    Just starting my adventures with oils. Once I've moved house I'll be back at it. I spend a lot of time in Ontario as a canoe guide each year, but live in the north of England, UK. I've a great affinity with the group of seven, and feel your painting style fits with that perfectly. Friend of mine is friends with Eric McConnachie - stayed with them a couple of years ago and have two of his paintings. Would also love to see your palette and mixing process.

    One thing I don’t like about being a Canadian living in Canada is dealing with a fasclst government that has the audacity to call themselves a democracy with the same breath they use oppose freeze peach and mandate Canadian content online, which results in [word] UA-cam content being forced on me against my will. The only thing worse than the people dictating it are those who stand by and watch it happen. If you fail to recognize this today, you’ll end up watching your children pay for it tomorrow.

    Why would you leave linear forms? They look just fine. The only reason to abandon that is, if you want to and are comfortable with it. Otherwise, I like the painting with linear forms.

    Happy to have found your chanel. Not very knowledgeable about abstract landscapes. Love your sense of color, however having trouble with the water. Is it the individual viewers eye that would imagine the water starting from the middle ground and coming into the foreground to as large a shape as they view it? Thank you all the best.

      Thank you. There are too many made up rules about signing ones paintings, that it teaches people to stunt part of their creativity. My first paintings were signed on the wrong side that I was comfortable with and/or right in the corner. I decided I wasn't going to spend my career signing the way everyone else said I should, and I'm so glad because now it's part of the art and a lot easier, and it's me.

    Happy Birthday Mr Robert Painter! Thank you for inspiring me to get stuck into painting. I’ve got lots of supplies (is buying art supplies a different hobby from actually using them?) but was hesitant to really use them. I’m not sure I have an artistic bone in my body but I do love colours and you’ve given me the push to start messing about with them. No pressure to produce “real” art just to have fun.

    Robert, I've never used gouache in this method before. I love how thick you applied the paint to the surface. Can I ask you what brand of gouache you're using here? I've been buying Winsor and Newton Designers for several years. It's pricey, but seems to be top quality. Thanks! Dave

    beautiful painting! I'd love to be able to paint fast like that in an impressionist/expressionist style. I keep trying, but I find it hard to get the depth of field represented and also hard to acheive the bounce of the light in sky and water

    • @TheRobertpainter
      @TheRobertpainter Місяць тому

      For me the key is loosening up and not trying too hard. Almost like scribbling. Just let your brush do the talking and however your painting turns out is how it is meant to be. But regular practice makes for gradual improvement. 😊
