Rick, what can I say. You are a real master and can make watercolor painting look manageable for many of us who are watercolor challenged. While I have been viewing many of your videos, many of my questions or concerns are answered.
I normally do line and wash but have been wanting to try this style. I learnt so much from your tutorial. Thanks so much. I will recommend to other beginners.
I just recently discovered you on youtube and I like the way you approach your paintings. A lot of watercolorist start with a full wash over the paper but I noticed you start with washes in specific areas and build upon that. I will give this a try on my own water color paintings. It seems you have more control over the watercolor itself. Great paintings! Love your work!
Thanks Kenneth ! I do normally do build with targeted washes and don't often cover the entire page with a wash. I don't like to lose my pure white paper all at once. I feel it allows me to be loose, but in control.
Absolutely love the the choices of colors! I had some time off and finally got to enjoy another of your videos. Can't thank you enough for sharing your knowledge and skill! You inspire me to attempt more negative painting like no one ever has. Thank you for sharing your creativity and vast knowledge of water colour.💖🖌️🎨
Thank you, Rick, for this lesson. You've helped me so much with a painting I've been working with for about 6 months..... yes, I said 6 months. Wasn't too sure how to handle the big barn I took a photo of. I'm going to try your approach.
I love your tutorials, both narrated and not as both serve a purpose. You have given the upcoming watercolor artists technique, vision and hope. Thank you and Happy New Years!! Keep these videos coming...your followers will be with you all the way!!
Hi Rick! I am an aspiring artist and I did this one today with my own palette of colors. I wish I could send you a pic! Thank you so much for all your enriching videos.
This painting is so lovely. Your subtle marks describe the planks and the naturally "weathered" look of the barn. I love the suggestion of the four-pane windows and the tree trunks as well. Thanks for the tutorial.
Waiting for the day that I just don't make a total mess with all of that water. I guess when that happens I can take off my L plates.. This negative painting caper really intrigues me. I really enjoyed that lesson.Thanks Rick. Dave M 🇦🇺😎
My thanks for a great video. I hope to try some of your techniques which you explained in a down to earth way. Thanks for taking the time to explain so well. Your work is lovely!
Excellent video demonstration. Yes, you are a true professional. I am also an Internatlonal WC. We have somdewhat different techniques. I would prefer DARKER ontop, LIGHTER below, indicating the REFLECTION of horizon ground up on vertical planes. Otherwise, MAGNIFICENT ! Amen.
Have you decided about colour scheme before sketch or during painting .I think that you are a good judge and alert to get decision about values of colours. Beautiful painting . I will try this.
Rick I have reviewed your video’s and I haven’t seen anything on painting. I attended a class today and she did a variety. I didn’t grasp the lesson and figured I’d come home and watch one of your videos and couldn’t find one. Do have have any suggestions on someone who I could watch. Thanks.
Hi Tamra, I'm not sure I understand your comment "I have reviewed your video’s and I haven’t seen anything on painting" . All my videos are about painting with watercolor. What exactly are you looking for in a video, something other than watercolor?
