I agree with Robert Boyce here! Ranson would be proud. in fact I did have moments I thought Ron was painting! O gosh I need to pick up the hake once again! very inspirational Lois! good one!
Edo Hannema Watercolour Art Edo you have made my day! The hake is indeed a wonderful brush, but I long for a very large squirrel mop, one day I will be able to afford one 🤔😉🤞💐
I'm 67yrs old. Never picked a paintbrush up in my life, but have just started to try and learn. WOW, you make it seem so simple. Thanks for your videos Lois. they're fabulous. I think i'm going to need a lot more practise. Bill.
I have to say that I've never been a fan of this style of watercolour, but I'm very quickly changing my mind watching your tutorials Lois. I especially like the relections in this - so simple but the effect is wonderful. I also like the river in the foreground which you lightened up. Really lovely work
Another inspiration, another reminder of the importance of a limited palette, bold strong colours because they fade, and a light touch. Sigh! One day I'll learn. Thanks once again Lois. You're SO talented.
When you said you were going use Payne's grey for the water my ears perked up. Didn't know that could work for water. Its beautiful! Also love watching how you worked to bring the river to recede and follow the horizon.
How i love your art videos. I am learning so much being away from doing any for awhile. One of the things you have no loud bumping background music when you are speaking which helps me clearly as i have 2 hearing aids .You speak clearly your teachings and paintings are very beautiful. Thank you so much for sharing. Pauline
I loved his style and your style too. Very loose and impressionistic. Great winterlike painting . I'm already thinking of Winter (that we never get here in Florida)
I have been watercolor painting for just about 2 years - new to the whole painting thing. I saw some of your tutorials and decided to add some hake brushes to my stash. Good thing this was a beginners painting. A whole learning curve on using hake brushes and figuring out how much paint to water etc. I think i figured out how you did the trees with the brown stripe amongst the gray. Fun to try it all out. My version is adequate but I learned a lot. thank you.
What a fantastic painting, thanks for sharing. I love the Ron Ranson style so this is a perfect demonstration for me. I only wish he'd done more coastal scenes.
As a quick follow up to my comment above, I got chance to try this painting yesterday and was really really pleased with the result. My best effort so far, exactly the style I was hoping to capture. Thanks so much!
Very lovely painting, Lois! I've noticed in your paintings some very faint pencil lines. It would be helpful, in future paintings, if you could make your pencils lines darker so that we could use them as a guide while you're painting. Yes, Ron Ranson would be proud!
Oh my! Thank you for this wonderful tutorial. I absolutely love your work, and am inspired to give a hake brush a go. Would you please let me know what brand and size hake brush you used in this beautiful painting?
Hi! I just started to paint watercolors and I love to watch your tutorials! You have a lovely voice that I enjoy listening to! I am from sweden so English is my second language and therfor I sometimes dont understand or "hear" some of the words. It is the name of a brush I cant hear. I think you say something like wriggely brush or something😂🙈. The thin brush. Hope you see this even if its been a year or so since you posted this! Thank you for a great tutorial! My namne is Anna, by the way.
Hi Anna, I think the thin brush is a “rigger” brush. I believe these brushes were so called because they were perfect for painting the rigging ( or ropes, sails and fine lines )on old ship scenes. Hope that helps!
I will join your patreon account beginning October 1st. In the meantime, I want to get my materials ready. I purchased a small size Ron Ranson hake, should I buy a medium as well? I don’t foresee panting anything bigger than 10x16” till I have a clear understanding of how it all works in practice. I also own a 9X12” block which probably I will use to get started. I have smaller brushes but none of them are authentic kolinsky sable brushes, but imitations from an American company, Princeton. I do have some credit cards or hotel keys that I can use to create textures. Wonderful picture you have painted without fiddling at all. Thanks

What size large squirrel brush and why would you recommend it over the hake brush?

😃 Very beautiful and an especially wonderful river - it's completely convincing. I envy your talent. Thanks very much for this video.👏🏻🎉
You did the reflections so easily. Thanks for sharing. I am going to watch it again.
I like that you say damp water! It tells me that it is not tons of water!! Beautiful scene! Thank you!!💕
I think Mr Ranson himself, would have been proud of that tutorial, Miss Davidson, Thank you so much for your time.
robert boyce Thanks so much, your encouragement is greatly appreciated 😊💐
One of my favorites of yours, Lois!
Excellent results using the hake - I will keep on trying this challenging style of painting with the hake.
I really enjoyed the painting so the way you do it!!! Thanks for sharing your work 🍂🌼

the water looks so amazing! thanks!
Nicely Done!! Looks just like Ron Ranson did it!
Lovely painting and your gentle voice is so relaxing 😊🍒
Nothing bad can happen while listening to this voice.
Watching you creating such a wonderful landscape in a piece of paper is hypnotic!!! Love it!
I love this video - I always enjoy watching it
Very sick nice color, that’s the winter.

It's beautiful...your style if teaching is wonderful.
Lovely tribute to the great Ron! ❤

Beautiful. I would love to see a wider angle so that I can also see how you get the paint from the palette with your brushes and also the water.

Colin Woodward you are very welcome, I’m glad you enjoyed it 😊☕️☕️
So simple, yet so beautiful and so impressive. ❤️

Amazing!
Truly beautiful.
Stunning- you’re very talented
I love this so much! How did I miss this! Thank you!
Lovely, you make it look so simple.
Artsos Creations thanks, it take a bit of practice but Ron Ranson’s methods are a lot more simple than some approaches 😊
Love it!
You make it all looks so simple!
Loved discovering these video demonstrations, all beautul work Lois, fantastic
Thanks so much Steven, I'm thrilled that you like my work :-)
I love this one, Lois
Keith Evans Thanks so much 😊💐

Beautiful ❤️
Thanks Margret, I’m glad you enjoyed it 😊💐
Beautiful painting. Great video. it's beautiful. 😊🎨✨✨✨
Thanks so much :-)
This is lovely ...so simple yet impressive....thanks for sharing.
Very nice
An inspirational tutorial, as usual👌👌👌
That was excellent. I thought, at the end, that it looked more like a pond than a river. Either way, it was very good, and very inspiring. Thank you.
A great tutorial, thank you.
Thank you June :-) I'm glad you enjoyed it
Awesome!
This is nice. Better than Ranson. Seriously. I am 83. Can't master the Hake, so gave up and stick to trad brushes. Merry Christmas Lois

Oh my! Thank you for this wonderful tutorial. I absolutely love your work, and am inspired to give a hake brush a go. Would you please let me know what brand and size hake brush you used in this beautiful painting?
Beautiful and instructive. Thank you so much 🙂
Thank you, Lois. Very helpful. 🎨🖌👍
Thanks Lynn, I'm so glad it was helpful :-)
I loved when you said it was "time to get in the river" 😂

Looks like it was done by Mr Ranson himself!

Thanks Mr s, it will be great to see you in Patreon. I think probably see how you get on with the small hake first, they take a bit of getting used to
Great and selective.
