Take your time, follow some of the other videios and then have a go at some simple landscapes. As you will see I have plenty on my channel. Good luck with your painting. cheers .

  Hello from Kentucky USA, I have been doing some line and wash studies of the sheep on the little farm across the road. Watercolor is not my strong hold but is so beneficial for studies. You do a wonderful job of teaching. Thanks for sharing. Love your accent. I am not brave enough to do videos, I use Facebook and Instagram to post and sale. I teach group classes occasionally. Are sheep are for meat so they are bred to not grow a long coat.

  Thank you for this lesson. I’m a seventy year old complete beginner, and watching you doing it helped a great deal, particularly with bushes. Mine usually end up as dark blobs, but I’m quite pleased with my attempt! Getting used to manipulating the brushes accurately is the thing I find hardest, and maybe I use the wrong brush sometimes. Your explanations are excellent!
