When I paint now, I often hear Phil Starke's disembodied voice in the aether helpfully admonishing and advising🙂. TY
That's Spooky for sure but also true!! :D. Like all good teachers, still with us or otherwise, you hear them speak when appropriate.
Sounds creepy but I'm glad its helpful, thanks for listening
Good one Phil, shadows can be a bugaboo for painters, mostly by making them too "black". That's the surest sign they painted their picture from a photo reference and copied it verbatim. You can see the color variation in shadows as you showed, especially in the snow, if done as plein air. It's worth getting out there and painting in winter. Even if you do freeze your ass off in the process, you will learn something about broken color in a landscape, in snow, and elsewhere in the scene! Again, Edgar Payne was a master at it.
Thanks Ron,painting outside does help the studio work
Phil, this video helped me tremendously! Especially the part about just making simple statements instead of trying to sneak up on it as well as looking to the adjacent dark or light area to judge the value instead of staring right at it. That mistake has cost me countless hours of frustration. Thanks!
What a fantastic video!! Many thanks for repeating ideas frequently so we get it! Yay
You are so welcome!
Very helpfull information about the shadows. I can underestand your amazing explanation. Thank you
Glad it was helpful!
Thank you Phil, helpful for a couple of scenes in the works
Good to hear!
Thanks for sharing a video discussing color in shadow and how to vary to achieve depth and variation of color. Plan to give this a try. A difficult concept...but one that should greatly improve my paintings.
You are so welcome!
Thx Phil! I learn a lot from your videos, I recently joined your membership, I'm a digital artist, can I share my digital paintings in the group to get feedback?
Hi, yes you can. That would be great.
I found your video is the most helpful and informative among all others.
Thanks. Glad it was helpful!
