I just think you are super super lovely. If I’m having a bad day (which I do, a lot) I put on one of your videos, and ahhhhhhh, so much better. Thank you, I know these videos must take a lot of time and effort, but I just want to say how grateful I am for them.

I would love to see how Nicolas will manage to finish this composition? It's so pleasant to see him painting...

May we have more of these start to finish long demos...even if in stages. So helpful in our process. Please and Thankyou.

Nice!

Fabulous. Thanks for sharing your amazing process. Eileen.

loved the process and the relative silence. lovely to watch and learn.

Love love love this! Thanks Nick!

It is like a big sketchbook !!!

An absolute privilege this is to see. Can we please follow you as you go?

Learn so much with these videos. Thank you!

Thank. you. When you said : One doesn't need to have an agenda just to get something going, this is a click for me. This is the first time I am viewing you as I just learned of you from another youtuber. Thank you for sharing your process. I feel so much more lighthearted in knowing it's not all about figuring it out ahead of time; which actually is what I have perceived as a block to my work, a judgement of, why don't. you know where you are going? Artists keep journals! Do series! Artists are pragmatic and know where they are going! Studying art can become so technical for me, overwhelming as in: where is the fun? Thank you for your chill teaching.

Love it. Your pallet is beautiful! Can’t wait to see you cover it up with something even better;)

Thanks Nicholas; great to see it transform through this first stage.

I am very excited about this approach

Yes, when you talk through the process and we can watch it in real time- it makes it real.

Wonderful to observe your technique.

Loved watching this!! Thank you for sharing!!

Wonderful Nicholas , I’m going to have a go , at painting like this no plan, no fear, just have fun! Thank you!

Thanks. This was very helpful. You were so relaxed as you worked. I could see how you applied some of the principles to create transition right. The less saturated colors were also interesting as well as different shapes and sizes. But, I find that the discipline of timed work periods the most helpful. I look forward to seeing this painting develop. Thanks for this video.

Thank you Nick. Loved watching the development and when you painted on the light, warm background colour ………….what a difference! The picture came alive. So grateful for this lesson.

Love your first layer…. Very “happy” start!

So great to see your startup process and a beginning to understand how the layers and drips and rotation fold into the early stages. Thanks!!

So, So helpful...my thanks

I enjoy your videos because it feels like I am painting. I also love your interviews. It is getting acquainted with the art world.

Love to see you work. It’s such a joy!! So thank you for posting this Nick. I would love to see what the next stage is with the development of these paintings. Any chance you can do this for us? Thank you 🙏

I discovered you after doing an online workshop with the brilliant Louise Fletcher who told the group how much she had learned from you. You are so generous sharing your knowledge and expertise Nick. You’re inspirational. I love watching you at work and have learned so much from hearing about your journey.

incredible.... it is just so well done. Thank you for letting us into your world as an artist. It is very inspirational.

Great​ insparation​, love​ it, thank​ you​ so​much​ dear..

So interesting! Thank you

The best. Thank you Nick. Very helpful.😊❤️

Thanks for this. I watched your second video first. This one answered my questions regarding layering and drying. Liquin!! This is so very helpful. You are a wonderful human being, Nicholas Wilton...you deserve all the success you have now. Thanks for sharing your art, techniques and principles with artists around the world. I'm a first time CVP2022 and am so happy I clicked on your free workshop post. I have a BFA but am learning more from you and the coaches than I ever did from my instructors.

Fan to see U working I like the composition and colors

Beautiful 🥰👍

Yes, it is so memorising to see you working Nick. Everything else stops when I watch one of your videos. I would love to see how you would proceed from there. Please let us know if possible. Thank you

Love your generous videos.

Thank you Nicholas. So very good to watch you paint for more time . Also, enjoyed the comments you made while painting. I don't come close to having much experience or painting geometric shapes as you do. Nonetheless, still so helpful and enjoyable to watch and here. One day maybe, it would be so good to take your CVP workshops. Much thanks, again.

Love it!

so inspiring , so generous, to play with colour in such a random way is exciting for me. thank you

Looking soooo good. Wonderful colors and love the long dyptic.

Nick, that was so much fun! This is the kind of thing I am aiming for in my art. thx

This is so awesome ❤️❤️❤️

Love watching you work! So inspiring!

This was awesome to watch. Love it!!

Thankyou. I really enjoy playing with abandon using dud collage papers I don't necessarily like for my first layers. This video really spoke 2 me and reaffirmed it's value. And Ps your manner is soothing

Fantastic. Great to see how you work from the start. Many thanks x 👍😊

Thank you to share your work with us . Very helpful.

Love love your style.....Fabulous work

Thanks much for sharing! Beautiful composition!

Love watching you! Thank you for sharing with us!!

That was great. Thanks

I like the idea of using colours you dont really like or you'd like to use up. It would make it easier to paint over for people that fear layering.

Gorgeous man and Artist, blessings from Germany 🇩🇪 !

As one who is just starting out and stumbling along it would be great to see how you pull this through to completion. So helpful though. The sense of letting go and playing is clear!

Yaaay

Interesting...

I'd like to see the finished painting- will you do another you tube as you are finishing it up?

Great work! I am also creating abstract work and I enjoy it! just subscribed you!

❤❤❤

I’m interested in the thinking about using oils for the under painting rather than acrylic. Not trying to second guess you; curious for my own possible future ideas. LOOOOVVE your videos!! Thank you so much.

😍😍😍

This video is really helpful. Wsh there was part 2 to see it to completion.

It was like a first grader playingthen you added shade of off white and I thought why did he not do first. Then when you used trowl and intwined things and made them all one. It took on a life of its own. It was btilliant. Where do you buy the large amount of paint. Oh my, such freedom, yet such a strong and wonderfull system.

I’m so interested that you put on the background AFTER laying out the shapes. If you do it so that the background color doesn’t affect the pure color of the shapes it makes sense to me. As I recall, the impressionists painted on white rather than a pained background for that reason.😅

Nick thank you so much. How long does this layer usually take to dry?

Great video - pity about the background noise in some sections🤪…./but it is a working studio after alll! Marvellous beginnings …..love love your channel! Thanks for sharing!

I'm going to try this. I think it will help me be less trepidatious when I paint. Besides, it looks fun! Thank you! Ps. I hope you show the completed painting.

Love your videos - are you painting on board or canvas attached to board? I tried painting on the heavy canvas you suggest but fine it so dry - any work around ?

Thank you!! What are your thoughts on using household oil paint? I go through so much white and thought of getting some cans.

Nick, is your oil paint thinner because you mixed it with the drill mixing bit and in large volume? I love the viscosity 🌻

Is it terrible that I love it just the way it is?

How do you make your oil paint soooo juicy and full of liquid? liquin

are you painting water based paint or acrylics over the oil pastels?

What did you put over the blue oil pastel? Was acrylics? Won't that peel, if it was? Fascinating video!!!!

Do these sticks work with Acrylics? Thanks for this, Nick! Fun! 💖

@pastelsgirl

It is recommended not to mix acrylics with oil paints. What you could do is working your background (or the first later, or layers) in acrylics, let them dry, and then come in and work with oils (sticks, paints, whatever) on top of acrylics. Never the other way around, due to the very different chemical properties of both acrylics and oils respectively. Think “oil and water don’t mix together”. I hope this helps. Good luck!

Where are u getting large amounts of paint with strong tints? Powdered paint colours into basic oil paint?

Can u paint w acrylic over oil pastels? Thanks

You said you covered boards (are they boards or canvases?) with white paint. Was that oil paint? how do you treat the boards that will be covered with oil paint? (I only have experience with acrylics right now).

What is the liquid that u use to seal the pastels

2 questions: How come your oil paint is so liquid? You take à tube of oil paint plus cold wax plus ???liquine? You smooth a lot..is it for the effect of mixing the colors or there is a technical reason like drying faster ? Thanks very much for sharing your knowledge!!!!

What is the "liquid" you are painting over the oil pastels?

How much do the colors you have already put down influence the background color?

How quickly does liquin dry the pastel?

What was in the liquid? Over the oil pastels and acrylic..

I would like to order the 2 trowels. Please send me info. Thankyou!
