    I love these Extreme Beginner ones - they give me the confidence to actually get my supplies out and try, rather than just watch and think I can't do them. Thank you Chris.

    Thank you for your extreme beginners series. I'll be following along from the first lesson, and have already started this. For people like me it would be extremely convenient if you made a playlist with just those episodes. Thanks for this series, and I'm sure starting to do more sketching, like you said.

    Thank you again for an awesome tutorial. My first go at painting this beach scene and i am so happy with it. First time i have painted people that actually look like people. I think i need to spend some more money and buy some decent watercolour paper. I do use watercolor paper but its only cheap and it wrinkles and i get blotches when it gets wet. So glad i found your tutorials. Thanks again.

    Thank you Chris you have given me the courage to add people for the first time. I’ve been painting for several years in acrylics and working in or trying to work in watercolour for just a couple of years. You are right watercolour is hard but so worth the struggle! I didn’t draw until I started using watercolours and it’s taken me two years to finally believe in myself - thanks to watching your videos and hearing your encouraging voice. Now I only use watercolours and to my surprise I can draw and love it. So if anyone out there is struggling - keep at it and listen to Chris’s wise words! Thank you again and keep helping us. Your videos are invaluable to me and I imagine to many others.

    Hi Chris. I am an extreme beginner and I have watched and attempted quite a few watercolour tutorials recently. I came across your tutorials this weekend and I am so excited to begin your extreme beginners series. I was starting to get frustrated and my inspiration and creativity was being dampened. Your extreme beginners tutorials have me inspired again. I’ve never been able to ‘get’ the shadows and light concepts but you have explained it in a way I can understand. Thank you so much. I’m so inspired again. 😊😊 (I’m a dedicated follower now 🫶🏼)

    Another teaching video that ROCKS!!! So many great tidbits. I really enjoy these videos and lectures. It's been brilliant to see how one can expand on a simple design. Thanks to your teaching, I have been able to use your base image, and been confident to add more things to the scene.
    This time I added a tree on the left, mountains on the right in the distance.I even put in a sailboat!!!!
    I have to say, this has been the BEST ART THERAPY. I have so enjoyed find myself actually "NEEDING", to create something every day.
    Either a painting or a drawing, I spend at least one hour creating. Damn the TV!!!!
    The best thing of all thanks to these extreme beginners series, is that I feel really great about creating real images from my minds eye. That has never happened.
    I would like to ask.... maybe, you can do somethings in the realm of Mountains/Trees like in the Adirondacks in NY. I need to learn conifers, perhaps you can do an EXTREME teaching on those. I know you did one once before, though perhaps we can revisit the mountains. As the snow begins to melt, the bring extreme beauty!!!!😉🤫 Thanks CHRIS for all you do, these have been so much FUN!!!!

    Hello Chris. I am not sure if you will see this comment. I've been watching a lot of watter color - beginner videos online in the last couple of months. I was always considering to give it a try as it appears to be something that I could use to make decent paintings and make a new hobby out of it. I was never too good at urban sketching, so I often felt discouraged, but I can draw a couple of squares, so this video convinnced me to invest in the material and try it out. Thank you!

    • @cpetri766
      @cpetri766  ปีที่แล้ว

      Absolutely, I painted the same way when I first started….. what ever was easy to draw and paint I did lots of that,….. then moved onto to something more challenging… and repeated the process 👍😎🍀

    Compleated this painting with you this afternoon the most difficult and scary part for me was painting the sky as mine turned out nothing like yours
    I’m not very good at leaving dry areas for white clouds
    Thank you again for an enjoyable time painting from your excellent Video session ❤

    I'm an extreme beginner. This is my first ever drawing..not as good as yours obviously but tomorrow I will paint. Wish I could upload. I'm finding your tutorials really good. I am going through my second year of chemotherapy treatment and this is therapy for me. I live in Spain.

    Wonderful, simple and crisp. I tend to overwork my paintings... I often end up with too much detail and also mix 'tight' and 'loose' in one painting. Gosh that looks weird... Thanks for showing us how it can be done..

    Thank you very much for the long tutorial, one of the best advice is : take a break between each step (of course the painting tutorial itself is great as well 😅) but personally I want it over before starting, one of my biggest mistake. I would like to know, do you use the smooth side of the paper sheet or the grainy one. Sincerely.

    • @cpetri766
      @cpetri766  9 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

    Question. Loved doing this BUT my green area looks like a big sploge..I also did the palm tree today in where you did the two types of painting..again rather than a sense of space between branches etc just one joined up splodge. Any tips???
