Music inspires most things in me. I was lucky enough to come across some really talented percussive guitarists, and, their music sets me on a creative path. The music takes hold, and that is when my mind stops thinking, and I just paint.
I agree, music is big for me in keeping my mind off the painting. If you don't mind me asking who are the percussive guitarists? I'd like to check them out?
Thanks, Emily! What I've heard so far I really like and can easily see painting to these. I'm totally into Stricagnoli's cover of Madness at the moment. I'll give these both more of a listen while I paint today. Thanks for the recommendation!
@@chrisloudart My apologies for disturbing, but, I have more musical artists you may love. They are classic in the guitar work. Preston Reed is one. He is one of the founding father’s of percussive guitars. Tommy Emmanuel is another. His sound is what a lot of guitarist go into lessons wanting to learn. And, if you want to go further back, Chet Atkins has a Nashville southern sound that is used in almost every well versed guitarists repertoire. I usually go for Marcin’s music to paint to, and Luca’s has a punch that is fun to paint to, but, these other artists may be something you may try as well.
Great philosophy Chris. Ive been an overthinker my whole life pretty much. I notice it now and tell myself to shut up. Painting and music and meditation all help. I agree with your comment on abstract art. I find if i work too realistically I tend to overwork. Love the composition which tells me a feeling of ancient ruins. Thank you,
Thank you, Julia! It's funny how easy it is to overthink and how difficult it is sometimes to just relax, enjoy and let our intuition take over. I can see what you're talking about with a feeling of ancient ruins.❤️
Un très beau résultat. Un mariage de couleurs et de formes très harmonieux. J'aimerai tant être aussi libre que vous dans votre manière de peindre. Je vous remercie pour cette belle démonstration.
Thanks, Kerrie! Embrace the duds while you have them! They won't be around too long. I always look at the lesser paintings as possible backgrounds for future ones.
Very enjoyable to watch. I listen to opera or my oldies. I like that your videos don't have music as I find it so distracting. But I do listen while I create! Really enjoying your content tremendously! Got a sketchbook yesterday and you have inspired me to get it broken in!
Thank you Chris- you are a Great inspiration to me to create these 15 min practice pieces. My love is the Orca whale and I am planning on trying to do this type of art with hints of orca in them. I am so thankful to have found your channel and I’ll be a lifelong subscriber… 🎉Oh, I like to listen to music- instrumentals like George Winston’s seasons - while painting, And/play videos like yours while creating my own work - God Bless you and your family 😊
Thanks, Kelli! I bet you'll have a wonderful time incorporating Orcas into your artwork. I'd love to see what you come up with. I'm sure listening to George Winston makes for peaceful and stress free painting sessions! Thanks for watching and subscribing. All the best! 😊
This really enchanted me Chris. The moment I felt the painting emerge was when you laid down the teal colour followed by the yellow... You are so motivational and the reminder to get through the ugly phase is good as well as just trying out whatever comes to mind. Thank you. 😊😊😊
These colors are gorgeous and your videos continue to inspire me. I like the portrait orientations, although all of them are beautiful. Thanks again for another great video.
Always inspiring! Thank you Chris for your really good advises! I am trying my self with this intuitiv painting. Not so easy. We have too much real images in our brain! And less focus….I let you know wether i succed or not. Keep sharing your paintings! I love it. Thanks
Love this piece, Chris. You make the process look effortless, but I am well aware it isn't always that way. Your comment, "Make hideous art"; that's my take away from this video. I can certainly manage that lol.

Love turning on my American Native drumming and flute meditative tunes. It opens the channels for my paintings to be fully inspired by my intuition.
Hey Joie! That sounds like a wonderful combination for relaxing and intuitive painting.
Music 🎶 all the time. Loving your videos.
Thank you for sharing 😊
Thanks so much, Rose!

Love how the fine tip paint added just another layer and pop!
Thanks, Caryn!
Bonjour Chris 😊😊 c'est magnifique ❤❤❤❤
Hey Martine! Merci beaucoup ❤️
Un très beau résultat. Un mariage de couleurs et de formes très harmonieux. J'aimerai tant être aussi libre que vous dans votre manière de peindre.
Je vous remercie pour cette belle démonstration.
Merci beaucoup, Ouahiba!
Love this painting, Chris. Much thanks for the full demo and dialogue.
Thanks, Ann! So glad you enjoyed it 😊
Spiral side down-and wow! You had a great composition!
Thanks so much, Dawna!
Magnífico. A.D.O.R.O ❤❤❤❤
Thank you!😊
Wow, I really like the way you paint and the colors are so beautifully balanced. Love the resulting painting! It really draws me in.
Thanks, Sara!
Oh Chris you make it look so easy. I’ll keep trying, even though I have more duds than good ones. 😀
Thanks, Kerrie! Embrace the duds while you have them! They won't be around too long. I always look at the lesser paintings as possible backgrounds for future ones.
This piece really turned out wonderfully I didn't expect that
Thanks, Crystal! Sometimes they're surprises to me as well.😊
Thank you Chris. That exactly what i need to do. I do more of watching tutorials than i do painting myself.
Hey Diane! Watching art videos is quite addictive. I get caught up watching a lot of painting videos instead of painting myself now and then.
Gotta say I hope you carry on with abstracts. I like them much better than the fruits, way more fun to watch.
They're way more fun to paint too! I don't see myself going away from abstracts any time soon.
Very enjoyable to watch. I listen to opera or my oldies. I like that your videos don't have music as I find it so distracting. But I do listen while I create! Really enjoying your content tremendously! Got a sketchbook yesterday and you have inspired me to get it broken in!
Thanks, Kathy! Opera and a sketchbook sounds like a great combo!
All that scratching is making me itch.😅 Lovely work
Haha...thank you!
Love the brights colors in this! In one of the vertical orientations there is a great face!
Thanks, Tracy! I hadn't noticed that before. Is the mouth in the lower left corner?
Yep! The horizontal orangey shape. Love it!
Very nice what you did....So simply and GREAT...
Thanks, Grozda!
adding that depth at the end? master decision. ty Chris! great video!
Thank you so much!
I love it!
Thanks, Kathe!
once u added the red, it really started coming together
The funny thing is that red was the color I didn't think would work with the others, but I agree that seemed to be what pulled it together.
Kewl!
Thanks, Karen!

Thanks so much, Emmanuel! It's comments like yours that truly inspire me.
These colors are gorgeous and your videos continue to inspire me. I like the portrait orientations, although all of them are beautiful. Thanks again for another great video.
Thanks, Peggy! The portrait orientations are starting to grow on me. Happy painting!
Always inspiring! Thank you Chris for your really good advises! I am trying my self with this intuitiv painting. Not so easy. We have too much real images in our brain! And less focus….I let you know wether i succed or not.
Keep sharing your paintings! I love it.
Thanks
Thanks, Meriem! You are so right, we have too many images in our brains that want to creep into our art. I look forward to hearing how it goes!
Particularly liked 3rd orientation in final sequence. Two blue circles at bottom...
The first one is still my favorite so far, but we'll see if that holds true after a couple of days.
Love this piece, Chris. You make the process look effortless, but I am well aware it isn't always that way. Your comment, "Make hideous art"; that's my take away from this video. I can certainly manage that lol.
Thanks, Richard! Haha, believe me, I'm pretty good at making "hideous art", I just don't show those in the videos.
