Tiny Painting Challenge - A Misty Landscape with Ryan O'Rourke

In today’s tiny acrylic painting challenge we paint a landscape depicting a misty lake with light moving through the fog. This relaxing painting tutorial is completed for the most part in real time and will cover the step by step process of how to paint trees, fog, mist, a lake and of course how to make it all look realistic. You can find the colors I used for this palette listed below in the description.For assistance with the drawing process or color mixing process you can find the traceable and reference photo here:

Because it’s real time and so well articulated with such a pleasant person I think these are the best oil painting videos on KZbin

[@d.e.e.2651]

Additionally, this is the first time I have painted with you. Absolutely would LOVE more miniatures, or smaller paintings. Wish everyone could post pics of how theirs turned out. I look forward to doing more with you. Thank you Ryan! I learned a lot. Keep them long! I hate having to break stride to pause with others that go so fast.

[@cassydraws]

Gorgeous painting. I am always a huge advocate that in art, bigger isn't always better! I just adore smaller paintings and love the quickness of them. Thank-you for sharing with us.

[@lisajohns8536]

I am working on this painting myself. I really love learning techniques from you.

[@vaishdeep2852]

I tried it along with the video. It is my first time trying out scenery with acrylic on canvas. It turned out brilliant and I feel so confident. Thank you so much. Love from India ❤️

[@painter757]

i did not know real-time painting was a thing.. i’m subscribed now.

[@robertmcdonald191]

Hi Ryan this comment could take longer than your tutorial I watched your video three times and just loved it finally plucking up the courage to do it, it took me a lot longer than your tutorial about 14 hours I finally finished it and I'm absolutely over the moon with it, my family and friends can't believe that I did it, it's the best tutorial on you tube with out doubt and your lesson on colour mixing is just great, I'm 83 from the UK and started painting about 3 years ago I've learned so much from you and boosted my confidence, thank you thank you thank you

[@RyanORourkeArtist]

Reading this made me so happy! Love that you're finding so much success and fulfillment with the videos! :)

[@robertmcdonald191]

I've got the bug now so I'm going to have a go at winter road at sunset wish me luck

[@belbolser9671]

I also would like to thank your patrons for making these lessons available for the rest of us as you’re an amazing teacher! I’ve been a patron of yours in the past but recently I’m learning pastels, once I’ve got a good basic knowledge of them I hope to go back to learning acrylics. I’ve only experimented with them a little bit but I do enjoy painting. Thanks again! The new series is a really nice change, I enjoy watching!

[@masking8E]

Lukisan yang menakjubkan👍

[@gwendolynfish2102]

Love this series Ryan! Lovely painting! Thank you for thinking of those of us that can’t afford to paint big, but also are facing storage issues!

[@innocentflower7231]

This is so beautiful!! Could you please make more of these smaller paintings? They’re all incredibly beautiful but these smaller paintings are easier to watch and easier to learn from 🙈

[@kayakiranana6059]

This is wonderful! Love your teaching and think that the videos are NEVER too long. I watch them from start to finish! 💕

[@reyllyn24]

Thank you so much for this video! I just finished my painting of this and this tutorial helped soo much! You're talent is incredible! I've been looking for tutorials on acrylics because I wanted to get back to painting and this is the first one I decided to try and it was worth it. ❤

[@dianalemmer4865]

I love the idea of smaller paintings. Your videos are fine and digestible in the time frame of this one. Please keep these type of paintings going. I am currently working on your garden gate in the Thomas Kincade style. Thank you for your wonderful style and teaching you do it is making me a better artist with ever painting I attempt.

[@d.e.e.2651]

I learned so much about color mixing and I’ve never used so few colors in a painting before. So pleased to find a full length tutorial to follow along. My painting turned out gorgeous.

[@meanbean98]

thank you Ryan I did my own version of it i am really happy i did you seem to be the main one that gets me painting because of the time you take to teach .I truly appreciate you and your time. mine is 2 x2 very cool :P

[@AnirbanDuttaasn]

Nice. I like this. Tiny version of your previous misty landscape

[@ruthdallas6125]

Ryan you are not just a great artist but a great teacher. I never heard you had to layer acrylic. One question I have is wouldn’t it have helped a lot to gesso the canvas first?

[@Senbonzakura776]

Very cool work and vid Ryan. The vid length seems fine man, and looking forward to the next one.

[@chenlie3411]

Yesterday,I spent coupon hours just to watch you tutorials. I think is AMAZING in the 5x7 canvas you can put all the details like you do in the big canvas. I personally LOVE this small version. I think is grate for the gift. I hope you can teach us couples more smart painting. Thank you so much 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼

[@nyokwoyofrida2879]

I'm a young artist from 🇰🇪 and your tutorials have been very helpful. I look forward to learn from the best 💕

[@willowrain47]

I just finished this painting today. Ive been a self taught artist my whole life and am always looking to improve. I really enjoyed everything about the ways you explain what your doing. Im looking forward to learning so much more from you. Thank you. ☺

[@nancyangelwolf]

Ooh, I love it! Thanks, Ryan. 😘💕

[@kimwebb28]

i really enjoyed the new mini. It was easier to watch, time wise. The warm, cool color combo looks great. Hope your move is a happy and positive one. Thanks for another great lesson.

[@kdayama5827]

I really wait for your videos.This one is very good.So much packed into much smaller time frame. I do follow along till the end for your longer paintings. With you it does not matter whether the paintings r done in shorter or longer periods...as you say just enjoying the process and a big thank you for sharing your knowledge with us👍

[@karenstrickland8930]

Thank you for you videos! I love them and you have really helped me to improve my paintings. I have actually framed two and have two others on display in my home. I like the mini paintings and I like that I can pause the video in case I have interruptions. Thank you for helping me to make my paintings realistic.

[@kei_art_life]

A beautiful sunset landscape. Accurate expressiveness🌟. Especially the representation of the surface of the water is wonderful.✨ The unevenness of the seams of the canvas is a kind of taste.👌

[@chrissyc4502]

I love this thank you so much 💗

[@leashiahoehn4489]

I just love Ryan’s paintings

[@charlesfairbanks6296]

C's Wife this is beautiful. This is nice to do smaller paintings, like you said, easier to store and less cost to pay for canvases. I display them on small easels when I paint smaller paintings.

[@cutest_animals]

Just love ur art work .amazing work u inspired me a lot thank you for your beautiful work😍😍😍

[@karlatiedemann2377]

Love it will try panting it

[@27jegs]

Love painting detail. Don't have room for large paintings, so I enjoy these lessons. Looking forward to the next video.

[@Atsarts2021]

O Wow 😍,So Beautiful ❣️

[@gwendolynfish2102]

In order to avoid excess tooth in my canvas I lightly sand them with a very fine sandpaper being sure to wipe it down before using. Saves wear and tear on your brushes also!

[@lifewithtaleesi]

Beautiful! Thank you for sharing with us 🙂

[@SM-Artist]

That is beautiful landscaping painting Thank you for sharing 👋💕

Beautiful painting, I jumped out of my seat when your dinner bell rang 😆. I will be doing this one soon. I think the new series is a good idea. I really like the longer ones too. The mist in this one just sets it off!👏

[@sandraarnaut2544]

Merci bcp, pour votre vidéo c’est très gentil de expliquer votre expérience 😊

[@catherinescola6375]

Thank you lovely video, enjoyed very much.

[@am_sanchita2722]

Absolutely loved it!

[@quiltedwithlove]

I attempted this in gouache. Still new to the medium and my reflections/lake turned to mud. However; loved your process and learning how to mix colors. I'll attempt this again as it's a gorgeous painting and the top part of my painting looks fantastic.

[@angelwings7930]

Beautiful. I appreciate videos like this that aren’t “speed painting” or “time lapse” or both. Absolutely hate that kind of art video.

[@basementcreationsbyrhondat6995]

This might be small but this painting is amazing!!

[@RyanORourkeArtist]

Haha, you've watched quite a few of these today! Thank you for all of the kind words :)

[@basementcreationsbyrhondat6995]

@@RyanORourkeArtist I want him you while I’m working. Helps to pass the time when things get a little slow. Working from home it is very quiet, so I like having painting videos on. I love your work!!

[@sy2.083]

Beautiful, TY

[@nawfalahmed4521]

Very good pleasant excellent 👌 Art

[@elleeo1495]

This is gorgeous, Ryan! I had started a misty river kayak scene but think I may modify it to incorporate more sky after seeing this vid. Thank you so much for making good videos on how to paint your beautiful paintings! I love the new series. I usually don't watch speed painting videos, but the 3 hour long ones take more than one sitting. So an hour would be great. There was alot going on in this painting & I appreciate your explanations, so it was well worth the time.
