I'm learning to paint, self-teaching and using youtube tutorials like this. I'm a perfectionist so accepting my beginner work is hard, but I'm willing to try to let perfection go. Art is very therapeutic for me, as I cope with PTSD
that's great Alicia.. It will help you with your PTSD.. I am too suffers from anxiety before. I am now almost free from it. thank you very much and have fun painting... :)
Brilliant! They are the most beautiful clouds! I picked up a paintbrush for the first time 3 weeks ago - at the ripe old age of 51! For years I told myself I had no artistic talent. At last I'm able to accept less than perfection and allow myself to learn and make mistakes. Art is bringing me SO MUCH JOY! Videos like this help enormously. Thank you for your help!
for easier clouds, 1. paint shape of cloud in the darkest color the cloud will be. 2. paint the liter parts where they're supposed to be im the picture 3. add highlights on the cloud 4. blend. 5. enjoy
I am watching your video with my grandson..and he goes..."wish I can paint as good as he does!".. You hands are amazing! Thanks for the tutorial. And you are right, painting needs a lot of patience..and a lot of talent.
@@jmlisondra yes, your the best artist of clouds on UA-cam- please consider doing a cloudscape....puffy pink clouds with various values. ...your clouds today are also much better.... A storm cloudscape...also.. Also....water techniques...how to paint just waves...like viewing the surface of ocean....dark blue and gold sunlight...
Have been trying to learn how to paint clouds for over a year, your lesson is absolutely fantastic and very useful . Thank you for sharing your talent with us all
Thank you John. This is indeed one of the best cloud tutorials l’ve ever seen. Great job again! This is prove that nature can really talk through humans! You have simple but powerful style, just like a Mother Nature!
Watching you do the clouds really helped me. I have been trying to paint in two clouds on a painting for a couple of weeks and I finally see what I have been doing wrong. Thank you ever so much and please keep doing your videos. I subscribed to your chanel so I could keep up with your work. I feel like a hundred pounds have fallen off my shouders watching your work, thank you again. From Texas and still painting!
I have never been able to get my clouds to look like this. Sometimes i spend most of my time on the sky trying to get it just right. Thank you for this video, I too am a self taught painter. I love to paint and your tutorials are so perfect and easy to follow!!
thank you Julie... From the time you're trying it again, there will be changes and that changes is your current improvement... So keep painting, trying it again is really a good idea...
I truly appreciated this video because I've been struggling with clouds lately and you have organized this lesson into steps that are perfect for a person like me to follow. Thanks again for your expert instruction!
Absolutely mesmerising..........I can sit and watch you for hours which I am literally doing. You have an amazing God given talent. I want to paint like you........
who else here learned how to paint with youtube videos like this?is it just me?.......oh!and by the way Ty for your beautiful painting skills I learned how to paint clouds.i loved it keep up the good work dude!
This is one of the best cloud painting tutorials I have ever seen. It works for oils too. It's amazing, it starts so easy that if I hadn't seen the result before, I would have probably skipped the video. But it turns out so well. Awesome!
thank you and sorry about that. this was one of my first long videos. I was not confident enough to use my voice but I am using my own voice now on my new videos.
Gracias Jhon. Una hermosa clase con un maravilloso resutado final. Serávun placer para mi seguirte a traves de tus videos.. Saludos desde Argentina. Lili
Brilliant, self-taught is the way to go. I have not had an art lesson since leaving school 35 years ago, but five years ago started to paint, and now use the name Vincent Dontdoit (pronounced "Dhondwah") for my artistic works. I might add some clouds to my pictures now. Thanks.
Well, I must say that it was POETRY IN MOTION to watch you bring those clouds to life! I so enjoyed seeing how you put the finishing touches on the clouds at the end of the video. I thank you and my heart thanks you for making me believe that I can do this. Thank you much for sharing your beautiful self-taught talent! WHAT A GIFT you have been given! Great tutorial....
Self taught! Brilliant results 😃 excellent teaching, tutorial! Thank you so very much! As beginner, i am delighted to receive your tips and techniques. 😁💜💕🌈
Hey you are right! Maybe you won't get it right the first time but if you keep trying and not give up you will master it and that's what I did. Thanks for the lesson
I'm an absolute beginner and thank you for this video !!!!!!!!!!! I'm a little nervous to start but, gotta step outta the comfort zone. Again, thank you.
I returned for a "refresher" lesson. The second time around was just as exciting as the first time! Thank you, thank you, thank you! I think I am on my way to getting this done. :)
John magne Lisondra In whatever case, it was rude for me to put it like that, I could have been much more civil. I apologize, I don't always think before I say (or write) something. Despite the narration the video was great. I'm glad you've continued to make videos I look forward to watching them.
Art of John Magne Lisondra, I to apologize for my earlier post, your art is beautiful,and so what if the monotone is funky? Be confident in who you are,dont doubt yourself for one second...
Best clouds ever....even more impressive is the fact that you are a self taught artist... you have natural talent...I love your work..you make it look so much easier than it really is.
It's a great tutorial. The lesson I've learnt after trying it is that this method is suitable for evening skies, but it doesn't work for morning skies.
Wow, very beautiful clouds. I am a beginner and having trouble creating clouds, I will try and follow what you have done. Thanks so much for an awesome cloud video and sharing it with all of us.
Just beautiful. I too, am a self taught artist. It encourages me to know that someone that does such beautiful art is as well. Thanks for teaching us. :)
Wonderful clouds! I am a painter too, I mostly do eastern folk art paintings using hard lines and no transparency. I want to practice getting more textures and trying new things. This was a joy to watch. I would've loved to have seen small glimpses of when you mix the paint. I'm going to try this one one these days! Have an awesome day!

Those aren't happy, little clouds. They are emotionally charged clouds of desire with dramatic presence! Bravo, John!!

The clouds look alive ... Too good !
Affreen M Jha Thank you so much Affreen... :)
Great tutorial - The only drawback was that it was using a computer generated animation voice instead of the voice of a real person.
thank you and sorry about that. this was one of my first long videos. I was not confident enough to use my voice but I am using my own voice now on my new videos.
@@jmlisondra Very happy you're not using that irritating computer voice any more and wonderful job on the tutorial.
@@jmlisondra maybe voice over it and repost?
@@rhapsody9771 @G I Maybe just deal with it this time? Y'all are being sort of rude to him.
I think it’s fine! You did a great job! It’s a great tutorial! 👏👏👏👏👏☁️☁️❤️
These are the best looking clouds I've ever seen.
I've never felt so empowered by computer-generated voice
I know right...my neighbours are gonna see a lot of clouds on their walls..!!!
John you have a great voice!! Especially for teaching -so patient and kind.
This was wonderful thank you! It really helped me because you actually explained why you did each step. Thank you once again
