I have been an artist for as far back as I remember. I am a certified paint instructor as well. I have to tell you, of all the painters I have watched online, you are by far the best teacher of the bunch. You have helped my greatly. I have always painted realism. And since I have been watching you and subscribed to your channel, I have learned more about blending from you than from anyone else I have watched. Thank you for your talent in painting and the spectacular method of teaching you provide.
Hello Michelle, wow omg this will make me cry. My mom was the fisherwomen in the family. Coming from the east coast of Canada’s 🇨🇦 she could spot a stream on the high grasses, no boat, and cast her line and come home with brook trout for breakfast. Ohm ohhhhh some good. Thank you so much . Will definitely be painting this one. Isn’t is amazing what one painting can do to you. You are my brain on paint. Thank you for helping me live again.
This brings back good memories of my dad and I. I have to try and paint this. We use to fish all night and would not leave the lake until about 4 or 5 in morning. Of course, I fell asleep on the floor of the boat.
I finally got around to doing this one, my husband loved it. We have three daughters and three granddaughters so when they asked Who is the little girl. I said she represents all of because there wasn't enough room on the boat. Lol. Thank you so much for your talent.
Thank you for including a female fisherman in your painting. Coming from a family with most women enjoying fishing as a hobby going back 3 generations and more... it is nice to see some representation in your art work. Grandma would be pleased to see this painting and imagine the many times she took her grand daughters fishing to share the joy and bonding fishing can provide.
I cant tell you how much I appreciate you using 16x20 canvas, instead of trading it out for tiny canvases sometimes. Its the perfect size for a demo/lesson;)
Hi beautiful lady Wow all your paintings are so beautiful Love them all Big big thank you for every day beautiful paintings Have a blessed day and blessed weekend God bless 👩🎨♥️♥️🌺🌺
God give a lot of talent to you, that is why you are doing this to people, teaching is not easy and you really enjoy every paint. Thank you Michelle, I am learning a lot from you. Thanks again.
You're my hero!!!! Thank you! My grandson who just turned 14 a few days ago received this painting for his birthday! He LOVED IT!!! He said it was beautiful! I put him and his grandpa in the painting! You instruct and explain everything so well! I thank God you're well now and back at the canvas!!!
I love to paint but have been down for a bit due to having a heart attack. Just now feeling better and I am ready to get back to painting. I am a self taught artist but have been watching your videos. What an in inspiration they have been to me. Working on the panda bear currently and then I want to do this one. Have completed your cardinal paintings. Thank you for the inspiration that you have given me.
Hi Kathleen, sorry to hear about your ailment but I am glad that you are getting back to painting and that you have done a few of my tutorials. I wish you good health and I hope you continue to paint!
Another WOW painting Michelle! And it reminds me of the special days each Spring and Fall that my dad and I would get up very early to go boat fishing for the day. I sure miss those days. Thank you for sharing your talent and bringing me back fond memories :)
Oh my goodness - so many early mornings on the lake with my dad, from childhood through my adult life. Wonderful memories - I can't wait to paint this!
I have been watching a lot of your painting tutorials. I just wanted to say that I appreciate you and I love your teaching style! You are my new favorite artist! Thank you for all of your tutorials!
hi Michelle , ive been painting 8 months and my paintings are never as nice as yours but much better than when I started thanks to your teaching..i have given many away and people say they are very nice but I know what they are supposed to look like..lol...they see the good, I see the mistakes..anyways, ive done the lion, elephant, snowman, books, birds on fence, fawn, hamster , peacock and many more..since u like trees and wild grass how about a couple monkeys in the trees or playing in the grass..there are no tutorials for monkeys that are nice like you paint..i paint every day to improve so im always excited to see what you come up with next..ty Michelle ur top shelf!
I love this video! I tried it and it turned out amazing! My husband loves fishing, and I painted it for his birthday, with him and our granddaughter, his fishing buddy. Thank you so much!
Just finished painting this one. Really enjoyed following your tutorial and the memories I had fishing with my daughter(s) and grandaughter and teaching them how to fish. Great memories of these quiet times on lake.

your videos are terrific and very explanatory. Unfortunately, I don't understand everything because my English is not so great, but I understand it through your visual explanations and markings. Thank you very much for this enrichment, I can still learn a lot.
Love this one! I just started painting during this last stressful year of the pandemic and I find it very relaxing. I discovered your tutorials and I love them! I have tried several and some have turned out better than others. This one turned out great! Thank you! I am looking forward to trying some more!
Thank you so much for this video! You're a very talented artist! By the way, I learned how to paint landscapes by watching Bob Ross when I was a teenager, and I even got to meet him at a book store, because he was promoting a book. That was so awesome and incredible!
I love to watch these videos while painting myself. I paint totally different stuff and I use stones instead of a canvas (for now), but I like to watch and listen, helps to get me in the mood :) And I love your hair! :D And the wine sipping.
Hi Michelle, I forgot to tell you that fishing is my favorite pastime when I am not painting and gardening. Again, I love this painting! You forgot a dragonfly, ha.
You are amazing I love how you only use 3 brushes to paint with I follow you and have watched a lot of your videos I have learned a lot from watching and trying to paint using only three brushes its fun please keep all the wonderful videos coming I love all of it your teaching is great.
Hi Michelle, I'm happy that you're interested in sharing your work! I have two Facebook pages where people post their paintings. One is a public page for my business "Berkshire Paint and Sip" and the other is a private page called "Michelle's Painting Group". In the private group there are additional art lessons, monthly contests, live classes with me and so much more. If you're interested in gaining access to the private group, you can visit my patreon page at the link below. I'd love to see your painting! ~Michelle www.patreon.com/michellethepainter
this painting has lots of the things i need to learn i love your channel.how long have you been painting and sipping that would be awsome to meet bob ross ,i started painting the year bob passed away
Hi Susan, I don't use reference photos because I don't want to get caught up in trying to make the painting look similar to it, rather, I just want to have fun and paint what comes out of me. Have fun painting!
Hi Jennifer, You may be able to add a touch of red or pink into the cadmium orange hue to get it similar to the fluorescent orange. I like using some of the fluorescent colors because they easily give the affect that I'm trying to achieve. Have fun painting! ~Michelle
I love this! Thank you so much! I've been in a painting rut and last night sat down and painted my version of your gorgeous painting! I'm inspired again. Can't wait to try more! ❤️
