Brilliant teacher she's so graciously explaining every method to her own devices.👌💕

This is the first time I am watching her! She's an incredible teacher!

Thanks for posting. I love Helen Van Wyk (RIP). She did more than paint on TV, she actually knew how to teach. I watch the re-runs on my local PBS station and have several of her books.

Helen not only taught how to do something, she also taught you why. She was the complete teacher unlike most of the artists I've seen on television.

She was the BEST.  I know she made at least 10 (probably a lot more) series of 13 shows per series, yet my PBS stations only run those of other artists. I did get to see quite a few of her shows in the 90's but they never run them here anymore. Such a huge amount of knowledge wasting away on the shelves somewhere. I'm glad to see at least a few of them here on You Tube. For anyone interested, she did write several books & they're exactly the quality you would expect from her. I wonder if she had any idea how much & how many she would affect in the world of oil painting. She is truly missed.

Oh!!  I do love this one!!  Isn't Helen amazing!!!

Please put on all her videos. I bought all of them years ago. She has many more than are uploaded.

❤😊🙏

can anyone pls identify the primary brush she's using?  is it a 'bright'?

PBS has done a great disservice in so limiting the airing of these in favor of the happy tree big brush palette knife guy who, while kind and got general folks to give painting a try, did nothing (or very little) to educate people about the fundamentals and craft of old school traditional oil painting.  Sending love to you , Helen, in your spirit world hanging out with Rembrandt!

White andblack is NOT colour ...!
