I'm trying out a 100% cotton watercolor board from Crescent by doing this spontaneous landscape in a 3 color + neutral tint limited palette color scheme. Plus, I'm using the new Waffle Flower swatch stamps to create a color story card for recording color schemes that I like and might want to use again.

I couldn't have imagined the result in a million years. Amazing.

@angiadcock8196 Год назад

Months later and this is still my favorite painting you’ve done. The color story is just gorgeous. The layout looks much better than most of the paintings I plan out. It’s just perfect I think. I love it so much.

@kerryk6472 9 месяцев назад

You are a freak’n genius! Lol. I had to just sit and watch in awe. I could not “see” the blobs you painted could amount to anything so beautiful. I hope someday I have the gift to see what you can see. ❤

@kevinevans8505 9 месяцев назад

Wow ! All hail the blessed tree trunks. Nice job.

@Roslyngal 6 лет назад

Outstanding, Steve! I could watch an entire channel of just these. You pack so much information and advice into them. It’s a rare mind that can be free enough to paint in abstract spontaneity, while at the same time giving detailed analysis. Watching the foreground, middle and background appear all of a sudden from random blobs is magical! Thanks, more please.

@maryriley6163 5 лет назад

Great limited color scheme. I like the misty look and the purple tree down front. It has an oriental feel. Thanks so much for this demonstration.

@grampajeff1 Год назад

I really enjoy the way you force the discovery of your spontaneous watercolor creations. This one is especially an amazing work. Nice job!

@dianeknott3655 2 года назад

It looks like a rainy day up here in this part of north central PA in the forest. Love this, Steve!

@joannebindell2295 Год назад

This is my favorite painting and the colors are so subtle creating a soft relaxing picture.

@lindaholbrook66 6 лет назад

Wow! I never cease to be amazed at your spontaneous painting techniques. Love watching you work.

@goat8477 Месяц назад

Masterful! I am almost tempted to say: "And behold - it was very good"

@jerrywilliams5963 3 года назад

It’s like magic to see you turn your drips and drops into a landscape. Beautiful. Nancy from Damascus, Oregon

@holly-anne680 8 месяцев назад

As you were putting in your washes and your water spray , letting it run and mingle , I got worried (for myself) I didn't see anything, but as soon as you put in your "sticks" it all became clear.....I have a LOT of practicing to do......devoted to do this type of painting when I start painting again......Thank you so much again!

@russellmiles8783 6 лет назад

😮. Makes me think of Arthur Rackham's fairy tale illustrations. Fabulous.

@carolinewithers1647 Год назад

This is the first time I've watched one of your spontaneous paintings and my mind was moving in the same direction as yours. I was seeing the need for depth and the need to soften that stark white. I couldn't have imagined you'd make something from that mess at first, but it turned out great.

@gorankaivankovic4292 2 года назад

I did enjoy watching you painting this picture.

@vespa4jen 5 лет назад

Wow, wow, wow. Incredible how you pulled off this spontaneous landscape. I worried for a long time that it wasn’t going to work, but, you are amazing. It’s gorgeous and mystical. Thank you, Steve for posting your always fantastic tutorials.

@cambiumlayer1318 5 лет назад

Spontaneously done & intentionally beautifully finished.

@liliawebb9377 5 лет назад

There is a little bit of white paper showing through on the right between the distant treeline and land ---from here it looks like housing and with a couple of horizontal lines could add roof lines; just how it looks from sitting in my chair. I've seen this before but checking it out again. Seeing something new each time. Cool! Really great spontaneous painting Steve.

@marushkamaron3133 5 лет назад

Your spontaneous paintings were the trigger for me becoming a patreon. Pure magic. Thank you for sharing.

@susanhamilton1822 6 лет назад

I really enjoy these and that colour palette makes me drool. I could watch you do this all day long. Thank you.

@suewilkinson910 6 лет назад

Beautiful. It looks like a Scottish mountain view. The colours are very Scottish. Heather and pine and rusty gold.

@JaredCullum 6 лет назад

Wow! I saw this on Instagram and didn’t realize it was spontaneous. It looks like a well-planned painting. Beautiful work. I love the texture you got and the atmosphere. Great video? Steve!

This was awesome loved it! Can't wait to try this idea. Loved the color combination also. Thanks

@mrspock2al 6 лет назад

Steve, fantastic job! The effect of adding the tree trunks was magical. Everything just came alive. I also think the color scheme was very pleasing. This is one of those paintings where you wish you could enter the scene and start exploring. Definitely makes me think of fall; my favorite season.

@cshula1 6 лет назад

Absolutely gorgeous!

@heatherrasmussen145 5 лет назад

This is just fascinating. I love how you're able to pull amazing landscapes from smooshing colors on paper. Gorgeous.

@deborahbarbaccia6813 2 года назад

WOW 😳, I just watch you develop a painting in amazement. I'm going to practice on some less expensive paper in smaller sizes. Also will purchase some of this watercolor board. Thanks for the review and tutorial. It's also nice to know that a seasoned artist like yourself, buys art supplies in local places. At reasonable prices.😃oh and I've seen that Waffle flower swatch used by a watercolor artist I follow, Lindsay Werich, The Frugal Crafter.

@HandmadeByLinanne 6 лет назад

Love, Love, Love! Three color WOW! So fun to watch you create this beauty! I’m at a lost for words to describe how much I enjoyed watching you create such a beautiful painting from just three colors! You are amazing, and I feel blessed to have found your channel. Thank you so much for taking the time to share your gift with all of us ❤️!

@liliawebb9377 6 лет назад

Love the color scheme Steven! Thanks for sharing and the boards look really nice painted up. As always, great tutorial and review.

@susinok 6 лет назад

It looked like an ink blot to me until the tree trunks were added. Than voila, a forest appeared! I love this. I will try doing one. I even have these paint colors, except for Neutral Tint. I'll use Paynes.

@laceandloom 6 лет назад

I’ve been wondering about these. Thanks for your review!

@yinniliu6849 5 лет назад

This is mind blowing! Thank you for this inspiring video. I'm still learning and almost lose hope. But your video shows me more of what watercolor can do. I'll keep learning and practising

@billdollar6155 5 лет назад

I simply adore the way you paint, impro is what I like more in painting and in music, thank you.

@heirloomme 6 лет назад

Thank you so much for this video. Just returning from a week long workshop on loose uncontrolled?? Watercolour... I struggled with this concept... instructor said that tight painting was ‘old’ and too controlled, and very outdated 😢 I came home that evening and immediately looked for you on RU-vid - and watched your video on “to paint loose or tight” - oh my my, that made me feel so much better about how I paint personally. You were the light in my dark day more than I could ever express!! As a ‘tight’ painter, I really wanted to try and loosen up some. I absolutely love this video, because it is very loose and spontaneous but still really beautiful. I will be trying this today. Thank you so much Steve. You are such an inspiration for me. HUGS

@mindofwatercolor 6 лет назад

Sheesh! Its like a religion with some of these people. Sad. In fact, representational art and realism has been on the rise in the last few decades. Not outdated at all.

@TheWhitmore6 6 лет назад

I love watching you paint! I'm a beginner in watercolor (or any artistic endeavor really) and I learn so much from your videos. I hope to some day develop an eye like yours where I can see the picture forming from the abstract.

@purplerose4150 6 лет назад

Loved your color palette and was so surprised with the outcome. How fun

@astridgarcia888 6 лет назад

Absolutely amazing !!!!! 😍 😍

@JoAnneMOwens 4 года назад

This limited palette is amazing! Lately I am really wanting to simplify my color choices which is how I discovered this video. I love muted tones so I am definitely going to use this combination. Thank you for your inspiration, Steve.

@dhirachakraborty9696 5 лет назад

I loved the spontaneous approach.I am so inspired to get to the paper. With the weather outside being rainy and misty, I think I am going to try out some colour combinations of my own. I don't have the exact paints but I can definitely come up with something that feels neutral and monsoon like.

@margaretgonzalez9350 5 лет назад

i enjoy these tutorials!....imagination in over-drive....thanks steve.

@dannythebear743 4 года назад

brilliant video... love how this all comes together....but damn... iwatched this video at 3am in the morning and now I have an urge to paint!

@maryanharrell5642 6 лет назад

Beautiful, Steve. I love the palette colors. I am going to try the techniques and the Crescent boards as well as the limited palette for my foliage sketches. Thanks so much!

@Kyomiibrown 6 лет назад

Excellent work. The board looks interesting, I think I might get one to try myself.

@lolab56 6 лет назад

Steve, this is absolutely beautiful! When I first looked at it I thought, what the dickens is he going to do with this?? I guess this is a lesson for those who are still learning to really look and see. Thanks so much for this. It's wonderful and a real lesson. Don't stop the Minders'! I love it!

@michael7482 6 лет назад

Wow, that is really beautiful!!

@annajordan9058 6 лет назад

I was thinking this one wasn't going to be very good, but you turned it into beautiful. Thank you,, love it!

@raed3063 6 лет назад

Love the color choices. The straight tree trunks really bring it out. Adding in the clouds 👍🏽👍🏽. You make it all seem so easy Steve 😊

@jrz7325 6 лет назад

I have to say that was very impressive. A very useful tutorial. Thanks for sharing.

@carlaa.1617 6 лет назад

This was so much fun to watch and the painting is so beautiful. I must give this a try. I am a detailed painter and really want to loosen up but find it so difficult to do. This is the perfect technique for me to practice. Thank you so much :)

@BornAgainFarmGirl 6 лет назад

This reminds me of watching the clouds in the sky take familiar shapes right before your eyes . very fun to watch it take shape , watercolor paints all by itself .

@Charbythedesert 6 лет назад

Awesome painting! Love the color palette and misty look.

@hawkowldolphin 6 лет назад

Your so talented. That was a great demonstration. See that you used your stamps.

@paulapost8004 6 лет назад

This is beautiful! I gave a spontaneous landscape a try today. While it is destined for the bin of no return, I did learn several things and see where some of my practice has paid off a bit. And there was actually one small section I thought was pretty good. Thank you for being such an inspiration and also providing so many good learning tutorials.
