I'm 83 years old and your kind way of teaching painting is so appreciated. Thank you so much 💓 🎉

[@ColorByFeliks]

You are so welcome!

[@AutumnSieminski]

I am 79. I really appreciate you!❤️

[@marilyntischleder3860]

I was riveted through the end. It’s wonderful that you take the time to offer this free to those of us wanting to begin to paint. Thanks for showing what colors, number and brands of the paints. I can’t wait to begin!

[@TheOrrsomerob]

I've just found your work on Tube and cannot believe that a 57 year old engineer is not only amazed at your talent but is seriously keen on trying this himself! Your step by step work is simple to understand and so helpful to all who watch your blank canvas turn into a fantastic piece of art, you should be very proud!!!! Both my wife and myself will soon try our first attempts with your guidance close to hand and look forward to seeing more of your work in the future. Your talent is beyond words......

[@ColorByFeliks]

Thank you so much! I’m so grateful to hear the lessons could be helpful for you and your wife 😁 I have lots of free step by step lessons here on KZbin and if you want to go more in-depth I highly suggest my mentorship program where I put out new lessons each month and we have a supportive art community: learn.colorbyfeliks.com/mentorship

[@ShawnMajdi]

He is not just talented he’s definitely a hard worker on the Art, and it’s nice of him to share his hard work with us I think to say it to an artist you’re talented it’s almost like an insult ,thank you though

[@ninamarie9827]

I live in an over 55 community and miss the sound of children playing ...... I kept stopping the video to hear where it was coming from and then realized it was on your end. Thank you for this great tutorial AND the beautiful sound of happy children :)

[@nancyyen1]

I like that you explain in-depth the brushes, paints you use thank you

[@anjuannmathew]

Everyone wants to have a time .... but you won’t spend time!

[@lynnquin8565]

I painted this on a wood 'canvas' for my daughter and she loved it! I didn't think I could achieve the smooth blending of the sunlight and blue sky but your tutorial explained and demonstrated everything so clearly. Thank you for sharing this beautiful project.

[@raludemsa]

Yes

[@patriciacarter9774]

I've always heard people talk about depth of a painting & I never understood what they meant. NOW I do! You have succeeded in making me understand it. I've learned why layering is so important! Thank you!!!

[@huiliu7292]

Thank you! I followed lots of painter on KZbin, but I have to say you are the best! You need to know how much you changed my painting life. Before I found this viedo, I almost lost the confidence to learn further. Thank you for being so in detail, you are really great, not only in painting beautiful modern arts, but also in teaching. Pls keep on going! Hearts+hearts...

[@lenak6073]

Thank you for spending about 2 hours for tutoring us. It was very helpful lesson! The picture is very beautiful!

[@suefortune-duffy1202]

Watching your beautiful work has kept me sane these last couple of days. Fab.

[@NannaTube57]

Hi Feliks, Thank you for your wonderful easy to follow video. My 84 yo Mother has been asking me to paint her some poppies. Your video was excellent for someone who's not overly confident at painting. The way you give out the details of the colours, brushes and equipment required helped me to follow you. Even though I didn't have all the items required I improvised and loved the final outcome of my painting. Thank you and keep up the good work. God Bless Sue, Australia

[@gloprn52]

Love your poppies can almost feel the warmth of the sun. Cheers.

[@mariapopescu2025]

Had a great time painting this poppies field with you! Many thanks.

My Son, 35 and Grandson 6, are moving into their own place and I've been searching for some paintings that would be fitting of a masculine household yet brighten up the home. I was so excited when I found this piece. I think its perfect.

[@TheDebernator]

I absolutely love every painting you have done, and I've followed you as I painted the poppies. I gave it to a grandson who loved it. I want to do the train next.

[@ColorByFeliks]

[@nancykerner]

Thank you so much for your great tutorials! I've painted many years with china paints, and find the acrylics a new challenge. Living in Arizona where the humidity is 10% I find the paints dry so fast! You are a great instructor!

[@ClariceAust]

You know nancy that you can buy mediums for acrylic that will slow down the drying; just ask your art shop.

[@evelyneleizour6644]

Quelle poésie !!! Ce tableau est lumineux. Merci

[@ColorByFeliks]

You are so welcome! Thank you for your kind feedback and support! 😊

[@miadodson1938]

Thank you so much for this, for taking the time to help beginners like me ❤️

[@loreenjacobs6207]

I don’t know where you live, but after trying to follow your blending instructions through several videos, I finally get it. It’s not my fault. My acrylic paint, in spite of having a bit of medium and water mixed in, dries very quickly. I cannot blend dry paint. I need to do each poppy independently and completely to have any blending success. Is there anyone else having the same problem because of the low humidity where you live?

[@marifloyd1543]

If you go to a beauty supply store, they have these water bottles that have a continuous spray now, the more you pump the trigger, the longer it will spray, but the spray is a very fine mist, almost like an atomizer so you could try that to keep your painting a bit more hydrated for blending purposes. I keep one next to me just in case in the summer and a quick mist doesn't hurt the painting at all and gives more open time to blend.

[@kymzaja3754]

Try spritzing the backside of your canvas before you paint! Also ,I use a wet paper towel under a piece of wax paper to put my paints on when I'm painting. It helps keep my paints from drying out and the damp canvas keeps my paint from drying too quickly on my canvas. I can't afford the expensive paints but I heard that the more quality paint is easier to blend and stays moist longer. That's what I've noticed anyway from most tutorials. My paint will dry quickly if I don't blend right away. Try misting your canvas on the backside before painting and use the wet paper towel under the wax paper and see if that helps. Enjoy painting!

[@rossannamann791]

Yes, same happened to me, the painting dried too quickly i even bought a additive to slow the paint drying but still ...blending is hard for me.

[@pureintentions7]

I love your detailed work. Its beautiful.

[@lelastearns9974]

I have totally enjoyed watching this video. Learned a lot also. I have been way too “tight” with my art, seeing you work has given me more insight into “loosing” up. Thanks a ton!

[@konahvanormondt1583]

Thank you so much for this great tutorial i am a beginner but its such a beauty. So I’ll try To come close

[@nancyyen1]

So amazing the colors you used to create this piece
