Is That House Abandoned?


When I'm painting a house, I'm always curious who lives there.


They usually don't notice me at all—or they pretend not to. But sometimes they come near to check out what I'm doing.


In this case I assumed the house was abandoned. I had never seen anyone come or go from there. Over the years, the house has been falling farther and farther into ruin. So I was surprised when there were signs of life (Link to video on YouTube).

  1. James,
    Your latest is again great. I've watched them all now and I am amazed at the amount of creative information you pack into these brief lessons. After a couple years with watercolor and gouche I can safely say I learn more from watching these than some that go on for an hour. I did purchase your "Gouche in the Wild" series. It cemented your place as one of my favorites. Thank you for sharing your gifts. Keep up the good work.
    God bless.

  2. I love the music and the lighting for this one too. So much fun. I was working on a portrait recently and it was going poorly, in the back of my mind I heard your voice from a previous video saying, trust the process. Glad I followed that advice because the double portrait worked out great in the end. Thanks for the great videos and advice!
