James - what a joy to watch and listen to three different artists as they paint the same subject. I know how complicated video editing can be, so I appreciated having the Norwegian question audio - nice touch!
Fascinating to compare three different artists' takes on the same exact subject from the same angle on the same day! And I'd always assumed Jeanette handled the camera when James didn't have it in his hands or on a tripod, but the moving group shot at 0:11 suggests there's someone else there (unless the camera is on some kind of auto-panning device)...! Also, thanks for including the practical advice about keeping brushes clean, etc. I find concrete tips are both extremely helpful and harder to find.
Hello James….Really enjoy seeing Jeanettes ink drawing at first part of the video. Just got back from a month of drawing and painting in Kenya on safari and the coast and thought about how you put things together…might even send you one or two. Take care
Thanks for that James ! That vídeo was so honest and unique. I would love to see more videos like that! Its a great way to get a grasp on how different people paint the same subject and aproach it with their different knowledge and language to build their paints.
Hope you will make more videos James. The pandemic is crazy, but I still manage to paint more artworks.. Thanks to your videos that keeps me motivated.
Wow! I'm a big fan of Cole and the whole Hudson Valley School Painters. They are some of my favorite paintings to view at my local museum. I loved how all of your sketches turned out. I always get so intimidated by clapboards! That subtle plane change is tough to get too! Well done!
Oh this is one of my favorite places! How wonderful to see three different interpretations. I hope you'll go across the river and paint Church's Olana next. That whole area is a treasure trove.
Interesting building. I actually really liked Jeanette's version of this, it was the only one showing the stairway under the house, which added a lot to the image for me, showing the scale better Every time I hear "Line and Wash" I think of wet laundry on a clothes line, lol. Maybe you could paint that scene!
Hi recovering soul , i love your definition of line and wash .. from now on I wont be able to think of line and wash without getting that visual in my mind lol
@@jennifernewmanart haha, sorry. My neighbors when I was little had one of those umbrella types of clothes lines, on a metal pole that spun around while they stood there and took laundry from the basket and put it up with clothespins. So that's usually what I think of. Or if you're in a big city the lines hung between two buildings
I'm going to Newburgh for a watercolor workshop the first week in September and I'm going to add the Cole site to my plans. Thanks for all your wonderful videos, you are an inspiration. Love Jeannette's work as well!
I have been oil painting for many years and recently decided I want to go back to the basics of drawing and skecting. THIS is truly inspiring and motitvated me to rush my desire for drawing. Due to a spinal injury I haven't been able to paint lately.
What an interesting angle! The house looks really tricky to draw! About cleaning brushes, I usually wipe most of the paint in the brush in a damp towel or paper towel, then it's less for the water to wash up. If you're using certain pigments or paints, it's best not to throw that dirty water out on the plants around you, so I try to make it last.
yeah, that is a good plan to preserve the water by wiping the brush. If you aren't using toxic pigments like Cadmium it "might" be ok to dump water in grass. I've been told never to do that though.
Thomas Cole is one of the finest figure of the Hudson River School of Painting and, in my humble opinion, you would make him proud sir! I just send you an e-mail via your blogspot (didn't even think to reach you directly in this comment section!) asking you if you had any plans to publish a book of reproductions of your urban sketches in watercolor and gouache? (that and your landscapes reminiscent of the HRS of painting!) since it's the aspect of your work I personally prefer and find myself loving more and more with each new post you put out there! I would loooove to put my hands on such a book! Anyway, keep producing such gorgeous work and all the Best to you and your loved ones!
Loved seeing everyone's versions! FYI, throwing pigments out in the grass isn't great for our amphibian friends. Let's keep plien air friendly for Mr. Toad OK? Just like respectful hiking, pack it in & then pack it out. Thanks!
@@JamesGurney I hope in one of the next videos there will be oil painting, your skilss and dedication are amazing, I wish you all the best... (get a new budgie)
On the throwing away the water in the grass.. that is really bad. Some paint shave heavy metals that can SEVERELY contaminate the area. IF there is an underground water source it can get poisoned by it. NEVER throw water with paints on places that will not collect into water treatment facilities.
I think throwing your mud water into the grass is very questionable, especially if you're using highly toxic paints like cadmiums or cobalt blue... Otherwise, great video!
Lately I've been using mostly titanium white (used as a whitener in cottage cheese) and ochres and siennas (commonly occurring iron oxides), but still I don't dump water on the grass. None of us did that day.
@@JamesGurney This was in no way directed towards you. I just wanted to give a heads up to those who might not know much about the topic. Glad to see you care though.
I like Chris’s style but I don’t like the thought of artists just dumping their dirty paint water in the grass wherever they are, esp if that’s someone’s property. Paints almost always have toxic chemicals in them, that seems like you could end up harming any animals if they were to come by and eat/drink something, and even without that it’s still strange that someone would just dump those into the earth :/
For gosh sakes please don't discard your dirty paint water into the environment! Even if it's so-called non-toxic paints. Not a responsible practice. Carry an old small plastic water bottle and put it in there for disposal at home.
Three people, Three style and Three unique. ❤️
Yes indeed and I love this old House so authentic and organic
Thanks!
Wow, thanks for the donation, Anu.
Love seeing how different artists paint the same subject.
AWESOME, SHORT, STYLISH VIDEO !! I LOVED IT, THANKS ALL THREE OF YOU MAGNIFICENT ARTIST !
More please James & Jeanette. Thank you.
James - what a joy to watch and listen to three different artists as they paint the same subject. I know how complicated video editing can be, so I appreciated having the Norwegian question audio - nice touch!
Jeanette's painting has a really cute artstyle, seems like a fairy's house
This was so fun to watch, really enjoyed the comparison of the three different artworks!

A wonderful format! love that you have captured their trouble shooting moments like working with gouache. love love love
Jeanettes turned out beautiful! Normally I finish a video inspired by James art but this time I want to try my hand at a line and wash painting.
All three pieces are gorgeous in their own way!
All three of you are terrific artists! Loved all three perspectives and reactions to the scene.

It seems like so much fun to paint with you guys. ✨
Jeanette’s work is stunning

I LOVE this art video!!! I would love to have art friends like this ❤️ love them all
you're truly the master of plen-air painting. I'm a big fan!
Oh this is one of my favorite places! How wonderful to see three different interpretations. I hope you'll go across the river and paint Church's Olana next. That whole area is a treasure trove.
Your videos are so relaxing. I love it

Very interesting to watch and listen to these artists as they paint the same subject.
COOL! All of three are awesome!
Awesome! Hope a longer video next time.... Love it! Keep safe! 🙏
Amazing painting as always.

wonderful...... enjoyed a lot...thank you for sharing
Three totally different styles, but all of them amazing, great job!
Master artists at work. ❤️
I love ur channel, your art work is beautiful what talent, fun, cool, im determined to learn. I'm glad i found you ❤️
Funny enough I'm planning on visiting the Thomas Cole National Historic Site in a couple of weeks, really awesome to see a video featuring it!
There's a really interesting exhibit going on there right now featuring his work together with Church and Heade.
I have been oil painting for many years and recently decided I want to go back to the basics of drawing and skecting. THIS is truly inspiring and motitvated me to rush my desire for drawing. Due to a spinal injury I haven't been able to paint lately.
Are you painting now all recovered ?
Wow all amazing representations and 3 different styles/artist is so interesting to see different approaches!
This was great! Thanks to you all!
I actually really like Christopher’s work a lot. When I first saw his piece I thought it was in oil.
Excellent discussion - thank you!
Great discussion! Thanks for the insight into your thinkings!!
Hai james. I am very happy to see you again and enjoy your video. Regard from Jakarta, Indonesie

Thanks for a great video , i enjoyed seeing the three different pieces ! each paintings different style was so interesting . Thanks for sharing
Enjoyed.. thanks for sharing
Loved it!
I like that Janette is more prominent in your videos. Good editing on the video. Thank you.
Beautiful
Sharing nice experience..
Waaw I love it ❤️👍
This reminds me of that 3 Disney artist panting the same tree in their style on the weekend
Muito grato!
Love it
best outro in the game
Awesome
A ten gallon bucket full of water next to my easel is helpful :)
Thomas Cole is one of the finest figure of the Hudson River School of Painting and, in my humble opinion, you would make him proud sir!

Love to see the difference in technique and result. And a very random question: Is Jeanette Dutch?
Jeanette is Italian. We did respond to a question sent in from Nyske of the Netherlands.
@@JamesGurney ah! Ok thank you for answering. Love your video’s! 🥰
If you're using a cadmium pigment, is it safe to just dump out the water after cleaning your brush?
Superb
Loved seeing everyone's versions! FYI, throwing pigments out in the grass isn't great for our amphibian friends. Let's keep plien air friendly for Mr. Toad OK? Just like respectful hiking, pack it in & then pack it out. Thanks!
Very, very interesting. Very.
🙏❤
I've been with your videos all week, what happened to the budgie?
Sadly he passed. But he lived to 11 years, long for a parakeet.
@@JamesGurney I hope in one of the next videos there will be oil painting, your skilss and dedication are amazing, I wish you all the best... (get a new budgie)
Hay James, who are some of your favorite artists to watch work?
Please paint dinosaurs! I still have my trusty copy of Dinotopia right by my workstation and it will always be a source of inspiration.
Thought these 3 artworks great. Out of interest, what sort of pochade box is Christopher using here, and what type of paper he painting on?
The pochade is an early prototype sketch easel that I built, and the paper is a wet media pad, not sure which brand.
@@JamesGurney Thanks for the info!
how do you do these without getting eaten alive by mosquitos?
Have any of these use proportional divider. In get the perspective lines?
Aside from everything that I'm learning, I find myself really missing New York.
thank you master WE are not worthy !!
I’m sure Thomas would of got a kick out of your channel!👍🏽
u guys paint in silence? I mean like- no music? wow
Jeanette need's her own channel, ahem @James Gurney.
👍👍
I like all 3 styles. Each one has a different style to it
