    Finding the beauty within the paint! It's like watching a wood carver finding the beauty within the wood... I love your technique.

    Wow. "If you're not willing to fail at this painting, you're not going to discover much." Thank you.
    Absolutely gorgeous painting. You are a natural-born, excellent teacher. Thank you for sharing your phenomenal knowledge.

    Oui! Très beau!! Même si je ne comprends pas tout ce que vous dites. Il y a avant tout un choix soigneux de belles couleurs, puis de la tendresse, de la méditation, de spontanéité, vraiment... Je suis conquise. MERCI pour ce moment de pur bonheur

    This method of painting with watercolours is unlike any I've watched before. Another commenter below said that beginners get bogged down and don't know how to move forward. That's so right. Mostly because beginners are always trying in class or at home, to produce a recognisable "thing" from a photo or a still life or whatever.
    I look at this type of work and realise that imagination is actually so much better. All beginners should be taught to paint in this way. Given, perhaps, a colour list and told to just play with it.

    I dabbled in watercolor in art school and loved it, but I didn’t have time to really get into it as it was not my focus. I stumbled upon your channel by accident and I am so glad I did. You’ve inspired me to invest my time in learning it again. Your videos are full of so much helpful information and skill. I’ve ordered my supplies and can’t wait to jump on in with it.
    Thank you for taking the time to make these, I hope they keep on coming.

    This is probably the eighth or ninth time I’ve watched this and it’s still informative! I put your videos on when I’m doodling and all of a sudden i find myself attempting a spontaneous piece! Completely your fault and i totally thank you!! I just hope that i can “see” the shapes as easily as you appear to someday! How do you lay the colors down for the base so readily? That’s always where i get hung up, i spend too much time doing that and then it stops being spontaneous!? Thanks again, i hope you’re well my friend 👍🪠🧮

    You introduced me to Silver Brush Black Velvet. What a brush! I now have a #4, 6, 8, 10 round. Amazingly, the #10 is my favorite because I can get such a fine line with it, it beats out the #4. I look forward in purchasing the larger sizes soon. P.S. I LOVE your vids! So inspiring.
