Fantastic tips, Samuel! I love your teaching style and techniques!!!

[bentorres]

You’re such a great instructor. Everything about your explanation just makes it easy to understand

[elleeo]

Excellent tips, Samuel! I'm excited to hear you talk about the downside of painting on a toned canvas. I always felt like I must be the only one who felt that way. While it works for many artists, it always gave me problems. Thanks for all you do. I love your work!

👋Hi Sam, as always I really appreciate your tips and explanations. Yes, they are very helpful, and I will especially avoid painting on toned canvas or MDF in the future. Thank you so much, have a great weekend💖

[andyorfi]

Hi Sam Just discovered you 😃 I’m learning landscapes . Love your tips on color mixing and how you’re never stingy about giving away your trade secretes 👍👌

[Kelton-mikv]

painting on a white surface makes sense to me - I have experienced the same challenges - getting confused with contrast and values not blending together - thanks for sharing

[Mailelr]

Thanks Sam. Brilliant and to the point

[pchabanowich]

Your method is sound and I can feel its efficacy. Being a novice, setting up a studio space in this bachelor apartment and getting some good materials in it, I am embarking on a thrill-ride with brush in hand. Thank you for your generous instruction. Bravo to you, I wish you good health and a long lustrous career.💐

Very much appreciated, very informative, useful & wise. I'll tell you a struggle I have and probably others have as well. Translating values into appropriate colours, or finding the proper values in the colours you apply over a grisaille for instance. Because I can certainly draw, trying various lighting schemes, i end up with some really nice drawings, but when I go to colour that's when the whole thing falls apart 😯. So I've been practicing pushing my values darker and lighter and this has helped a bit. But since I don't know of any painter/instructor who addresses this issue, perhaps you might be interested in tackling it from the point of view of learning the values of colours. For instance yellow is very limited, but blue can go the whole gamut. At any rate, thanks for reading if you made it so far. And thanks for all your great videos 😀🇨🇦🛶

Soooo helpful, thank you! I’ve just started painting (I’m using gouache), and my next painting will be from dark to light values, I’m interested in that approach

[kevsartplus]

Thanks Sam. I usually tone my canvas. Will try leaving it white in my next painting. You use greens to perfection. I will try to limit my pallette too..

[sujanithtottempudi]

I want to try your idea if painting on white canvas and starting with darks first not skies .thank you

[MargaretCraft-zg]

I paint in watercolor .can i paint in reverse from light to dark?

[richardyeo]

No one ever covers what if you can’t draw or
