Watercolor Exercise to Paint (and think!) More Expressively 

‘How much detail do I need to tell the story?’ Excellent point. Thank you!

Wow, this is just the kind of exercise I need to get out of my head. Thanks!

Think I learned more from this video than all the videos I’ve watched in the last 2 years. A few things just clicked with me during it. Thank you., loved it.

I love this break down of steps! Especially for a newbie this is extremely helpful. Thank you

I really enjoyed watching you work. I’m pretty uptight, I don’t enjoy being that way, watching this helps make me feel looser. I’m off to try it. TY!

Sandi some of the landscape sketches made my heart jump! They were beautiful. And I couldn't agree more take time for sketching practices they've the doorway to a masterpieces ❤

This is an excellent way of learning to paint as you reduce it to the basics. Thank you so much!

What a fantastic tutorial. I hope I can incorporate this concept in my own projects. Thank you!

You have made complicated process so easy. Thank you very much for this exercise.

Really enjoyed the video, I’m just starting out in watercolour and having trained as a graphic designer and worked as a commercial & advertising photographer where precision I’d required it’s a big step to become less uptight with the image. I’ll definitely check out some of your other videos.

Amazing! It is only a sketch for you, but it is my goal for a finished painting- long way to go

Fresh as can be. You’re the master of ‘loose’ Dan. Superb. TFS.

Great demo and commentary. Thanks Dan!

Great thanks just what i neede this is the right information Great exercise ...

Really enjoyed this, thanks so much

What a great idea. Thank you. I had one difficulty, though. Since you had the photo on your tablet, there is so much glare I could not see it well.

Good suggestions and helpful. I'll give it a try and might use the same concept to get 'loose' on my Plein air oils next time!

Great video, pls more!

Thank you great demo.

Love this painting so much! I’m curious as to how you would want to paint it, if you were to make it into your idea of a full painting.

Gracias . Increíble.❤❤

I am still laughing: “A man in the horizon”, LOL!!! Loved it! A tiny mistake, I mean, the brush almost fell off your hand, and you painted an entire man, hahaha! Great exercise - thanks for sharing!

Awesome, thanks for sharing!

Magnificent!

First time watching! Really couldn't see what was going on till almost the end! Lol , but painting came out great, even though it was an exercise 👍😁

super thanx. got lot of info.👍

I like the idea of this exercise. Thank you. However, since you have the photo on your iPad, there is so much glare on it that it is impossible to see it well.

Your information was just what I was looking for. I can paint very realistically but find it’s not as interesting as loose.

Thank you 🙏

Is this a hand made pallet?

Świetna lekcja .

👍

Too bad the reflection on the glass distored My view of your subject...😢

Interesting exercise and fun, but what you did to your paint brush pains me!

just what I need to get away from tooo much detail. Thank you.

Tooooo much repetitive talking!
