    Would you consider doing a video on cloud building? The clouds in your paintings are some of the best I’ve seen. Thanks!

      Thanks for the compliment, yes future videos will feature clouds, I currently have two artworks I’ve drawn up that are scenes in the clouds, I just haven’t got around to painting them yet 💙

    Hi Chris As a newbie (just starting out in watercolour) I am always looking for inspiration. I discovered your art a few days ago and I was so thrilled not only with your amazingly beautiful work but to know you are from Perth WA (where I live) is such an added bonus. Love, love, love your work. Not sure if I will live another 20 years to become as 1/2 as good as you - but here's hoping. Thank you so much - love your set up. Would love you advise on the best brushes to purchase please. Looking forward to more video.

      Hi, thanks so much for your kind words, it’s cool you’re from Perth too! 😃 I don’t put a lot of importance on brushes, Paper is the most important, then paints, but I will list a few brands I enjoy. Princeton Neptune (super soft), Winsor & Newton Cotman (more firm) and davinci (casaneo & nova) that’s mostly what I personally use. I also have a lot of no brand cheap brushes that I’m quite fond of. I only use synthetic, they’re so good these days why bother with natural. Hope this helps, I never recommend brushes because it’s very much personal taste. Have fun painting with watercolours 💙

    Another excellent piece of work. I feel like as if I am a kid again when I look at your work. I would stare at artwork in books forever and simply get lost in it and create stories in my head about it. Yours give me that same vibe again only now as an adult and that is a fabulous feeling. Thank you for that and for sharing all your tips and tricks you learned the hard way over the years.
