I am a complete beginner who, because I am no artist, can make repeated attempts to produce a decent little painting with no pressure and no expectation. Your tutorials are a delight to watch; perhaps I'll be abler to do some of what you are doing one day, but just watching and listening to you while you work is so peaceful. Despite not having real talent to speak of, just the attempt has been great for me. Your tutorials are at once peaceful, informative and encouraging. Thank you so much for this little island of calm and sanity amidst so much discord... Kindest regards....robert
Great to hear Robert and delighted to help!
Robert, you are an artist in the making! Not fluffing your feathers, it’s truth.
Art isn’t about talent, it’s about skills learned, time invested to hone those skills (practice) & persistence to keep going. All artists go through growing pains of frustration & self doubt. Push through that, quiet the negative chatter & you will begin to see improvements, learning from trial and error, gaining confidence with each piece. How many tries does it take to learn to ride a bike well? Same principle applies to art & any new endeavor.
Hang in there & hush that naysayer in your head. Hope this encourages you!
Yes! Island of calm and sanity - and lighthearted happiness. So grateful for that too!
Wow! My sane feelings!!!!
Thank you for writing the thoughts running through my mind. When I start, dare I say, a painting, it is always with a hope and a prayer. I hear that through the process, there’s a period of uncertainty, boy do I feel uncertain but I also refuse to give up because it’s not my style. I will continue to work at getting better, some day I might even call myself an artist.♥️
Since I found your channel I have discovered a new world and I am fascinated with watercolours.
Thank you very much for sharing all your knowledge. You are very very generous. I have no words to thank you for everything you teach and encourage us. You are a true teacher, who transmits his knowledge, with good humor, and who knows how to bring out the best in a person.
Your book is very good, but your step-by-step videos are amazing. Happy to have discovered your channel and although I still don't know how to paint, I really enjoy a lot what I'm going to do thanks to you.
Greetings from Pamplona.
Hi there - what a lovely comment many thanks and happy to help!
I enjoy these sketch tutorials more than the full projects, equipping us with the tools and skills to tackle bigger projects.
Good to hear Carl!
This is what I love about watercolor: at first the paint are just blobs on a paper and then they magically transform into an image.... You are awesome Paul!
Me too - it's always exciting!
You are so very talented and personable. I think you should have your own television show. Thank you for sharing.
Wow, thank you! - that's kind of you to say!
Paul, thank you so much for your lessons! You cannot imagine how useful and inspiring they are! And it doesn't matter that we live in different countries, I consider you my teacher in watercolour.
Paul you are a fantastic teacher! Thank you ! You simplify the paintings so we can adapt it when we do our own paintings
My pleasure! - thanks for your lovely comment!
Me too!
Fully agree. Thanks so much, Paul. Just starting to learn and love this tutorial.
You have magical teaching skills! My Wednesdays are now a day for anticipation, excitement, laughter, learning, and wonder. All thanks to you Paul!
Wow, thank you Deborah!!
I had no idea that I was going to watch 3 of your tutorials on waves, water & reflections this morning, but I'm glad I did - excellent tips and ideas for beginners and improvers. It's lovely to see your mixing palette so that I can see the water/pigment ratio which is always something that I could improve on. Brilliant tutorial - thanks Paul x
You exactly understand the problems beginners face, Great help, Thank you!
Glad it was helpful! ... thanks!
Lovely paintings. I love water, sea, river, lake, stream etc and I really want to paint it properly. So this tutorial was just what I needed. And I love the little touches of humour. ‘Orange uniforms……no, not Guantanamo Bay’. Lol. 😂
Thank you so much 😀
Wait,wait, wait. And there’s the magic. Thank you so much.
The painting of the little bridge is magnificent! Congratulations
Thank you! Cheers!
Paul you are like wizard xxxx thank you for sharing your amazing talent xxx
My Pleasure Danka!
I’ve watched numerous videos and went straight out and bought a watercolour set and have been flying through my pad trying everything. I’ve always been afraid of trying this but I tell your lessons are so valuable I’m accomplishing alt thanks a million
Can’t tell you how wonderful it is to find tutorials that have five different scenarios in ways to paint trees, seascapes, water, rivers, rocks! Thank you for your generosity and sharing these 🙏
My pleasure - glad you enjoyed it!
good to know you are not the only comedian in the family! Love these water paintings.
Wow! Tissue and a magic scalpel to bring those waves to life! Love it!
Glad you like it!
Thank you so much Paul, another great tutorial. I found the rough sea particularly interesting and effective, and the wave was amazing to watch as it took shape. Plenty to keep us going until next week !
Very welcome
Hi, Paul. I somehow missed this marvelous water tutorial earlier this winter, when I was struggling mightily with the advice and examples of other watercolor artists. Now, here you are, offering us simpler, straightforward, and proven techniques to create different "looks" in water, including ROUGH water, which other artists usually avoid or fail at. Thank you so much, Chris (Maine, USA)
Glad it was helpful!
I love watching you. You’re so funny. You’re a great teacher.
I appreciate that
Beautiful Paul! #4 is my favorite. I’m in love with Prussian Blue. Blessings to you!
Thank you! You too!
Thank you Paul,and love the sound effects!😁❤
Me too! Some of my favorite parts! Perfectly placed, wonderful job Paul!
Glad you like them!
I absolutely loved this.
You have taken away my ‘terror’ of even the thought of painting water! Fantastic…thank you so much!
Good to hear Lynda!
Simple yet beautiful and perfect. I always love your fresh joke. Paul, you are a genious.
Thank you kindly
Thank you for this tutorial, Paul! I've never seen/had one, but I watched an artist use one the other day and was fascinated. Looks fantastic for florals and landscapes. So happy to have found you on CZcams! I enjoy not only your painting, but the calm atmosphere you create while doing so.
Glad it was helpful! ... thanks so much!
My seascapes are dedicated to you... tutorials really helped me a lot
Beautiful, enjoyed. Look forward to next lesson.Karen, USA, NC
Glad you enjoyed it!
What a great way to start my Wednesday! Thank you, sir...Cheers!

What a great way to start my Wednesday indeed.
It's the most crucial and hard part of any painting where we have to paint water,thanks for making this video for us
Glad it was helpful!
Enjoyed the brief demonstration about painting water
Thank you so much
Glad it was helpful!
I can't wait to try these techniques. Love your sense of humor. It adds such a wonderfully light touch to every lesson.
You’re really amazing! It looks so easy to do, but I struggle all the time. I will try and try until I get the same results as you. Thank you very much for teaching us! 🙏🏼😁
You can do it!
Paty, I feel the same way! I will keep trying. I like Paul's style!
@@melindaavila498 WE must keep practicing. It's the only way 😊👍
Paul: "...a simple little scene."
Me: *Cries in ultramarine*
I guess practice makes perfect (I know what I'll be doing this weekend)!
Wonderful, diverse examples. Thanks again, Paul!
many thanks!
You are an excellent teacher Mr. Clark. Thank you.
I appreciate that! - thanks!
I’ve really enjoyed watching you paint, thank you !
Thanks so much 😊
Margo was right! after 24 hours of anticipation I am not disappointed, exactly what I needed. Also do you buy a new shirt for every video, or do you have a special room for "video dressing room" I love the water drop. Its so soothing. And as always a perfect tutorial with lots of smiles.
Thanks Misty - some of the shirts I make up myself - some I get on Amazon about 2 days before!!!!
Wow !! So glad I found this video on CZcams!!
You are a great artist 🎨
Your boat on the sea was so realistic I had to stop the video and take sea sick meds!
lol! - good of you to say!!!

Hi Paul, I have started to explore water colour after a diagnosis of metastatic oesopageal cancer. I have always appreciated art but your generosity in sharing the joy of water colour has been inspirational. Thank you.. I number my water colours in an attempt to reduce my judgement of good or bad. for me it the challenge and relaxation combined with the ability to allow the water to work. Im not painting its water colour and has a life of its own. Im finding values and perspective very challenging so thank you for you attention to detail. Frank
Happy to help in anyway!
Thank you Paul, I love the light reflections. And brilliant lesson as always
Glad you enjoyed it

I am amazed how quickly your watercolors take shape and the picture emerges. I have put my craft supplies aside for a while and am ready and anxious to restart . Thank you ever so much it is important to me to keep busy with my disabilities/immobility there are still many things I can do and I feel so lucky to have stumbled upon your youtube videos.
I love this video! 💙 I have always wanted to try to paint water scenes, but I always felt water color to be the most difficult and intimidating of all the painting styles. However, these tutorials make it appear much more do able and I am looking forward to trying this out once I have a watercolor set! A big thank you from this lady in Utah!
Many thanks for this, Paul - very much appreciated.
Glad you enjoyed it
