We like the longer format

Much prefer the long format as it is easier to understand how a sketch is painted from start to end, what goes first or later. And the thought process in between. Thanks very much!

Loved the longer version. Watching the way you make the brush dance across the page is very mesmerizing. I’ve watched this a few times now and learn more each time. Thank you so much for sharing this.

Love the longer format. Watching you work is so interesting and insightful. More please!

Love the longer format

I love the long form. Thanks for the helpful commentary Marc.

I do like both formats, but being able to watch the entire process with this longer video is very educational. It can really provide specifics on this type of watercolor painting. It was so interesting to hear about Sargent, as I just finished a virtual tour of his paintings. Unfortunately, they focused more on his portraits than his watercolors. She said that would be a different tour. I did learn a lot, though, and it certainly helped me understand your reference to scraping. Thank you so much, Marc! Brilliant, as always. 😊😊

Excellent dynamics of your watercolor process. reflection action at all times. thanks for sharing

Love the longer version.

Thank you for showing the entire process! I love your work.

I like both formats. It was very nive to see the actions in real time and how the watercolor flowed into the sections .

These long form videos are really interesting!! If you made more I'd be pretty stoked.

I know I’m late to the party, but this is fantastic! It showed the time involved to help me plan for urban sketches, you shared what you thought was a mistake (relatable), and it was great to hear that you continued to think about it and came back the next day to modify the drawing to your satisfaction. I enjoyed the longer format and the insights you provided. I’m trying the Sargent scratches for sure. Thanks for taking the time to share with us!

Really enjoyed seeing the entire process. Enlightening!!! Thank you. Hope to see more soon

I like both formats. It is nice to see the entire process so I would definitely like to see more of the longer videos. :)

I enjoyed this very much! I'd never seen anyone do the ticking with the xacto. And it was really helpful to see how to picked and accented the planes of the face and outfit. Great tip on going back at the end to touch up the darks. I'm always afraid I'm overworking it, but I can see where this would be super helpful without actually overworking it...if careful.

This was great. So many great tips. Fascinating how you did the face. I'm still at the just colouring it all in phases. Thanks for this.

Superb, Marc. This more detailed (and slower) approach is what I aspire to do. Clearly I need better water/brush control to achieve it. Thanks for this.

I like both formats. It's very interesting sometimes to see all the small steps and changings of your paintings. Thank you very much, Marc 👍

Like the longer version -

very interesting thanks

Marc, for our edification, could you post the actual reference photo? Would love to see how it was rendered. Thank you!
