Speed Painting

Wow! I just discovered this in Yahoo. Never heard of speed painting before. Check it out.

Watch to the very end !

I watched another one just this morning. The guy did Ray Charles. It was amazing.

Amazing. He must good in perhaps regular watercolour painting or at least, drawing. To execute that fast and wonderful, he would have to put his mind/being in another zone/trance. I'm not kiddin'....

I TRIED taking Chinese watercolour painting -- a style, if those who have never seen it done live, where some paintings are produced within 1 hr. or so. I never finished the course because I knew I didn't have that natural brush stroke/ hand twist touch..where it takes years of practice to do 1 stroke that with perfect shading of a leaf, flower petals, birdbreast, etc.

Used to think that type of painting looked wimpy, "weak". But now, I know better. At least, one can go to gallery or be given a such gift, and truly appreciate the level of skill and practice for the artwork.

But Hannelore, I am certain you must have experienced a rare interlude where for a few min. your brush painting hand just flew...and moved on its own.

How cool is that! I'd love to be able to paint like that but I never got passed 'paint by numbers'

Even my son was impressed(He does martial arts)so many others will see Bruce Lee via him
Thank you.
