Love those subtle colors in the water and the bold tree and foreground design. Well done, as usual.

[@chamberlainpaintings]

Thanks Maura!

[@jerica611]

I love seeing/hearing the process! Especially w the familiar scenery I’ve walked past

[@mrfoo12emily]

I'll be totally honest with this one, I was not sure about it at first but I really like how you got that tree to be so colorful. I enjoyed watching you carve out the sky and add different colors to the branches, it really works! I love it!

[@chamberlainpaintings]

Thanks!

[@livtaylor991]

Someone please get him some new panels!! He can't keep painting over these old beautiful ones!! 😂

I would paint gray mud if I step in front of an easel with that weather...well done Mike it looks beautiful.

Thanks Martin!

Really enjoy composition and limited palette - inspiring. Thank you Susan in NM

Like it👍really reflects the mood and the colours of an overcast Day.

[@bentorres2727]

i love you idea of limited palette.

[@ianbrowne8871]

I have just started to reuse old panels and canvases - but gave them a light sand and a couple of of coats of gesso primer - the previous work was lumpy! So i followed your example and many old masters did the same!

[@chamberlainpaintings]

Did you use acrylic gesso over an oil painting? I paint directly over the old painting because I don't want to deal with oil priming.

[@ianbrowne8871]

I used an acrylic gesso primer and gave it a couple of coats using an old credit card rather than a brush. The second layer went on an hour later. i did a whole batch so I have a stock of board ready to use for studies - just hope they do not turn into masterpieces!! @@chamberlainpaintings

[@phisquared6187]

Big perspective angle s to deal with the vertical top down foreground view. it turned out nicely!

[@barbarabrown7960]

Watching you paint over an old painting trains the brain to see the new possibility. Maybe I really don't have to cover up the old painting after all. As for squinting, I just take my glasses off these days.

[@chamberlainpaintings]

Give it a try! It's difficult at first but it will open up new paths of perception!

[@lmj8880]

Stunning this video motivated me to pick up oil again ❤️

[@Ivanhoe999]

Sign the painting. It is sellable. Get a group together and you can have a show…your imagination is demonstrating good skills…your style is representational Impressionism. Don’t stop! Blessings

[@sophiefernelius2406]

I love this one, Michael! Beautiful colors in the water and very nice composition!

[@chamberlainpaintings]

Thanks!

[@karendarton7251]

I loved this painting and location. The grey day color is perfect for that area. Thank you for sharing with us.

[@jenfleming9412]

Wonderful demo and you explained so much. I love thé shape you achieved of the windswept tree with simple clear brush strokes. Thanks

[@tbone805]

Looks great! Love all the tuning you do towards the end to make it sing.

[@chamberlainpaintings]

Thanks!

[@laurar430]

So beautiful! It reminds me of Fitzgerald Marine. I enjoy your videos!

[@chamberlainpaintings]

It’s very close to Fitzgerald!

[@gregwing6409]

Sweet little painting with a strong, pleasant composition. Nicely done... Cheers -Greg

[@chamberlainpaintings]

Thanks Greg!

( love the sound of the wind , in background to your verbal instruction, it is as being there ) 👂🤔😌🙂. 6:23 - 6:35 that sound subsequent of the waves

Good one Michael. Loose and spontaneous. Great location!

Cloudy days are my favorite and you captured the feeling of one perfectly!

Thanks!

Beautiful painting , thank you Michael. ( as seen at 13:39 ). 🙂

[@patriciadelsordo5556]

I would be so thrown off balance trying to paint that way. Amazing how you create a strong, harmonious composition, over the old painting.Beautiful painting, I love the play of warm/cool color. It “feels” like a grey misty day. Bravo!

[@garyleadmon5489]

Thank you Michael for another wonderful painting. Using a small palette with intention, terrific!

Nice painting, Mike! Though your palette was limited, the little bit of color you used really popped.

[@chamberlainpaintings]

Thanks Dennis!

[@carlstoveland]

Nice! Your simplification is masterful.

[@chamberlainpaintings]

Thanks Carl!

[@martimajor4766]

So good. Love your work!!! ❤

[@chellie2023]

I really like this one. The more limited pallette really helps keep the color more harmonious. Beautiful outcome. Btw- what is going on with that painting on the easel behind you in your studio?

[@nickrodis6862]

Nice composition thank you very much for sharing your art.

[@harryjamessmithmusic7762]

Amazing spot, sir! The painting turned out great! It must be pretty tricky to paint over an old painting. Fantastic job! Greetings from the EU!

[@chamberlainpaintings]

Thanks Olda!

@@chamberlainpaintings Cheers! Have a wonderful day! Heatwave is already here!

[@juliad368]

This is fascinating to watch thank you

[@nancysmitherman9970]

Really like the way this one turned out! Is the texture of the old paintung come through the new one? I had trouble with an acrylic painting that I had done when I painted water over mountains.

[@chamberlainpaintings]

I lightly sanded the panel so there isn't much texture from the previous painting.

[@Susiachi]

Hi Michael! Do you ever use an orbital sander over an old painting on panel, or is that overkill? Lovely outcome. And it is refreshing to see that cool fog and someone needing a jacket this time of year. Thanks for sharing!

[@chamberlainpaintings]

I just use a sanding sponge for a light sanding 😊👍

[@miriamtong8808]

Hi Michael, beautiful composition! Love the simple shapes and light/dark pattern. It’s reminding me to keep squinting 😆 Thanks for the video

[@chamberlainpaintings]

Thanis Miriam!

[@markparkey1218]

11:49 ( the angelic image , some will see, center palette, standing, hair and robes as one, gazing upwards, accompanied by many more , to image left, your natural creativity abundant in the mix ) , as the brush tip is raised, that moment , ,

[@DDartlover8888]

I fuss at the end and lose some of the shapes I liked. Will try squinting more, thanks for another great video

[@markparkey1218]

‘’ I just think that’s a beautiful green “‘ 9:56 ( agree ) as colors react with other colors ( you mention ) ,

[@dewindoethdwl2798]

Wholly agree that composition and design are fundamental. My painting buddy has really poor eyesight so he has to simplify, he cannot hope to do detail. He jokes about being gifted with eyes that squint naturally and having never seen the detail, he doesn’t feel inhibited leaving it out. His perception of colour is very good but it’s his sense of design that is on point. I’ve learned a lot from him about decluttering both my paintings and paint box.

[@georgefrench1907]

Good result.👍

[@petersenesac8102]

Great work. I like the loser look and the color mixing. Interesting added challenge of working over a vertical old painting while holding a camera in one hand. (Do you paint looking at the screen?). Challenging. I'm curious how wide your 8 and 6 are in mm or inches? Every brand is different. Thanks!

[@mwhsmith]

Beautiful! My favorite in a long time, exquisite work, Michael

[@chamberlainpaintings]

Thanks!

[@wisconsinGreg]

I like it! ❤

[@SuzWhat]

White water provides angles and pattern in the waves The scenery is the raw material for the design he craves A reused panel may throw him off balance No worries; problem solving just one of his talents Warms up green with alizarin crimson Squints to keep things loose; battle’s been won Temperament fits composition simple and strong Check out Pa-tre-on; you can’t go wrong 🌊 I love this location. The painting is beautiful. The colors, the composition and the brushstrokes are all stellar. Thanks for sharing! Peace and love..Suz What ☮️💛

Thanks Suz! I love this location as well. One of my favorites!
