Paul, I'm 71 one years old and I've always wondered what I wanted to be when I grow up.... and I decided...... I want to be YOU!! Well, okay maybe not because you do such a wonderful job of being you and I would totally mess it up.... But, I do want to learn how to paint in this loose flowy way. I love it!! My problem is I try to control the paint too much and it ends up controlling me... I'm so glad to be on this journey though... it has been a lot of fun. I hope you have a wonderful week.. see you next time! Sending lots of love from Alabama!
Another one of your brilliant comments Shirley! - many thanks!!!
Would you believe Shirley Ping...l’m also seventy one and l always wanted to be a children’s book illustrator when l grew up ....lm just getting round to it now and like you.....lm learning so much from Mr Clark!
You’re a funny, talented guy. Now I’m craving a Cadbury bar.
You can't beat a bit (or a whole bar) of Dairy Milk!!!
@@ArtbyPaulClark I have seen you using some innovative technics like wrapping plastic sheet, sponge, etc. for painting. So initially I thought that Cadbury Dairy Milk was also going to be used for a new technique! ;-) But let me tell you, your's is the only channel that gives us elaborate and clear instructions about various water colour techniques! Your are a great artist and a great teacher too! Admire you Sir!
You’re personality plus, Paul. I’m so grateful for your light-hearted and informative manner!!
Wow, thank you!🤩
I feel improvement in my paintings after following your tutorial thanks
Thank you for this tip about pastels.... I discovered one box full of oil pastels into my husband old, old desk.... Now it is mine!!
Wonderful! - I'm sure he won't miss them!!!
I enjoyed this immensely and will try it tomorrow. Thanks for embellishing your presentations with humor (humour).
My first visit, but not my last. Thank you!
Thank you Carlos and welcome!
I love Ray Balkwill ‘s work, wish I’d found that book! I did a workshop with him a decade ago, very inspiring. In fact, I was lucky enough to be able to purchase one of his demonstration watercolours (enhanced with pastel) which has pride of place in my dining room. Thanks for mentioning him on your channel!
Totally agree Diane!
Have you met Ray?
Watching your video has the power to turn a bad day into a very good one. Thanks for sharing your art with us all. Take care !
Thank you so much - nice of you to say! 😀
Oh my gosh, Paul, you had me laughing out loud at the end with your fixative ‘demo’. What a beautiful scene you created! I am thoroughly enjoying learning all these techniques, you are not only a brilliant artist but a wonderful teacher. Your words of encouragement are very helpful and much appreciated. I am so happy to be one of your subscribers. Many thanks!
Glad you enjoyed it Didi!
Love the painting and the laughs - need both - thanks so much!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Watched this video on a weekday office hours during a tea-break :-) It gave me more kick than the tea :-D
Hope you enjoyed it!
Your tutorials are amazing. This is a beautiful piece. Thank you for your generosity in sharing your gifts with us.
You are so welcome!
Thoroughly delightful!! Thank you for the strong encouragement and your generosity with your sketches!
You are so welcome!
...Ease in everything: in the manner of communication; in an airy and light landscape; in unsurpassed humor !!! A talented artist, teacher and actor all rolled into one! A sea of positive and inspiring start! I admire and get inspired!!!
Hey, great comment - thanks very much!!
You know it's a "Paul Clark" original with the signature splatter & magic etching! 😁 I enjoy artists creative way of using mixed media in their painting. It's a balmy -9c here... so nice to sit on the sofa with my blanket and cup of tea and watch you create something lovely, Paul. Thank you. 🎨🖼
Oh thank you Gina! - little cold here too - we are expecting an inch of snow on Sunday so I'm certain the county will come to a stand still!!!
I look forward to every Wednesday to see what you will have for us. This was another wonderful, easy to understand lesson. I ordered your brushes and they arrived yesterday. I LOVE them! My painting came out great...might be the brushes...might be that I am finally getting better! I think both!
Thank you thank you! Rose
Thank you so much Rose and delighted to hear you are enjoying the brushes!!!!
I love it I love it I love. You make me escape to a better place. We all need bit of Paul nowadays 🤗
Thanks so much Danke!
This one is a beauty Paul, might be one of my top 5 favorites. I love all your paintings but this one is especially beautiful to me. You are a fantastic teacher and artist! You don’t waste time talking our ears off, you focus on teaching but you make time to entertain us as well. No other artist/painter on RUclips compares to you. I’ve been teaching decorative painting here in New England for over 40 years. I have students that have been with me for 25-30 years so I must know a great teacher when I see one!
Thanks so much for lovely comment! - especially from an experienced teacher! ... much appreciated!
@@ArtbyPaulClark …. I feel honored that you were able to read my comment and respond. I was sitting in the car with my husband waiting to go into the doctor’s office for a visit, and I saw your reply. I said “Paul Clark wrote back to me!” He knows your name now because I watch at least one of your videos every day! He was excited for me, thank you, you made my day!!!
I love your tutorials, apart from being very interesting, and lively, you make me smile.
I'm so glad!
Thanks again for such a joyful and beautiful video! You provide so many helpful tips and information in each video which keeps drawing us on to another one. I am so grateful! 🙏🏼👩🏻🎨
I'm so glad!... cheers Joanna!
I could watch you paint for hours. I love them all!
Thank you so much 😀
Your delightful personality and knowledge makes watching your videos a great way to learn. Thank you for sharing with us.
You are so welcome
Beautiful painting! A really great demonstration on how to use pastel in watercolour painting. Thank you!
My pleasure 😊
Thank you so much Paul!. For your talent, and for your sense of humour too. It's a pleasure to watch all your videos.
Glad you like them!
Oh my! I’ve just discovered you here. I am new to art and clearly have so much to learn, yet watching you is pure delight!
Oh thank you! ... and a big welcome Colleen!
Hi Paul, so happy to have found you! Started watercolors back in the 90's, not knowing what the heck I was doing. Then I switched to acrylic. I am blowing the dust off my old tubes and you've inspired me to try again! Love your humor, you are so talented and a great teacher!!
Thanks very much Angela!
You made me laugh so hatd with your sense of humor!!!!!😄😄😄😄😄😄
Thank you!!!!!
That's great to hear Lourdes!
Love your art! I’ll start adding pastels to my watercolors! Thank you for the beautiful paintings you do!
I often mixed pastels, pencils and watercolours and felt weird for doing so. Now I see your video and I see there's even a book about it... I feel much happier!
I use sometimes oil pastels when I want to add a reflection or a spot of light I want to be sure it won't mix with the rest, but yeah, they're sticky.
Personally I love my collection of handmade pastels. I bought them in Northern Ireland, and they're the softest brightest thing I've seen in my life. They're big rounded chunks you can buy in boxes or separately. I totally recommend them. :-)
Thanks for useful info Silvia!
Just watched this one again - wonderful how it takes shape ! So glad it is MINE !
Haha - glad to hear! ... don't mention the lost painting!!!!
Wie immer ganz tolle Anregungen. Ich mag die Videos sehr.🎨🖼
Vielen Dank Paul.
Thank you Elke!!
I love your tiny bits of advice and encouragement you throw into your tutorials. I struggle with being a perfectionist and am afraid of failing, so your little bit advice spoke to me. Take care.
You are so welcome!
Brilliant! Thanks for the reminder on the pastels. I've been wanting to experiment with this. I have the Pitt pencils and really want to employ them in a watercolor. Beautiful piece here Paul!
Hi Steve - thanks for the comment, really appreciate it. I've been following your channel for years and have always thought yours is one of the best - always informative with top quality work! - keep in touch!
@@ArtbyPaulClark Oh thanks Paul! Very kind of you to say so. I'm flattered.
Wow .. I'm amazed seeing the Convo of both of you.. I'm both your follower ... you both are great ❤️
I was asked to do a demonstration on how to use those inscribe pastels as there was a promotion on them and they thought it might help sales. I used them like pans of watercolour by just adding water on the brush and picking up the colour. I demonstrated shading by adding colour to areas directly on to the paper then going over it with the brush dragging the wet colour over it blending the colours. The people didn't know you could do that and 3/4 of stock sold that day. Going outside the box I think they call it
Brilliant! - thanks for sharing that, I'll have to try that out!
Thank you Paul for your excellent tutorials. I'm a beginner and find your instruction and examples to be most helpful and inspirational.
You're very welcome!
Thanks again. Always looking forward to your videos.
Glad you like them!
Paul so nice to be able to back over how to videos of yours and practice from them. Slowly getting there, thank you.
Great to hear!
I could watch you paint for hours. So soothing and amazing to watch how they develop. Very inspirational.
Pleased to hear that Adele!
Never be afraid to make mistakes... This is my problem. Thank you so much for sharing your paints. Joëlle from France
You are so welcome Joëlle from France!
Never be afraid to make a mistake... Perfect advice. Thank you once again.
My pleasure!
Soo love to see you rock&roll over the paper... what a brilliant piece this became!! 😍😍😍
Thank you so much!

Glad you like them!
@@ArtbyPaulClark great l really enjoyed this lesson
Thank you so much Paul! Your videos are great and you are so generous to provide drawings and instruction on RUclips. I love your book also.
Glad you like them Lesley!!
Very interesting and wow how the pastels take a great painting to the next level. As it’s evening here I enjoyed watching it over a glass of wine.
Thank you so much 😀
Thanks Paul, always informative and entertaining.
Glad you enjoyed it
Thank you for this magical tutorial, really enjoyed learning. I love the way the white paper comes through and shines on the fronts of the houses. I like your musics.
You are so welcome!
Just fantastic Paul I have only recently found your tutorials and I am so inspired by them. You give me great hope that with lots of practice doing your lessons I will someday be able to do an acceptable watercolour painting on my own. I will keep trying. i just LOVE it. Thank you for all your inspiration.
Fantastic! and a big welcome Marion!
Thanks a lot for rhis video Paul. I had always thought that a "pure" watercolor picture should have only watercolor paints, today with this video i'm convinced about mixing techniques. Thank you so much.
Glad you enjoyed it
I Love your videos! My girls and I look forward to each one, and they love trying to recreate your work with their 6 and 4 year old painting skills. Thank you for sharing your stunning talents and inspiring me to improve my own skills as a painter! I tend to be a tight, planned out painter, but I'm happier painting when I'm more loose and relaxed, and your videos help me get more into that mindset and encourage me to loosen up more, so I truly thank you!!
I'm so glad!
Thank you Paul, very different, I'm not too fond of pastels on their own but will give this a go, enjoying your weekly tutorials so much down my shed! best wishes
You are very welcome
Thankyou Paul for a link you shared .very nice tutos .You are my best find . Thankyou genius
You are very welcome
Oh Paul (OMG I've just reminded myself of the deranged nurse in the film 'Misery' who always greeted her bedridden victim with a lovestruck 'Oh Paul'). Moving swiftly along. Hi Paul. This is an amazing tutorial and I can't wait to dig out my 20 year old box of pastels and there may be a lot of digging involved, but when used in moderation as you have done here, it really adds a wonderful little pop of 'light' to the painting and it is such a simple thing to do but so effective. I am so glad you showed us how to do this. So many thanks again as always for all your generosity and good humour, signed, Annie Wilkes 😱
Always a pleasure!!!
I always enjoy seeing you paint and learn something new. Your added humor always makes me laugh. Love all the textures and earthy tones in this painting. 😊👍
Thank you so much!
The colours are beautiful, definitely going to try.
This is my absolute favourite RUclips channel!
Ah, so nice of you to say Lars!
Thank you for another fabulous tutorial. This loose style is definitely something to practice. Also I’ve been using your suggestion to limit the pallet and do my own mixing. Very helpful for learning. Thank you again so much.
You are so welcome!
Thank you Paul, I LOVE it! Mix media art work 👍
Great to hear!
As always, funny, educational and uplifting... Thank you for sharing your time and your talent!
Glad you enjoyed it
It is such a pleasure to watch you paint! Your experience has given you such confidence, and you have a natural intuition about form and color. Everything looks so natural. Love it. Thank you for all the information in the tutorial. I'll give it a try.
Go for it Dixie!
Really liked this one Paul. Would love to see more of this type of thing. Thanks for the inspiration.
Thanks, will do!
Wow , what a beautiful painting again ! I’m painting for years with watercolor but never, ever thought to combine them with pastels !

Hi, Paul! Thank you for your work. I love your videos so much! I watch and draw with great pleasure. I'm just learning to draw, but I really like the process. You clearly explain and comment, and show the process in detail. Thanks a lot! I also want to say that I like your pronunciation, I understand your English well (for me it is a foreign language, I am from Russia). And in conclusion, I want to admire your humor! Your videos are so warm, kind, and humorous! Thank you very much! Greetings from Moscow! =)

Thank you for taking time for these wonderfully entertaining and informative videos. I really have learned alot from your videos, more so than with the books I have bought.
Great to hear!
I decided to give this one a go. It was great fun, I learned a lot, and I am pretty happy with the results. It helped that I watched your color theory video. I am learning to tell myself, “enjoy the process and don’t get too hung up on the outcome.” Thanks again ☺️
Glad you enjoyed it!
Lovely! Looks very inviting! I like a touch of pastel on a watercolour painting!
Many thanks
That was fun. Loved using the pastels. It was the first time I've used them. Really brightened it up!
