Possible painting vacation workshop in Whistler this summer. Shooting for August 12, five days of painting in town, along the river, at the lake. Maybe a gondola ride and photos at the peak. Great food and lots of it. Hotel with kitchenette and all the dishes. Check back for more details as they become available.
Hi Grant
When is it you will be in Sherwood Park? I would love to join in.
I live only 45 minutes away from there. Also, I only have access to pay pal to make purchases online. How can I get your materials if I can’t get them online through pay pal? Thanks.
Hi Grant
Thanks for the e mail regarding the drawing seminar. I got all the way to the check out and realized I didn’t have the prerequisites – so I think the best thing is get your drawing dvd. The seminar requires an e book and having taken drawing 1. I have your Watercolor ABC and painting the sea– both great
I am contacting North Light about these requirements. I think the book and videos are important to the projects we will be assigning but I have adjusted the course slightly from the original now covering beginners. I do not think that taking the first course should affect this continuing series. I will notify all concerned when we officially make these modifications.
regards, Grant
thanks for the quick reply– I did call Northern Light this morning and the dvd’s should be available Feb. I printed out one of the Cotswold photos as a project for my Thur painting class at the senior center. Many thanks–Larry
Hi Grant Maureen here I would like to thank you for the help you gave my daughters to purchase the
“John Hawkins Glacier Painting” for me. It was a beautiful Birthday surprise. I am also thrilled that you will be doing a work shop in Edmonton (Sherwood Park) I am hoping to attend.
Great to hear you like the painting and I hope to see you in Edmonton. Best regards, Grant
Hi Grant
What are the chances of seeing the pumpkins done on u tube as were the two boats–just in case you’r bored?
Many thanks Larry
Well the pumpkins are already painted and no one was filming it at the time. However, I am occasionally adding videos to the collection. There might just be something in the near future resembling the treatment of the pumpkins showing up on Youtube.
thanks for the reply– larry
Hi Grant……
I noticed that your work is very detailed, amazing how much control you have in some of the finer details. Do you ever do abtracts work?
Regards
Louise
p.s. will see you at the Island Arts Expo in November
I have done several abstracts, mainly from imagination, but I find one of the most important steps in creating a painting to be seeing. I get pleasure from translating what I see into brush strokes. I am not interested in doing photo realism, I like the end result to be obviously paint.
Hi Grant……
Would you supply the brand name of the synthetic brushes you prefer?
Thanks
Louise
Hi Louise, most synthetic brushes are equal and I buy whatever looks good at the time . I have some Cotman brand, which are made by Winsor Newton as their student grade product because I like the shape. The one brand that I have traditionally favoured is “Gold Sable” by a company called Heinz Jordan. They are not made of gold and they are definitely not sable but they are good synthetics. I suggest trying a few different ones, none are very expensive except for the large flats and for those (one inch flat for example) I buy one called a “Chalice” which is synthetic with a small amount of actual sable hair which helps to increase the amount of wash it will hold. I hope this helps, regards, Grant
Dear Mr. Fuller,
I recently purchased your DVD “Painting the Sea in Watercolor”. It’s wonderful! I’ve watched it twice so far and have had several “A ha!” moments. Your clear explanations and easy going manner make learning a pleasure.
Thank you!

Hi Grant – Chuck Baker here. I guess it’s about time I signed up to your great website!
Thanks so much!
Ciao Chuck
Hi Chuck, good to hear from you! I hope you had fun at Haliburton and your visit with Dorothy.
I cannot access any of the video clips and cannot just copy and paste the url, it copies the whole paragraph
Hi Sue, all my other responses from the iPad users are saying the same thing. I assume you are using an iPad for this. I hope to find a solution and also hope it is not an internal issue with iPad.
No, I am trying to download and save to my documents on my computer.
Hi Sue, most of the responses I have had say the video clips open OK in Windows Media Player. You could try the YouTube links which will open on any platform. These links were added to the revised (current) version of my eBook.
Also the demo’s on, the video clips will not open, love your book tho. A to Z
Dear Grant,
I opened my email here in Australia for the Pond in the Meadow Lesson; it is just beautiful, thank you
Marcia Storey
Great – see you in Alaska
Have you ever considered creating an e-book or guest authoring on other sites? I have a blog based on the same theme if you’re interested.
Hi Muchacho, I have several ebooks on the eBookMall and I am working on another that has live video links so you can see the full motion demo of certain parts of the painting. I may need to work with North Light Books on it so I don’t create any conflict with existing publications.

Love the site!
Hi Grant
Just love your site – Awesome.
Cheers Marie
Thanks Marie, it was badly in need of updating and has a long way to go before it is fully loaded. What a learning curve to switch management systems. I like WordPress though.
Looking forward to new workshops and lessons.
