Thank you. Speak too fast

I enjoyed this, will you be able to show us how/if you reference this (or similar others), with the big pieces you are working on for your show? Val X

? Do you lighten up the photo in computer because a copy of photo seems darker. Or is this somthing you skip and just go painting. Love these blue compositions, indeed you can have fun with different colors, great idea !

Hey, Great study. I realise with this study the paint is possibly a bit thick for what I’m about to ask, but once it was dry, is this the sort of thing you could experiment with multiple colour glazes over the top? If yes, what medium mix would you use to maintain the thick over lean rule? Thanks, Will

Col travel tips, thank you!

Very helpfull, thank you !

Great video! I've come to appreciate that my biggest adversary is the state of the economy where I am *South Africa*. Even when there's a lot of interest from potential buyers... things can quickly go belly up or priorities change on their end, then I have lower sales than anticipated (if any).

What kind of canvas are you painting on? I love the texture ! Is it like a gesso board? 😮

Wonderful

The USA is really beautiful, I would rather be there than in Germany, Berlin. Your style is great. Maybe you could make a video about why you prefer to paint landscapes and not portraits? LG

Thank you.

Right in my neighborhood! Looking forward to your show❤

Not only do I like your work and advice but these scenes of San Francisco make me miss the city immensely.

Wonderful study! Hello from SLO, CA 👋

🖐❤👍

• Truly outstanding-great job!🐫🐫🐫🐫🐫

You are very generous with your instructions. Thankyou

Thank you for sharing such oil painting tips 🙏

Hi dear. I'm a visual artist who is currently exploring on art and what best works for me do the long term. I upload videos related to painting like you. I would love to get to know you and be friends with you. As an artist it really helps having artist friends where we can connect and learn and grow with the help of each other.

I loved seeing the way you use several different colors in your black. Beautiful painting!

Would it help to have an umbrella over your painting to block out the glare to your eyes? That was some pretty intense sunlight!

Yes I took up painting here in the isolated bush in Queensland Australia five years ago. I took them to my local art shop to be framed. And I was embarrassed to even show my work to her. She invited me to enter the Regional Art Prize and can you believe it that I won the prize two years in a row. And I had no art friends no internet just my vivid imagination. And I can tell you that I think the main thing in art like music is not technique its composition. And I believe like music its a gift and some people just have it whilst others just dont. But sure you have to nuture this gift. And you can learn all the stuff but ultimately you have to be original and unique to make it big in art. The best thing is to do it to please yourself. I think abstract art and mixed media art seems to all follow the same old boring technique. And one looks much the same as the next. I also dont recommend using photographs to paint. This really stifles the imagination. I won the art prize because the judges were tired of art being copied from photographs that all have the same look. Art today because we have photography has to be so much more.

You must be very proud of yourself. I did a different thing in a similar way. Quit a full time low income job to go to university at 36, graduated at 40 and finally started getting higher paying jobs. Went through the same process as you, e.g., wondering can I do this, accepting the risk of leaving a full time job, and having faith in the potential outcome, etc. I just retired at 65 and am loving the freedom to paint without distraction. It just seems to call to you, right?! You also made very wise and responsible choices along the way that allowed you to take the leap.

Excellent. Thanks so much

Great kit!❤

Talent🎉:-)

Woooow! 😮👍👏👏👏

Great video- thank you. It was the kick up the bum I needed. Especially appreciated what you said about quantity. So often I will look at a finished work in a gallery and feel that level of expertise is so out of reach to me but forget that the artist had no doubt spend hundreds of hours honing their skills. Thanks. 😊

I love that you show the practical side of the art business. Because making a living doing art means you’re a small business person, and having to do practical things like ship giant pieces of art.

Was the art show a success for you? What types of paintings of yours sold the most? You are inspiring, One more thing.... what are you painting on? Is that a wood board??

You are very smart, great advice. I wish I was half as good as you are. I think I will take you up on your advice. I have done a few because I liked the art they created, but I did not go into it with his attitude. Love it.

i dont feel comfortable about the whore stuff.

Oil. Many people seem to have already commented on this method, of simply not washing at all. I may add to it, that when I need to clean mine, I first wash the brush in oil to get the pigment out with any kitchen oil. Oil dilutes oil.. 😄 Then wash the oil out with detergent

hi there, which shipping company do you use for large scale pieces like that?

Thank you - I know the general principles but you explained it so well and the procreate part was gold!

“Too tired after work on weekdays, not enough time on weekend” OH THIS IS SO TRUE 😭 i barely draw anything since back to 9-5…

Love it

Love them all and your trip!

Could you make a video about your art process, e.g. how you come up with ideas and the path you take to a finished painting? I'm an artist who draws from life (I mostly do life drawing and draw in my sketchbook) but I'm interested in creating more finished pieces and don't have any idea how to even start!

This was such a great video. Thanks for making color temperature a little easier to understand!

Thank you for this inspiring video. I‘m soon trying to sell my first pieces of art. In the moment it‘s just a hobby, but I know the calming feeling of painting and love it. ❤

Thanks for that. Your thumbnail on the video Portrait Painting Demo has a typo. It has Potrait instead of Portrait.

Is this the Moleskine art sketchbook for sketching or the one for watercolor, everyone seems to be using the one for sketching, but I’m confused because they’re using wet media in it. Can you help me out?

I'm lost at nft????

I love that restaurant painting. It tells a story, not to mention the captivating use of colour

I really needed this today. I have had trouble connecting with artists in my area because the majority are retired and its hard to participate in local shows because I have to coordinate drop offs since they usually want art dropped off in the middle of the work day. I feel sometimes like nobody understands why I am doing this and think I am delusional for imagining I could ever make revenue with my work. Also galleries in my area seem to prefer specific style of art like impressionist /realist and my art is sort of dark so even getting into shows sometimes is challenging. Anyway its all a huge bummer for me but this video makes me feel less alone.

Very beautiful to see ones, in this caee your ideas, thoughts and expressions in life in a thiny (for me) sketchbook, 🦌💟

I wanted to add your site immediately, only to find that i was already subscribed. This time i’ll hit the bell!

Great lesson. Im on it. Thank you!
