  1. Awesome. I've learnt a lot by watching your painting, which I have incorporated into my style of landscape painting.

  2. En medio de una crisis social que hoy vive mi país, me doy un tiempo para despejar mi mente y deleitarme con tu pintura. Saludos desde Chile.

  3. Wow! John! Incredible as always! Just a question, do you thin your paints with just water though? I've heard other artists say it breaks the bonds in the paint and it should be some flow improving product? No idea myself as I'm not a fine artist, and I doubt anyone will ever want to keep my work, but I was just curious? Much respect for your talent. Bless you.

    1. @Art of John Magne Lisondra brilliant! Thank you for taking the time out of your busy day to answer that!

    2. thank you Melissa... yes I only used water to thin the acrylics... but it's not recommended to put plenty as it breaks the bonds... that's why I just used it on the underpainting. when I added the next layers or the details, I made sure that it's almost as pure... You can use retarders or other gels to keep the bonds while making it flow.

    1. @Art of John Magne Lisondra ... thanks and , do you speak spanish ? Right? ... and if you speak ¿Can you make more videos in spanish? Pls

  4. This is jaw dropping and incredible! Thank you for making it possible for us to being able to paint such masterpieces. Huge respect😊

  5. Love your painting of Venice, I love the way you only use 4 colours and the white, I am amazed at the beautiful colours you get with a limited pallet. You are a master of painting that is for sure! A real pleasure to watch you paint these, thank you so much for sharing.

  6. Woww !! I've been waiting for this for a long time-Venice my favourite city!! I don't know how busy you might be but could you please consider doing classical painting tutorials? I understand they might take a long time cuz they are portraits and really complicated ones but i think that would be amazing and I'll take your account to the next step😍😍if not that (because i can understand why) could you condider doing a painting of Greek islands(Santorini,Mykonos) or the pantheon in Athens (im from Greece)? I would really appreciate it because painting is such a big passion to me and you are such an amzing teacher

    1. hello Emma, thank you very much! I think it would be great.. I love classical paintings also... I will try it in the future..
