Rajiv and I are about to go out to the local Ren-Fair to see Elizabeth's tent for reading cards .. Yesterday while the pots were drying he did a watercolor of the wall and trees behind the pottery ..It is so beautiful seeing the image emerge from light to dark..If you want a light place it needs to be left as you add the colors..Wonderful to see .. Ps I am just getting up and I can smell Rajiv made muffins this morning :)

THIS is one of the reasons to love YouTube šš¾

This video is like slowly waking up in your beautifully comfortable bed, the softly dappled morning sun shining through the open window, and just laying there, listening to the birdsong, knowing you have nowhere else you need to be.
-
Quiet, deliberate, slow, beautiful... we are lucky to have Rajiv remind us of what it is to be human.
-
You won me over a very long time ago, Rajiv. I watch everything, but this morning, I needed to watch you paint pears. I needed to see your process and your incredible gift. I am blown away and so happy for you. I hope you are, too.
-
I thought I just needed to be alone this morning but found what I really needed was to sit quietly on the patio watching the finches in the bird bath and Rajiv painting pears. Thank you.
-
We comment on the excellent content, but the videography, music, and editing combine to take it to the stratosphere. Great production values.
-
Tip" if you lightly wet your paper and allow it to dry, very little if no wrinkling or bumping of the paper will occur when you apply wet color. Love the silence too.
-
Thank you for the silence and the peaceā¤

What a coincidence that you posted this video the day after I treated my long-neglected inner artist to a tin of watercolours and a little block of watercolour paper. Like Cindy Brown commented below, this video brought me to tears, and I'm wondering why. Perhaps because it hit hard that this is what we humans really ought to be doing with ourselves: being creative instead of destructive. Please do more painting videos! xxx

So gifted! A True Renaissance Man!

How can the watercolor painting of two simple pears, bring me to tears? Rajiv, Thank you sincerely. š
-
This is the only ASMR video I can tolerate. Thereās no annoying whispering etc. This is so much better!
-
I look forward to Saturday mornings, just to see what you're up to. I'm never disappointed. šššššš
-
Please make more watercolor videos! This was an absolute joy to watch.
-
I was concentrating so hard on your process for painting that I didn't even think about the fact you didn't speak one word. The music was perfect. I hope you framed those perfect pears.
-
Rajiv, I don't think there is any thing about you that's imperfect. You are one amazing human being! Thanks for sharing pieces of you and your life with us. It's always inspiring.
-
A master painter knows what the water will and will not do; Rajiv demonstrates this to perfection!
-
Rajiv, this was so simple, pleasant, and peaceful. Thank you.
-
He makes everything so beautiful and civilised,what a gem.
