How to Paint a Victorian Cottage Garden in Watercolour

[@paularobinson6722]

Thank you for highlighting the work of a woman artist who did not receive the credit she deserved in her own time. She was criticized for being too sentimental for painting scenes of women's lives, but that is what was familiar to her, being barred from areas of life dominated by men. Your painting is lovely, and as always I learn a great deal from your videos.

[@Michael-lq5di]

Good morning Paul 😊 always look 😊 to Wednesday great stuff!!

[@ArtbyPaulClark]

Great comment - thanks for sharing!

[@maryannknox7158]

I agree ☝️

[@arunapendse6296]

Wonderful tutorial. Thank you so much.

[@eirenmist12]

Today's painting was a pure delight! I too have enjoyed Helen's work through the years, and I'm so glad you did the research I should have done to find out more about her. I'm thinking how gratified she would be that her work is still enjoyed and appreciated. Thank you!

[@ArtbyPaulClark]

Wonderful! - Yes I agree!

[@bettyrogers9090]

I am in love with this painting.

[@ArtbyPaulClark]

so kind - thanks!

[@neilcarpenter8457]

Another brilliant tutorial Paul it is easy to see why so many of us look forward to Wednesdays thanks again Paul

[@ArtbyPaulClark]

Glad you enjoyed it

[@lisam2537]

Stunning. Absolutely stunning!!! Thank you. Your paintings make Wednesdays so much better!!!

[@ArtbyPaulClark]

My pleasure - thanks!

[@beagilbert9296]

Thank you once again ❤

[@Nancy-ii5yo]

Beautiful warm and cozy feeling painting. You would have made Ms Allingham very happy!

[@ArtbyPaulClark]

Oh thank you! ... I hope so!

[@adelabadova3105]

Good afternoon, dear Paul! I’m glad to see you in the watercolor studio as always on Wednesday. Thank you for the video tutorial and, as always, I like 👍 for the amazing and magnificent video! All the best to you, good luck, health and most importantly peace on the planet (now this is the most relevant problem).Be happy!Bye...bye...❤❤❤👍👍👍🙂👋🤭🤣😊☝🖼🖼🖼🎨🎨🎨

[@ArtbyPaulClark]

Hiya - first again - well done Adela ... and have a great day too!!!

[@adelabadova3105]

​@@ArtbyPaulClarkYes, dear, I'm the first, because... Internet is good! Today we have good weather, dry and no rain, and in good weather there is always good and fast Internet!!!😉🙃🤭😋👋😊🤣Our Internet, unfortunately, depends on the weather.🤔☝

[@Hevkk1]

Thank you so much as always. I especially loved the little tip about a reference to the original artist at the end.

[@ArtbyPaulClark]

You are so welcome!

[@Doodkapje]

Such a fresh choice of an in-between sip of plum wine to accompany a fresh painting! Thank you for sharing another great tutorial 🙁

[@ArtbyPaulClark]

You are so welcome! - thanks as always!

[@pastorswife1998]

How soft & how lovely!! You’re such a good teacher, thank you!!

[@ArtbyPaulClark]

Very kind - cheers!

[@stampinturtles]

When I opened my KZbin app today and didn’t see a new video I was worried for a second. 😧 after an hour it popped up. Oh yeah. We just had our daylight savings time change. 🤦🏻‍♀️ I love this series and I appreciate the highlight of Helen Allingham and especially hearing how Van Gogh admired her art. What an inspiration she is! And goes to show how the “critics” can get it wrong. Your painting is beautiful and it was a blessing to watch you paint it. It always amazes me how a blank piece of paper can turn into a masterpiece. ❤ 🖼️ As always sending prayers and good wishes to you and Margot. 🙏🏻❤️

[@ArtbyPaulClark]

Lovely as always Jacquline - much appreciated!

[@adelabadova3105]

👋😊👋😉

[@adelabadova3105]

I am also inspired by Paul's art, but paper is short-lived, unfortunately, even if it is of high quality. You can laminate it, then it will not be damaged over time...

[@arundel6640]

Love your amazing victorian painting!!! Sometime please do something with another old style artists painting, please!! Love to see how they worked!! And you always, teach and explain how it was do!! Your a brilliant artist, and amazing teacher!!! 👍😊

[@ArtbyPaulClark]

Thanks ... and will do!

[@lizwallis8488]

I could watch you paint for hours !! 😍

[@ArtbyPaulClark]

Thank you so much 😀

[@elainewood2947]

I so look forward to your Wednesday tutorials, you’re such a pleasure to watch.

[@ArtbyPaulClark]

Thanks Elaine!

[@janenunez7291]

Soo besutiful painting, thank you🙏😍

[@ArtbyPaulClark]

Thank you so much 😀

[@leelanandaihalagamage8005]

Dear Paul, today's lesson is excellent. I really appreciate your tutorials which immensely help to get more knowledgeable. My hobby has been writing for the past 50 years but I recently started painting. I gained more knowledge by watching your lessons Thank you so much. Have a great day

[@ArtbyPaulClark]

Great to hear! ... any thanks!

[@irener1111]

I am so glad you made the comment about not feeling every painting has to be a masterpiece AND that you mentioned about doing the painting without the girl. I struggle with being afraid to make mistakes and I actually said to myself I would try this without the girl! Enjoyed this video as always!

[@ArtbyPaulClark]

Great to hear - thanks!

[@manonrheault5900]

Super i think i am going to paint this for my New decor love it thank you Paul i think this have some Nice caractère

[@ArtbyPaulClark]

Sounds great!

[@CiLucy-r3h]

Molto bello!!!! Sembra che la bambina mi aspetti per bere una tazza di the. Grazie sei sempre il numero ! Ciao

[@ArtbyPaulClark]

Grazie too!

[@flajim]

Paul, I don’t know what blows my mind more… you’re speed painting 😉 or the amazing music you play along with the painting 👏. This painting is so precious and the use of these selections of music beds just MAKES the painting. Thank you again, sir. This old guy gets so much inspiration from your exercises.

[@ArtbyPaulClark]

Thank you so much 😀 ... happy to help and glad you like the music too!

[@christinemayopowers]

Agreed! I look forward to the music Paul chooses too. Happy Watercolor Wednesday

[@judyr1910]

Gorgeous tutorial and painting, Paul! The greatest challenge for me is time. And the music was fabulous. Thank you!

[@ArtbyPaulClark]

Cheers Judy!

[@18eleanor]

I have never heard of her either. I love her work. Your painting is just beautiful!! Great tutorial.

[@ArtbyPaulClark]

Thank you! Cheers!

[@redge9158]

What a lovely tribute! Thank you for honoring Helen and for the beautiful tutorial too - I love the loose style!

[@ArtbyPaulClark]

Thanks so much Sherry

[@maryannknox7158]

[@maryannknox7158]

⁠@@ArtbyPaulClarkI went on Amazon and I ordered this book 📕 so happy I found it…..Thank you Paul

[@sandycols4870]

I love this painting and just hit pause on the video so I could order the same book :) I too enjoy Wednesday more because I look forward to seeing you paint. Thank you. Sandy, Raleigh NC

[@ArtbyPaulClark]

Yay, thank you Sandy!

[@DianeMeadows-h9r]

This is painting on another level. I get the feeling you really enjoyed creating this lovely artwork. It's beautifully done. Thank you for sharing.

[@ArtbyPaulClark]

Thanks so much ... and yes I really did!

[@moonchaserstudio]

So beautiful. The work, the commentary, the music, everything is just superb! You have given me courage to try and paint this. Thank you!

[@ArtbyPaulClark]

Great to hear - have fun!

[@TraceyZambrotta]

Thank you Paul for another amazing video. I would never in a million years try to attempt this but you have broken it down where it’s not that daunting. I think I will give it a go. Wish me luck.

[@ArtbyPaulClark]

Good luck ... and have fun!

[@robinwashburn8804]

Eliza or no Eliza... THAT is the question! Thanks, Paul! This is a great skill building exercise ❤

[@ArtbyPaulClark]

.... I'm going for Eliza!!!

[@quiltedwithlove]

Helen's work is stunning. I'm glad she's getting the accolades she deserves now.

[@ArtbyPaulClark]

Yes, agree with that!

[@zmankhz]

Thanks so much for your lovely work. I bought your watercolour book recently and still waiting to receive it in the mail. Can’t wait to dig and let your artistic wisdom hopefully improve my own art. Blessings!

[@ArtbyPaulClark]

Hope you enjoy it!

[@sylviadeklerk6268]

I want to live in that beautiful cottage, sit in the garden and drink plum wine❤

[@ArtbyPaulClark]

Sounds like a plan!

[@nikkia9506]

Her paintings don't actually look too romanticised, not when you look at the buildings. They're worn, they're tatty, and they seem incredibly accurate. The figures might cleaned up, but, again, possibly accurate. She did give everything a softness and warmth that made them seem more romanticised, though. You did an amazing tribute to her work. Now I'm off to Google to discover more 😊

[@ArtbyPaulClark]

That's great to hear - thanks

[@lindadavis-ys1cf]

Again, just amazed by your talent. Oh and how this subject makes me wish I was born in back in time in this era! As I watched you paint and talking sent me somewhat in your painting. ❤

[@ArtbyPaulClark]

Agree - must be lovely, that simple way of life!

[@jilliandane3737]

Good afternoon Paul. Just tuning in on a hot and bright afternoon to see another one of your thrilling paintings. Thank you also for the information and history of the artist. A very fasinating Victorian painting indeed with lovely greens and depicting sheer artistry.

[@ArtbyPaulClark]

You are very welcome - thanks!

[@CJ-jl4cx]

A delightful watercolor Wednesday! Thank you for sharing your knowledge with us.

[@ArtbyPaulClark]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@marie-x6l]

merci pour ce magnifique tutoriel ! 🙂

[@ArtbyPaulClark]

Merci aussi!

[@pokey3010]

Lovely painting you painted it so beautifully. I love old historical settings like this cottage. I can't wait to paint this after all the bang bang on my house stops, it's being renovated no extra room though my closet is still my studio!! .. LOL Oh you look great in flowers.. LOL Thank you so much 🥰

[@ArtbyPaulClark]

LOl! - thanks for that - glad things are a little quieter!

[@Katubes]

Love these inspiration series. I really appreciate the fact that I get to learn about these artists that are not necessarily well known, like Van Gogh, but were just as amazing, like Helen Allingham. Hope you continue on with these inspiraton series Paul.

[@ArtbyPaulClark]

Glad you like them! ... and will do!

[@patriciamarshall7762]

Thanks Paul. Your demonstrations are fit to show to anyone with an endeavour to paint well. Some of us are mere beginners, and some so clever already, but for each of us there are gems to take home and use to improve our work. Thanks so much for your wonderful tutorials. ❤

[@ArtbyPaulClark]

You are very welcome

[@sheilamariaeyles9358]

Such a delightful moment in the week to watch your tutorials, Paul! This is so beautiful, delicate yet full of vibrant colours especially with those final touches. Wonderful! Thanks for bringing to our knowledge the work of wonderful artists.

[@ArtbyPaulClark]

Thank you so much 😀

[@sunsetshadow]

I love watercolour Wednesdays and I did remember the tonal value painting. But the music, Paul, the lullaby .. oh, such fond memories of my late mother singing that to me as a child. As ever, always a joy to join you and follow along. Thank you!

[@ArtbyPaulClark]

Glad you enjoyed it .. yes. it's a lovely tune!

[@DanielDiscusSammut]

Well done as always Master 🖌️

[@ArtbyPaulClark]

Thank you! Cheers!

[@christinerolf9348]

Thanks Paul a very interesting tutorial, loved it. The lullaby was very nostalgic 😊 and the info of Helen Allingham was so interesting, learned loads as always.

[@ArtbyPaulClark]

Glad you enjoyed it

[@anihari2229]

An absolutely fabulous scene for the Wednesday tutorial. Such vibrant colours you have used. Love it but way beyond my ability

[@ArtbyPaulClark]

Thank you so much! ... you can do it!

[@savithriragavan549]

Beautiful work - looks detailed without fussing over everything! Thank you for showing us how this is done.

[@ArtbyPaulClark]

Thank you so much!

[@christinemayopowers]

So lovely! I always enjoy Watercolor Wednesday. This tutorial shows how to do a more detailed painting but still keeping a loose painterly feel. Definitely will take me longer than 3:5 hours 😂 but excited to try. I love these Inspiration Series videos, it’s like being enrolled in a college course! Thank you Paul for all your efforts in these videos, paintings and channel. ❤

[@ArtbyPaulClark]

Thanks so much 😊

[@annenglish2935]

I keep hearing you say you store your paintings between paper liners??? As a beginner, I have no idea what to use. Would it be like copy paper. My paintings are no larger than 5 x 7"... maybe someday...I'll paint on larger paper. Thank you... OCG😊

[@ArtbyPaulClark]

Glad you enjoyed it Ann 😁

I just love the way Paul rips the frog tape off without damaging the paper.😳

[@ArtbyPaulClark]

It does tear sometimes if I'm not careful!

[@christabrouwer]

Fascinating to watch how you manage to make this painting come to life. I loved watching you make it!

[@ArtbyPaulClark]

Thank you! Cheers!

[@thewritejohansen8054]

I love seeing you mixed media! Thank you Paul for sharing your techniques and dad jokes. I love when you go into art history and enjoyed the fact that Vincent was a fan of Helens. Great tutorial. I'm not painting this anytime soon, but I certainly enjoyed your process.

I enjoy this series very much! This is lovely, of course. Gonna try this sketch free-hand. In my attempt to convince you to have a few beer lessons, I mean voice lessons, with me, I will let you know I sang the Brahms as an encore in The Schubert Competition in Vienna many years ago. And, I won that sucker!!! An American! Well, I had to do some late-night coaching if you know what I mean...

Lol! - that's great - looking forward to hearing it! - I can do a fairly poor version of 'Bring Him Home' from Les Mis!

@@ArtbyPaulClark that is an extremely difficult piece!!! I've told you there is a good voice in you. Don't take time to respond; you have so many here. If beer makes it happen, so be it!!
