Thank you Michael for all of your suggestions. I’m a newbie with oils. I’ve only painted with watercolors and acrylics. I bought some small panels, a set of brushes, an assortment of paints with 12 colors to be exact…but they are the small tubes, and beginner level too. And I didn’t forget the odorless mineral spirits! I’ve watched a few of your videos, and I’m excited to start this journey. You said recently, “paint shapes, not things”…I will follow that advice! Take care, Loraine

Thanks for taking us out to Pacifica. I really enjoy watching your tutorials and how you set up the composition. I’m using some of my videos from around the bay to do my own “Plein air”. Recently, I’ve been focused on city scenes, like the favorite eating spots, Tony’s in north beach, and the little corner stores. Now that I have time......I’m working up the nerve to try a new style and composition.

Michael, I have become a big fan. I appreciate how you break down the steps of your work. Truly admire your loose but expressive brush work. On this video, you began to show us exactly how you mixed paint for the sky and the earlier rock forms as well as the first ocean values. But then you rushed through the rest and did not demonstrate the mixes for the finished product. That was a mystery. As one of my instructors told me: 75 percent of painting is mixing the correct values for the hues chosen. Please try show us more of your mixing magic.

Question from a new viewer - I've searched for an answer to this with no success...maybe because it's a silly question to someone with your experience, but I'll ask it anyway. When the support or painting surface is white do so many artists use a palette that's brown or wood color? It seems to me you'd want to see how the mixed colors will look on the white surface. Great videos, instructional and done very personably. Thank you, Sir.

@daveart482023 жыл бұрын
@@chamberlainpaintingsThank you for the quick response. So, I guess one becomes accustomed to mixing colors on a toned palette over time? Do you use a white one indoors? In pictures of the masters at work in their studios, more often than not, they using brown (or the natural wood color). So for you, the only reason is because the brilliance of white would overpower the color-mixing process. I've been painting and illustrating for 50+ years, but very recently have gotten really intrigued by plein air and impressionist painting. Again, thank you for the response. It's fun and inspiring watching you work.

I have the desire to paint outside with oils but I have a hesitation to overcome!! I do plein air painting sometimes with watercolor but that is not the same. You don't need much and you can paint more in a sneaky way 😎. I know I just have to deal with the things that holding me back. I am a little bit jealous of the seascapes where you live. I love the sea very much but in the Netherlands the seascape is flat, even boring, But....every landscape has his own beauty and maybe you have just to search for the thing to make it an interesting painting.
