This video really demonstrates a lot of techniques quickly: creating a gradient palette, mixing, brush treatment, blending strokes. You show more than you tell, move very efficiently, and mix in your own personal tips/tricks. Everything is well lit and easy to see and follow - thanks so much!

@josephconard5210 3 года назад

Have been painting for 50+ years. I have just learned new tricks. Thanks great video.

@sheilaharrington-shaw6793 2 года назад

Hi Felix & Wifey, I have struggled for so long with getting the first blended layer on my canvas. So I have done a lot of stressing each time I did a painting and sometimes took me a good few hours to start because of this. I have watched this video a couple of times and decided I would give it a try. I'M SO HAPPY you have solved my problem. Thank you so much I have found your method much easier and now I'm not afraid to start my paintings anymore. THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU. Sheila.

@ellenronis7944 2 года назад

I love your techniques.. very easy to follow. Thank you .. I just started painting after a 20 year absence.. thank you and God has blessed me with this. God bless you and your walk with him.

@christinashields5188 4 года назад

I've just become serious and committed to painting everyday, however technical parts do not inspire me to continue. This is exactly what I needed to restore the original feeling I fell in love with. Other video's are well beyond my skill level and lose me soon after I begin. I enjoy your style, voice and pace...Thankyou so much !

@dianefox4990 3 года назад

You are so talented...and it's a joy to listen to you teach with that calm, confident voice. Thank you! I am going to try this!

this was a great tutorial, i went step by step and my end result was a beautiful blended sky. Can't wait to do it a couple more times and start to gain more confidence in building depth into my painting, instead of a flat beginner look. Thanks Feliks.

@seojacksonvilleusa 4 года назад

Man that palette of paint looked like ice cream! Great job and thanks for the positive things you do for everyone. Excellent.

@lulugregory3246 4 года назад

That is such a good idea to “lay out” your colour mixes on the pallet before you start, I have never thought of doing that before which is probably why one colour is pretty much dry by the time I get to start the next and I have so much trouble blending... so clever! I also like your brush blending.. so often I “lose” my lighter colours... will,definitely give this a try. Stunning result! Thank you

@SharonMorthierArt 5 лет назад

Thank you so much for this tutorial! Blending has always been difficult for me. I tend to wash out the colors with the darker one. The uplift technique is excellent, light to dark. I appreciate you taking the time to show us this. God bless!

@deenanixon4103 3 года назад
