Michelle, you are a phenomenal teacher. Using just your normal voice, no affectation, you are able to articulate everything--while your hand is so busy. Thank you for the detailed inspiration. God bless you. You are a generous soul.
Hi Michelle. I’m 71 years old and never painted in my life until last June. I’ve been watching your videos, which have helped me tremendously. Thank you for your detailed explanations.
Yesterday my 10 year old niece and I started this tutorial and I finished mine tonight. I absolutely love how you teach. My niece Caitlyn is learning to work slowly and pay attention from you. Her sipping drink of choice is chocolate milk.
Beautiful 🥰. I really admire your fantasy and enthusiasm with all your amazing paintings. I love taking out all my equipment and paint along with you🥀💚🥀. Thank you so much for your great teaching skills and for making this channel 😍😍
Wow Michelle, havent got confidence to get this deers face and chest like that. ......yet. had better get practising even with expert tuition. Amazing. You always do animal furs and feathers so well effortlessly. Thats what makes you the Fine Artist that you are. Will eatvh again andagain to.get a semblance of yours. Thanks so.much but feel defeated before I begin
Hi Michelle, this deer in winter is absolutely gorgeous. I love the snowy , cold, out of view look in the background. I started painting this yesterday. Today I started the deer and my son came in this evening and said, “Mom, I love it! This is my new favorite!” Your tutorials are the BEST!
I loved painting this!!!! 🌲🦌❄️🖼 My Deer in Winter was claimed before I even finished it!! Such a fun tutorial, I will definitely do another for myself. 😆 P.s. never in a milling years would I ever thought I could actually paint a deer! You made it easy. Thank you so much Michelle, you are an amazing instructor!🖌🎨💗
Wow, I love this background!. And thank you so much for explaining how to get warm vs. cool greys and how to use them. I'm thinkin' I might paint this for my hubby for XMas as he feeds about 20 deer at our house daily, and one is a gorgeous buck! I love and watch you faithfully and I'm a patron. I've paid over $30 per painting class for years, and you give us so much more for a few bucks a month. Thanks Michelle, and keep going :)
This is such a sweet note, thank you for sharing your feelings with me! Your husband is going to love such a special gift from you. Thanks for watching and giving me such great compliments! Have fun painting, Michelle
I just love how the trees look all misty in the back and the darker front ones look so bold. The deer is so handsome...I wonder if he's looking for Father Christmas. Beautiful painting, Michelle you can feel the chill in the air. 🦌❄🌲
Outstanding !! thanks a lot for breaking down the deer part with such elaboration. So far the best artist to follow to actually grasp the details of a painting.
Thank you so much Michelle. I added a frozen turquoise pond in the foreground and a crimson Cardinal sitting on top of a fore pine. My wife and her mother now have a new favorite :-)
Usually I watch you on my computer, but when I caught a glimpse of these spruces on a plasma, it took my breath away! They are totally authentic and magnificent. Thank you, Michelle! You bring a joy in our lives. I wish you the best!
A wonderful picture, I love it, you can really feel the cold in the forest. Especially the structure of the deer again, thank you very much Michelle for the great picture.🥰😍😍😍🥰🌲🌲💯👏👏👏💝👌👍👍🌲
michelle i really love the way you use measurements in your paintings; you said it helps you to keep your focus; and at one point you mentioned ( in your equation ) so yes, i think it helps you to keep your geometrical perspective , distancing, and all of that . i adore your kind of painting; and love you more
I adore your style and the way you teach! I kept hoping that as you were describing all the fantastic wildlife you get to watch on your property, that you would say Bigfoot, too! Dang. :) Thanks for sharing your art. Blessings from the great Pacific Northwest, Lakewood Washington! 💛🖤💛 Stacy's Artful Heart.
Oh wow..this is beautiful!!! This would make a great gift painting for those who love to hunt!! Or for those who just love winter nature. Thank you for this!!
From realistic to whimsical Michelle you are so talented.I watch you faithfully because I enjoy how you are not afraid to laugh about yourself if you mess up a little. Love you and your painterly mind!!! Ha ha😊
I was going to have to paint this 2x , but now I won’t. I’m getting the original!! Yay! Order placed! 🤣😻 You know I love your nature paintings Michelle 🥰
Thank you Michelle! I just found your videos less than month ago (this "Deer in Winter" one first). The deer intrigued me and drew me in. Before, I never painted animals. You have inspired, encouraged and taught me through each video. Not only animals, but other tips and techniques as well. Tonight, I viewed some of your website and am encouraged again about how your cancer journey led you to this incredible venture you are currently on. Thank you for what you do helping others. God bless!
Hi there Michelle, I'm a new subscriber! I just wanted to express to you how fantastic your teaching skills are. I'm looking forward to more of your videos! God Bless!
I just love the way you show people how to paint, I have a friend who wanted to paint and she said she has two left hands but I showed her your paintings and she’s followed along and she just loves it so thank you very much. I hope you will do a Santa Claus I would like to do one for my granddaughter❤
It's been a while since I stopped by to enjoy watching you bring your painting to life. Your talent still amazes me at how you can do that! ... just a few strokes of that seemingly magical brush and "pop" there it is ... completed. Wow, Michelle. Great work! I just might give this one a try. Hope that you are well and staying busy. TFS
Buenos dias Michelle. Muchas gracias por tu increible trabajo. Yo estoy aprendiendo y disfrutando de tus preciosas creaciones, mientras me recupero de càncer. Gracias a ti me concentro en seguir tus instrucciones y me olvido de todo. Del dolor de la angustia y del miedo. Gracias y mil veces gracias.😘
Your trees when I saw you were using a large brush, I thought loudly, “How will you be able to see any detail using a large brush!!! No way she made those with a large brush!!” Well I was absolutely in awe of how masterfully you used the Large Brush so eloquently to add details to the trees and show branches in different directions with highlights of the snow!! That is why I am watching you and no one is watching me😁! You are truly great!! Thank you for teaching us!
Love this! We live in a condo and have deer that travel past our patio in the early morning. They stop by our bird feeder for some morsels of feed. Our street name is Deer Track Trail. I might try this one Michelle. You're awesome!
I love how you explain everything, the what, where and why. My winter trees are not defined, now I know how to do that thanks to you explanation. Love watching you. ❤
OH MY GOODNESS I ABSOLUTELY LOVE HOW YOU REALLY EXPLAIN WHAT YOUR DOING AS YOU GO. I LOVE LANDSCAPES. SO GLAD I FOUND YOUR VIDEOS. YOU MAKE IT LOOK SO EASY AND TURNS OUT SO BEAUTIFUL. THANK YOU SO MUCH
Goodness, we need more tutors like you!! Thank you sooooo much for all the information and tutorial!! I subscribed and turned on the notifications ❤❤❤❤
Michelle you are my favorite. I have learned so much!! This one has me STRUGGLING! Lol! For some reason trees are so hard for me. And the deer is kicking my butt. Not for lack of proper teaching though! I have loved every single one of your videos and I have several I painted and have received so many compliments!! Thank you!! ❤
