You're right. Helen's commentary while she paints is definitely a key factor in her popularity. Her "Fly on Your Own" concept, where she equips viewers with the skills to become self-sufficient, resonates with many artists. It's a refreshing approach that empowers students and fosters a sense of creative independence.
Thank you for your kind words. It's great to hear that you're enjoying Helen's lessons. Her teaching style makes learning a joy for many. Your support means a lot.
I must say that I love this woman, and only wish was introduced to her at the time she made these brilliant tutorials, it could have saved me an awful lot of faffing about! Still, better late than never! :)
Thanks for sharing such a kind message. Helen truly had a gift for teaching. Glad her guidance is with you now. Happy painting, and enjoy every new lesson with Helen’s insights!
As important to me as her skii and techniquel are her words, her philosophy of painting, I've always enjoyed hearing her thoughts. What a creative, beautiful mind
Absolutely! Helen's artistic skill and technique are matched by the depth of her philosophical insights and commentary about painting. Her creative mind is inspiring, and her thoughts on art are enlightening and thought-provoking. Thanks for the comment and for supporting the channel. It's appreciated.
Thanks, Another lesson full of information... paint delicates last...backgrounds dictate...body color from center to edge... balance meaning...5 tones... placement...accept unfinished look...i also get the feeling from watching her videos she had a crush on Rembrandt! Listen at 13:00 when she says Rembrandt "was kinda cute".
Yes, that's true. It seems from watching her talk about him in several lessons that there was some professional admiration. A crush? Maybe. Thanks for the comment and your support of the channel.
8/21/24..2day was 'shine & transparency' of brown & white wine bottles with green grapes on right & (seedless) red grapes left. Great job & finished painting made me thirsty! A+✅️..will be watching for more...👍🍷😊
Sounds like you had an enjoyable time. Glad you found Helen's finished painting refreshing and stay tuned for more of Helen's lessons. Thanks for posting.
I assume you are asking about Helen's clothes. Helen passed away many years ago, so a direct answer isn't possible. I don’t recall Helen mentioning clothing during her lessons, but as you watch other lessons, you might find an answer. Thanks for the question. Keep watching and enjoy Helen's other lessons.
Great art teacher! The way everything explained in details while painting, it’s very helpful. Thank you!
