    Love it! It’s wonderful to watch you explain the process. I would love to see more like this.
    Very helpful to see how you build the layers, also like the way you explain when you let the paper dry. Adding a limb at the direction change Brilliant! Never heard that before. This was worth watching just to see how you did the trees. Really enjoyed this. Thanks.

      Thanks Sue, trees are fun and take a definitive touch - you have to go Mr. Miyagi on them. :)

    Wow. This is great. I will admit there were a couple of times when zoomed in when you added something or put in some color and I was thinking... hmm. But when you back up and see the full sheet it made sense and looked right. I think the thing I've learned the most from watching your videos is the picking. The limited amount of watercolor I've done, I didn't know of this technique so I really appreciate your lessons. Thanks for sharing your work.

      I like throwing down unexpected colors when doing a demo for my in-person students just to see their reactions. They are very timid about color and are shocked when I throw something down they didn't expect. Thanks for watching.

    Just bumped into your channel. What a pleasure it is to watch a master painter at work! I was glued to the screen when you painted the brown earth- it almost looked like Chinese brushwork- and the trees are gorgeous, in a dry, leafless kinda way haha. So creepy and Halloween style. Thanks! Subscribed! Want to see more and learn, as an intermediate WCist.

    Great video! Do you spray your paints on the palette before you start painting?

      I don't spray, but I add a few drops of water into the wells of color. I let them sit for a few minutes before I begin and let them rehydrate.
