Thanks!
I love how there isn’t excessive detail in your paintings, it reminds me of what an old memory looks like - just enough detail but over time it generalises into something beautiful like one of your paintings.
Thanks Julia! Love that comparison! 😊
I loved the colours of Saffron and Dark Berries🇿🇦🇿🇦❤️❤️
I just watched Emma's latest video in her childhood room and the paintings there are amazing .They give calmness and happiness just like a child
Thanks 😊
Th blue car in the foreground is an absolute winner - half in shadow and half in the light. It sets the stage for the entire painting. Really nice work.
Thanks Jay!
I love your paintings, there's something special and nostalgic about them!
😊
i LOOVE your paintings and your energy
very calming☺️
It's crazy, you're just a couple streets away from my house. Beautiful painting!
I just love your way of thinking about painting !
Beautiful painting - loose and radiant. Amazing how you are able to simplify.
Thanks Maura!
I love how the window on the storefront turned out. You’re inspiring me to be more lose when it comes to painting. I find your videos super calming
😊
so cool! your painting style is so unique and interesting
Boy that certainly was a challenging one. Your thoughts and transparency in your process is very helpful. How? It shows us we can doubt ourselves but, keep going and be surprised and pleased at the end. We can evaluate and learn from our mistakes and successes. Very encouraging. Just keep on painting and keep on painting. Thanks Michael, that was a good one.
Thanks Barbara!
I was gifted a box of oil paints and you’ve been such a wealth of both knowledge and encouragement. You’re attitude and approach are inspirational and I appreciate you sharing so much of your process. Thank you, Mr. Chamberlain 🙌🏽
What a nice gift! So glad you've found my videos helpful! 😊
You looked a little nervous and under pressure and the result is a bit less than your usual plein-air. Yes that car saved the painting. And even though i really like to see you out there struggling at any situation. Well done my artist friend. You means much to lots of artists that watching you mostly doing Plein air and teaching them some lessons.
8:59 left, under the white building face, slender fem silhouette, Lady, her green longish dress, her hair, come towards you look on , about the corner sidewalk, “the umbrella shape and shadow silhouette holding it, feels as a , movement. The reflections through an air shadow , between the buildings and up the street, subtle reflection from the cars through shade. Cafe windows , ‘ near where you point, expressions in the windows but as though from within the cafe. All your city scape cafes so wonderful ❤️😎
I learned so much from this video especially your steps at the end. Thank you so much
I love watching your videos it’s so relaxing and your painting style is amazing :)
this is so beautiful I love your painting style!!!!
Thanks Mariam!
good advice...a limited palette promotes color harmony!!!
Thanks! YES!!
You’ve inspired me to do a couple of cityscapes - from my photos - but look forward to getting out and doing one plein air. Love your San Francisco scenes.
😊
Your process and method advice is really, really helpful. So grateful to you for all your time, commitment and encouragement in helping other artists to get out there and practise. Thank you.
Thanks! I'm so glad you find my videos helpful!
I believe you're one of the best artists of our generation, you should take a vacation and come to Wisconsin, between our rugged great lake coasts, our old world small towns, and our huge pine and hard wood forrests, countless inland lakes and rivers, I believe you'd fall in love with the beauty and scenery of the great lakes states, just watch out for bears.....lol...
Thanks! I’d love to visit Wisconsin!
Getting the perspective accurate is my challenge with cityscapes!!
Very challenging!!
you mentioned 'painting vocabulary' at 12:54 ; such a cool way of describing how you learn as you paint! really informative short commentary at the end of the video, will perhaps try to pick up painting when my school exams are over, great video! :)
It was fun watching you paint a street in Sant Francisco.Your city. What was happening around you was fun to watch too.Such as a cable car go past.I live in England and find it interesting seeing cities in America
San Francisco is a fun city to paint. Like most cities, there's always a lot going on. Never a dull moment!
Mike, I like how you talk about your process step by step. It refreshes it in my mind again. Your still my inspiration and I’m sure I speak for others how much we appreciate your sharing your knowledge and techniques.

Thanks Barbra Joan! 😊
Perfecto el contraste de luces y sombras, Michael. Creo que los coches y el efecto de la luz en ellos son perfectos también.
Muchas gracias!
man the way you bring it together is so fascinating i wish i had this talent. Love the vids 😊
Thanks Grace!
Great work again dude -
Thanks for the tips/encouragement at the end - Im gunna go paint right now!
Thanks Angus!
Have you ever thought of pre-painting the architecture/road shapes before going on site so you can spend more time on your color and light? Essentially just the initial tone and line drawing ahead of time. Might take some of the looseness away but it’d be a fun experiment?
AND I just saw a guy who has a book out on limited palette; he painted exactly the same little painting 46 times only changing the 3 color palette used; the differences were amazing.
I tried pre-sketching when I first started painting cityscapes on location but I didn't like the results. I don't expect to go out and have a successful painting every time. I want to be challenged. It's the best way to grow. That book sounds interesting!
This is so calm to watch and the painting ended up beatufiul as always, big hug from Peru! :)
Thanks Sandra! 😊💛
I sure wish I got all your fantastic advice and demonstrations long ago. I tried to paint in younger years. Bought everything. I know exactly what color you are talking about. It’s very difficult to teach art. I’m old and very shakey now but sure like watching. Thanks.
Thanks Janis! So glad you're enjoying my videos! 😊
this is my olllddd blockkk so cool to see this
love what you do helps me get motivated to paint I will be joining your patron page soon .Thanks
Thanks! 😊
I thoroughly enjoyed this video, as I do practically all of your videos. And, your reconnaissance analyses are always interesting… I must say that I didn’t find the yellow building on the left at all awkward and think it nicely balances the vivid colors on the right. Great orange color there on the awning! Love your work and your inspiring talks. Thanks so much for creating these and sharing with us. ❤️
Thanks for the feedback Lisa! 😊
I love how you draw and the way you sketch.Send you lots of positive vibes
Thanks!
Im saving this one because the process feels v clear to me now. I want to try it.
Always a great Monday when we can view your most recent creation. Thank you for sharing your process and thinking. 👏🇳🇿
Thanks Lesley!
Love your channel!! So talented, so content, so inspiring!!
😊
That was a great exercise in simplification. Obviously the painting has to be planned, but as you get into it, I'm sure things reveal themselves, and show you where to simplify. Beautiful piece. Nice light.
Thanks Matthew!
I enjoyed watching this video ❤️
That’s my go to corner shop! 😊 Jen recommend me your channel! Thank you for the content and thought process. I have yet tried painting a city scape, will definitely keep your advice in mind when trying it. Thank you Michael!
Oh cool! So much to paint in your neighborhood.
this is so calming i love it
Amazing it’s making me want to leave Paris for SF
😊
Your painting is so beautiful!!
It is such an inspiration ❤️❤️
Thanks Charlotte!
Nice
great painting, great day, very nice work.
Thanks Hazel!
THIS IS AMAZING !!❤️
Thanks! 😊💛
i love your youtube channel, you're such an amazing artist. Thank you for posting dude ( :
Thanks Glenn!
Maybe you could try to precise the shadows on the right with a lil bit of "eye shadow" face make up
So cool!! Love your videos and paintings :))
😊
As soon as I saw the streetcar, I remembered my younger self eating Rice-a-Roni.
I remember the commercials but I don't think I ever tried it!
@@chamberlainpaintings At least once a week when I was a kid. Do they still make it?
New to your channel! I thoroughly enjoy watching your process! So fascinating! Thank you for sharing your talent!
Michael , even now , in what appears “simplistic”, look down the further corridor, of buildings, gaze above at adjacent roofs edge, “” behold see “” the Bust Image of a Grecian Demi - God “” , upon the right, , in the style and manner of which we can still see so many carvings of in existence today, not relics, but masterpieces, (even not looking , now, I can see it ) ❤️ at ten thirty three
Nice job!
Thanks Robert!
Lots of great information as usual. Thanks 😊
That looks like where Steve McQueen drove in Bullitt. I like you're style of painting.
Yes, it is!
Very Cool
Totally agree about cityscapes being much more difficult because of the intense drawing required. i've been toying with the idea of either just doing straight drawings of city scenes to get better of that in the field, or also painting in black and white and just focusing on drawing and tone with plein air. A focussed practice like that isn't as alluring to me as using a full palette but every time i do a cityscape I always feel the difficulty of the drawing and as you said so many colors to figure out. I really liked your point about finding a spot in the painting that worked. I RARELY feel like an entire painting is totally good. usually there are spots that work and spots that dont. I think for us students of art, the more we identify and learn from those the better we become. Great video as always!
Thanks Danny! Like you, I've thought of doing straight drawings or color studies but I never do. I'd rather just go for the full painting experience 😂
Good advice and info Mike 👍👍
Thanks!
Behind the three loose cars see the person , torso and up, there behind them, , seen in your close up of that area, love your painting
Thanks Mark! I always appreciate your observations 😊
Lovely video. AGAIN. Thumbs up here! Thanks for critiqueing your own work and mentioning what does and doesn't work. Very educational. Also that we shouldn't be too hard on ourselves, especially with such a complicated scene.
You mention how you want to frame your work at the start of the vid but I don't really hear you voicing your focus of the painting. Which has me wondering: do you have the intent to focus on something specific when you start off or is it more an overall feel for the composition, possibly with a few details that you want in there?
Thanks Mike! My focus is on composition. I look for a pleasing arrangement of large shapes. Details are ok as long as they don't detract from the overall design. 😊👍
- ( michael, gotta say, 5:32 Angelic , the bristle suspended , freeze frame : )
- 4:55 - ( so many paintings in palette mixes : )
With an element of danger; back to the traffic
The jacket tells all the tales biographic
Changing light and chasing shadows
I hope it’s warm or else your toes froze
Shapes big to small, colors dark to light
Magical moments; turns out all right
Patreon to “stay creative”
The pull is gravitative
😁
I loved seeing the close ups of the mixed paint and the brush strokes. Fantastic work on the car and the shadows. I even like the areas you are not particularly pleased with at the moment. It is great life advice to trust the process and pay attention to what is working. Thanks for sharing! Peace and love..Suz What ☮️💚🌻
Haha, yes my toes were very comfortable. Thanks Suz! 😊✌️💛
The painting looks really good so far! Always super interesting to hear your reasoning behind color choices and color mixing. One thing bugs me about the composition though: the straight line of cars in the middle, it feels as if the middle ground splits the scene in two halves. Or is that just me? :)
Thanks! I thought about that when composing, but I've done compositions with cars in the middle on several occasions and it doesn't bother me. Obviously if it bothers you that's ok! 😂👍 There is no right or wrong answer.
@@chamberlainpaintings That's right! :)
You are such an inspiration!!❤️❤️ thank you for sharing
😊
I really like that painting but I get stuck on whatever the light green vertical is - is that a sign or apart of the building? I love the composition and the loose way you painted the street and the cars - nice! I don’t know how you do these in such a short period of time!
Thanks Elisabeth!
All that information on the street..."but the steps are always the same"...no more truth than that. I like street scenes a lot, maybe you could make one in the coast one day and one in the city the following day and so on...just a thought.
Thanks Martin! That's a great idea 👍
Great job, sir! I think it's a pretty good painting! I really like it. Amazing! Nice to see San Francisco, it has really cool architecture. Have a good one!
Thanks Olda!
@@chamberlainpaintings Cheers!
Ambitious. Very cool. You mentioned that you were going to paint that corner again. Would you go back and finish this painting or is that not practical? Likewise, would returning to finish this painting go against your goals as a painter right now (e.g. plain air painting in one sitting)? Great video.
Thanks Andrew! I would go back and paint another painting. I never return to a location to finish a painting.
Love you bestie ❤️
😊💛

I am turning into a big fan of yours, just after three videos... You are doing something right. :) Could you tell me what camera you use for your videos? I want to buy a new one for myself and need some orientation ...
I use a Canon G7X Mark ii. Glad you're enjoying my videos!
I love you so much💗💗💗
😊
This is insaneeeeee💓💓
Excellent 🎯
Thanks Jeff!
Yess new video!!!
🌆
Nice composition !
Thanks Auguste!
I love you
😊💛
I really love this work, do you sell your work? You’ve inspired me to be more free with my brush strokes I always find myself being shy with laying on the paint
Yes, I have an annual show at Studio Gallery in San Francisco: www.studiogallerysf.com/michael-chamberlain-21
great job!
Thanks Bud!
A magnificent painting! You're a master of shadow, much like Edward Hopper! A quick question about sketching if I may....you do all your sketches in burnt sienna on a burnt sienna dulled canvas....all of which result in a beautiful end result. Is there any rhyme or reason to using this color, or will any color work equally as well?
Great video!
Thanks Molly!
king
Love it:)
Must be difficult to park nearby and lug your gear about , well done 👍
Thanks! Transporting my gear isn't a problem. I usually walk about the same distance, or more, when painting in a rural setting.
Excellent, just enough detail to give a sense of place. You're lucky with the weather, as it's dull as *&%£ here in the UK!😄
Thanks Mark! Hope you get some sunny days soon!
I get your “process”. I get setting a time limit, not working too carefully… understand the big shapes and loosely refining those big shapes. but it’s the sketch that can’t be done that way for me. Or accuracy in details. Cannot do that loosely, just can’t without a mess. Cannot get accuracy with out carefulness. If you can enlighten on that, you would really be imparting some wisdom!
As I mention the sketch is difficult for me as well! I'll make a Patreon video on the subject
Just amazing how you simplified such a complex scene. What was your total paint time?
Thanks Roger! It was about 1 hour 45 minutes.
👏🏻👍❤️
😊🙏💛
-( pure coffee i. v. and I’ll be fine, although late )-
Good morning Mark
thanks for this video! do you change something later in the studio?
Most paintings are completed outdoors, with very minor touch ups later in the studio. If a painting doesn't work out the first time I'll go back and try again, instead of reworking it in the studio.
How much for art classes kingg :))
Still trying to figure that out. But in the meantime I share everything I know about painting here on UA-cam, for FREE. 😊
hello sir 👋🏻 do you feel awkward when someone asks you about your painting while you're working on it?
Not at all 😊
sent PCs video support michael, can youhelp
Are u sure U couldn't get in more of a precarious position 🤣🤣🤣🤣
😂
