Wonderful painting Jed, so inspiring too! Thanks for sharing your knowledge!

[@reneekroyer5104]

Love the negative painting for the trees in the background. I'd love to see some more like this.

[@maldismit8163]

Hi Jed I'm absolutely fascinated with your technique, especially with the negative painting! I'm a novice but my life has become so exciting since I started painting with acrylics. I feel drawn to your manner of painting, the contrasts in the colors you use... Thank you for the tutorials!!! Kind regards Maldi Smit (South Africa)

[@judithwinter3688]

Thank You for doing videos of acrylic painting landscapes. I struggle but this makes it look like I can manage. Love your art!

Love this style of painting. Thank you Jed.

[@iRachaelMiller]

I’m so used to doing bright colors in the foreground and cooler colors in the background. But this technique totally works too!

[@Jailbird3]

This is beautiful! You are a master of negative painting.

[@JedDorsey]

Thank you so much 😀 I love the results it gives. . . so much easier than actively painting all the trees imo

[@anneklein3864]

Fun to see how it came together.

[@2fidale]

This is my favorite demo! I love it.

[@giselegilfillan2553]

Love your technique using the sky - the negative space idea - it's so brilliant. It's beyond me at this time but something I want to work toward! The painting is bright and beautiful!

[@JedDorsey]

[@juanamoreland5670]

Enjoyed seeing the evolution of this process, light background, moving to foreground with darker and lighter contrasts, certainly see the vibrant yet subtle separation, beautiful.

[@cynthiacrane204]

Love ❤️ it another fabulous Tool . The wealth of information that each day brings is so exciting.

[@rajashridasharath5583]

Loved this technique! Will definitely try it! Thank you for sharing.

[@Karen-dt8zo]

I love the negative painting and have been working on learning how. To start, could I use an acrylic pen to lightly mark where to place the bright color to form the trees to help get used to doing it? This is so pretty and I could watch these lessons all day!

[@nathaliedepelteau7505]

This is the kind of painting I want to do thank you

[@angiebyrdpersonal5345]

Fantastic background technique!

[@oty2012hy]

The light focal area you painted straight down instead of circular, very brilliant painting 🧡

[@sandylee1717]

[@philliportiz1864]

Great technique! Very helpful.

[@terrierose5917]

Excellent painting, you make it look so easy

[@hughpearson3574]

wonderful Jed!

[@jazw4649]

Love this technique of creating a light source and adding faint indications of trees with white. I would never have considered yellow for a background like this, and only using a small amount of blue in the river, but it turned out so great! Thank you for sharing. I would love to see you paint light through a forest... I think I saw you do a demo of light through a forest for some art supply company and I've wanted to go back and watch it again but I have no idea where to find it.

[@JedDorsey]

Thanks and for sure, and I will do another light through the trees demo!

[@helenenoyer9249]

Loving your lessons. Question: I recently sprayed Varnish over a finushed water color... only a light spray ( made for w/c, acrylic, or oil!) It left my piece ALL MILKY. Now I am afraid to varnish again!!

[@BrianSmith-fe9he]

Very Stephen Quiller esque

[@eddieyoung3856]

🤯

[@dagraham8053]

Which brand/type of acrylic marker did you use here? The ones I've found are not that small.

[@judyheim3949]

Oh my gosh. I accidentally just hit Dislike so subtract any dislikes you got by one! I did hit Like after that.
