One of the best watercolor demonstrations ever. Thank you, Andy! And thanks to the California Watercolor Association as well.

[@mattyrsofar]

Wow, what GORGEOUS use of toned down color! Amazing!

[@dogwhiskers8]

I think the colours are stunning. I can feel the cold, yet the sun's warmth. And the crisp air. Excellent teacher.

Andy has opened up ‘the magic door’ to my learning how to vastly improve my watercolour painting. Thank you master ✏️🎨🖍️

[@saraht4973]

Absolutely the best demonstrations ever!

[@saraht4973]

The very best ever. Makes so much since to use the value study for big shapes then the darks on the value study. Smart. Thanks so very much. Love this

[@maryrichinick7287]

Excellent!

[@barbaralee915]

Saw this painting on your site. Just love it! You are so great with light & shadow but my goodness your colors are just amazing! Especially the very subtle ones like a street, a glass window on the side of a building that has a reflection on it, & on & on. Such intuitive color mixing!

[@saraht4973]

Makes great sense. Thank you so much 😊

[@emjaydark2811]

Glad you enjoyed it

[@danthomas6587]

Fantastic

[@cwatercolor]

Thank you! Check out our workshops at CaliforniaWatercolor.org

[@observationprocess5844]

It’s interesting how when Andy shares the nuances of water ratio, some of us keep wondering what brush size his using.

[@EdoHannema-Watercolour-Art]

So much of us paint on the back! :))))

[@intezamable]

The value study is just on a normal sketch book page? With medium thick plain paper?

[@mocarver]

I learned so much. Would like to know more about value studies.

[@sushmaiyer4473]

wonderful class

[@cwatercolor]

Thank you! Check out our workshops at CaliforniaWatercolor.org

[@ruthbosch7788]

Do you tape down the paper?

[@mattwj77]

Another great demo by Andy. Much appreciated for the video content, CWA! FYI for anyone looking for the brush that is discussed a few times: It looks to me like that brush referred to as a Da Vinci synthetic is actually a Da Vinci Petit Gris, which is pure Russian blue squirrel. By contrast, the synthetic Da Vinci Casaneo brushes have very dark handles. Any other brush sleuths out there with more info?

[@cwatercolor]

Great tip!

[@zonderbaar]

There are Da Vinci Petit Gris pure squirrel brushes and also Petit Gris mix with squirrel and synthetic hair available here in Europe

[@barbaralee915]

He said he uses synthetic when he goes down in size & doesnt want it to hold so much water.

[@mattwj77]

@@barbaralee915 I realize that's what he says. But I don't think the brush is actually synthetic -- those light handled Da Vinci's are natural hair brushes.

[@yancowles]

It's possibly a Da vinci Series 488 Spin Synthetic French Quill Mop.

[@junvale6389]

Awesome demo, Thanks Andy. May be more earthly scene if added some walking figures….salamat, saludos!

[@cwatercolor]

Thank you! Check out our workshops at CaliforniaWatercolor.org

[@wesmcclaskie3442]

Hey Andy very new to watercolor painting never really have tried it but once or twice but your work is Awesome by the way I know that you said that you admire a certain person for his paintings and the size that he works on what size was that painting

[@barbaralee915]

I think he said 7 x 10. He was showing a book & assumed the paintings were large but he was reading the dimensions, yep! Another 7 x 10!

[@ruthbosch7788]

Have you tried koi watercolors?

[@corallall]

34:17 sombdy has belched😂

[@wesmcclaskie3442]

Didn't really explain that the right way I meant what size was your painting that you just painted

[@cwatercolor]

Thank you! Check out our workshops at CaliforniaWatercolor.org

[@cwatercolor]

I think he was painting on 1/4 sheets

[@suzyrue6846]

Cows are different they’re nice 😂

[@budakart]

Come to al Islam n success

[@user-rx3ph3ox4i]

I guess a couple of objects on the left side of the scene are superfluous. The integrity of the composition falls apart. It would be better without them.
