There is no need to fuss about squeaky floor boards or an infinite amount of umms. We are all here to be inspired by your fluid and calm approach to painting a Stuart. This was incredibly informative as always.

Obviously this is not first time watching this
Personally I enjoy you being you .
Relax no apologies needed.
There will always be those who ave no appreciation. But the rest of us absolutely love you
So grateful for your teaching
I love just having you paint while I paint. I never wanted to paint until your channel showed up.
Love it ❤❤❤❤
I was with you until the end. Thank you so much for sharing your work. I'm 73 and just trying to play. I started in my late 60's and I find that instead of sitting around feeling blue painting allows me to play. I thank you for letting us look over your shoulder. I am one who has tended to paint tightly and I want to loosen up...which sounds funny from an old broad like me! I look forward to the 2nd part of this work!
Maybe the best video you've done, next best thing to actually being with you. I watch all your videos from beginning to end and then again several times more. Your "ums and ahs" do not detract nor does your shoulder, don't waste any time worrying about that. Great to hear the sound of the brush on the canvas. One great revelation has been the creation of cloud effects using rolled up paper - I've always limited myself to the big brush so far. Please do more of these "live" commentaries. No microphone popping at all btw.
I always watch your videos until the end. Sometimes several times. I always learn something new.
I would really love to have a “ one on one “class with you someday!
And by the way I watch all your videos from start to finish, it would be useless the other way
Thank you Stuart, I really enjoyed that. I understand that UA-cam encourages short videos, but i really appreciate an in depth length as I like to see the whole process, including palette and tissues and all the little things that I'm not aware of until I see them. I know that i often start watching a clip, not just yours, and then end up finishing watching on one of my other devices. I don't know if the analytics capture that, i'm not sure how the analytics works. But I am here to the end and thoroughly enjoying your talking while you paint, although I also like the voice over. you have a very soothing voice and you could probably recite the alphabet and I'd still enjoy it. I wish people would keep their opinions to themselves sometimes, as when they see things, like cats, it's a reflection on their internal workings rather than a valid opinion on someone else's creation. but that is just my opinion of course. :) you just keep being you and putting out great content. you are always an inspiration to me. Thank you
Thank you!
You mentioned that you hoped the live commentary would be successful. I vote yes. It’s a pleasure to watch and I always learn so much.
As for that painting... powerful, amazing and an inspiration.
"Almost like owning a dog with a handle on it"...I had to pause the video because I about died...hahaha
This video was exceptional, felt like was there. Better you narate as you paint, much preferred. always a huge thankyou
I have always been fascinated with the sky. That’s why I love your work. While watching this video I had the thought that being able to watch an artist work is in itself another form of art. Really appreciate being able to watch your work unfold.
"Trust me, I'm a Cloud Painter."
Beautiful. I like when you paint and talk.
Love listening to you as you teach.
Hi Stuart,
My wife and I enjoy all of your videos, but we both thought the new approach was a great success - your personality came through more strongly on an entertainment level, and you demonstrated things more clearly to camera. Curious to know what camera the postie will be bringing you. Looking forward to the next one.
I have a big problem with not loosening up when I paint as many do. Thank you Stuart for showing me your ways and thoughts. Love your channel.
oh my word, this is just priceless information stewart, this is going to help me loads in my sky painting thank you so much my friend your a legend and a true gentleman and of course a FABULOUS ARTIST :}
You are very welcome!
This was a great lesson. Thank you! My main interest is painting landscapes, so I thoroughly enjoyed this video. I watched it in its entirety, as I always do with your videos. I've watched other painting videos by other artists, but most are not landscapes, so they lose me. I get notified when you post a video, and I try to watch them very soon afterwards.
I like hearing you as you are actually painting - thanks for trying this :)
Start to finish a great tutorial. I always watch to the end and your voice is wonderful. There are many painting tutorials that are 2 plus hours. So I think people that want to learn watch the whole video.
Great Video, watched till the end , I've watched the illusion of detail awhile ago and both have given me the confidence to not worry and overthink the process. Great narration thanks for taking the time to teach us. Regards Steve from Zambia
I am so mesmerised by your voice and instruction which is delivered in such a natural way. What a wonderful way to start my day and give me energy to go and paint. I watched it until the end and thank you as you are an inspiration.
Stuart,hello from America. I love your voice, it works talking while your painting. I hope you'll do it again. I always enjoy watching u paint. Thank you sooo much . Stay well. God bless.
I watch all your videos to the end, but, being impatient, I watch at 1.25 speed. (I watch many others' videos at 1.5.) I often watch yours in two or three sessions, but it's a rainy, cool morning here, so I watched straight through, pausing only to refill my coffee mug.
I don't paint in oil, so I can't apply all your techniques, but I enjoy visiting with you and absorbing your style, your approach to the art of painting. And I always remember to click Like.
Hello Stuart, its been a while since I viewed your amazing sky paintings. I really enjoy watching how you build up the drama in your sky scenes. Its encouraging to realise that you can put a number of different colours on the canvas or board to then push around and mess about with to form the pattern of sky your trying to achieve to your satisfaction. I really like also the freedom of expression that you get by utilizing this loose approach to developing a landscape. Thank you for demonstrating this method. I have tended to incorporate these lessons in my amateur painting style and actually produced a couple of paintings following your tuition and am quite pleased with the outcome. Thumbs up to you Stuart.
That is so funny counting the umms or ahs, however the spelling goes...haha. Now I am overthinking mine too. Don't worry about it much, I don't think we do. I just love that Phathlo Blue and Payne's Gray.
Fantastic painting as always! I really enjoyed the live commentary! I hope you continue with it. I found it to be more engaging ☺️
Thank you! Will do!
Hello Stuart, i love your voice ... your stories are always like a small cloud for me, high ... and very soft ... mm. I'm glad to see you. I send a lot of energy
I think this is my favorite so far. Incredible as always. Listening to your mind work is both entertaining and instructional. Thank you.
Glad you enjoy it!
Excellent video, watched from beginning to end. Will you continue this painting in future videos? I appreciated the live instruction/narration as you filmed.
Yes I will, in about a week from now.
"And this is the automatic palate knife, you just apply it to the painting and it does the work for you"~Thank you for that!!!😜😆
Great video, again. I can’t understand how someone could start watching and head off after a few minutes. 😕 brush like a dog on a stick 😂 Not only do I enjoy your painting videos, your sense of humour cracks me up. Please keep em coming. I get very excited when I get a notification for your videos. Would love to see you finish off the previous painting you did. Thanks again Stewart. 😁
I'm still here and liked it very much. I'll be back. Thank you for your time 😊
I watched the whole thing. I always do. Your style sets right with me. I have been painting "intuitive landscapes" and since incorporating some of your techniques I am actually able to do more of what I want. I appreciate you offering these videos very much. Thank you.
I absolutely love your work. I’ll watch this video tomorrow again and try to keep pace.
Watched until the end. While I’m grateful for UA-cam, they’re quite often wrong about a lot of things. I’ll watch a full length painting tutorial from start to finish before a time-lapse or cropped video. Thanks for all you do.
Your comments crack me up, a small dog with a handle, priceless. Thank you.
I enjoyed that one too! Don't know where it came from!
@@StuartDavies To answer another of your questions, I always watch all the way through, however I will often watch in several parts, I will start watching on my PC, during breaks in my painting and will quite often finish watching on my TV when my wife has gone to bed. Oh and I like the smell of liquin too.
Watched to the end! It’s my third time watching. Fascinating. Keep all the “ums”. Part of the charm
All the best ! British Columbia Canada
I'll be honest, i watch the beginning and like skip to half way through the video and then watch to near the end lol
I always watch beginning to end. You never bore me! Appreciate your teaching.
I appreciate that!
Enjoyed you talking while you paint. I did make it to the end!
Beautiful clouds. Bravo!
Great - again! Your paintings and lessons are addictive as well as instructive! I've never painted landscapes but I may just start. Will you also be posting yourself finishing the landscape part? I do hope so.
Thanks, Judith! Yes I will.
Stuart, this was just amazing, thank you so much for your time and talents shared. Too long, haha, not at all. I could have watched another hour at least. Very informative and one of the best videos I have ever watched. Thanks again.
Wow, thank you!
Watched to the end, always do, preferred the live running commentary, cracked up at the automatic palette knife paint application. If I am short of time, I watch a bit, pause and come back to it later.
Great to watch. Really liked that you talked while doing it 😁
We all see things or animals in the outdoor clouds. So why not in yours also.
I use the glass (with tape around the sharp edges ) from an old frame as a palet. It is easy to clean the paint off...scraping it off. Cheers!
I fell asleep the first view since my habit is to watch right before bed. I hope you know of ASMR, Stuart. But here I am again watching the 2nd time through to actually listen. I often view these 2 or 3 times. You’re very casual and encouraging which helps my anxiety knock it off while I’m trying to paint.
I'm the same lol, so relaxing to watch and listen too it makes me sleepy :-)
Very enjoyable. I liked the real time. I watch all of your videos in their entirety but not always in one sitting. 💚
I like your running commentary! I learned a lot!
I really enjoyed watching this excellent video (as I do all your videos). Also, I always watch the whole video! Thank you very much.
I just have to go paint now!
I'm one of your viewers who always watches right through to the end, Stuart. It helps that I live alone, so am no longer juggling a partner or children, so can watch videos uninterrupted!
Good teaching! When you get your new camera, consider setting it so that the viewer can see the entire canvas even as you work on discrete sections. I watched the whole lesson and learned a lot. I’ll be coming back for more.
Yes indeed I’m still here at the end as you said ,those of us that are inspired to learn are honoured to have a front row seat at your Studio space Im new to this type of art and very much appreciated your tips. Thankyou kindly
nice. helps gets me out of my current painting rut
Enjoyed watching from start to finish
Oh, yes, I watched it from beginning to end and backed it up a few times to watch certain steps. Your voice is soothing, my cat jumped up on the table and watched, too.
Stayed 'til the end (as usual). Great tutorial (as usual). You manage to create such interesting compositions effortlessly. A joy to watch, thank you.
When you're not chatting to us, do you listen to 'dramatic sky' music during your painting sessions?
Dramatic anything music. I'll have to check to see if there's any dramatic sky music :-)
I personally love everything about this channel the length your beautiful voice and your calm irony
I’m using an enamel tray for a palette. Also got a glass pane I could use which I want to cut to a small size to fit into my portable easel. Not sure I’ll bother.
Don’t worry about um’s! lol I doubt grammar cops and perfectionistas are gonna bother with this style of painting.
Just watched the whole video and noticed an interesting speckled bit of paint in the landscape that I think could be useful in painting outback scenes in Oz.
I'm still here right to the end. I always watch your videos to the end, I do enjoy them, and your rye comments. Look forward to the next one, with your new camera.
I appreciate that!
I'm still there at the end. Great work.
Mr Stuar, you are my new best friend😁 Please do video for glazing and next stage for this picture.
Definitely the videos are not to long, so just keep up like that! As for the sound, it is same for me, what ever is more comfortable for you.
Would there be a difference if use a stand oil instead of liquin, accept of drying time. What is the ratio of color and oil when drawing and glazing, may be 50:50? Thank you for sharing your techniques!
@11:01 you could easily switch from painting a dramatic sky to a dramatic seascape with a foundering ship in a storm, with exploding waves.... ;-)
35:10 Once I endetd up with 3 horizonts... there was not too much place for sky left I kind of like this painting haha. Thank you for another cool lesson Stuart!
Turner would be proud of you.
THANK YOU STUART!!!
Watched it speeded up to see if I liked the outcome :) then watched it to the end - struggled with stormy skies for nearly 2 years, but this is superb - very helpful, got hooked on your illusions of detail - thanks !
Awesome, thank you!
Love the clouds, watched it to the end. You have helped me immensely with my journey into oil painting.
Glad I could help!
How could you not watch till the end? Your sky is awesome. I love the boldness and drama of the clouds. Enjoyed listening as you painted, will be looking forward to seeing how the landscape finishes up. Appreciate your time, effort, and teaching style....thank you
Glad you enjoyed it
This painting reminds me of the moonlight works of Van Der Meer & Carl Ludwig Bille. Very dramatic & stunning. It is one of those skies that one cannot help staring at, as if their emotions or memories were on atmospheric display. I for one have been there many times! And yes, I am the one who saw the cats in the sky and personally, was delighted by it! LOL!
It shows how gentle you hold the knife when you lost it to the cloud.
Always watch your videos love your skies and I watch the whole video
I am loving this live instructional video. I have watched this twice and each time find something new. Even down to the "salad" makings. Thanks
Hello Stuart from California USA. Today happened to be the most beautiful clouds. Bumping white against a vibrant blue. I thought of you as I watched them go slowly by. I hope you and your family are well. This terrible time will end soon. They all do if you remember. Take care,
DONNA
I did indeed last the course! Stayed with it all the way though. And yes, I think that commenting as you paint is generally preferable to adding a commentary later; and that you do indeed need that bit of extra time - I hate sped-up painting videos - you learn nothing from them at all, and very little from those episodic ones, with chunks of painting time cut out.
Thank you Stuart!! I've just retired, moved to Fredericksburg Texas & started painting again (Aug 2022) & am thank-full to find you & your lessons!! You are so reassuring & relaxed about the painting effort & creativity ~ you express how I feel about the painting process & results, but discounted my ability because it's not like the artists I see in the galleries... but you've given me Hope!!! I'm also so glad to see someone of your caliber painting with those big household brushes - I thought I was crazy to use them, but Here YOU are!! Yippee!!!
ha ha ha I love your 'uhms and ahs' by the way!
Keep the "Ummms". They're part of the charm . . . leastways, that's my vote.🤗
I watched it in its entirely. Thank you.
I think this "live" method is great. I vote yes. And I had to laugh, the "uhm" doesn't bother me at all but I could tell it was making you a little leery at moments. You are so very entertaining, sir! :-)
nice video!!! very informative and entertaining
You probably already have but, have you thought about the coated (grease resistant) paper plates? It's what I use as uncoated absorbs.
Also, all coatings are not the same. You have to find one that's good.
I've watched every video to the very end.
I have some of those. The problem is I use so much oil it drips off the edge!
Thanks, I really enjoyed this lesson. Although it’s unfinished it still looks fantastic 👍
Long videos are good! Thank you for sharing.
I watched to the end. Always do. I want to learn. Thank you. Hope to come see you in France when the world opens up again
And whenever I here the intro music, I know I am safe☺️💋❤️
Ha ha rogue pallette knife. Great video
I know you must get tired of hearing "Absolutely beautiful!", but that's all I can think to say. I learn so much listening to you think as you paint. Your commentary is the most valuable teaching part! To only see one do something is not really that helpful if the student doesn't understand WHY. Thank you so much for these videos! 11 minutes is only for entertainment. I approach your videos as an art class, so I watched till the end. Your sense of humor keeps the coma away, and your voice is concentrative thought and pleasant. Well done! Thank you!
I love all of the lessons within the lessons...
I Look the whole Video with Wine, cheese and bread. Then i am painting. Thank you for the Inspiration and the nice sunday evening.
I watch all the way to the end...and love it!! Your voice and humor are a definite plus. Beautiful painting Stuart! Thank you!
I certainly watched to the end, as always and rewatched several sections. Thank you very much, Stuart!
Awesome.....as always your videos fill my head with possibilities of using your techniques for my own ends......in acrylics!!
Love your work, Your skies always scare me because I think you are over doing it, as with your landscapes , I keep shouting "Leave it , less is more!" I always see an effect that I don't want to see you lose. I am a, as YOU say, a sixty three year old,- sixteen year old, which was, when I started using oils and acrylics. Landscapes have always been my unknown factor. NOW, after watching your videos... till the end ! I now know how to do it. Thank you.
The sky is beautiful!!!!
I enjoyed this episode, but was disappointed with the big red blob that you weren't able to finish because of time,it over powered and stud out. Looking forward to the next one.
I've watched your videos and this one is easier to enjoy...the flow is better when your painting and talking at the same time if my feedback matters at all....please do more skies...maybe few sunsets with beautiful colors. And a storm sky with clouds and storm clouds at the horizon.
I don't think the red ochre in the sky works....need to stick with tonal blues or white. I love your paintings and I love your very soothing voice. You could talk me into anything and I am 90 years old! Am still painting every day.
Watching again, and maybe more than that! You make it look so easy, I am still trying! Thank you so much, love your skies, painting, and style.
Just found your channel! I'm realy enjoying your way of teaching. Love how you show the hole process of the painting. Now I just want to paint.
love your technique and style been having trouble with my clouds, i work in acrylics your instructions are just the ticket your commentary is top notch I get the humour, Kim from NZ
