Where did you go? I see your web site is gone too.

Why can we never see your finished art piece?

hi

I have not made a videos in long time Hope made one so

Well, welcome back, been quite a while since I saw one of your videos.

welcome back ol boy.

glad see you

Helpful. Thanks…

Wow. What an improvement on your previous painting. Well done.

Well done. Half the challenge is actually painting outside and the other half is figuring out what to paint. My French easel always collapses on me, so I have got a completely different set up now.

Awesome video which is quite helpful for first timers wanting to plein air paint

You're using the pliers upside down. A how to do it wrong video.

like this one

Thx for sharing your setup, great ideas with the clips / bag / cup

i do what some do and rarely clean my brushes, using some for light colors and some dark, wipe clean w paper towel and tip in safflour oil with a few drops of CLOVE OIL...i've heard students taught covering the brush with saliva...

I've seen them where the legs extend like a tripod, open latch and slide out and lock, which is SO much easier than these NUTS & BOLTS!

hi we okay want see more your video

Beautiful work

Great video for me to see. Just planning a similar trip for this weekend. Drawn loads, never painted. It could be messy!! I’m just going to get stuck in and keep it simple. That self conscious feeling is what I feel most nervous about.

Nice little painting. I use a french easel indoors but being old and knackered I think it would be a bit heavy for me to carry now. I have bought a little pochade box which holds 12x10 inch panels and I can screw it onto a telescopic camera rest or sit down and use it on my lap. All I need now is the courage to actually get out and do it.

As far as I can tell, that little ridge on the top is so that if you have a longer length of canvas, you can get it into the inside edge and lever it against the strainer to get a perfectly sharp sharp edge and consistent tension.

hope see you more Ibeen sick for weeks

glad to see you

lovely compositions gentlemen, the horizon looks good to me. the colors are great🍻

I have 3 phone apps I like to use , there’s Notanizer, Red, and Grid. All great helps with value,and scale

When are we going to see you painting again ?

What?

Welcome back!

Yay! I thought you'd given up painting and turned to taxidermy or something. 😉

Been wondering about ya! Glad to see you back.

You must have a magic wand in that 'studio'. That tree painting by your friend needs to get the magic wand treatment too....lol Enjoyed watching your posting, 1st time here. 👍

your painting is great, coming along nicely !

wow, I love your composition, beautiful work, lovely artist ! well done !

good composition, very nice work, good day out too! we all have our own style! happy painting, we get better as we get older! which is a cool thing! see you soon !

Interesting, well done,.

Could we see a close-up of the painting at the end of each session?

Lol 😂

Is this seven sisters hills!! Amazing 😃🤝💐

good on you !

I AM TRY OIL PAINT HAVE FUN

Definitely upside down Robin - the metal edge on the pliers goes against the wooden bar and gives you the leverage. Hope you have worked this out since your video 😀

If it's any consolation - my canvas pliers don't have a spring so I have to keep opening them up with my fingers that often get pinched soon after! 😂

hi

Great painting, well done and have a merry painting Xmas.

I quite like this longer form vid as a way to mix things up a bit. The final piece turned out nice. I tried watching the original, but at the time I was in bed sick with covid so I couldn't stay awake for it. I haven't been able to paint in a while now and am eager to get back to it. I am struggling to find a subject though. I am considering going back to your vid with the stone bridge and pulling a screenshot to use as a reference. I remember when I first watched that vid, there was a shot when you first got to the area that really caught my attention.
