Truly an artist and master. The greatest thing is that you are not in competition with a camera. So painterly, and expressive and interpretive, the technique always in service to the expression. I have learned so much from you

Gorgeous! The colors in this painting are so deep and rich. You’re so gifted, Andrew, as an artist and a teacher. Thank you for being so generous!

Congratulations on reaching 500k. You are on a roll this year, and we benefit from it. Thank you!

Love your still life, you have to be one of the best, most talented artists of our time Andrew. Your paintings constantly blow me away, I don't know of any artist who is more talented. I will definitely check out your school. Thanks for sharing your talent.

Honestly your still life paintings are some of my favorites. It’s it’s own adventure, truly, the time it takes when flowers die or fruit shrivels or changes color, all of it mate. It’s great watching you work your gift thanks for sharing with us Andrew.

It's amazing the love and dedication that he puts into it

Hi Andrew🖐... I was just at a family funeral and heard from family connections from Lawrence, that you stood up against a real touchy subject,... You are amazing artist and a true blue kiwi standing on the right side of history when so many didn’t,... my hats go’s off to you my friend 👍

Watching you paint a still life while I paint a still life. I used a cardboard box to control the light like you did in a previous video, it's been a fun project

Congrats.Andrew,you are an amazing person,i have watched you grow into not only an amazing Painter,but a very special person.Namasta.Toni.

Andrew, I have followed you for years have learned a ton from you. I wish when I was still traveling Australia and NZ frequently with my engineering so I could have painted outdoors with you and Sam and other good artists. I truly have enjoyed both islands of NZ unfortunately many of my friends have passed on. You have been good with teaching and sharring not only the "how to do it" but equally important the "Why" you do various steps and techniques. You are young and I am old but old dogs can still learn! Thanks.

Amazing stuff! Learn so much every time I watch you! The still life’s of the old Dutch masters are just insanity. One day I’ll find me a fancy pants nautilus shell chalice to paint!

I like the fact that you show the subject matter in a small area while you painting so we can see what you painting and what you are looking at at the same time.

I can't wait to look for items to paint a still life. Other projects are on hold. Thank you Andrew.

Love the squash still life’s.

I love this painting! I love pumpkins in general , I keep one in my room, makes me happy just by looking at it :)

You are like a new age Bob Ross to me. Youre so helpful, encouraging and generous with your knowledge!!

I really like how much effort you put into the texture. It turned out beautifully ❤️

You have me geeking out about them. I’ve always loved them but this is amazing.

I'm THRILLED to see you without a hat!!! You are so handsome!!! Thanks for another terrific tutorial!

Your work is astounding! Thank you for what you do for other artists.

I was appreciating how useful your knife-tipped brush was at the 5:55 mark, in getting into the grooves of that long pumpkin. I suddenly did a reality check, as I had forgotten that you're painting on flat linen, there are no "grooves" except in my head because your masterly work tricked my brain!! I'm not a painter but really admire the draftsmanship and subtlety of colours , and truly seeing that you explore and share here.

You really captured the beauty of something as ordinary as a pumpkin

I love how you geek-out over your subject! I am the same way when I paint my random collection of sea shells and old bottles. All those various textures, reflections and personalities.... Thanks for sharing your experience!

With the eye of an artist like you everything becomes so beautiful because there we touch a parcel of divine perfection Thanks a lot Master

As always love to watch you paint and the tips, tricks and general information you offer is soo greatly appreciated!!! Your art is AMAZING!!!

I have watched and shared your teachings and have so enjoyed your epic journey from meager beginning to now. It was enlightening to learn the backdrop of changes and struggles along the way. You have changed my opinion the usefulness of digital art. Like you, I'm a traditionalist and I didn't see the purpose of it's uses, until now. It saves time, supplies and provides the client with a concept that they would have had trouble visualizing otherwise. You are an incredible inspiration for all of us struggling artist. Thank you for sharing your time and talent and also, your beautiful country. I look forward to seeing more.

As usual Andrew you are making oil painting look easy, the texture of the wood grain and the inner core of the pumpkin looks amazing.

U r a tutor for professionals. Beginners like me can just hear and awe

I love painting still lifes from life for all the reasons you said. It's just so fun. Working from life with any subject is such a reflective experience that is worth knowing. I love pumpkins/squash and this is a lovely still life set-up and beautiful painting. I've been wanting to paint pumpkins for ages.

Taking your art to the next level. You've spent years working to develop your art skills but the real way to lift your work is to depict subjects that are real to you.. or have a real depth of meaning. I always think the biggest challenge for an artist is finding a subject... Would be interesting to see how deep, as an artist you can go with creating a piece of artwork that represents Andrew and has real passion and belief behind the work!

I don't want to fail to say thank you so much for the still life, really appreciate it it is truly a treasure

You are an amazing realism painter, the pumpkins are mouth watering and the texture of table is so realistic, wow how gifted you are and thanks for sharing your talent and teaching tips, Maureen South Australia

amazing andrew, so much volume!

I just love watching you painting. Your information is very much appreciated. Thank you so much. ❤

The mark of a true "Master"= you can paint anything, well! Nicely done! Personal favorites are your portraits. I have enjoyed watching you over the years and I thank you for continuing to provide quality on the 'free' side of the paywall! Glazing: truly love to see how you accomplish this valuable technique. The closeups with the details are singularly appreciated! On your "new look", you are fortunate that you have the skull shape that handles the "chrome dome" look, very well, indeed! Personally, I love the look of no hair on the top, but a full, but well manicured and shaped beard on the bottom. Again, thank you for the opportunity to share your journey and your expertise. It is lovely to watch fine, masterful technique that has the same level of quality in the video production. I look forward to continuing to share your journey. The learning never stops. Just FYI, color and transparency are my personal explorations currently. Cheers, Kristine.

Still life painting made so easy to learn ! Thank you Andrew

Still life is great, you can set up anything, you can get hooked on it 😊😊

So great! Just watched your pears-video again and realized that this painting was in the background!

Love the colours! Very reminiscent of the old masters indeed!

Can't beat working from life ... Great painting Andrew :)

Just beautiful. Old school raw talent. ❤💪❤

the images do great credit to the subjects, I just, - Love the choice of autumn red orange. A course I went on was for painting an autumn leaf - We were taught that we had to mix the exact colours we saw by four degrees. eg Yellow yellow yello red. or red red yellow yellow. etc, we were not allowed to draw the maple leaf only to apply the shapes within the shapes directly as they appeared. The results were amazingly true to life. Interesting results.. Rosie Hoy New Zealand

This is phenomenal, thank you for sharing.

Awesome 😊 Waiting for new landscape...

wow, great painting, fantastic tips too ! well done master artist !

Fantastic painting!

Your suggestions really get me going. Thanks mate. Love what you do and how you communicate brother!

Amazing Andrew. Love the subject. Not sure Ive seen a pumpkin that shape here in Spain? Love the video. Xx debs

Another new Tish video! Thanks for the great content, Andrew!

Anything that you do it's beautiful. Absolutely marvelous. Enjoy your videos so so very much. Even though you don't have any hair. LOL. Thank you

Thank you Andrew!

What a beautiful painting. I love Fairytale pumpkins.

Just love it love it love it!

Andrew ya went high speed, low drag!

While I love all your paintings (and your drawings - man!!!) I especially enjoy your still lives. Somehow it's so soothing to watch them being painted and also to watch them being done, if that makes any sense. Something draws me into these pictures and makes me want to look close, then far, then close again. Beautiful vegetables, and also the one with the scull and the flowers.

My favorites are your still life paintings!!

Доброе утру Эндрю! Как всегда отличный результат!

Ok. I'm in. Skills like these have to be respected.

I don't paint with oilpaints at all but I really enjoy watching your videos and I trully admire your amazing art.

Absolutely informative. Although dark tones are used throughout, the contrast is still so evident

Awesome job, very nice result 👍 doesn't matter the subject, I went to an exhibition in Victoria Australia years ago, and it was small paintings of shoes, but so beautifully painted that they demanded some time in front of each one. Loved your 🎃 nice one 👍

Very interesting colors and shades!

Loved watching you create this painting!

This guy can paint!

Great work . Great detailing. ❤❤❤🔥🔥🔥

Modern day Master. Thanks for the videos.

👋Thank you for sharing this video Andrew. You did an excellent job with this still life ! I really appreciate being able to watch and listen to your explanations, it helps immensely ! Have a great time.❤

Stunning

Beautiful!❤️

Love your work

Amazing Thankyou for sharing so much knowledge iv been a massive fan for many years now and even have my own KZfaq tattoo channel but these are amazing not just the obvious amazing result…

Sou de São Gonçalo Rio de Janeiro curto muito suas pinturas realista parabéns

Puff, amazing!! Thanks for sharing it!

A master!!

Great Mate, Love the video.

Gorgeous as ever.

Stunning❤🤗❤

😍😍 Awesome 👌

Complimenti veramente ❤️ meraviglioso 😍

Ok, I'll start painting still life again

omg you make me want to paint!

Andrew, it wouldn't hurt me a bit if you would teach some of us and arranging I stay alive. For a while I thought I was the landscape painter Wildlife painter when I looked on the wall I didn't see but a few landscape I live in Western Art did see a lot of stuff. LOL as a few Magnolia which I don't like to paint flowers. I found it educational I enjoy painting old things as old broken-down boots rustic cowbells denim, and so forth. But I do struggle with placements, I don't care for a cluttered subject, very simple Arrangements, catching light I feel I struggle with. Thank you Andrew appreciative to you a master!

So beautiful!

Wow, this is amazing.

I like your works 😉

Es una genialidad muy bueno los tonos de colores las luces 😮

13:23 A Dutch Ripple Frame will look good for this painting. I see that you have framed it in golden frame, can't see exactly what type of frame that is. camera is blurred in the background. Great painting by the way. 👍👌 Congratulations for 500k🔥subs🎉.

Amazing

Beautiful!!!

Pumpkins are fun, sexy and wonderful subjects to paint! I can't understand how someone can find them dull? I have one lovely bluish green sitting on my desk and waiting to be captured but before that I think I need to get a dagger - it looked so handy! Well done, Andrew!

Beautiful Thank You for sharing 💐

Very nice Andrew, you were talking archival paints, listening to Virgil on using mars black and yellow mix rather than Burnt Umber, have you tried not using Umber before?

Ur my top fan 👍👌

Oil painting the best painting for me...:)(: For high speed results...

I love it!

Thank you Master🙏🙏🙏🇪🇹

Hi The Tish. Wondering where you are shopping for paint these days. U used to get it in Aust. Where now. What brand of white r u using. Hi Rach :). Have a great water free day. We are flooded out up here.

Good morning sir🙏🙏☕☕☕☕☕☕

I know painting flowers and butterflys is a bit cliche but how about mushrooms? I think you should find some weird mushrooms and make a painting of it... maybe next to a raw fish 😄😄😆 I would love to see the contrast of these textures.
