Beautiful. Thanks for talking about the idea of a mother color. It's not talked about and/or perhaps not well understood by artists. I've been trying to rap my head around it for a while now.
Thank you for the compliment- I had so many beautiful experiences while traveling in Italy -I was always welcome like family - now its so hard to watch the news...
Another great video and beautiful painting. Your art is a window on hope and your generosity is a great gift of love. Thank you so much Gary and take care to all of you. Think positive, in Italy we are saying "Andrà tutto bene"
This is a totally different level and approach to painting an outdoor covered market scene that I've ever seen. The atmosphere is ethereal and conjours up the almost musty smells that one could imagine from such a place. I'll definitely have a go at something like this, paying special attention to the three concepts you've demonstrated here: mother colour, light bounce and transparency.
Thank you for how you taped this session. For me, seeing the details of your painting setup and watching your brush loading the paint clarified a lot for me. So thank you. I would appreciate more videos shot like this.
You make it look so free and easy to do. As a beginner I realize how long a journey it is to get to that point. Enjoy your videos thank you for sharing your insight. You are a master watercolor artist.
Beautiful colors, Gary. Thank you for remembering the folks in Italy going through this horrid disease. And thank you for your generosity in giving us this gift. I love all your paintings.
Very bold colours, very impressive work. Very sad what is happening in the world right now. I met a lot of good people in Puglia. Thank you so much for sharing this.
Another beautiful work Gary. Your RUclips videos are both an inspiration and extremely instructive. I feel I'm finally improving in great part to your natural teaching ability. Many thanks.
Thanks again for a wonderful painting , I'll go try my luck using the same technique. Also my thoughts go out to all affected (especially) in Italy. While not infected myself I'm in self isolation for 14 days in Australia having just returned from oversea's. We will get through this and travel again, stay safe Gary and continue to bring us your entertaining videos.
Thx Graeme - I appreciate your self isolating...Self isolation produces some interesting side effects such as more painting time - a chance to reflect, and appreciation of the small joys in life :)
Great video and beautiful painting. Your art is a window on hope and your generosity a powerfull connection. Thank you so much Gary also for the final message to my country. In this hard days we use to say "andrà tutto bene" (wich means "everything will be allright") take care to everybody
Hi Gary, I have only just come across your beautiful work. Thank you for inspiring me to take up watercolour painting again. Your style is exactly what I was looking guidance on and I am going to use the furlough downtime to reacquaint myself with painting. Paul Bradley.
Gorgeous, love the interior and the feeling of activity within the scene. Love this work as well. I hope you are well. And yes , we wish all love during this terrible time.
Gary your painting as a good lesson to learn the new way of presentation the interior painting. I will try your way for my painting,using mother colour to unify the whole picture. Thank you for giving hopes and brightness.
Thank you so much Garry. Again a very helpful, masterful and super beautiful work.. You are a great teacher, Best regards to you and all visitors, stay well 🌹💖👏👏👏😊
Bless you Gary and those close to you, at a time when humanity would rather delete it from our shared evolution. Your work inspires myself and budding family members also, so please continue to share this great work, we love you! from the UK.
That painting gives a wonderful feeling of that reflected glow of the drapes Gary. I'd like to know if you decide on a mother colour for all your paintings or just the ones where you feel there IS an overall colour. Should we have a colour in mind? I still haven't got used to how you begin a painting- the drawing that's just a scribble and such powerful colours that amateurs like me would panic over. Maybe this confidence takes time. Thanks for your kind thoughts. Painting helps me and others here take our minds off this difficult time.
Barbara - great questions always - I look for that mother color most of the time because it is so helpful to create unity in the painting - yes most of my drawings are very simple which in the long run allows me to say more with brush work :)
Hi, Gary. This was lovely! I wondered if you had any suggestions, online tutorials perhaps (?) for improving drawing/sketching abilities -- the perspective and architecture aspects of this piece were quite interesting and I admire your fluency in mastering a good sketch. Hope you're safe and healthy. Best, Andrea
Thanks Andrea - I have not looked for much in the way of RUclips offerings for drawing though this is where t ... Ted Kautzky (he has a few books out and was a master draftsman, watercolorist, and teacher... Learn more: www.amazon.com/dp/B00A62YG7A/ref=cm_sw_em_r_mt_dp_U_lQAOEb0QYE0RD
Gary Tucker wonderful! I will check it out. Thank you. I tried to incorporate your technique of illumination in my own composition using a lily pond. I would enjoy learning how better to attain clean lines and washes, perspective and painting shapes, defining them in watercolor. Thanks for your time and guidance.
Gary Tucker I am also interested in how you think about the techniques needed for a certain painting/composition: yellow ochre wash vs ult marine blue or other washes and how much detail can be accomplished while first wash is still wet, second washes. Dry brush. I imagine compositions require varying techniques; which comes with time, practice and talent?! :))) thank you
Masterful use of transparency and adding to the visual dynamics. Before you did the final work did you have to experiment with the darks to understand how much of the red underpainting would come through, or did you just know based on all you experience over the years? Wonderful work. Wishing you the best.
I have seen this scene painted often in videos, but you explained your approach so well Gary. Thank you. One question: you put a lot of pressure on your initial red brushstrokes. What was your purpose in doing so?
Thx Maria - I press the brush into the paper a little bit to gain a little control of the rough edge that is creating the portico. this works on a first layer or on a painting that's bone dry - if its wet you can lift the paint...
Sorry to be confused about the mother color in this painting… Is it the cadmium red orange that you are using in the awnings? Or is it the blend of the three colors that you used to make the near black color?
It’s wonderful to watch the details appear, such as the subtle pained figure in the foreground
Many thanks, Anne
Very powerful use of tone and colour. There's a really striking illusion of bright illumination streaming into the hall.
Beautiful. Thanks for talking about the idea of a mother color. It's not talked about and/or perhaps not well understood by artists. I've been trying to rap my head around it for a while now.
I love your style of paintings - without painting any details, your painting conveys the details through a beautiful match of hues and tones.
Thank you Suresh - I appreciate your impressions
Great warm colors !
I've watched this one so many times. Thanks, Gary.
Amo suas aquarelas Gary !
Another very nice painting, Gary, and thoughtful comments for the people of Italy who are overwhelmed by this terrible pandemic. Thank you.

Thank you sir, prayers from India
Loved watching this. You make it look so easy. Any tips for a beginner with watercolor?
draw, draw, draw, and paint what you want :)
Lovely painting. Which black do you use? Looks like mars black. ??
Neutral Tint by sennelier

Yes - red in general is the mother color here…red was mixed into most of the colors used - including the dark balck
Excellent painting 👍 Gary sub and like 👍 😊 👍
