It’s amazing how much I focus on my own mistakes, while not even noticing the ones that others make. Interesting video.

Every art student should watch this video! This is so darn comforting to me as a student!

[awatercolourist]

One of the more beautiful and inspiring videos on YouTube.

[lilianaklass]

I loved learning about the great master’s mistakes because you showed them more human, more like us all.

Another brilliant video by a modern-day master! Soooo much research went into this video! Thank you, Jill!

[fbpliegorrivero]

Thanks goodness for all the masters, the greatest, the great and the not so much. I feel relieved and thankful. Let's keep the good intentions going on.

[jimloth]

You have no idea how much better this video has made me feel about my own paintings. I cannot possibly thank you enough!

[MaryCurson]

Beautiful film, thank you so much for giving me the chance of seeing it. I am a beginner and Dianne's quick tips (which I practice) have helped me more than any teacher or Youtube teacher. And then I get sent this wonderful film. I will not give up so easily now. Also, it will make seeing great art work more interesting.

This was so very helpful. It reminded me to be patient, stop before I REALLY lose focus, leave the painting and come back in awhile, maybe days and take a new look. I also refer to my original thumbnail or notan and find clues to a clean finish.
What fun we have figuring this out.

Every time I hear your voice explaining details, it is so soothing. It is quite meditative and your ability to teach is quite evident. Years of teaching experience is visible and we are lucky to be able to listen to you for free. Thank you so much.

Thank you for sharing. This topic is a little heavier than those before. Mistakes in Master's hands tell us that they can be like ordinaries, only not easy to approach as the ordinaries.
"Creativity is allowing yourself to make mistakes, and art is knowing which ones to keep." Wonderful quote.

I love the voice. Every time I do my arts, I love to listen her voice

[stephenfalsetto]

Who would ever think the masters overlooked their mistakes and kept painting. This is a great video and learning presentation. Thank you for sharing.

[tinavhza]

You always speak with such a calm maternal voice, wisely explaining things from a perspective of love for your subject. Thank you. I learn a lot from you.

[trace]

Your voice could calm a thunderstorm.
It also makes absorbing the message very fluid.
So glad to have found your site.

[Armafly]

Your return is appreciated. It’s a pleasure to watch your great videos generous in terms of interesting facts and beautiful images. Thanks.

[fhumble]

Very difficult and touchy subjet handled amazingly. great work.

[lisafred]

I just did a bad drawing today and now I feel better. Thank you Jill for all your fine videos. And thank you Diane Mize for referring me to this video.

[Mishellacqua]

Absolutely wonderful and powerful video, thank you so much for this, Jill! I've missed your videos! As artists we're always striving for perfection. When I look to the masters, I always assume that every inch of every piece was perfected and intentional. This will help me embrace the mistakes I make and focus on the piece as a whole, rather than perfection.
