Whoah man ! If only I could give you a double like...your paintings are so amazing and realistic

[@raniyuna2930]

If I see your art, I feel everytime like a loser.🙈❤👌 It's so much beautiful! I wanna take one day such level of experience.

[@thatgirlray2765]

Maybe focus on writing class before you take up painting...

[@yingmei_tao]

mahoraner niall Your “writing” doesn’t slap either buddy.

[@thatgirlray2765]

Patricia Tang hey at least I didn’t say “so much beautiful”

[@yingmei_tao]

mahoraner niall English isn’t everyone’s first language and what is wrong with a grammar mistake? Nothing. She was just appreciating art and you had no reason to comment your bs. Maybe focus on common curtesy class before you take up writing a comment.

Slow the video down when you're watching it helps get some tips on brush work :)

That moment when your painting is more realistic than real grass

[@dhruvjain5166]

Because of your tutorials I am able to take my skills to next level Never stop posting videos

[@Twinniekin]

Wow, I'm about to paint a lot of grass in the foreground of a painting and am very grateful for your video. I am an amateur painter, retired woman of 71 years and have successfully sold several paintings to date. However, I suffer from serious stress and have realised after watching your content, I seem to relax a lot. Not only do you teach me to paint but your calm way of showing how you work has a double positive impression on me which is amazing. Thank you so much Michael! Keep these videos rolling!

[@panchusart4407]

superb I like your painting

+Michael James Smith Hi Michael, I am struggling to get the very thin lines when painting grass. I have tried with small brushes like yours and are painting very carefully as you do in the video, but the lines don't get thin and smooth. I bought different brushes to test, but ends up with same result. Any tips?

[@janagagnon3943]

He uses a very light touch with his liner brushes

As good as your grass and trees are, the green of your river makes me want to get a running start and dive in. You've absolutely nailed it for me. Thanks for posting your videos.

[@paintingartworkssculpturem8534]

Superb

[@kamrunnaharsristy4892]

I love your drawings. They are so realistic. But as a beginner I need to copy someone's drawing. But if you do time lapse I can't copy it properly please do real time drawing

[@terristokes7446]

The technique you do with brush marks of long stalks was so helpful. Thankyou!

[@katbot2190]

Which yellow and blue make that pretty light green grass? OH WOW, you use a strainer for cleaning your brushes. cool

[@Medizor79]

Hello. Excuse-me for my surely stupid question but ... would you think it's possible to do the same with acrylics painting ? I know that acrylics could be used "like" oil paint but I suppose it is not exactly the same and I'm still not able to know the differences. I like your videos very much. I feel a lot of things when I watch your work

[@janetlunnon603]

That's just what I was going to ask can these techniques be applied to acrylics? I love watching your videos.

[@0mariom]

Similar effects can be achieved by using acrylic mediums (i.e. Slow dryers) but you have to bear in mind that acrylics and oils are different in nature, therefore not all techniques can be replicated exactly.

[@javiermontaque683]

This must be the only man alive who knows exactly how many individual blades of grass are in a meadow and can paint thing in one blade at a time

[@kumarirakhi6096]

Your process are too good sir... You r great teacher... Bahut bahut aabhar hai sir aapka... Thank you sir.

What brush and brush size do you use for the fine details for the grass.

[@DavidSoekana]

Wow!! good tutorial Michael James Smith I love it (because I'm also a art painter)

[@DazzlingAction]

How you make those dots of paint into flowers hurts my brain

[@zerrindanyldz7326]

Harikasınız 😍 sizden ders almak isterdim ama mümkün değil Türkiye de yaşıyorum 🌹👍

[@nicoleavmars]

Does the strength of the brush matter to do the details?

[@AndersJohansson]

Hello Michael. Love your videos. Question: When you paint a landscape for example, then you can add small details in infinity i think. "A little straw here, a leaf there..." So when do you decide: "Now im totally finished with this!" ?

[@ramiravaz1889]

Gostaria de saber qual diluente que você usa? Parabéns pois vc é um grande artista. Amo as suas pinturas. Eu estou começando à pintar a minha primeira tela de paisagem, e tenho me espelhado em vc. Muito obrigado pelos vídeos!👏👏👏👏

[@agradoville]

Could step right into that one James.....WOW! I am continually amazed at the amount of detail you put into these. Such a joy to watch you paint.

[@melaniailiuk779]

How long did it take you to paint the grass

[@rockartgeorge]

Hello Michael. Your work is a great help, maybe greater than you think... despite the eventual weak feedback. We have not heard from you in a while. What are you working on? The question is not meant to be indiscreet, interested though. See you online soon? Do you feel pressure? Please don’t. I’m just tickling the lion’s rib with the tip of the brush. Keep up the good work.

[@rzrr41]

Wow your grasses are amazing but when you put on those yellow flowers if like magic..like Im ouside on the field...gracias...

[@MichaelJamesSmith]

I’m getting back in to KZbin this month. Had a few issues with someone that has prevented me from feeling inspired.

[@callmeishmel]

@@MichaelJamesSmith I can identify with that, it's hard to feel creative when drama and negativity drain your energy. Sending blessings and light. This too will pass!!

[@unrealone1]

Some Australian trees, great to see you paint these in a landscape.

[@jamesmcdaniel6779]

I’m impressed! Good job!

[@gspurlock1118]

This is sort of off topic, but sometime when you have a little free time and are in need of grunt work, it would be great to have a play list of some of your favorite music artists. I've never heard most of the background music that you play, but I really enjoy it.

[@tatifora7098]

Hi there Michael. I am new to your channel. Would it be possible for you to do a video about when to use liquin and when to use thinner when painting in oil? Also when is painting dry requiring oiling out? Can you use thinner on top of a layer that has been thinned out with liquin? Does this layer need to be dry completely? Thank you

[@tyxas259]

❤️❤️❤️❤️

[@randyclarke4200]

When painting your grass what if any medium are you using? I have trouble getting these thin lines and have tried multiple brushes.

[@roqiaheitham8837]

Please do a video in which we learned how to clean Balaita colors🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻💔

[@randybird9979]

is this acrylic or oil paint?

[@highphysics3617]

Why do you ruin a good tutorial with the persistent irritating background music??? I want to concentrate on the painting,NOT listen to music! Less fast forward would be better too. I've switched off...

[@MichaelJamesSmith]

I put a lot of effort in to these free videos. Sorry they don’t meet your high standards.

[@highphysics3617]

@@MichaelJamesSmith I'm sure you do,but trying follow what you are doing with the grass at about 9-37,is almost impossible with the time lapse in addition to the {bit too loud background"music"}. It's shame because I'm trying to learn from what you are doing, with the grass.

[@highphysics3617]

@@MichaelJamesSmith Quite by accident I came across another of your videos "#5 How to paint grass /Oil Painting...." This is perfect for my project. I'm part way through a painting of a small group of my sheep,and,just could not get the surrounding grass right. This video is just what I need. Sorry for my impatience yesterday born out of frustration. You instruction IS GREAT.

[@nikkiswenson54]

Awesome to watch!!!

[@ClodsCreations]

Sir Smith ... Love n respect ur videos. I've been catching up on the time lines and plan on joining your online school. In the meantime, I have a question. Do you ever create a "couch" or oil the canvas prior to applying the paints? I've purchased the paints on list and the Rosemary and Co brushes and now playing with technique. I find applying the paints quite odd, you might say. I noticed you do use medium and thinner now and then but not much. Am I doing something wrong? Or is just the Oklahoma environment? Lol Cheers.
