When I'm stressed I watch alla of your videos over and over again it's relaxing makes me optimistic about life ❤🎉 stay blessed
Can these tips apply to cartoonish and stylized dinosaurs too?
Superb! 🎉
I just keep shaking my head in disbelief as I watch you apply each brush stroke. Broad strokes that end up looking so detailed and full of colours.
You are amazing.
What kind of psycho boomer threatens someone with dogs for painting? Jeez the world is getting messed up.
GOAT
Inspirational ♥️♥️
there is no one better..so great as a teacher and mentor in all ways..and sooo nice.
I love this so much I see it when I close my eyes at night!
New hat. Thanks
The work of a master. Just stunning. I learn so much watching these calming and inspiring videos. Thank you, dear James Gurney.
Even if I never pick up a paintbrush, I still feel inspired, having watched and listened and having sat in the meadow with you, listening to crickets. Thank you for the experience.
Thank you for creating Dinotopia.
It is the silence in-between the words, the "gaps" in the sound, that shape and give our speech its meaning. Otherwise it would be all noise. I didn't come up with that thought. I read it somewhere recently, or heard it in a tv show. I can't for the life of me remember where! But your amazing video and art reminded me of it. Inspiring, as usual. (Perhaps I read it in Three Body Problem that I recently finished, some of the readers might know the origin better than I.)
LOL “oh shoot, she just scrambled all the gumballs”
amazing
That’s amazing
Brilliant James!😀
It's so hard to slow down.
As someone who does not have an artistic mind this is really mind boggling and amazing to witness in action. Thank you so much!
You’re such a gem James. Thanks for being you.
Por favor dureme toda la vida 🥹❤️ soy fan y siempre eh amado sus videos y tengo varios de sus libros
How COOL! Can't wait to try this.
i love painting things by not painting them
Oh yes, Artists in Wonderland was great to watch. 🇪🇺😉 They had so much fun - and were so exhausted in the End 🙈 Even as I am not into spraypainting myself I got so inspired to do art. // Cute circles! I like them. Sometimes going small is the best thing to do!
I'm on last pages of your wonderful "Color and Light" book. Thank you so much for your work and terrific art knowledge!
do you know what happened to Myles Power?? he has lots of fans (myself included) who are worried and concerned.
Really cool stuff!! Enjoyed the video. Nice work!!!!
"light and dark fulfill each other". Thank you, Mr James.
I've watched a particular pencil artist who always uses this technique. Thanks to you, I now know the name of it. Cheers!
Ok, I certainly did not expect to cry watching a painting video! Thanks for the wonderful painting and instruction❤
I especially like the way you handled the stems.... more negative painting. 🎉❤😊
🤍🤍🤍

Awesome, thanks for sharing!
Thank you! This has really helped me with background work. Good to see a new video
Milking barn!! Yeaaa boiii
If you want a art tutorial, you'll have to slow down the video. The video is hard to follow because of the speed ups. I understand why the speed ups, but hard to follow. This video is informative and that is all.
I worked on a negative painting once. It didn't matter how hard I tried, it kept telling me I'd never make it as an artist.
I love the new opening song at 0:20 !
add a cat
That was SO helpful- I’m trying to figure out how to paint a forest floor full of yellow Camas lilies interspersed with tall waving green grass
Another great lesson!
Amazing how you know what lesson i need just when i am forgetting what to do. thank you!
OMG !!!!
Once again, so wonderful. Thanks for taking us with you-makes me want to go back to our local Botanic Gardens this week and try my hand at the negative spaces❤
I like 👍👍👍👍
i envy and pity those who havent followed james for a longer time. you probably have a lot to watch and learn, which I wish I did (got stuff to practice and discover on my own, just not a lot of great videos left to watch), but its too bad you haven't been able to apply and learn from this great material before now, cause you've probably missed a lot of useful stuff.
Thank you, and that's an interesting mix of emotions. I arrived "later in life" (I was probably 35--1993) to an awareness of some of my heroes, including Winsor McCay, Adolph Menzel, and William Wordsworth. Those big influencers hit me differently in mid-life than they did in teen years. When I was 17, I was well aware of other heroes: R. Crumb, Norman Rockwell, M.C. Escher, Howard Pyle, and Albrecht Durer. It must be so different growing up now with the internet all around us.
"Cartoonify". Yes, that a nice word to express "simplifying without purpose".
