You are really good Richard . No matter what you paint with that pallet knife. I really enjoy your videos. You are really good. That painting, smoke in the distance, plus all the little details-beautiful.. You always do a VERY good narrative at the end which is very informative…. I’ve learned a lot…… Thanks

[@richardmusgrave-evans9886]

Hey really appreciate the feedback, many thanks 🤩🎨👍

[@robertgardiner3925]

Love your work Richard especially the way you start in the opposite foreground first and then work back to the sky! I have also used beeswax in the past and found that beeswax will shrink as it dries so you may end up with way more 'unwanted' curling and texture in painting if the ratio to paint is tipped more on the wax side. Still great piece and engaging commentary.

[@richardmusgrave-evans9886]

Cheers Robert! Thanks mate!!!

Hi Richard. Great sense of depth to this painting. With the lighter colour values in the forground. Realistic with your abstract feel to it. Wonderful.Jim from England. 😊

G'day Richard, crikey this rural scene is probably my favourite of all your rural studies. You have created quite the 'buzz' with that bees wax too, puts a sting into the scene. Close up, the paint looks buttery, great smooth texture in the foreground field. Best of all though, what incredible depth the scene has, some great learning offered here for those that want to learn. Once again the Master Illusionist has created a masterclass of taking a board, adding some paint and delighting the eye. Really enjoyed this one mate, cheers Rich

Ричард, приветствую! Спасибо за колористику Австралийской зимы, такой же тёплой, как наше Прибалтийское лето 😊 Идиллическое спокойствие даже в цвете твоего сегодняшнего костюма. Глядя на пейзаж, представляется обеденный натюрморт с сыром и авокадо, попивая чай из трав, взгляд умиротворяется на созерцании коровок, зелёных лугов и всех живописных воспоминаний, проведённых с тобой онлайн )) Пейзаж шикарен и я бы похулиганила, добавив ему игривости, положив на первый план сыр и букетик чайных трав.. 😋 🍀 😊

죽고 싶었는데 이제는 잘 살고 싶어요. 행복하고 자유로워지고 싶어요. 요즘 유화를 배우러 다니고 있어요. 아직 초보자에요. 그림은 저를 행복하게 해주고 안정감을 줘요. 그림을 잘 그리면 유튜브에 올리고 싶어요. 자랑하고 싶어요. 유튜브 영상으로 공부하고 복습하고 있어요. 잘 배우고 싶고 잘 그리고 싶어요. 당신의 그림은 매우 신비롭고 아름다워요. 건강하세요.👍👍👍🍀🍀🍀 I wanted to die, but now I want to live well. I want to be happy and free. I go around to learn oil painting these days. I'm still a beginner. Painting makes me happy and gives me a sense of security. If I draw well, I want to upload it on KZbin. I want to brag about it. I am studying and reviewing it with KZbin videos. I want to learn well and draw well. Your paintings are very mysterious and beautiful. Stay healthy.

Nice!!! It's amazing how all these little marks up close just looks like little marks until you zoom out and oh my goodness- It's a masterpiece! You are amazing. Love the vest and hat too. Very debonair. That white little building/house with the yellow wildflowers in front of it is the focal point for me. I know you said the yellow was the sun reflecting but I see wildflowers and I love it! That's what makes Art so wonderful, it is interpreted differently by different eyes. Gorgeous work.

👋Greetings, Richard, and thank you for another gorgeous landscape painting. I love the buildings in the foreground and the smaller ones scattered throughout the area. Wonderful colors, the yellows really lead the eye into the depths of this work of art without disturbing the eye, that is, they draw the eye in but don't hold it in place. The background looks beautiful too. I could wander through this painting for hours. You have an excellent eye for nice motifs, Richard. I wish you a wonderful weekend❤

Your paint looks drier oh I see you premixed the wax into your paint. Love the painting and the overall size. I was wondering how the gallery/studio is doing for selling your artwork.

СПАСИБО ЗА ВИДЕО. ДЛЯ ВАС ОТРЫВОК ИЗ СТИХОТВОРЕНИЯ: Пришел король, безжалостный к врагам, И гнал людей он, как стадо к далеким, Берегам, и там они лежали живые, На мертвом в крови, песке у моря, Накатами волн море, их смывало в глубину, И даже нет могил, о тех неизвестных, Король ехал у моря, на своем коне, А рядом реяли чайки, путь выбирая, Волны вздымались с пеной, с ними наравне, Король глядел угрюмо, где его вассалы?
