So stunning to watch you dancing your composition with this amazing colours using your palette knife like a tango dancer his danseuse 💃 🎨 🕺 😃

[@jameskann951]

You would never get tired of looking at that vibrant Masterpiece!

[@richardmusgrave-evans]

Cheers Nick, thanks!!!

[@cluek9780]

Love this approach. Also, you’ve solved the transportation problem with large, wet works. I’m impressed how fast you can move along, waaay faster than almost any brush can cover, especially when utensil-cleanings are considered:: one wipe and you have a new, clean blade- while I have to use a *dozen brushes! I’m going to find a knife ASAP!

[@BJones-yw4dd]

Definitely give knives a try -- you'll find an entire new world of expression. Happy Painting!

[@dimitrispapadimitriou5622]

That is a really stunning painting. That wild landscape is magical also..

[@billmcgavin142]

Yep you love that place and it sure comes out in the painting. What a magic moment when the sun hits the hills by itself and leaves the surrounds in shadow. Great..Thanks again, Bill

[@richardmusgrave-evans]

Oh yes! Thanks Bill, cheers mate :-)

[@billmcgavin142]

I came back and had a new look at this one. The shadows are so brilliant and just make the painting work. The sky is brilliant and just adds to the mountains. I really like this one. (how does that drone follow you whilst your driving. that's a trick by itself. haha) Bill

What a beautiful Ray of colours, really makes a painting, Thanks again Richard for walking us through your great painting, 👍

The image at 2:10 itself is worthy of a R.M-E painting. Ten Thumbs-Up as always, Richard.

[@robmcculloughfinearts]

I enjoy watching your videos and have been using a palette knife a lot more since. The work you create is very inspiring not to mention the opportunity to see your beautiful country's Outback I almost feel like I'm along for the ride. I know these videos take hours to edit and load on KZbin so thank you very much for your time.

Your videos have been helping me a lot with my anxieties during this pandemic. I've been getting back to oil painting after years of digital painting, and I miss doing oil from my college days. I love it when you run back to look at a painting from afar - makes me laugh with joy every time lol! Love your painting!!

[@richardmusgrave-evans]

Wonderful! That's fantastic! Glad I'm helping in some way!!! Happy Painting :-)

As usual it looks amazing at a distance and then WOW, the close up is brilliant! The plein air study still has something slightly different and special about it. Both are fantastic. Well done Richard! Jill, 🇬🇧

I just love the colours. I now understand why a pallet knife highlights the colours better than using a brush.

[@richardmusgrave-evans]

Thanks Anne! Yes, a palette knife is great for highlights 🎨🎨🎨

BTW, I prefer *this old hat to your (new) topper, tho all wear out eventually. Also BTW, the bottom band at dusk reads “gray” here in Colorado. Love the way you preplan your composition to move quickly once the light is exactly right! I’m a lifelong pro who’s grateful to be learning new stuff from you!

Hey Hazel, sounds like it is all coming along! Happy painting!!!

Dear Richard, Looking out my window thinking I hope you are going to have a really nice day and more. You have excited a grumpy old kiwi to the pleasures and beauty of Aussie bushland. Never thought it would happen. Because of you and your adventure spirit and love of colour with art, I thank you so much for sharing your life. I am hoping you the very best and lotsa paint. 👍❤️👍.

Another gorgeous painting! Question - what size is the larger canvas you're working on? It looks like it might be 20" x 60" but that's just a guess!

[@richardmusgrave-evans]

It's about that size Karen! Thanks :-)

[@oldgold5848]

Lovely work as always Richard. Could you tell me why you have choose to have secondary colours on your palette in the orange and green , and a tertiary in the brown rather than say having a bright primary ie cad yellow and red and cobalt blue with a muted primary say yellow ochre , alizarin and pthalo blue with a white for 7 colours in total... is it just for speed of mixing and the colours you encounter most?
