Using "tea" and "honey" consistency paint, building layers of colour, to create a swirling cloud shape across the sky and a dark shadow across the foreground. I'd like to take this opportunity to thank eac...

Very inspiring Chris, will definitely have a go at this, love the light and would never normally use wet, hard edges and drybrush all in the same sky, thanks for all your output in 2024 and have a great 2025
Thanks John. Happy new year to you

Amazing , thank you so much sir for this video 🙏
Thanks so much, glad you liked it
Thanks enjoyed!
Thanks so much, glad you enjoyed it
Thank you so much. Now I understand what value is for the first time after watching so many videos and artists.
You’re welcome! I find a lot of people tend to over complicate it, so tried to explain in the simplest way
Lovely, so soft and restful.
@@melindaavila498 Thanks so much
I am learning so much from you. I've always used paint brushes and my art skills were of a two year old. After watching some of your videos, I can now say I've reached an 8 year old ability and getting older by the minute. Not bad for someone who could never draw or paint.
Fantastic. It all comes down to practice
I'd heard about values, but didn't understand them until now. Thank you.
Great !!
I don’t want to discourage anyone, but the British all have a bit of Gainsborough in their DNA. This explains why they are excellent watercolorists. Good luck to everyone else, especially me. I need lots of it.
Haha! I would prefer Turner’s
The way you paint is almost magical to me! You begin with seemingly random blobs of color … which evolve into a fabulous scene! Like magic!
Thanks so much
Very helpful, going to sit down today and have a go.
Great !! Glad you liked it
Love your work! Where can I get the watercolor palette that you used? Thanks!
@@KennethLoke Thanks so much. It’s a Frank Herring palette
This was a lovely way to start my morning. I really love your technique and easy way of expressing what you are doing. The colors you used and mixed for this painting were so perfect with just the right amounts of color to make this glow! Terrific tutorial 🤗👍👍 I definitely am a subscriber now🩷
@@Bindismom Thanks so much, I’m glad you liked it 😊
It is such a joy to watch you make this landscape come alive.
Thank you so much
Thank you 🙏
You’re welcome! Thank you for watching
This is beautiful.p
Thank you !!
Chris! This is a stunner! Looking forward to giving this a go. Thanks for sharing so much with us. Happiest of New Years to you.
Thanks so much, Sewall. I hope you enjoy painting it !! Happy New Year to you too
Thank you, they are outstanding and I will buy one one day.
You’re welcome! I really like mine, they are great palettes
is your palette porcelain ?
Yes, it’s made by Meeden. There’s a link to their website and a discount code, in the video description.
Thank you Chris!@ChrisStephenArt
This is a valuable lesson. Thanks!
You’re welcome! Glad you liked it
So great, thanks. Now I see misty sceneries need lots of water.
You’re welcome! Glad you liked it
What kind of palette do you use for such a large brush? Thanks again I’m learning a lot from your videos
@@peggykay3115 I used a Holbein palette in this video, they aren’t available anymore unfortunately. I use a Meeden porcelain palette for pretty much everything these days, there’s a link and discount code in the video description if you’re interested.
Any suggestions in cutting the handle?
I only cut the handle so the brush fits in my travel box. If you want to cut yours then you can use a small saw to cut to your desired length
Lovely
Thanks so much
Wonderful
Thanks so much
Brilliant. Thankyou
You’re welcome! Thanks so much for watching

Thanks Dave !!
I really liked the original, but you really layered in some drama. So cool. Thanks so much.
Thanks, Sewall
Great job . However is not very desirable to emerge myself into that wetness lol. Almost I feel wet and cold,and nobady around,,,, solitude and nasty nature.
Thank you. I always see the beauty in mist and rain, etc. It’s full of atmosphere. 😊
