Hi Patrick, Thank you for your interesting videos. I struggled for many years to paint loose and found a great tip and solution almost overnight. What was it? Simple! Forget your pencil and only use your brush to paint And use the biggest you can. Every success

[@PatrickLeyGreaves]

That’s a great tip Daniel, can be hard to master for some but great way to loosen up.

[@tericarter2886]

Love love love the free brushwork and color Once again you have inspired me to have a go

[@PatrickLeyGreaves]

Thanks Teri I’ve achieved my goal if my videos inspire people to paint. Thanks again.

Hi Patrick Ley-Greaves, I came across you yesterday via Liron Yanconsky and I am delighted to see your beautiful watercolour paintings and tutorials. This particular one is super and loving the colours in particular. Thank you and hope to see many more.

[@heartseme]

Wonderful painting! I tried going to your eBay site. I didn’t have any luck finding any paintings. Perhaps a different link?

[@victoriatucker7774]

Such a bright feel to this painting! Hope you are well. Miss seeing you here. I hope you are enjoying life.

[@ranjanachand9306]

Thanks Toni it was fun to paint.

[@RobertHopkinsArt]

Great work! I like how the green and red vibrate together in the foreground and mid ground.

[@kelseywood1582]

This is Great thank you so much for posting.

[@viviandibrell849]

Love your videos and philosophy! Thanks!

[@PatrickLeyGreaves]

Thanks Vivian i’m pleased it was of some help to you.

[@MPLangerArt]

This was a delight to watch. I love the freedom you have brought to your watercolour work as a result of the oil painting. At first I thought the deep blue band in the distance was the sea but then you went in a opened the whole thing up into far away fields rimmed with trees - still strong but also delicate. The foreground is fabulous, the strong red tones, the cutting in with green! I like this one a lot. Thanks for a great video and painting experience.

[@PatrickLeyGreaves]

Thanks Patricia, it was very enjoyable to paint. Your right the distant fields were just suggested and with the addition of blue help to push it all back. Looking forward to trying the same approach on a more structured scene , buildings etc. 😀

[@artifexmom3824]

Wow! And that’s beautifully done sir! I love it!☺️❤️ Hi I’m #40.1 and I’m your newest follower.☺️ Keep safe sir and God bless you.🙏🏻

[@essietangle9931]

It’s always great to enjoy a painting come to life when the artist says that they are enjoying themself. Before you added the little detail in the distance I thought I dont know about this but at the end, WOW. Wouldn’t that be great to see this scene out the back window each day. This has been great and I have enjoyed your excitement too. Here in Texas it is very flat and mostly you see here are fields of cotton not all this beautiful color. Take care of your self and your family.

[@PatrickLeyGreaves]

Thanks Essie I appreciate your comment.I’m sure your aware being an artist yourself a painting in progress often goes through an ugly stage before coming together. Lots of artists cast it aside to early, I like to see it through to the end as I’m often pleasantly surprised by the end result.

[@GuReumArtStudio]

Very impressive! You expressed the landscape with just few strokes. Great colors as well! Happy New Year, my friend! Looking forward to see your next upload!

[@ZenARTSupplies]

Lovely demo, Patrick! Every new video is a new source of inspiration. Love the loose style. Thank you for sharing! - Beatrice

[@juststartingover2735]

Thank you for your beautiful watercolor demonstrations. I love landscapes and the Abandoned Farmhouse you did was my intro to your painting. Love impressionism, too! Please keep adding videos here, its been too long.😞

[@vilmo51]

👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻😍

[@berylrose3213]

I enjoyed watching you paint this pic. Can you tell me the name of your little blue Flat brush you began the painting with please? Thank you for your instruction

[@chrismoon7758]

Thank you Patrick for another inspiring video Patrick. I've been looking for a large palette like yours where did you buy it?

[@grazielafreitas5084]

Thanks for the class. I wish success.

[@PatrickLeyGreaves]

Thank you very much

[@robertaustin6538]

Excellent. I really like the distant fields and trees.

[@PatrickLeyGreaves]

Thanks Robert . I’m pleased you like it.

[@julijopeterson7096]

I like this painting. Especially the jagged & abstract parts of the fore trees where the branches go horizontal & where the magenta meets the dark green.

[@davescupper5789]

Campion?

[@TropiChic]

Yes, I enjoyed it. You are where I want to be as an artist. Thanks for the inspiration!

[@bernadetteblanchfield7776]

Beautiful painting Patrick. Love your videos and thank you so much for them. Could those flowers be Rosebay Willowherb?

[@PatrickLeyGreaves]

Thank you. Yes they are just googled it after getting your message. Thank you for that 😀😀

[@imogenekluson9702]

Lovely demo! I love the freshness and the Joy it imparts. Thank you, Patrick, for the inspiration! Take care.

[@PatrickLeyGreaves]

Thank you Imogene 😀

[@paulinewilkons4071]

Thank you Patrick a delightful 30 mins spent watching a blank piece of paper turned into this lovely, colourful watercolour painting. You certainly inspire us to pick up our paints and brushes to get cracking and paint again, the urge to paint never leaves me but circumstances put a leash on me.

[@PatrickLeyGreaves]

That’s great Pauline I hope your able to get back to it and relax into your painting again. Just don’t put too much pressure on yourself. Have fun!

[@janemolloy3550]

Thanks for this. Have shared with my classes that are unfortunately on hold at the moment. Lovely to find realistic and informative tutorials i can pass on, and yours are great, thank you.

[@PatrickLeyGreaves]

That’s awesome Jane I’m pleased it was of use to you.

[@getsomecolourinyourlifedav2478]

Loose and free, impressionistic with a realistic feel is a great way to paint, good job Patrick 👍

[@PatrickLeyGreaves]

Thanks Dave the oil painting has really loosened me up. Looking forward to trying the relaxed style on more structured scenes like buildings etc.

[@getsomecolourinyourlifedav2478]

@@PatrickLeyGreaves oh I love doing buildings 👍

[@getsomecolourinyourlifedav2478]

@@PatrickLeyGreaves think I'm opposite, my watercolours have helped me to get loose with oils. Not that I've done any oil painting for a bit but I'm sure it's gona help me
