Painting epic waves :Freeman White Full Tutorial

[@hamcheeselettucemayosandwich]

Fantastic stuff Freeman. The genuine talent you have in articulating your process is second to none. This is a no small thing and I’m sure everyone here can’t wait to see what’s next.

[@freemanwhiteartist6927]

Thank you so much for these positive words AG !! I am excited to say that my latest full tutorial is now up on KZbin free to view !! I hope you enjoy it

[@ji_k]

Fabulous work and words of wisdom; it was very useful. Thanks.👍👏👏👏

[@freemanwhiteartist6927]

I’m pleased you enjoyed it … my audio mixing wasn’t great on this vid so thanks for being forgiving… I’m working to improve my editing skills

[@carrollwilson5169]

I loved the new video Freeman. I screamed at about 20 minutes in! In hindsight you improved the painting tremendously. I cannot tell you how much the “learning process” was well demonstrated. The work and thought you put into the painting as well as the video is easily seen. Really well done, and thank you. I’ll be watching it again.

[@freemanwhiteartist6927]

carroll wilson yey I’m glad it came across well ! I almost canned the whole tutorial on day three but then I thought , this could actually make for some interesting content so on I went ! Thanks so much for watching and for your thoughtful comments!!

[@jess65963]

Marvelous lesson! Paint what you love and use what you've got.😊

[@artbyfaith]

I do the same thing, start over... Your artwork is absolutely fantastic!

[@freemanwhiteartist6927]

Glad to hear you could relate to this !! Thank you for watching

[@johncapilares]

Este vídeo é o melhor material que já assisti sobre pintura aqui no KZbin, parabéns e obrigado 🙏

[@jcagra2012]

Excellent tutorial. I like to paint the sea mostly even though I live in the middle of the UK countryside. The thing I like about this particular tutorial is the honesty about changing things you don't feel are working. I have that crisis constantly, also using reference photos up to a point then going your own way . I like how you say its a series of problems to be solved and many ways to solve them .Thanks for an excellent tutorial. I'm going to show it to a friend today so she can see a little of what I go through. The struggle as you so rightly put it. I struggle but I am compelled to do it. Again , many thanks

Good artist are usually their biggest critiques so thanks for sharing three wonderful demos.

[@freemanwhiteartist6927]

It’s important to be self critical as long as it’s also part of the process and you keep striving for better results!!

[@kathleencruise145]

Beautiful painting and your voice and the music was very smothing..I've been trying to paint seascapes for years so finding you and your video's was a very exciting day for me...thank you soo much.and love from Italy.

[@freemanwhiteartist6927]

You are so kind to give me positive feedback like this ! I wish I were in Italy painting right now it is such a beautiful and inspiring country !! F

[@starforged]

Another fantastic video of a great painting. The end result was very nice but along the way you had several good paintings. Each time getting better. Thank you.

[@freemanwhiteartist6927]

It’s always a journey … hopefully we end up in the right place !! Thanks for the feedback

[@elanamarino2624]

Beautiful seascape....best lesson out there... your color palette is wonderful...and ability to mix colors along with color scheme...is just beautifully done and makes your works stand out....beautiful signature brushstrokes as well... Thank you for posting this....

[@freemanwhiteartist6927]

Wow thank you so much for your positive feedback!! This makes it all worthwhile for me !!

Beautiful work. I really enjoyed seeing the process. Thanks for sharing.

[@freemanwhiteartist6927]

Thanks so much ! I’m so glad you enjoyed the video !!

[@OllieKlepiakArtist]

Great brushwork choices and how to utilise them. Love the limited palette choices as well! Less colors, less headaches!

[@freemanwhiteartist6927]

Ollie Klepiak I’m glad you enjoyed the video !! So many things to consider when painting the ocean ! I like to keep my pallet fairly neutral

[@shaneshawwilliams4512]

Very good Freeman ...really interesting not as a painter but as the child of two parents who painted ...kind of wish they had encouraged me when I see this process explained in such an interesting and involved way .

[@freemanwhiteartist6927]

shane shaw williams it’s never too late my friend ! I’m glad you got inspired watching !!

[@artbyashley6613]

So I just caught this, as a recent subscriber I'm slowly getting through your videos, have to say from an art students perspective in this 30min video I've learned more than I have in hundreds of hours of watching *tutorials* I love that you show and put across that it's OK to go through the process, to stand back or look on your work the next day and think Nahhh it's not cutting it. I've only been painting in oils a few months following yrs of frustrations with acrylics & yep I hold my hand up to getting way to caught up in tiny brush lots of detail and loosing the kenetic energy I was trying recreate. 🙃 here's too those turds and may they forever have issues floating so we keep ourselves learning 🙂

[@freemanwhiteartist6927]

thanks so much for this comment ! I'm so glad you enjoyed the video ..keep experimenting and trying out new things its the best way to learn !! F

[@jackiegarroutte8970]

Nice one Freeman, re-shaped a few paintings myself.😀 Liked the end result, to have this view on the doorstep would definitely be inspiring.👍

[@freemanwhiteartist6927]

I love going to sleep listening to those waves crashing in , so much energy yet so calming ...

[@leighwilsonartist]

Freeman White:artist I agree, I think these sounds are hard-wired into us, making us seek out nature. Looking forward to the next upload.

[@jenniferconnell1216]

Well done Freeman White. You can thank Tischler for me watching. Today on his insta he gave you an awesome shout out. Well work the watch. Now, I need to know what easel you use for plein air because I too live by the coast. It's not in my backyard but it is super close. Painting waves is my jam!

[@freemanwhiteartist6927]

Hi Jennifer . Wow Andrew is an awesome mate and he’s very good to me ! We are planning a plein air adventure soon too !! I use a “sienna plein air “ pochade box which is a great little setup and very affordable compared to many hand made pochade boxes . You can buy them on amazon ! Painting the ocean is a great challenge and loads of fun !!

[@waynevickersart2141]

Loved it bro, the wave was awesome and good info. Well done

[@wordsmith1026]

This video is simply amazing. Your painting philosophy resonates with me dont clean brush or change brush frequently ...as it breaks the flow.

[@freemanwhiteartist6927]

Thanks so much for the positive feedback!!!!

[@thomasjanos2030]

I really appreciate you doing this. I redue paintings all the time because i dont like something.

[@freemanwhiteartist6927]

It’s important to be your own worst critic… as long as it doesn’t stop you your winning !

[@КириллЮсупов-ъ7у]

Очень красиво и правдоподобно!!! 👍🙋‍♀️💖💐

[@ChrisTurnerPhotographer]

It’s strange, I’m a photographer, I love taking photos but when I think about painting some of them it seems impossible lol I just don’t have that connection from my eye to my hand like you do. Very cool man.

[@freemanwhiteartist6927]

Thanks for watching ! My younger brother is a professional photographer and he really knows how to work a camera ... I love taking photos too and always take my own reference images ., but I’m not a photographer really I should try to improve my knowledge of the gear I’m using. Sometimes I think working from life is like a super long exposure and I’m the camera translating the image into paint ...

[@rockyh9630]

Great video, sir.

[@rockyh9630]

Polishing a turd defines what I do to MY PICTURES!

[@freemanwhiteartist6927]

haha i just had to put that bit in and actually it is to date my favourite piece of voiceover that i have been able to include in a video !

[@rockyh9630]

It's a perfect comment. Why fiddle around, just wipe it off!.... I, personally, belong to the school of trying to save the underpainting even when it sucks....and its a rough way to live😔. I need help.

[@MayRobertson-xd2ow]

Great tutorial thank you. The guitar in the background is a distraction please don't be offended because your film is great with the details of what you are using incredibly helpful.

[@harshalsoni6158]

Great painting. Wonderful and amazing work. How did you made the colour of the sea waves, that greenish tinge?

[@freemanwhiteartist6927]

Harshal Soni thanks for watching ... the sea colour is mainly mixed from green umber with highlights over painted using mixes of violet grey ... the darkest parts are almost pure green umber

[@harshalsoni6158]

@@freemanwhiteartist6927 Thank you for you reply. It looks real. Great work. I am inspired from your painting.

[@elizabethrobinson783]

Hello, I am 58 years old and have been painting a whole 3 wesks! I absolutely love it. I am using acrylics, and I was wondering if I can paint t along with you using acrylic, or is it only possible through oils? I am in love with and mesmerized by your art and love how realistic it looks. Any advice for this beginner would be appreclated. I have been watching you tube artists as my only means of learning, I really don't know if I'm starting thing

[@elizabethrobinson783]

Starting this thing right or not. (sorry I hit button too early)

[@judiththomson9233]

Great tutorial -very generous and informative. Do you have a favourite brand of green umber?

[@freemanwhiteartist6927]

Judith Thomson yey I’m so glad you enjoyed the tutorial! Yes my favourite paints to use are “ old holland “ brand in my opinion the best paints money can buy ... the green umber is one of their colours

[@judiththomson9233]

Freeman White:artist thanks- best wishes

[@veronicabelly9497]

Amazing!!!!! 👉👍👏👏👏👏👏👏🙋‍♀️🇮🇹

[@adamkowalski6062]

Mr White, I recently tried to do an amateur Plein air sketch of similar, dark green seascape. I used ultramarine blue, cad yellow and phtalao green but failed to obtain this dark, deep green that's related to cold seas. Is it the green umber that makes this colour in your painting? I would love to have small piece of advice here. Great video as usual!

[@freemanwhiteartist6927]

Yes here I have used green umber and old holland violet grey there is another deep earth green I use sometimes as well called olive green . You could try knocking back your high chroma mixes with van dyke brown and kings blue . Best of luck . I would probably also substitute cad yellow for yellow ochre and pthelo green has a very high tint power so tends to override other colours use sparingly !!

[@michaelgonzales4911]

nice detail! i’m still trying to get waves right with color and shades “ thanx for the tips.

[@freemanwhiteartist6927]

MICHAEL GONZALES awesome thanks for watching ! Many different colour options depending on the reference and lighting of course ...I hope the tutorial was of some help F

[@cidaramos8191]

Lindo! 👏👏👏👏

[@ParkerComedy]

Nice video

[@_GandalfTheGrey_]

That violet gray color is not PW it’s PVV. You can tell because the double V takes the same space as two W’s.

[@Brightsupernova]

Beyond incredible. What u wouldn’t do to be able to paint something that isn’t a stick figure. With a light sound in the upper left hand corner. LOL. The bebop guitar is also ridiculous

[@thedirtygreatful]

You the man dog..

[@Ttelmis]

Well I switched on to pick up tips on waves, Ten minutes in and I lost interest with all the diversions ...but no waves

[@freemanwhiteartist6927]

get those brushes out and start painting ! that's the best way to learn and most of all don't be afraid to make mistakes ...cheers FW

[@lindabarton-towers112]

I loved the tutorial but for me the background music was far too loud and I’ve a throbbing head now…. Sorry! Beautiful work though.
