This is the second part of a series of videos on painting sky from artist and lecturer Scott Naismith.
This episode begins to talk about wet in wet oil painting, translucence in skies and keeping edges soft at the outset of a painting.
I do not sell DVDs but provide free video tutorials here on youtube however I'm grateful to anyone who would like to make a donation if they feel the tuition is worthy of it. You can do this at the following link:

Many thanks to Alex Duncan who provided the painting analysed in this video. He sent me it about 6 months ago and is no doubt a master by now if his first 6 months of painting are anything to go by!

I just love your accent.. I speak with a heavy southern tongue and many people laugh at how i speak but you'll get my meaning easily. just wanted to say you paint with a unique style just as I speak with a unique style. hope that makes sense.

this is amaizing and a good study to encourage artists and learners also

Thank you so much for this series, wish you were my teacher. Please don't stop sharing these types of videos. Glad that I've found your channel

[@EmanuelSpader]

Thank you so much for sharing these videos!

It's probably the camera settings, but, it looks like you need more light in your set-up. Have tried daylight bulbs? Very interesting videos.

Great video But I never understand how so many professionals don’t have a tube crimper You’d think crimping the last bits out of every tube would be a priority?

[@lisengel2498]

Very inspiring talk - but could you write the medium you use ? Was it safflower oil and bee wax?

[@garylowe7676]

Thanks for these videos, they're really inspiring me to create. But just for fun, you should watch your vid with the captions on. Because of your accent, it spits out the strangest translations, as in one bit literally goes "okay to be done a little goat euphoria is crucial hey". Lol, though to be fair I suppose goat euphoria could be crucial. Especially if you're a goat I'd assume.

Brill Gary, yep I love 'em

Isn't Purple Yellow's complementary? If you look at the color wheel for primary colors it is always the color that is mixed by the other two primary colors.

[@ScottNaismithArtist]

You may want to watch my video 'the truth about the colour wheel'. Red is not green's compliment either

[@stylishstylish5211]

Hmmm Worth looking into! Thanks

My favorite thing about painting, if you don't like something about your painting, just paint over that area and start over

[@rubybeau4263]

Hey I wondered if you could tell me what the oil is you use in your base medium? (Sounds like sapphire/saffron oil but I'm not sure)

[@cheesecrumpets]

The medium is safflower oil, mixed with turpentine and abit of beeswax.

Thank u.

I can't find Cyan oil paint anywhere???

[@ScottNaismithArtist]

Phthalocyanine blue is often called pthalo blue. It’s pretty much cyan. Cerulean blue is also close for opaque.
