Thanks for the "tour" of your trailer etcetera. Obviously a labour of love, with the result being able to travel far and wide with everything you need! Wonderful painting.... The camera off close up at the end is always well worth waiting for. I can't get over the beauty of the gum trees! This video made my morning, sitting here with my cuppa. Actually, this was a two cuppa video lol! Thanks, Richard.

Hi Richard, that is serious equipment you have for moving around the outback, but you need it. It's brilliant well done. I am enjoying the abstactiveness (is that a word??) that comes from the knives and I am changing my painting techniques to incorporate the knife abstract technique. I think it is great and brings a really cool touch to the paintings. Your a great teacher and you give out really good information. thanks. I'll be saving to get one of your paintings one day.. Bill

[@richardmusgrave-evans9886]

G'day Bill, great to here that you are learning from my videos! The palette knife is a great tool for painting in oils and I'm happy you are giving it a go!!! I'm glad that you feel like you want to purchase one of my pictures down the track! Cheers and happy painting :-)

Jimmy Burdan here, I just found your amazing videos. I am just amazed at your work. I have also painted with acrylic paint because I can't afford oil. But even then I love to paint the same size that you do. I really enjoy watching you. I will some day follow your lead with oil and just the knife and paint one amazing picture like you. Thank you for show us all how you do your amazing work. God Bless

[@ServeWithIntegrity]

Nice setup. You could use two mirrors so you don't have to turn your head when you paint. As in a small optometrist office two good quality mirrors with no significant distortion could work to see things and colors right next to each other. Legend goes Vermeer used this technique to match colors. Sorolla also used similar techniques. Nice work.

[@richardmusgrave-evans9886]

That's a great idea, thanks for the info!

[@stefaniarisciotti7689]

Wonderful stuff brother! I prefer to work plein air also. I've seen so many artists (quite good ones too) who do a plein air vid, but they use little 11x14 canvases! I say, use a bigger canvas and use bigger brushes!!! Bravo!
