Very poetic brushwork, obviously the fruit of long and careful observation. Watching this was a real pleasure. Thanks!
Artist, Painter, Musician, Writer, Teacher, and many more gifts I'm sure. Thank you for sharing. You are truly an inspiration.
+Barbara Grant-Larsen Thanks so much Barbara ! More Vids on the way :) TW
This is wonderful. No chatter, no bombast. A lesson well taught. Thank you so much.
Your'e welcome !
I could watch you paint all day long. What you did with the last group of people was so, so inspiring.
Thanks !
Thank you for posting. I realize that I need to spend a lot more time looking at people before I even reach for the brush
You are multi-talented! You are a phenomenal artist. Your brushstrokes are a swift, graceful dance bringing life before my eyes. Your figures are alive in the beauty of your music. Your work sings and dances into our hearts. Thank you for sharing your many gifts!
Thank you sooo much for your comments...made my day :) T
The music is OUTSTANDING Trevor . I love the lesson too !
Cool.....Thank You ! Patricia Smith
You make it look so effortless and easy! Very relaxing watching you paint - thank you for posting.
You're Welcome Teresa !
Everyone should do a whole practice sheet of these things. They are enchanting.
I love watching you paint, it's magical!!!
Even the tiniest, microscopic detail is absolutely perfect. I so love your art Trevor. You're magnificent!
Thanks again Me Myself ! Keep the compliments coming ! :)
I find this tutorial very useful, the realization of human figures is tremendously difficult for a novice. very good!
Both beautiful, painting and soundtrack. You are very talented Trevor. Thanks so much for sharing it.
Thank You So much !
Beautifully done! Short, sweet and to the point. And the music was a delight - lovely, uplifting and the perfect background for your easy, flowing style without being intrusive or overpowering to the tutorial.
You are magically unique in the way you can draw these figures with so few details like the gondola scene!
Thanks !
I'm a raw beginner at watercolours, Trevor, and I love the loose style of this medium especially for landscapes. Your figure paintings are superb! Subscribed. Thank you!
"Criant de vérité"...encore un super dessin! salut Trévor!
larry claude Thanks Larry !
This is the best video I've found on one stroke figure painting ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Thank You melkerart !!! :)
ok.... but like for the rest of us who aren't blessed with PURE MAGIC in their hands... how do we do it??
The book..people in watercolour has helped sooo much!...full of great information😊
Good to hear that Karen :)
I cannot begin to imagine how I would ever be able to do that!
It's as if what you see in your mind is flowing out of the end of the brush.
I think I'll just go back to trying to colour-in between the lines!
Thank You! Your music is always a wonderful bonus. So relaxing and inspirational.
Awesome. Its amazing how my eye fills in the forms. Great work.
+7Spankster7 Thanks !!!
Inspiring demonstration ... I wish you would teach HOW to do this, especially movement. Marvelous how you create life and movement in such simple, suggested figures.
Thank You Madame DeFarge for your feedback :) !
Like so many other things in life; the way to do this is to practice doing it, then keep on practicing until you can do it without practicing. The great thing about painting is that when you are practicing all these different techniques to improve your painting style you only need to use the paints that you already have, any sort of paper will do for practicing with, it doesn't even need to have a straight edge so scraps are fine, and then you can burn the paper, or throw it away, afterwards. The biggest handicap a lot of artists have is being able to justify to themselves why they aren't practicing. I throw away a lot of paintings, but it is better than never painting any. Every now and then I do something that I really like enough to keep.
Thank you Trevor, this is a wonderful lesson and the music is great!
Minden művét imádom.Egyszerüen,könnyeden alkot nagy dolgokat.A zene és a szöveg hozzá csodás.Mindig tanulok Öntöl valami jó dolgot. Köszönöm.!!!!!!

Thank you for sharing this, Trevor. What a marvellous gift you have. I agree that it takes years of dedicated and diligent practice to reach this level of ease and effect. Love from India.
Natasha R Naidu Want to paint in India one day !
Have just purchased your 30 minute People in Watercolour. Loving it! You are soo talented. Thanks for sharing x
Thank You so much..Happy Painting !!!
After your workshop in Newark on Tuesday thought I needed a refresher on painting figures!! Really enjoyed the workshop - had to dash off without thanking you - so thank you!!
That's OK Linda glad you enjoyed the workshop and hope you're fired up for painting...Regards T
i'm moving from painting with sketching first to painting directly and this vid is super helpful! thank you!
Thank You viridian gem ...heres hoping my vids help you in the future !
Painting technique n music both awesome!! Liked it too much!!!
It looks soooo simple, a tickle here a flick there but capturing the essence, the suggestion is achieved by talent, emulating what you do and achieve is always going to miss that special ingredient, well by me in any case. Thanks for the envy!
2 minute podcasts Thanks for those comments ! I agree it looks simple ...but lots of concentration and practice required ! making the best of an emergency is watercolour !!! :)
Thank you Trevor! This was most helpful and I never thought of looking at groups of people in one shape! bad on me, looking forward to more.

¡Es tan importante saber cómo dibujar con formas simples una figura humana! Lo haces de modo ssncillo y esto nos da impulso para practicarlo. Gracias Trevor por tu demo!!
I'll definitely try this. Thanks for sharing.
Lisa Morgan You're Welcome !

I just ordered your book Watercolor Flowers from Amazon, can't wait for it to get here.
I am trying to loosen up my painting style and am getting a lot of inspiration from your videos, thanks so much for these:)))
crystalheart9 Come to my Exhibition if you can ! In my studio May 10th to May 17th open 10.30am to 4.30pm every day ! Heywood. Wiltshire ...BA13 4LP .. Let me know ? T
That would be a dream come true! Thank you for the invitation:))) I would love to see your work in person. You are in England aren't you? Always wanted to visit there. I'm in the usa, too far away to see your studio. Thanks so much.
Ah ! Thats a shame ...will let you know next time i visit the states !
Awsome!:)
Es fabuloso ver como fluyen del pincel con gracia y cargados de espíritu esos seres magníficos ! Lo mejor es que usted los comparta con nosotros. Gracias !
nelson adolfo hurtado ordoñez Thank You !
Amazing! Thank you for sharing your knowledge and talent!
Erik dos Reis Youre Welcome !
Wow....that is amazing! 🤗🤗🤗
Love the music, too, Trevor!
Brilliant tutorial for beginners-mesmerising. Thnx.
subtle and very clever trevor I have tried to copy this but the figures end up looking like meat pies on roller skates
love your painting and music！！
Love to watch your lessons!
Barna Mirabella Keep watching Please !
Thanks Waugh, u r very good teacher
Trevor, just watched this again, and I am still struck by the free hand drawing with the brush. You must be visualizing the shape, the proportions, the leg and arm positions as you draw to get them to read so well. I've been practicing on and off over the past months, prompted by your videos, drawing people and animals, so I guess the answer is...do it more! But now that I have one of those magic silver handled brushes, I have what I need!
Mike Porter Hey Mike Thanks ....been without Wi Fi here for weeks...hence the delayed reply. More vids on the way with figures etc. Love T
Hi. Thanks. That seems like a great at to paint figures. I'm going to try it!
This is a nice way to figure it out.
You are so amazing, I love your style.😊
Love your style! Thank You for the lesson!
Ursula Coccomo My Pleasure !
Excellent work! Congratulations!
Thank You Marek!
I always loved water color but I didn't have the nerve to start it instead I picked up acrylic. It's only been 5 months and i was told pretty good at it but when I watched your water color it's such inspiring and wanted to do it. I think I can do both. I like your style and I love to learn your techniques. What would be your suggestion for tutorial? I could also get your video for certain brush strokes. I would love to get start it.
Sue.
Sue Dahabsu Well...I could suggest you look at all my videos here on youtube...first ..there are some books That I have on the market for tuition ...Harper collins publisher ..Titles " People in Watercolour " and " Flowers in Watercolour " You can purchase these online from Amazon...just type in my name to see whats available. I will be issuing some new VIDS SOON HERE ...so keep subscribed ! keep in touch ...T
I most sincerely confess my addiction to your tutorials... is it serious, doctor?
Dear Myriam .... It most sincerely is serious...probably terminal ! ...but thank you so much anyway...keep viewing :) lol

Потрясающе!!!
Yo are Awesome sir, perspective plays major rolls ,

+subhash chandra Thank You !!
Truly amazing!
Thanks !!!
I know, I know... every bird has its own particular tune, so I can hear you say... I just went through a couple of sites where some painters (euh... people) show their little figures... ( btw, they all do their very best to follow your example)...OMG, was I disappointed. There is only one real magician....So, the oscar goes to (drum-beat, drum-beat)...mister Trevor Waugh! And the vote was unanimous.
Myriam....what do I say to that...except.....I really appreciate your messages... they are ....AWESOME , WAUGHSOME ! :) Lets have some MORESOME !
