You're such an amazing artist, that I very much doubt there is anything you can't paint. You've nailed it with the glass vase. Gorgeous colours throughout. Thank you for sharing.

[@ArtbyPaulClark]

Thanks so much 😊

[@robinwashburn8804]

Thanks so much! I've wondered about reflection. Thank you for your willingness to exit your comfort zone to teach! You are, indeed, such a blessing!

[@ArtbyPaulClark]

My pleasure Robin!

[@savithriragavan549]

[@sherryburnett6088]

Bravo! What a beautiful glass vase and painting.

[@ArtbyPaulClark]

Thanks so much!

[@arielwind04]

I believe watercolor is the best media to express literally transparent subject like glass, water, atmosphere and even human skin(sun light slightly penetrate the skin). Thanks for showing us the beauty of watercolor as always 🌷

[@ArtbyPaulClark]

I totally agree!

[@lanahughes5254]

Welcome back. I can't wait to try this one. I learn so much from you. Hope you had a memorable birthday.

[@maryballesteros1179]

Can’t wait to try it. Thank you Paul!

[@ArtbyPaulClark]

Hope you enjoy

[@eirenmist12]

Well, your painted glass certainly is not half full! 😊 It was very helpful to watch you make the glass appear to be transparent and "glassy." I think perhaps the flower to the left of the tulip in the vase is a ranunculus rather than a rose, not that it matters. It's all beautifully done.

[@ArtbyPaulClark]

Thanks so much! 😊 ... and for the ranunculus!

[@Michael-lq5di]

This has inspired me to paint flowers 🌷 thanks Paul

[@Michael-lq5di]

As well as the vase

[@wendyleader8905]

[@ArtbyPaulClark]

Thanks Anne!

[@pascalebeguin-lawler4829]

Hello Paul from Oregon, although I am French. Thank you for this great tutorial again. The transparency of the vase is amazing. I guess the color of the vase is not opaque to be able to get that effect. So beautiful and you always make it look so easy to do. You are such a talented artist! Thanks you!

[@ArtbyPaulClark]

Thanks so much!!

[@dhags5]

Thank you for your time and very helpful TIPS on how to accomplish effects with the brush and water!! The "fuzzy" or distorted stems in the vase do look like they are in water!! Thank you for admitting that even you have some challenges when it coms to painting certain subjects! I do love the colors and especially the color in the vase! Take care of yourself. You and Margot have an incredible Wednesday!! :0)

[@ArtbyPaulClark]

Thanks as always Janell!

[@adelebader5373]

This was lovely and a pleasure to watch. My class last week was a glass vase with flowers in it. Lol But I went for very loose. Like abstract loose. 😊 everyone enjoyed it. I’ll be sharing this tutorial with them so they can practice something more challenging. As always I’m grateful for Wednesdays and your faithful videos. Keeping you in my prayers and hope you are feeling stronger and stronger each day. Much love from Alabama. ❤
