The Long Driveway - Painting and Travel

The Long Driveway - Roane, Indiana / Interview in Kimberly, Wisconsin
Roger paints on location using oils on a Masonite board toned with Burnt Sienna to create warmth in the painting as the green grass is applied over it. Dark tones are painted first then Roger lightens the composition as the painting progresses using the lightest tones for the road. Sarah visits the Jack Richeson Company where they manufacture oil paints from organic pigments milled and mixed in carefully monitored batches.

We sure enjoyed it up there. A great antique shop in the town too.

Enjoyed watching very much ! The finished product is very painterly . I also appreciated you using oils - I paint in oil - so I find it quite informative and useful 🤗👍 I will look forward to seeing more‼️🎨

Thank you so much!

I know this may be contrary for so many following you Roger, but I find your oils much more interesting than the acrylics...I sense you like the acrylics more (and you do a masterful job with them) , but thank you for throwing in an oil every now and then!

So excited to see the little painting I purchased from you in the beginning of this video. I got it at your St. Augustine workshop a few years back. I look at it every day. Thanks Roger.

Why bother with oils?
