Thank you for this video. I did a painting with another tutorial and completely messed up the water. I covered over my bad water with light blue and used this tutorial, I'm happy with the outcome of my painting now. I have a problem though going from the bottom up (bigger to smaller) and am going to try again going from the top down. I also found it easier for me to make the smaller, lighter lines with minimal paint on tip of my fan brush. I seem to have a heavy hand. Keep up the good work.

Your videos are superb, so easy to follow and the instructions are clear, concise with just enough information with no overload. Well done, the same classes would cost a fortune at an art school. Many thanks .

Thank you so much for this video. I was really really looking for tutoring for making water more realistic. Moreover I thought that water is always done in oils. I am going to try this soon. Thank you so much again

Thank you so much. exactly what I needed to do a painting from some great pics I took. The blue in my pics is greenish, so I will experiment, but with your technique. Bless you.

Awesome! Thank you! Just what i needed to solve a "glitch" in an "impressionistic" rendering of a beach piece 😄 i had started with the sea too dark...i love acrylics cuz i can paint over and over and over anything that is not "right", suiting me... (getting past the desire/need to be "perfect")
Thank you for your generous service of sharing your skills, talent, and tips. Makes the world a more joyous place, eh? To expand success of painters, even us beginners 😄💖💕💕🌈🏞🌊🏞🌊🌈🏝
