Greetings Richard, this Thursday feels like a beautiful Sunday. Wasn't expecting a new video from you today, but - hey, I was happy to put up with it and watch it. 🙃Again a marvellous scenery, made with wonderful colours, a piece of Australian paradise, because nature only cares about itself and not about what is happening around it. You've nailed the perspective excellently, and the sea looks absolutely spectacular. I do love the greens in the water. - Thanks, Richard, it was a pleasure watching. Take care and have a nice weekend.

[@richardmusgrave-evans9886]

Really appreciate Cora, thanks for watching, enjoying and commenting!!!

Stunning

[@davemalt2451]

Beautiful painting Richard. I’m using more painting knife now after watching your work. I love land and seascapes, so I watch you a fair bit now , even though my stuff isn’t up to your standard I enjoy the challenge. So thanks again, I hope you’re on the tube for a long time to come. 😎🇦🇺🦘

Hi Richard I love your style, it is unique and beautiful…thanks for sharing…. 💖

[@ianmalcolm4731]

Thanks again Richard!… You’re a bloody genius 🙏 if only it was so easy for the average novice like myself… at 73. You are an inspiration for me Richard and I’m sure many others around this planet.

[@richardmusgrave-evans9886]

Wow, thanks Ian, cheers mate!

OMG. I love it

[@jacquelineb2149]

Hello Richard. Super beautiful seascape both on your canvas and in your video. The colors are incredible and i find that the foam of the waves which throws itself on the rocks, in the foreground, is magnificently successful. This moment spent with you is always too short, it does us so much good, especially with the current horrors that our neighbors, the Ukrenians, are suffering. Thanks a lot.

[@richardmusgrave-evans9886]

Hey thanks Jacqueline! Glad I'm helping :-)

[@Koloherides]

really nice. this what I paint mostly. sea scapes. love when you do your magic on the skies very realistic Thx Richard. peace

It is a great demo! I enjoyed to watch the wonderful video. Thanks Richard!👍👍

[@christinebarnett1221]

New to palette knives. I'm super impressed with your method of incorporating both palette knives and bushes. i love your constant referance to the original landscape and the subtle colors. Thank you!

[@richardmusgrave-evans9886]

Thank you so much!

[@constancearnold9367]

The last minute move to add the gorgeous teal in the tranquil cove was brilliant! Put the painting over the top!

[@richardmusgrave-evans9886]

Thanks so much Constance 😊

[@g.prabhakarrao3992]

Very nice painting sir you are working so nice

[@nev707]

Beautiful scenery. I never set out to see this when I lived in S.A. Doing this in a studio from photos rather than on site getting blown away by the wind is obviously the best way to go.

[@sylviagutierrez1678]

Amazing to watch you create that piece of art! Absolutely enjoyed every minute.

[@user-cy7pq9wq9d]

Gets better and better, especially the foreground foam and final touch in cove. So bold and beautiful.

[@mariacontreras6432]

Hi. I live un Chile. I Like so much your painting. I Like when you combine videos of the sea while you are painting. Congratulation.

[@cluek9780]

Great to see a painter use a brush like I do- more like a striking/stabbing tool -=> broad marks

[@chrisverry8726]

You are an amazing artist

[@kayleenserene1058]

Your work shows up just when I’m waking. I’m so excited about what’s starting to happen with my work. It’s changing dramatically. It has gone from nice to breathtaking. All since I’ve started mixing and applying my paint as your teaching me. O my gosh. I never realized just how much white gets used and just how you’re those incredible grays. Thank you for teaching me. OKC, OK here. 👍💕

[@marieh8352]

I Just love you style of painting , It’s Great

[@chrisblight6069]

Thanks for another great, informative video and of course a very beautiful painting! I have been a diver for many years and I can almost feel the pull of the surf and the tranquility of the bay. I think you captured the nature of the ocean so well in this painting.

[@tanna1812]

Wow, another coastal masterpiece. I love watching you transform a white blank surface into a beautiful peaceful seascape. Your coastal paintings are my very favorite. Such an amazing talent you are gifted with. It would be a dream to hang one of your seascapes in my home as I love the seaside. Maybe those lottery numbers will come through for me one day! :-) And that footage from your drone is breathtaking. Can’t wait until you paint again. Enjoy your day!

[@richardmusgrave-evans9886]

Hey thanks for watching Tanna👍😊

[@kathleendowney8633]

I just discovered your videos. I must say this seascape is absolutely breathtaking. I love the ocean and lived in Florida for years. I now live in the mountains in North Carolina. The Blue Ridge Mountains are my landscapes. Must say this video taught me about using the knife, which I am going to try. Thank You so much and Gob Bless. Stay safe.

[@richardmusgrave-evans9886]

Hi Kathleen, glad you discovered my channel! Thanks and hope you enjoy giving knife painting a go🎨😊👍

[@CosMosArtistry2016]

Gidday mate, great to see your cheery face greeting me today. Another seascape/landscape to whet the appetite. Caught those magnificent cliffs perfectly. A perspective treat to the eye. I have become well aware of how you move your body with the brush/knife, that movement transferred to the canvas in ebbs and flows. Each action seemingly random and yet, each placed with intent and purpose. The strokes of turquoise in the bay were on point. Thanks once again Richard, be safe. Cheers, Rich

[@richardmusgrave-evans9886]

Cheers Rich! Yes, I reckon that last bit of turquoise helped lift the painting!!!

Hi buddy, I was looking for the fish hook collection on your good hat Richard.. a tale of the scent of the sea. 🙂 to match your painting. I can tell by your enthusiasm this will be another keeper. Off to get the required cuppa to enjoy this one. You are a joy to watch mate and I usually watch each video over time at least three times minimum. I think it’s your happiness to get cracking into a new canvas and the pure joy of just being in the moment. Lotsa good wishes Richard and ‘good stuff’’ 👍❤️👍
