No artist could lay down a better watercolor wash then Grant. I continue to watch all his videos and am always so inspired. We are blessed to have those to view.

At some point in one of his recorded demonstrations, Mr. Fuller advised the artist to “wait until the effort of struggle is forgotten” before proceeding from one phase of working to the next. This strikes me as a profound insight into both art and life, and I thank him for that.

Retired at 62 I have returned to art and found Grant Fuller to be an extraordinary mentor. I was going to thank him for his instructional videos and was terribly saddened to learn of his death. My next work will be strongly influenced by him. Thank you Grant... you have passed the torch.

I, too, have just chanced upon Mr. Fuller's YouTube videos and am sorry to learn of his passing. He seems like a lovely, gentle person and a wonderful watercolorist. I'm grateful to have "discovered" him. I'm sending warm wishes to his family and friends.

I'd just chanced upon Mr Fuller's YouTube videos; subscribed to his channel as he had many great watercolour teachings for anyone keen on watercolour tutorials and I'm truly saddened by the fact that he's no longer here with us. Though only watching and learning via videos, I can tell that he is really a wonderful and patient teacher who generously shared lots of amazing watercolour tips and techniques through his countless videos on the channel. Thank you Sir, for your guidance on watercolour art.

As a watercolourist, I searched and found his YouTube instructions on how to create wet sand in watercolour...then went and Googled him and found this. I am 60 now, and will continue to seek out his teachings online. Sorry, and heart-felt condolences to the family.

I love to watch Mr. Fuller paint watercolors. When I started trying my hand at watercolors, I watched lots of his demonstrations. They are beautiful and he is such a good teacher - he even let me send him a drawing of a cat I wanted to paint and he made a few corrections.
While watching another group of his demonstrations on Utube I found a notice of his death. I am so very sorry. I am on the US East Coast and we discussed the differences in not only how the landscape looks but in how people paint it. I will miss his kind and calm instructions and am very glad that I have his book, Watercolor from A to Z. Charleston, SC 2/02/2019

I was just looking at another of Grant's wonderful painting demonstrations on YouTube before I commenced a similar watercolour of my own. I returned to his website to get further details, and was saddened to learn of his passing; until just now I had no idea that it had happened. Having lost my wife many years ago, I can appreciate the impact of Grant's loss on his own wife and family; four-legged family members included. At 77, maybe I'm too old to be classified as a student, but I will value Grant's patience, sensitivity and sheer artistic talent for the painting time that remains to me.

I recently found Mr. Fuller's videos online, and even after just an hour or so of watching they have brought light to me while in a dark place. His videos have inspired me to pick up a paintbrush after years of wishing I had the courage to do so. They are full of such calm, peaceful appreciation for nature and beauty, and I'm sure they and his memory will be cherished for years to come!

I have recently decided to try to learn watercolor painting and searched for videos that looked similar to the style I wanted to develop. I watched and became a huge fan of Mr. Fuller's tutorial videos. I am saddened to learn of his passing but am very grateful that his videos are available for those who want to learn lessons from a great artist. His teaching style is so relaxed and informative. I hope I can learn his techniques and create at least one beautiful painting in his memory. My condolences to Mrs. Fuller and his family.

I was looking as usual on his youtube channel to glean some more tips from this amazing watercolourist. Looking down at some of the comment I noticed one which read, "Rest in Peace Grant and thanks for your wonderful legacy". I was stunned. Thank you so much Grant, I've learned so much from your channel. Thanks for giving the time and effort to teach others. A true gentleman.

I'm so saddened that I have only just found out about his passing after a year. I came across his youtube channel and found his art so beautiful, and for a while wondered why I didn't see any more new videos after his new channel trailer. May his beautiful soul rest in peace.

I am so sorry to hear about the passing of this talented artist. I have begun painting again after suffering a brain injury. Instructions have been hard to follow for me. I came across Grant Fuller's YouTube instructions on watercolor painting and was so glad to have found an instructor that was easy to follow and very good at what he did. I got better and better again and get many compliments on my work now as I did before my accident. I wanted to find out more about this man and looked him up on the Internet. When I fond out he passed away last year I was/am very sad. My condolences go out to his family and friends. His work goes on teaching and I am grateful I found out about this wonderful man.

I am shocked and saddened by Grant's death. I studied with Grant at the Haliburton School of the Arts Summer Program and was inspired by his humour and kind tutelage. Having moved to BC in December, 2016, I was browsing to see what classes he might be giving here. We all have a part of him through his paintings, books and videos but I'm truly sorry for his family and friends.

I have watched every video that Grant did and took an online drawing course from him. His touch of paint and brush on paper was unequaled. I will have to watch for the sweep of his brush in the clouds.
My first watercolour with Grant.

My condolences to the family, especially Myrna. My very first art instructor. Attended my first watercolour workshop in Edmonton in 2003 and several ones thereafter. Thanks to his gentle demeanour, his patience and his teaching style, I learnt a lot and have been hooked to watercolour ever since. He will be sorely missed by the art community.
Attached is my painting in his first class.

I found Grant Fuller's watercolour videos only yesterday and subscribed to his youtubes. He leaves a lovely legacy for all up-and-coming watercolour painters. May his journey into the sunset be blessed with the beauty and light that he so beautifully captured in his art work.

I just got word of Grant's passing. When I moved to the west coast in 1987 I took some classes from Grant. Not only did I learn a lot about water color but Grant and I shared a similar past. We spent time comparing notes and coming to the realization that life is good. Real good. I am glad Grant fulfilled his artistic dreams and to this day I have yet to meet anyone comparable in terms of drawing skills. A good man and a mentor to many. He will surely be missed in the art community.
