[@richardbennett5744]

Just seen this, Good to limit your colours and time, produced a lovely harmony. Thanks.

I enjoyed watching you paint your quick 20 minute study, and it turned out so well. You achieved a very nice composition and I love your colors. Thank you for sharing your adventure.

Well done, you achieved a great study for 20 minutes. It's amazing what you can do when you're against the clock. Working in those harsh conditions too....

[@zheliskoart]

Thank you very much, Nick. No brushstroke was waisted, that’s for sure :)

[@nickfeganart5776]

@@zheliskoart Yes, I see that. I paint much better outdoors. You need full attention and adrenaline

That was a great demo! 😊. Thank you! I love painting plein air in Winter, though my tolerance for cold is dropping as I age. Nowadays I have knit socks on my hands with the little heating pads in them. I push the brush handle through the weave of the sock, (if coarse woven), or through a hole, if tighter woven. That way I have my fingers directly on the brush and retain full dexterity. Also, when I have to use my bare hands, socks come on and off much quicker and easier than mittens or gloves .

Thank you very much:) What a great idea! Might try it myself :)

Great demo, Oksana! I enjoy your teaching and encouragement, and am inspired to try plein air too… but not with an audience, lol.

[@zheliskoart]

Thank you very much, Vera. I really encourage you to try it. It might be a little challenging at first but really rewarding and meditative . Keep creating! You are doing great!

[@JohnValenteart]

Nice study, Oksana-the light is beautiful. You must have been freezing!

[@zheliskoart]

Thank you, John. It was a bit chilly by the the end :)

[@nagridgecreative]

I loved watching this. You're so inspiring and you make it look so easy. I've been a fan of your work on FB and am thrilled to see you have a KZbin channel. Looking forward to more demos to watch and learn from. I see from your bio, you are also of Ukrainian descent. No wonder you paint so well! :D

[@zheliskoart]

Thank you so much! This was definitely not an easy one;) between painting out in a cold, trying to film and deal with people :) lol. But I love a good challenge. Yes, I am from Ukraine :) Thank you for your kind feedback :)

[@CMTiger62]

Great video!! How cold was it anyway?

[@zheliskoart]

Thank you very much. Not too cold. Maybe -5. The sun was actually warm, but infinite I was in the shade

[@bobgoodnoe4583]

Well done, ma’am.

[@maneeshgoswami-edm]

So realistic ! Photo like

[@mrt4044]

beautiful work! is your easel selfmade? i m looking for small travel gear but hard to find.

[@zheliskoart]

Thank you very much. I have many different set ups when I paint outdoors, depending how big I want to paint or how far to hike. This one is a u.Go box 6”x8” really compact and light. It is perfect for small panels and when you want to travel light

[@sandracarroll6233]

Nice study.

[@johnhowton6339]

so sweet and helpful thank you

[@zheliskoart]

I am glad that you have enjoyed it :)
