Thank you Richard, I've been inspired by your technique for many years now but have been too scared to commit to painting since I left university. If I could be half as committed as yourself I will be happy. I'm lucky enough to live in Devon.
I enjoy watching you paint. Your voice and your work bring peace to my soul. Thank you. I’ve been trying to use watercolours to paint but mixing pencil (specially soft ones) and water often result messy in my paper. I’ll keep practicing and admiring your art.
Hi. Thankyou for your comment. if you wish to see a video of one of my paintings, please see my Domestika tutorial. www.domestika.org/en/courses/4318-painting-realistic-watercolor-landscapes/thornart2
Thank you very much for this excellent and very well explained video . I think that, as you say, it is a wonderful exercise and and adventure to go and sketch in the nature day after day and I try to do it.
I really enjoyed watching this Richard, it is a unique way of doing pencil and wash , I’m so glad I stumbled on this. I like how it began loose then was finished off beautifully with the detail, very thought provoking, I hope you share more with us on here
Thank you so much Richard, firstly for an excellent tutorial, and most importantly, for sharing your techniques and including the colours you use. So many demos by artists don't include these tips, which are so vitally important to struggling artists such as myself. Found you by accident, through Pinterest, been to your website, and i absolutely love your unique style. Will share on my Facebook page, looking forward to more tuts... please! Also would love an answer to the same question as Emmajo, about achieving the white sparkle on water?
Your paintings are truly magical. I am going to see your exhibition at Seal Hayne tomorrow. Have been a fan for many years. Do you mind me asking how you achieve such a dazzling sparkle on your seascapes? Do you use wax resist/masking fluid/salt/sponge? Always wondered. :)
I love this rare tutorial. Was more detail added to the foreground brush on the lower right side in the cut near 24 minutes? The detail all of a sudden just popped!
Mr. Thorn, you are a wonderful artist,I just love your creativity, the freedom with which you address with watercolor. Please tell me do you have workshops or online,maybe you have in social networks,where you can ask technical questions. I work with watercolor and I'd love to learn from you))
Back again watching a master at work. Do you always use a graphite stick to draw out every painting you produce? Sometime, sometime, please add another tutorial.... even a section of one of your more finished pieces to help us learn more?
Richard love your loose style and your use of that graphite pencil, could you tell me what make it is? Looks very unique. Your style has truly captured my attention to get out more and use heavier pencil lines on my paper instead of weak and light lines in 'fear' of showing through. Thanks for the video, very well done!!
You are my idol in the world of watercolor painting! it’s truly amazing to watch the master at work .. I do not understand English very well by ear. Do you use watercolor pencil? And what colors? such bright pigments!
Thank you so much for your response. I live in B.C. Canada and we have limited stores that supply art supplies.Your tutorial is awesome. I really appreciate you sharing them. @@richardthorn7478
Hello Mr Wopwink...the ceramic dishes were bought in a hardware store in Penzance. I went back there recently to buy some more but they'd sold out and wouldn't be getting anymore. I'm going there again soon and if they've got them back in stock I'll buy you some - they're only £1.00 each. Very handy!!!
MrWopwink These are marketed in the USA as "sauce dishes" or "3 compartment sauce dishes" through restaurant supply companies. Similar styles can be found listed as "condiment" or "oil dipping" dishes.

Hi yeah it's Creatacolour graphite . Thanks for your comments on my work.
You are my idol in the world of watercolor painting! it’s truly amazing to watch the master at work .. I do not understand English very well by ear. Do you use watercolor pencil? And what colors? such bright pigments!
Thank you Vita - I use OLd Holland paints and Schminke - very high key colours.
very nice
Janet Garcia Thankyou Janet
Can you please tell me where you would find a pencil similar to the one you are using?
Hi B - You can buy them through Jacksons' art or Great art (art suppliers online). Or go to Creatacolour. They actually make the pencils.
Thank you so much for your response. I live in B.C. Canada and we have limited stores that supply art supplies.Your tutorial is awesome. I really appreciate you sharing them. @@richardthorn7478
Beautiful! How do you keep the graphite from bleeding into the colour?
Cathy Riach . I l8ke 5he graphite to blend with the watercolour. But Createacolour graphite sticks stay in place ....pretty much!
Hi Richard enjoyed your video can you tell me where you got those what look like ceramic dishes from please?
