Real nice to peak into an artists mind! Thank you. Robt

Wonderful!

Thank you! Very helpful.

So helpful in understanding thought behind composition!

Sir thank you so much, do you have a tutorial about perspective ? Your drawings are amazing

HI ARTIST . I AM UR FAN AND STUDENT ENJOYING UR MASTERY. I AM ABOVE 80 AND PASS TIME LOOKING AT AND LURNING FROM U MASTER TEACHER .THANKS FOR PROVIDING UR TEACHING.

Whoa man. I totally got a watercolor chub.

Thanks for sharing your knowledge

"On ne voit que ce que l'on dessine" je suis en accord avec cela. Merci pour votre partage que je vais mettre à profit. Dessiner à tous propos, comme un journal de bord, ça me parle énormément, sans compter sur la progression que ça engendre... Merci Thomas ;))

Thank you. Very helpful to see it done and hear why.

I've learned a lot just listening you talking and explaining. It all comes to practice and observation and experiments trying things out, testing the colours and possibilities. Thank you so much for that video and for the marvellous paintings as well. Best wishes from Estonia.

Just sent you an email yesterday, and then lo and behold your channel turned up in my newsfeed! My compliments: first, for your beautiful watercolor paintings, and then for this fascinating video on watercolor history. I had originally emailed you because I greatly admired how realistic your watercolor depictions of aluminum foil are, btw.

It was interesting to glimpse Andy's plein air set up. I was surprised to see the support wobbling so much. This is an issue I currently have and it puts me off painting plein air. Andy is an excellent teacher.

That period of artists are my fav. I haven’t seen watercolor paintings that reflect that period. Enjoyed your video

Oh dear, I now have more questions than answers!

Oh. My. Gosh. His made me cry! His eyes. His hands, like you said! Absolutely like he will speak to us when we are done saying good morning! Oh, give Mr. Sam a hug for us!

Love that puppy comes too

Mine is K Schaller

Excellent abstract ! All my signatures are interesting and “fun”. No two are alike. Like the painting itself, that’s what I enjoy doing. It’s part of my identity. Did you say why it shouldn’t be “cute” ? What is the reason for “non-cuteness” ?

Great to see your sketches and learn more bout your process, thanks!

I'm a brand new baby artist, started painting in Nov 2023, and I hadn't considered consciously that my signature is a compositional element, but of course it is hahaha. I almost never know where it will end up, I just look at the finished piece and see where it wants to go. And if it's particularly abstract I like to pick an "unusual" place to sign, kind of as a way to indicate that there is no right or wrong way to hang it. Also, I signed my name approximately a million different times trying to create the perfect Artsy Artist signature, and am pleased with what I ended up with. I both take myself deadly serious AND absolutely not seriously at all, so I am having a great time cosplaying as an established, respected artist and trying to implement the best practices of same.

Thank you for sharing your technique of breaking a subject line drawing into segments. I'm definitely going to try this.

❤❤❤❤

Enter islam and success

Lovely, each and every one of them!

This makes me want to sketch a 3-point perspective about giant sequoias. Super exciting!!

Excellent! Thank you John for sharing !

Thankyou for this video

Super vid. Thanks

Thank you very much Sir

How is the name of the triangle straw?

Gracias por compartir tu reflexión.❤❤

Reading the title of this video, my first thought was: Ah, Thomas, your paintings don't need a signature! Anybody can tell it's a Schaller at first sight. 😍 But it does make sense what you said about it, thank you. Greetings from Hungary! 🌷🎨

I love the look on Otis's face :o)

I'll do the perspective assignment.

Thank you so much for your informative video and will follow your other videos every chance I get 🎉

I think manual sketching (rather than taking photos or creating images with technology) helps us tp remember what we see better---we notice more of what is there as well.

👍😊

Stunning artist, my favorite inspirational teacher. Thank you so much!!!❤

Thanks for the brilliant teaching....

Beautiful painting and signature!

My first exposure to you, your teaching and your paintings..I am impressed…I’ve been familiar with push-pull going back to early 2000. The painting above my bed is my attempt to create a Hons Hoffman, so I am reminded of him everyday. Not sure that is really helpful in my pursuit of painting. When I saw some of his work at MOMA in 2005, I was disappointed in how dull . his paint was. I like oil because of its luminosity. I appreciated your video and looking up your painting’s on Google. Captured my interest immensely and appreciated your love of the endless possibility provided by the world of “gray/grey” Thanks…

I tend to sign too small and too close to the bottom of my paintings. Thanks for the great advice.

Wow, excellent lesson in value sketches. Well said!

Gracias Maestro!!

The patience in making each peace

I would like to join you

❤❤

Thanks, Andy.
