You just went with the flow rather than replicating. A basic trait of a great Artist...!

Must say Stan your series of instructions are great for any one learning in all mediums yet in watercolour , it has a special place for me Thanks

Everything you speak is the geetha of painting. A true tutorial. I only regret for not living near where you are. Thanks a lot.

desperately waiting for more detailed and longer intermediate level videos :)

I love your short tutorials. They're like a snippet into your mind... much more organized than mine... I might add. I'm running through your numbered tutorials and I'm at about 18. I've been painting off an on for ages but I'm self taught, so I'm constantly trying to reinvent the wheel. I've learned so much about watercolors in a few hours my mind is going to burst open... in a HAPPY WAY. I am ABSOFREAKINGTHRILLED to have stumbled onto your site. I'm ready to throw my acrylics into the street and play with watercolors only. I was about to do the exact opposite, but NOW I UNDERSTAND THE PROBLEMS OF GETTING THE RIGHT AMOUNT OF WATER ON THE BRUSH... and more and more and more and so much more. Thank you dear sensei. I can't wait to get to a blank piece of paper!

Like your art work and all your lessons. Really helpful! YOU ARE Great artist and great instructor! Thank you so much!!!

Wao!! Simple and Beautiful. Thank you Sir for this lesson waiting for more. :)

Wow! What a great class! Thank you!

Bravo! Magnifique leçon!

Thank you so much for your concise explanations!

thanx Master, im really happy to meet the channel, im learning a lot from your Lessons, and i say thanx from my heart Stan, u are really brilliant, and a perfect Master, a hug from Spain, full support from me :))))

Excellent

Very encouraging. Thank you.

Hello Stan, thanks for the valuable lesson. What kind of paper did you use? Do I need to wet the paper and tape it onto a wooden board? I want to paint the portrait you showed. Is is available ? Do you students trace the portrait before they start painting or do they fill in the face while painting ?

great videos.

it's interesting here that you use tape, but (if i'm understanding right) you don't actually tape it to anything, the tape is just to get the edges/border? i never thought to do that, i always just use the tape to tape the paper to a board. it's an interesting idea. but i think the tape i use is not the best, because whenever i untape it, often there's some color that leaked under it, so it's not a pure white edge. i'm using blue '3M' tape. perhaps there is something else i could try, if you have any suggestions?

Thanks!

Thank you master

Sir, please make more advance stage lessons. I wanna learn more about them.

I love your lessons. But how many times have you painted that group of subject matter?

Stan, it seems you have already published this clip. The more I looked at it the more I remembered every single example... After checking my list, I found that the duplicate is Lesson 4 (choosing a simple subject). Does this duplication serve any purpose or is it a case of mistaken identity? Thanks for all the lessons you have published so far, I find them truly helpful, very focused and to the point.
