Hi Jane. Although this video is 5 years old, it is one of my go to’s. Your teaching is both soothing and encouragement to my artistic soul. Thank you and God bless you precious Jane💕
Thank for taking the time to explain how to paint this. Especially for the beginners. Beautiful painting!
Your rant about realism spoke to me. Thank you.
Thank you for this wonderful video! I’ve been painting a cherry blossom branches mural in my nursery for my baby girl and your tips and watching you paint is exactly what I needed to help me with getting the petals to have a better, artsy look! It really came to life because of you and everyone I’ve shown it to has been so impressed.
I don't know if you know who Bob Ross is( I used to watch him all the time, yes I am that old lol ) but I find your voice as soothing as his, I have yet to paint anything but I love watching vids like this

Thank you so much ♥♥ I grew up watching Bob on TV. Thank you for your sweet comment ♥
Some can paint, some can teach, this girl does both, an amazing artist and an inspiring teacher...
Just done this on my bathroom wall and painted a window frame on it. Looks fabulous! Thankyou for being a voice of calm
Love it! Thank you so much for zooming in on the detail work to really show how you are achieving your brush strokes.
Thanks you Jan. Your cherry blossoms are the best instructions to me.that’s awesome
Thanks Jane!! This is gorgeous!! Hi Craig!!🤗

how did it go
Love your rants that ring true. Thank you for your tutorials. Fantastic.
Good explanation of the painting process as you go along in the painting. Very nice simple composition to follow along for the audience. Thanks for sharing Jane!
I had my zen moment just watching. You’re voice is so soothing. I am going to attempt to paint this. I had a request for a “zen painting” and well, here’s what I got and it’s awesome
Loved the rant! This painting speaks to me! Thank tou Jane 🙋🏼♀️
I love the painting Jane! That being said, I love to paint realism so please don’t discount it. I’m not the best at it, but my goal is always to enjoy what I do and hopefully share some of what I feel when walking through a forest or watching a sunset. I also love Impressionism, when you or someone else paints it, just don’t enjoy painting it myself. Thanks for all you share with us😊

I totally get that, Diane!! Please don't misunderstand. I don't mean to say there's no value in realism! I'm just saying that it's not what everyone is trying to accomplish. I guess I should have said that realism isn't the ONLY goal in art. You go for it and rock that realism!!! ♥

Painting with Jane thanks Jane, no worries, that’s what I love about art, you get to see all the differences and enjoy them❤️
Thank you! I love how you explained what art is. Thank you!
Jane, I just started painting, and you teach soooo well! I painted this and I’m so proud of it. Thank you so much.
You really are a great teacher, Jane. Thank for the dedication and the effort you put into these videos. This is my first canvas painting, and it came out not half bad because of you 😄
There is no such thing as perfection, only the striving to achieve it. Even nature is perfect often. You are right. Paint what you feel. I love quin. Colours bright a clean.
I agree, paint what you feel, then it’s relaxing and doesn’t string you trying to get realism. Painting should be a calming experience. Let realism come naturally not forced along with your natural progression of technique. Slow down enjoy painting look forward to every new project.
Danke für dein schönes Bild ich werde es auch mal ausprobieren Ich hoffe ich bekomme es auch so gut hin. Grüße aus Deutschland 🇩🇪 und frohe Weihnachten
Wow...amazing. this is the best cherry blossom painting I've ever seen...
Jane, I love how this painting turned out! Always enjoy your paintings
Just plain. WOW!
love this! so relaxing to watch
Thank you so much for this tutorial!! I have a huge painting I’ve started, disliked, stowed in the closet, pulled out to try again, painted over it, didn’t like it again, rinse and repeat. After doing this several times over the years, I am finally feeling great about how the painting is coming together on its newest iteration! That is very much so in thanks to your great video. You took the intimidation out of it and explained things so well! I am in love with how my branches turned out! Thank you so much!!
Simple yet elegant!

Absolutely beautiful!
Love it, sooo, colourful
Remember plants and trees grow always seeking the best angles to reach the sun. The plant isn’t striving for a perfect shape, just the best position to reach more light then its neighbour. Decide where the light is coming from in your painting might help.
Very beautiful you make this all look easy
Beautiful. Thank you Jane. I love the fact that I will only need 3 colors because I have a very small painting Budget .
Jane, I did this one today and once I showed my brother who lives in another state, he said he wanted it! It’s only my third painting, and although I stink at flowers, it’s still pretty. Thank you so much for your amazing instruction; it’s invaluable!!
❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️!!!!!! You rescue me from PTSD. Adore you.

Painting with Jane I’ve looked at a few of yours. I like the tornado one especially. They say it’s a great painter that can create a black and white painting. You truly are great at what you do and the way you teach ❤️❤️❤️💯👌💖🌹🌹🌹
Lovely!
Not rants at all we’re all at different stages of our art journey! Love the tutorial! Exactly what I was wanting! My son teaches yoga in Atlanta and asked me to paint him some paintings! I did your zen rocks, the Buddha, the purple tree on the cliff, ( I think it’s very zen ) and will probably paint this one next! Thank you!

This is beautiful. I painted your roses tutorial and everyone told me I did it wrong to them it didn't look like roses. But I could see them . Thank you for saying in your rant that its a painting not reality
Thank you, I know how to add the apple branch to my garden now.
Clive 5 make a white undercoat great for wet-on-wet. Golden do a flow white with same effect. They are smashing for wet-on-wet like this beautiful painting. I use Payne’s Grey rather than black all the time. Black just smothers anything you mix.
Love this cherry blossom painting. You are a great teacher. I'm new to your site this week
Wow! Your painting is so gorgeous. You’re so talented. Can listen to you for hours.
