I think you did a fantastic job in explaining how to paint this jar!
Beautiful painting
Lovely work so very well done.
Beautiful 😮
It looks beautiful! Making the background a darker green really made it pop. The way you approached the jar makes it less scary. If I ever get enough practice with watercolors, I think I might try a glass jar. It no longer feels impossible. Thank you for a lovely video.
Thank you for watching!
Since you showed how you did it it doesn't look impossible anymore. I think I'm going to try painting it. Thank you 😊. JK FLORIDA USA 🇺🇸.
Great! Good luck with your painting and thanks for watching!
Your explanation of the different areas of the glass are so helpful. I’m really enjoying your instructional videos as well as the rest of your channel. Thanks so much!
I'm so glad! Thanks for watching!
Excellent 😊
I loved the way you broke down the individual sections to look at and address. I tend to get overwhelmed with looking at the entire subject at once. I want to try painting glass now. I just need to find a great reference photo to work from! I'm excited now!
I'm so glad that you found the video to be helpful! There's a link in the description section of the video to the photo I used for this tutorial in case you'd like to use that for your reference. Thanks for watching!
Wow. That's amazing. I would never have guessed how that was done. Thank u. It's beautiful. I subscribed. I have painted in watercolor for years. I love it. I can learn some new techniques from you.
Thank you so much for your nice comment. Thanks for watching and subscribing!
Thank you for this video. It is so very in breaking everything down into manageable portions.
I’m so glad you found it helpful. Thanks for watching!
This is gorgeous - so realistic, and fascinating to see how you have broken the process down into doable sections. Thank you for sharing your skills!
Thanks for watching!
that is crazy amazing! love it (the darker background was an improvement but hey it was about perfect before that!). thank you.
Glad you liked it!
Amazing. I’m sure I don’t have the patience or the ability to see such detail, but it was fun to watch. I’d like to try it some rainy day! Thanks for saying it took about 3 hours, so I don’t get frustrated with the time it takes.
Thanks for your comment! I like to know how long a drawing actually took, otherwise it's easy to get frustrated because you think you're going too slowly when compared to the sped up video. You should give this a try! I'm sure you could do it.
Your videos always feature great music, I love it
Thanks so much!
What a beautiful painting! So much talent! Love the darker background.
Thank you!
Wonderful instructions, thank you!
Thanks for watching!
Looks great and thanks for introducing this technique 😊
You’re welcome! Thanks for watching.
Amazing realistic painting of glass. Thank you
Thank you for watching!
Thank you for the video. I am currently in a watercolor class and I want to learn more about painting glass. Your painting is beautiful, but I think I need to start with a simpler subject. I did subscribe to your channel.
I'm glad you liked the video and thank you for subscribing!
Loved it 🙌😍❤️
Terrific. And your presentation style is very appealing - pace is great.
Thanks so much for your feedback! I’m glad the pace is good - I have a hard time deciding how quickly to move through the steps sometimes!
Loved it! And your technique. Your instruction style was really good too. Can’t wait to try this.🎨
Great! Good luck to you!

Very effective, thank you. It is lovely.

Wonderful work!
Thank you!
Love it! Great presentation!
Thanks for watching!
Amazing!!!
Thank you!
My, I learned so much from you today. Now I see going slow and using a small brush works much better. I like the way you divided the jar into sections , I think that will help too. It amazes me that watercolor can look so realistic. Thank you for this very helpful tutorial. This is my first time to see you paint, now I'm a big fan!
You are so welcome!
This was great! Question: how (what did you use) to remove the masking?
I really enjoyed the music - it captured that “in the zone” feeling so well!
I’m so glad you like it! I used a rubber cement pick-up to remove the masking fluid. I’ll leave a link to one on Amazon in the description. 😊
The link is up!
This was a beautiful demonstration. Quick question do you trace the original picture to get the guidelines to paint over? If so, do you use charchol tracing paper or something else? Thank you!
I use the grid method to transfer my drawings. There's a video on how to do it on my channel. Thanks for watching!
Not trying to be critical, but your reference photo needed to be on the right side as it obstructed the view of the left side of the jar. The painting turned out beautifully done. Glass is a major challenge for me. Going a little bit slower would make learning from you easier. Most serious painters can handle a 45-60 minute video. Thanks for letting us see your work. 😊
Thanks for your input and for watching!
Would have been better to show the drawing of the jar and the masking off as well. I WOULDNT KNOW WHERE TO PUT THE MASKING FLUID
I’m sorry my instructions on where to put the masking fluid were not adequate for you. There is a separate tutorial on how to draw the picture that can be found here: czcams.com/video/a3b_UgaFU0U/video.html
So rude to shout like this. What’s wrong with you???
