I was able to purchase your book and now I just finished watching your DVD that was my favorite Christmas present! I am anxiously waiting and hoping for the day I may attend one of your workshops in Seattle, Washington at perhaps Daniel Smith!!!! I must tell you the DVD was a tremendous help. To actually watch your work in progress makes much more sense to me now. I will go back and re read the book and give it a go. As a drawing teacher/oil painter, I have always wanted to just sketch with watercolors instead of all the fussy stuff I see. Now I think I have more of an inkling of how to start and go about that fun loose free experience. I am taking local water color classes that teaches me a lot of the fussy stuff. It's good and can be incorporated, but now I have more confidence to just let go and have fun. I am astounded by your preliminary watercolor sketching and how closely you work with water, not just the pigment. Well here goes to another new year of exploration for me. I do hope you will be having more video's coming out soon!!!!a woman who ishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17136374470040601602noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2195072925691815944.post-66127650041809081292012-01-03T13:57:42.354-08:002012-01-03T13:57:42.354-08:00I purchased your CD because I love your paintings....I purchased your CD because I love your paintings...no surprise, I love the DVD too! You approach watercolor with such low key, relaxing confidence and sense of whimsy. It is delightful and inspiring! I subscribed by email to your blog and very much enjoy your posts. Hope 2012 is even more amazing for you than 2011 was! I'm very much looking forward to your new book.Carole Pivarnikhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06787775846290065794noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2195072925691815944.post-12993084414113127382011-12-31T10:28:22.441-08:002011-12-31T10:28:22.441-08:00Happy New Year Jean, 2011 is the year I was one of...Happy New Year Jean, 2011 is the year I was one of the many buyers of your excellent DVD, and still pour over your book. I am an admirer not only of your work, but of the love of watercolor... you express the joy and wonder I feel with watercolor... it can be magical and frightening... but when it's good it is very good. I'm looking forward to your new book and wish you the very best in 2012... and thank you for the pleasure you brought to me in 2011.Capt Elaine Magliacanehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10919763270702138153noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2195072925691815944.post-79970929075178569332011-12-31T07:09:13.030-08:002011-12-31T07:09:13.030-08:00herkese mutlu yıllar..herkese mutlu yıllar..notdefterimdenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12420715786719585992noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2195072925691815944.post-60141286422703475622011-12-31T05:47:57.391-08:002011-12-31T05:47:57.391-08:00Jean Thank you so much for sharing your adventures...Jean Thank you so much for sharing your adventures with us.
