hello my old friend .it is many years ago when I watched your gubbins. (love it) .... I am ninety one years old next week and still I love to watch our Charles ,, because I will learn more watercolour tricks and ideas from Charles .. ( I have a family of Charles's . ) I have never tried pencils but he has shown me how and just how good he is using them

[@Lyn-t9k9y]

Great lessons…appreciate the anecdotes as you work through the lesson. These are very informative…learning much more than just scratching a pencil on the paper.

Your comments about black reminded me of the song lyric, 'black is black, want my baby back, grey is grey since she went away' I do love your tutorials

[@Mr.Dziej72]

Wonderful to see him and his brilliant teaching in action. I've owned his book for years -- he makes it very easy.

Any rough and thick paper will do, you can use watercolour pads also
