Awesome, as usual. I see you basically make up your paintings out of your imagination, which is much harder to do and still make them look real.

Thanks, Mike! I do use reference photo's, but I don't copy them. They're mostly relevant in the beginning of the painting process.

I love watching a morning mist rising. Whether its over the ocean, or watching the clouds lift off of the Canadian rockies in the morning, and then sail away to become the clouds over the city hours later. Its humbling in a sense. Its like watching the earth inhale and exhale, and makes you feel very small.

That's a beautiful analogy, watching the world inhale. My favorite spot in this respect is the top of a Vlieland dune, just under the lighthouse, overlooking the Wadden Sea and the North Sea. I once watched a thunderstorm develop in the west, almost hitting the island and disappearing in the east. A peak moment.

@PaintingSkies1
Жыл бұрын
Yes, it'll work on canvas, though not as well as on a smooth panel. It's harder to get the seamless gradients I'm after. Removing the paint with a cloth (to reveal lighter parts) is much harder on canvas. The paint gets stuck in the texture. But I would certainly try, if I was you!

I’ve been painting with my hands for decades now. Back in the sixties and seventies (when I was a student at the Academy) using your fingers was more or less standard practice. Since then health and safety regulations have become more strict and in my palette there’s only one color left (Transparent White) with an environmental hazard warning sign on the tube. I’m not saying there’s no risk at all, I’m not a scientist. Everyone should make their own choice. If you don’t feel comfortable using your hands, then don’t. I’ve been doing it for so long now that I’ll probably keep doing it til the day I lay down my brushes...

That stipple brush is... an enigma? But pretty sweet results with the discipline to use it well. Seems to me that the texture, if you've properly used it a few times and then your badger fan brush... it seems to remind me of the texture that I get when I put a surface onto masonite. Usually something from Gamblin in my case (oil painting ground). Been so very long since I've painted, I sooo want to start up again. Love clouds. Between yourself, Christopher Leith Evans, Jett Green (two former matte artists who are amazing painters... I think you'd like Chris' videos on clouds...) sigh...

I'm working on a large commission at the moment with a huge dark cloud. I'm slowly building up the contrast in the cloud with transparent layers. I use the stipple brush for each layer, resulting in a fine grained texture you'd never get with a regular brush. Thanks for the tip. Will check them out. My tip: if you have this urge to pick up painting again, just do it.

Just beautiful. I enjoy all your videos. When you paint on paper are they just studies for a bigger painting? Do you mount the paper painting on foam core and frame it behind glass?

Thanks, Jessica! Yes, they're quite often studies for larger works, but I more and more I enjoy doing them for their own sake. When I'm content I have them mounted on MDF board, so they can be framed like paintings on panel.

Well, you might be asking to much of yourself. I have been struggling myself for quite a few years, before I had the feeling I was on to something. If you keep putting in the hours (and avoid perfectionism) you will get better. If you want to find out more about my painting technique: www.paintingskies.com/video.

@PaintingSkies1

Yes, in this case I primed the paper with a blue acrylic. That's not always my approach. Sometimes I prime it with Gesso (a Royal Talens primer). The MDF panels I work on are primed by a small Dutch company, who (understandably) won't share their recipe.
