Loved this video! I actually voted for the first reference because all the boats in this foreground seemed really intimidating, thinking of how to fit them all in properly. But you make it look so doable. Thank you!

Thanks Scottie. Another very helpful and awesome tutorial. Added this one as page #3. into my first and small sketchbook. Was a bit of a challenge with all the details. Like the result. Had a lot of fun with the splatters which went all over the place. Even my iMac is now more colorful. :-) Happy days. Reinhold

I was really scared with all those lines on the maining roof and the windows. But at the end with the shadow, the white pops the lines deseaper. Thank you to sharing you art with us. Keep going.

Hi Scottie, I’m new to your Patreon channel, although I’ve followed you on YouTube for a year or more! I would like to watch on my smart tv but can’t work out how. Can you help? I’ve tried screen mirroring on Chromecast but that always just mirrors the screen shot of the set up !

Hi Scottie I’m still going through the fundamentals but really wanted to have a go at this picture. It was a lot of fun and I learnt quite a bit from doing it. My effort is a bit of a mess and the small blackbird turned into a giant chicken when I added the watercolour 😁. I know I’ll improve with practice. Thank you very much for all the hard work you must put in beforehand to make your tutorials such a joy to follow.

Ps I haven’t worked out yet how to upload my painting - not too tech savvy yet.
