Jane, thank you for the tips. I did my first painting yesterday on a budget and I had so much fun that I wanted to let you know what I did cause it might help others. I didn't want to feel wasteful or stressed out just starting nor did I have the finances so I bought big bottles of Apple Barrel Paint and a pack of the large sulfite paper from Blick and some cheapo large brushes and I'm having a blast! I tape the paper to my art desk and go ham! I love the technique and even though I have to layer and repaint a bit due to cheap thin paint, I can waste all I want, splash it on, smear it around and what a blast! Thank you for sharing your technique of painting! My first painting was way better than I thought I would do so I'm stoked!

I've taken lots of workshops from many people and Jane's are among the best - on the road, in her studio, on video. Many well-intentioned teachers bog students down in complexity, do's & don't's, and rules. Jane: 2 brushes; simple inexpensive colors; always encouraging; no failures. Listen again starting at 17:05 - says it all. Good guide for painting (and maybe life).

OMGoodness. I love the negative painting process. From the very beginning I loved the "sky holes" that appear so quickly and realistically. I've never tried negative painting before, but now that I see the differences between your two paintings, I HAVE TO jump in and give it a go. Thank you for sharing your skills and expertise with all of us! WOW!

I do like the one with the red background better. Thank you

Another wonderful demonstration Jane,your passion shines through!❤❤❤👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

Hello Jane, you have reignited my passion for painting! Thank you for these wonderful demonstrations. I did a BA a few years ago in Fine Art and have generally stayed on the abstract path, I needed a change and the way you paint is exactly the way I want to. Abstract is great but I tend to be too precise with my painting of scenery and people, watching you paint has changed all that! 👋🏻🇬🇧

Thanks Jane I like your loose brush work and negative shape approach with a toned ground. Craig

Рада новому видео,буду пробовать,красная подложка искрит и делает работу с солнечными бликами, спасибо за ваш труд

New subscriber here. I hope you know just how much of an impact you are having, how relatable your work, your presentation and explanations. You are re-inspiring many - what a gift. Thank you!

Both are very good but the one with the red background has more style and personality. Thanks so much for this terrific demonstration of an explanation on both techniques. It's wonderful to watch experts working in their field.

LOVE it!!! Thank you for sharing your Secret!!!!!!

Yay! So happy to see a new video Jane. I love watching your style. Thank you. It’s nice to see so many more admirers too!

I'm so glad I found you, I'm really enjoying your videos, looking forward to more :)

Loved this demo thanks so much. You explained and showed the difference so well. The painting negatively painted and with the red background is so much lovlier!

Love it! Your demo is a great example ~ thank you!

So excited to see a new video today! That made my day, so thank you! I love your work! 😊

Thanks for the demo. I really like the one with the red background. It looks more painterly and more pop. I will definitely give this a try!

Je préfère la peinture négative.... c'est pourquoi je regarde vos vidéos.... hâte de voir la prochaine. Merci pour les partages....

Oh wonderful, Jane, thank you! Boy, your announcement ALMOST makes me want to go to Florida, just to have that workshop in person with you! For now, your videos free and paid will have to do.

Love this side by side comparison. I see it in a new way now. Thank you! 🎉

I’m so glad you did another video! I must agree that the red background gives it a much more interesting painting! I’m really learning some great stuff from you! Thanks!❤

Your channel is my new favourite channel.thank you for posting a new vid. I have been waiting. Love your work! Thank you.

Thank you SO MUCH ...LOVVV it!! Summer greetings from South Africa 🇿🇦 🇿🇦

Thank you so so much for this information! I have always loved this style but didn't know how to achieve it! ❤

I live your videos. I tried painting with the red first and I love it. You are going to get me to relax and enjoy. Thanks

I am so glad I just found you! I love your style of painting and you make it look so easy! I am someone that sits to close to the canvas and tickles it to death. I am going to try your way tomorrow morning. I’ve also never used and angled brush before. Let me say thank you so much for sharing your talent with us and being so generous with your free video’s. I will be trying one of your online classes for sure!

So much info in this demo! Thank you! I love your negative painting, broken color style!!

So amazing!!! Can’t wait to slap some red on my canvas & make a beautiful painting 🖼️ BTW, I have friends in Mount Dora. They are wonderful realtors, Jeanette & Linda. You may know them. Love your style. Thanks for sharing ❤

Thank you I started a couple years ago and have progressed pretty quickly. I'm happy with my progression. Thank you for your inspiration. I'll keep following you.

watching from Orlando. I'm glad to have found your channel. I decided to try painting and had no idea where to start. I was skeptical of the orange background, I'd never heard of that before. Love it!

Beautiful. Like the one on the right more. Thank you from sharing. Greetings from Perth Australia.

I’m so happy I found you! All the way in Australia so I’m going to take one of your online classes. I love your style you make it look so easy. Please make more landscape tutorials with different type of trees. ❤

I LOVE the negative shape painting one so much better! ❤ 🤩 Also, thank you for sharing the “warm background” tip in your videos. I think this is what I’ve been missing out on and why I’m not as satisfied with my paintings. 😃

Thanks Jane from Australia.

I love your style of painting. I’m going to get brave enough to try it.

I love your painting and you have inspired me to get out and try a different way so thank you! I was excited to see a new video. Will look for the new lesson too. Thank you for sharing your knowledge with us.

This was a great lesson! Thank you, Jane and Jane!

I'm excited to have found you....looking forward to more videos. This one was great and just what I was trying to figure out. Bill from Canada

Don't be afraid, they look great- esp the red one!

I sure wish you had more videos on KZfaq!

So helpful! Excellent explanations and teaching style, Jane!

I’ve been watching your videos for a week or so and thoroughly enjoy your process. I’m not a negative painter mostly because I am detail oriented… but I have two canvas painted red orange and waiting for them to dry. Can’t wait to see if I can do it and hold back lol

This was so interesting and helpful, thanks for explaining it so well!

An excellent exercise! I always struggle with what color I should undercoat my canvas...I usually end up with burnt sienna, but have had excellent results with cadmium red or as you've suggested, orange...looking forward to your next video!

It Is good when you zoom in ..lov from South Africa 🇿🇦 🇿🇦 🇿🇦

I love your style!

Good advice!

Great video !!

Very cool, thank you for this

I love your style

It would be so nice if we could see your studio and how you have it set-up.

Джейн, спасибо за "радостные" работы!

Thanks beautiful,but I would have liked to see the comparison between the two techniques with both canvases tinted.

Que bonito y educativo

Super ❤❤❤

Love, love, love!!!! Only complaint- you don't post 3 a day😂😂😂❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

I asked my son which one he like best at the end when they were done he picked the negative one I’m torn myself I like EM both and I enjoy doing both styles I never knew negative until watching this channel and I tried it and actually really have fun with it Your videos are appreciated!

❤❤❤

Inspiring. Obvious which picture has your "soul". One is a picture to have on your wall, to gaze at and dream....the other is very nice too ..perhaps for a doctor's surgery or travel shop. ( Hope im not insulting you)

I love the way you use plenty of water.... Does it ever compromise the bonding power of the paint?

❤ 17:27

Your voice is kind of echoey. Maybe if you wore a mic you would sound clearer? Just a thought. I love all of your videos. I’ve just recently found you and you’ve really inspired me to start painting more loosely. Keep ‘em coming.

Another great lesson thanks jane! Question, are we allowed to sell our renditions of your lessons?

Do you have more tutorials to download on your website? thanks

I love your method of painting but how do you finish them. I don’t think you leave it at this stage. I need more help with finishing than starting. I think I ruin my paintings at the end.
