    Oh my goodness! When you laid down the first wash, I couldn't imagine what would appear as you progressed. This is fantastic! It makes me think of forests, canyons, and water. I realize that it's best to relax, take your time and let it flow!

    Hello Steve,
    My name is Christine
    I just wanted to introduce myself to you
    and more than likely write you a short novel.😅
    I want to thank you so much for sharing your
    spontaneous watercolor landscaping artwork with us.
    I absolutely love watching your videos!
    I love working with wet on wet or dry paper with wet, wet paint (carefully)😅 I do use Strathmore watercolor paper
    I would like to start using 100% cotton paper also, I would like to start using the Princeton brushes or whatever good brushes I can afford.
    I’m 62, I think I can re-up my game with finer paper and brushes.
    I know I’ll become more free and more creative.
    A lil info about me🙃😉At one time in my life,
    at a a very young age, I worked as a baker.
    I would work overnights at my Dad’s bakery.
    (A small fun fact.)
    My father would pick up my brothers and I at 11p.m. after an awesome concert and then go straight to work at the bakery.😎
    I also was a graphic designer a screen printer and a phlebotomist. Point being, production is my middle name.😉
    So, all of my work had to be fined detailed. I certainly didn’t mind that.
    Then I discovered abstract 😮 colors too???
    The joke that goes around is “What is an abstract?”😂 whatever you want it to be. Just thinking out of the box, being creative and most of all happy. So, I was used to angles and rulers.
    I also said often “ I feel like I’m cheating .” But soon discovered
    that my abstract painting was literally detailed 😅 I can be a stickler when it comes to artwork. As some artists are. It took yrs. before
    I allowed myself some freedom. Watercolor isn’t easy. But I do love painting the feathers on a bird, or paint a rock or brick.
    I absolutely love trees.I can draw or paint trees in detail or abstracty.
    Seascapes, birds and so much more - not so much.
    I’d like to have more freedom. I know that my creativity is within.
    And so lots of practice is about to happen
    with me with the help of you and others.😊
    I do use acrylics on lrg canvases with lots of water. Hahaha
    I never squeezed the bottom of the bristle of the brush so the paint can drop paint blobs 😉What a fun idea!
    I just got back into painting.
    I am truly looking forward in working with you☀️🎉
    I told you this was going to be a short novel😅
    God Bless and Thank you Steve
    My son’s name is Steve-okay! Enough already!😅

    I have watched all of you spontaneous videos and STILL, every time , I learn something new!! You have helped me advance in watercolor SO MUCH over the last 4 years Steve, thank you from the bottom of my heart! Through painting I've been able to get over some very difficult times and you’ve been there at every point, like a guiding light, encouraging and helping me overcome! You’re an amazing person, an inspirational and talented artist, and i hope you know you’re not just helping people paint, you’re doing much more! Thanks and never stop!

      It's been extreemly therapeutic and helpful for me too, to do watercolour paintings ! I even sold some, for good prices. 🙏🌟🎶 During extreemly hard times, especially emotionally, it kept me on track, made me grounded and relaxed. Much more than oil or acrylic paintings. It's a world appart. And I love it. I discovered it only because I didn't have the means nor the space to do other type of paintings and art. This was a good option. What a revelation. 🎉🙂
      I must take it up again! 🙏 🎨
      I just found this channel, only recently. Very good teacher.

    I really loved the outcome. It's amazing how a few marks can show a whole new light to an area. I was thinking where would I mark - I had the waterfall and a mountain behind those fir trees. Can't wait to play and see if I can get something on my paper

    Hullo Steve I do enjoy watching you do this creation of this spontaneous paintings. Now I have tried this a time or six, buy I just never get as good of results as you get time after time! Now I suppose that you would not post results that are a total flop, would you? Now I do not have MaimeriBlu paints, but I have QoR to DaVinci paints and even a few oddball brands in between! So I do not believe it is my paint choices. Yes my paper is 100% cotton and I even purchased a few sheets of Strathmore just in case that was my problem. I just need to relax and accept what comes. I hope I will get a few better results as I go forward and I have tried this technique several times over the last 10 years, so it is not something I have tried once and given up on, :::::sigh:::: Thanks Steve I will try to relax and just watch you work and try another attempt maybe later this month! Thanks. Please keep them coming, well I guess we got 2 more in this series coming, right? Right! See ya down the line.

      @adelheidbekaert5972 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Well, I don't want to pretend I have all the knowledge, but I'm pretty sure it is important that you can paint a picture like this on purpose. I mean, you have to know how you paint a landscape, or a face or whatever your spontaneous painting will lead you to. Of course when you are used to watercolor and used to painting all kinds of things it is much easier to get to a great spontaneous painting too. Nevertheless in the end of the video he mentions that not all spontaneous paintings work out. Sometimes you must just see it as a practice piece instead of a masterpiece. Keep trying, I would say. I'll have a go at it too!

  • @chipsutcliffe7110
    @chipsutcliffe7110 10 หลายเดือนก่อน

    Seems like the first method (wet-on-wet) can end up being lighter because it uses more water and would be good as a first layer. The second method can be more intense because it can use less water and could also work as a second layer.
