It's the happy accidents that I love. I would love to go to Scotland someday. It's in my blood being Waddell that is. Enjoy the soul and skill. Carry on Paul Clark with the excellent teaching. Thank you.

You are the best teacher ever!!! Thank you!!!!

You are a fabulous artist, instructed and inspiration. Always a pleasure.

Thanks for a stunning demo. And your Scotsladdie told the funniest story. Thanks for the laughs.

Birds are fly, there is no one cry, brush is dancing, colours are romancing, my heart goes in bottom of silence of this painting. And saying everything is beautiful . My goodness to watch this. Thanks a lot.

A wonderful landscape, hauntingly beautiful background music and that joke😂😂😂. Loved every bit of your tutorial.

Thank goodness another that believe as I do to let the watercolours play on their own before trying to lift, put in, etc. I am self-taught because I believed my mother was the artist, I was more into musical instruments. After her passing when I was about 50 I thought I'm going to give it a go. Started with acrylics, enjoyed it but wasn't very good. So I went to watercolours (Mother always said she was afraid of watercolours and painted in oils), What a blast! Watercolours taught me more about colours, composition, etc. You should see my acrylics now!. Now I jump from acrylics to watercolours to multimedia (freedom at its best!) I never knew I could use my acrylic inks in watercolours. Thank you SO much and for teaching me that I can use pastels too. (Did a test drive with that too as well as watercolour pencils.) Thank you so much for your wonderful and informative KZfaqs. It is always a "pick-me-up",

Thanks for giving the ingredients to this ...much like baking a cake....you are terrific!

Just finished this one. After my Mexican House and Provence Waterfall, I decided to go light on this one, so my bank is more taupe and less splattered. Turned out all right. Has that sense of quiet solitude I was after. Thank you again Paul for another wonderful tutorial.

MARVELLOUS CANT HAVE ENOUGH WATCHING YOU IS LIKE WATCHING GOD CREATING NATURE.... EXCELLENT SIR !!!

I’m new to painting. Started during the shut-down. I’m loving it and hoping to keep improving. I’ve watched this particular tutorial of the Scottish Croft at least 8 times and I can’t get enough. I was halfway done painting it when I had to have both eyes operated on so I’m finally ready to finish. Can’t wait!! Thank you for your excellent instruction. It makes sense to me when I watch your videos.

Loved this composition. I will give it a go. The Angus joke was hilarious.

I love the organized chaos of the foreground!! It looks so much more alive and realistic than trying to paint in all the minute details would. And thanks for the encouragements to branch out beyond just watercolors themselves to create a masterpiece!

So look forward to your paintings every week! Thank you so much Paul x

Coming back: so many precious “lessons” here, thank you!

Der Mr. Clark, I started painting many years ago, but only during my holidays. Later on, during my years as a teacher, with 2 children, a husband, a house and a big garden, there was no time for painting. Now I have 76 years and during the pandemic in 2020 I restarted painting and devellopped a passion for it. I painted after tutorials on KZfaq, but did not dare the loose style of yours. But when I discovered your scottish paintings, I decided to give it a try! Scotland is our "place of longing" and we will stroll around in the Highlands with our Camping car this summer, for the 4th time! In one afternoon I have painted the scottish croft and I think it is not too bad. Thank you very much for the inspiration! Of you would like to see my painting, please tell me where I can post it to.😊 Elisabeth from Germany

I could watch you paint all day. I just love your style. I think I am going to give it a go. Greetings from Wisconsin - USA

That's a stunning painting!! Loved Angus' joke too! LOL

Thank you for another great one! Beautiful to see how that cobalt blue / Payne’s grey mix creates such a dramatic sky. Thanks for sharing!

Oh, my dear wee mother, a third-generation San Francisco "native" McEwan, would have loved that story! In fact I'm sure she's with Nessie now, yucking it up. This painting is my favorite of all I've watched you do : inspirations, modifications, surprise elements around every turn! I can't expect to be able to follow your genius, but you so inspire my soul! Thank you for sharing it with us far-off admirers.🙋🏼‍♀️

Having taught painting to young children for years, I must tell you you are a lovely teacher. I appreciate your calm, step by step guidance, you set a beautiful trusting tone. And Laughter is a magic ingredient!

Lol, that’s a good joke and an amazing class, Paul! We can’t thank you enough for the inspiration and beauty you bring to the world. I’ll be waiting for the next week video impatiently 👏🏻🤩👍🏻

Fab tutorial once again thank you Paul. I didn’t have the inks and I’ve always struggled with such loose ‘spray, drop in colours,let it run and do it’s thing ‘ (Im too neat/ control freak!) but this time it worked, just with the paint mixes and the salt!! Yay!!! Im slowly becoming a painter. 😁

Oh Paul, what a beautiful place.... I want to stay there for a little while and let the wind and the sea blow all my cares away.... I LOVE it!! and yes, I am laughing out loud at your joke... What a gift you are! Lot's of love from Alabama

Thank you for the laugh! And another wonderful tutorial. Currently stuck here in the frozen tundra of Texas (never expected this crazy event) in the USA with no power and water for several days. Charging the phone in the car just so that I can watch some watercolour videos and communicate. Have a lovely day!!

Paul - I've been following you from Northeastern Wisconsin - USA. I'm new to watercolor, and your videos, book and tutorials are the best I've seen. I just want to thank you for your generosity in providing vital details for us beginners (brushes, paint color names, paper, techniques - and above all - the wonderful background music and your sense of humor! Your tutorials feed our knowledge - as well as our spirits! Bless you for all you do. I just ordered your "shameless self promotion" gold brush set and will be ordering your book shortly. Thank you for being an oasis during this dessert of uncertainty and isolation.

I’m really enjoying your videos. Thank you for sharing your skill and knowledge so generously.

Thanks Paul another fantastic painting. Your lessons have really helped me in my painting and you and your videos have helped me and I’m sure many others trough this sad year. Thanks a lot!

Just watched my first video and I’m so glad I did. You have rekindled my interest to pick up the brush again. Thank you so much

I did this painting yesterday and while I haven't looked at it today, I've already done a "morning review " in my head. Couple of adjustments needed I think. I'm loving your tutorials. Good joke too.

Lovely to hear from you again! Now let's watch and learn!!!

Another masterpiece! Absolutely gorgeous! Thanks for sharing your art with us and give us some happy moments!!!♥️😊

I love your paintings. Thank you and your story was very funny.

I always love watching your tutorials and your videos always inspire me to make another painting. I love the organized chaos of watercolor.

Clicked ';like' by the time you said 'morning'!!

Simply brilliant! You venture so bravely into all those areas that we usually admire in other paintings and feel its not for us, surely we cant do it. But you venture forth in your masterly way and do it so well, in the process gently encouraging us to give it a try and keep at it till we excel. Such brilliant techniques in this one. And the last bit where you wet the paper and added clouds- wow! After completing such a beautiful painting I would have been scared to add cauliflowers in my clouds, but you yet again ventured forth and added them, thereby telling us how to fix things.

I miss Scotland soooo much! Meant to go there again last summer. Then came Corona. I like this painting a lot! Will try it out with my newly bought Schmincke colours. Thanks a lot!

Beautiful painting, inspiring, wonderful tutorial and an ending full of fun and laughter! What a lovely gift!😊. A great big thank you Paul☺️.

Great! I watched a few sections 5-6 times in a row to (hopefully) cement those ideas into my painting. Thanks for another great tutorial, Paul!

I am so grateful to your videos ♥️ I am learning so much!

I never liked watercolour until I started watching your paintings, I love the way you paint t and the music is so nice too. Thank you.

I so look forward to your class every week! The way you explain colors and techniques as you go along are wonderful and so helpful! We are indeed lucky to have you as a teacher. Thank you! P.S. it’s ok to drink before noon as long as you mix it with juice! Ha ! Ha!

nice job Paul, and funny story to boot! Thanks as ever for your unselfish sharing of knowledge!

You answered the question regarding % of water to paint before I even had a chance to ask. It makes sense that the more mixing you do the more familiar the technique will become. Thank you from frigid and snow bound Michigan. PS: the Scottish Croft is one of my favorites!

I enjoyed painting this beautiful scottish landscape. Came out a bit different, as the drawing is a bit defferent direction of the fence. Thank you Sir Paul for the lovely video. I love all your tutorials.

Love the joke! I really enjoyed this tutorial which I’m guessing is one of your early ones. Very interesting to see how you mix your colours and in what ratio. Thank you. I learnt a lot.

Hi Paul . I’ve been painting in water colour for about 8 months now and love it . I have been watching so many different artists on KZfaq and although I love them all I can finally say I have found my favourite. Your style of painting is just how I’d like and do paint ( no where near as good obviously) . And the way you teach is perfect . You have a new avid watcher thanks Paul . Ryan from Kent

Thank you for your time and dedication to share your knowledge with us, it is of great value to everyone.

The beauty that you paint and portray on paper is the same beauty that your mind reflects. You must have a beautiful mind Mr. Clark to inspire the world with such beauty and wonder and put it all on paper with brush and paint.

Loved the sky and how it all came together as a picture, still practicing my colours, getting better,

Hello Paul, your composition is impeccable! Love the way you paint, so fast and unbelievable results.

I so look forward to your tutorials each week. Unfortunately, I really haven't had the time to paint much these last few weeks....but saving up all these lessons for when I take my vacation!!!

Hey Paul, since I found your KZfaq Channel just two weeks ago I can't wait so see every day one or two or three... of your fantastic videos! And when I've seen them all, I'll just start over :-D I love your personality and your humor! Along with your great technique and detailed explanations, it is a pleasure to watch your videos. Actually, I was just looking for inspiration and a few tips to broaden my horizons. I have been painting with watercolor for many years, but always only ordered animal portraits strictly according to the photo. But I also want finally paint freely and your videos were a joy to watch. I would like to thank you very much for your work, it's great! Yesterday I also ordered your book and I will also buy your brushes soon :-) Best wishes from Germany, Claudia

I'm sure I've commented this before but I absolutely love your painting style. The way you do landscape or whatever, so loose yet so effective. I'm drawn to this loose style. I love watching you paint and always take something from it. The colors and textures just set the mood beautifully. That joke was a nice finish 😂

I think you did justice to Angus’ joke - and it’s so funny that the quiet guy told it! Another beautiful picture with helpful tips; thank you.

I really am beginning to like your demonstrations Paul, awesome!

Thank you so much .. I feel so much fun when I watch your videos, I feel confident to create beautiful art and creativity.❤❤❤❤

It is so lovely to see you paint in this loose style!

A brilliant lesson ! Thank you Paul x

Fantastic Painting ..really captured the essence of Scotland beautifully !! Thank you so much for sharing and giving the opportunity to try to do it some sort of justice !!

Paul i should have said how much I enjoy looking at your KZfaq demonstrations. You make it look so easy

I love the way you show the ref image, from time to time. So helpful! :)

Thank you for another wonderful tutorial! You make it look so easy......but I try! Love it !

Also, loving that relaxing background music

I always watched your videos with too much enthusiasm. Just like a kid listening intently to her mom's story telling. I learn many things from you. Thank you so much!!

You brought happy tears to my eyes.. laughing too hard. I'm about there now.. I'm currently snowed and iced in...been out of my house one time in the past two weeks.. that was a fast run to the grocery and back trying to beat the next storm... and won't be able to get out again till probably Saturday or Sunday (I HOPE). I'm resorting to having long conversations with my cat, and she's not to keen to hold up her end.

Beautiful. I think you make it look so easy.

You paint so effortlessly yet so beautifully

Just one word, Wow, Thank you so much for your tutorial, And thank you so much for your time, Mr Clark sir.

Brilliant as always, the way you have treated the foreground is especially effective, have just finished a composition which would have benefitted from the same treatment, but I did use the white pastel pencil, thank you Paul, wonderful.

I always look forward to your paintings, works of art. I love the joke and your Scottish accent was great I thought!!

I throughly enjoyed this painting. It is very dramatic. Thank you!

You are a genius Paul.....

Great tutorials, techniques. Enjoy your sense of humour and painting style.

absolutely lovely Cant wait to come home to scotland hopefully in June Thanks for giving us cheer and inspiration with your beautiful Art work Paul

Really interesting to see the effect you create using different media. You make it look very simple as always. I love the sky. Thanks as ever for a stimulating tutorial

Love your paintings, thanks Paul, from Canada!

Another awesome painting i can try. Thank you for this and the giggles!

Absolutely fantastic painting, using the inks is marvellous, looking forward to the next one, Thank You.

Love the painting !!! ... and the story 😆😆👍💕

I have very much been enjoying your videos. They have gotten me back into using watercolor, which I have worked with since my early 20's! Although I am struggling with muddiness, it is still fun. And fun to step away from my oil paints for a bit. Thank you from Colorado!

Thank you again. Very nice to see your work, as good as always.

Thank you for these. I am really loving trying them.

Thank you for your tutorials. I loved the foreground sort of had a 3D effect

You always do such marvelous work with water paints. Those pictures are beautiful.

Another enjoyable video and stunning painting. I hope to paint like you when I grow up (I'm 66). Thank you for your generosity in providing the sketches.

Perfection! As always. Love it!

My gosh your videos are just marvellous and your trees seem so real.to tell you the truth I have never ever seen such real tree painting by any artist but you ❤ you make everything so easy and simple but at d end of the videos all dumbstruck splendid paintings. Rare of the rarest ones bcoz so easy but at d same time most difficult to copy. Thank you so much air for your support n generosity to show the whole wide world your marvellous paintings. Many gratitude and tons of luv ❤ from India.

Love this one Paul...well done sir. You are such a good narrator as you teach the steps of your artwork. And hey, being a Scotsman myself, the joke at the end was funny...thank you...Mike in Cali

I am amazed at this landscape, came out awesome! Somehow you bring out the best in me, lol

It always looks so easy when you do it. Doing it by myself, it's ending in a mess. But I try! Greetings from Germany.

I really really love all your tutorials!! 😍😍 You explained everything clearly! From your tutorials I learnt step by step which one is the first, second, third,... to do and the technique for every step. Thank you very much for your kindness to share your amazing skill! ❤❤ P. S. I'm sorry for my English 🙏

What a beautiful picture! I'll probably bog it up but will have a go - it's the only way to learn! I'm really loving your brushes, Paul - better by far than any I've tried before.

Wow amazing , beautiful... Paul thank you , I always look forward to see a new painting from you.. as always just outstanding and so much to learn from you thank you .

thank you again, for sharing, and TEACHING us, not just a "demo", like some artists to... also, as a "Yank", I learned the new word, "croft", it's a house! And, again, I like how you add humor, to relax us, and make us smile :)

Beautiful painting, especially as I love the Scottish Highlands as well. The haunting music was a bonus... as was the funny story.

Wow! Thank you Paul

Thank you again Paul for a fantastic tutorial, I'm new to your classes ( about 3 weeks) - I found you from a link on an online course and haven't gone back to the course yet as I'm so absorbed by your tutorials and have just bought your book. I'm watching and re-watching as I practise each lesson and enjoying them so much - you're an absolute inspiration.

Very interesting to me as I am such a control maniac. I need to finally paint some of your lessons! Thanks, Paul.

Loved the joke, loved ur painting, loved the soothing background music, loved the Commentry, in fact it's all so poetic. Now look at that i have so much to thank you for. 🙏
