I love how you give measurements.... very helpful for learners, like me, who are not yet particularly good at drawing.

[@cpetri766]

Your very welcome, much more content on the way👍😎🍀

Chris...My primary reason for attending college was to learn anything I could about painting with watercolor . I did get an Associate Degree in Commercial Art but l learned very little about watercolor. (Funding for a Fine Art Degree was not available.) I told my wife the other day that I learned more about watercolors in one of your videos then my two years in school. Your a very good teacher. Thank you for sharing your time and skill. Also, thank you for giving the dimensions of your paintings up front. I needed an instructor to help loosen up my work...with your help I'm getting there. Again thank you..TD

After he slapped down that first layer of paint for the sky it already looked better than any finished watercolour painting I’ve ever done 😅 I’m going to try out this tutorial, thank you 😊
