Difficult to express the joy of sitting down to watch another wonderful watercolor Wednesday. The music, the humor and the painting is top notch. Can't wait for the next one! 😀
Thanks to your great tutorials, Paul, I have painted over a hundred paintings in the past two years. Some of them are actually frame-able...actually a lot of them. I have 94 of them on my walls and use the walls of my garage for the overflow. You are such a blessing. Greensboro NC
Wow! That is the most beautiful English garden! I am excited to make some time and give this a try! I learn something new with every video you do. This time one of the things I learned is that you can eat a cucumber sandwich in less than 5 seconds 😳😂🤣. Also about putting the masking fluid on top of the dry paint for the flowers 🌺, among other thing’s! Thank you Paul
Gosh! So much to love about this painting. The stone walls, your use of ultramarine blue thru out…your comment about adding music while u paint ( i like Dire Straits greatest hits - keeps it moving along😆. The use of white gouache at end like the icing on the cake - stunning…Great project for showing many different shades of green. Ill b trying this one definitely. Getting ready for a local community art show of 55+ yr old artists here in California next week. There are a half dozen artists in class that follow you. Thank you Paul 4 continuing to inspire us.
Putting in the detail ,at the end of my paintings , I always thought it as my reward for a job well done, (wither the job was well done or not.).....🤣......This was so joyful to watch.....Thank you and your hard working wife for sharing once again!
Thanks Paul for your great tuition. Today I've been to my garden, where there is still snow. What a surprise to see your painting tonight - a colorful garden with ruins. I will paint with you and dream that my garden will be like yours. Nadezda, Saint Petersburg
Hi Paul. Loved todays painting. and the cucumber sandwich added a nice splash of humour. if it wasn't for your kindness in sharing your sketches I wouldn't have a clue as my pencil drawing skills are not at all good. So thanks again
I like the way how you paint, moreover your explanation is easy to understand for me . I am 75 years old and painting since several years. I fam lucky to meet your in this video. Thank you paul!
Hahaha, that was a BIG bite of cucumber sandwich. I love me some hot tea - I often call myself a "tea-a-holic," lol! I love this painting - the contrast you have in it is just so striking. ❤️
Paul, you're a real friend to have on Wednesday or any day. May God bless you and Margot for all your kindness. This painting takes me where I want to be. You also make that cucumber sandwich look delicious! 👌
Thank you for mentioning the amount of time the painting required. It helps the viewer understand their time commitment rather than thinking the painting is possible in 30 minutes… love your videos!
Maybe years from now and lots of practice, I will be able to paint like this. I love your painting style and the way you teach. Ever since i started watching you, my paintings have improved some. Thank you Paul.
Hello, I’m French and I love watching your videos . Thanks a lot. I’m not so good but nevertheless my English is better now😊 We can really improve our watercolour work with your advice . And listen to you is always a pleasant moment
Your beautiful garden of flowers green plants and the ruins combined together make a very gorgeous piece of artwork. It is somehow a coincidence that I had been looking at some ancient ruins on the internet last night. Thank you so much for this lovely painting and another great tutorial.
Brilliant! Love how you say being loose is more enjoyable and often is a great learning curve. There are no mistakes 😁 The diamond tip I picked up here is using masking fluid OVER watercolour paint. I feel super daft not to have considered that!! Thank you ❤️
What a beautiful painting. The last addition of a little pastel to bring the plant forward was such a great tip. You are a great inspiration. Thank you!
been watching for 6 months now and after a gap of many many years ive picked up my old paint brushes and got painting again all thanks to you and your youtube vids , please please never stop doing them as they are just great. many thanks Steve
So *this* is how you paint a vibrant garden instead of just the individual flowers within it. I'll be watching this one several times, I think. Thanks so much.
Inspite of being an exceptional painter and a great tutor, you are also an awesome story teller. Even when the days are tough, watching your video feels like a medication and it helps to calm the soul and bring smile😊
This is lovely. I learnt many tips from just this one video and even took notes. Looking forward to watching more. The cup of tea and cucumber sandwich made me laugh so much.
Ummm! Think I’ll go and visit this garden🤔. Thanks for yet another tutorial full of info. Many of us amateurs would have baulked at this photo because of the green but your explanations again give us the knowledge and confidence to have a go.thank you Pau.
There is nothing better than sitting down with my four legged friend and watching your videos at the end of a very long day. Thank you for the joy and peace you bring us each week!
LOL, I do so appreciate your humor. Thanks for the tips and also you read my mind as I was thinking how is he doing that directional splatting & then you showed us. Thanks again for another lovely video.
Hi Paul.. I am new to painting. Never lifted a paint brush in my life 6 months ago. Now I eagerly wait for your video every week. I was inspired by your easy-to-understand and humorous style of teaching art. I love love love this piece of art.. Thank you again for teaching us on RU-vid!
Lovely study, can hear the crunch on the gravelly path and were you to brush your legs on some of those plants you'd need to scratch! Great texturing! Thankyou! XXX
My first one is definitely not frame-worthy - but I'm so glad I tried this. Making green landscapes is so hard to do and even this clumsy first attempt looks livlier, more 3-D and real. Thanks for this. I'll do it again, maybe a couple of times, to get the hang of it. Whoopee!
The best bit, that really brought it all to life? The lemon pastel on the bush in the middle, it made it really pop. Fab. I have that palette, and it was really useful to see you use it, your mixes etc.
Another great tutorial. I am glad that the decorative thingies were kept to a minimum and the half wall with the lions head (or whatever it is) was edited out. I can't wait to try this one.
Hello from Texas Paul! Gorgeous painting! Thanks for sharing your skillful and creative techniques. Your painting certainly reflects decades of experience.
I've been watching for a while now and I have to say you just blow me away with your paintings. I hope I'll get there some day, and I ditto what Tanya Schutte says...just a joy.
Hi Paul, hope you and your wife are well. I've not painted for a few months, but this is the first video I've been recommended. I had my settings to receive all posts. Just letting you know as maybe I'm not the only fan that's missed out. Had I been painting I would have been more proactive and realised sooner. Beautiful painting as always
Thanks again Paul for another winner. If my wife likes it, which she does in this case, you know you've done well. She's the best critic of my efforts as she has no fear telling me when I've gone astray. I assume Margot is the same.
You've painted 🎨 my dream garden... I have something similar on our wall... arched garden pathway!!! Thank you so very much Sir Paul! Please keep all your videos on utube... hope they don't expire! I just started using Arches cold press and oh my... another learning curve! HA! Happy Easter, a California Gramma ❤️
So I’m a little behind on the tutorials, as you can see, but I LOVED seeing your palate as you painted this garden scene. I often get lost on the consistency of the paints and it was perfectly clear in this tutorial because we can see your palette. Thank you so much for showing it and I hope you put your palette in view for future paintings.
Hi Paul, I love the way you present your tutorials. I am a real beginner at painting at 75 (just) and it seems that I must be the best theoretical artist in Hampshire!! Your and Margot’s acting skills remind me of my late husband and me enjoying great times in Amdram, especially in our annual Music Halls. I binge watch Art programs when I need reflective times, but cannot access the ‘LIKE’ unless linking the TV with my phone, but love them all!!!!! Thank you for making me happy, and I promise to put brush to paper very soon!!! 😁😁
I discovered your tutorials recently and I learn a lot! I have been painting for many years, but too detailed. So I admire your loose painting style! This garden painting is beautiful, I love the subject, I visited various gardens in Kent and Sussex in the past and painted some of them!
Love the practice for enhancing and exaggerating the original. I have taken so many photos in our woods but they are so one dimensional in summer. This encouraged me to dig them out and get creative. Will finish the stone arch tomorrow. Thanks for another fun lesson and a great afternoon. 😉
Loved the lesson.Never thought of putting the flowers in first, great idea. The techniques will help me in a painting I'm about to start. It was, as always, informative and delightfully laid back.
Thanks Paul for a "real time" pep talk on teaching us a loose style of painting. My artwork is guided by your fun tutorials and the community that surrounds it.
