How to Paint Sail boats on a Lake - and introducing Naples Yellow

[@alexandrahubner6736]

Even when I’m not painting a video this is such feel good content.

[@ArtbyPaulClark]

Delighted to hear that - thanks!

[@uuugyes]

Excellent! Inspirational! Just watching you wade into the first washes is such a blast! - it delineates the huge difference between oil and watercolour painting and always reinforces why I love watercolour. I'm so grateful to be have access to these videos and want to say, again, how fortunate we are to be able to watch you paint!

[@susangriffin7312]

A joy to watch💖

[@annevanderwoude9319]

Thank you for showing us how to paint I loved it thank you so much

[@darthkek1953]

The facegroup pictures show and prove just how much incredible, almost insane, variation there is in art from just one template. Beautiful stuff.

[@ArtbyPaulClark]

Couldn't agree more!

[@diannehanby1855]

Paul please don’t stop your more complex paintings. I welcome the simpler ones when I’m working and trying to carve painting time out in a busy week. But I really learn more when I attempt your more complex paintings - even if I have to do them a couple of times before I’m happy. As ever, with a grateful heart; thank you for your commitment to these tutorials.

[@ArtbyPaulClark]

Thanks Dianne, ... no plans to stop!

[@donaldnorlie3773]

Thank you Paul, what a good focal point, you can't go wrong with boats.. Its something to see, all the different ways the facebook group did the same picture.. Their all good, and I like seeing other people adding their own spin on your painting..

[@LadyJP6969]

♥️♥️♥️this!!! Thanks Again for sharing Sir.

[@tammiecampos1928]

Wow! Impressive examples from your Facebook group. Thanks for an excellent tutorial.

[@ArtbyPaulClark]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@adriennesaracen6525]

Thanks Paul. I can’t believe how lucky I am to be able to watch this tutorial today. I tried to paint a very similar photo yesterday and made a terrible mess of it. Even worse, I couldn’t work out how I would avoid making the same mistakes again next time. Thanks so much Paul.

[@ArtbyPaulClark]

Fantastic! - delighted to help Adrienne!

[@beatrizhosken1676]

Thank you Paul. A big fun of blues

[@julieboyle170]

Another great tutorial and thank you Paul for the tip on Naples Yellow and how not to send the sky green - great.

[@ArtbyPaulClark]

Glad you liked it!

[@XXSLEDGEHAMMER360XX]

I enjoy this on boats in water 💦 color. Trying to get back into art again. Thank you Paul Clark! Cheers, Charles:)

[@ArtbyPaulClark]

Thank you! Cheers!

[@Stormod]

I’ve been trying to figure out how to paint the clear, northern winter skies all winter. Your tip on how to not blend blue and yellow was what I have been looking for! Thanks! ❤

[@ArtbyPaulClark]

Great to hear!

[@davidrogers3011]

Greetings from Sunny Sevenoaks. Many thanks for this. We were on holiday in Kos last week. Spent a very enjoyable day on the beach doing this. Best wishes

[@Milzoom]

Thanks a lot Paul, it was a treat for me to watch your painting. Simply love to see the whole process.

[@robertcook2572]

The monochrome evocation of the boats was one of the finest things I've seen you paint. An absolute gem. Edit. The facebook submissions were superb, as well!

[@ArtbyPaulClark]

Thanks so much Robert!

[@suresh.karthikeyan]

Absolutely brilliant 👏👏👏 The boats were painted in a masterly fashion - impressionistic yet picture-like.

[@ArtbyPaulClark]

Thank you very much!

[@johnthulborn4713]

Lovely painting Paul Many thanks for your time

[@ArtbyPaulClark]

You are very welcome

[@melindamcleod1120]

Your painting and teaching skills are incredible! I started painting 8 months ago, and I just recently discovered you. Your tutorials have helped me learn so much about techniques (and happy accidents) and learning to be more relaxed about what I'm trying to create. Thank you so much for your time. I feel so fortunate to have found you.

[@sangeetaiyer9465]

Absolutely superb. What a steady hand you have, while doing those masterful riggings and reflections.

[@ArtbyPaulClark]

Thank you so much 😀

[@shawnas464]

Really nice to see the ones from FB! Thanks for including those.

[@ArtbyPaulClark]

Glad you like them!

[@DrCarolFrancis]

Always so helpful to me. My water skills have vastly improved since I have been practicing with your videos. Beyond your excellent teachings and examples, all your paintings are so beautiful. Thz

[@sharonrose160]

Here it is Sunday and I’m just finishing up Wednesday boat scene ( challenging) I really enjoyed seeing the student work, they are very nice. I so enjoy you and your work

[@ArtbyPaulClark]

You got this!

[@thomasjuracek2406]

Another great video Paul and Margot. Haven’t commented in awhile, but I still watch everyone. Keep up the great work!

[@ArtbyPaulClark]

Awesome! Thank you!

[@barbarabunn86]

Thanks so much for this one. I love the boat scenes! Will be a challenge drawing the details on the body of the boats. Love the instruction on the sky and blending! Barbara

[@ArtbyPaulClark]

You can do it!

[@toobazafar6884]

I recently started following your tutorials, your paintings end up looking magical and whimsical, amazing

[@ArtbyPaulClark]

Thank you so much 😀

[@gemmatait4157]

Grazie Paul

[@iangibbon5771]

Paul, awesome painting. So dynamic, so vibrant. Thanks for showing us beginners, that art IS possible. It's a slow road, but I'm enjoying the journey.

[@susanadcock3545]

I really appreciate how comprehensive your videos are. And how much thought and detail you put into them. From the painting, to the music, to the t-shirt, to the beer. Well thought through, well co-ordinated, well planned, well executed, well-rounded. And time consuming for you! Thank you, it's a joy and a pleasure to watch.

[@ArtbyPaulClark]

Glad you like them!

[@susanhester]

Wow a great video. Loved seeing all the paintings at the end. Beautiful!

[@ArtbyPaulClark]

Thank you very much!

[@forestntt72]

You say it is a simple painting, but I still don’t know how you do it so effortlessly. Those boats look fantastic. Practice, practice, practice. Thanks for the tutorial.

[@Anthony-gq7dk]

brilliant art video, one superb teacher and illustrator

[@ArtbyPaulClark]

Thank you so much 😀

[@annierodenberg2327]

You make it look so easy very nice. Thx for sharing the tip w naples yellow. 👍👍👍❤

[@ArtbyPaulClark]

You are so welcome

[@rebeccapage4411]

I love the "blagging it" bit to get the impression of boats. When I saw the initial painting, I didn't think that bank of boats would be possible at my skill level. Also, Naples Yellow from Winsor Newton is my fave 😊

[@ArtbyPaulClark]

Glad you enjoyed it Rebecca!

[@nattyw495]

Thats going into my favorite art word column ...blagging it...lol it can help with my fear ofvthe word opaque which conflounds ( lol..hehehee) me on a daily basis

Wow, the sky, the sail boats and the lake are absolutely stunning! It seems that the colors are not so easy to handle, but I will try my best to follow your tutorial step by step! Thank you Paul! 😃

[@SM-Artist]

I agree with you SL I am going to try too some day 😉👍

[@ArtbyPaulClark]

Thank you very much!

@@ArtbyPaulClark you are awesome painting 😍

[@SharonH11100]

Super happy accidents: thanks for pointing them out. Enjoyed the personal variations: wonderful how differently we see and want to see things! Won’t try this one, only because the masts and rigging would all resemble your reflective wonky lines. Cheers🙋🏼‍♀️🇺🇸🇬🇧🇺🇦

[@ArtbyPaulClark]

Thanks as always Sharon!

[@JB-en7xi]

As always this is stunning. Thank you for all your teachings. I saw this that someone else painted so I had to have a look. Now it’s on my to do list!

[@ArtbyPaulClark]

Wonderful! happy to help!

[@vickiarn]

Beautiful painting; hopefully, I'll be able to get the boats right. I'll practice first on another piece of paper. Thanks again; I love the shirt.

[@ArtbyPaulClark]

Thanks as ever Vicki!

[@paulinestafford2775]

Fantastic but couldn’t ever paint this picture in a million years. Thank you so much for all the brilliant help you give. I struggle to finish a picture with foreground ideas as this part of the picture especially a country scene as am not sure what to paint especially if it’s a field.

[@ArtbyPaulClark]

Great to hear!

[@lindasaugstad4953]

Thanks Paul I try all your tutorials. Sometimes it takes a couple of try’s on your more complicated paintings but the result of these challenges are some of my ver best works! Your simpler paintings have all taught me something as well🫶🏻Mostly gentle beauty

Lovely. And the Fb group are very talented! Great paintings all. Thank you for the tutorial.

[@ArtbyPaulClark]

Thanks so much 😊

[@barbaraonisko7441]

Very wise choice to pick a easier subject. Keeps the viewers coming back for more. The gouache at end really brought it home with such beautiful contrast. Still amazing that such a small stroke/blot of paint can be sooo beautiful & finish a painting. Thanks for the reminder of how to paint reflections of objects correctly-a forgotten technique by many. Just excellent.

[@ArtbyPaulClark]

Thank you! Cheers!

[@mariannedoblesderuiter9285]

Fabulous thank you Paul for all the usefull information

[@vyviennewade4483]

A lovely exercise than you as ever Paul . I would really love a tutorial on how to paint dark/night scenes in watercolour - finding it very difficult not to paint muddy dark skies.

[@petragunther4439]

I'm in love with naples yellow (by white nights). And yes, I have to admit that I didn't try to paint your last videos. Didn't like the subjects 😔 But now, I'm back on the track 😁 thank you 🙏

Welcome back Petra!

Thank you Paul. Beautiful.

I’m glad you mentioned ‘Blagging it’, as I felt that’s what I did with my boats as I couldn’t distinguish the details. Thanks again.

Wow ! Naples Yellow is one of my less favorite pigment, I am so exiting I could use it in the sky without green tones !

[@ArtbyPaulClark]

Good to hear!

[@annenglish2935]

Wow! Another lovely picture Sir Paul 😊! Following you as you paint I'm learning a great deal... & sticking a few good ideas in my memory.... where it tends to seep out sometimes - HA! The music is an awesome part of your lesson, as your paint took on different characteristics as it dried... Excellent work from FB group also! With love, from a grateful California Gramma ❤️
