I’m just coming out of a deep depression and finding your videos has really inspired me to finish a painting I started over a year ago. So thanks very much for helping pull me up from my knees 🥰

I really really appreciate this tutorial of a majestic old tree by the waters. I am planning to do a version of it soon as a birthday gift for my soon to be 89 year old dad. He is that immovable tree that all my family has depended on all these years. I am a new oil painter and this looks like something I can do as my 3rd painting. Thank you for being such an encouragement!

Most enjoyable to watch and learn. I’m 78 years old now and just started painting about six years ago. Personally I prefer oil paints as I find them easier to blend and move around. Especially when painting in clouds, sky, grass and leaf colours. My take aways from this session were how easily you managed the very start of the background and how well the colours you chose fit so nicely with the overall painting. Was also very pleased to see the two small water falls you added. Well done. In one of your other sessions I truly liked your use of a fan brush to create clouds. I’ll keep checking for more tutorials. Vic in Vernon, BC. Thank you! Cheers!!

Nice work Justin, I prefer oils because they are so easy to blend and the drying time suits an old fella like me, I love painting landscapes because down here in NZ there are so many places to get ideas from.I tried painting a portrait once and it ended up being a pond in a landscape painting.Thanks.

I started with oils in the 80's. Painted flowers, apples, grapes. Watched Alexander and Ross. Enjoyed painting some landscapes the way they did. Started a job, left painting behind. In 18, i retired, and now beginning to paint some. Now i am learning to paint with acrylics(challenging after oils years ago) and faux glass painting is a lotta fun too. 🙂

Absolutely beautiful. I use to paint many years ago. I will be 79 next month and you have inspired me to pick it up again. I am excited to get back to it again. Thanks for sharing your skills!!

Simply beautiful, thank you for sharing.

I’ve only been painting for 5 years. Still learning. I don’t want to fast forward. Love it all ! I have only used oil. Thank you so much for these tutorials!

Thank you so much for all you do and helping so many of us become like you, truly a gift!

I just found you randomly on you tube. Although I paint in acrylics, I’m crazy about your techniques and color usage. I’m not really able to switch over to oils, but I’m still going to try and put my own spin on this. Thanks Justin. Appreciate you sharing your talent. God bless you!

I love oils! Just got back into it after doing acrylics for a few years. I’ve watch two of your videos! Two of my very favorite subjects, clouds and trees! Thank you for sharing you extraordinary talent! ♥️

I think this may be my favorite. I love this old tree. Reminds me of home and my childhood. Thank you. Sharing

I just painted along this morning...my first ever painting! Spent 2 hours in confusion and this tutorial was brilliant to watch....chuffed how it turned out for a first time effort!! Thanks

absolutely amazing, i want to step right into this landscape! magic!

Thank you, for your generosity and artistic creation.

Brother Justin... I usually drop a comment in a more silly tone, while trying to be encouraging overall. This time, however, I hafta just say in all seriousness how awesome a job you do on these quick demonstrations. I am trying so hard to grasp the techniques, and sometimes it can be frustrating when I don’t get the expected desired result! Watching YOU work, I’ve not only learned technical concepts clearer, I’m motivated to “hang in there...”. Thank you for showing how you get these many effects without leading to an expensive (albeit well deserved) series of videos I would pine over, all the while frustrated that I don’t have the dough to spare! I could ask you a ton of questions for advice, and if you ever have absolutely nothing better to do, it’d be an honor to have the chance to ask ya about a thing or two... is that a possibility? You do an awesome job and I sure appreciate ya, brother! If THIS is what you do in an hour, I bet the stuff you really put yer heart into is ferocious! Anyhoo... glad I found yer vids on KZfaq, & I hope you keep em comin... cuz yer definitely in the right bizzniss! Rock on, my friend! Wayne in VA

Gorgeous! I love the light on the tree.

Thank you for sharing your painting technique with only a couple of brushes! It is so intriguing to me what can happen on canvas in a short time!

Wow that was beautiful!!! Thank you very much!!

I am a beginner painting with acrylics I love watching other artists and their techniques. I always learn so much. Thank you for sharing your thoughts and techniques. I truely appreciate it.

That beautiful tree is a masterpiece! - I love this painting.

Love watching you paint!!

Hi Justin I'm 72; never painted before so I guess this is part of my bucket list. Seriously though, I need this right now. I am in awe of what you do. I like that you are so real and how you express yourself in your painting. It's just wonderful watching your process. I've been studying a lot, watching different painters and trying to learn about mediums and brushes and how colors work and mix together. I want to paint waves, water, redwood trees and bark. Yes bark, have you ever seen the bark on a rainbow eucalyptus tree?? Things in nature that have been part of my life. I did one tutorial that came with Bob Ross paint set. I used a small canvas that I wiped several times and ended up using enough paint to paint a wall mural; most ended up on my dog's towels. I've even practiced evergreen trees on grocery bags with leftover paint. Thank you so much for sharing your talent. I want to join and support your gift but need a little more time to dabble around and watch and buy more brushes!!! One of each isn't enough. I spend too much time cleaning! Thank you. Thank you. Thank you.🧡💜💛

Thanks sharing your passion and joy. Lovely

Yes really enjoyed it

Absolutely Beautiful!

I love how the highlights really brings the painting to life

My favourite things are trees and you do them beautiful an inspiration please continue painting them x
