    Paul this is such an amazing tutorial. Any Wednesday you post a video is a wonderful start to my day. Thanks for giving us your time in doing these free tutorials. It is much appreciated by so many of us. You have no idea. And thanks to Margot for the time she puts in on the weekly challenges. 👨‍🎨👩‍🎨🎨

    Paul, thank you for your tutorials! They always remind me that making art is not obsessing over whether I’m ever good enough (which is something I was taught in school and it holds me back most of the time). Making art is about having fun while creating, learning, practicing something and slowly getting better at it as a result. Your channel has always been a great learning resource and inspiration.

    I love how you provided a beginner’s version similar to this one in your book and can’t express how much I appreciate that the pedagogy is created for a “complete” beginner which is hard to find. Once I develop my skills, I’ll definitely return to this and give it a go. Thanks again!

    You are just an amazing artist, to bring out that picture from the first color blobs into a really sophisticated looking night street scene is just incredible. It has so much (European) atmosphere, thanks so much for your tutorials, I really appreciate them all.

    All I could think about work today was getting home to watch your new tutorial ! Your painting and watching it come to life is so magical ! You make it look effortless Paul. Your figures came to life as I watched silently in awe :). Thank you as always, but I may have to pass on this one, it looks a little too advanced for me.

    Everything in this painting is superb. The buildings and the people are marvellously painted. Love how you illustrated the city life at night with the night lights and shades. The cars and the sidewalk looks like real together with the street front. Thank you so much this terrific painting and for another great watercolor wednesday.

    @peldridge2627 2 года назад +6

    This is lovely! I am always so amazed to see a painting come together ... my untrained eye gets lost in the early chaos stage and then to see the painting emerge from random markings always amazes me. Perhaps one day I'll know where I'm going in my own paintings, too.

I’ve been sketching this morning and planning to make a video. You make it look so easy but I know making videos takes time and planning. I know I can speak for everyone that we truly appreciate all you do for us (artists). Very inspiring to watch you paint. God bless you and now I’m off to go paint. 🎨🖌🖼

Thank you for sharing your teaching talents with the world and helping this gal from Idaho watch, paint and grow along with ya. I look forward to Wednesdays to see what Paul will be painting this week! My family knows your voice and my little kids think I know you personally because you are always on my tv or computer.... lol. Tell Margo I also love the Fbook group and challenges. I have grown so much as an artist this year with the both of you motivating and encouraging us all to "give it a go''. Please, keep them coming. Thanks Paul!

    Another Wonderful Wednesday and your magical rendition of an evening cityscape! I really look forward to giving this one a go as I truly enjoy working on any projects that involve lots of perspective. The great challenges for me will be making the vehicles and the figures as realistic as yours. If I can only come close to showing the soft glow of the city lights as beautifully as you have, I will be a very, very happy old gal! 👩‍🦳🖌️

Such work is very much appreciated at the exhibition and auction! Smart and great talent! Your picture is saturated with an abundance of many elements and details: people, cars, lights, steps, windows .... I want to look endlessly at this nightlife and it looks like a living thing, the picture looks great! The color contrast is especially emphasized, in a combination of bright yellow and black! Paul you are a master of painting, I really respect you and your talent! Now I want to take brushes and paints and immediately draw the same picture as yours! ♥️👍👍👍👍🖼️🖼️🖼️🎨🎨🎨👩‍🎨👩‍🎨👩‍🎨
