As an Artist I have lived in Oregon my whole life and can testify that we have one of the most beautiful coastlines ! We for some reason went to Washington coast at Long Beach Peninsula as a child and only have discovered the Oregon as on adult ! Happy Painting ! your work is beautiful 🎨😉👍🏼

[@roslynr9767]

Indecisive? You are now my go to girl to watch paint! That is me in a nutshell! Thank you!

[@bgastein]

Wow! What a nice video! Love the narrative and camera work! All that was very nice, but your painting was the cherry on top. Way to go!👏🏼 thank you for sharing. I will be checking back to see your future works.

Beautiful work!

[@claudebernardin1096]

Thoroughly enjoyed this! Nicely done! A difficult value scene for sure. So relaxing. You are very teacherly articulate. Which added much. When I paint, I find it very hard to talk at the same time. To an audience. Well done.

[@AnnaRoseBain]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@armandocepeda7763]

Excellent demo. Keep up the good work.

[@emilyadams6194]

You are clear and articulate in your descriptions and decisions! This is very helpful in understanding your color perspective and composition. Am also impressed by your confident brushwork. Very nice demo and final painting. I agree that Oregon coast is exceptionally beautiful.

That was so good! I throughly enjoyed watching you paint this beautiful setting. You explained all your steps, colors and thoughts. Thank you for sharing your experience with those of us that love beauty, for one thing , and strive to improve what we do, striving towards our dreams. In this video, I felt closer to sharing this experience, than any other video. It was truly a wonderful time spent with you while you painted. Thanks again. Looking forward to the next one. 😊

Your painting turned out gorgeous, and I absolutely loved watching your process! So incredibly helpful. PS regarding your difficulty drawing trees, as you have said, I recommend cutting down all trees, and then there will be no more difficulty painting them, for anyone.

[@AnnaRoseBain]

Haha! You and my dad would get along awesome. He is a certified tree farmer.

[@AnnaRoseBain]

Thank you! I have not tried them very seriously. I have a bunch sitting in a drawer somewhere... 😛

Just discovered your channel, and I especially loved seeing and hearing your entire process, including trial and error and making changes in your composition. Really inspiring, thank you!

[@marvinhirschfield9999]

Much more interesting than the real scene.

[@AnnaRoseBain]

Wow, thank you!

[@matineesonmainstreet2005]

The easiest way for me to decide where to paint is to determine whether the view I see will fit well on one of my canvases. Its surprising how often i find views that don't fit, so it's a good way to reduce the indecision.

[@AnnaRoseBain]

That is a very good point. Agree 100%!!

[@DeanMarsh1962]

Excellent! I love it, thank you. And what easel are you using? Thanks again, very nice.

[@AnnaRoseBain]

Thanks, Dean! I was using my Fly on the Wall easel from Prolific Painter.

[@DeanMarsh1962]

@@AnnaRoseBain thank you!

[@loreleibell6287]

Yeah, don't use a fan brush. You just need to figure it out. I use a different brush for any one tree. But I use acrylics, so I do it differently, I suppose. I LOVE to paint or draw trees. Probably because I used to (a million years ago), climb them. Anyway, I look at how the light hits them, especially the ends. Painting the dark first, and then light after that, to get the highlights. My husband and I went to Oregon coast in 2018, and it was magical! Hope you get some good paintings!

[@Mike-ux9qz]

Love your video! I would like t get started painting but I can't draw.

[@AnnaRoseBain]

Thanks! Drawing skills definitely help but with landscape you can always fudge it a bit. ;-)

[@joanbauman1571]

Beautiful!!! Did you pre paint the board/canvas that brownish/orange??? Is that better than a white?

[@AnnaRoseBain]

Yes, I toned it. It’s nice to have a middle value on there to start instead of stark white.

[@joanbauman1571]

@@AnnaRoseBain do you tone most all of your boards and do you have to let them dry for a couple of days?

[@pleinaire8698]

The Oregon coast is mesmerizing but please do your thumbnail sketches BEFORE you start painting!!

[@phillipstroll7385]

Vasari? Jesus, you buy expensive paints. No no no no no no. Lol That's so odd. I find portraits to be more difficult for me than Landscapes. I can do a portrait, but to capture the emotion, essence, spirit of the person; to make them apart to be alive and living their best life, I find very difficult.
