Thank you for this lesson. At 70, I am finally learning watercolor.
Great lesson. I was looking for someone who didn’t wet the entire paper for 2 minutes and then you have to paint real fast before it dries. This was terrific.
Id love to see you paint sunset or sunrise clouds. Also wispy coulds! Thanks for a great demo!!
LOVE the split screen idea! Good teaching techniques. Thank you.
I love that you move the paper around as you paint and are not using an easel! Also some of the most beautifully painted watercolor clouds that I've seen in a tutorial.
I gave this a big thumbs up way before the halfway point. So educational, and makes it look like so much fun. Thank you.
Thanks
The yellow ochre really makes the sky pop - lovely clouds. Thank you.
I'm watching this again and learning so much from you, Keith. I'd love to see you paint a sunrise and a sunset. Thanks.
By your request, we'll put something togther for you! Sunset first, I think!
Thanks for your comments!!
Oh, that's wonderful. I can't wait to watch it. You're the very best. Many thanks.
These are EXACTLY the kind of clouds I want to learn to paint! So many others doing cloud painting demos/instruction make them too soft and not distinct enough for my taste. Thank you so much!
You are so welcome!
thank you from England. just had a stroke andt trying to get back some left hand use back. inspirational thanks.
Haha “ happy greens..that didn’t glow in the dark” 😂 lol.
Fantastic painting, thank you so much for the great tutorial 👍
This is, absolutely, the best video I've seen on painting clouds. (And I've watched quite a few.) You explain everything so well! I'm going to try this soon. Thank you so much! New sub.
These clouds are so artsy and real and heavenly. Thanks!👍
Thank you!
Clouds have been a problem for me and your video helps so much. Thanks.
So happy to have found you. My next try!
As a watercolor painter, this is the only video that explains (I've found) technique with the palette mixing thoroughly, so thank you! Those are some perfect clouds!
Was really great to watch took plenty of photos so I can try later have saved you in my list I will keep watching you when I can thankyyou
Fantastic technique. Love how you leave the clouds in rather than lift out. Great job
Excellent tutorial thank you for sharing your expertise! This cloudy sky is happy and beautiful :)
Just found you and I'm just thrilled with your style and set up. I love clouds and struggle with them. This is going to help. Ty!
Thank you, Keith. I really like your style of watercolour painting. You have taught me a lot about painting clouds and distant trees in this video. I would love to see you paint a sunset or sunrise, please. :)
good possibility of that happening
I'm liking the sky, going to try that this weekend. Good demonstration.
Love your clouds and sky.
Thanks!
I'm trying to learn how to drawing blue sky and the video gives me a good way.Thank you very much! The painting is beautiful!
Thanks for watching.
Terrific instructional video; thank you. Your explanation of painting of clouds is the best that I have seen.
Wow, thank you!
Thank you for all your helpful tips. The sky
Looks lovely, and the way you did it seems much
Easier to follow, than watching someone splash
The paper with water and drop all kinds of colour in.
Your hedging too looks great and more manageable to follow.
So much help.
Thanks
Thank you, and if you get more comfortable you’ll be adding more water and more color! I think this is a great starting point for getting comfortable with skies.
I'm trying to start watercolor painting and this just blew my mind, awesome work my friend!
Great video! Great instruction. Thank you!
Thanks
Love the higher quality of your work. Thanks
I like that you worked
with one color !
I just discovered you and I think you are a wonderful teacher and a lot of fun. Subscribed.
I think I’ll give this one a try. Thanks for sharing!
Great technique on painting clouds!
Thank you for the tutorial! This is so helpful for beginner like me :D
Well done,I like to be relaxed and simply thank you
Love your classes. Easy to follow. Thank you, I am learning a lot.
"watching paint dry"- lol. Just found you and enjoy your style of teaching. Liked, subscribed. (=
Gosh, this is beautiful (especially the pretty blue :)) TFS...
Thanks
Hi, this is the best video tutorial for drawing clouds with Watercolor ... it's the truth.
If possible there is only one small note: the oblique shot on the drawing board does not help much to those who are trying to learn, the video camera should be in front of the drawing sheet.
Thank you so much
Very nice, Keith.
Thanks
It's really very awesome video 😘😲😍😍❤💕🤗🙏
Loved the video, thank you. I will try this when I manage to get some equipment
👍🏾 You just earned a like plus a subscriber because of this video.
Love the clouds
Thank you so much. this is a great video.
Very nice cloud demonstration and beautiful result on the sky. The foreground seemed like an unnecessary after thought.
Thank you guys!!!!
Felicitaciones me gusta como explica las veladuras
Lots of information Thank You. Welcome from Poland
Thanks

WOW NEVER KNEW THAT U COULD DO IT LIKE THAT!😁😱👌😯
Now you know, and knowing is half the battle.
r k mcguire well that's incredible
Beautiful👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏💖💖💖💖💖😍😍😍😍😍😍
🦔💗 What a nice teacher.
Learnt so much , Thankyou
Nice painting....the final result was warm landscape with cool clouds....
Thanks for sharing.
Minor suggestion about the audio quality....to improve it.
Regards
I SUBSCRIBED thanks Keith
Wow, I used to have an art teacher and he was my favourite teacher of all time and his initials are the same as yours but instead of Keith his name is Kevin
The "Jerry Garcia" of the Watercolor World - ... Your Painting? ... "It's a beautiful Thing" ... Thank you for this great Demonstration!
We (or I should say "I") definitely need your drawing, as it is an integral part of your painting.
Lol... I choked when I heard you say how you clean your brush on your pants...as I stare to the wet spot on my knee😀🎨
Love the way you teach and the way you paint. Also, do you narrate cooking tutorial?
Great video!
Good video. Thanks. Suggestion, though ... it's kind of hard to watch, as the video so often shows the painting upside down or half upside down and half sideways. It'd be so much better to show the painting process with the painting rightsize up!
Enjoy your teachings. I can understand you and your approach. Question... you spoke of the magic eraser... and how to eraser "oops". Where can I find your explanation? Have searched and came up empty. Thank you again
What kind and size of paintbrush is this? it is not in the description. Great tutorial!
Lovely clouds !
Do you think cerulean looks real?
Hi Keith.. just found you and so glad I did. Finally! Someone who doesn't wet the whole sky and lift cloud area.. never got the knack of that. I also heard the guy in the background mention Lowel-Cornel brush... where do you get those. I have some from many years ago... saber/dagger... which are my favorite brushes and i can't find them. Thanks for great instruction... including pigments which so many never share and its so important to know..
Pat Kin: I agree! This method looks so much better, and I'm trying it soon!
Could you please share the supplies you used in this video?
Love this!! I've struggled with clouds for a bit. Im excited to try this out! Also wanted to ask how you prep your paper. Like you, I turn my canvas. How and what are you taping your paper to? Thanks again, great tutorial! 😊😊😊
Loved the video but I, too, want to know how you prepared your paper please.
Really good and useful thank you. Only wondering why you left the tops of the clouds. They look way to sharp-edged to me, too drawn. Sorry.
Thanks for this turtorila (tried spelling turtorial but left it as turtorila bc it's a hilarious mistake)
Very clear explanation. Thanks for that. Could you put a paraglider on this sky? For me??? Plee, plee, please? I don't know how do this!!! Bless you.
I am a beginner to watercolor. Where can I find the watercolor paint Indigo? I have started using MGraham paints and thry don't carry it. Please grt back to me.
Keith, really like your painting style but I wish I had a reference photo for your barn from Sweden and the cabin by the creek so that I could make a good sketch to paint. I'm looking on Amazon to see which Smichke(sp) set you are using and I can't find one with crimson in it. Could you give me the name of your set and the number of pans in it? Thank you, Priscilla Ware.
I do exactly the opposite. I wet where I want clouds and put the blue in between then bleed into the wet areas. I'm dyslexic and it just makes more sense to my brain. Lol.
Hi love your style of painting the clouds.. Audio not working can't hear you. What name brand of you brush, love its point. Thank you best regards Deedee
would you like to tell me what kind of paper you use? arches?
Arches 140# cold press- Best there is, Very good for beginners and pros!! Very durable.
thank you！
The video is great. But the audio needs work.
How do you split the screen like that
multi-camera setup and some editing
Are you instagram! Your lesson is very helpful to me. Thanks.
What was the brand of paint again?
schmincke watercolor paint
FYI your microphone isn't working.
No...ur ear doesn't work
👍😍👍
What tape do you use? Why does mine wrinkle with water? I’m using 200 gsm cold pressed.
Hi Erika, I’m using a standard blue tape for house painting/trim. It’s sticky enough to hold to the paper but not damage it upon removing. Green frog tape is just as good, But more expensive.
r k mcguire Thank you so much! 😊
Sound needs to be worked on!
Need closed captioning!
Request: please consider moving the camera to an over your shoulder shot so the viewer can get a horizontal view. Right now, most ot the time we are looking at an extreme slant that is very taxing on the brain.
Is it only me who finds the sound very poor? Can barely hear it a full volume.
Yep the volume is a bit low on this video, but a great tutorial nonetheless!
But the sound is soft. Its not too pitchy.
Sound is very scratchy.
Holy crap Keith. Those paints are expensive!!! Ouch.
But they last for a long time.

If he bends that paper one more time...
Draw LUCY.com
Hmmm. So far, at 9 minutes, it is looking like you are painting a globe or the nations or something.
The green background doesn't compliment you. It's a bit distracting
Yea use that "guy" .
Looks more phthalo than cerulean
Josh Lawson Hey Josh I have to admit that the Schminke pan pants cerulean blue does look much more like a Phthalo.
r k mcguire after saying that, I found schmincke phthalo and tested it and it looked just like yours. Then I remembered why I didn't use it. Love your videos BTW.
Thanks Josh.
I wish your photographer would keep your painting upright. I am a novice and you kept turning your painting around and I couldn't follow you. I wish you would have mentioned you drew in the clouds before I started wetting the paper. And I didn't know where the top was because you didn't say it before you started painting.
Very low audio.. Can't hear a thing your saying 😢
Less talk please i can learn more from watching
I love your work. I would love to see you paint a flamenco dress in movement, like this
