I enjoyed this video so much James. So inspiring and fun to see you playing and exploring, and to such great effect. I have to overcome my sense of preciousness about my sketchbooks. I tend to feel that as it’s recorded in a book which I’ll likely keep, it has to be good. Hence sketchbooks that are almost empty. My experiments go on loose sheets of paper, which are harder to store and even harder to track down if I want to use them as a reference. Hopefully lesson learned. 🤞

You sound like you've never experienced true ASMR. It is a wonderful feeling of extreme relaxation and a feeling of goosebumps. The peacefulness of ASMR cannot be told from one to another. A person must experience it to truly understand. It is a feeling mostly known when having sex, but it can be triggered through audio simulation. Sounds such as scratches, writing or other skillful utensils being used can trigger it. Also how the person is using something can also trigger it.

Being relaxed enough to experiment freely on top of a "succesful" painting is a great lesson in healthy artistic attitude, and something that will surely accelerate learning! As an optical nerd, I wouldn't have considered putting the lens flare pattern in any other orientation than crossing image center where it would be in an uncropped photograph, but as a loose compositional element I realize it can do its job anywhere - and only people with my handicap would think twice about it. Thank you for breaking rules!

That was cool on many levels. You can feel the texture interaction of the media and can estimate the amount of relative pressure being applied to the surfaces. The difference between soft and hard are starkly evident. My headphone exposure binaural audio was from the KZitem channel; "Smarter Everyday". You literally feel those spaces with unseen dimension in relation to proximity. The first time you experienced binaural audio, it is quiet revealing just how the environment is perceived, recorded and processed by your brain.

You are my kind of artist James..willing to take risks to add something extra to a successful painting. Great lesson in experimentation of technique and mixed medium.

Roof soffit.

Its especially cool because i've heard so many people say "don't paint from photos, your painting will just look like a photo." which may have some merit especially if you're trying to look realistic and learn from nature.. But it's such a creative and ingenious idea to intentionally make a painting look like a photo. And why not? As you said, these are visual artifacts we simply accept. After all on instagram, we can even add the lens flairs in post to give it more of a "feel" why not do it in a painting? So so cool to watch the entire process. Thanks for sharing this

My question for today is, would you consider doing a video comparing/contrasting various types of media for underpainting, in the way you do. Casein v. Gesso v. Acrylic, and maybe throw on some discussion about types of paper used for watercolor. I know everyone loves cold press, but why? Thanks so much James!

You always make me want to grab all my paints and sketch books and just do some work like this. I’m always too busy with commissions or life. I also wants more gouache and maybe so e casein paint. I have some acrylic gouache that may be similar? Casein is one of the only mediums I haven’t used. I use nearly every other painting and drawing medium.
