I loved this demo, and all in 20 min. I was skeptical of the shades of purple, but they were perfect. Amazing and brilliant work.

[@chamberlainpaintings]

Thanks!

[@OSUex]

I love this. I wish you would do a similar one but use a full 30 minutes to get a little more detail.

[@matthewgyulay2961]

Michael, there's something really appealing about pieces like this. You know, the kind that you see across the room at a gallery and it's easy to see what it is, but it's just begging for you to look at it closer, and then it blows you away with its simplicity. That's skill. As you're creating it, it emerges much like a sculpture would, (I think you mentioned that once in one of your videos way back). Hmmm, an 8" x 8" with a #8. Coincidence? Yup, that's what a coincidence is.

[@chamberlainpaintings]

Thanks Matthew! When we simplify and suggest the viewer fills in the details better than we ever could!

[@arselamallick3248]

This is so simple & beautiful !! Really want to try this

[@teresasternarts]

Great demo! Amazing how little blobs actually turn into cars - bravo! Love the yellow-purple contrast that emerges too. Thanks for sharing your process!

[@circusoftheseed]

Just amazing. I love how quickly those blobs turned into cars with just a few strokes. I need to start giving myself a time limit to really loosen up

[@chrisgraham887]

I really liked this one!! I do this occasionally with my pastel paintings. It's a great exercise in filtering out the non-essentials and focusing on the important shapes, colors and values. Love your videos! Thanks for sharing

[@anniekhan8474]

The way he moves his brushes is very professional. He is my mentor and inspiration. I started painting by watching bob ross and him.

[@glendapace8047]

I’m impressed! Good job.

[@dkatz7430]

Nice demo. Learned a lot from this❤

[@user-zi8qi9ip2g]

Wow! Well done…in 20 minutes! That was so much fun to watch you truly simplify…and it worked! I was holding my breath for you. Thanks for sharing.😊

[@hadistfadillah8123]

you should make video painting in nature alone with calm music, it would enjoyy to watchh

[@arieljiang8198]

Thanks for posting this. I found breaking down complex cityscape so hard.

[@michaelday1900]

Wow....awesome self challenge!! In the last few seconds the red really defined the cars in the foreground. You're videos have really taught me a lot, and given me a few laughs as well.

[@chamberlainpaintings]

Thanks Michael! Often a few details at the end can really bring a painting together. So glad you’re enjoying my videos.

[@lynnobrien925]

i like committng to the large brush as I am notorious for slipping into detail too early! thankyou!!

[@bcarithers22]

Yeah! Michael you did it!!! Routing for you every minute! Just like one minute gesture drawings in school!

[@chamberlainpaintings]

Thanks Barbara!

This was awesome. I really like the end product. I love abstract work like that. Great!

[@chamberlainpaintings]

[@40bdg]

Super helpful! I find it so hard to simplify and "get rid of the noise", so to speak. Learning what to focus on and what to eliminate is definitely a learned skill. Thanks 👍

[@wwanderful]

After watching this video, I now feel I can try a city scape. BTW-you are funny.

[@chamberlainpaintings]

Oh good! Thanks 🤓

[@sundelscorestore]

Super duper helpful!! Thank you

[@lorrainem887]

This was really fun to watch Mike. "Will he make it, won't he make it ?" Lol. I love this approach and I'm going to give it a try this afternoon. Simplifying is key, and you have a great talent for eliminating the unnecessary, and allowing the viewer to fill in the detail. A great exercise. Thanks Mike.

[@chamberlainpaintings]

Thanks Lorraine! I didn't know if I would make it either! 😂

[@teresasternarts]

Suspenseful painting, maybe it's the new hashtag... :)

[@funnybunny4774]

This was so therapeutic! Thank you 😊

[@viktoriyarts]

better than the photo, incredible!

[@chamberlainpaintings]

Thanks! 😊

[@luiscalvillo3725]

Nicely done. I was hoping you’d find your little brush and put hints of windows in the far building to lead the eye deep into the distance. Great job!

[@chamberlainpaintings]

Thanks Luis!

[@alvinray9080]

Happy to see you do this one. The detail on the sides of the building kills me (when I try) but seeing you do it make me think of another approach. Thanks again Michael. This is a good one!

[@chamberlainpaintings]

Thanks Alvin!

[@wschenke9999]

Fantastic amazing 20 minutes, thanks.

[@BarbrajoanOriginals]

Staying with those large shapes for as long as you can really helps this painting. You’ve done it again. Thanks so much for all you share. Have a great New Year 🍷 Tallahassee

Nice quick work, it would have taken me 20 minutes for the composition. Come out to northwest Indiana, bring a tube of titanium white, it snowing like crazy.

I really like videos of you showing your painting progress, I always learn a lot from these! Hope you have a wonderful holiday season

[@chamberlainpaintings]

Thanks Leah! I hope you have a wonderful holiday season as well!

[@martingimenez339]

Bravo Mike, for what is worth these kind of videos help me a lot because I always overdo, and watching you simplifying that complicated photograph into that cool fast painting is very valuable for me. It's not like I'll go in that direction but it's extremely useful to know how to work out simple shapes.

[@chamberlainpaintings]

Thanks Martin! Glad you found this one helpful. I’ll try to do more like it in the future 😊👍

[@tiffany7188]

Hi Michael, I just wanted to say that you're an huge inspiration and I'm always excited to watch your vlogs. It would be really cool if you could film some food related stuff or books you recommend :) Greetings from Switzerland! Tiffany

Thanks! Just keep painting!

[@chelseafrattura7742]

Hey Michael! I'm currently working on a large commission piece of a building. Lots of geometric shape, and I'm used to working more organically with nature scenes. Would you say its imperative to use a ruler to ensure straight lines? Do you think I could apply this same technique you use on a larger scale? My style is a bit more refined than the way you paint, but I'm wondering what your thoughts are. Maybe too ambiguous of a question, but I suppose what I'm really wondering is if you apply this same blocking technique to your larger scale pieces?

[@dallas4644]

Another Awesome instructional video Michael. You really are generous to do these! You empower the viewer/artist to say "yes, I can do this!" by breaking it down for us. I hope your fan base of viewers will show appreciation by becoming PATREON supporters! The cost is a fraction of online classes and incredible value! Thanks
