    Love your talking and teaching. Love painting alongside you, not always the same thing. However love your talk about trees today, took me ages to realize trees aren't topiary. You can have a hug. Love ya!

    Good Day, Always a pleasure to begin the day with Mr Alan Owens. You have helped me greatly, Thank you so much for all of your teaching. I am a beginner.... working towards 'modified early advanced' status. It is a pleasure to paint, and so much more pleasurable to see my little drawings gain depth and clarification thru application of your instruction and insights.
    YOU are a treasure and a wonderful resource. Thank you x 100.

    Mr Owens instruction & teachings in 2017 remain as powerful and profound in 2020 and suspect, time forever. How fortunate we are in a time where recordings of both voice and visuals are available. I often imagine Artists like Rembrandt and those before electronics existed. To find oneself receiving instruction then from Artists of their caliber was a rare one indeed. The circles were small and the sacrifices were great. My own Skills have advanced markedly since my discovery of CZcams Tutorials and even CZcams has evolved in the past 15 years since I came across it. Its truly an incredible vehicle for learning, well, just about anything ones Mind is curious about.

    Trying to catch up with the other patrons..... this has helped me to understand the brush strokes that you make look so easy. My skies have been getting better, then I add trees which have been turning into dull blobs. I’m off to practice this!

    Thank you Alan, you are a wonderful Teacher. I am learning so much from you. 'Be risky' is my new mantra. My Son and I, love doing your tutorials, we laugh as we learn from you because you make it fun and rewarding. I live in Australia and you techniques have helped me paint our gumtrees and bush. We are so lucky to have your guidance and truly appreciate your kind spirit. Liz

    This is awesome! I have been trying to loosen up (not clenching my jaw when I paint...lol)...this is just what I needed. I loved that you explained everything as you were painting. I understand so much more after watching this...and I'll be watching it several times! Lots of great tips. Could you please tell me what brush or brushes you are using? Thank you so much for sharing this fantastic video. Would love to see more like this.....

    Very good tutorial Alan! I can't call myself a beginner anymore but there's ALWAYS some little thing more to learn. I, like many, am always searching for natural looking greens. I noticed you added burnt umber to warm up the usual mixture of yellow and ultramarine ( lemon yellow seems to give me a very cold green).
    A short tutorial on your favourite mixes for greens would be useful. Thank you again Alan.

    • @barbaragemin5117
      @barbaragemin5117 Před 6 lety

      I've just noticed you've already been asked about greens and done a tutorial. You must have read my mind!!

    dear alan , what is the brand of your brushes , i am trying to get the effect it do with my own but it become different
    thanks

    • @AlanOwen
      @AlanOwen  Před 8 lety

      I like to use a size eight sable brush with a nice point .I have no particular make .just hold your brush very lightly and on it,s side when painting your trees,,, also with washes as well, don't press down to heavily let your brush do the work

    • @AlanOwen
      @AlanOwen  Před 7 lety

      just ordinary sable brushes yet the half nylon are fine ,keep your brush on its side and drag it down
