Love this painting demo! Please keep painting for us, Poppy.

Beautiful. Thank You very much

I enjoyed watching you paint the sailboats and water. I live in Connecticut near the Sound and Connecticut river. This was very helpful when I start back painting outside in various places here. Thank you

So beautiful and indicative of the east coast!

Thank you so much! I think the skies look different here on the coast than they do in the prairies.

You make it look easy Poppy. Nice work.

Very nice painting, and equally nice instructions. I find your work original and inspiring. I read the article by Rbt. Carsten about your work recently in "Watercolor Artist" (summer 2022 edition). The magazine cover shot was spectacular. You certainly seem to have a relationship with water and the sea. Thanks for the tutorial.

Thank you for sharing your talent and skill. Really enjoyed it and it helped me in my own endeavours.

Hi! Thanks for enjoying the video, and for telling me so. Glad you enjoyed the painting part, that is what I wanted to highlight in this video.

Very helpful! Love seeing the boats in motion!

Thank you Poppy for this wonderfully explained video! I learned so much especially using clear water under the blue to dilute the clouds. I belong to the Toronto Watercolour Society.

So good,tnx poppy

That sky was beautiful. Made me realize you don't need to paint top down with the sky tackling half at time is brilliant

Hi Marjorie, thanks for watching and your comment. Good luck painting outside!

Beautiful painting with such simplicity.

Wonderful...Very British way of handling watercolor. Reminded me of Edward Seago.

Missed you at Forgotten Coast this year - nice to be able to watch your process in your video. Your work is evocative of Homer and Sargent.

This was wonderful! So helpful.

J m Art With Detail hi! Thank you so much!

Thank you for sharing your Plein air painting experience Poppy. I also live by the water and love to sit on the beach and sketch the ever-moving water. What kind of paper do you prefer for Plein air? This one looks like 300lbs? Just found your website. I am impressed with your body of work. Congratulations!

Hi Marie Thanks for your message. I use 140 lb paper most of the time, rough texture. I have found no advantage when I used the 300 lb.

@@poppybalserart Thank you! I saw your video about travel sketching. I am making my sketchbook with Fabriano Artistico 140lbs. Looking forward to documenting my adventures in watercolor! Originally from Canada, I now live on the island of Cozumel. Blue waters and palm trees are my backdrops!

Poppy, your painting is so mesmerising! So many vibrant color transitions in just one layer, amazing. Could you tell me which paper you are using? 😊

Lovely, fresh painting. I notice you don't stretch your paper. What weight is it, and do you always use the same weight? Thank you.

Hi, Val NLN Thank you! I use either 140lb or 300 lb. this one was on 140 lb. I paint on it unstretched, and then flatten it after the fact if it needs it.
