That book is the single most important thing aswell as your videos on RUclips, that have seen me improve my acrylic paintings beyond belief. So much so, that I've now sold a few paintings. All by applying the techniques in the book and on videos.
Really enjoy your videos. I'm painting with oils again after spending several years almost exclusively with watercolor and pastel and I find your acrylic videos translate beautifully. Such a pleasure and so informative.
It is simply astonishing....an unimaginable lightness of creation... I could watch this over and over again. ..... And than I realise that i was not given this ability..... So I go amd i do my sicilian caponata... Well my husband says that it should be in Louvre , ahah... So in a a way I 'm alao doing sone art. Ahahah😅
I am in the USA but my ancestors were from north umber there last name was Knotts but just to let you know I love how you teach I am learning so much I don't think people know how nice it is to be able to learn right in there own home I can not get around .I will be 80 soon .no one told me that it would get harder go and do
Hello Charles, it's great to see you paint, but you always make it look so easy. I took my brother to one of your painting workshops at Rochester many years ago. Clinton still refers to your books and some of the pictures he has painted many times. He hasn't gone out much since he feels safer at home. Now I'm retired I have had more time to paint - I'm still rubbish, but I enjoy trying. thank you so much for sharing your art and giving so many of us so much pleasure and of course hints and tips. I would love to go on one of your workshops again, but ill health (cancer) it won't be possible, so you see these videos to me are priceless. Thank you so much, you are a wonderful artist and a beautiful person. Please stay safe and bless you. x😊
Closed into the house because of the Coronavirus. Always wanted to paint so I thought this would be a great time to start. Happened onto your videos which motivated me. Got some canvas boards and acrylics locally. Found some brushes which my wife used years ago which are crappy and not up to the task. Ordered some supplies from your store and can’t wait till they arrive in the US. Love your instructional style. Keep safe.
Would you mind terribly sharing with me what the shipping costs approximately, ballpark-ish to you in the US were? ie. About the same as the supply cost? Or half the supply cost, etc? I would hate to order something then see the shipping is 3x the cost of the supplies. I would appreciate a heads up. I know it won't be exact for what I may order. Just to get an idea. Ex. I saw something on eBay for 8.95, then additional cost was 45.98. That's just crazy. Thanks.
@@annettefournier9655 Ordered 10 tubes, brush set, Stay-wet palette, and acrylics book. Charged £8.00 shipping for everything. Total came to about $100. Very reasonable I think. I get your point-if shipped from the US the cost is way up there.
@@wentletube Thanks very much. I appreciate your reply. I wish to order a couple of Charlie's books. I have quite enough paint, pallets, and brushes.👍😁
Thanks Charles for another great video. Sound volume perfect this time. I so love your sense of humour 😁. Ordered your book and brushes today and can’t wait til they arrive here in British Columbia. Stay safe .....and keep’em coming ✌️
I have recently found your RUclips videos and am enjoying your teaching immensely! Thank you for posting these. I have just placed an online order from your site so very much looking forward to painting along. This Corona-19 virus is keeping us all inside but also learning new skills! We are located in Alberta, Canada where we just received a snowfall of 20 cm. Looking forward to reading your book on acryllics. Please keep safe and happy painting!
It’s so good to watch your videos again, thank you for taking the time to do this. I would love to see you use the water soluble oils if that’s possible. I watched you do a demonstration last year at Patchings art fair and as always it was great. 😊
Thanks Charlie. My sister does acrylics, though seldom landscapes. She likes doing human form and specific subjects .I'll send her a link . Will you be doing a demo in oils as Well? We could be on lockdown for a while yet. I do mostly watercolors but I dabble in acrylics and oils as well for variety and sanity. 😉💙
Hi Charles. Thank you for another acrylics demo. I'm a beginner painter and you have helped me tremendously. I enjoy your approach. I copy your work and learn so much. Could you please provide the url to your website. I want to try the System 3 paints.
Beautiful panting Charles, thanks for sharing it with us. I bought your book recently and have begun having a go with acrylics. Could I ask you if there's anything you can do or get that will slow down the drying time of acrylics? I live in a very hot climate and the paint dries really fast which makes it difficult to blend, etc sometimes. Many thanks
Was there a reason, apart from sponsorship (which is no reflection on you) why you switched from Winsor and Newton to Daler-Rowney? Both are good - in acrylics and watercolour at least - not so much in oil paint; but did you decide that one was better than the other? And while we're at it - how do you prevent the build-up of mould in your stay-wet palette? I've tried white vinegar to clean it up with, which does help a lot; or that baby bleach - Milton's fluid, or something.... but I've not managed to keep the stay-wet palette entirely clear of mould after a month or so.
I had been with Daler Rowney for 15 years previous to Winsor’s so went back to where I belonged and to where the product had improved. I’ve never really had that much of a problem with mould. However after a month, I think you’ve had your monies worth. Don’t you?
Charles followed you for years love your demos ,I have canvas but im using 200 to 250 lb weight watercolour we that be ok ,I use canvas for abstract art, of which I do a lot of, anyway hope your well and keeping away from the illness thats going about as I no it plays havoc on your work regards Dave
Yes that paper is a nice weight. Pleased you’re enjoying them. This flu just stops me being out on the road, but doesn’t stop me being busy. Take care.
Doesn't the canvas suck much of the acrylic when it's not gessoed first? Btw, I use a chalk to draw when I've done the underpainting. But, of course, it depends on the subject matter. I like your tutos very much. Thank you and happy easter to you and your dear ones. 🐣🐑🐥
When and why have you stopped promoting Windsor and Newton art materials and Cottam brushes for Daler and Rowney art materials and Aquafine brushes and paints. Either way I love the end results in the fabulous paintings of yours. I took up painting landscapes mainly in watercolours and occasionally acrylicc about 15 years ago. I have benefited watching the videos and books and gained many tips. Have sold more than a few and believe your tips have helped me improve my techniques to a point that I'm fairly satisfied (though not always) with my finished artwork. Looking forward to seeing more of you on RUclips.
Hi Charles.I recently bought a selection of acrylics from your art shop.I notice you don't sell them in Ultramarine.Is there a reason? Sorry to ask on here but I can't see a way to ask on your website.
I've always had difficulty with trees. Thanks! I always have difficulty trying to figure out what to put in the foreground, any tips on that would be appreciated. I have this book by the way. Bought it last year =)
Charles it is absolutely POINTLESS if we can't HEAR it. Can you please get the audio right before UPLOADING it. The volume on our iPads are maxed out, and we still cannot hear your comments, other than a feint grumbling mumbling sound and this is really worth getting . Thank you.
You thumbdowners, I'm gonna hunt thee down and paint thou bollockses Hooker's Green! And cut your thumbses off! Don't mind them Charlie. We appreciatives love you :)
Ahahaha. Some people live their lives liking not to like. I suppose it gives them pleasure in some sad way!! You wait for the first thumbs down and laugh.
The brush, paint, water, paper, all of them obay you and dance according to your wish and create whatever you want, beautifully!!
Thank you very much.
Oh wow, stunning picture. I adore your skies.....take care and be safe
Wow! This is really good art! I am totally blown away! I wish I could do this at that level! Keep up the amazing work! 😊😇👏🏽
Thank you so much.
@@charlesevans7706 Of course! No problem! 😊just keep being awesome! 😎

I would, but they would make a video a bit long for my liking on RUclips. I don’t like heavy editing, I like everyone to see everything!
@@charlesevans7706 Ala Prima??😬
I bought your book it's very exciting to work from thanks!
Enjoy!

I live in a very hot climate and the paint dries really fast which makes it difficult to blend, etc sometimes. Many thanks
There is yes, but I just put more water in the mixes
@@charlesevans7706 Thanks. I'll try that
Please show us how you prep your canvases. What was a stain you used?
Nothing to show really. As I said in the video, it’s raw sienna and just paint the whole canvas with it!

It still feels like watercolour techniques.
Yes.
Another great video, thanks for posting, that's tomorrow's project sorted!
Ahahaha, enjoy!
Thank you
YOU have a lot of paint do you do oil paintings
Yes I do.
"That finger!" 😱
