Thank you, Ian! You're the only art teacher I've ever had. I've started selling my paintings, thanks to your videos and book. Most importantly, I've gone from a wannabe painter who deeply disliked her own art to a painter satisfied with her artistic path forward. There are no words to describe how grateful I am. Thank you. And god bless.
Thank you Ian for sharing your talent and experiences. You are a pleasure to listen to as you guide us toward being better painters. Merci.
❤
Thanks Ian for your great generosity. I have loved watching your videos and have learned much from them. Good luck and take care. Looking forward to your new communications.
Well I could not be more happy for you. Congratulations. It makes me happy to hear you are happy with your artistic path. Well done. All the best.
What a story of inspiration. I am happy for you and jealous at the same time. I hope to get to the point where I too can be satisfied with my own art. Good luck to you.
That's precisely where I am. At 74, I've never felt more drawn to the absolutely essential nature of silence and time alone in finding one's true work. I support you wholeheartedly in taking this step Ian. It says a great deal about your integrity as a teacher that you have created a continuing teaching resource to help aspiring painters, without thought of personal gain. A breath of fresh air at a time when everything that moves is deemed fit for commodification. You've more than earned your new direction. May it be as fruitful as you hope. Well done!
Thank you so much. At our age (I'm a couple of years younger) it's that "if not now when?'. All the very best to you.
You're leaving just when I found you!
Not to worry, I'll be reposting an old video each month and you can sign up to receive the 4 themed videos each month as well at ianroberts.com
All the best and hope you find them helpful.
"Warm, generous, kind audience" because YOU ARE. 🌈
Right on! :)
Thanks so much. It really has been amazing
Thank you Ian so much for imparting so much knowledge and good will. We are not worthy, but thanks for making us feel that we are! Good luck with your new endeavors. Yvonne
Oh Ian- when I saw that ‘Last video’’ comment, my heart sank because I love your videos and they’ve helped me so much! Thank you for doing this and I can’t wait to receive and see these incredibly helpful videos in the future. Good luck with your own artistic progress! Julie
thank you so much
Ian, we discovered you at the start of lockdown. You were such an important part of that strange time. We still follow you, and discuss you and your work regularly. Quite simply, you have become part of our day to day conversation and how we engage with our art. Thank you for being an encouraging and warm person. It always felt in those 2020/21 days that you were here with us. Take care. Best wishes Helen and Pete Brookes, Birmingham UK.
Thank you Ian. You have been a great teacher and art lover. Would love to get that email every month. 😍
Vineed
Thank you so much for your kind comment and your support Helen and Pete. All the very best
Thank you for all you've given to the UA-cam art community Ian 💗
Thank you so much
OMG, I was so scared by the thumbnail, afraid that something sad is happening.............now is's such a relief to see and hear your message. I wish you prosperity and succes in your art and thank you for all videos!
I hope so too!
Ian, you are tremendously generous offering free videos to people like me who are mere hobbyists. I am reminded to "make yourself available to the muse..." Your kindness and generosity is so beautiful in this clamorous world. May you listen to your muse in peace and quiet and leran much.
Agreed.
So beautifully said.
thank you so much for this kind comment
Dear Mr. Roberts, you will be sorely missed, but we all love you and what you have most generously shared with us as an online community of subscribers.
Not only have you given us insights into the artistic process, but also your musings touch a deeper core within us all as people learning to express ourselves through art.
The monthly themed video packages is a great idea. Even though my interest is in watercolour painting, your videos help me understand composition in a way I never imagined before. You are also a lovely, calm and sincere man who has my utmost respect. Thank you.
thank you so much for your kind comment and your support. All the best
This is another warm and appreciative message. I do believe I have been getting these incredibly helpful you tube videos by email for a number of years. I would like to share with you - I just completed a painting and at the end I said YES that is what Ian Roberts is talking about. I entered it in a local show and took second out of 88 entries. Thank you
Lynn, Congratulatons! What a great accomplishment. Well done. Glad the videos were helpful. With best wishes to us both on our artistic journey ahead.
Ian, From day “1” throughout the four years on UA-cam you never wavered once from your authentic creative self, expressing and sharing all that you know about painting, drawing and being an artist. I value every lesson I took and all of them have empowered me to take more risks as well as share what you have taught me whenever I can.
I respect your personal decision to honor your time needed to dive deeper into your artistic journey. It shows that there is always more to learn at any stage in our development. I wish you well and can’t wait to see what develops! Thank you!
Thank you very much!
ROBERT- I started my painting journey when covid hit. In the past 4 years you've helped me understand things that could take other artist years to grasp. I'm more a portrait painter now, however your lessons apply to the " structure " of art itself. Thank you for your everything you've shared with the community. It's people like you that make the world a better place given these uncertain times. Best of luck on your future endeavors
Thank you so much. I am so glad you have enjoyed my videos and are finding them useful. All the best
This is such a much needed video right now. I recently lost my job, and instead of rushing into looking for a new one, I decided to focus on my art, really push myself, improve the technique, and focus and fidning my voice. It's great to see a master artist taking some quiet time to focus on his art. Definetly will sign up to the email and will include Ian's lessons in my studying.
Do you know about the ART SCHOOL LIVE channel? ....It also is very helpful...
@@DavidSmith-kf3ey thank you so much. I just subscribed and will be watching!
thank you so much for your support
Ian, I’m short for words to tell you a thousand times thank you for all you have done and do for your followers on UA-cam. You are an unusual human being, generous, humble who is willing to to continue guiding us in the right path of Art. I began my oil painting journey with your book about composition, then another book and then your videos, together combined a golden guide filled with inspiration. Each time I watch a video, I find new information to help my painting. You will be missed dearly physically and temporarily but you will continuously be present in my heart and thoughts as an extraordinary master of composition! I wish you all the best and thanks again for gifting us with monthly challenges and new ways to continue improving. You are jut the best! Blessings, take care and be safe. Looking forward to continue the journey. ❤❤❤ At 68 soon to be 69 I will continue watching your videos over and over!
Thanks so much Crisalida. I appreciate your comments very much. My very best wishes for your continued artistic journey.
Your library of videos are a treasure. Thank you for them!
I completely understand and appreciate all you have done to grow my art practice. I only recently discovered in your channel and have been working my way through them. I look forward to your emails. Blessings to you and your wife.
Thank you so much. All the best
What a very heartfelt message Ian. Your courses have made all the difference for me. I so appreciate your kind, cerebral approach that has made a difference for so many of us. I totally understand this new direction you are going in and applaud you! All the best going forward!
thank you so much
I honor you and hope to see your new direction. Am so grateful for all I’ve learned from you.
Thanks Marti. Nice to hear from you. My very best wishes to you.
Your audience is kind and generous because you have been so kind and generous. You will be dearly missed. Good luck on your explorations and come back soon!
Thank you so much!
Wishing you all the best!!
Thank you so much. All the best
Oh my goodness, I've only just found you recently.... but I will also watch your advanced paintings with great interest. I've been drawing for as long as I can remember. My adoptive parents did not encourage my art. So I actually hid it from them. My dear husband eventually took pity on me and he and a friend bought me a box of Pelikan watercolours, with a few brushes and a watercolour pad, back in 1974. So my interest in colour started and I've never looked back. I use all media, but my go-to is watercolour. I am 77 years of age.
Well I am glad you are painting now! All my videos will be there if you want to watch them. They are not going anywhere and I will be reposting one every month. Best wishes.
So sorry to hear this! But you leave us a treasure in already existing videos, thank you for that… I “adopted” you as my teacher last year when I began drawing and painting, and still after all these months, when I look critically at something I have just created, I put on my Ian Roberts glasses and think, what could I have done differently?
Great teaching, great art… thanks for sharing both with all of us!
Delighted I could help. All the very best.
Oh no and I just discover your great videos today. Please comeback when you accomplish your art desires. I will be waiting for your come back, and absorbing knoledge from your videos.
Thanks a lot for your generosity to teach Art on line!!!
Dear Ian, I discovered you during the pandemic. Your videos helped me survive that troubled time by giving structure and beauty to life and painting. A million thanks for all your kindnesses to people whom you have never met but appreciate the unselfish gifts that you have given. Truly a special gift of generosity.
thank you so much
I have worked as a graphic designer for over 40 years. As I put away my digital tools I had the need to use my hands, pick up a brush, and smear some paint. I also needed to re-inform myself of things that became intuitive. Your clarity in presenting information has helped me to revision what was intuitive and to think in a different way. Thank you and all the best on igniting your own painting. I am sure you will be successful.
Me too!!
thank you so much
As a self taught painter, your UA-cam videos were a part of my ‘classroom’ studies and were so valuable! Wishing you a successful journey into your own growth!
Thank you so much
Thank you for giving your time and talent to UA-cam. May God be gracious to you and keep you from all harm .
Thank you my dear mentor John Eagle who passed away this last year loved all your videos and would send them to me. I believe you both were friends and he was always telling artists about you. ❤
I loved John. Came on early workshops in Provence 25 years ago. Always such a lovely man. All the best.
Thanks for all your help.Glad you’re not going for good! I wish you all the best with your adventures diving into your own art. ❤️👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Thank you so much. All the best
Большое спасибо, Ян! Вы - прекрасный человек с большой буквы! Вы ещё и добрый человек!
Ваши уроки были единственными, в которых говорилось ясно, чётко и честно!
Храни Вас и Вашу жену, Господи!
Thank you for your generosity. I first became acquainted with you through your book. I hadn't painted in 30 years. My sister was in treatment for cancer. During her sessions, I went walking in town, stumbled on a little art store and found your book. I haven't stopped painting since. I look forward to your videos each month and look forward to seeing where this journey takes you. Happy travels.
Nice story. All the best to you.
That is a good story and thank you for telling it to me. It makes me feel good I could helped in such a meaningful way. My very best wishes to you on your artistic journey.
Hello Sir, when I saw " my last video " , I felt my heart sinking...
You are a genuine teacher from whom I learnt a lot...
I wish you very best in your endeavor Sir.
thank you so much
Dear Ian, thank you also for your engagement in sharing your knowledge. I wish you the best in your new creative path. And thank you in advance for keeping us as your students by e- mail, I appreciate it. 🙏🏼Greetings from Mexico city! I hope one day there is the opportunity to take classes on site.
thank you so much
Oh! I’ve just discovered you!!!❤❤❤ I hope your channel will remain available! You are wonderful. Art is a personal and individual journey and you are a special teacher. Thank you ❤
Of course. The videos will still be there. Thank you so much
Good morning Ian [from down under, Melbourne, Australia],
May I say how grateful I have been to watch your videos and instructions and HAVE LEARNT AN ENORMOUS AMOUNT and will be forever indebted. I started to learn watercolour 4 years ago and your techniques and principles (composition etc) have been invaluable. You have been immensely generous with the free information that you have shared - very few artists do so. It was a blessing to discover you. No thank you can be enough.
Very sad that that you are going but I totally understand your position and agree with your decision. It is necessary for all artists to step back, take a break, regroup and re-energise. I am certain that you will be back in the near future and look forward to that.
Look forward to the themed videos that you will be sharing. Again so generous.
Wishing you all the very best .
Kind regards
Guy
Thanks so much!
My appreciation is beyond words, not only your clear teaching style, but your demeanor is so welcoming, as if you are a dear friend who will just walk in our door. Thank you for the grouping of videos you will curate each month, it will be something to inspire us to continue with our practice, and I look forward to seeing the direction your new creative journey takes you. All the very best. You have quite a loyal following, hopefully you will "pop in" during the future and let us know what you are working on.
Hi Patrice, thank you for your kind sense of my teaching style. I'm delighted you have enjoyed the videos. My very best wishes to you
Ian, good luck on your new journey🤙
This body of great teaching and inspiration that you’ve created is awesome and will undoubtedly live on (line) forever….
You Rock
Thanks so much!
Ian, it is YOU who have been unbelievably generous with your wisdom and encouragement. I have looked forward to every video and have tried to apply so much of what you've shared to my painting. For you to have thought of all of us first before embarking on the next step in your artistic journey is remarkable. You are one of a kind and I feel so fortunate to have participated in two workshops with you and now to have had you again in my life for the last 4+years through your videos. Thank you and God Bless!
So nice to hear from you Joan and thank you so much. My very best wishes to you on your artistic journey.
I am a fellow artist and understand your need for your deeper dive. The outcome will surprise you. Growth in art is great. Have fun!
Hello Ian, you are so sweet! I want to thank you for all your engaging, inspirational videos! I have learned so much! Enjoy your time painting and all your adventures! 🎨
Thank you so much. All the best
When I saw the email and video title my heart dropped! Now I am saying Whew! Just temporary, he will be back. I am loving the idea of grouping the videos into themes. Fantastic! You are my guru for composition like NO ONE else! Thank you for all you share and I hope you find your new muse without too much of an uphill climb. Your groupies all support you! 🎉
Thanks so much Alison. With best wishes.
Thank you for your generous time to teach us. One cannot blame you for stopping these videos and using the time to explore new directions for yourself to grow even more as an artist. I’ll miss you. Enjoy your new direction.
Thank you so much!
Dear Ian, This is an exciting new direction for you. Your videos, emails and courses have had such an impact on so many of us. Your generosity in sharing your ideas and experience in such a kind delivery is your secret sauce. Thank you . I wish you the best in your new exploration and quest for beauty internally and in the world. Linda
Thank you so much!
I love watercolor painting. I enjoyed watching your video on photographic composition. This was something no one talks about. Now I can see what I need in the image to keep the viewer, me or others, on the page. I now look at my images differently and I think that insight is a game changer for me. Enjoy your art. Teaching is hard. Doing videos is even harder. You have made a difference. Thank you.
Thank you so much!
So glad you have found a way you feel will support your own creative growth, while continuing to be a beacon to those of us who have learned so much from you. May your next chapter be filled with joy!
Thank you so much!
Dear Ian, your generosity and care for your followers is so kind. After painting for over 40 years, I was forced to quit. The solvents overtook my system. During that time, I feared loosing all the work and dedication I put into becoming accomplished. When I found your video's, your knowledge and caring kept me motivated to find my way back instead of giving up my passion. I have so much to thank you for and I understand your position very well. I am delighted to hear that you are taking care of your own career voyage and yet; you are allowing us to quietly join your adventure. I admire and respect your generosity and look forward to learning more from you. With kindest regard - Kathleen
HI Kathleen I am so glad my videos kept you motivated to continue. And my very best wishes to our continued artistic journey. All the best
I purchased your book and DVD, when they first came out so many years ago. Both helped me immensely, as have your UA-cam videos. You have helped so many people understand composition in a calm and reassuring manner. Thank you for continuing to provide inspiration and support with your new programs. You've always been there for others and now it is time to focus on your own journey. May you find joy and success in your new creative practice.
Thank you so much
Thank you for your generosity Ian. You were the first instructor to teach me how to paint plein air when I studied your tapes; well before you began posting on UA-cam. I was so thrilled when I found out you were on UA-cam and my education continued. I so appreciate you helping advance my painting skills over the years. Best wishes as you make new discoveries in your own art journey.
That goes back a while if you had the early videos. Glad to have been of service. With best wishes.
Mr. Roberts THANK YOU MUCH!!! You are such master painter, teacher and a very especial person. I have learned so much and got inspired also by you. Watching you, little by little because of you painting has become my favorite hobby. Come back soon!.
You are very welcome
Oh Ian. I’ve been following you for a number of years now. You have been my constant teacher for my art journey. I often looked up your past programs when I needed some guidance. As an example I had to watched again the video on perspective and shadows on that stacked boxes in the lounge room … your teaching were amazing and very 7:39 systematic. I will miss you 😢 thank you for sharing your work with us. You’re very inspirational 🙏🙏🙏
Wow, thank you!
I am taking this as an opportunity for my own quiet time. Bravo, Ian. You are such an exceptional example.
Thank you so much!
Such a strong and wise decision!!! And you are very generous in sharing your knowledge. Thank you very much.
Thank you so much. All the best
Thanks Ian for your lessons. I restart my paintings after many, many years and, for my happiness I found yours videos and teachings. Now, based on what I learn from you, I am looking for my own form of expression. It's difficult but a lot of fun. I will always be attentive, looking forward to new videos. Have a good time.
thank you so much
Probably the only “I’m taking a break” UA-cam video that is actually exciting. Thanks for the themed email list and wishing you all the best in your next adventure! Your videos certainly helped me a lot when I was getting back into painting!!!
Thank you very much!
Gratitude for your work, Ian. We are all travellers, perpetually in a search beyond our comprehension, periodically settling for a brief moment of respite. Good luck on the next leg of your journey, I look forward to hearing all about it. And I love you too. Jalal
Well said Jalal. All the best.
Many thanks for being a big part of my art journey. You are an inspiration and I love how generous you are to the betterment of so many artists. Time for yourself and your own art sounds ideal, best wishes to you.
Thank you so much!
Wisdom waits upon the Muses… May their rich blessings reward and grace your journey as you trust and abide with faith in the process… your generosity is inspiration itself… thank you Ian… we love you.
thank you so much
Thank you so much. I have been painting for most of my life which is now over 70 years. I am mostly a self taught artist. I have taught myself over the years mostly through experimentation and books. Your videos have been incredibly insightful. I love your teaching and appreciate your generosity. Thank you.😊
You are so welcome!
Ian, thank you so much for your generosity in giving us free access to a methodical program of learning through your videos. I always look forward to them and have learnt so much. I pray your time in exploration is richly rewarding and that you will be blessed as you have blessed us. Enjoy it, and thanks again.
Sydney, Australia.
You're very welcome!
Thanks for your videos over the last 4 years Ian. It's been very pleasant to have your content pop up, and I look forward to seeing what you do next!
Thank you so much!
Thankyou for all the excellent education. Wishing you all the Best Ian.
Thanks so much!
Dear Mr. Roberts, I'd like to express my gratitude for your generosity, kindness and your excellent work with your videos. You made me a better amateur artist, and a grateful viewer of your videos based on useful information, calmness, politeness and friendship.
Thank you so much!
So sooty to see you leave , but I totally understand why. Have just begun following you, and appreciate your straight forward in depth teaching. Will continue to to rewatch your videos and look forward to more in my inbox. Thank you.
Correction- so sorry
Thanks so much!
I respect and admire your decision to pursue a new chapter. As a watercolor painting hobbyist, your videos instruct on a different level, that of composition indeed, and you are a great teacher and artist. Thank you for your generosity. I'm struck by your continued commitment to instruct aspiring artists, only via a different vehicle. That too is extremely generous as you go down a new path. Wishing you the best!
Thanks so much
Gratitude!🙏 You have stepped beyond teaching us how to compose paintings and are now showing by example how to compose a life. 💕 Be well!
Thank you so much!
My pleasure
I shall miss the new videos. I thought I was going to have to rely on your wonderful books alone. Thanks for the new format of the older material coming. And most especially Godspeed to you in your journey into new discoveries for your own work and creativity. Know you have helped this guy lots.
You are so welcome!
Congratulations on your new adventure. You have always been such a positive inspiration. Thank you for inviting us all on this journey with you.
thank you so much
Dear Ian, I’d like to thank you for your generosity to share your knowledge with all of us. I had the privilege and pleasure to attend one of your painting classes in Provence years ago, and have been enjoying your precious videos on UA-cam ever since you started them. I wish you the very best for your new endeavors, and I look forward to what you will be sharing with us in the future. All the best for you! You are such a great and passionate teacher! Thank you. Petra
Hi Petra, nice to hear from you and thank you. I'm glad you found the videos and found them helpful. All the best.
Mr Roberts, Thank you for all your support for us starting artists. I have both your books and go to them constantly. I re-read Creative Authenticity many many times, every time I start doing the “avoidance dance” 😊. We artists love you and wish you the best in your new pursuits and look forward to receive any correspondence letting us know how you are doing. 💝
You are very welcome
How tremendously generous and kind you are! Thank you so much for everything you’ve posted on UA-cam. I understand completely and truly appreciate your sensibility and sensitivity. I look forward to receiving your emails and continuing this journey with you.
You are so welcome! Thank you
Thank you, Ian, for the time you have given in all of the videos you have done for us. They have been so helpful to me and I have saved each link in a file. I am so excited that you will be sending the emails of themed videos each month. Once again, you are so generous. I sincerely thank you. Best wishes on your new journey. I can't wait to see where it leads. Beverly
Enjoy your travels and new journey. I started watching you a year ago and you were a godsend to me, you made life worth living, I was unable to move and some weeks in bed after a fall. I so looked forward to those moments and the short condensed videos and hearing your wisdom and creativity and calmness. I can’t express how grateful I am to have had the privilege of listening to you. Wishing you all the best and enjoy your relaxation and search. Xxx
Thank you so much!
What a gracious good bye! I have appreciated your generosity in your videos. Best Wishes and Kind Regards!
Thanks so much!
You were a lifeline for this budding artist during the pandemic. A fantastic teacher. So many thanks.
Thanks so much!
Thank you. This is extremely generous. I have your book for many years and was delighted to find your UA-cam channel. All the best with your journey, may you be well.
Thank you so much!
I just discovered your wife’s work recently and have been watching your channel from your beginning . I love your channel and will miss it immensely. Thank you for your explanation. I understand how distracting social media can be. Please know you are a wonderful teacher and I have learned so much from you. Thank you! I look forward to your emails.
thank you so much
Thanks for your generosity Ian…happy alone time…I applaud your decision to take time for you.🌻
Thank you so much!
At first, I got very sad…and as I watched the video, got happy again! This seems like an excellent idea!!!
Thank you. Glad you watched it through!
I understand! I'm there too. Not blocked, just quietly looking thinking exploring. When we come out of this cocoon it's going to be amazing to watch us fly! Thanks for not leaving us behind. De
Yes emerging from a cocoon. A nice image to look forward to.
Thank you Ian for your generosity and kindness! It was truly a pleasure to follow your calm and clear advice. I'm looking forward to receiving your emails. Best of luck on your new creative endeavors! Warm regards, Mia
Thank you so much!
Talk you, Ian, for all the helpful (& entertaining) videos you have shared. I too have reached a point where I need to re-evaluate where I am in my painting progress. I’m really looking forward to the new monthly themed videos. Thank you for your generosity.
Thank you so much!
I just discovered your book on creative authenticity (via a reading list generously shared by Krista Harris), and it’s quickly becoming one of my favorite art books of all time. What a wonderful work about the inner life of the artist and why it’s so important. Thank you!
I just looked up Krista Harris. I'll have to thank her. I am delighted you enjoy the book. My very best wishes to you.
Hi Ian. I am beyond grateful for the hours of inspiration and encouragement you've shared. You are part of every artistic success I enjoy. I applaud your decision to focus on your art. You've enriched the lives of each artist viewing your videos. Enjoy your time exploring your new road. Oh, the fun you'll have!!! All the best and every joy to you. Hugs from the Rockies in British Columbia Canada.
You are very welcome
Ian, thank you so much for your kind, generous and sincere message. When I read that this was your last video, I thought, 'Oh no!' - but you have not left us comfortless! Rather, as the great teacher you are, you have very generously - and supportively - invited us to join you on a new, exciting journey of artistic growth. This is wonderful for me! I went from feeling sad to inspired. 🤗
Thank you so much again and all the very best with your own creative jouney!
With warm greetings from Australia, Dianne 🤗🎨💐💕
Thank you so much
Thank you for helping me step back from picking and poking at my pictures. I came late to your channel but appreciate and watch your early videos when I need a talking to. Bon Chance.
Thank you so much. All the best
Mr. Roberts, thank you for helping all of us grow with confidence. You are an inspiration.
Thank you so much!
Thank you, Ian. You are a generous and thoughtful man. I will look forward to your emails. Wishing you all the best in this next chapter.
Thank you very much!
Thank you for sharing your love and knowledge of the artistic process. I have loved watching your monthly videos and developing my own processes along the way.
Thanks so much!
Thank you for years of great content! I have subscribed to the newsletter and look forward to it. All the best!! 😊
Thank you so much. All the best
Ian, thank you for your wonderfully clear and empathic content. Your voice and your manner has engaged and comforted me in my own process. I have loved seeing the beautiful drawings on your wall each time too. 😊 Thank you for the energy you’ve invested here - I have benefitted. Please enjoy your own practice now. May you know beauty and blessing as you invite the slower pace and quiet spaces.
Your videos have meant so much to me, such a treasure. So many well intended and knowledgeable artists share in books and videos but rarely do they explain, succinctly yet still with depth of painterly know-how the way you have repeatedly. Your instruction lacks their florid, ornate descriptions that so easily drown out the core lesson. And this is why I already re-watch your videos and will continue in your absence. Thank you so so much for being there for other artists. Thank you. While we will miss you dearly, could see it is hard for you too, I understand and am happy that you are doing this time out for your own creative journey. I am certain it will be a bountiful artistically rewarding endeavor. Wishing you and your well. The best- ShannonM🥰
Thanks so much Sharon. And all the best to you as well.
Thank you for explaining so well, Ian. When I first saw "Last video" I was sad, but now I'm happy to know you're giving your full time to develop as your heart guides you. That benefits us all, as we learn so much from just looking at your paintings, not to mention the enjoyment you share through them. Blessings and good fortune in your explorations, and I look forward to the program you've so thoughtfully arranged.
Thank you so much
Ian, hello from Cyprus 🇨🇾 I’ve been watching and listening to your videos for quite a while and understand your individual need for personal development with full undisturbed focus. I have signed up for the emails and will continue to revisit all of your extremely valuable videos to date. Thank you for such clear guidance overtime and wish you some very interesting self discovery. God bless and happy creative times ahead. ❤
Thank you so much
Mr. Roberts, I have been watching your weekly and bi-weekly videos for several years. I have enjoyed and learned much from them. I'm an older gent and don't get around as well as I once did, so I watch a lot of videos of people painting pictures. I am a member of a watercolor guild and spend my time painting, watching, and being a member of that group. You have given me direction and inspiration that I pass on to the guild. Thank you. I look forward receiving your future emails.
You are very welcome
Excited for you as you plunge deeper into the craft! You're an excellent teacher and I'm grateful for everything I've learned from you. Paint on!
Thank you so much! Paint on!
I look forward to the next chapter of your artistic evolution. Your emails, videos, and book have made a huge difference in my artistic development. My deepest and sincerest thanks, Joan
Thank you so much. All the best
Thank you Ian for your time, and the generous sharing of your painterly experience. The time you will now take for yourself is vital, congratulations on this decision, and we will be here,..always, waiting to hear your thoughts and new discoveries. Love you too,.., if there were more Ian Roberts this would be a much better planet all around.
Thank you so much Moira. My very best wishes.
Dearest Ian (and Ann) , I wish you huge thanks and gratitude for all your generous sharing of knowledge and understanding.. I have both your books (bought 4 of the creative authenticity) for friends and fellow artists….so so valuable.
