    There is something so much more wonderful about your channel than other art channels. I never feel like you are telling me how I should draw or the type of forms and shapes that I should use like so many others. You are just showing how you draw and talking about the wonderful and technical things that swim through your head when you paint and make art.
    Your channel is such a wonderful breath of air on this platform and I love all of your work!

    moving forward, I intend to pick up color and painting as parts of my own practice; to have Sir James as my first "mentor/teacher", it is an honor.
    Thank you for ever gracing RUclips, Sir James. Stay safe and healthy.

    @artbykcappadona5166 3 года назад

    You have such a wonderful understanding of your medium. Beautiful painting. Comment on common areas that people can walk in America: yes we can’t walk many places in America without trespassing. Many areas are owned by private individuals with giant homes or hotels blocking the view, here in Florida. You can’t park or walk to most of the beach. You have to go to the limited public area and drive around in circles for hours to find a parking space and pay through the nose for it. But the other thought is often when we do make access to these beautiful areas people crap them up. Even on the beach people leave debris and bags and food wrappers all over the place. So I don’t know how you keep those beautiful areas beautiful once people do encroach. But there has to be some way. Because people are not full of life without being able to go into nature.

    Loving your videos, James. There's some mesmerizing quality to them, you masterfully control viewer's attention and watching him/her not to get bored of repetitive actions. Mixing it with footage of your dog for example, or with some interesting facts. And it feels so warm and magical, like an old fantasy movie. Paintings are fantastic and there are a lot of valuable information and methods. Please, keep doing what you do.

    Hi James... I wonder how many viewers recognized what you were doing in the beginning of the video when you were over lapping your socks over your pants.... to avoid the ticks you were going to be walking through. Your finished painting made me wonder if you could have had one of your dinosaurs peeking through, maybe a T-rex coming out of the shadows in the distance approaching you. Excellent video again, thank you.
