    About realistic painting... I once watched an old guy on a quayside painting a sailing ship sweeping out of the harbour. Someone (not I) asked about the detail of the rigging. The painter replied "I'm not painting the ship, I'm painting its journey." Today you painted scents and tastes and a chat with a friend. Photos can't do that. Many thanks, as ever.

      Margaret -- what a soul-reaching philosophy from that Artist -- THANK YOU for the gift of passing it along! And you are right -- Paul supplied us with scents and tastes and a chat, with this wonderful tutorial!

    Love, love, love this lesson! I’ve dabbled in different art forms my whole life. I’ve never had a formal art lesson, just read books and now found you tube. I am now a 79 year old great-grandmother and have the time to spend doing watercolors, which I’ve fallen in love with! Doing art has saved me during this past year from feeling isolated from friends and family. So glad it’s nearly over. Your videos are a great source of inspiration and education. Thank you so much!

    I always remember your one quote....Less is always more. The leftover unpainted part enhances the beauty of the painting.

    When I was taking art classes in college we did a lot of still life drawings, and some paintings. I started out hating them, but soon began to love them.

    @dawnkieffer6865 3 года назад +4

    Remarkable! I am more amazed at the beauty of your work every time I watch a video. I am 67 years old and started doing watercolor about 3 years ago just for fun. I strive to improve, but it's slow going. That's ok with me. I still enjoy painting and seeing the work of fantastic artists, like you, is what keeps me motivated. Thank you so much for sharing your work.

  • @celiptak
    @celiptak 3 года назад

    Oh, I so agree about realistic vs painterly. I see paintings all the time that do indeed look like a photo and people are in awe of them. And, that's their choice, of course, but I want a painting, not a photo. Thank you for this wonderful lesson!!

    Hello, Paul - I know this is from two years ago, but it caught my eye - I love the composition and the colors. I have been WATCHING your tutorials for quite a while, but never actually PAINTED one. It was time to take the plunge! I thoroughly enjoyed this (including the commentary - which I ALWAYS enjoy in your videos)! In addition, I have also watched a lot of your informational videos about things like paper and brushes - thank you SO much for those as well!

    Loved painting this picture, a change to paint something not a landscape or buildings. Not that I don't like doing your landscapes!! Had to think a bit more, as the printed pdf was different to the tutorial- the bowl had moved.I
    I have learnt so much from your tutorials, & it has kept me going during lockdown, please keep them coming. Thank you.

    BRAVOO Paul! Doing watercolor in hyperrealism is not an art, i did hyperrealism and the paintings sold poorly, that's what the camera is for, i absolutely agree with you.

    Never thought I’d ever want to paint a still life, but you have a convincing way of making me think I can do it. Soaked two papers today, taped them down and ready to go tomorrow when they’re dry. Wonderful news - Bridge at Clun is matted and framed and ready for me to pick up. They phoned too late in the day for me to pick up, so I’ll get it on Monday. I can hardly wait. Until then, I’ll torture some paper with brushes and paints in hopes of coming up with something worthy of your teaching. Thanks Paul! 🥰.
