    This is such a wonderful painting! I love that you have used so much color in the animal and I love that you share the colors you used. It's so frustrating to be drawn to the color and not be able to know what color it is. Great teaching style. Thank you for posting. I learned so much!

      Hi Betty. My grandson bought some acrylics so I had a go but I found they dried to quickly for me. I have been painting for nearly 50 years in oils so I guess they must agree with my technique.
      I'm glad you enjoyed the video, thats why I do them. Good luck with your own work. Kind regards David

      Graham that's very kind of you. I'm just about to start an elephant family group but I suspect it will take me about a month. I'm looking forward to it and want to try playing with the light and dark areas in the painting, so watch thias space as they say. Kind regards David

    Hi Nadezhda. Thank you. I'm glad that you liked it. I'm working on another elephant painting but it's put on hold while I finish some landscapes for Japanese galleries. I enjoy doing both subjects so I guess I'm a lucky man. Take care and stay safe.

    Loved the painting David :) I find the details on the trees hard to make as it generally gets messy and looks like blobs of paint. Will learn from your paintings and try again!

    Hi David- I’m trying to duplicate your elephant for a friend of mine. Thank you for the tutorial. I hope it comes out somewhat close to Your’s ( using another reference photo with Your’s too) and hope she will like it though won’t be done for some time. I’m recuperating from a knee replacement and can’t get back to it yet. 😢

    • @DavidCraneArtist
      @DavidCraneArtist  4 ปีที่แล้ว

      Hello Sheila. Again I'm not sure if I replied. I hope your friend liked your elephant. How's the knee. my sister had a knee replacement and it has increased her mobility. Good luck. David

  • @DavidCraneArtist
    @DavidCraneArtist  4 ปีที่แล้ว

    Thanks Sheila. Good luck and if you have any questions you can email through the website. www.davidcrane.co.uk
    Also good luck with the knee replacement. People I know who have had the operation are really pleased they did.
    Stay safe
