I needed this lesson badly. And I am so glad to find such a great content for free on your channel. Thank you so much for helping me be better in painting. Had I had not found your video,I would have stopped painting due to discouragement of making pathetic paintings. But, thanks to you for saving my passion and airing it!💙🦋🎶
I've spent a lot of money on many different painting classes. I have to say your free lessons are a lot better than any of them! Thanks so much for sharing your time, knowledge and talent!
I want to retire so I can paint more! My sister has always been the quilter and seamstress and paints beautiful paint by number photos and started doing that with her but paint by number was too tedious. Cinnamon and Clive5art have shown me how to create. I love you both for sharing your craft and bringing into a whole other world that is a wonderful zone to be in. Thank you
This whole program is fantastic!! Never seen an artist go so in depth on teaching. Painting with you for 2 years but always something to learn and review!! Can't wait for color mixing!! Hated that when I started love learning it now. Thank you so much!!!
I feel like I just Hit The JACKPOT in finding YOU!!! I'm very new to painting (couldn't draw a circle or straight line if my life depended on it) but I'm loving the relaxation and inspiration I'm finding in all of these 'Fluid Hues'!!! Thank you for sharing all of this knowledge, I can't wait to watch the next video!
Thank you I have watched this series several times over, trying to learn, I learn something each time and enjoy watching you, I have still to start the paintings
Thanks Sherpa!! I’m going back to the beginning with this and starting the paintings this week. I feel so prepared now that I have watched the classes. Thanks to John as well !! For the comic relief when things get to heavy , as well as your quick visual support 🎥
I enjoyed this lesson so much. You are amazing at explaining and demonstrating, so many key tricks here to "the load", crucial to happy painting! Thank you again Cinnamon and John for your devotion to teaching! You're always reinventing how to bring the BEST ART CLASSES EVER!!♥
This and the techniques videos are so full of information to learn and practice. I love that these are here to refer back to, as we start our paintings - if I struggle to match your results, I can rewatch these, and figure out how to get better results. Thanks to Cinnamon, John, the whole team, and all the patrons who make these courses and videos possible.🤗😘
Thank you so so so much you are a blessing only felt this comfortable to learn art with my middle school teacher,reminds me of her your way of teaching with patience and luv , I went to high school for art neverrr felt comfortable almost gave up after graduating came back years after and find you !!! Thank you so so much
BRUH I've been using all brushes the same way without knowing pressure is even a thing... it helps so much with edges! Crazy. Twist wise I just learnt this yesterday. I'm good with dotting but it seems like I need to practice the leaf/tear method. It can make out feathers too. And I finally know what that edge brush is for... I've been neglecting it but now I see that the smooth and clean, sexy stroke I'm always trying to make was in that very brush... Also the crockety branches are so beautiful and give me Japanese vibe. The lavender and poppy flowers made me smile and brought me joy. Thanks a lot!! Your energy both is cosmic.
I am so happy that I found you. I’ve been painting for a little while with my boys twins with autism who have natural, artistic ability we’ve been painting together I can’t afford classes, but I bought two of your books and I love how you simplify it for everyone thank you so much.
I just found you and I couldn't be happier!! You are by far the best teacher EVER!!! I'm going to binge watch/learn everything this weekend and then, then i'm going to make my own work!
Cinnamon & John - I am soooo grateful to have found you! I am truly truly a beginner and have learned soooo much! Love these classes. One HUGE thing I have discovered from you is layering - lay down the first outline then the base/layer coat….add as you go along. I was under the impression that you had to get it right almost immediately…..NO, you taught me you just get the first part done then slowly add in the highlights and details. Thank you thank you. (Note, this is grief therapy for me as my husband just passed 7 weeks ago and this really helps me)
I don't care what anyone says; Pumpkin Latte is fantastic! Last winter I concocted it until I found the perfect recipe. I take a 15 ounce can of pure pumpkin, pour it into a mixing bowl. Add a can of pure coconut milk with fat. Sweeten with maple syrup to your liking. Don't forget salt! I then make a mix of nutmeg, cinnamon, clove & allspice, salt & vanilla, add it to pumpkin, maple & coconut & mix well. Then I pour it into a container & use it for many servings of coffee. Most of the time I go over the top and finish off with a huge topping of whipped cream:))
Thank you SO much for this video. I love you and John's banter. I am so excited to watch the color mixing video again and then see what my cat looks like. I'm looking forward to doing all 10 of your beginner paintings, and then start on your 1 hoots. Yay!
Best teacher ever! I did one painting last year on my own that turned out pretty good, but I love the idea of learning the proper techniques. Starting over with the right tools. Thank you so much!
I'm left-handed and I've learned most things by sitting across from a right-hander. It's a challenge, but we lefties are challenged DAILY lol. One thing you do have to know is, we tend to start a painting on the R side of the canvas and work left, so we don't lay our hand in the paint.
I'm just beginning with india ink and brushes, and I find this video applicable and useful. I've been looking for something like this for awhile. Thanks!
Love the way you teach, with each video I watch and practice I become just a little bit better. Thank you so much for theses lessons. On another note I love your website so much information.
Thank you Cinnamon! You are so generous in helping us absolute beginners and it is very much appreciated. I am left handed and although I am proud to be so, it does make learning stuff more difficult. It is a right handed world generally and us lefties naturally adjust. But the mirror idea sounds good so I must try that sometime. Thank you again for your lessons and your encouragement. Mandy from the UK x
Im a videographer and video producer and im learning painting and have been learning so much! But i just wanted to say i love the way you utilize multiple cameras and edit all the footage together as one shot. Its well done. Thanks for this lesson by the way learned a few new things! 😁
I started painting with you a couple of years ago. You never seem to amaze me. I keep going back to the beginning to refresh my memory. (LOL, my memory is short anyway!) 🤗
Thank you so much for the detailed lesson! I have taken a few local paint classes, which are very enjoyable However, they do not give the basic details found in your lessons. With the knowledge you teach in your classes, I will feel more confident and not so overwhelmed ❤️ I am looking forward to watching more of your classes. 😊
I have been struggling to learn on my own for over a year. This taught me a couple things better than before. I so appreciate these videos and it was timely for me. Some I already knew, but it is good to see anyhow.
I started painting about 6 months ago and almost quit because I felt like I wasn't improving enough until I watched your beginner videos!(I jumped in thinking I could watch and paint just like you or Michelle)! You are such an amazing teacher and I can't express how grateful I am for your videos. Painting is so relaxing for me and I couldn't do it without your help so THANK YOU!God Bless You! COULD YOU DO SOMETHING RELATED TO WINNIE THE POOH? I just became a grandmother and that's my daughters fave and I may never be good to do POOH without your help lol. I understand if there are issues or reasons why you couldn"t but if you can I would be so grateful.
These tutorials are great. Very informative and entertaining. You both make it seem so seamless that you hide the fact that a great deal of work has gone into the production of it all. Kudos to all you’ve done.
I am 77 and just started painting with my granddaughter. She is very good and I am a beginner. I found your channel and I am loving your knowledge, skill of teaching and your humor. Thank you so much for sharing your love of painting. 💕💕💕💕💕
Just keep practicing. One of our mods gets canvas paper and practices strokes and technigues over and over until she feels more comfortable. You can paint over canvas paper just like you do regular canvas and it makes it more fincially feasible to practice on. 💕
Dear Cinnamon this was so informative and looks so easy to follow for new beginners, but loved learning from you from the beginning of our time, loved your ArtSherpa Brushes, hope you can do that again, however always loves Simply Simmons and Silver Brushes, I know you will have much success with this beginning series, so amazing and FREE❤❤❤❤❤🎨🎨🎨🎨🎨🎨
I am a ambidextrous with strong left painter. I’m constantly frustrated and and my dyslexia taught me to change the paper angel to accommodate an exit or end of stroke. Please do more mirror shots. Your my Sherpa. Thank you.
So grateful for this course! THANK YOU! Can't wait to be able to support as a patron... It for now ... I keep practicing 😮. I've got a long way to go. Unable to add my image here but maybe on a real computer.
Hello! I am so glad to have found your videos as a new new beginner. Showing us how to apply the techniques is so valuable. As a lefty, I appreciate anything you might provide for tips and practices. Maybe a series of strokes using the mirror gizmo that John tried? Maybe cutting out the stroke section and offering it as a stand alone Lefty Stroke Exercise by re-filming in mirror format? Thank you Cinnamon and John for your expertise and approachability. I'm subscribing.
Its is Amazing to me when you mix colors 🤯 it looks like you are barely touching the paint and you end up with some thing so cool. When I do that I dipped all my brush in the paint and end up with a mess lol.
Art Sherpa, this is a jewel of a video and I can't thank you enough for taking the time to demonstrate all these techniques. I am now a subscriber and look forward to seeing all your classes. Thank you!

Your the only one who has taught me how to paint, for someone who’s never drawn anything but a stick person. Deeply loving it, and appreciate you.
Thank you for your lovely comment ❤️
I am so happy that I found you. I’ve been painting for a little while with my boys twins with autism who have natural, artistic ability we’ve been painting together I can’t afford classes, but I bought two of your books and I love how you simplify it for everyone thank you so much.
I love hearing about family who paint together. And my pleasure 🌺
I just found you and I couldn't be happier!! You are by far the best teacher EVER!!! I'm going to binge watch/learn everything this weekend and then, then i'm going to make my own work!
Toni Hasson Thank you I am so glad you had Fun :) Check out the next live stream its so cute ua-cam.com/users/TheArtSherpalive
Thank you so much Cinnamon. Your classes are precious!!!
I had to go back and watch this, as I was gone for the actual class... WONDERFUL, my flowers actually look like flowers!!
Cinnamon & John - I am soooo grateful to have found you! I am truly truly a beginner and have learned soooo much! Love these classes. One HUGE thing I have discovered from you is layering - lay down the first outline then the base/layer coat….add as you go along. I was under the impression that you had to get it right almost immediately…..NO, you taught me you just get the first part done then slowly add in the highlights and details. Thank you thank you.

Absolutely awesome and wonderful 😢cinnamon thank you so much sweetheart 😊🎉🎉🎉❤
Fantastic lesson, I know how to draw with pencil, but now you are teaching me to draw with paint which I found challenging before! Thank you!
This is awesome! It's wonderful to see how the different strokes can be used to paint actual things.
yep!
I don't care what anyone says; Pumpkin Latte is fantastic!
Last winter I concocted it until I found the perfect recipe.
I take a 15 ounce can of pure pumpkin, pour it into a mixing bowl.
Add a can of pure coconut milk with fat.
Sweeten with maple syrup to your liking.
Don't forget salt!
I then make a mix of nutmeg, cinnamon, clove & allspice, salt & vanilla, add it to pumpkin, maple & coconut & mix well.
Then I pour it into a container & use it for many servings of coffee.
Most of the time I go over the top and finish off with a huge topping of whipped cream:))
Exactly, I remember the classes with left hand strategies and methods. Chuckles thank you for sharing this wonderful session together ❤💜
Lorna J Bartlett Thank you I am so glad you had Fun :)
Thank you SO much for this video. I love you and John's banter. I am so excited to watch the color mixing video again and then see what my cat looks like. I'm looking forward to doing all 10 of your beginner paintings, and then start on your 1 hoots. Yay!
Thank you for teaching me so many things I didn’t know. ❤️👍🤗
Best teacher ever! I did one painting last year on my own that turned out pretty good, but I love the idea of learning the proper techniques. Starting over with the right tools. Thank you so much!
Wow, thank you!
This was so helpful, thank you! My husband got me my first paint set for Christmas. Im so excited to try!
This was a great class. Thanks for breaking it all down for us!!
Thank you for doing this, I watched the video and now I will rewatch and practice. I like to get the concept first then practice.
Yea! Half way there. I'm enjoying the process. 🧡🧡🧡
Good job!!

💚
The best tutorial for a beginner. Learning these basics is so important and helpful before diving into a huge landscape. Thanks a ton ❤️
So very welcome 🌺
I started painting with you a couple of years ago. You never seem to amaze me.
I keep going back to the beginning to refresh my memory.
(LOL, my memory is short anyway!) 🤗
Wow, thank you! The color Mixing class will be amazing
Wow! Replay 9/16.23. This is exactly what I need. Thank you
Thank you for teaching us these techniques.
Toothpicks work great for very small dots like distant stars.
This station is exactly what I've been looking for. Thank you so much. I wanted/needed bare basics. You are so appreciated ❤
MERCI pour toutes ces explications et utilisation des pinceaux
I am going through the replay, love the class. Going through them all as I can.
Gosh I really love the flowers section at the end there. Superb
Thank you so much for the detailed lesson! I have taken a few local paint classes, which are very enjoyable However, they do not give the basic details found in your lessons. With the knowledge you teach in your classes, I will feel more confident and not so overwhelmed ❤️ I am looking forward to watching more of your classes. 😊
Glad it was helpful! That is what I really hope for
I am strictly a left handed person and I follow you
Awesome, we have some very talented lefties who follow. 💛
Love watching you and practicing my strokes. You and John are an awesome team
Thank you so so much 💝
I was struggling with a painting of calla lillies. Thanks for this straightforward lesson. Just what I needed😊

Still loving your brushes, especially Goldeilocks 🎨🎨🎨

It’s good to try to not over paint your brush
I hit a jackpot 🎰 and that’s you!!! 💐💥
