Thank you so much for explaining what to look for and not just painting a rock and expecting me to copy you (and then call it a "tutorial")!! Much appreciation from this Aussie beginner ❤

This was useful, I'm in the middle of a painting and guess what? I have alot of rocks to paint and was not sure how to tackle this. Now I can paint these with a bit of confidence.

[@michaelklein5242]

You're terrific, thank you! I'm a semi-talented artistic type (my career was in music, I'm good at drawing, etc), but painting is new to me and this week, painting rocks has been frustrating! I know the basics, about values and so forth, but can't get it together very well most of the time. Your instructive and personable presentation has helped a good deal. Very appreciated and looking forward to more from your studio! 🎨

I have seen many artists but this is commendable Because Teaching is a very tough task and this vdo is very good for learners and bigginers Angle of light is very important Which is not taught or explained by maximum Regards to you Remain blessed ma'am God bless you

[@IntheStudioArtInstruction]

Thank you. I keep saying--without light we don't see anything.

[@angelamccormick2560]

Wow. Thank you so much. I've been teaching myself to paint and couldn't figure out how the artists figure out where to darken and lighten. This helps bunches.

[@IntheStudioArtInstruction]

[@mikeqa1]

Wow, you hit the nail on the head--again. I tend to be somewhat technical-thinking (former math guy), so breaking it down logically for us really makes this easier. As you say, you observe rocks, then paint them, not from theory; but having a 'construct' to frame things with sure helps. Thank you, Dianne ... this student really appreciates your work here for us.

[@IntheStudioArtInstruction]

My pleasure. I'm delighted my approach makes sense to you.

[@jericovildoza4633]

I like the setup you have to hold up your canvas with the paint below. Can you tell me where you got that from? I'd like to get something like that. Thank you for sharing this video with us.

[@IntheStudioArtInstruction]

The rig I use for teaching is the Sienna Pocade Box. I might add that in my main studio, I have my palette set in front of and underneath my canvas.

I'm a bit late to the party on this one, but this video has just saved a painting from being scrapped off the canvas. Those medium values are absolutely critical. You don't realise HOW critical until you put them in.

I can’t thank you enough for this! I’ve been stuck on painting Pride Rock from Lion King for hours and couldn’t figure out why it wasn’t reading as a rock. It’s my lack of knowledge of the light source and shadows, and the entire time I thought it was my colors!

[@IntheStudioArtInstruction]

You're very welcome! Folks don't always realize how important it is too look for what the light source is doing.

Your demonstration of conveying rock structure was great! What colours were used for the different values in your rocks?

[@IntheStudioArtInstruction]

I used a combo of Ultramarine blue and Rembrandt Transparent Oxide Red to create the neutral, the managed the value variations with Titanium white.

[@barbarapenge7409]

This was very helpful. However, what if it is a cloudy or misty day and there is no light source?

[@IntheStudioArtInstruction]

There is always a light source, that is if it's not totally dark. On a sunny day, sun rays come down at the angle at which the sun is located and strike surfaces before they bounce onto other surfaces. BUT on an overcast day, the clouds disperse the rays into many different direction so the overcast sky itself becomes the light source. This causes a dulling of colors and a slight reduction in value contrast.
