[@danijelac3511]

Dear Jane! Too many artists on the planet.... but, NOBODY EXPLAINS DETAILS LIKE YOU! TALENT AND PROFESIONALISM!! THANK YOU SO MUCH

[@lindamorris7572]

Everything you do amazes me and each one is so different. You've got the perfect voice for teaching with the best attitude. Most of us are beginners and we appreciate you more than you can imagine.

[@hairgeekinpa]

Jane I have watched so many different teachers, you by far are the best instructor, from the smallest detail of how you wash your brush, to why you mix which medium with the paint, to the journey through graphic stock, to how you come to your idea! I have never been able to paint until, I watched your rainy window painting, you made it so easy! thank you so much for sharing your passion and your time!

[@PaintingwithJane]

Oh, Andrea, thank you so much, friend. Your sweet comment means the world to me. I'm so glad I could help you get started painting!! Never stop

[@rebeccau4086]

THANK YOU JANE!!! I hosted a paint night with 12 friends last night. We did your "Blue Christmas" tutorial. Half of the group had never painted before!! Was a blast. Thank you soooooooo much, I LOVE following you.

[@PaintingwithJane]

Yay, Rebecca!!! How fun!! Thank you so much for inviting me to paint with you guys

[@SigneMackey1]

I love all of the explanations you provide behind why and how you do things. Very few people do that and it can leave one wondering why our work looks s different from yours. Or, how you achieved a look that I want to duplicate. I learn a lot from you! So very much appreciated!

[@PaintingwithJane]

Thank you so much!! I'm very glad my videos are helpful for you

[@leenrawas2476]

Jane, because of you I became the best painter in the whole school thank you verry much for that.

[@PaintingwithJane]

Yay, Leen!!! Congrats, and thank you so much

[@user-qy4mk4mc1b]

I find painting with you is so calming and relaxing. Painted your Zed Pond for a friend that just needed a little lift me up. She was so surprised made her cry. She loves it

[@zzizmyheart]

I homeschool my child and your tutorials are great art projects!😄 Thank you so much for sharing.

[@PaintingwithJane]

[@PaintingwithJane]

lol, thank you so much, Ani-ko

[@carolholmes3633]

About two months ago I discovered this painting and fell in love with it. At the time we were in the process of moving into a new home. Could not paint it at the time but I kept it in the back of my mind. A couple of weeks ago, I watched it once again and did a test painting on a 6x8 multi medium paper using a black background, a white Posca Pen to make ornaments and chains, and different colors of glitter acrylic paints for the boca lights. I made a couple of mistakes but on the whole it turned out great. I just got a 12x16 canvas and making plans to buy a couple of different size Posca pens for different outline sizes. Thanks for showing us how to paint this beautiful work.

[@Thegirlwhowaits]

Just worked a straight open to close week of work. Wednesday to Wednesday. Finally my day off, I need this art therapy. Thank you Jane!

[@PaintingwithJane]

Aaaw, man, that's a long week!! Relax and get some YOU time in, Lacey

[@stacieadams1873]

Gonna try this one tomorrow. I got my Mom and my son who live in different states to paint with me on ZOOM every Saturday. Thanks for being part of the fam, Jane. lol

[@yvonnerobertson9522]

Mother is 91. She saw the one similar to this tutorial that I painted. She thinks yellow and green will be pretty. Yellow and green it is. 1 week before Mother's day! Thank you for the tutorials. Anita

[@Darlene5541]

I work with children and thought your video would be great to teach them. They can make Christmas cards:) Thank you for making these. I want the children to get a good feel for art

[@PaintingwithJane]

What a beautiful idea, Darlene!! I love it so much

[@pattyshaw8300]

Ps love your instructions!! YOU are always clear and say exactly how to do each step PLUS your music is soft and low and your voice is easy to listen to when you describe each step and what you are using to accomplish it. Thanks for showing Graphics site.

[@PaintingwithJane]

You're so welcome, and thank you for your sweet comments

[@shekinahglory9150]

Jane, your voice is so soothing and relaxing! No wonder I feel so relaxed painting with you,lol!

Aaaw, thank you so much, Ray!!

[@alansartadventures8599]

Brooke and I had a GREAT time painting along with this tutorial on Saturday morning. It is always fun to spend some quality daddy/daughter time painting. I finally had some time to sit and finish mine up tonight. Thank you for a great tutorial and being an art inspiration!

[@PaintingwithJane]

Aaaaw, thank you, you two!!! I just love you two. She's so darling

[@mymea01]

Jane....What a spectacular painting! I will practice my swirls first to get the effect with the right brush. I can't wait to try this. I love watching your tutorials. You have a calming way of explaining everything in detail and NO distractions in the background!

[@janetfisher1236]

I love your calming, beautiful no intimidating voice. You make it seem possible to accomplish. Thank you. I look forward to many other painting from you.

[@MrkirilIMrFilip]

Спасибо огромное, Джейн за твои прекрасные уроки живописи. Очень понятно рассказываешь и показываешь как нужно правильно работать.У тебя приятный голос и сама очень-очень милая. Благодаря тебе у меня появляется вдохновение.Все получается с первого раза. Спасибо большое. Здоровья тебе крепкого, личного счастья и побольше отличных картин.

[@PaintingwithJane]

Спасибо огромное! Это действительно много значит для меня

[@LottieSue]

Awesome! Thank you for posting your painting technique and also for not having blaring music over your voice. Good balance in the audio and I'm grateful!

[@PaintingwithJane]

Thank you so much! I'm glad you enjoyed

[@chasitytaylor8858]

So elegant. I like the deep ness of the blue and purple, but it will be interesting to see if any members of the Facebook group choose different colors. Thanks for the tutorial. 😊

[@PaintingwithJane]

Thank you, Chasity! Yes, I'm excited to see what color combinations come out :D

[@baybreeze82]

OH MY GOODNESS! WHAT IS THIS MAGIC?!?!?!?! Jane....this is a STUNNER! I want to skip class tomorrow just to paint. (I won't of course, because loud inner voice.) Holy wowzers!

[@PaintingwithJane]

Aaaaaw, thank you so much, Bethany!!!

[@maris5951]

how is it possible that each new painting you teach becomes my new favorite?? Jane you are in a word...amazing and we here on youtube are lucky to have you. thank you for another awesome lesson.

[@maris5951]

others are sponsored by graphic stock but you explained how you used their site the best. I rarely take offers from sponsors but I did this time. wow I love graphic stock!

[@maris5951]

and lastly....how 5 people disliked this video is beyond comprehension...they obviously have very different taste. how sad for them.

[@PaintingwithJane]

Thank you so much, Maris

[@jpw9568]

Happy to see some seasonal paintings, I'm eager to paint and hang them to decorate my home this holiday season!

[@PaintingwithJane]

Thank you! Enjoy :D

[@carolkeen2745]

This is a beautiful picture. I am so glad you demonstrated this because it looks a lot more complicated.

[@PaintingwithJane]

Thank you, Carol! It's pretty simple :) I hope you enjoy painting it!

[@moonwillow08]

I love the Simplicity Of this Piece ! So Very Pretty !!!!

[@PaintingwithJane]

Thank you so much, Carol

[@sueclark8896]

I can't wait to get going....need to watch 1st, but I'm just sooooo excited. I haven't been this excited in a few. I'll be back later with more....exquisite Jane. ♡

[@PaintingwithJane]

Yay!!! Thank you so much, Sue!!

[@cindychambers1588]

The only reason I don't do a lot of your paintings is because I am SLOW! I love every single bit of your work. This is beautiful.. you ROCK, and thank you so much. I will get to work on some of these eventually!

[@PaintingwithJane]

What's wrong with being slow?! Speed isn't the goal, nor is it an indicator of a good painter, friend. Thank you so much

[@cindychambers1588]

Jane I've been seeing the paintings of the group members on this one.. they are ROCKING it! It really is a gorgeous painting!

[@iriscordero2952]

Cindy Chambers . I consider myself a slow painter, but I don't care. because of my age I think (66) and my back pains. But I made several Janes s tutorials (pause button) (thanks Jane!) and a japanese girl for my granddaughter and I was 6 days 4 hours a day or more, but I finished and she loves it. The most important part is enjoy and have fun.

[@luckyissy302]

Jane, you are such an angel. Thank you so much for showing your process to come up with a painting. That's so helpful! I always feel like I need to come up with an idea on my own so this was most helpful. And the painting is gorgeous and looks like the perfect way to Zen after a long day at work. Thank you so much for sharing.

[@PaintingwithJane]

You're so welcome! I'm glad the process was helpful to you and took a little of the mystery out of it. I know it can be challenging to start coming up with your own ideas

[@ТетянаДимченко-м6и]

Как хорошо,что нашла ваш канал по рисованию акрилом!!!Спасибо огромное за уроки.С наступающим Новым годом!Добра и процветания! Донецк.

[@wandaspratt2004]

I have watched this several times. I'm going to give it a try today. Thanks for your wonderful teaching. It is most helpful.

[@PaintingwithJane]

You're so welcome, Wanda, and thank YOU! I hope you have an amazing time painting

[@claudettekiwan9894]

thank you again Jane, you are an amazing person, your detailed and step by step explanation, made me love to paint because of the way you simplify the process. thank you.

[@PaintingwithJane]

Aw, Claudette, thank you so much, friend

[@donnapaliotti6397]

Almost 7500 views!!! That's because you are so good at what you do. Thank you for another incredible painting. Great idea getting a sponsor and using that site. I'm going to pass on the info to other people I know.

[@PaintingwithJane]

Thank you, Donna!

[@chrisg0108]

Jane, You are an excellent teacher (and artist). Your step by step tutorials and continuous instructions are excellent. I have learned a lot watching your techniques and listening to your tips. Wish my hands were are steady as yours. Thank you for your time to show the rest of us. :)

[@PaintingwithJane]

Thank you so much, Christina! Even if your hand isn't steady, work with it! It will help you develop your own unique style

[@lucki1313]

Hi Jane, I must say I really enjoy your videos, the music in the background is perfect for these videos, you have such a nice calm voice as well... I like the fact that you explain how and why your doing it that way to get the effects that you get... I am going to give this one a go, that's a given ...Its time I toss this depression aside, after losing my sister and my sister in-law. . . rather feel guilty for living, Enough of that though, time to let the sun or (snow) hit me in the face and move forward. I really agree with Tina Sawhey, I would really enjoy learning how to do an angel by you !!! That would be just brilliant . . . will try and send you a pic. of Blue Christmas painting when I'm done, sure hope I can do it justice. Thank you ever so much for sharing your time and your talent with us all !!! God Bless you and yours . . .

[@PaintingwithJane]

Aw, Carolyn

[@Susiequigley]

I look forward to your paintings every week! When I see that notification pop up on KZbin I can't wait to see what's in store! You are an excellent teacher and I have learned so much from watching your videos! Thank you for sharing another wonderful painting.

[@PaintingwithJane]

Thank you so much, Susan! That means the world to me

[@sandeelaing241]

Thanks Jane! I painted this twice and love both!

[@PaintingwithJane]

Awesome, Sandee!! I'm so glad you enjoyed it

[@blueredcross]

Wow I really hope that Graphic Stock compensated well for this, usually marketing is only 30 seconds long in a youtube video. Also great sponsor as it is totally something we all can use. Keep painting you are doing great

[@PaintingwithJane]

Thank you so much, Duane! I did show a little more of them than I normally would, but I've really been wanting to show my process for awhile now. I can't use Pinterest or Google when I make a video, because I can't even show work if it's under copyright. They didn't request that I use the sight that much, lol. I'm glad you enjoyed it! GraphicStock is pretty awesome :)

[@visheshkamboj6260]

Very nice. Left lower corner is giving a very realistic bokeh effect.

[@PaintingwithJane]

Yay!! Thank you so much, Vishesh!!

[@gloriaketcher4223]

I share all of your videos with friends. I enjoy them so much.

[@christinar8197]

Hi Jane! I was just browsing KZbin for a (last minute!) Christmas painting idea and saw this and it looks so beautiful. I am going to go out today and get some supplies, so I can't wait to try it. I've never had a painting class and have only tried painting on canvas twice, (basically no clue what I'm doing) and I just realized one of those times was when I watched your tutorial of the Midnight Raven! I was so happy with how it turned out, and have to credit you for your amazing teaching skills--I couldn't believe that I could ever make something like that. You have such a helpful way of explaining how to use and clean brushes and tips about what strokes work best for you. So now I am even more excited to try this painting now that I know you've been my teacher before (haha). So thank you!! You are amazing.

[@PaintingwithJane]

Aaaw, Christina, that's so awesome! I'm so glad you tried that raven and loved him. I hope you love painting this one too, and I would love to see how it turns out!!

[@vani_aparna]

Hi Jane, I painted the blue Christmas on 14"x16" canvas sheet. it came out good but nothing close to yours. I am glad I tried. I am from India. Thanx for motivating me.

[@PaintingwithJane]

You're so welcome, Vani! I'm very proud of you

[@vani_aparna]

Painting with Jane I have posted my paintings on your FB Page, hope you can see them. Thanks.

[@grandmabarby]

Jane you are amazing and easy to listen to and SO CALM~~~ Thank you for sharing your talent and making it believable that I TOO can be talented.

[@reneebriggs8160]

I've just painted this gorgeous picture today, my first painting and I'm in love! I found the hardest part was getting the little dots consistent but its not too bad for a first go haha! Thank you Jane!

[@AlyOop543]

Very pretty. Looking forward to trying this over the weekend.

[@PaintingwithJane]

Thank you, Jan! Enjoy :D

[@tracyhays751]

This is my most favorite one you've done, though I love them all. This painting would look beautiful in anyone's home for the holidays and it is. Completely different from the others I have seen. They all seem to lead. Towards Whimsical and cute. Thanks again for all of your help.

[@PaintingwithJane]

Wow, Tracy, thank you so much. You're so very sweet

Merry Christmas, Jane. Thank you for this pretty painting. I always enjoy your work and your voice is calming.
