Julia Barminova explains very well her technique , very good course, thank you
I really like what you do, draw, paint and so on and your enthusiasm Thank you and see you soon @triliamn
Excellent course very well explained, my only regret is that subtitles in English àre not fully available for lesson 2 ànd I could not find a reference photo, other than that Julia is an excellent teacher and I learned a lot !
I really like the course and also teacher Julia! She is a real sea artist and traveler !
Julia Barminova is the best teacher and I love her style very much. Hope there will be much more courses from her, for example painting lanterns or buildings :-)
I really loved it! Soooo many details, soo beautiful and useful! The only part where I wish the process was not cut is when Julia paints the waves, as a fundamental step and I have the feeling in some parts there were tiny little details missing of how she did it. But overall I have loved it and I am looking forward to trying it over and over again!
I am absolutely in love with Julia's way of painting,, excellent lesson incredibly informative ad extremely enjoyable and very easy to follow. Hope to become as good as she is with my boats and water! There are many courses out there and I have followed many, but noone has been so helpful and useful both for technique and instructions provided.
Amazing my second course by Julia and I've learned so much. She is so talented it is really generous that she is sharing her skills and how she sees water, thank you!
I learned so many things watching this course. I really appreciated your explanation of choosing the techniques you use to achieve believable water. That was extremely helpful. I also enjoyed hearing how you decide to simplify the photo as a watercolor focused on the water! Please do more. And your English is great! You don’t need to apologize!
Very beautiful and helpful course, love it. Thank you Julia!
