I just love your videos and your running commentary which is so much calmer and nicer than my own very chastising running commentary! Brilliant stuff, thank you for this.
Wonderful painting. I have been painting with watercolours for 3 years now. I have to keep reminding myself not to overwork it. I find your instructions very helpful. Love that you utilize minimum supplies for maximum effect. Thank you.
This is wonderful but also a problem for me. He makes it look so easy that you think, "I can do that" . Then you realise his immense talent when you see just how difficult it really is
Great techniques, the brushes look like magic in your hand. Love the way you mix the colours use only 3 primary colours and apply them use your magic wands. Very enjoyable. Hope I can try this style of portrait paintings. I watched your video every week. Thanks.
Just beautiful! I bought some water color and paper, but am too unsure with myself to go for it! I love your way of teaching and I will try to practice till I get it! Thank you so, so much for being so generous with your teaching skills! I love all your work.
It is impressive demo. I am struggling to print in a relaxing mood and be decisive. It is amazing to see how you achieve deep darkness without overdoing it.
This is beautiful!!! I love when you said “trust yourself”. We are definitely our own worst critics. But you are such a confident painter and it inspires me. I hope to be that confident someday! Thanks for the video!
What a wonderful painting! Where do you find such beautiful fotos? And can I also download this foto? I love to paint african people/ women in this way ... with the beautiful, colorful dresses. Thank you for your good instructions !!
Does it make a difference to start with the main object first or the background first ? What are the considerations. I usually start with the main figure first before I complement it with the background.
Hi, I am a student of Professor Chen's and just the other day, we had a painting session where a student asked the same question. His response was that there was no right way; it depended on you feeling. His personal preference is most of the time to paint the background after he knows where the main object will be located. This is because of his method of painting the large shapes first.
Would be very helpful to post the reference photo in details or even show a large version of it in video. A lot of us like paint along sometimes it's difficult when the reference is so small
Hi, I am a student of Professor Chen's. All the references he uses are available as well as hundreds of his videos when you join EnjoyingArt.com. I hope to see you there soon.
I am learning and practicing your paint technique. I have been struggling with wanting to put many details in my paintings and your videos are teaching me how to paint without all the tiny details. Thank you. can you tell me where I can buy a 3 paint well dish like you use. I have searched for this and can not find one. Thank you again for showing us your technique. I have purchased your brushes and love them.
Brian, you can find an Asian supermarket in your area and you will find it in the dishes area. Have fun. If you really can't get one in your location, I will try to find some in Boston.
I love this piece,thank you! I ordered your paint brushes, but did not get any time frame when I might receive them? Any idea? Will be thrilled to try this
Elizabeth, your brushes will be shipped on Monday (tomorrow) and it may take a few days to get to you since you are in the west coast and we are in the east coast. Once the package in the hand of post officers, we will send you an email with a tracking number. Thanks for your support.
I bought the brushes on line. The calligraphy brush didn’t look like the one Mr Chen uses even when new. The hair fell out so much I had hair everywhere. I guess I was too hard on it or something but not happy with my purchase. Love the vids however and thank you.
Beautiful painting, beautiful technique, learn a lot from you, thank you Sir 🙏
You are not only a master of the art, but you are also an angel too and very kind
I just love your videos and your running commentary which is so much calmer and nicer than my own very chastising running commentary! Brilliant stuff, thank you for this.
Great your unique... such amazing painting with realistic...
That was a great watch. Thanks

Mr.Chen you make it it all so easy, I am a great fan of yours.
Thank you very much

Outstanding art
Very nice my friend! Super cool to use primarily colors only. The more I paint the less colors I use.
Thank you! Cheers!
Wonderful video and painting!! Love your teaching and style!
so beautiful!

Thank you so much 😀Vivian. How do you like the brushes?
I am still waiting my brushes to arrive, can’t wait to try them. Lots to learn. Thank you!
I love watching you Mr. Chen. You make it all seem so very simple/easy. I do not like painting people, so far. Wonder why?!
Very beautifully done sir.
Thank you kindly

Love thus dtyle
Beautiful painting. Beautifully described.Two question to ask. Which paper, hp / cp paper you prefer and do you streach the paper?
Most time I used CP paper. and most time I use tape to all edges without wetting the paper when I paint small.
Does it make a difference to start with the main object first or the background first ? What are the considerations. I usually start with the main figure first before I complement it with the background.

V beautiful
Which paper you prefer? Hot press or cold press. It’s looks so easy but really really difficult for me.
I use mostly cold pressed. Sometimes I use hot pressed for some delicate small painting.

P.S. Will you be coming out to N.W. in the future? We'd love to hop into your workshop!
Fan tastic👍👍👍
Super jee
Nice 😍😍
Sir I am your big fan
Thank you.
I went to your store to see what the bristles of these paint brushes are made of but there is no information. Can you tell me?
I bought the brushes on line. The calligraphy brush didn’t look like the one Mr Chen uses even when new. The hair fell out so much I had hair everywhere. I guess I was too hard on it or something but not happy with my purchase. Love the vids however and thank you.
What kind of paper do you use?
Arches cold pressed 140lb.
Ele é muito 👍.
👏👏👏👏💚

Sorry,but there is nothing simple about watercolor.
