Ma il disegno è stato stampato?

[@thomaswschaller]

@@vincenzosasso9555 The drawing was not printed. It was hand-drawn directly on the paper before the painting

Thank you

[@richardfuchs5131]

The left side arched opening is stark white, yet should be in shadow even darker than the shaded area as the interior is also in deep shadow. The fact you left it makes it stand out like a sore thumb. On a positive note: I totally enjoyed this painting and learned a lot about the way you did the sky and clouds. Thank you.

[@thomaswschaller]

in the finished painting, it is not stark white

[@saral.1933]

Pretty sky!!! And done so easily. It’s a nice alteration between soft edges and a bit of hard edges.

[@RenateWaas]

wow - this is amazing! Thank you so much - I love Villa Rotunda and I love your watercolor of it.

Bravo Thomas! Mycket inspirerande. Jättebra! Tack så mycket I väntan på nästa avsnitt hälsningar från Sverige.

[@thomaswschaller]

Thank you

[@marywilliamson2559]

Thank you, Maestro. You've created a clean, well-stated art piece as usual. I tried yellow in my landscape skies, and it came out looking more like smog. I will endeavor to try your technique again.

[@thomaswschaller]

@@marywilliamson2559 cheers Mary . Ochre is a sky sometimes works better than a fresher yellow might - they tend to go green. Not always bad but often not what you want

[@lizhopewell0507]

The sky is amazing. I really struggle with skies, they never go how I would like them to.

[@JudyAnoh]

Thank you so much Sir for this tutorial, I am struggling much with water Colour

[@thomaswschaller]

Don't struggle too much - Just breathe , relax, use water, and remember it's just a lot of fun . And if the painting isn't "perfect" - you're on the right path

[@annawolf4297]

I just found your channel and I almost can't believe you put out so much quality content for free! I'm hitting the membership button right away. I discovered your work on instagram and I'm amazed, such beautiful pieces. The light, the mood, the architecture

It's rare to find such a beautiful and realistic "sky in watercolour" tutorial 🎨👍🏻 About your Manganese Blue, what brand do you use ?

[@thomaswschaller]

MAny thanks! It's just one way - but it often works. The Manganese I use is by Holbein

[@RonMCristobal]

Hi Thomas. Is your "liner brush" [the one you use for landscaping] custom made? Its effects on trees is marvelous! If so, how did you make it? Thanks. Ron from the Philippines.

[@thomaswschaller]

Hi Ron - No - not custom. Many people make them - but DaVinci Brushes Casseneo Series 5599 is maybe the best - It is available on Amazon

[@RonMCristobal]

Thanks Thomas. Your paintings are really excellent. Love them all. Keep it up. So inspiring!!!​@@thomaswschaller

[@ashishjadeja8944]

when you put the shadows in your Artwork it just brings them to life, specially the mix or the pallette you use are extraordinary, I presume they are complementary colours and are very similar to Van Gogh's palette, it takes years to master your signature colours to bring the painting to life. I am learning and try as I may I invariably gravitate to matching the colours of the visual or any object and giving to much detail. in other words simply copying the image from photo to the paper, works out well but it does not give me satisfaction and makes me feel lack of creativity.

[@thomaswschaller]

Thanks so much - Yes - my shadows are almost always a study in complements. Here - Violets and Yellows - This helps to add a little electricity and energy more than simply flat grey tones would

[@jcline147]

Thanks very much for this tutorial. I was watching something this past Friday here… about 9 pm PDT…I was about to make a comment on your sky…as I try to practice a “sky a day”. I tried to post it, and all of a sudden..the tutorial was “ poof” gone. I’m assuming it was just meant for your patrons perhaps, and placed on general KZbin by accident. Skies can definitely be difficult for me.

[@thomaswschaller]

Thanks - This is meant as a replacement for that video - I took it down - It was not as clear or helpful as I think this one may be

[@jcline147]

@@thomaswschaller well I was fascinated with it …so I thought it was really good, ha! I like skies that are stormy ..so it’s hard for me to try to paint a cloud that’s a bit more crisp, if you know what I mean. It seems like we get heavy, gray, and sometimes green gray clouds that roll in from the Pacific with the wind …and get abutted by the Cascade mountains that we have in the Pacific Northwest….so, I’m more used to seeing them than the crisp ones as is here. Thanks again for a great tutorial.

[@triciashaw1973]

Truly inspiring work🥰! Is the Mineral Violet pigment a Holbein paint ? And do you add another pigment to it - it appears a little greyish???

[@thomaswschaller]

Yes - Mineral Violet is by Holbein. One reason I like it is because it is easily modified - Bere I used a bit of Neutral Tint to make it a bit more grey

Thomas, the thumbnail shows a lot more purple in the lower sky, and less of the brownish layer, than what we see in the video. I really like the purple, did you add that in later ?

[@thomaswschaller]

It's the same painting - The lights on my video setup sometimes bleach out too much color - so I will adjust them. The thumbnail is a regular - more accurate - photo

[@raziaabbasi2488]

Please do more of sky your work is amazing I simply love it
