Dear Andrew, I thoroughly enjoyed these tutorial sessions. As a complete beginner, it has been so helpful to receive your wisdom on watercolour painting. I have hung my second attempt on the wall as a souvenir of the endeavour. Thank you so much. Gary

Glad you like them. Thanks for getting in touch and for your support and encouragement, it is much appreciated
The best instructor on YT. Thanks so much. I really needed this sky tutorial.
Oh, thanks very kind, thank you. www.andrewpitt.co.uk
I watched these 5 videos and bought your book because your lessons are so instructive and your paintings are an inspiration. I have been painting since early 2021 (flowers, leaves) but recently began painting landscapes, houses, buildings while traveling. I have tended to overwork my paintings because I get nervous and start painting over what I’ve done and the result is flat. You’ve shown me how to paint buildings and skies in one go. This is the lesson I needed and you’re the only one to explain and show it clearly. Thank you so much!
Glad you have found the videos helpful. Thanks for your support. www.andrewpitt.co.uk
Thank you Andrew for a simple straight forward approach to painting this picture, I liked the idea of 10 minute segments I personally found it very much easier to absorbe the information. Happy New year to you and all your other subscribers.
Many thanks for taking the trouble to comment so generously.

Thank you, Andrew. This was very helpful!
Glad it was helpful. Thanks.
Dear Andrew, I am also a beginner. I love your style. I tried a few before, and all sorts of techniques and tricks, but your way seems so true to me. I am certain this suits me the best. I live too far, in Transylvania, so not really a chance to attend one of your workshops, but your videos are great and I start practicing using these. I also your way of alternating very watery washes with bold strokes and very concentrate paint as well. Thank you for these wonderful videos. By the way, I have just bought your book in pdf format. Have a great, creative new year!
Thank you very much for your kind words and support. I hope you enjoy the book and find it helpful. Congratulations on your English!

Another great lesson, looking forward to the trees next, thanks again.
Thanks. Glad you are enjoying the videos. www.andrewpitt.co.uk
Fascinating watching you. Particularly adding the sky later in the process. I've always wetted the sky area first and dropped in a mix of ultramarine and Prussian blue. Then panicking with kitchen roll.
Thanks for getting in touch. Applying paint to a sky and then taking it off with a kitchen roll never made much sense to me. www.andrewpitt.co.uk

Excellent tutorial as always!,sky and lessons are all brilliant
Thanks a lot
I am enjoying your videos. I have not painted landscapes for many years and was never really taught how to handle washes when I was at school so have always been nervous of adding much water and letting the paint flow. Already in the background to my latest painting I can see a difference.
Thanks for getting in touch. Glad the videos have helped. www.andrewpitt.co.uk
It's really hard to not be "tempted by mischief!" :0)
Yes, I know the feeling.
Thank you !

Thank you for all the great tips for shadows. I have a problem keeping the light coming from one spot and putting shadows where they would never be!
Thanks for getting in touch. There are more videos on my website, www.andrewpitt.co.uk which might help with painting shadows.
Excellent,well explained
Glad it was helpful. Thank you. www.andrewpitt.co.uk
This series of 5 videos is great. It gives me a chance to breathe between them! I have a request, if you are looking for ideas. The sky gives me the most problems, in color and brush strokes and placement. Can you please do a video of just skies? I've painted this twice and both times my sky is the part I struggle with most. It's too big, there are too many colors, it feels anchorless because unlike the houses and trees and bushes I can't figure out where to go. Or where to stop...
Thanks for your kind comments. If you scroll through the other videos on my website you’ll find more skies. www.andrewpitt.co.uk
@@AndrewPittArtist thanks!
So beautiful! Really enjoying your video!🖼
Thank you. Glad you enjoyed the video. www.andrewpitt.co.uk
Hi. I am an absolute beginner and your tutorials are helping me a lot. Thanks a lot for these tutorials.
I have only one question. I have noticed that while mixing paint, you dip your brush directly into the fresh paint pots. But doesn't it pollute/ruin the fresh paint pots?
Thanks for getting in touch. Yes, you are quite right, the paint does get contaminated a bit with other colours but I hope you see that it doesn’t really matter. Too much water makes the paint hard to control. Good luck with your painting.
Enjoyed that 👌
Glad you enjoyed. Thanks for getting in touch. www.andrewpitt.co.uk
Dear Andrew, greetings from India! Thank you for sharing your knowledge and experience as water-colourist. I would really appreciate if you could give some tips on painting loose florals.
Thanks for getting in touch. I’ll see what I can do as regards painting flowers in a future video. www.andrewpitt.co.uk
Happy New year Andrew, and thanks for another absorbing lesson. I plan on practising your sky technique many times before I try it `for real`. I really like the way you use those brushes, would you mind describing them, and a supplier if possible? Thanks again.
Happy new year. Thanks for getting in touch. There is a free-to-watch video which covers all my equipment, including my brushes, on my website, www.andrewpitt.co.uk Just scroll through the videos.
I’ve just found your channel and this tutorial series. It helped me so much! Thank you! 0:10

Hello Andrew, great tutorial! Can I ask where you got your mount/frame from please? It seems a great alternative to taping the edges. Also what size & type of poet are you working on?
Thanks for taking the time to make these tutorials!
Thanks for getting in touch. My mount/frame is home made. There is a video on my website, www.andrewpitt.co.uk which covers all my Painting Equipment and Materials, including my drawing board. Just scroll through the videos. The actual painting size is, 15’’ x 22’’.
Enjoyed this
Thank you for your support
Dear Andrew, thank you for your efforts in putting those tutorials together, these are so educational and useful with so much insights, thank you! I absolutely admire your style and work. I am an absolute beginner but I so much like to learn to paint in watercolour. I came to realise that my biggest problem is the lack of understanding of how to use watercolour. Water vs. pigment quantity vs. quantity on the brush, etc. These are really basic topics but I was wondering if you have anything helpful for people like me :)? I must have tried maybe ten times the sky and I can't get even close to anything representing a sky. Either the wash is very light or dark or mixing badly or mixing leading to cauliflower effects.Thank you!
Many thanks for your feedback and suggestions. Your ides are very useful. Perhaps we’ll aim to focus on the problems beginners face in our next video. Thanks again - remember, watercolour can be frustrating for us all. Best wishes. Andrew
@@AndrewPittArtist thank you for your speedy response:), really appreciated! After I posted my question, I started wondering if this is far too basic topic for a channel like yours :). Thank you for considering something so basic but so important for beginners :).
@@alexp4858 Watercolour is all about getting the basics right. And I can assure you even us more experienced painters often have the same difficulties as many beginners.
Thank you 🙏🙏🙏
Good day Mr. Pitt,
I was wondering, do you load your palette with fresh paint before you paint or you keep your palette moist somehow and replenish as needed?
As I paint regularly my paint doesn’t really dry up. I replenish individual colours as they get used up. It is important to always have a good supply of fresh paint.
Did you wet the sky again before applying the color, or is the paint wetter than the paper? Thank you so much for these. I think my brain is learning so much more from the shorter segments, and I can stop and take notes on each one.
No, I never wet the paper before doing the sky. All my skies are painted on dry paper. I start at the top and work down, changing the colour and paint consistency as I work towards the horizon. There are more sky demonstration videos on my website, www.andrewpitt.co.uk
@@AndrewPittArtist thank you.
Where do you get your brushes and what kind are they
Please scroll through the videos on my website, www.andrewpitt.co.uk and you’ll find one which covers all my Painting Equipment and Materials, including my brushes. Thanks for getting in touch.
Intéressant mais 2 de tension le vieux omg
www.andrewpitt.co.uk
Do you really need so much water than Color ? Seems like the brush is too wet ??
Judge the result for yourself.
thanks I have learnt a lot from you.
Glad to help, thanks for getting in touch
