I love how you say I'm the artist. I've grown because of that.

Please keep these extreme beginner lessons coming. I can't thank you enough for your support, encouragement and truly beginner friendly designs. You make the medium much more accessible and are helping me understand watercolor more thoroughly. I'm about to paint this lighthouse for the 4th time (I think I'm a chronic overworker), but I'm enjoying it each time and improving. Thank you again.

Thank you so much, Chris, for taking the time to do these wonderful tutorials where you patiently explain every step, as opposed to a time lapse video. Your videos are an invaluable learning tool. Your subjects are well chosen and take the mystery out of the painting process which help motivate beginners like me. So, thank you!

Chris, this is another amazing class. I don't consider these tutorials, which seem like presentations to a passive audience. Your presentations offer more than just watercolour instruction; they include things like understanding perspective, shading, composition, how to prepare your materials and different watercolour techniques. I love watching, and re-watching your videos because they are jam-packed with theory and application and beginners can actually grasp and recreate what you are doing. I know the videos seem long to some people, but that is because they offer so much rich content. Your offerings are unique and I appreciate them. Thank you for all your hard work.

Hi Michael, thanks so much for the encouragement, insightful comments and compliments! It keeps me excited about being on KZfaq and I definitely know it helps our fellow artists feel confident that they can trust the process and enjoy the watercolor journey. Thanks again and I’m hoping your paintings are progressing beautifully 👍😎

Great tutorial Chris, thank you 😊 I am so pleased you don't do the very quick videos, they don't teach you anything 😔 You see the finished painting and think it looks great, but you don't have much chance of trying it for yourself. I really like to watch your videos then rewatch and paint along. Please don't change the format 🙏 🙂

I love light houses, looks great and original. What I am noticing about water color is there are water color painters and there are pencil artists who fill in their pencil drawings with water color. In some ways this had me confused. Both are fine, but I prefer to just paint as I am tired of using a pencil, did it for many many years.

I am an intermediate artist and have been that for far too long. I can't seem to get to the step of calling myself an accomplished artist. However, your videos are very helpful and maybe if I keep following what it is that you do so successfully, maybe I will get to that next level of painting. What I love about this painting is the sky and I want to try to duplicate that in my work.
