the "more drying, more fading" was very helpful, even if it's something I've observed, hearing it said helps it catch in my memory

Thanks Matt! A month ago My paintings looked like a five year old did them, now, with your helpful videos, I’m getting better. Watercolor is hard and challenging, it’s why I like it. Keep up the good work!

I'm so glad to hear that Pete!

The part I enjoyed most about this is the explanation of perspective and how your eye is drawn into a painting. Thanks for sharing!

Matthew, I am so grateful for the instruction you offer. I am a new watercolorist and was working mostly by trial and error. Then I discovered your videos and the detail, the logic, the artistry and the encouragement you offer is exceptional. Thank you

[@learntopaintwatercolor]

So happy to hear that. Thank you!

Hi Matthew Another fabulous tutorial. I feel the “Penny has dropped” with this one and I will start implementing the perspectives from now on THANK YOU 😊

[@christinebravomom5711]

Thank you! So timely for me. Your tips convinced me to trash my in progress painting and start over before I wasted any more time on it.

This is all great information! Thank you so much. Wish I had known this a couple of months ago when I did a moose in a pond that my husband and I saw on a day hike in the Tetons. It turned out surprisingly well (one of my best so far), but it would have been easier and even better if I had known all this back then. It will come to good use in the future though! By the way, I appreciate the way you always do a brief summary of your main points at the end of each lesson-very good teaching technique.

really nice video! I enjoy the way you break down your paintings in a helpful way, it's nice to see artists who don't mind at all sharing their process but even actively seek to share this knowledge. I believe it enhances the way of seeing the artworks and also the craft itself

[@artericson]

I agree, nothing is held back!
