Recently I had the chance to make plenty of watercolor postcards for a friend in Amsterdam, and here are some. I hope you like them.

Thank you for your kind compliments Fletch.
I already have shared a few watercolor videos on YouTube and I hope you find them handy. Here is one of them ( mute the sound plz as I was noob in editing when I created it):

Lately, I spent some time finalizing and publishing a new short Skillshare course. This is after grand masters; James Fletcher-Watson and Edward Seago. I have tried to simplify and describe everything in detail:

I feel the same way about my first video tutorials.

Your video was very inspirational and made me immediately want to start painting again!

The music in the background is the only distracting part. I really enjoyed hearing your voice for the first time! I would prefer silence more than background music and your calm voice. But this is what I prefer these days - and past 10 years, actually, peace and quiet and calm videos... advoko makes youtube channel and clickspring youtube channel are examples of that.

I'm just curious if you have ever heard of an american painter who is very famous for doing painting tutorials starting 40 years ago? His name is Bob Ross? He is massively popular because of his calming videos. Check him out just for fun.

I mostly watch Thomas Schaller painting videos in watercolor lately.

Oh dear friend I did not know the music is distracting. Sorry for that. I am working on it and hopefully will be better.
By the way, if it has been encouraging to you to start painting again, I have done my job.
Yeah Bob Ross was very inspiring and I used to watch his painting after school and learned to take my early steps.
Thanks for sharing links, I will definitely check them out, sir.


Yeay, Thomas was my hero during university. There was one of his books on watercolor rendering in the university library and it was my Bible! I wish to meet him in person one day.
