87 ECONOMY OF BRUSH STROKES

I prefer to simplify a painting instead of painting a simple subject. To simplify I chose a tiny painting size, a large brush and limited palette. Later in the video I explain you why and how this worked out.

Friday afternoon is not complete with out one of you videos! The windmill with the reflection in the canal was beautiful. As always I really enjoy your work.

Thank you for sharing...your work is beautiful! I paint in oils but you have inspired me to try water color....long island, NY.

Maybe mat in white with square light wood simple frame. Make prints! Charming. And I loved your simple abstract strokes.

Hello Titus: thank you for another concise video. You are a great teacher in that you are very informative in your videos and since I love watercolor I'm trying to grasp as much as I can from your insight and demonstrations. The implement you use to draw with seems like a nice one, but I was wondering how you sharpen it. 🖌

[@TitusMeeuws]

Thanks, the pencil doesn’t need to be sharpen, it is a mechanical pencil. So it is always sharp! That’s why I love it

Hi Titus! I gotta say, there's a nice ASMR quality to the sound of your sketching. Speaking of... I find it incredible how good your sketching is. Nice work again, both painting and vid. Cheers! PS on the subject of painting windmills.. coming from NL, I totally get you (it's nearly too much of a cliché, no?). But on the other hand, isn't a cliché per definition a social construct? Shouldn't we as artists (and I use 'we' loosely here: obviously we are not in the same league) think: sod public opinion... this is just a cool image and I want to paint it?

[@paintingsofwaves_mikewoning]

PPS the outro of the vid was super melancholic... the lonley piano combined with the murmeration of birds, signalling the end of summer... [sigh]. I guess I should focus on the coming of beautiful skies and light in the coming season but still, how time flies.

[@TitusMeeuws]

Hi Mike. Sure, I feel always free to chose any subject although it makes me feel sure to realize a mill could be a cliche. But it still can be a unique new painting! The autumn skies are wonderful and the end of summer/beginning of the next season is exiting

Would love an above view of you painting. Maybe mount a camera above your table.
