I could not do that in 10 days, let alone 10 minutes! Oh my, how beautiful the painting is. I love your style of explaining as you go, and appreciate your incredible talent so very much. Thank you for sharing your wealth of knowledge!!!

These are perfect for beginners. The general principles come to life under your brush.

The fact your we’re able to build up that amount of depth in the time is amazing. It helped seeing some of these shortcuts you use: working smarter not harder. I’m sure it pays to be speedy when you paint open air. The contrast is really cool and it really captures why people love fall foliage so much.

These 10 minute paintings of yours are beautiful. I love how you describe every
step you do and why you do the steps the way you do. Also love the simple palette that you use. Thank you so much for these. I must try one tonite.

Hi!
You 10 minute paintings are wonderful tutorials, & the use of BASICS primaries is perfect for anyone learning to paint. The 10 minutes is a perfect amount of time to watch & do, especially for newbies & even young kids!
These are likely going to take more like an hour for those learning, yet that's what the pause button is for?
I love seeing the techniques & the explanations of them. These help us learn from each other, communicate & teach others too!
These are absolutely wonderful for 10 minute paintings, and are encouraging for anyone new to acrylic painting!
I love those "Magic Moments" when acrylics come together, and the look on those new, especially kids, when they do it themselves & it pops! (I love it when it works out for me too! )
Thanks! These are great!!!

Hi Ryan, thanks for your 10min Acrylic Paintings... I found them easy to learn, especially for beginners like me who's so afraid to try and fail. Thanks for the lessons, I've already painted two of your tutorials and I'm so inspired to learn more and paint more.. Keep it up!

This painting is awesome Ryan . I have just fallen in love with your paintings. You are the best teacher I ever had the way you teach us about various colours and contrasts it really helps. And in this painting the yellow is so vibrant . And you know Ryan I will try painting this today. Hope it comes out well. And if it does I really want to show it you. You can tell me my flaws. Keep making more videos . Love them all.

[mathoue]

Thank you, I'm a beginner and just seeing how you paint helped me a lot!

[Dennissiple]

Well done! The smaller format speeds things up and uses less paint as well. Excellent piece for such a small amount of time. Thanks!

[Starlamarie]

You've really inspired me to paint again, your videos are sooo helpful

[debeern]

I painted a fall it really came out good. Yet I know it's not finished and I haven't touched it for a several weeks. I find that working with yellows takes so many layers but what you said about letting it dry helps. Thank you!
