Talent is just natural born fascination. Anything becomes easier to learn when it possesses many attributes you have a natural fascination for.

"Skill isn't an innate talent, but subject to... practice" Do I believe that? Well... it's simply true, by definition. Being drawn to paints might be called a talent, but learning to paint a house or a person is a skill, regardless of how long or quickly it is learned. Pick a serious, identifiable skillset. Think of the real-world infant born with that skillset... Right, they aren't born with any skillsets. They learn them. Period. As best I can tell, talent is mostly a name for commitment + success. If you are committed and fail, "he wasn't talented, poor soul". If you are committed and succeed, "well, you know, he was always talented". Can we tell the difference between someone who worked hard and achieved success, and someone who is talented and showed a gradual upward curve in success? No, or we would have done so, by now. We look at the end result and, if we like it, they were talented. If we don't, they were hacks. Was Picasso talented? Not hard to find a bunch of answers on either side.

Talent exists, hard work too. Many soccer players train very hard but there is only 1 Messi and 1 Ronaldo. They're both talented, they've both worked very hard.

Some can render subjects easily from youth, that doesn't mean others can not learn. Practice and persistence will yield results over time.

I've always been called "talented" concerning my artwork, but it is a skill you have to work very hard at, just like any other. Artists see the world differently. This is the only thing that I can really think of that might be seen as an advantage, when learning.

There is talent but it is much less important than hard work. Talent without hard work doesn't get you anywhere. 🤷🏻‍♀️

What about baby puke green?🤔

So would this apply to acrylic paint as well? It's water based would it come to life like the water paint does when it dries?

thats the scariest part of watercolor for me. I've just started. but with oil its not ever finished i can keep going for ever just effing around and ruining it a million times and finally get it to a point where i am happy...... watercolor. its done when its done. and that is confronting.

Wow gour channel has really expanded over the lastyear or so, really great to see, your teaching is very helpful And u have truly put in the effort, well done you!

Thank u, this finally clicked in my head, which is what one wants, thaat moment where it all clicks and learning a thing, is accomplished! Thanks Liron, tha nks Brain and neurons!

Great ideas, thank you. Regarding painting on an angle, how/where do you set that up? To me, it’s the first challenge.

Landscapes in impressions style and painting in surrealism style i love most

love your take! and art!

Fantastic review! ❤ I'm considering using this for opaque paint specifically. I'm not a fan of watercolor on it so much (only if it's something with high detail or non-stylized portraits) because of the lack of tooth on the paper. I bet it'd look great for smooth watercolor painting that requires no texture.

Red is the opposite of calm.

Very helpful

That's easy to say when you as an artist can just focus on painting without worrying about buying art supplies or food and rent. Just saying

Yep... this works! Very nice! Commentary and helpful hints spot on, as usual.

Using the canvas white for the seafoam was pretty cool

Absolutely CORRECT 💯 percent ❤ First of all be CONFIDENT 👍 don't let fear be exposed The magnetic trick is to command control the watercolour pigment with it's absorption ❤❤❤

Thanks for this art show of Peter's works... fantastic paintings. And... your video is really well done. Great stuff!

I think what you are describing is fulfillment rather than the commercial success that most artists seek.

Yeah thx for the guide but i might need to practice cylinder more

Spot on

Yes indeed

and learn to draw with the brush😅 Pencil for big shapes or important things and the brush for everything. Makes it a lot easier once you master the process

Beautiful car david sir and water colour

This looks like the rough sketching video I've been looking for. Does anyone know if this also works if you're using an iPad and Procreate?

Master cube mentioned

Missed this Livestream, but caught your great demo with Proko yesterday!

I love how you teach and paint. I have learned from you and appreciate you. Thank you

Liron, sorry I missed the live stream but it's great to see you here. I am happy to hear that life is going well for you.

My bad, I missed your live stream because I forgot the set my reminder notice. Congratulations to the new parents. What an exciting but busy time for you both and your family. A big Ruth adjustment for you? It's always so nice to catch up in your chill vid. Keep up the good work.

Very nice pigments. It's like they change temperature with concentration.

Thank you, Liron,for permission 😊!!

Again, Liron... you are an excellent instructor. Very, very much appreciate you sharing your hard earned expertise with all of us. Just great stuff!

Discovered you quite by chance this morning. I really enjoy the way you teach. You stand out and you inspire. I learned a lot from one video. I subscribed and I'll be back! Bravo!

No pencil and ala prima is the way to go! Nice job!

great advice.

more dark needed

Thanks Liron, top video 👍

Liron, in Bangor Maine we have social media companies that charge a monthly fee of, like $250 per month and they edit all your videos for you. Congrats, you will make a great dad💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕i love these long detailed videos. More on values please💕💕💕💕

Very educative, strong experience 😊..great job Liron 👍

@LironYan the way you paint is everything I love about watercolor. Keep up the good work

Where is your list of materials used?

Excellent work, as always.

id like to know how long he spends on each image. He could spend 6 months studying and examining and making many paintings of the same image.

this was really a very helpful video! i've been drawing for as long as i can remember but i NEVER built on the basics- so all my drawings looked super flat. tysm for this!

I always hate to edit my videos. That’s why I like live videos. No editing. I do miss your live videos. I need to mark on my calendar when to go to the other channel. I also struggle with my portraits of humans but I pray and let God guide my hand. Your painting is beautiful. I always love to hear your thoughts on the process. Thank you for taking the time to create these process videos. I do appreciate it. Enjoy your new baby and cooler weather. ❤🙏🏻
