Mr Evans, Your teaching style is very pleasing and inviting to your students out here. I think it is because you seem relaxed and practical while clearly delighted with painting and sharing your experience. This outdoor painting is particularly fun and the practical, uncluttered way you go about is a rare treat.

The only thing I enjoy more than painting is watching YOU paint. You’re such a character...if you lived within distance, I’d have to invite you to dinner. (I’m a retired chef! ). You bring a friend, and the wine. 😉

Thank you for a Very Helpful Video! I am just 7 months into my painting life (acrylics). I am leaning into landscapes and am enjoying mixing colours. I have found your mixes esp. helpful.

I'm not familiar with brands in the UK, but look for a sunblock with titanium dioxide and zinc oxide instead of the chemical sunscreens. They are so much nicer than the others, don't cause breakouts, burn eyes, or have that slimy sticky feel. Often labelled for sensitive skin. Reapply every hour or two if in direct sun. This is what I use, every day www.neutrogena.com/products/sun/sensitive-skin-sunscreen-lotion-broad-spectrum-spf-60/6847260.html

Hi Charles, been watching you and reading your books for years. Too scared to try until now. I know this will be a very silly question to most but can you let everyone the order which you layout the acrylic colours on your pallette. Got your book "ACRYLICS FOR THE ABSOLUTE BEGINER" - great!
