Thank you, grannysmithartist! There will also be one more Sargent program coming from our Landscapes through Time series. His Venetian watercolors are so incredible. Kind regards, David and Connie
Dear PleinAirAdventureswithTezDower - Thank you for watching our program and then writing to us. We really do love creating these programs and love hearing from you! We can see that you also love going to different locations to paint. It was very magical to be walking where John Singer Sargent walked and painted! If you would like a live online workshop with David, you can also join our live online Tuesdays workshops for additional live workshops and optional personal critiques (www.daviddunlop.com). We would love to see you there. Kind regards, David and Connie.
Awesome! I’ve done lots of studies of Sargent’s watercolours and some several times and your interpretation and insight is truly wonderful! Bravo and thank you. ❤
Wow, I just love this, and all your videos. The combination of insightful art history, color theory, and philosophy overlaid on your painting demonstrations is masterful. I've only recently discovered you and your videos, but already you have inspired me and enriched my understanding of art more than pretty much anyone I've encountered. Thank you most sincerely for creating these videos.
Dear John-Wells - Thank you so much for your very kind comments. We recently decided to put more episodes of our PBS series Landscapes ThroughTime and our other programs, on our RUclips, and your comment is extremely meaningful to us. We also had a fabulous time creating these programs and are so happy to share them! Kind regards, David and Connie
Bonjour David et Connie, un vrai régal de vous regarder peindre et expliquer l'histoire de tous ces peintres. J'ai hâte devoir la prochaine vidéo. Merci
Merci, francinedaime1784, pour votre adorable commentaire et d'avoir pris le temps de nous écrire ! Nous sommes très heureux d'avoir de vos nouvelles et de savoir que vous avez apprécié les programmes ! Ce fut un tel honneur et plaisir de créer ces programmes. Cordialement, David et Connie
I just love these videos. Helps get me out of the chair and back at the easel. I especially appreciate David reminding viewers why he uses gloves, regardless of the medium.
Thank you, Bartcharlow9807, for such a lovely comment. We would love to produce Season 3 and many more programs, but it is almost impossible to raise the production budget for art programming. An interesting world! Kind regards, David and Connie
Thank you Casey - we appreciate your noticing and writing to us. We have so many programs and want to share them if they can be helpful. Kind regards, David and Connie

Dear Caifrank7425 - Thank you for watching our program and for writing to us. We appreciate your thoughts. It was magical to walk where Sargent walked and painted. Good luck with your painting! Kind regards, David and Connie
Watercolours are heavily dependent on paper quality. JS Sargent used French-made paper for his charcoal drawings, but used British-made paper for his watercolours. Unfortunately for us today, we use French-made watercolour paper and its derivatives, which were designed more for 20th century abstract art. It makes many Sargent's techniques and results difficult to repeat.
Couldn't agree more. Also I've been diving into materials the greats used. I've discovered the brushes and the paints are vastly different. There's more than skill when you look at a van dyke or a sargent. I truly believe the materials are far superior. I'd imagine it being similar to the feeling of a sturdy American car from the 60s vs hopping into a Toyota corolla. We may be able to have the most advanced materials.. But if they are built on a foundation of cheap ways to make a buck over quality, it really doesn't matter. Sometimes capitalism gets the best of us. Lol
@@alex24mamba You're correct. Not only the papers we use were redesigned for a different purpose, but the paints we use are sourced from the manufacturing process for the automotive industry and exterior paint and coatings industry. Paints are then constantly reformulated without our consent or knowledge. Pigment sizes in coatings industries are 3-10x smaller than smallest art pigments of 100 years ago, which makes watercolour in particular more difficult and over-saturated. Reformulated paper and paint destroy our fine-art brushes quickly. Paper is too abrasive, destroys the brush tips; pigment is too fine, clots the hair to suboptimal performance. If we care about fine art at all, we need to manufacture fine art materials from scratch and specifically for art purposes, as we once used to.
sargent, my favorite artist, thank you so much for this video! I'm always amazed at how Mr. Dunlap understands each artist, thank you
Thank you, grannysmithartist! There will also be one more Sargent program coming from our Landscapes through Time series. His Venetian watercolors are so incredible. Kind regards, David and Connie

Lesson here is don't drop Taylor Lautner for John Mayer. The tragedy
Why cover up EVERY SHOT with words and letters instead of showing the paintings unmolested? What a waste.
Are you serious? This is a painting tutorial, not an art gallery.
