Nice painting, though The tree trunks are a bit brown… the foliage is nice, gives a lightness to the whole image and adds a little complexity. I wondered about you keeping aureolin on your palette though… was glad you did not use it… not sure whether it is lightfastness or oxidising but it turns an unpleasant greyish colour with time. It’s ok if you have it anyway and want to use it up on practice work, I suppose. Nice to watch you work….
I don't know what it is but this scene has me visioning Charlie Brown or the original Winnie the Poo. Just walking down the path. Since both of these are dear to my heart, I love it. Also, kudos to a fellow ambidextrous artist.
Even if your were right handed, it wouldn’t have been easy. It’s the soft version of running your nails across a chalk board board 😂. I end up with paper fibres in my nib or with a torn surface.
it does look a little like, the light is coming from - kind of - the north/north/west side of the picture. slightly left side of the hill's peak. the shadows indicate the sun beaming from the left. so - kind of - west side of the picture. or maybe west/north/west.what do you think?
Thank you for watching nd commenting 🙏 Yes it's much easier to get hold of Baohong here in Asia. Hopefully it will become more available in Europe soon.
Nice job. Good composition, perspective and depth. To foliage or not to foliage, that is the question...Sometimes we just have to try stuff and see how it turns out.
I like it when you paint for us...I hope you'll do more. Highlights and shadows really enhanced your pretty composition. I liked the addition of foliage.
Actually, I like the foliage; it brings the whole scene together and add depth. I also like your colour choices, the painting is so harmonious.
Thank you very much 🙏
I like that
Thank you 🙏
Terrific job, Jay. at first I was like, Nooooo, dont add the foliage! But I like it both ways! Thanks for the video
Haha Thanks 🙏 I wasn't so happy with the foliage but it's all good practice ☺️
I like the foliage. I liked it without too. 🤷♀ I enjoy watching you paint rectangles and actual paintings. 😁
Haha! Painting rectangles always gets more views though 🤣
Thank you for the video! Love the colours and listening to your calm voice!

I think hot press paper is the right choice for dip pens. My nibs are too scratchy to use with cold pressed or rough paper.
I think so too. Being left handed I have a lot of trouble with the dip pen on cold press.

love the filled up palette :D and i think i prefer without foliage as well. with foliage looks good too but i like your wintery scenes more :)
I'm a fan of winter scenes too. I'm sure I'll be painting lots more of them in the future.

I think you're right ☺️
thank you for the nice painting! Btw love bahong paper. Not easy/cheap here in Europe.

the colour composition is quite nice
Thank you 🙏
I really liked this one, I like the way you get on with it, no nonsense, the picture itself is simple but very effective, thank you, more please!
Wonderful painting, Jay! The foilage looks great. Thanks for sharing this. Cheers!
You're welcome John. Thank you 🙏
Interesante las líneas en tinta
le dan estructura a la pintura.

I really enjoy the way you narrate through the painting process giving the color choices etc. I like the foliage! Thanks for sharing your painting.
Thank you for watching and commenting 🙏
I like the white highlights! And I like the foliage, but maybe it needed another layer?
You're right about that but I didn't want to ruin it any more 🤣
I like the foliage actually, it’s a beautiful painting
Thank you 😊
