Hi Gerald, in addition to what Matt already advised: Just in case you keep on having difficulties, it can be helpful to to rewind the video and start again fom an earlier minute. At least that’s what helping me out.

Hi Gerald,

This is called buffering. It occurs when your internet connection cannot keep up with the data transfer. To fix this, scroll over the video and click on the gear icon. Change the quality setting to auto or a lesser quality.

The image also shows a circular , revolving symbol ………. it’s like it’s intentional , as though I didn’t pay. Please advise.

Hi Theodore,
Yes, I practice sketching quite a bit. Drawing is fundamental to painting. These articles may be helpful…https://thevirtualinstructor.com/blog/want-to-learn-how-to-paint-better-learn-how-to-draw and https://thevirtualinstructor.com/blog/improve-your-drawing-by-developing-a-habit

I have found your fundamentals a major part of allowing me to really produce some beautiful artwork. Now I’m trying to learn more about watercolor and I want you guys to know that I really appreciate your new addition to the watercolor painting section.

When I explored this brand new course, you put a happy smile in my face. I just needed to sneak in right away and am so much looking forward to get out my water colors after finishing the current course I have been working on since this summer.

I do have a small set of Schmincke Horadam (great brand here in Germany) and a little set of W&N Cotman watercolor (I love them! As great as Horadam). What are the differences to the W&N Professional colors?

Thank you so much for the joy you are bringing into this world.
Buddy

What a wonderful lesson. I look forward to learning more about watercolor when I attempt to do this project.

Thank you for creating it for all of us,

Greetings to your family,
