John, Please never change your format, your background music, your style, your relaxed approach, and the almost whisper as you teach. It is all perfect. I feel relaxed and ready to learn. There is no stress or shame. Also thank you for not speeding through the strokes. Artists on KZbin often do this but it’s the most important aspect when learning. You are awesome and thank you for this content.

It look's so real! Very nice! I,am learning how to draw eye's for my planting pott's.

[@littleone498]

I used to do oil paintings and after a tragic life event, I lost the urge to paint. I recently came across your video and watching you paint has made me want to pick up my brushes again. You are beyond talented and truly hope you continue to make these incredible videos. The way you explain each step is perfectly done. Thank you for sharing your special gift

[@davidshareefChTPhD]

I used to do oil paintings also but I found acrylic painting more satisfying because of the disposal of oils you don't have to worry about your trash can catching on fire LOL

[@deren2001]

I hope you did

[@aldomacrina576]

Sei bravissimo

[@michann7973]

I've been doing this one for 3 days because of my clumsy hands while you effortlessly do it in just hours. YOU ARE JUST FRICKIN TALENTED. Thank you for teaching me how to paint.

[@kirans966]

John this is incredible! I haven't seen anyone else on KZbin paint faces realistically in Acrylics than you. Pls start a series on how to paint realistic faces/portraits, showing us each part of face in sections. And it would be very helpful if you could provide your inspirational pic pls. Thq so much John for generously sharing your talent with us.

[@jmlisondra]

you're welcome Kiran and thank you very much! Yes i will do more in the future specially parts of the body like hand and legs and realistic portraits...

[@milanoslzla4710]

Beautiful job! Thank you for sharing this with so many. Your work is truly appreciated!

[@OdysseusMDA]

This artist is amazing and very generous in his teaching for a very long time! Thank you John!

[@aureliaaparacio3342]

This is the best tutorial I have seen. I strugle with skin tone, and seeing your pallet next to your painting, how you mix and blend your colors, has been a breakthrouw for me. None of my art teaches ever did a demonstration like this. Thank you so much for sharing your talent. Please keep teaching us, and God bless you.

[@juliebittinger46]

It doesn’t matter how long it takes!!! You are showing us so much detail of EVERY step of the way! I’ve never seen anyone do this!! Thank you for your generosity and your time. I WILL finish watching this later. I can’t wait! And I know I will watch again and again! Saving pic of this process with your name at bottom. So can be sure to find you easily. Truly beautiful and amazing.

[@maryhamill36]

I watched it from start to finish and how it came to life; it's like a photograph of a real eye - amazing!

[@avraham144]

מהמם

[@melbac.6745]

Love that this is in real time. There are some helpful enough tutorials out there, but they always seem to edit out little parts that I think would be really helpful, especially to people starting out. Thank you so much for this!

[@haniashkir1670]

I can't believe 497 people dislikes this realistic eye painting they must be feeling so jealous

[@anyahammad4762]

Yeah

[@orianechapman5644]

Yeah

[@berthapoblacion4019]

Just beautiful job!!! very professional❤💜

[@Jenny-ob3go]

Probably when he started doing eyelashes with branches on them they hit dislike

[@nadaraja1200]

Ys u said it..

[@wafabecker2203]

I don’t even know what to say about how a rare artist you are . You are such an aspiration

[@peaceful3250]

This is by far the best art video I have ever seen. Everything is perfect; quiet and relaxing music, your gentle and educational voice, easily understood explanation and a realistic, lifelike result. You are an amazing artist and presenter. Thank you so much. ❤️

[@ipsitapradhan9196]

The best eye tutorial of all times ... thank you sir

[@jmlisondra]

[@mimihua2]

I love that you put them in real time. All of the artists I follow and tutorials they show are sped up. Loved the tutorial. Thanks!

[@juhmcohanada8773]

Congratulations John, perfect eye!!! 👏👏👏

[@AngelBoy666]

I just picked up a brush after 45 years to follow this tutorial. You have inspired me to paint again! It's finished now and I'm really pleased with it. Thank you so much 🤗

[@susheelakandulna2383]

Realistic eye really looking real ..wow❤

[@zoniacc50]

Jonh: I confess that I was, and still am, just mesmerized from start to finish of your video. Thank you very much for giving me the pleasure of seeing you do magic with your art. What envy !!

[@tescuaycong2287]

one of the best eye tutorials i have seen on utube. you are not only a gifted painter but a gifted teacher as well. thank you for this!

[@spyuggy]

Absolutely stunning, a great tutorial. The tear duct in the left hand corner is so spot on, I could hardly take my eyes from it, the fleshy look you have is amazing. Great job John, I could watch you paint for hours.

[@jmlisondra]

thanks again Douglas... :)😊

[@gerrywinston6805]

Gen I love what you said in the comment below. All true. I think John is amazing! I read his bio and no way would I ever have thought he was self taught artist!!! This gives him an edge over other artist in my opinion. I love his humble news !! Falling in love with his style. I too feel so relaxed watching him!! Keep sharing your God given talent John!!! Thank you!

[@rhondamelton2344]

0:46 I painted this along with you. Thank you so much you was great. My eye was not as spectacular as yours but now I get it. Thank you so much.

[@mrmusikman8298]

I have been waiting for that "ah-ha" moment for so many years but I found it now thanks to you. It just takes the right person to explain things in a way that "I" understand and can apply with success. Thank you so much for sharing your talent and wisdom, I am going to start my own channel soon and trust me when I say that I will be exploring what I have learned from your video. You just made my day.

[@rupeshchajed614]

Wow hyper realistic. This painting is fruit of patience

[@janetlegard2161]

Watching you paint is like meditation. Your painting is mesmerising and your voice is gentle. You are an awesome artist. Thank you for letting us watch you work.

[@中屋らら]

Really realistic! Thanks for sharing

[@alisonwigens-lamond8715]

I’ve had to pause your video and I’m only a quarter of the way through it, just to say thank you . This really is the best and most soulful video tutorial I’ve seen. Your approach is totally inspiring. Thank you for your time in sharing your incredible talents 🙏

[@angeliclike3623]

Now this! Is! A! Tutorial! Thank you so much!

[@michellepense7894]

Time worth watching. I don’t paint portraits, but I enjoyed it. Lovely work. God bless you in this new year.

[@judethfenton5978]

I loved it. When you put that bright pink on I thought you'd gone mad but it makes the eye pop and looks totally natural. I've painted and drawn portraits all my life and I love to paint eyes. You've taught me more in an hour and a half than all my tutors. Thank you.

[@RolyPolyUnicorn]

Oh my gosh. You are an amazing painter. I can't believe someone can paint this good with acrylic. I loooove your work. You're so inspiring. Amazing job!!

[@faydiva8863]

Thank you for showing this process. I have just painted my first portrait and it looks a bit cartoony. I realise that it is the eyes that are too flat. This is exactly what I needed to see.

[@shazlee100]

I had no problem with your time, I was glued to the screen through the whole amazing process. Thank you so much for this video, truly wonderful work!

[@denisemeguro6435]

You are a true artist I’ve been watching you for years. I’ve learned watching you. Thank you.

[@kallejohansvampen]

Therapeutic to watch your process, and absolutely incredible result. Watched the entire video and will re-watch it with a brush in my hand next time. Thank you for this!
