Gentle Giant.
by: Anonymous

I just came back from France where we stayed in a mill by a field of cows and horses. When I got home and checked my e-mails I found the 'Gentle Giant' video. I feel inspired to take my photos and turn them into watercolour sketches. Thanks Bob. As always nice and easy to follow.

I have found all the videos clear, full of useful information and inspiring. Your point about not throwing anything away is one to remember - I hardly ever keep anything and then wish I had. After a few weeks it doesn't look so bad after all. Your other point about not fiddling everything to death also applies. Looking forward to the launch.

Just one thing
by: Lynda Finn NZ

It's brilliant and your videos are teaching me a lot but one thing - in the horse above and other videos, you don't always say whether the paint it dry. For instance, you do a red base coat then add brown to darken - is the base coat completely dry? Beginners need this kind of precise information. Many thanks

I like to play with watercolor but can never really accomplish much.Now I am inspired and excited and can't wait to try again. Thank you again for this very generous contribution to us emerging artists! Doreen

Paper?

What kind of paper are you doing this painting on. You said cartridge paper , and I don't know what that is. Also, what brand water colors do you use?
