[@1fredricka]

This is my favorite Painting!! Thank You for sharing this beautiful picture!

[@swap70]

You are simply a superb teacher I a lady of 70 years is excited to paint the way you instructed . I keep my fingers crossed 😁😁😁

[@LoisDavidsonArt]

It takes a bit of practice, but if you are determined you will paint some wonderful paintings!

[@boondoggle6]

I have been painting along with you for many months now and often feel I should comment on your amazing paintings. (But I guess you would find that boring!) You have such a wide variety of subjects and this one is really top of the pops! Thank you for your willingness to share your methods, your soothing and gentle voice is such a tonic in today's hurley burley world - and more power to your brushes.

[@LoisDavidsonArt]

Thank you so much, I'm so pleased my demos are useful!

[@lindasaugstad4953]

Your talent astounds me! Coupled with your colour choices, the ability to explain your process is a gift to all of those of amongst us who are “wannabe artists”

[@harmoni4499]

Excellent painting!

[@LisaLisa-fq4th]

Fantastic! This is a brilliant painting. I can hear the birds calling.

[@dougrutherford3848]

I've lived in more than one fishing community and this has certainly left me a bit on the nostalgic side. Very nicely done.

[@connieostroha8423]

Atmospheric and beautiful Lois! 💕

[@jeremybristoe3443]

Lying in a hospital bed near Venice and boy yor demo gave me an amazing lift... Provoves and captures memories of fishing boats returning to Whitehaven. Amazing, you really spoke to me with this and I guess that's what you hope to do....

[@LoisDavidsonArt]

Thanks so much Jeremy, I'm glad you enjoyed the demo, and I hope you recover soon

[@jeremybristoe3443]

You bet.... Going to get out and paint again!? Keep em coming Lois! 😀

[@grahamnash9794]

I really love the amazing atmosphere you've created. The ultimate in blissfulness. Another aspect that reaches in to my depths, is that we can look at this and make up our own minds what time of year it is. One can either feel the soothing cool at the end of a hot summers day, or to the other extreme, one could be looking at this and wanting to get home quickly, and sit by a roaring fire. There's so much expression in such a simple image. These are the stories we never get to see on those dramatic docu-soaps. But they are the one my old heart cries out for. Life has enough drama on it's own. Give me tranquillity any day. Wonderful Lois. Thank you so much.

[@valeriechapman3943]

Thank you Lois - I just love your seascapes and all your generous help. I feel you have helped me tremendously over the last year or so. Stay safe. xx

Painting a boat without painting a boat is no mean feat. Well done, Lois. This turned out beautiful, didn't it? I really love the atmosphere and can hear those greedy gulls! :)

You are my favourite artist, Lois! So inspiring for a beginner. I want to buy a couple of calligraphy brushes. Can you suggest one to start with?

[@선-j7t]

멋져요~

[@hughmorley365]

Absolutely masterful Lois - and there was you telling me on Facebook you didn't know why your videos did so well!! Fantastic colour blending and a real masterstroke to leave the patch of unpainted sky on the right and on the sea below. Loved the boat painting - where do you buy your calligraphy brushes from?

[@mysticriver9420]

♥️👍

[@alanjones9901]

Love this Lois, thank you very much. Can I ask what you use as the “board” that you tape your paper to. Thank you again, Best wishes Alan

[@曾光復]

好👌！

[@tonyrobinson1168]

Just finished it Lois,great tutorial. Have you anywhere we can post our pictures from your tutorials ?

[@LoisDavidsonArt]

Unfortunately not unless you join Patreon where members can share their work in the private member’s Facebook group. Otherwise you can post it publicly on Instagram and tag me @loisdavidsonart

[@janeenwest1913]

Beautiful painting. What brand of calligraphy brush do you use? I've been shopping for them and it's quite confusing.

[@LoisDavidsonArt]

I purchase unbranded Chinese brushes on EBay, I just buy the cheapest ones I can find

[@janeenwest1913]

@@LoisDavidsonArt thank you!

[@kerbear829]

Wondering why you don't mask your gulls instead of gouache?

[@hussmeister792]

One of my top five favorites of yours Lois! Where can I buy one of your paintings? Thanks and a big hello from Fort Worth, Texas!

[@LoisDavidsonArt]

Thanks, I'm glad you like it, please follow the link in the description to my Etsy shop if you are interested in purchasing a painting

[@lyndonreddick1888]

Wanting to try this or some of your other paintings. It looks like you used some sort of resist for the light in the sky and the sparkly reflections. Or is that just dry paper there?

[@LoisDavidsonArt]

Just dry paper

[@timmiweber584]

Please which small calligraphy brushes do you use. Ive tried many but cant seem to find a good set

[@Treeman196]

Had a go at it ha ha how do you get the sparkling effect on the water ?its really good but I cant for the life of me replicate it fair play to you your a fantastic artist while I on the other hand am rubbish o well keep trying

[@LoisDavidsonArt]

It’s dry brush where the brush lightly catches the raised texture of the paper, missing out the dips to create the sparkle!!im sure you will get it with a bit of practice

[@Treeman196]

Thanks for replying 🙂 I appreciate it will have to get some of that paper it's really effective I've noticed ona few of your paintings your very good 👍 I love your work

[@pyxiecup]

How many colors do you actually use? I'm fascinated by my favorite artists, such as yourself, because they use roughly the same 4 or 5 colors.

[@LoisDavidsonArt]

I only use about 6 or 7 colours, maybe adding a few others if the painting calls for it

[@robertscollick3382]

At 4-05 in, that is a Tug Boat and not a Fishing Boat. It is a nice painting overall though, and your interpretation is nearer to a Fishing boat, than the reference. 👍👍
