    You keep cranking out one great painting after another, BRAVO. I've learned a lot from you over the past couple of years and want to say "Thank you" for sharing your knowledge and wisdom on painting and art. I loved your book too. Hope your health gets better and you can continue to paint and write for years to come. I would love to be able to own one of your paintings and maybe one day I will be able to purchase one. Cheers!!!

    Hi Stuart,i have been following you about a week.AND I must say that your paintings are very unusual that’s what caught my eye 👁. I love ❤️ it,you are so loose and free when you’re painting.That’s what makes your painting so unique,just put some paint on the canvas with nothing in mind,and make it work.It’s like no other artist that I’ve seen on RUclips.You have a gift inwhich you don’t mind sharing.And you narrating takes me right into your painting.THANK you for sharing your talents,and at the same time a small piece of your self.🤩

    Aside from pure talent, I've always thought one of the greatest gifts an artist can have is confidence. Blind as some of it may be, confidence allows a person to reach further than they might have gone without it. For Mr. Davies to take a painting that was excellent in its own right ("it's ok but I thought I fiddle around with it") and ultimately transform it into something 'even better' - is a lesson on vision, belief in one's self, and pure confidence. A wonderful mindset to have in the world of art.

    This video is just so awesome! I really like the sky as much as the landscape, so absolutely everything (as always). When I study this painting, I find so many shapes in it because it is very detailed. The more I look, the more I keep finding new shapes. This is a perfect panoramic view that is the highest level of the master class! Thanks so much for sharing this!

  • @randysmith1723
    @randysmith1723 Год назад +1

    While I appreciate the fact that you give paintings away occasionally, or sell them for a price that some may find out of their budget, I honestly think what you offer yourself is far more valuable. And I mean that. I have watched a variety of very talented artists online, and I’ve gotten better myself as an artist for it. But your teaching has enriched my experience in painting, and taking the approach of “finding” my subject far more satisfying than coming up with a preconceived target that I must hit, so to speak. I’m enjoying the process much more, rather than merely being satisfied (or not satisfied) by the end product. I thank you for that!

    • @asherrogers2687
      @asherrogers2687 Год назад +1

      His style fascinates me. Most artists draw a mountain, lake, rolling hills, etc. with paint. Stuart smudges/smears the paint around and somehow, and quite quickly, an entire scenery has come to life, and very quickly and realistically too tt! Impressive! Take care! Happy painting!

But I have to say, while it does that, I've also been truly enjoying the paintings and I think it might be inspiring me to paint!

    Your paintings are stunning! So stunning they almost make me cry. Amazing! You make painting look magical. Every time you've done an entire painting I think "oh he's done" and then you add a whole other layer of complexity and color on top of that layer that you've just finished. And it's even better than I could have possibly imagined. One day I want to buy this painting from you, one day when I can afford it, one day when I have my own house and have a wall to put it on I'm going to contact you.

    I'm always glad to hear it when other artists talk about changing their "finished" paintings. Monet certainly did -- even modifying paintings that had been done and dried years previously. Aside from Stuart, I've yet to meet a painting instructor who does not insist that students MUST move on after every "finished" painting, chalking up any mistakes you've made to experience. My experience tells me that using what I learn since moving on to improve a "failed" painting not only reinforces the lessons learned, but can even make a "failed"/problematic painting sellable. For those who need to sell their work, that's what I call a win-win situation.
    (And bless you, Stuart, for also saying that selling is not the point for you, that you can't be bothered. Amen. I can't "get motivated to sell" my paintings either (as encouraged by any and all (other) instructors). Why? Because not every artist paints for that reason! Once again you inspire ... XO

  • @rayc839

    Hi Stuart , Watching your video and I had to smile at your comment "using a big old brush and just throwing paint on"..😂 I liken your painting to be the art worlds answer to Les Dawson's piano playing....he was obviously an accomplished piano player , if he hadn't have been, he wouldn't know which notes were the wrong ones!! I do believe that you have a certain amount of laissez faire in your painting ......BUT.....without your training/experience your arm/brush would not be able to allow your creative sub-conscious to take over. But it is great to watch these things unfold! I still continue the struggle to approach your mastery, although having fun trying I am fairly convinced that I will follow v. Gogh and never sell a painting during my lifetime.....but I intend to be buried with both ears intact!! Anyway , you bring a lot of enjoyment to a lot of people.....thank you!!

    Hello Stuart; Fabulous paintings and technique, learned so much from you. I wonder if you have tried 'water mixable oil paint' yet. As you know there have been great strides in the development of all paints, including household gloss paints which are now all 'water based' I tried some from Artisan and now I use them all the time. Now I save lots of money by being able to wash out the brushes in water, because like you I did not like thinners for washing my brushes when I used oil paint. Once again, many thanks for all the tips and techniques.

I do hope one day you might just try, and remember you are never to old to do this, I am 77 years old and made the switch just two years ago. God bless you dear sir.

    Hi Stuart, I only discovered your videos about a month ago but have watched quite a few of them since then and have been trying to apply some of your lessons in my own paintings. I have a question for you. When I do a dry brush lightly over clouds to get that blurry effect, I think I get too much in the way of brush marks and too much moving around of the paint even though I'm really trying to barely touch the canvas as you say. I've tried a few different brushes, maybe it's the paint consistency. Any thoughts? I know you are very busy and probably get a lot of questions, so if you don't get to this I won't be offended. I'll keep watching! Love the videos!!
