I did the exercise in this video and it was the best watercolor I’ve ever did. Thanks

Best lesson ever! So happy your channel appeared in my feed.

Glad you are back! LOVE your work! We beginners need you!!

This os the essence of watercolor painting, thankyou you Master painter.

Thanks so much for this wonderful tutorial, Paul! Amazing what 3 values can become in the hands of a great artist!

I have been looking for this for ages

Thanks very much Paul for an inspiring tutorial. I've just found your channel and subscribed.

Excellent explanation and demonstration. Thank you for this wonderful video. It helped me a lot...👍

Dear Paul thank you for your didactic lesson ; Alex

I agree with Caroline T. I hope to see alot more.

Loved this ! Lucid ! You've deconstructed this concept so perfectly.

Wow. This has made the most sense to me about value and simplifying. Thank you for sharing your art

Amazing tutorial! More like this please, composition basics, simplifying, shading shapes in watercolor! Great teaching! Do have a book with these basics?

Thanks Sir, this is what is called SIMPLIFICATION 🙏

More tutorials please thank you

I’m struggling as a beginner. That helped a lot.

Thank you very much

Even the value study is beautiful

GREAT VIDEO.. thankyou! I like to draw and sometimes paint outdoors. I struggle a lot to decifer tonal values, because when i look at all the different colours in the scene, colour seems to dominate for me..... Even though I do see shades in the colours ... I cannot seem to be able to group the different colours together into their shared tonal value groups.

wonderful tutorial! Thank you so much.

I absolutely love how you simplified this!

Good teaching. Thanks

I've been struggling with light and shadows. This is extremely helpful. I look forward to trying this. Thank you!

Simply one of the best explanations of value I've ever seen, thank you so much.

What a great Lesson!!! Thank you so much, this make so much sense!!!

What an insightful Video. Before it was over I had my pad and pencil out. Ty for Sharing your experience and knowledge. I'm going to go see your Videos on the link you provided to another person in these comments. Ty

Wow! This was a huge lightbulb moment for me.. thank you.

Brilliantly 👏 explained. So helpful. Thanks very much..i have been struggling to understand and implement this. So much clarity now.

Terrific lesson. Simplify. Thank you so much

Where is the next video? He mentions its in Art class 123

This is really helpful as I always paint straight away not even thinking about the source of light. But from now on I will make sure to do a monochrome study first before going to the final canvas. Thank you so much!

Very VERY interesting indeed! Thank you for sharing.

Paul I took your class in Rockland This was a wonderful surprise

This video is just what I was looking for! I'm done with the 1,000 hour dry on dry paintings I almost never finish. I'm so excited again to simplify using this strategy. Value studies make for valuable future work.

Thank you Paul for bringing this tutorial to us. It's really helpful. I am new to watercolors and you can understand how important this lecture for a beginner. Really really thank you for putting your valuable efforts.

Painting is about logic and understanding the subject. This lesson demonstrates it.

Brilliant. You are a great teacher. Thanks for your help

Thank you very much for the great lesson! My only question is: to me the greenish field is lower in value (darker) than the lighthouse, but you painted the lighthouse darker than the field. Would you tell me why you chose to do it that way? It works well as it is, but I wonder how it will be if you do it differently.
