
Amazing tips. I do put too many details early. Was nice to see u keep it very simple. Question for you, is there an app or software that can turn a picture into 3 shades of grey, so we can better visualize what would be highlights, mid and darker tones.
Hi Eric, thank you for showing this two different versions! That was really interesting. I have another question: I saw in your Insta the wonderful painting of the young lady you did with procreate. It would be nice if you can show this painting process also in your yt channel. To add a nft for the painting is easy or difficult? Greatings from Germany Angelika
One question, I am have just started learning Watercolor and not much experience in Drawing. When ever i draw i use to add grid before i start drawing. say i add vertical and horizontal lines in 25, 50 75% and i start drawing to see the actual center and where object sits is this good to do it.... in beginning to draw ? When i get soft copy of image i draw this grid in photoshop Guide lines and in my paper and start draw.
Painting is not just about displaying the end result but also the journey and thought process behind it.

I ❤️ your Bob Ross Funko in the background. I have it, too!
you are a great teacher 👨🏫👍
The smoke in the sunset painting came together like magic. Amazing
Brilliant! Maestro!🏵
I've heard values explained before but this is just so good!! I had a real light bulb moment watching this! 🤯
Your videos are always, "just right." I appreciated the side-by-side examples that clearly demonstrated your topic here. It was very helpful. Thank you.
Very important to think about light and shadow. Watercolor will always be a mystery but these tutorials uncover it slowly.

Very nice..I'm terrible about saving white space or light space.
takes a bit of confidence to "not" paint something at times :)
I bought your course and I love it! Please help me paint seagulls
