Hi Marion! I'm a beginner at oil painting. After watching about 50 TH-cam videos to get some tips and advice, I stumbled upon your channel. I just wanted to say Thank You. I've learned so much from you. I watched a bunch of your vids, and you explain everything in such detail, and you take your time to precisely show what you're doing. You're a great teacher! You've helped me so much already as I struggle to learn more and more. Thanks again and Bless You!

Maz, I am so happy to see this video. I must have still been on bed rest. Today I am finally checking emails and low and behold here was the notification that this video was up. I think I know what I will be doing this weekend. :) Thank you, and as I have purchased the book I can download the pdf!! Thanks again Marion for all you share and give to the world.
Dear Marion, this was my first flower-oil-project and because of your fantastic tutorial, it was a really surprising succes. Thank you sooooooo much! Greatings from Germany
Angelique Koeck hi there! I'm so pleased you enjoyed this. Feel free to post your version on my fb wall I love to see! Greetings back to Germany from the UK! Thanks for taking the time to comment your support is always appreciated 😁😁😁
Thank you so much for this amazing tutorial. You are not only a great artist but also an awesome instructor. Since I live in the U.S., it's great to be able to paint with you in a live forum. I love the close ups of the strokes. I can't wait to try this one and look forward to many many more. You rocked it Maz.
Thank you Cindy. X
thank for these free patterns and for the beautiful videos of painting. It's a pleasure to see those for my eyes
Will it be possible with acrylic colours and have the same effect ?
Amazing. Thank you very much for sharing your valuable knowledge with us to help us work better on what we enjoy doing.
Great tutorial!! Thanks
Hi, Marion, I've not picked up a paint brush in 20 years and I've never had any formal training. I always painted with acrylic because oil frustrated me. I painted this one last week and it turned out beautiful, I wish I could attach a pic here. Thank you for inspiring me to paint again; you and oil have a new fan!
I am so pleased - you can add images to my facebook page
Lovely, thank you. While I do not paint in oils, I love the calm, progressive way you instruct. You encourage and lead. The flowers glow.
Thanks I appreciate your comments
.i really like ur painting thank u for sharing that ........i have a concern i do have black gesso or black aclyric and i want to paint the back ground ..is it ok if i cover the canves with black oil paint and let it dry completely ..then paint ...what is the replacement for that gesso>>>thanQ
i hope u answer me ...
Black gesso is a primer and is best
please correct me if I am wrong but aren't most of the brushes you are using the Bob Ross brushes? I am asking as I am getting ready to purchase new brushes. Thank you
Marge Heimdal they are a mix but the BR brushes will be perfect.
I hope you enjoy this tutorial - the template can be found on the FREE section on the MazArt Academy:

I just reprimed a canvas I had lying around to paint with you! :D
loved it! please do more!! Your book is very inspirational!
Oh my gosh. That is absolutely GORGEOUS. I have a blue vase just like that one. And I know what I will put in it now. But it would not look as good as this painting. Thanks SO much. :D
Marion, I'm fairly new to oil painting. I am in process of painting the Sunflowers in Blue Vase. I've done well up to putting the first layer of petals. I had to stop painting for 3 days. Now I am having trouble, I can't get the paint to flow or to last a full stroke. Should I go back and cover the flowers with the oil again and wipe off? What should one do if they cannot complete the whole painting in one day? As I have told you before, you are a wonderful teacher and a great artist. I admire your talent so. Thank you so much for what you do. Connie Phennel Dallas, Texas
connie pittman yes let it dry fully then re coat in oil. BUT if the paint is still tacky it'll smudge so make sure it is fully fully dry first. I often leave my work to fully dry then re coat in the oil. (It's called oiling out). Hope this helps sorry for the late reply. 😄

your detailed explanation and instruction is much appreciated. Started painting 6 months ago but have only done landscapes / seascapes. Tried flowers once, failed miserably, but this video just might be what I need to get on the road to painting flowers! Thanks!

Thanks so much for this, I just finished. It was my first time painting with oil paint. Your directions made that transition very enjoyable. I was worried I would be frustrated with the drying time, but instead I loved it!
Lionel E welcome to oils. The drying time stops being a problem when you see how wonderful a medium it is. My fav!
This question might have been asked, but can this be done with acrylics? Using and extender of course
Great demonstration.
I really love to watch you video...step by step ,,,you are my inspiration... You make me love to painting more than I thought,,,thank you and love you
Are you in America anytime. I'm a tattooist and I'm starting to paint in order to bring my craft to another level. Do you give lessons by any chance?
This may be a dumb question, but can I do this same painting using acrylics?
Yes no problem. Check out my USEFUL tip tutorial. Make acrylics behave like oils. That'll help with any blending issues.
Hi Marion - an astoundingly beautiful painting and the depth of tuition is marvellous - thank you. Caz
Sooooooo Beautiful. TY for the tutorial. Breathtaking.
miss Maz I watch your art work. I really enjoy your videos. Thank you. Sukhui Dodge
Thank You, You are a Great teacher, easy to follow, and good explanations.... Barbie Lockett
Just beginning my journey with oils. Your step-by-step tutorials have made all the difference in my confidence to learn and paint! My appreciation and thanks.
A true artist can inspire an teach at the same time. I’ve learn on one lesson more than I imagine. Thanks .
Glad you enjoyed it
thanks maz i love your paintings and the helpful way you teach very good judy
Hi Marion, I had a go at this tutorial today. Laptop beside me with the pause button now overheating I think. Funny how at each finished section I'd think OHHH no - I've made a mess of that! but in the end it looks pretty good. I love your tutuorials - the way you explain the simplest details - so helful. Thank you for doing this - you should have a Donations button. Love Lynn Brice, NZ
Thank you n

SINCERELY.

Hello! What a blessing to be able to watch your work.I've tried the Sunflower in Blue Vase with acrylic and I got sooo close. The petals have to be done in oils. I've never painted with oils but I must venture out now. I will be purchasing your book soon also and I must say your poem brought me to tears. How absolutely beautiful were your words.Thank you for sharing your gift.
M.T. Harris thank you 😊
Thank you for posting another video! I love watching you paint and trying to paint with you.
Such a great picture sunflowers in a vase.Very good texnics shown how to make petals and the vase.thanks a lot for a good lessonYoure very talented.
Thank you ☺️
Hi Marion.
I watched your video on Silhouette the other day. As I am planning to paint a sunflower, I was thrilled to find this clip
You explain your painting methods in clear, concise and thorough terms; producing efficient, yet effective images.
I am a beginner and the way you gently work through the creation, gives me confidence that I can actually achieve this with time and practise.
Thank you, Sara :D
hi Glad to help - good luck with your painting :-)
What perfection! Too beautiful.
I like you are very nice😘😍😍😍
you are very talented, thank you for such a great video
You are an amazing artist and inspiring teacher! Your very succinct instructions and slower pace (for your beginners) really allowed me to have the time to comprehend how your techniques delivered such realistic subjects. I have been able to finally master a rose thanks to your teaching style. Thank you so much for sharing your talent with us. I will continue to follow you closely and glean what I can from your exceptional instruction.
Thank you so much I really appreciate such a positive response.
hi:) I am from Australia...love your paintings..thank you so much for share:) have a lovely day:)
Thank you so much. 😃
you are a very talented art painter maz! i really enjoy your videos to learn from them. thanks.
Thank you for this tutorial. I'm a beginner and have found your tutorials easy to follow. I especially enjoyed doing this painting. I gave it to my mom for her Birthday. She loves it! I would love to attend one of your workshops if I ever come overseas! I'm also happy you're feeling better.
So pleased you enjoyed it.
Amazing !!! I love your channel I am learning more and more with you thanks
Thanks a lot from France, for such details and explanation to paint. You gain a new fan today ! :) take care. Best regards
Thank you 😊
You are an excellent teacher and thank you for not talking one hour before you begin to paint , you get my interest until the end
ANNA BENSEK I know what you mean. You wanna paint right!! I try to get to the point as quickly as possible and my later videos are even better. Constantly learning. 😁
Marion, As always your painting is wonderful. I do have a problem I can't get the PDF to download to that link. Is the another site I might go to. Thank you Millie
I am working on the link as we speak had a few techi issues.
I painted this in acrylics and it was much more difficult but I was pretty pleased with my end product. I showed it to my art teacher and he asked why there is a shadow on the right side of the table. I did not have a good answer for him. Maybe if we could see your reference it would make more sense?
Hi there. There's no reference because I made this up from my imagination. And the shadow is simply to make an interesting painting. 😄😄😄
And as long as you are pleased with the end product that's all that matters isn't it. ☺️
I agree! I loved your version, and mine :-)
post it to my facebook wall - I'd love to see - painting should be about having fun really - least in my opinion. :-D
Done :)

פשוט מדהימה בכישרונה
Well done ,a lovely piece of work TFS Mairead in Ireland
Beautiful and very nicely explained. Just the camera doesnt show very clearly in the dark ares. Thk u
HI,
I am so, so happy you are doing a tutorial, I thought you had stopped. Thanks so much for the explanation on the pressure to apply with the brushes. Really nice these colors, and really nice subject . Love the painting.
My camera man blew me away with those close up shots. He nailed it don't you think?
Wow and yes, I was so happy I could see very well what you were doing. I have to practice my drawing it takes me a lot of time. Next year I will have more time since I will retire........ Cannot wait ! Love your work.
I just found you and enjoyed your videos about cleaning the brushes with baby oil. I've already purchased some regular oil paints and now found out about water based oils that clean up with water. I'm going to keep on using my regular oils until I run out I guess and then decide whether to switch to water based. My question for you if I may and you could be good enough to answer (since I assume that you use regular oils or the Bob Ross oils) first, how do you THIN the oils then if you don't use paint thinner? Are you using linseed oil? And when you dip the brush in baby oil for a quick clean for changing colors, does this thin the oil paint? By the way, when you beat the brush in the waste can with the lid, why were you concerned about toxic fumes? Without spirits, turp or thinner, where would the toxic fumes be coming from? -- hoping that's not a silly question. I'm new to painting and have just discovered Bob Ross although my daughters have known about him for years. Thanks for answering my questions if you can.
J CH hi there. Don't use the baby oil on your painting at all it's for cleaning only. Yes I use linseed oil to thin if I need to not thinner. Even tho I'm not using thinner the paints are still toxic (all paints are to some degree). So I try to stay as safe as possible. Hope that helps.
J'adore votre art et j'apprends beaucoup avec vous je progresse à grande vitesse merci
Ha finally my rusty brain worked and I found you again after 4 long years!well the last time I was glued to your videos was in 2014!I went step by step along with you and painted the sunset.it was not perfect but my whole family went ooos and ahas and it's hanging in my living room.a lot of water has flown under the bridge since then.I moved to different techniques styles of paintings,and in the past year doing acrylic pours. Love it but the traditional is always in my heart! So this winter I plan to do these sunflowers however I don't do oils only acrylics and use some oil pastels to liven the painting it can pass off as an oil.I must let u on my secret I could not find a blending brush for the sunset so I flicked my husbands shaving brush! It worked then I went and bought those makeup brushes they worked too
I love your easy style and planning to follow your techniques
I want to say THANK YOU VERY MUCH
Thank You Marion..i love the way you paint and teach...So glad you are better .i went through being sick in 08 much better now but it changed my hole life...i do alot of things different now ...i love painting ..it gives me peace....u are always in my prayers...Take care and keep painting

Amazing painting style!! I really love it .I'm a beginner ,could u plz plz make tutorials on basic oil painting of an apple with blending.it would be really appreciated.
Hi Marion ... great tutorial and video, enjoyed watching it and makes me want to start painting again. Just one question, can you please tell me the size of the 3 brushes please. Many thanks Marion.
very nice love it
im a 3rd grader at Marion Eagle Elementary ^_^
Very beautiful
Thanks so much mam I recently started painting.. I was looking for a teacher and I found one.. The best one.. Mam kindly tell me which oil medium are you using..
You have been a great teacher. I love all of your work and videos. I sadly do not have any black gesso. Any advice on doing this on a white canvas?
You can follow along ok on white but the impact won’t quite be the same that blue vase looks dramatic on black. It will be very interesting to see it on a white canvas so if you have a go come and share in the MazArt tribe (need to agree to rules first). bit.ly/MazArtTribe
No closing captioning so I couldn't understand your words or teachings 😩👵🏼
Patricia Christian sorry was it my accent?
hi.l'm from Brasil and l watching you.l loved it.
I'm so pleased. Thank you.
Please help me find the vase template for the sunflower painting!cannot find it on your website! Thank you!
Go to my academy. Header bar choose browse video library. Scroll to the very bottom section called FREE FOR EVERYONE. You’ll find it there. Enjoy 😊
good job -sweet
Thank you for this wonderful tutorial.
The mat that you have your paints on, can I find that one somewhere or is custom made?
Ha! Just found the tutorial - great, love it!! Hope I can make one!
You can make one too! See my tutorial on how to get the inner sheet for free. Make your own pallet. 😀
+Tracy Teixeira lol just read this. 😉
what kind of oil are you working with??
Wow. Very detailed in your explanation which really helps to follow and learn from you. It is beautiful. Thank you so much.
Hi Marion, just tried painting from this video today. I have never painted flowers or vases before and the techniques I have picked up today really helped me to complete the painting. My flowers were rubbish but I did have problems painting them. I use W&N alkyd oils and had trouble picking up the underpainting of the flowers. Do I need to change to standard oils to make the technique work? I normally paint landscapes. Oh by the way I was really pleased with the way the vase came out. Thank you for the opportunity to see the video. Richard
It is possible that your alkyds dried too fast before you could work wet into wet but I hate to suggest you change if that’s what you are used to using. You could try working quite quickly once you laid down the initial under colour or add a touch extra medium to make it a little more wet? I’d certainly try persevere with what you have rather than buy more.
Thank you for the quick reply Marion. I have some W&N Winton colours which I tried this morning and it certainly improved my petals. I will persevere though with the Alkyds and try painting each flower one at a time rather than doing all of the flower underpainting first.
Many thanks for your advice, I am now looking at your other videos and am considering signing up. Richard
Thanks for this wonderful tutorial👍
Thankyou have learnt a lot of about technique even though I use acrylics they can still be applied. It's also great to hear an English accent most seem to be American or in a totally foreign language so the real explanation goes. You explain everything sooo well.
Love your work!! I just discovered you, but I am an acrylic painter so I'm a little hesitant to try these. If I use the extender medium to slow my drying time, as suggested in another of your videos, can I get similar results with my acrylics? Also, how much is 12.99 in US dollars? Thank you so much!!
Marianne Keller hi YES that'll with a treat. And about 16 dollars I think. But google will know better. 😃
Thank you!
Thank you very much for this video
Unusual palette you are using is it your own design or can it be bought ?
