Brasilian music is adorable!!!!!

[@EPCArtCoursesSpain]

Thank you so much

[@fabi0_sampaio]

Música brasileira 👏👏👏 com aquarela combinada demais !

[@EPCArtCoursesSpain]

The songs are both from the CD Simplesmente Maria Martha, check more about her in her Facebook page facebook.com/mariamarthabrasil/

[@EPCArtCoursesSpain]

@vjscal The singer is from Paraty, Brasil, her name is Maria Martha and this song is called Beira do Cais. Enjoy!

[@AmericanPatriot447]

Just wonderful.

[@OldBuford]

I think Alvaro's secret to painting is confidence in every stroke, tell a story and just enjoy every painting...at least thats what i gather and what i try to employ in my paintings. He is definitely one of my favorite artists and a big inspiration for the style of painting i use. If you have not him work on a compilation painting with joseph zbukvic and herman pekel, check out this link, its amazing...The Greatest Water Colour Show in the World. The Three Amigos

[@EPCArtCoursesSpain]

Thank you Forest Bum, I couldn't agree more.. And yes, I have already seen this video The Three Amigos.. Amazing! thanks for posting!

[@madhursrivastav]

Confidence ,passion and utter joy!

[@EPCArtCoursesSpain]

so pleased you like the video, Alvaro is really special, many thanks!!

[@EXTINCT19]

Brill !! effortless natural talent hands guided by angels

[@MrWatercolorguy]

Alvaro is a fantastic teacher...I was fortunate enough to taek a workshop with him and learned many new ways of painting!

[@TawdryTempest]

This guy is my new obsession. Brilliant!

[@EPCArtCoursesSpain]

Thank you!

[@maryvalliantbradbury2410]

Definitely my favourite artist.

[@EPCArtCoursesSpain]

Mary Valliant Bradbury thanks a lot

[@shirleypeters]

Alvaro is the master of tension. Large loose relaxed areas, counterbalanced by tight, detailed concentrations of interest.

[@EPCArtCoursesSpain]

Well explained!

[@milosmihajlovic1867]

Alvaro is a small toy for Dusan Djukaric, first of all Alvaro has much more experience (longer painting and older than Dusan) which is not an indicator of who is a better painter (of course Dusan, he was named by the world watercolor association among the 100 best watercolorists of all time) and the pictures show that Dusan Djukaric is currently the leading master of watercolors of today, the only drawback is that his paintings are too expensive and in addition he sold over 700 paintings in one year which is also a record, Alvaro is a top watercolorist but behind him and Zbukvica (Branko Žbukvić , a Serb father, a Croatian mother, emigrated to Australia in 1970) is Daniel Smith who has strong marketing although Zbukvic uses Schmicke because of the contract he has to advertise DS paints that are noticeably of poorer quality than Schmicke.

[@chloegrl1366]

Great love this video.........Alvaro makes it look easy........Love the music as well.

[@EPCArtCoursesSpain]

Thank you Chloe :)

[@EPCArtCoursesSpain]

@DATATRONIC2002 si, ver a Alvaro pintar te llena de una gran satisfacción y placer. Además, su gran sentido del humor cionvierte en diversión todo lo que hace.

[@oswaldomoralesperdomo2276]

Que es mejor para avanzar? Repetir el mismo tema,hasta que salga bien o cambiarlo?

[@EPCArtCoursesSpain]

Eso es muy personal, a mi me va bien repetirlo y cada vez puedo corregir algo (valores, contrastes, lavados, dibujo, etc) y así progreso mejor

[@OvermarsDaria]

Castagnet for me is one of the best impressionist in watercolour I have seen ,together maybe with Jane Corsellis and Mike Chapman, Castagnet :his name sound Italian from the Treviso area of Italy I bet his ancestor come from Italy.

[@EPCArtCoursesSpain]

No, his ancestors come from France, near the border with Basque country

[@yarmo28]

Me gosta muito a musica - and the painting too.

[@kenng329]

Beautiful... I hope you can upload more of this kind of video or is it possible to show us the entire process of this painting here. thanks

[@lapticul]

[@JackOrion0670]

[@EPCArtCoursesSpain]

hi, Alvaro uses Saunders Waterford rough 300 grs, really good paper

[@EPCArtCoursesSpain]

Hi there.. Alvaro's palette is a model made by Craig Young in the UK

[@EPCArtCoursesSpain]

Alvaro is from Uruguay I'm afraid but his wife is Argentinian from Córdoba. But all the same, he loves Argentina and goes there every so often...

[@nfrantnik]

wonderful !!!

[@neuroforce]

Many thanks for the video! Please tell me what's the title of the song starting at 3:16min. ?

[@EPCArtCoursesSpain]

Stefano Popovski it’s in the past comments, the song and all the album. Please check that, I don’t remember now

[@simknott]

Very good tutorial video ~ did Alvaro Castanet say what type and size brushes he uses ?

[@EPCArtCoursesSpain]

Usually big brushes, small paper. That's the rule

[@EPCArtCoursesSpain]

No, Castagnet comes from the south of France near the Basque Country, in Spain. Western Pyrenees

[@MySpace662]

Having his confidence is what we lack, the rest will follow if we had it.

[@EPCArtCoursesSpain]

I agree with you, but he works daily and also made many wrong paintings before having this confidence too! 😉

[@duducan100]

Angela， do you know the name of the background song ? So good!

[@EPCArtCoursesSpain]

No sorry, not that particular song, maybe you can check Spotify or her Facebook: facebook.com/mariamarthabrasil/

[@omaracosta1264]

Porque se hace el australiano si es yorugua? 😂 capo Alvaro!

[@andrecardon2141]

Y ya no hay mas pintores previstos en 2021 ?

[@EPCArtCoursesSpain]

Es un poco difícil con la pandemia programarse…

[@EPCArtCoursesSpain]

@dkw12002 Yes, really professional, actually one of the best painters, he uses W&N or Holbein

@epcartcourses I think, it's rather the song "desafinado" from Joao Gilberto, but i don't know this woman singer

[@ulkubars4561]

Do you know who the music in the video belongs to?

[@franniegoldsmith99]

@Peterpanbira thank you so much!

[@FuxiYog]

@FuxiYog no,sorry, ilt's "desafinado" from Antonio Carlos Jobim, and maybe it's Gal Costa who is singing... maybe...

[@EPCArtCoursesSpain]

No, it's not desafinado and Maria Marta from Paraty is singing

[@xolarwind]

What's the name of the song and the singer in the introduction, and after minute 3:18?

[@EPCArtCoursesSpain]

You’ve got her name beliw, cannot remember which song exactly but you can listen to her CD

[@xolarwind]

[@gristmill4610]

Castagnet is Argentinian. He was tutored as a youth by a famous painter in Argentina.

[@miguelangelbiabianchi3476]

Alvaro Castagnet es URUGUAYO. Comenzó su aprendizaje de acuarela con el Maestro Esteban Garino y luego vivió por años en Australia donde trabajó y creció junto a famosos acuarelistas. Retornó a Uruguay porque extrañaba caminar por las calles de Montevideo e ir los fines de semana a ver a su equipo de fútbol favorito, el Club Atlético Peñarol

[@sergioalvarez7908]

Alguém poderia me informar qual é essse estojo de aquarela que o Alvaro utiliza ?? Obrigado . What is this of watercolor box used by Alvaro Castagnet ? Thank you.

Esta é a letra da música, porém não consegui descobrir quem canta, nem o nome da música .Em portugues e em ingles, espero ter ajudado. This is the lyrics, but could not figure out who sings, not the name of the song. In Portuguese and in English, I have helped. Amanhã, Outra vez, o certo é amanhã. Como sempre a beira do cais. Sem você adormeço olhando navios. Pode ser, muito mais feliz, Amanhã. Por aqui , navegando em curso de fé. Por Alá, Por ali, Pelas ondas do mar me quer. Bem ali, Mas o teu sorriso mudou. Meu amor, meu destino perdido ao léo . Se você quer provar do mundo o melhor, Eu também, somos filhos do mesmo sol. Para viver, sorrir e cantar, É bem melhor duas vozes na mesma canção. Larrala , e um gemido isolado e então . . . Como se vê, entre rimas e sons, E prosseguir no oceano livre enfim . Vou navegar pelo brilho do seu olhar, Luz do farol, Que tornou possível esse mar, Meu violão, acompanha o sentido, nessa canção, Que saiu da beira do cais. Amanhã, de manhã estarei eterno, Estarei no mar . Tomorrow, Again, it is certain tomorrow. As always the edge of the dock. Without you fall asleep looking ships. It can be much happier, Tomorrow. Here, sailing in the course of faith. By Allah, Over there, By the waves want me. Right there, But your smile changed. My love, my destiny lost to Léo. If you want to taste the world's best, I too, are children of the same sun. To live, laugh and sing, It is better two voices in the same song. Larrala, and a single groan and then. . . As you see, between rhymes and sounds, And continue the free ocean anyway. I will navigate the brightness of her gaze, Light lighthouse, Which made possible this sea, My guitar, accompanying the sense that song, That left the quayside. Tomorrow morning will be eternal, I'll be at sea.

[@johngarry9689]

alvaro est un génie un peu pathétique, il se la joue anglais alors qu'ils parle couramment espagnol comme l'ont parlé ses parents et toute sa famille puisqu'il vient d'un pays sud-américain dont je tairais le nom ! pauvre monsieur c'est pathétique de se comporter de la sorte !

[@EPCArtCoursesSpain]

Merci! C'est seulement qu'il donne la majorité de ses stages en anglais, il a vécu en Australie beaucoup de temps aussi. Il parle en espagnol avec ses eleves espagnols bien sur. C'est bon de parler plusieres langes, n'est pas? :)
