I literally can't wait for your weekly video tutorials, Paul. I particularly like your personality, humour and technique. Your videos are concise without being rushed. I absolutely love how you give your paint mixtures/ratios as you paint with numerous explanations about why and how you are accomplishing the steps. You are my new favorite watercolorist on UA-cam without a doubt. Many thanks to you. I'm already looking forward to next week's installment. 👍👏
Wow, thank you Stelean! - It really does make a difference when you know people are enjoying the videos. It also makes you strive to try and make each one better than the last. Stay in touch!
Yesss Stalean exactly wrote what I wanted to say. Thanks a lot Paul 🌈 Only me I do prefer not to use pastels with my watercolour paintings. Looking forward to your next video 👍
You're by far the most entertaining, playful, light-hearted, vibrant, high-spirited visual artist I've known in my life. I wish I could study with you. 😊😊😊😊
I've been binge-watching your videos for the past couple of days after discovering your channel (got to get an acrylic Santa Claus painting done for my grandchildren before I start putting your tuition into practice) but just wanted to agree with the person who mentioned the music you use - it's a real de-stresser, doesn't distract from the content itself and perfectly complements your style of presentation. Thank you very much for your thoughtfulness in this regard.
These are lovely soft mountains. I can't wait to give them a try. I would love to see a tutorial on distant rugged snow-capped mountains, such as the Alps. By the way, I love the tribute to Bob Ross and his "happy little trees".
So many people are very snobby about Bob Ross, but he was the one who first got me interested in painting in the 80's. I did originally paint in oils and acrylic. He was such a kind soul. Love this tutorial.
Paul lovely. It would take years before one could to do what you did so well in 17 minutes. Thank you Paul God bless you...... but I am a Buddhist and say may the blessings of the Buddha be with you always.
I just spent money on 100% cotton paper and this will be the painting I will try on it. I was encouraged to read that you painted it twice before you were happy with it. That will help me jump in. Thank you!
Thank you Paul. Having you here on Yotube is like having a real teacher. I have learned a ton from your tutorials and I am really grateful. There was a time I couldn't even put down a flat wash on paper and now I can hold my own and follow your tutorials and end up with something pretty impressive. Thank you again for your generosity and the work you do! if you only knew how happy you make us. and your sense of humor......... just the best
I SO enjoy all of your videos. You are so detailed and versatile. The first thing I learned was, "it's Pole Clawk" and you use a "number 3 riggaw". Then I paid more attention to the instructions. I'm 87 and have only used Acrylics doing murals. Now that I can't climb a ladder and sitting is my most comfortable position, watercolor painting has become a passion to learn. I watch so many videos, but Louise" De Masi and you are my favorites. Totally different styles and subjects, but both the kind of precise instruction I need. I've painted this scene twice. I haven't learned the light touch watercolor can have if properly painted so I wasn't satisfied with the first, and painted the second. I was looking for a the little improvement when I knocked a half full pint jar of water all over the painting, my desk, my lap and the rug drank the rest. "No, you can't "stretch" your painting after you paint the picture!" So, I hope the addage, "Third time's the charm" is true. I will try again in two days, "Good Lord willing and the creek don't rise". Thank you for your years of experience and knowledge that you share so humorously.
Hi Carol lovely comment and delighted to help - coming from an Acrylics background it will take a little time to get used to watercolours - but be warned, one you do it's very addictive!!!
The Watercolour Police!! 😂 I love that! I think fear of them is one of the (many) things that’s holding me back. But using pastels to catch highlights is genius. Thanks for your time and the generous sharing of your talent. Oh, and I’d like to think Bob is fondly watching over you with a happy little smile! X
Dont worry so much about the cops I think they are very understaffed and arrest very few people....i get away with many things! Sometimes......sssh.....i practice watercolor on crappy paper! It looks awful usually....but helps me get courage up for the good paper.
I got started painting during lockdowns after watching Bob Ross’ series “The Joy of Painting.” I find his voice relaxing and when I can’t sleep I listen to his videos. He makes oil painting look so easy but I found it isn’t that easy. I soon switched to watercolor painting and recently found your channel. I have learned so much through your videos. I have been watching all your previous videos and look forward to new ones each week. You have a great sense of humor which makes it even more enjoyable. I appreciate that you share your knowledge, tips, instruction, talent, enthusiasm and humor with others. Painting has become my therapy and has kept my sanity over these past 2+ years! Thank you from California!
Great video as always. The Old footage of Bob Ross cracked me up. All good teachers such as yourself have the rare ability to combine solid understandable content with a fun and humerous style that makes it all enjoyable. Thanks!
Glad you enjoyed it and many thanks - that's one of the nicest comments I had! I'm never sure if the silliness dilutes the teaching so it's good to hear!
just saw you for the first time.i had given up on water colors.you convinced me to try again.you are the best teacher i ever saw.I look forward to being a regular follower of your videos.thank you
This was such a nice tutorial especially the mixing of colors and all the other tips and techniques. The mountains were so impressive! You did well impersonating Bob Ross who started so many with oils but you are a star on watercolors, techniques, and tips. Thanks for sharing your talent on UTUBE. Thanks to Margot, too who adds so much to the show and offering resources to paint. 🤗
I have seen so many you tube videos for art instruction but nothing compares to your narrative. Seriously, I'm actually learning here Paul. Looking forward to viewing more of your tutorials sir. Good day...
Hey that was therapy Paul - I so enjoy your videos they make me laugh so much and really bring me to a happy relaxed mindset - your a great guy and I’ve learned a great deal having merged your style into mine - it’s all about fun and remembering that we are here on this planet to be happy and not get too worked up about mistakes- every time I make one my wife misses them and points out a part of the painting I actually like and say “ that’s not worked honey “ - please keep going you are brilliant
Having a wonderful time painting along with Paul. So far, I’ve tried three watercolour paintings. Your little tips and techniques are going a long way in improving my watercolours. Thanks once again.
My gratitude to you, Paul! I am in the process of once again picking up my painting passion, as I now have time to learn and improve. You're "just the ticket", as we say here in the mts of NC USA. I am alone, having lost my husband of 50 years and you and your instruction are life savers! I would love to see a glimpse of your workspace as you dip your brush. (water ratio, etc) Again, many thanks.
Another wonderful Watercolor tutorial with Paul! This autumn painting is grand adding the buck and all those beautiful colors which is so common in New England. As always your process and tips are so helpful for all levels of painters, thank you! 🎨
Thank you Paul. I absolutely LOVE your videos and your style of painting. I, too, look forward to your videos and will definitely give this one a go. The Bob Ross “tribute” was so funny 😁 Really appreciate what you do to help all the artists out here. You’re easily the best watercolor painter on UA-cam, and the best teacher 😊
This one was so challenging to paint! So many details and moments that I had to stop and wait for it to dry before I could go on. I made some mistakes, but I am proud of my result! Thank you Paul for the lovely tutorials, your humour and your talent!
Вы- волшебник! Белый лист бумаги на глазах превращается в живой кусочек природы, стоит только прочитать заклинание, дунуть на лист и все оживет: зашумит ветер в роще, зажурчит река, запоют птицы и лучик солнца согреет лицо! Чудо! Сказка! И к тому же волшебник заряжает своим позитивом картины и своих учеников!!!
Your videos are the absolute best. Not only are you incredibly talented, you’re quite funny. I’ve learned so much from watching your videos. Thank you! Cheers.
EXACTLY my kind of landscape painting! It's very helpful that you explain your materials at the beginning of the video. Hope you do more similar to this, thank you!
Enjoyed this video a lot! It is a pleasure to see the beautiful landscape emerging... thank you for the inspiration and for sharing your knowledge and skills.... 🙏🙏
After 20 years or so in the Air Force Bob Ross taught us how to paint wet in wet acrylic and oils. He did it all for free on PBS. I loved watching him bring a white sheet of paper to life. I loved it so much that I started and I owe it all to him. July 1995 was one of the saddest months (well August) in my personal history. My first deployment on a Western Pacific cruise in the Navy(aka WestPac). In August we had a Tomcat strike the fantail and almost lost the pilot and the RIO. Luck was with us all. Luck and some damn fine sailors with their stuff tight. After sorties and clean up I heeded below deck and got the news of Bob's passing. We don't get a lot of news at sea. I knew he was sick pre-deployment. I was alone and I started to cry. All the adrenalin and the excitement and War and OMG I am in the middle of the Persian Gulf surrounded by sea snakes and war and the death of an idol just filled me to bursting. Sad. I felt like I had to hide. Then an NCO witnessed and he told me it was natural. Soothing my emotional state was very very important. I told him of Bob and I think he was about to cry too.
Hi Paul, I am from Washington State, I love your technique and the way you do tutorials, Easy to understand, Just starting to learn watercolors and have never tried yet, I am glad I found your UA-cam Channel, Mixing colors is a good start for me and watching your every tutorial is really a plus. Can't wait to watch your other tutorials. I keep myself tuned in for hours. Thank you
Colourful, fresh and lively. Love how the pastels pick up the texture of the paper and give the impression of leaves. So pretty! Thanks for sharing your talents Paul!
Thank you once again for a beautiful picture of a happy mountain painting! The rich colors you chose... just loved. When I'm ready to try it, I will set up my new tablet and watch, pause and paint!!! Just getting use to different phone and this Gramma and technical "stuff". Whew! I'll be painting in no time at all!❤My rigger isn't as strong as yours... may have to find a new one. Any ideas for buying one? God bless you for sharing your gift with all of us! From a California Gramma ❤
Going to paint this today. Sitting, watching now and in my head a voice is saying, "Joey, relax, not too much paint, don't "stir yourself around-t", work quickly." All of that is foreign to me. Then I heard the voice say, "DOES THAT BRUSH LOOK WORRIED TO YOU?!' Loved it!
That is really beautiful! I especially love the color of the mountain. You make it look so easy. Personally, I’m on the verge of giving up. I just don’t seem to have a knack for watercolor. The only thing that has kept me from throwing in the towel completely is that I have a bazillion tubes of watercolor that I bought when I first decided to give it a go. Pray for me. lol
I've already painted several pictures based on your videos. I learned the dry brush technique last week. I really liked that the mountains were made with this technique, it’s a challenge for me to see if I can do it. It’s exciting to use pastel, I like it better than the pencil. I learn a lot from every video. Thank you very much.
Paul, just tried the pastel pencils on a gouache piece, fantastic finish. To think they were sitting in a drawer. Now out and prominent. Thanks so much. Your instruction is wonderful.
I absolutely love mountain paintings! I love that you occasionally use other media in your paintings. It proves just how creative you can be when you allow yourself to think out of the box. I would like to see a painting with fog in it. I took some beautiful photos with trees all in white with the trees in the distance blurred by fog, but I have no idea how you would go about painting something like that. Thank you so much for these tutorials, I always learn something from them! God Bless
Sir, I don't know exactly how to thank you, but you've revoked the artist within me. I've just discovered your channel and started watching your videos through which I've learnt a lot! I've recommended all my other friends and put down in my friends groups as well. Thankyou so so much, you're doing an amazing job by helping young aspirants and architecture students like me🙏🏻
Hi Vandana - thanks so much for your rally nice comment - it makes it all worth while when you know people are learning something from you - and thanks for recommending to your friends - it means a lot!!! - keep in touch, new video every Wednesday!
For last nine months after lockdown in India,I started painting seeing UA-cam videos of various artists.I started with Oil pastels of my kids ,which were used up and worn out ones.But That didn't deter me.Then came soft pastels.Then poster colors and then finally I got my hands on acrylic painting.This was a turning point ,that last sunday I painted 20×20inch stretched Canvas painting inspired by UVN art.But for two days after seeing YOUR water colour videos I am terribly inclined to do this style too.Let me see How many days waiting👍 Merry Christmas to you and all of your fans and Thanks for such nice tutorials.🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
I just discovered you! And I have been binge watching now for two days! Your paintings are wonderful, your instruction informative, and immensely entertaining.
Love how you mix the media (pastels i. e. on the watercolor) don't know why I always thought I would have to do everything with the same medium. One can become so anxious about having fun 😅 your videos truly help to overcome the fear and start painting (again). What a lovely way to inspire people to express! 🎨👌☺️
I loved this tutorial! Thank you so much. I appreciate how you explain the paint mixtures with percentages and the fact that you are also incorporating the pastels.
I loved watching Bob Ross with my children years ago. I think you are similar in that you have his calm way of teaching which helps us to relax and enjoy what we are doing. However, I don't recall seeing the clip of Bob that you showed nor do I remember him having a British accent.... 😉 Happy painting! Rose
You are hilarious Paul. :) I so enjoyed your tutorial.Thanks so much for talking us through step by step and sharing the colors you're using. I almost think I could do this! I appreciate you sharing your techniques as well. Your mountains are amazing! It's what caught my eye!!! And thanks for not disappointing us by withholding your splatters!!!
You are so welcome Laina and of course you can do it! - confidence and not being afraid of making mistakes! Yes, I do love my splatters - you should see the state of my desk and floor after a long painting session!
There is so much light coming from the painting - lovely! As an aside, I sometimes try to work out what techniques you used before I watched the video. The background mountains were a puzzle - I thought you may have used brusho - wrong! Great to watch you at work with excellent advice - thanks again.
Bob and his mentor Bill Alexander, at one time great friends, feuded for years. Bill had his own tv show for a few years, taught Bob and Bob went on to become who we still see on reruns if we bother to watch him. Most people think the feud was about Bob claiming he invented the technique. Not so. He didn't invent it, he didn't claim to have invented it and that wasn't what the feud was about. Bill said that Bob thought he was a better painter than himself. Personally I don't think he was but he had the personality and presence that Bill lacked and he did know how to make money with it. That's the story for anyone who didn't know it. I like your techniques much, much better. Much harder than the method of oil painting that Bill and Bob did. Watercolor requires so much more. I know since I've done both for years. You're a much better painter than either Bob, Bill or myself.
@@joecool8005 I missed that. Probably wouldn't have watched it. I got burned out on the whole mess in '83. Now and then when surfing for something to watch my wife will stop to watch Bob seduce the canvas. 😏
Thanks again Chuck - thats really interesting stuff. I did watch a documentary on him recently on UA-cam - perhaps the same one Joe mentions below (him not me!) - I found it totally fascinating and quite intriguing that he didn't consider himself to be a great painter. He certainly had the personality that Bill didn't have.
What a great video lesson. The scene reminds me on a vaccation trip in Austria. I cant wait to give it a try! Thank you Paul! Cheers Petra from Kologne
Beautiful ! The way you explain steps and how to mix the colors by % is so helpful! I love your videos and look forward to more!! Thank you for sharing your wonderful talent and those beautiful dogs!!😀
I did enjoy a lot, Paul!!! I felt very happy and relaxed the whole time. It is soooo beautiful, I could spend a whole day just watching you paint. Thank you so much Paul. 😊😊😊😊
I had a wee snigger at the watercolour police, I've already been told off for signing in ink as that makes it mixed media apparently! So it was with glee I got the pastels out and just for good measure a scrape of bleed proof white for the water highlights. All joking aside, fab tutorial, I always learn something in your tutorials, the guidance is so good I always manage to produce something I'm pleased with.
I literally can't wait for your weekly video tutorials, Paul. I particularly like your personality, humour and technique. Your videos are concise without being rushed. I absolutely love how you give your paint mixtures/ratios as you paint with numerous explanations about why and how you are accomplishing the steps. You are my new favorite watercolorist on UA-cam without a doubt. Many thanks to you. I'm already looking forward to next week's installment. 👍👏
Wow, thank you Stelean! - It really does make a difference when you know people are enjoying the videos. It also makes you strive to try and make each one better than the last. Stay in touch!
Yesss Stalean exactly wrote what I wanted to say. Thanks a lot Paul 🌈 Only me I do prefer not to use pastels with my watercolour paintings. Looking forward to your next video 👍
I agree with Stalean! Love your videos and your personality, humour and techniques! Thank you!
Exactly this, thank you for a great tutorial!
Oh wow! Your puppies! Precious, precious animals. All they want is love.
too true - and fed and walked twice a day!
You're by far the most entertaining, playful, light-hearted, vibrant, high-spirited visual artist I've known in my life. I wish I could study with you. 😊😊😊😊
Wow, thank you Jan - so nice of you to say!!
I could not agree more. I want sit next to Paul and just watch. I'll be quiet as a moon beam...I promise 😊🙏🏻
Your three pets are adorable! Thanks for popping them in the video!
I've been binge-watching your videos for the past couple of days after discovering your channel (got to get an acrylic Santa Claus painting done for my grandchildren before I start putting your tuition into practice) but just wanted to agree with the person who mentioned the music you use - it's a real de-stresser, doesn't distract from the content itself and perfectly complements your style of presentation. Thank you very much for your thoughtfulness in this regard.
That is awesome! - glad you like the music - not everyone does but I think it helps set the mood!
These are lovely soft mountains. I can't wait to give them a try. I would love to see a tutorial on distant rugged snow-capped mountains, such as the Alps. By the way, I love the tribute to Bob Ross and his "happy little trees".
Hi Marcia - thanks for the comment - snow and mountains definitely on the list!
So many people are very snobby about Bob Ross, but he was the one who first got me interested in painting in the 80's. I did originally paint in oils and acrylic. He was such a kind soul. Love this tutorial.
Thanks for sharing!
Paul lovely. It would take years before one could to do what you did so well in 17 minutes. Thank you Paul God bless you...... but I am a Buddhist and say may the blessings of the Buddha be with you always.

Wonderful - thanks Kathleen!!
Thank you Paul another lovely painting🙂
I love watching you paint, please keep them coming.
Wii do - thanks Jan!
Having a wonderful time painting along with Paul. So far, I’ve tried three watercolour paintings. Your little tips and techniques are going a long way in improving my watercolours. Thanks once again.
My pleasure 😊
My gratitude to you, Paul! I am in the process of once again picking up my painting passion, as I now have time to learn and improve. You're "just the ticket", as we say here in the mts of NC USA.

Thank you so much 😀
The video of the mountain and the lake had me mesmerized! wonderful¡
That’s great to hear thanks 😊
Thank you Paul. I absolutely LOVE your videos and your style of painting. I, too, look forward to your videos and will definitely give this one a go. The Bob Ross “tribute” was so funny 😁 Really appreciate what you do to help all the artists out here. You’re easily the best watercolor painter on UA-cam, and the best teacher 😊
Awesome, thank you! - very nice of you to say Cathy
One of the most informative tutors on here, and funny too! I have learnt a lot. Thank you
Thank's a lot Stephen - that means a lot!
This one was so challenging to paint! So many details and moments that I had to stop and wait for it to dry before I could go on. I made some mistakes, but I am proud of my result! Thank you Paul for the lovely tutorials, your humour and your talent!
Thank you! Cheers!

Very kind thanks Rob!
I love your humor and tutorials!!! 3 👍
I love to see all your video tutorials. I love the way of your explanations. Thank you.
You are so welcome!
EXACTLY my kind of landscape painting!
It's very helpful that you explain your materials at the beginning of the video. Hope you do more similar to this, thank you!
Thank you so much Vaughnigami - definitely more to come similar to this - stay in touch!
My friends and myself would appreciate having you slow down your video and talk more through the detailed processes. Thank you
Enjoyed this video a lot! It is a pleasure to see the beautiful landscape emerging... thank you for the inspiration and for sharing your knowledge and skills.... 🙏🙏
Great to hear thanks 😊
I love the pastel over the watercolour!

Cheers Kathy - have fun!
Your videos are very very helpful for me.
I've already painted several pictures based on your videos. I learned the dry brush technique last week. I really liked that the mountains were made with this technique, it’s a challenge for me to see if I can do it. It’s exciting to use pastel, I like it better than the pencil. I learn a lot from every video. Thank you very much.
That is awesome! - cheers Eva!
Paul, just tried the pastel pencils on a gouache piece, fantastic finish. To think they were sitting in a drawer. Now out and prominent. Thanks so much. Your instruction is wonderful.
Fantastic! Glad it helped Francine!!
I absolutely love mountain paintings! I love that you occasionally use other media in your paintings. It proves just how creative you can be when you allow yourself to think out of the box. I would like to see a painting with fog in it. I took some beautiful photos with trees all in white with the trees in the distance blurred by fog, but I have no idea how you would go about painting something like that. Thank you so much for these tutorials, I always learn something from them! God Bless
Thank you so much! - wow! - check out tomorrows video - sounds like it's made for you!
Yet another lovely painting to add to my saved ones to try later
Have fun!
Thank you Paul, another brilliant video packed with tips and inspiration.
Glad you enjoyed it

Thank you! Cheers!
For last nine months after lockdown in India,I started painting seeing UA-cam videos of various artists.I started with Oil pastels of my kids ,which were used up and worn out ones.But That didn't deter me.Then came soft pastels.Then poster colors and then finally I got my hands on acrylic painting.This was a turning point ,that last sunday I painted 20×20inch stretched Canvas painting inspired by UVN art.But for two days after seeing YOUR water colour videos I am terribly inclined to do this style too.Let me see How many days waiting👍
Merry Christmas to you and all of your fans and Thanks for such nice tutorials.🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
Same to you and good luck with your watercolour journey
Meenakshi !
I just discovered you! And I have been binge watching now for two days! Your paintings are wonderful, your instruction informative, and immensely entertaining.
Thank you so much Janice and welcome aboard - keep in touch new video every Wednesday!!!!
Beautiful painting Paul, and love your technique and sense of humour. In my opinion the painting was lovely even without the pastel touches
Glad you enjoyed it
Looks like a dream land. Really wonderful Paul.
Thanks so much!
Love the tutorial and had a good laugh with the Bob Ross impersonation.
Its magic. I love to watch and listen carefully your videos sir.... each step is explained. Learning so much from you sir. Thank you
Thanks and welcome
Love how you mix the media (pastels i. e. on the watercolor) don't know why I always thought I would have to do everything with the same medium. One can become so anxious about having fun 😅 your videos truly help to overcome the fear and start painting (again). What a lovely way to inspire people to express! 🎨👌☺️
You are so welcome! 🎨👌☺️
I loved this tutorial! Thank you so much. I appreciate how you explain the paint mixtures with percentages and the fact that you are also incorporating the pastels.
You are so welcome!
Loved it! Got to get a few paints and paper. What a lovely way to pass time.
Have fun Bill!
Thanks greatly appreciated didn't finish watching the other day, very calmly explained to inspire others. Thanks stay safe
Glad you enjoyed it - stay safe too Philip!
I have subscribed to skillshare to get a proper teacher, but the way you teach is just amazing!! I love it
Wow, thank you Maria and welcome to the channel - keep in touch, more to come!!!!
I loved watching Bob Ross with my children years ago. I think you are similar in that you have his calm way of teaching which helps us to relax and enjoy what we are doing. However, I don't recall seeing the clip of Bob that you showed nor do I remember him having a British accent.... 😉 Happy painting! Rose
Lol!!! thanks for that Rose - he was a legend!
Fabulous Paul….looking forward to my travel trip to paint the mountains and fjords and from my memory that colour for the water looks perfect! 😊
Have fun!
Fantastic painting and lesson. You're the best!
Thank you so much 😀
I learn from u a lot in fact I m interested in painting just bcoz of u sir. Thank you so much❤❤
So nice of you Sunaina - mega thanks!!!
You are hilarious Paul. :) I so enjoyed your tutorial.Thanks so much for talking us through step by step and sharing the colors you're using. I almost think I could do this! I appreciate you sharing your techniques as well. Your mountains are amazing! It's what caught my eye!!! And thanks for not disappointing us by withholding your splatters!!!
You are so welcome Laina and of course you can do it! - confidence and not being afraid of making mistakes! Yes, I do love my splatters - you should see the state of my desk and floor after a long painting session!
Hello Paul,I really like your technique and the way you make painting easy and fun.Thanks
You are very welcome Ana!
There is so much light coming from the painting - lovely! As an aside, I sometimes try to work out what techniques you used before I watched the video. The background mountains were a puzzle - I thought you may have used brusho - wrong! Great to watch you at work with excellent advice - thanks again.
Thanks so much 😊
I like your lessons😊 and tshirts 💕🌾 thank you lots of love from Türkiye
Glad you like them!
I like your way of explaining,you are god gifted,thanks a lot
Thanks and welcome
You sir, are a joy to watch!
Thanks so much May Ann!
Bob and his mentor Bill Alexander, at one time great friends, feuded for years. Bill had his own tv show for a few years, taught Bob and Bob went on to become who we still see on reruns if we bother to watch him. Most people think the feud was about Bob claiming he invented the technique. Not so. He didn't invent it, he didn't claim to have invented it and that wasn't what the feud was about. Bill said that Bob thought he was a better painter than himself. Personally I don't think he was but he had the personality and presence that Bill lacked and he did know how to make money with it. That's the story for anyone who didn't know it.
I like your techniques much, much better. Much harder than the method of oil painting that Bill and Bob did. Watercolor requires so much more. I know since I've done both for years.
You're a much better painter than either Bob, Bill or myself.
There was a documentary about him recently, Bob not Paul 😀
@@joecool8005 I missed that. Probably wouldn't have watched it. I got burned out on the whole mess in '83.
Now and then when surfing for something to watch my wife will stop to watch Bob seduce the canvas. 😏
Thanks again Chuck - thats really interesting stuff. I did watch a documentary on him recently on UA-cam - perhaps the same one Joe mentions below (him not me!) - I found it totally fascinating and quite intriguing that he didn't consider himself to be a great painter. He certainly had the personality that Bill didn't have.
@@scarz1951 Seduce the canvas, that would be something to behold :-)
What a great video lesson. The scene reminds me on a vaccation trip in Austria. I cant wait to give it a try! Thank you Paul!
Cheers Petra from Kologne
Glad you enjoyed it Petra!
Beautiful ! The way you explain steps and how to mix the colors by % is so helpful! I love your videos and look forward to more!! Thank you for sharing your wonderful talent and those beautiful dogs!!😀
Thank you so much! - that's very kind!! 😀
Another great tutorial. Thanks Bob! I mean Paul!
No worries!
Absolutely beautiful, thanks Jkl
I did enjoy a lot, Paul!!! I felt very happy and relaxed the whole time. It is soooo beautiful, I could spend a whole day just watching you paint. Thank you so much Paul. 😊😊😊😊
You are very welcome
Gorgeous!
Thank you! 😊
Love the pastel touches
Thanks Joyce!
great videos and good to here different, lively background music instead of the plinky-plonk piano music that many others use every time 👍🏽
Glad you enjoyed it! - ta!
I like it a lot! Starting tomorrow morning. Thanks!
Have fun!
I had a wee snigger at the watercolour police, I've already been told off for signing in ink as that makes it mixed media apparently! So it was with glee I got the pastels out and just for good measure a scrape of bleed proof white for the water highlights. All joking aside, fab tutorial, I always learn something in your tutorials, the guidance is so good I always manage to produce something I'm pleased with.
Great to hear Kerry!
In the beginning I was petrified when you put this blue. In the end you are the winner.
Thank you! Cheers!
Great video. Simple and easy to follow
Well done
You are the best
Thank you very much Paul
You are very welcome
i love this man
