Just love watching you make this beauty 🌊 good luck to all around the world who’s in for a chance to win this stunning “wave not wave , not long now 👏👏👏👏👏
Amazing!!! I've wondered about this technique of painting water and waves and how they make it so realistic. Then YOU happened and there it is!! A masterpiece! Thank you for sharing your gift with us. Beautiful !!!!
You mentioned phrase three times. I’m so grateful for your inspiration and joy of creating. I couldn’t respond earlier- going through stuff related to those I love. Thank you for drying my tears. I struggle with my blues. I’ve used inexpensive paints but had to get a few good ones. Thank you again. Hope you’re doing ok.
🖌️ Great! Highly appreciate how you not only brought light to the picture! Thank you! Exciting process broken down into single waves to understand a little of that magic ❤
hello Two days ago I discovered you. I subscribed at the lowest price (you understand me and don't mind). Painting with waves fascinates me. I am a beginner, at 79 years old (since the pandemic). Thank you for the messages, clarifications. Be blessed with the whole family. Elena.
Just started painting, always wanted to, just retired. Spent a lot of time watching your tutorials, you are gifted in your presentation. Had a go at your seascape for beginners, family thought it was a great success. Plucking up courage to have a go at this. Wish me luck and thank you for your fabulous channel.
Beautiful work! Thank you for showing me the process, I really enjoyed it❤I love the sound of the Paintbrush brushing the canvas. And I really like the shirt you wore here, it provoked a feeling that I can't describe here.
Das ist wahnsinnig interessant und sehr hilfreich.ich würde nie so ein schönes Bild malen können. Dazu fehlt mir die nötige Erfahrung und Geduld. Danke für die tolle Erklärung hast du super gemalt.
Beautiful painting!!! Love your work! I need to practice more. Thank you so much for the tutorial, Mark. I wanted to tell you that I have very much enjoyed reading your blog on your website. I, myself, am going through treatments, and I found that reading your journaling has helped me- thank you.
You are created another outstanding tutorial. Thank you so much for providing us such high-quality instructions and a beautiful, finished piece of art.
Thanks Mark for the opportunity to be in for a chance to be blessed with this stunning “ Wave not wave 🌊 I heard you say it 7 times This is my most watched tutorial I just love it so much . Thanks for sharing this chance to be blessed with it
Hi. I watched the video three times, listening carefully and learning from you. I'm very glad to have found you. I'm now a new follower on all your media and email subscriber. I heard the exact phrase three times. You mentioned similar wording another three times.... but my answer is three.
Hi Mark I did follow your paintings and I believe you mention the phase 5 times. I do not know if this all I need to do to enter the competition. It's okay I love watching and learning how you see the world.
Hi Mark..The actual phrase "not waves" was 3 times. This tutorial was one of my favorites. Just started to paint along with you in this one. I'll head to the beach at night to be sure I get this right! LOL Looking forward to giving a go at your Tropical sunset as well. As always thanks for taking time to share your talent! Greatly appreciate it! Btw thanks for paint recipes very helpful
I think you said 5 not waves in this video, but even if I'm wrong I got so much from watching and you inspired me to paint a night beach scene by giving me confidence it trying some different techniques . Thanks so much Mark !! xx

I heard “not waves” 7 times. Not sure if it’s a trick question, as the wording was slightly different to the phrase on the email but imma go with 7 🙊🌊 also I love the warmth created by the red & yellow 😍
Once again you have inspired and amazed me to try something new, Mark! Thank you so much for generously sharing your extensive knowledge with us. I was so mesmerised by watching you paint that I might have lost count, but I think you said “not waves” 5 times in total 😊🌊
thanks Mark and Frankie. Really enjoyable to watch Mark create. Tell me - how would you "finish" the painting. Impasto gel or varnish or a combination? Matt/satin/gloss???
It varies sometimes Greg. Generally a coat of Impasto to "lock" in the layers before applying Universal Medium over that. Sometimes it'll be a Matte Varnish though at the end!
Hi Mark. I've watched all your YT videos, and love the video lessons I've purchased on your website, especially the color book. I watched your pallette video, but I've noticed you now use what looks like canvas to mix your colors on. Can you explain what and the thinking behind it?
Hey Kris, it's not canvas (I'm using an old shower curtain in this one) :) And I can understand your confusion! We just use something white for full tutorials so viewers can see the colour mixing process better than they possibly could on my normal grotty palette :D
Just found this tutorial. Thank you so much for sharing. I can’t wait to start this weekend. What do you use for you palette? Is it a roll of paper? I like that idea.
Ok. I have to ask. Whats the white stuff you use on your pallette. I have copied your way of setting out my paint, and love it. The only problem I have is working on old paint. This lastest method looks good to me. I have use Atelier for ages now as it helps my blending, what do you suggest to bring the formula down to the same Free Flow paint.
Ahhh. Look, that white stuff is an old shower curtain that Frankie makes me put down when we're filming so people can see the colour mixing process better. Normally my palette is an old piece of ply that is absolutely covered in paint. Not sure what you mean about bringing the formula down to the same Free Flow? Can you elaborate there?
I knew it wasnt paper but it seemed nylon like, what a great idea. Thank you Frankie. 😍 As interactive is a more heavy body paint, I need to get a thinner paint, like free flow. I use all Atelier mediums but never seem to get the viscosity right when trying to dilute. Do you get out all your paints and then mix the medium in before starting. I know you have videos on Atelier mediums but it seems to be my blind spot.
Sorry Roni, I missed your reply here. I don't actually use the mediums that much. Just a bit of water to be honest. From time to time I'll use some of the thin medium, or I might mix in the Universal Medium with a colour if I want to "lock it down" but yeah, I just mix it up, add some water, slap it on for the most part!
Atelier Interactive Acrylics. Check them out. They are designed so when using Atelier Unlocker you can rework the paint and get better blends. He is using free flow here that can't be reworked, as far as I know. Atelier Interactive is a heavy body paint.

My pleasure 😊 Is the feeling nausea? Usually when people get too close to me this is the feeling they identify 😂
@ExploreAcrylics Definitely not nausea, just like they're definitely not waves😉

Man, you are the beach and seascape master! Love your work!
Just found this tutorial. Thank you so much for sharing. I can’t wait to start this weekend. What do you use for you palette? Is it a roll of paper? I like that idea.
You’re welcome 😊 I think I'm using an old shower curtain for a palette in this video. Normally I'd use a large piece of ply though. Have fun!
Thank you for sharing your expertise. Beautiful painting. I paint in oils, could this be done in that medium?
Yes for sure, the drying time may be an issue though. Just play around with it :)
Ok. I have to ask. Whats the white stuff you use on your pallette. I have copied your way of setting out my paint, and love it. The only problem I have is working on old paint. This lastest method looks good to me. I have use Atelier for ages now as it helps my blending, what do you suggest to bring the formula down to the same Free Flow paint.

I think , while you were faffing around, you might have mentioned painting the not waves six times!
Is your background color dry before you start painting the waves?
Yes :)
Do you work with acrylic or oil? Thank you
Acrylic :)
@@ExploreAcrylics ok thank you
Atelier Interactive Acrylics. Check them out. They are designed so when using Atelier Unlocker you can rework the paint and get better blends. He is using free flow here that can't be reworked, as far as I know. Atelier Interactive is a heavy body paint.
6 times - not waves are mentioned
Really i can winn too?
Yes, you just need to put your entry in before the 31st October to go into the draw to win :)
Why doesn’t your brush ever seem to run out of paint? It must be hooked up to your veins lol..Cheers
hahaha :D
6 times he mentions non waves
Phrase spoke you 4 Times. Is it to late?
