    Your use of the brush with restraint is fascinating. I love the use of the”blooms” without trying to correct them.
  • @jeannes
    Your painting style reminds me of when I get a flash of memory of some happy time I had almost forgotten about, where the details are a little undefined here and there, but the feeling comes back to me with a big burst of emotion. The way you layer and add blooms and switch it up between opaque and translucent and have hints of dry brush texture -- it's very evocative and effective. I also wanted to mention that the New Gamboge + Perylene Red you started with is such a delicious color of orange.

    This was exquisite. Rarely do I see someone with such a solid vision of what they want to do. Thank you.
  • @jtpaar1732
    That was well done and really enjoyable to watch. I'm totally amazed you got anything to look so good on that horrid paper! Think I'm gonna sub and see what other tricks you can pull off (wink).
  • @sculptor210
    So beautiful and spirited...thank you for sharing your process!
  • @jolonbankey4146
    Very beautiful. I would really love to see and would send you some 100% cotton paper to see your technique on decent paper. That Canson XL doesn't deserve you!
  • @TinyNeuron
    Your glazing and layering are always on point when it comes to values. You capture the light and dark areas really well. Would you do a values tutorial and how you apply the glazing technique? How do you plan where the dark and light areas would be?
  • @suresh.karthikeyan
    Gorgeous stuff 👏👏👏 With the use of multiple pigments and tonal values, you have further enhanced the beauty of this intelligent bird.

    I like the sense of fluidity in this. Very nice !
  • @nancye7520
    Nice techniques! The result conveys a lot of action, feathered, flight… ❤
