I love how your videos are like your paintings: energizing, but also calming and inspiring. Thank you for sharing your process, but also offering a peek into how you set up your studio and do the more mundane things like framing. So helpful. Thank you for the time and effort you put into your videos. And, like @PaulWalesArt says, it's more like a conversation with a friend than just a how-to-do-it.

[@TimSchofieldArt]

Thanks so much Robin. 🙂 I've been away for the last week and just seeing your comment. I'm really glad that the videos feel more like a conversation - I'm on a journey of learning as much as anyone is and I wouldn't want to make videos that seemed not to reflect that. The next video is definitely in that vein - it's been a while coming but it'll be up very soon! Thanks again. 😁

[@LadyPoppet]

Your art is absolutely stunning! 😍

[@TimSchofieldArt]

Thanks so much, Joanne! I'm glad you like it. 😄

[@PaulWalesArt]

Another incredible video Tim. Feels like connecting with a friend. Glad your demo went well!

[@TimSchofieldArt]

Really appreciate it, D C! 😁

Hey Tim, I absolutely loved this vlog-like format!! Thanks once again for the inspiration 🌞 I bought some watercolor and 100% blaming you for that!

[@TimSchofieldArt]

Great to hear from you again! I am very happy to take the blame for that. 😄 I hope that you enjoy them as much as I do.

[@Ganna4]

Another great video! The music goes so well with everything you are doing. Cant wait for the next one!

[@TimSchofieldArt]

Thanks, Ganna! I spend some time picking out the music so I'm glad you think so! 😀

[@andreatorraca8755]

Not odd,but a pleasant find,love when that happens!

[@yvonnegeelen6571]

You are an amazing watercolour painter wish I lived closer to watch a live demo please keep demoing on KZbin look fawards to watching you on KZbin

[@TimSchofieldArt]

Thanks so much, Yvonne. 🙂 That's really kind. Appreciate your support!

[@petalparker5]

Your spatula reminds me of a catalyst wedge. They’re also good for painting a straight line and blending.

[@TimSchofieldArt]

You're right they're quite similar, I have a wedge too that I sometimes use with acrylics.

[@loveartlove]

smart!! thank you, love and gratitude

[@Lore666-s9h]

Art for me is expressive and free, i loved!

[@TimSchofieldArt]

Freedom is the name of the game! 😁

[@dawndonly1489]

Thank you for these moments of tranquility. I save your videos like little gems. When I need reflection, inspiration, or just a break from my own thoughts. I, like you, can't retain all my thoughts for lengthy times. There truly isn't a more satisfying thing than the feel of paper under hand, leaving one's impressions.

[@TimSchofieldArt]

Thanks, Dawn. 🙂 I'm glad to hear they're helpful. I agree there's a unique satisfaction in getting your thoughts out!

[@tomhoward8304]

Inspiring, time for me to give something like this a try, thank you Tim.

[@TimSchofieldArt]

You're so welcome, Tom! I hope that enjoy it. Thank you for your kind comment. Let me know how you get on! :)

[@iikusodai]

Happy to see an update, Tim. Well done ☺️ as always!

[@TimSchofieldArt]

Thank you @iikusodai! 😄 Much appreciated as ever and glad that you liked it. 🙏

[@matthewstokes1608]

Nice work there!

[@TimSchofieldArt]

Thanks, Matthew :)

[@d1780174]

I really like your point of using the spatula as it does not soak up water. Have you tried using silicone sculpting tools? They are shaped like paintbrushes and may give you some interesting options. If you do, I would love to see what you create! Beautiful work!

[@TimSchofieldArt]

I haven't tried sculpting tools but this is a great idea. I'll definitely check them out, thank you! 🙂

[@gabriellapaparo7599]

Hi, your drawings are wonderful. Tell me where I can buy your magic brush. Tanks

[@Centannicocktails]

Hello Tim❤ I would love to know about the board you have the paper on.. thank you❤😊

[@carina8806]

Hey Tim, it feels amazing to watch your videos! Right now, I’m excited to try using a spatula for my watercolor paintings, so thanks for the tip! I’ve somehow never thought about it and only used those palette knives so far… I’m really happy to see what’s to come! You are doing a wonderful job with your creativity and with encouraging/motivating other artists :) Big thanks ☺️

[@TimSchofieldArt]

Hey Carina, thanks so much that means a lot! The spatula works great over palette knives, particularly for avoiding scratching the paper. 🙂 Enjoy the process. 😁

[@carina8806]

@@TimSchofieldArt i most certainly will :) and thank you so much for answering literally every comment 😊 i imagine that being quite funny - to jump between moods xD

[@dorothygladsjo3510]

Tim, do you ever just wet back of paper then flip over and wet front to paint? I’m new to all art but found this way I do not have to tape…. Thank you for this video!

[@TimSchofieldArt]

Hey Dorothy :) I have done this and it can work great! I prefer taping a painting down because I like having the paper on a firm surface. I tend to move the painting around a lot and that can be more difficult for me to do without making a mess if the paper is loose, but if you want to avoid taping the piece, wetting the back of the paper can be a great way to go, no doubt.

[@marigoldwood8494]

Thanks for sharing this. I have tried using a credit card to apply paint and been quite pleased with the results. Do you think your spatula is even better because it's more flexible?

[@TimSchofieldArt]

Hi Marigold! A credit card can work great, and I've also experimented making my own tools with cardboard and tape. The main difference is that this is the only tool I've found that will avoid scratching the paper. Sometimes those scratches can add a lot of character, but I find that when using a card it's difficult to control them, so this is a way to get a similar effect with a bit more control! I hope this helps. 😁

[@marigoldwood8494]

@@TimSchofieldArt Many thanks, Tim. Will definitely try and get hold of one of those spatulas and give it a go!

[@TimSchofieldArt]

@@marigoldwood8494 Sounds good :) there's a link to some in the video description if it helps! They're next to 'Painting tool'.

[@jolonbankey4146]

But what is the product! I just spent half an hour looking for it and could not find it. setup an affiliatte link! I will buy through it, and help your artistic journey! Thank you for the videoa, they are awesome. But please tell us all what that tool is. Thank you!

[@TimSchofieldArt]

Thanks for letting me know the link was missing. It used to be there, I must have accidentally removed it when updating something else. I've updated it now, it's first in the list under tools. 🙂
