5 years ago i started watercolor painting and the first channel i subcribe was yours …. I learn so much I used to paint almost every day and I got better and better each time. Unfortunately I gone through a bad depression and I stop drawing and paint and do all those things that I love but i’m here again trying to learn what I used to know already but for some reason, I forgot everything I learned and one more time I’m on your channel again thank you so much for making my days better
Stay with girl. I fight depression as well. Painting makes it go away.
What I appreciate is your constant emphasis on having fun …. Most of us will not be in the gallery, but all of us can enjoy painting
I saw a quote from Andy Warhol that goes like this: just paint, leave it to others to decide if it’s any good, and while they are making up their minds, paint some more
LOL no matter how often you tell us that you don't plan this......I know for a fact that after your first laying in of color you "wiggle" your nose and create a masterpiece.........I had to look at this one again.......and will most likely watch this "magic" again....thank you so much!
Marvelous. Challenging.
Your channel is the only one I keep comming back to. I started watercolor painting about a year ago. After a while I got frustrated and stopped. I felt like I couldnt improve and I had no ideas either. I didnt know the technics you need to get the hang of it and I also was very impatient. I found your channel amongst many others and I had this WOW experience about spontanious painting. I took out my brushes and started. You made me paint almost every day now, even late at night after a long and hard day of work, just by the inspiration you give me. My pictures dont look like yours of course but I am pleased with the learning results. I get to know the pigments and what they do, depending on how I use them. I want to say thank you for sharing your knowledge and your exerience and letting me learn.... Dankeschön from Germany!!!
Thank you so very much
This is a wonderful demonstration of a process that’s rather mysterious. It’s like opening a box with no idea what’s in it. Thank you. Your style is fascinating.
I know! I look at Steve's process and think, "How did he see that?" Then How did he even DO that?
An abstract spontanious work... adds doimension to some of my efforts - TNX!
I am in awe! I can watch you for hours Steve. Thank you so much!
Will I ever tire of seeing your spontaneous paintings? NEVER!
Damn, that is amazing !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Thank you steve
Wow, I really enjoyed this video. Thank you for showing how you do this, as it was a true joy. I can't wait to try it. Paula
No matter how many times I've watched you do this, it's still remarkable to me how beautiful the works come out. I've tried it a couple of times, and blew it totally. You said something in this one that struck me. I don't think I'm looking at them long enough, or been as patient as I need to be. Also, I really appreciated it when you in one of your posts "Embrace your failures," I found that hugely useful. Thanks a lot Steve.
Yes, I really like this after two… I think I overworked the second and my sketcbook paper doesn’tmake the thready runs. But I like looking at the second one and coming back to it, kind of doodling patiently. But yes, learning and experimenting.
Spectacular
I watched a couple videos…. Thought hmmm I think I can…. My first try was less than I hoped, my paper is very warped from water… but I will try again. You are a great teacher! Thank you for the tutorials.
I love the teal leaning tree with the suggestion of straight trees in the background. My eyes can’t leave that point. I need to remember that not all trees grow straight. Thank you.
My favorite in fact the only kind of water color I have I test in. I watch your channel and enjoy it because it’s a medium I know nothing about.
I just ran across this video. I’ve been dry for months and the longer I don’t pick up a brush, the heavier it gets. You have inspired me today. I’m going to pick up my 20lb brush and go.
Looks like a wood out of a fairytale. ☺️
so nice. i took a wet on wet workshop it was a total disaster the instructor had us wet the paper, spray it and drop paint all over, it was so horrible, your style is so much better it makes me see what is occuring and why, but still so magical!
Aww! "Visual library"
I was looking for something similar for so long, in my mind, to phrase it.
I don't like to google up images to have a reference (until it is neccessary for details, colours (animals for example)).
A visual library. Thank you!
Love those colors! The mystical foliage with the realistic rocks makes a well grounded magical painting!
This is so inspiring that I got up and got my paper masked. A lightbulb went off in my head when you mentioned putting in the details and looking at areas of contrast to help guide the finishing process. The powers of observation is key. Can't wait to get my painting started.
I love this . Thank you so much for sharing this technique
WOW that turned out beautiful!.
Georgeous!
Wow, beautiful Steve!
When you rubbed the masking fluid off, all I could see was a bank of funghi - then you turned it into a lovely magical forest. 😍
Spectacular!! I’m finally getting a chance to catch up on your older posts. Huge fan of spontaneous painting!!
Whilst I enjoy your videos and know you are a generous artist and tutor, I found that (as a beginner) I am nervous about this type of painting. Although I am fairly new to water coloring of any kind, I thought that, at least, the first part of this painting could be managed. But then you continued with such a fine brush I knew I wouldn't be able to paint like that. I wonder if you have any videos where you start like this, but then do more loose follow-up with fewer tiny brushes and fine detail - at least to start. Your painting is beautiful, and I am under no illusions that I can complete a painting anything like this one, but I would like to try, and not be discouraged from the start. Thank you
I love it every time spontaneous watercolour spontaneously returns!
😮😮😮 Speechless
I am not sure why I insist on this, but I want to do this spontaneous painting! I was going to take a break then I was recommended this video and of course I had to watch! Thanks for continuing to create amazing videos and simply being an awesome painter!
Please take care and have yourself a lovely day!
Thanks Steve. It's a pleasure to support your work. I love seeing how you defined the rocks and trees and mist... really lovely and rewarding. Fun to enjoy your delight in the discovery with you...
I hit the like button before you pulled a brush out!!
🤯 Oh my goodness….. that was amazing….kudos to you!!!!!!
Thanks!
thanks so much!
Magical!
A new favorite!!
More spontaneous paintings please. You inspire me and encourage me to think outside the box. ❤
Hi, on holiday and so took watercolour and ink pens when I normally use acrylic. This is such helpful honest information and guidance. Seeing and creating isn’t a quick experience and you have helped.
I came here to find your video on doing Backgrounds w/ w.c. pencils and WOW! I got hypnotized by this video. Thanks Steve for proving we should never give up on possible magic. I thought you were finished at 14:00 when it looked gorgeous, but then you went on to define the rocks and trees that I didn't see and the magic started. It was wonderful & inspirational to watch. Again, thank you Steve for sharing your gift.
Love, love, love this!
I love this video❤
Thank you for doing this!!!!
I always learn so much when I watch your watercolor tutorials.
Lovely .
wow that was magical thank you
Love your channel. Watched this video last night and painted one. Not bad but I need to use your colors.
What a beauty, this painting is a true happiness to watch... A real enchanted forest! Once upon a time in Steve's world...
I just found your channel. Your painting is brilliant and beautiful. Thanks so much for sharing.
Wow, I am definitely pretty pleased with what you did too! I could see almost exactly what you painted with the details when you were talking about how your process of looking at the results of the the paint doing most of the work. I really love how your spontaneous painting turns out to what I think are stunning landscapes. This was tons of fun to watch. I have yet to try to do spontaneous painting but this has really made me want to try it. Thanks for sharing this with us and hope you’re enjoying a great weekend!
This just blew my "mind of watercolor"......I haven't been able to paint for the last several years because of my eyesight.....with my new eyes now and glasses coming ,I look forward to getting down to the to the nib of a new era in my painting journey......thanks to you ,you have shown me the way to a loose and beautiful way of painting.....Bless you and your shared talent!
Wow. You are so gifted, and so generous to share your gift with us. I was truly blessed watching you, and seeing this beautiful landscape emerge from what first appeared to be chaos.
WOW 😍
I can't help it, I keep seeing forests and reflections below into water. It's all good! I'm so happy I found these videos on this spontaneous wc. I tried it last night and was blown away by what happened on the paper.
Magic!!
Your spontaneous paintings are my favorite videos to watch on CZcams. I get so excited when I see the same things as you do and I’m always impressed with your eye to see when to stop. Thank you for the gift you share.
Thank you Steve! I’m experimenting with these more and more. I love the process. It gets better as one does them more. One other thing I’d suggest is working on them small to start with, for example doing bookmarks. Working small helps me to focus better on the details. Spontaneous painting is truly magical. One of many things I absolutely love about watercolor. It’s the most rewarding medium ever. Blessings to you and everyone!
This was an awesome tutorial! Thankyou so much. This answered lots of questions for me. Could you please do more of these, especially with the last part of your vid.
YAY!!!
OMG....what an inspiration
Love the colours definitely complimentary, thanks for sharing.😍👏👏
J'adore ce procédé de création ! Et votre bonne humeur😃 vous me donnez l'envie d'essayer ! Merci beaucoup pour votre gentillesse.
Absolument magnifique merci pour ce super partage bravo!
I was thinking undersea coral. What a superb harmony!! 🥰🥰🥰
Masterful! You take watercolour to another level… 🙏🎨🙏
That’s amazing. Thank you for sharing.
Really beautiful.
It reminds me of underwater coral reef from when I used to scuba dive in the Caribbean. Thanks Mr. Steve.
This is, hands down, one of the best videos of yours, and even others, that I have watched! Absolutely magical and so inspiring! Thank you so much for this!🥰
WOW AMAZING
Take you Steve for a wonderful break from setting up a new pad. Really like the combination.
Wow! Love it!!!
Just can’t say enough about how much I love this! Going to try that myself because I love seeing what watercolor does and how it just paints itself! Text a Master to see what’s there! Like Michelangelo, it’s in the stone, he just extracts the image!
At the end of the 2nd layer, I was seeing a vase of flowers.
Waouh so magical ! Thanks from France .
LOVE how this turned out!
Hey thanks Emily!
Just love this ❤️👍🇨🇦
Magical!❤
Videos take so much time to produce, so thank you for your generosity in making them. I have often looked at watercolours and wondered how on earth artists manage to get such incredible results. This video helps to de-mystify it while also showing some incredible observational and technical skills for us to learn from. Thank you so much! I really enjoyed it. Made me feel like I was looking at a story book!
Thank you so much!
Totally amazing!
I love this technique. Thanks for sharing.
Wow it’s like magic watching the landscape emerge from the wash! I’m excited to try this myself!
It definitely *should* be named turquoise! Lovely color combination in this one.
I like this demonstration, I am going to try to do this. Thankyou
You’re amazing and so,inspirational ❤
Wonderful
❤ beautiful
Beautiful...
This is so calming to watch. I love your music selection!
Color me surprised! Both with the color choices working so well and basically painting a old falling down stone wall using masking fluid. Absolutely beautiful and as always I go away having learned many new techniques.
Beautiful
Love the colors! This worked out so beautifully- I do get excited when you post a spontaneous painting video, it truly is magic to watch. That little stand of shrubs to the left to balance the composition-amazing. I understand completely you know your subject matter well, but like I said- Magic! Thanks Steve!
This was fabulous Steve. Thanks so much for demonstrating its simplicity! You take a lot of pressure off with your laid-back attitude. But I know your 30+ yrs of experience helps too. 😊❤
It's fun seeing the scene appear from how the paint interacts. Thank you for sharing another of these!
Don't know how I missed this one. Great work!! Lovely colors.
ThNk you - love the process
Gorgeous
Your "creeping" is amazing! lol. The outcome is awesome!!! I think I'll try.
Thanks. Request.....how about doing a session or two on painting a large piece (1/2 sheet or bigger???)?
At some point I may try that. It's a challenge for my video recording set up though.
