Hello Steve, My name is Christine I just wanted to introduce myself to you and more than likely write you a short novel.😅 I want to thank you so much for sharing your spontaneous watercolor landscaping artwork with us. I absolutely love watching your videos! I love working with wet on wet or dry paper with wet, wet paint (carefully)😅 I do use Strathmore watercolor paper I would like to start using 100% cotton paper also, I would like to start using the Princeton brushes or whatever good brushes I can afford. I’m 62, I think I can re-up my game with finer paper and brushes. I know I’ll become more free and more creative. A lil info about me🙃😉At one time in my life, at a a very young age, I worked as a baker. I would work overnights at my Dad’s bakery. (A small fun fact.) My father would pick up my brothers and I at 11p.m. after an awesome concert and then go straight to work at the bakery.😎 I also was a graphic designer a screen printer and a phlebotomist. Point being, production is my middle name.😉 So, all of my work had to be fined detailed. I certainly didn’t mind that. Then I discovered abstract 😮 colors too??? The joke that goes around is “What is an abstract?”😂 whatever you want it to be. Just thinking out of the box, being creative and most of all happy. So, I was used to angles and rulers. I also said often “ I feel like I’m cheating .” But soon discovered that my abstract painting was literally detailed 😅 I can be a stickler when it comes to artwork. As some artists are. It took yrs. before I allowed myself some freedom. Watercolor isn’t easy. But I do love painting the feathers on a bird, or paint a rock or brick. I absolutely love trees.I can draw or paint trees in detail or abstracty. Seascapes, birds and so much more - not so much. I’d like to have more freedom. I know that my creativity is within. And so lots of practice is about to happen with me with the help of you and others.😊 I do use acrylics on lrg canvases with lots of water. Hahaha I never squeezed the bottom of the bristle of the brush so the paint can drop paint blobs 😉What a fun idea! I just got back into painting. I am truly looking forward in working with you☀️🎉 I told you this was going to be a short novel😅 God Bless and Thank you Steve My son’s name is Steve-okay! Enough already!😅
Never seen spontaneous painting I absolutely enjoyed your tutorial and you are an excellent teacher you also make it interesting throughout your class thank you so very much for sharing your expertise ❤️
Thanks! Can't wait to try spontaneous. New subscriber here.
Great tutorial. Thank you!
I enjoyed your video and learned a lot. Thank you, very inspiring and I'am looking forward to start and try out myself.
3/4ths through my visual journal. I’ve found it to be pretty darn good for pen and wash. Fast watercolor techniques work best. Not too much water and you will be fine. I’ll be picking up another one for sure.😊
What is the size of the sketchbook?
I really loved the outcome. It's amazing how a few marks can show a whole new light to an area. I was thinking where would I mark - I had the waterfall and a mountain behind those fir trees. Can't wait to play and see if I can get something on my paper
Thank you so much for this set of videos. It was joyful to watch. I don't think I'll ever get to your standard but going to have fun trying
Thanks for great information Steve. Can you please talk about the Strathmore pads available everywhere? They’re 300lb not paper but not cotton and much cheaper!
Good morning sir, it is really great to see how paint tell us what to do next, and the landscapes are very beautiful indeed. In this particular exercise I saw the reflections of the trees in water, whether a river or a lake...but you left the paint running on on side. That is a choice I guess. Thank you so much for the videos, very useful and relaxing like one of your landscapes
Loved it!
Watercolor painting and "spontaneous" painting has shown me how anal I really am. Lol
Nice! How’d you keep your paint from drying out? Did you just paint fast?
I use Series 400, hard cover journal, 140# Cold Press, watercolor paper for me for plein air work. Good for sketching whether or not one intends to go back with pen and ink, or water colors, or water color pencils.
Very interesting videos Steve. I will certainly use your spontaneous techniques, very inspiring. Thank you!
Early on, I was seeing a St. Bernard face. I absolutely love the trees and the contrast and the softness. Nice work, sir.
Wow! I needed to hear this. I’m going to save a share this message 😊🎉
Watercolor pencil?
Well done. Thanks.
Well done, thank you.
Great series, thank you so much!
Fantastic video! I absolutely love playing in the paintbox...and learned alot today. Thank you ❤
Was that a Conté à Paris Crayon that you showed?
Thank you for the tips on how to make my art more interesting. I will write these on a 3x5 and keep them near my easel. It was really great watching you and learning some new things.
I really enjoyed this. I love how you do the block in and develop the figure. This one was a lot of fun. Thank you.
So pretty!!
Steve where have you been? I haven’t seen you for ages. Or is it me? I haven’t watched for ages. I shouldn’t ask but didn’t you used to show oil videos or did I watch your watercolours when I first started out?
This video is perfect for me! Thank you. I want to see more pencil colored pencil and you even added pastel to your tools. I'm glad i found you.😊 . -
How fun!! I have to try this
Its better than the photograph. Who is this guy?
Do you give classes? I need some classes behind me so I’m not completely lost all the time. I’ll be so happy to buy or set up for classes now. You’re a fabulous teacher Thank you!
You are VERY talented!!! Thanks so much for sharing this. I'm definitely going to look up the rest of your videos, and give painting a try. God Bless!!❤
