Been meaning to film this tutorial for the looongest time! With us entering the new year and all, thought it was bout bluddy time! How has the first month of everyone's year been?

We all missed u!! Hope ur having a good day!!

Watching this video is like meeting an old friend. Glad to hear from you again, Hieu!

This ain't just watercolor tutorial- IT'S A THERAPY❤

holy shttt im cryingggggg....hieuuuu.....(hey you!). im so you're backkkkkk we misss youu.....

Everyone studying the video rn like : 👁👄👁

Finally he remembered he has a channel!!!!

Just a quick tip for those who are new... Paper with smoother surfaces or glue glazes (such as Canson Monval) can be much more difficult to get a smooth wash if you haven't had much experience in handling water, as water runs more haphazardly on those surfaces. In the video, the patches on the wash slowly disappear as the paper dry, because the paint distribute quite easily. But on a smoother surface, that's not the case. Also, smooth paper tends to leave harder edges, more extreme cauliflower effects, and watermarks everywhere. So I suggest experimenting with a few types of paper, or watch carefully the videos which review them. If you are going for an acute watercolor effect for your work, and you have a little bit more experience, then smooth paper or glue glazed paper can be very interesting and fun to work with.

My literally dropped when I saw a notification for this video. We all missed you!!!

Weve all missed you!! Hope you're all good and glad you're back!!

I'm not saying this to flatter you, but you're the reason why I started to paint with watercolors a few months ago... SO THANK YOU

It's always a pleasure to see your videos, full of art and joy, but it's more pleasure to see you well and having a great time painting. I'm really happy to know that you're getting better, but if you need time to relax and heal, take your time; I'm a big fan of yours, so don't you feel bad for not uploading a video when you're not in the mood. Be calm, be happy, be good with yourself.

You’re definitely forgiven!! Glad you have you back!! Love this video.

Found your channel a week or two ago as I was getting into watercolours, so glad you're back as I've watched almost everything already 😂

Happy I found you today. I will do this to learn. Thank-you

I love your voice, and I love your art! Your watercolor tutorials make me so excited about this medium (and I love it sm but I'm terrified of it cause it can get ruined so fast) so thank you for uploading these!

For someone whos been doing watercolor for years, I really enjoy how digestible and organized this video is. I think its great that you covered such an array of techniques and pointers, and some of the techniques you mentioned I could never really put into exact words. Definitely going to recommend this video to my friends who want to start watercolors :)

So glad to see you back on YT! That's funny a couple months ago I've started watercolor and your video on wet on dry technique taught me a lot. For a couple of weeks I've been experimenting wet on wet and with this video you've confirmed what I thought I understood, that's now much clearer thanks !

Left a comment about this on how you achieved the effect your last piece, so glad you made this tutorial thank you! You made this SO easy to understand and follow along with. Thank you for sharing your knowledge, washes have always been my biggest issue, especially on larger pieces, this was genuinely so helpful! 🙏

It's good to see you man ! 🎉

Oh my god I missed your videos SO MUCH. I got so excited when I saw this had been posted. Would love to see more videos of you creating originals or working on things that interest you in general!

good to see you back...my cool teacher

Missed you! Thank you for this beautiful & helpful tutorial! 🔆

Love the new wooden table top :)))

I missed you so much, wow, I’ve been watching your sketchbook tours, like, every week!!

Missed your uploads! Welcome back!!!

Omg, you're finally back! So happy to see your tutorials again

glad to see you back !! Happy new year !

So glad you're back! You are a fantastic teacher! I would love to see a colour theory/colour mixing video!

This was so helpful! I can tell you put a ton of time into editing your footage (that Damp I/II/III split) and it makes a difference!

you're my FAVE artist period.

Noiiiiiiiis!!! I'm keen to try all of these techniques

welcome baaackkkk we missed youu

this video totally made my 2021 already

FINALLY ! YOU'RE BACK !

This is rlly fun, even when I was back in art class it was more of a follow you’re own projects and the teachers would give advice, tips and direction. Which was rlly freeing and great, but it’s nice to be given some simple exercises to practice and seeing some nice results

So happy that you're back ☺️☺️💜💜

Thanks for coming back! I love your voice and your artwork.

The painting has something so nostalgic to it I cant explain

Good to see your videos again.
