Your videos are not only incredibly informative and inspiring, they are also very relaxing to watch. I don't know how to explain it but they are very therapeutic.

[@user-hl2yg2yz3j]

Hi Stuart, you explain the concept of composition and atmospheric perspective better then any artist that I’ve ever been exposed to.

[@marypartridge5154]

Yes Stuart you are a master at what you do. You paint with such ease and I would love to come to France to learn from you. From Mary Ann and Bicky Queensland Australia.

[@marypartridge5154]

😅Stuart I look at the Danish painter online. I think you would like her use of colour and modern approach to landscapes.

[@Dollightful]

You make it look so easy! You're incredible.

[@robindupont6399]

Please keep talking. I'm 72 and have looked for an accomplished teacher most of my life. I learn so much by listening to you as you paint. Maybe you could box your tutorials and provide them to schools as painting instruction / art therapy. Your voice is calming, your words clever and reassuring, your instruction--brilliant. This former little girl would have thrived as a budding artist if her school had provided instruction of your caliber and sensitivity. Sort of a Mr. Rogers of painting. Just an idea. Thank you so much for caring for your students.

[@MiaRose878]

It is so good to see you back again.Absolutely made my day . Thankyou. Mia 🇬🇧

[@marthasierra7801]

Wonderful! I love it!!!!…..thanks so much for the class……

[@cheryrobertson2735]

I watched and enjoyed the entire session. I like it when you mention your cat.

[@mariokirshner7743]

Teacher, to thank you as always for your teachings, blessings to you and your family, hugs. Mario Kirshner

[@joeyslabbert7388]

Thank you so much Stuart! Keep well.

[@elainepettit2292]

I always watch your terrific videos right to the end but sometimes nod off for a moment or two in the middle, not from boredom but because you have such a wonderful soothing voice. Maybe you could drop a brush now and then, or give a yell for people like me!

[@lindadeavers8875]

Thank you Mr. Davis, I have been watching you for a long time. You’re a great teacher!

[@trevormilner455]

About time too. 😂😂😂😂

[@user-wf5vb8je1d]

Stuart you are a Great Artist 👍🙏

[@brendahild545]

Stuart, I am so excited to find you on KZbin. I have been looking fir someone who could explain how to work loosely, and to make it look do simple. I know it want be as simple to me as it looks for you. I love your clouds!! Brenda… Texas

[@marie-laurerousselot8741]

Thank you Stuart et "bravo" With you "je voyage dans vos paysages fascinants". Merci

[@deborahpeterson7743]

Enjoying your technique, very informative !

[@marypartridge5154]

Hello Stuart So glad you are back.

[@bjay8695]

Thank you for such inspiration. You are a wonderful teacher. Wish I could join you in person. Maybe one day, one never knows

[@anujdubey7324]

Yeah...really happy to see u posting video on youtube after long time. Really enjoy and learn a lot from it

[@jefff2244]

I truly enjoyed your painting and perspective on art and life.

[@clydeletreta6325]

How's this Stuart, after I watch this whole tutorial, I'll watch it again, then in the morning I'll watch it again....its called retirement, hahaha! 🤙Aloha brother!🙏🤙❤️ Because of you, I'm a much better artist with better direction with my work...thanks again.

[@run-paint-draw]

I hope you get better ASAP, thanks for share your FANTASTIC work with us.

[@di4237]

Really good to see you back, hope your health keeps improving. This painting looks great as it is, but you mentioned having a second session with it, what, I wonder, are you planning. Can't wait to find out, you have me intrigued. Lovely work, Stuart. Thank you for sharing.

[@andrewhulett6397]

Always an inspiration sir. Thank you from Florida!

[@dorinases]

Thank you for the amazing videos so well explained , you are one of my favorites :)

[@rhondaadams4013]

This one's beautiful. I love it!

[@sky-frequency]

thank you so much, such a gentle yet thorough and knowledgeable painter you are. beautiful landscape. Parts of it remind me of Corot. I love Corot's work

[@cynthiaschorr553]

Must add, another comment, yet again; ha - my brain talks to itself too, You make me laugh. 😊 I can use some laughs. I adore how you just taught (& mentioned “blobbery”) how to paint the trees as they turn a corner up on knoll. Thanks.

[@liselottejonsson2547]

I'm a newbie who got hooked on your unpretentious way of painting and talking meanwhile. I really like the way you make us feel that it's not difficult and that we all can paint. Thanks for your videos.🫶

[@sukihitz291]

Love this revisit of “The Illusion of Detail”…glad to see you back and feeling better. Looking forward to the next video!💚💚💚

[@StuartDavies]

Thanks so much!

[@pjjmsn]

Great to revisit "The Illusion of Detail" painting again! It was the first video I watched of yours that started me on my painting journey! Both versions are amazing! BTW, Winnie the Poo makes up of some of my earliest memories - about 3 years old. I was quite a fan!

[@mickietimmons-tg2ew]

Thank you, thank you. I am so addicted to your technique and will be watching all the rest of your videos. I have learned so much from your teaching and, hopefully, I can apply your approach to rectify my realistic style of painting.

[@user-ib1xi7ut9b]

I enjoyed your video every second two times a big thankyou

[@hilliardkrecker1729]

So often when these landscapes start I see perfect dunes in the hills. When it's just the green and white.

[@nancyrogers8056]

Thank you for this wonderful informative video!

[@MrBoudarbala]

only question of time and I am ready to start painting like you.

[@katherandefy]

Hi and hello Stuart! 🎉 good to see you and glad to hear you are busy. Awesome painting as always.

[@loettafriedemann3727]

I enjoy watching you paint very much. I hope to someday having a space I can try your process. Right now I'm doing watercolors.

[@jakes9708]

Always enjoyable.

[@Shooketh__]

33:19 no! I always watch till the end! Love your sense of humor by the way haha!

[@sallyalter6003]

I am getting a good old giggle here because I was born in the south of London and speak exactly the same way as you. You are quite correct nobody else on the planet says there a's like we do. A for bath.

[@robertblalock3857]

Missed you Stuart!

[@tanakeilidh384]

I always enjoy your videos. Glad you're feeling better and doing what you love.

[@jeffreyscott4564]

Stuart, You helped me so immensely in sky work. I'm forever in debt for your sharing your technique.

[@StuartDavies]

Glad to help!

[@black-and-light]

Glad to see you again, Stuart. Great piece of Artwork. I love how it came out. Thank you for sharing.

[@geraldinestrong8829]

I am fascinated by your style of painting, so happy I found you today😊

[@poetryjones7946]

Thank you. My cloud shapes get really OCD repetitive, so false looking. This is very helpful, thanks. 🙏🏼🌹

[@anncinderey9797]

Hi Stuart, I always watch to the end. I love your work, so does my wife. Very special, as always!

[@francinedaime1784]

Re-re-re bonjour (bonsoir) bien sur que nous sommes toujours là, même si votre vidéo fesait 3 heures, nous la regarderions jusqu'au bout. Tellement inspirants vos commentaires. A bientôt

[@dorinases]

Thank you Stuart I love how you teach :)

[@ChobertonJunction]

Total inspiration to all who visit your channel. Thank you.

[@cynthiaschorr553]

🪷“More red to the green, at the bottom” you’d said. At that point of video the painting became ethereal looking. Just BEAUTIFUL! Invaluable - is your ability to teach. Blessing you Stuart with restored full-good health. And peace of ❤. Keep on shining. 🪷 P.S. From the drone shot you so cleverly shared, it looks as if your studio is situated on a heart shaped lay-of-the-land. Sweet. Cynthia Laguna Beach, California

[@patsyeckert9822]

Thank you for another great painting experience! Enjoyed it! Hope you will continue to feel better!👍🙂

[@StuartDavies]

Thanks so much 😊

[@janerayner6375]

Love the still image on this it really shows how much non-detail there is. Looking forward to part 2.

[@kayakiranana6059]

Love this lesson. Beautiful work. Come back soon.☺️

[@connorhughes1990]

Great painting Stuart. Always good fun to watch. Stay well

[@vlarralv]

🥰 Thank you so much for your generosity 🥰

[@clydeletreta6325]

Amazing what a few strokes can do for distance! Learned something new, and yes, I'm still watching.😊

[@raygarlick7385]

Great video, never get bored top work🎨

[@lcmr8050]

6/26/23 So happy to see painting I haven’t seen before. I hope you are well. I really feel better after watching you. Very mellow. Relaxed. Love the wonderment I feel when watching you work. Explain more about the 3-day event you spoke about. Thanks so much for all you do. Love the sky here. Amazing. Take care of yourself!!

[@barbarahuff117]

Thanks much, teach.

[@trevormilner455]

Great. Can’t wait to have a go at it. 👏👏👏

[@arhodes2866]

Thank you.

[@maxboonkittypoison]

I enjoyed that. Hope there wil be a part 2 ;)

[@StuartDavies]

Working on it!

[@isculpt4u]

I always was taught that never have 2 objects. I should always be 3.. Hmmmmmm? Love your lessons.

[@paulyb58]

another good one Stuart i am going to use this as a basis for my next painting

[@carolgivati7372]

Always look forward to your videos aa there is always something to learn.. i may have to stop halfway and come back later, things to do but always watch to the end and often rewatch. ( if thats a word😁😆😅). But no place to like a second or third time.

[@isculpt4u]

Your a very logical artist.. Bravo

[@terrencekazi]

Amazing

[@NickRatto]

I know it’s easy , it is and it’s not , I sure am glad to hear from your tube channels, each time it’s coming to me I’m still a little bit afraid of the scribble with a mass of paint I’m getting closer thanks for your minds ideas it helps in so many ways this strong blend oil to paint is still a problem,now how’s your Cat

[@healingsongsduo7375]

Grande!

[@jeffweinman2626]

Stuart, thank you for your incredible style of communication... you are guiding me in a direction I never thought I could achieve.... and I would be cheating myself if I didn't watch your videos to the end!! Jeff

[@dshepherd107]

So good to see a new video from you! I saw the thumbnail, & assumed that was the final result from the video. It appears to be the same painting. I’m wondering, & hoping there’s a Part II demonstrating how you achieved that?

[@PegAMurphy]

loved the video & your technique I could watch all day

[@MuskegonRose]

Great demo as usual.

[@cynthiaschorr553]

It looks gorgeous, just at 1/2 point. What a find are you. I envision myself at one of your “painting camps” (I just made that phrase up) in my future.

[@hitdorf1]

Danke!

[@StuartDavies]

Thank you!

[@marthasierra7801]

👏👏👏👏👏👏👏

[@rebeccaparrish2314]

I watch you on my tv and have learned so much. I take notes and have bought your simple materials. Ready to start! Can I loosen up? That’s the big question!

[@jeffsayer2888]

Hi Stuart great to have you back, love this painting, do you ever do an under painting and if so would you use acrylic

[@StuartDavies]

Hi Jeff, no, I don't do any underpainting and I never use acrylics.

[@Paul-su3qh]

Hello again Stuart, glad to hear that your feeling better again. Hope this lovely sunny weather is more conducive to your good health. I really love this wonderful landscape as it is so far. I say so far, because I know from following your tutorials and demos that you will upgrade the tonal values of this beautiful landscape, by adding yet more values to your personal satisfaction. As always dear friend, brilliant execution of your style and commentary and advice. You always have tips for your viewers about what one can do and sometimes shouldn't do, unless it works for the scene created. By the way Stuart, I wonder where you purchase that really lovely colour of Royal Blue and also the Japanese Red that I know are two of your favourite colours. I really love to see these colours in your artwork and their vibrancy and opaqueness is just so eye catching that I too would like to purchase these. I have not found them anywhere locally in Hampshire for some reason. Perhaps I should try online and see if they are available in the UK. Anyway, I really love your artworks and the dramatic sky variations that you create, but cannot help but wonder if you ever exhibit your work in galleries here in England or if you even tour your artworks. I believe that your paintings are your legacy and it would be fantastic to see all your works displayed in dedication to your creative lifestyle and life works. I also found your Turneresque painting to be a truly excellent rendition of that old master. Thank you for sharing all that you do as a master in your own right. Take care and stay well. Looking forward to part two and more. 👀😊 👍🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿🇬🇧👋

[@lisalynch629]

So good to be and learn with you,I worry you’re in pain

[@marthasierra7801]

Mr Davies, I’d like to know when will have your three days classes in France. Tks.

[@StuartDavies]

If you're thinking of taking lessons here, you choose the dates.

[@anncinderey9797]

After you got rid of the face you saw in the sky, i still saw 2 eyes in the clouds. Sorry...Paul.🙃

[@soniabrickell4268]

Just to ask if you go back to the painting to add more layers do you add more oil ,practicing the fat over lean .If so would that be linseed oil ? Thank you

[@PromodhSridhar]

Pls do a ship for me .. I would like to see how you do that if possible- Thanks

[@mariannegjelsten1711]

Lovely painting😍 i see you paint on a wood. I only have canvas..is it possible to fix the lovelig effect in canvas? Or is it more difficult? I cant move the paint like you do

[@StuartDavies]

I can only answer your question when I know what a 'lovelig' is!

[@mariannegjelsten1711]

Sorry..🙈 i'm from norway and my english is not good..lovely, beautiful i meen. I want to say a lot of good things about your paintings..but english is not good

[@user-hl2yg2yz3j]

I’m still viewing. Lol

[@lynnbarker1019]

When you say that you may glaze with light green. Does that include the sky as well?

[@StuartDavies]

No just the land. I'll be working on this one soon.

[@mariemaislinger5699]

Hi Stuart! Just a question. When you added the brown tone in, was it pure red ochre mixing on top of the blue, as you mentioned rust. Just curious if that was a mix on your palette before board or just tones mixing together on board to create the brown.

[@StuartDavies]

It was pure red ochre, but with quite a lot of oil.

[@mariemaislinger5699]

Having my morning coffee with you again Stuart. My husband is off climbing a Mountain so I have me time with Stuart..haha. Anyway, seriously thanks for answering my questions. Regarding your Board that you are painting on, do you seal the wood in some way before putting the gesso layers on? @@StuartDavies

[@Audion]

Making a comment as my commander wishes. 😂

[@BazzSelby]

I was still with ya, at 33:19, and until the end! Loved the bit at the 52 minute mark, as the horizon looks miles away! And, as the trees on the distant mound, dictate the size of the trees in the middle & foreground, the 2 'trees' you added at 1:5:00, are too small. I wasn't going to say anything, but you forced me to comment. Ha! The rest (trees, bushes & hedgerows), are fine, even if 2 trees, look like Ostriches, painted by Salvador Dali. :o)

[@robertblalock3857]

How difficult is it to use the wet on wet technique using your method and landscape style?

[@StuartDavies]

That's one of those impossible questions to answer. Most things are difficult until you practice enough.

[@umbertosly9584]

😄💪💪💪👍🙏

[@januszkolatajart]

🙂

[@user-sh3yu7vl2i]

Wow very nice painting Stuart. I very 2 like you style in painting.stuart , i want to be ask one question can I paint on paper or hard board?

[@katherandefy]

You can paint on anything really. Stuart uses a thin plywood. He uses a couple of coats gesso and sands it smooth. Then it’s ready for paint. That’s the way I do it too.

[@StuartDavies]

Avoid hardboard, but paper is ok once you've put gesso on it.

Hello stuart .i want to ask one question can i use colour Red and Burnt Seiana

[@StuartDavies]

Yes you can, but don't add too much red.

[@user-sh3yu7vl2i]

@@StuartDavies One more questions Stuart can I use sap green with Burnt Senna ?

[@user-sh3yu7vl2i]

Hello Stuart i want ask one question can paint oil with walnut oil , I have walnut oil ?
