Really loved this video and learning about your process. Do you have anything that goes into how you came up with the original drawing/ painting that you began this video with? Would love to try something along these lines.

I don't have a video on how I began this drawing. I started with blind contour drawings to loosen up, then kept this loose approach in building up layers of line, not worrying too much about making them very accurate.

I really love this. Would have liked to see how you finished the painting, the difference between the end of the video and the finished work is big.

thanks -- unfortunately, I didn't film the resolution of this but there is another short video abstracting landscape 2 in which I explain some of my decisions as I finished it.

Hi Alison….I realize this video is 3 yrs old…But there is no age to art and learning. I love your videos….you take time…explain and your work is beautiful. This video has shown me so many techniques…….some I already knew but seeing how YOU use them makes a huge difference. The masking product used with glazing is wonderful. So helpful!! Paint transfer…I know….but as it was presented here it came across knew to me. I love it all…you video…your help has given me new feeling to my art. Thank you so much. Now I’ll watch your other videos and be inspired!!❤❤🤗🤗 Charlotte

I liked the red! You aren't finished yet so I don't know what you'll do, but I kept thinking of Iron oxide. I love earthy rusts, reds and blacks w/ off whites, greys, etc. Yes! That is gorgeous!! Love the finished piece!

I have recently ‘discovered’ you and am enjoying watching your videos. I really like both your style of painting and how you teach. Have you made another video showing the next steps in these sunflower paintings? Or maybe you’ve got a photo of the finished paintings…? Thanks in advance for any info you can give me.

@celestepfister589Ай бұрын
I like a roller tool also, but I think I prefer a brayer. Brayers are rubber, don't absorb the paint so don't need reloading as often. Of course, also give a different texture. Thanks for this video--I enjoy your teaching style, ideas and process.

Joan, I cannot thank you enough! I’ve always wanted to be an artist. My parents were quite discouraging and having grown up in a dysfunctional home. I just really didn’t have the wear with All to pursue that. So here I am at a very young 67 I have the time to paint and I have been painting. I love abstract, and I’m so delighted to come apart upon you. You have a wonderful teaching method. Sharing the rationale behind your actions can’t thank you enough truly you’ve changed the course of my development as an artist.

You've given me so many things to try! I love this! By the way, did you ever try turning the painting upside down now and then? Might find some more hidden treasures that way. (Not that this needs improvement in any way.) Thanks for the great tutorial!
