I love your joke about the first 20 days in January. I laughed out loud because I'm a beginner and automatically tuned to seriousness in watching water color tutorials.
OMG! I love his humour! And he delivers it so well. Good comedic timing and acting. I just found Paul this week and I think he’s going to change my life! 💙💙 Excellent teaching, speaking, gosh everything. Sorry for commenting all this on you!! 😊
You are so welcome Bonnie! - skies and seas my two favourite things to paint ... oh, and trees, .... and reflections .. and landscapes ... and flowers.... I'll stop now.
Completely agree with those who commented on Paul's droll humor! I love the well paced and clear explanations throughout (many painting tutorials have no talking at all). These lessons are super!
I continue to be impressed and heartened by how approachable your techniques are, how repeatable your instructions/demos are. It's a gift you give us with each of the short sessions you publish. Thank you for de-mystifying some of the harder parts of watercolour painting.
Thank you Paul, I have been watching a lot of watercolor tutorials these days, your videos are my favorite!!! They are so helpful! Although they look much easier than when I actually tried, my paintings did improved a lot through following your guidance. Thank you so much for being an awesome teacher!
I just love the beautiful big skies and beautiful big skies is what I’ve just watched. Paul, you’re a true craftsman at creating them! Truly amazing to watch them come to life before my eyes. Thank you for the beautiful lesson. I’m now to dedicate a study book to skies, nothing more!
Thank you for being a wonderful teacher - I enjoy watching your videos and feel I learn so much - truly appreciate that you are online!! I have purchased one of your books, and your online lessons help to bolster those lessons as well.
Thanks for these tutorials! I wish to start painting more landscapes and seascapes. I cannot attend your lessons because I don't live in the UK but these tutorials will be my guide. Very well explained!
Paul, as a professor myself (and having had many, many teachers on my way there) I have ALWAYS found that the finest teachers employ a good sense of humor with the teaching. It never fails to relax the student and opens up so much for them. I thought I might have to use my inhaler after the 20 days of January thing; for 1/2 second I was actually trying to observe! Then bang! Great comedy. Thanks, as always. J
Thant's a great comment, thanks J - I think it goes way back to my old history teacher, who everyone loved. He would dress up and suddenly apear behind the desk in things like a Roman helmet and then follow on in an Italian accent! Learned lots and still love history ... probably down to him!
I think you’re absolutely amazing! I took up painting when I retired and love to watch your work. So inspiring, that’s all I do in the evening, just watch your fabulous videos!! Soooo inspiring. Thank you very much for taking the time to create these videos. Very much appreciated. Pat Dixon from the East Midlands
Wow, wow, wow! I’ve been wasting my time. Should’ve been watching you from day 1! Seeing your paintings, and how easy you make it look, really inspires me! Thank you, thank you, thank you!
This tutorial is very helpful, I appreciate your techniques and way of teaching which is helping me a lot. I have a request can you give some tips on how to draw snow covered field or lake.
These are great mini-tutorials on painting skies; really enjoyed doing them. Appreciated seeing your paintings at the end using the different skies and techniques from the tutorials. Thanks Paul!
Refreshed my technique as I'm getting ready to do an Arizona sunset sky. The mixture of yellow and red with the red/blue wisps is perfect for what I have in mind. Can't thank you enough for your calm demeanor and easy method. Really enjoy learning from you.
love Paul as he doesn't faff about but gets right down to the point! So many artists haven't figured out what theyre going to say and witter on.....(most common with Americans!)
Absolutely gorgeous! Pretty skies, dancing skies, thundering skies and dusk skies...and as always, you make it seem effortless 😊 Nature and your nature flowing together...
Your watercolour tips are so helpful! I'm so glad I found your channel. Had the pleasure to visit the English countryside in the past few years and you guys have the most amazing views ever.
I’m so glad found your channel! Just changed from cellulose paper to real Arches 100% cotton. Found hard to learn new paper’s properties & last 4 skies turned into (even gradient) of two glaze so will try again & looking at sky each day great idea for practice!
Hello! Just wanted to tell you how much I have been enjoying your lessons! I think you're giving me just the kind of food for thought I needed just now. I live in a place with a lot of amazing skies. I have been photographing them for a few years and can't wait to try some of these ideas. Hope you have a splendid New Year, Paul, all health and happiness!
I have only been exploring watercolour since January. I really appreciate your teaching style. I have recently got your book and am looking forward to working through it alongside your video instruction. I find that l really enjoy working on skies and landscapes. You make it look so easy. Thank you.
That's very kind and many thanks - I really hope you enjoy my book. Just take it nice and slowly and don't put too much pressure on your self to paint a masterpiece straight away! - One of the things I always say to my beginners is 'Never be afraid to make mistakes - you learn as much from these as your successes' - good luck and most important of all - have fun!
Hi, thank you for the awesome video. Thank you for sharing your wonderful talent and knowledge. Your lessons are wonderfully straightforward and easy to follow. And so much fun!
Hi Paul. Thank you for sharing your time teaching such absolutely beautiful watercoloring. During this most difficult time for most people, your sense of humor along with your obvious love of watercoloring helps many who are stuck inside.keep their sanity.
What a great variety and it looks like fun! Beautiful paintings at the end with interesting skies; thanks for sharing this helpful tutorial. In California we have a beautiful blue sky every day so this video offers some great ways to expand our horizons! Your classes bring a breath of fresh air every time viewed! 👌🎨
Definitely the best teaching video I have seen in how to do watercolour skies. You've explained everything in good detail step by step. Brushes to use, wetting the paper, percentage of paint pigment, when to dry. Easy to follow. Keep up the good work. More videos please!
I was in UK for 3 weeks in April 2019 and the skies then were almost the same as your January skies :). Loved visiting your country and hope to visit again. Anyway thank you for your great videos. Learning lots from your generous teaching.
I have watched several sky tutorials. Yours is by far the best. I love the way your work always has a spontaneous look. I will work on this today as my stay at home project..😀
Favorite tutorials ever! Thank you Paul for being so inspiring. Great Teacher with perfect encouraging Teacher Voice. Your art works are soooo beautiful. Well, I need to practice now! I am absolute beginner. Gratitude for your tips and inspiration.
After many years away from watercolour painting, I’m getting reacquainted with the medium. I’ve just discovered you and your work; I love your sense of humour and your talent is skilled. January in Vancouver, BC (Canada) looks much the same as your UK skies studies! Thank you for sharing your techniques in action. I will be using more pigment for sure.
Wonderful ways of painting skies. Everytym u taught everything in such wonderful ways. Hearty Thanks to you sir for ur dedicated tutorials which help me kinda beginners a lot. ❤️
I’m watching in later July near the east coast of the US. I also love your paintings of winter! I love your skies and I appreciate your sharing of your art!
I’ve been struggling with skies for a while but after following this guide I have finally produced some really nice effects. Just subbed and looking forward to watching more of your excellent tutorials 👍
I’m blown away ~ still reeling at my having found you online! My dad was an airline pilot, so worldwide cloud-scapes have been a big part of my life. I’m beginning a daily study here in San Jose, California. Finally a reason for 2021!
Your mini tutorials are very encouraging and motivating ....Day by day ,trying these techniques and learning new ones are very precious for me as a beginner...thank you again.
