Painting With a Limited Color Palette (Timelapse)
I painted this with just four colors plus white. Alizarin crimson, transparent red oxide, cadmium yellow, and ultramarine blue. The subject is the botanical gardens in Queenstown, New Zealand (I’ll branch out from New Zealand subjects soon!).

How I Painted This New Zealand Landscape: Part 2
Переглядів 6 тис.2 місяці тому
This is part 2 of my Arrowtown Reflections painting demonstration. In Part 1, I set the foundation of the painting. Now, it’s time to go around and refine what’s on the surface, add some more intricate details, and bring it all together. All up, this part took about 6 hours, but I’ll distill it down to a few key steps and decisions. You can watch part 1 here: ua-cam.com/video/d48NBhZaqSw/v-deo....

The Painting Process: Big, Simple Shapes and Colors
Переглядів 15 тис.3 місяці тому
One of my best painting tips, no matter your skill level, is to focus on the big, simple shapes and colors at the start and reserve the more intricate and complex details until later in the painting. When you’re a beginner, you tend to go the other way. You get lost in the tiny details at the start of the painting and then you try to fix the big-picture aspects later on, but this is counterprod...
Painting an Autumn Landscape (Timelapse)
Переглядів 11 тис.4 місяці тому
This painting depicts Arrowtown in the South Island of New Zealand, about a 10-minute drive from Queenstown. Chontele and I spent our honeymoon there back in April. This will be the first in a series of paintings based on that trip. I used oil paints, brushes, and palette knives on 12 by 16 inch Ampersand Gessobord. My overall thoughts: It was a challenging subject, but I’m pleased with how it ...
Painting "Fallen Trees, Striking Contrast" (Timelapse)
Переглядів 24 тис.5 місяців тому
This was a surprisingly tricky painting, particularly around the water. It took around 5 hours all up. I used brushes, palette knives, and oil paints on Ampersand Gessobord. Most of the painting was done wet on wet, with a bit of wet on dry toward the end. One thing I did well with this painting was working fast at the start and getting most of it done whilst I felt in the zone. In prior painti...

Oil Painting Timelapse: Elora With Christmas Lights
Переглядів 17 тис.7 місяців тому
This is the most complex painting I've done to date. It's nighttime and Elora is illuminated by several different light sources of varying color and intensity. All up, the painting took about 17 hours, much of which was me tinkering with the subtle color relationships to get it just right. When painting your child, everything needs to be just right! I don't talk over the video, but it will give...

Why I Stain the Surface
Переглядів 19 тис.8 місяців тому
(Note: This is primarily for oil painting.) A common question I get is why I start many of my paintings by staining the surface with raw umber or some other earth tone. In this video, I’ll briefly explain the reasoning behind it, how to do it, what subjects to do it for, and what colors to use.

    Thanks so much - just found your youtube channel. I am newly retired and have purchased a couple of your courses - I am a stone cold beginner but have always felt I have a painter hiding inside of me. I love to frame my photos as if I am going to come back and paint them. My Christmas list is all painting supplies!

    Why do you start with th crimson background when it all gets painted out?

    • @drawpaintacademy
      @drawpaintacademy Місяць тому

      Good question. It is mostly to help me judge the colors. It also gives me the option to leave parts of it exposed, though I don't always exercise that option. That red tree in the back is mostly the surface color showing through.

    love the textures and broken colour. I would have liked to know if/when you let the paint dry between sessions, and when these were in the video - I'm presuming the scumbling is over dried paint?

    I was reading your tips on muddy colors. It made good sense to me, except I am still confused about cool & warm light sources, as I try to apply it to this video on autumn landscapes. You stated, "If the primary light source is warm (yellow/orange), then restrain the cool colors. The warmer the light source, the more you restrain the cool colors. If the primary light source is cool (blue), then restrain the warm colors. The cooler the light source, the more you restrain the warm colors.". In your autumn scene, would the sunlight - reflected off so many trees - be considered warm (golden), cool (from the blue sky) or neutral (full-spectrum sun)?
