- Today I wanted to show you in a Plein Air demonstration how thinking of the big shapes in your painting allows you to be looser and more painterly.

I fall short of words to express how valuable l find your videos. It’s also the most peaceful content to watch on the Internet. Thank you for doing what you do .
But for your videos which encourage us to focus on the big shapes, some of us (who are self-taught) would be foxed by the myriads of details that confront us. And when you start and paint those shapes in, we marvel at the effortless way you seem to factor them all in. Truly inspiring and "encouraging" for beginners like me.
When I began my journey a year ago (I did hire an art online art coach for 8 months) I watched artist videos and only focused on how they held their brushes. Bob Ross was my first experiment. I watched his videos daily for 7 days, not his piece, but how he held each brush he used and how he moved his arm/shoulder etc. Then I went about creating a painting in 20 minutes. I have 7 amazing paintings and an incredible knowledge of how to approach holding and using brushes. As you watch your videos, forget about what they are painting, watch how they use their tools, it will help you tremendously!!
Thanks again Krishnan.
That's an interesting perspective Dinese. How you use your tools.
I don't think about it much but when you point it out probably there's more going on that I notice. I'll have to think about it. Thannks.
@@IanRobertsMasteringComposition Yes, I am making to observe that in your videos, mainly because Shibasaki, also youtube and speaks Japanese, made a huge effort to get a translator to aide him in sending the message to always observe what he has done to his brush and angles of use. It alerted me to the concept before using one and it is a dimension the beginner should learn to observe, (I am a beginner, too). I would feel more confidence in a bit of brush tutorial and am looking to those, including care of them, especially if out doing plein air. I would prefer not observing only a realist... for difference of use and comparison. I use acrylics and scrap thick papers to play with types of possibilities of what brushes can do and get used to holding them without too much tension.
Thanks for another great video. I love when you draw on the image digitally to illustrate what you're talking about. It's also helpful to see the images side by side, whether the photo and the finished painting, or the block-in and the finished painting, or the original photo and the cropped version, etc., to get a sense of the differences and the choices you're making. And it's always great to get to watch you paint.
Thanks so much Michael. Delighted you found it helpful. All the best.
Hello Ian.
Wonderfuly helpful video. I just bought your book "Mastering Composition" last week and I can't wait to get into it. Thank you for your time and for your assistance to all of us amateurs who are learning the craft and fitting painting in to a very busy, cluttered life. Many late nights are spent at the easel after a long day at work. We paint because we must, and having info such as yours is so incredibly helpful. Again - Thank you! -Gina in NC
Hi Gina - I'm delighted that you are enjoying the book and videos.
I will never thank you enough for posting these videos that are little jewels for my learning. Regards
You're very welcome Sylvain. Thank you!
LOVE IT!!! LOVE IT!!!! What a Master you are, Ian Roberts!!
Glad you enjoyed it. Thank you
Thank you Ian. Your choices and demo simplicity here made this video quite effective.
Glad it helped Michele. All the best
I've learnt so much ... I need to be reminded about simple shapes constantly! Going to get the book for myself ... my treat to me. Thanks Ian
I know you will enjoy it, Sue. Thanks so much
It is so wonderful to see you paint and to receive such valuable instruction! Thank you!
You are so welcome Robert. Glad you liked it
Thank you Mr Roberts! I have no painting instruction other than a few drawing classes in college. You’ve definitely became one of my ‘professors’ one of the best on UA-cam!
That is kind of you to say, Will. Thanks so much. Glad you find them helpful
Ian Roberts: SOOO VALUABLE & INTERESTING!
Thanks so much
I am so appreciative of your lessons.

I bought your book about two months ago. I love it. My work has improved so much. Thank you.
Hi Jo, glad you are finding the book and videos helpful. Thanks for letting me know. All the best.
Thank you Ian. It looks so easy when you do it. We live near the Rocky Mountains in Canada. The beauty is overwhelming. This video really helps me learn to crop those massive scenes and find a good composition. Your book is extremely helpful on this journey.
That is wonderful Jan. Enjoy the process and have fun with it.
Your explanation of the painting details is amazing
Ooh. A cold opening! Great monumental testament.
HI Marti!
Many thanks for your demo , a happy Christmas to you and for bringing colour into winter .
I've only just begun with your book, Mastering Composition, but I find the voice that comes through very pleasant and supportive, and of course, instructive.
It makes my day to receive your video and gives me the jumpstart and inspiration I need to make the time to get out there and paint! Thank you!
Great video. Thanks for sharing.
Greetings from London. I wanted to say thank you for all of your videos as I've been watching them weekly (now monthly) for the last two years and look forward to a new upload each time. I feel I have learnt so much from your lessons about the value of composition and contrasting value masses, and the importance of leading the viewer's eye with colour and detail. It's so rare to combine such a clear teaching style with an ability to draw on examples of the teacher's own work which are themselves so beautiful. Thank you!
Really delighted you have been enjoying the videos these past couple of years. Thanks for letting me know. All the best
absolutely beautiful painting !

I have just ordered both books! Your videos have made me a better artist. You are the best art teacher I have seen. I learn something every time I watch your videos. Thank you!
Thanks so much Edi. Really appreciate your telling me. All the best
Thankyou so much. YES! Big shapes. I must do this more often...well all the time. I can highly recommend your books.
Wonderful. Thanks so much and I am delighted you like the books.
That was a fascinating look at a landscape that I know I would've struggled with. The overwhelming scale of the place would have indeed overwhelmed me---I can tell just from your photo. Once again, your seeming effortless ability to simplify, and with such beautiful results is compelling. I try, I really do, with each painting, but I find myself getting caught up in nit-noid details and it's infuriating. I'll keep working at it of course, but I doubt I'll ever achieve a similar smooth, straightforward approach. Thanks for another great video Ian!
I am delighted you found it helpful. Thank you Evan. Have fun with your next project
Thank you Ian, I also agree that your drawing digitally on the painting is so helpful. I look forward to your next video. I believe I could hear daily to get those big shapes in!
You are very welcome Beverly. My videos are always here to re-watch!
Love your videos
Thanks so much Michael
Hi Ian ! I am always astounded by the beauty of your paintings ! I wish I could wander inside your landscapes and enjoy the enchanting light you create and the luscious paint that just carves out the formation of the rocks ! You always make it seem so effortless yet you are the Master of composition and also of explaining in such a simple way that anyone can understand what you are talking about ! Thank you ever so much ! I too wish you and your lovely wife Anne health, creativity and happiness ! Warmest regards ... Lorraine 🤗🎨
Thanks so much Lorraine. I really appreciate your letting me know. My very best wishes.
I have both your books and love them! Thank you!
Glad you like them Yvonne. Makes me happy to hear
Loved this! It was so encouraging to see you drawing, then erasing, then re-drawing. I like how you explained putting in the large shape that slants to the left to the focal point and then you put a little cloud up there to emphasize it. Bravo!
Thanks so much Patricia
Very good point! I glad could see you in two weeks!
Thank you Zhang
Monument valley, simple and stark??? Oh my I see it so differently. So many amazing shapes rising out of the ground. I could never focus and choose just one like you did! I just stop and stare when I have the luxury of going there on my travels. Truly one of the most amazing places in the USA. Fabulous lesson as always in planning and simplicity. Shakes shapes shapes… mantra… 😂 nice to see the grey cardigan come out😊 I am going to check out your smaller book. I have the Mastering composition and have given it to three other artists as a gift so good timing to remind me about the next gift….
Hi Alison, delighted you enjoyed the video and thank you for recommending my book. So I agree with you about Monument Valley. When you're in it, it is magnificent, and complex and rich. But when you come to paint it, and I find this with all plein air, whether Provence or Maine or wherever, you have to settle down and find a tight, crafted crop, some simple shapes, that gives the feeling of the whole, because you can't paint the whole. So I looked for those shapes, which I called simple and stark, that could imply that majesty. All the very best for Thanksgiving
Conteúdo incrível! Obrigado por compartilhar! Abraço do Brasil!
Muchas gracias Augusto
Well done, sir.
Thank you Bob
Oh Ian, I do get stuck sometimes in too much detail! Lol! I do know when I am doing it! The lose brushstrokes are so amazing! This is fabulous! Thank you!
You are so welcome Megan. Have fun with it and all the best.
Thank you Ian, lovely and very exact! I will happily continue with the two courses I have left for this year! Looking forward to April 🌺

Great, informative video, Ian. Thanks for all you do. Will never forget how helpful your weekly videos were during the lockdown, how much information you shared.
That is kind of you. Thanks so much
I got Mastering Composition several years ago. Reread so many times it’s starting to fall apart. Definitely a must have.
Thanks Lorraine for letting me know. All the best.
Wonderful lesson. Thank you. Your lessons really help me focus.
You're very welcome
I just got your composition book. Excellent! Just like your videos.
Thank you very much Louise! Makes me happy to hear.
I've been experimenting with this method of painting in the big shapes first, and it works! Thank you!
You're very welcome Sharon. Thank you!
Two posts this month… what a bonus! Another fantastic demo… thanks Ian!
My pleasure Franco
Thanks for your great guidance! 😊
You are so welcome Suarez
Thank you 🙏 thank you!! Have to get your book mastering composition!! Indispensable. Great advice
You are so welcome Joann. I know you will enjoy the book.
From Nan: I really appreciate your recent videos' direction: showing us your thinking as you paint, your live decision-making, and the end results. Digital overlay comparisons (like how you stretched shadow to fill picture plane) help too. Thank you so much as always.

I really enjoy your lessons & purchased your book, Mastering Composition. I believe my painting has improved considerably thanks in part to watching you paint.
That makes me very happy to hear. Thanks Virginia

Great video as usual....I really need the reinforcement to get my brain off the details and on to the big shapes. As a retired visual merchandiser my job was to see the details and its really a struggle to get my mind into the idea of the big picture. This does help! thank you again
Thanks so much Betsy
Thank you for this.
I'm glad to see you mentioning your books. I was gifted Creative Authenticity a few years back. I've re-read it more than once, and will continue to reach for it occasionally ~ it's like coming home.
That makes me very happy to hear. Thanks so much and all the best.
Thank you Ian.
Very welcome. All the best
What a fantastic demo lesson this painting is!!! Thank you! I am thankful for your videos!! Happy Thanksgiving!!
Hi Robert, glad you enjoyed it. I guess rather than Thanksgiving best wishes I'll do Christmas now All the best.

Thank you, Ian for your instructional videos. They are so helpful in developing technique as well as creative purpose!
Glad you like them Christine!

It is my pleasure Lieder. Glad you enjoyed it
The book arrived within 24 hours and it is excellent - I also have the essays, which really make me think.
I said this in my email, Ian but would like to share it: You are the first person to really make me think about my work in many many years. I had grown too comfortable, churning out tjhe same old same old year after year with my palette largely based on earth colours. What I find so refreshing is your use of complementary primaries and secondaries to control tone and temperature. Plus, of course, the simplification of composition. My work is already benefiting from this. Thank you.
That is very kind of you to say. Thank you Keith. Delighted you are enjoying the book as well. All the best and happy holidays.
These are great books! I would highly recommend them.
Thanks Kerry. Delighted you enjoyed them
thank you! like.
You're very welcome
Wonderful demo, Ian. Thanks so much.

Still waiting for Amazon to ship your book and really looking forward to reading and learning from it.

I just discovered your channel today. And subscribed. I started painting about a year ago and self teaching, and was finding myself trying too hard and becoming discouraged. Every time I would draw out an idea first, I could not see the relation of it to the painting I wanted and then just painted on the fly, and my perspective was off. I see what I am doing wrong now since watching your videos. Thank you.
Glad you found my videos helpful and thank you for subscribing. All the best.
Yes !! Happy holidays maestro!!🎊 🎉
Happy holidays! Thanks Joann
From the whole to the part......ok, not the other way round. I totally agree, thank you Ian.
Yes, Ana Maria, it makes a big difference. All the best.
Thank you so much Ian !
You're welcome Rivail
Great video on the use of big shapes, Ian. Hope you and Anne have a wonderful Thanksgiving and I'm looking forward to the 6th and more great "painterly" information. Be safe.
Thanks so much George. Happy Thanksgiving to you and your family as well. All the very best
Thank you Ian Sir for this videos.I learned a lot from these Videos. I bought your book mastering composition . just now It arrived. I am not a artist but trying to learn . You are a great teacher and I always mesmerized by your teaching and your generosity to teach . Thanks again from India Pune.
You are very welcome Meena. My best wishes for your artistic journey.
Lock down was made tolerable with your videos. I’m still painting because of them !
Appreciate your telling me Sarah. With best wishes.
Thank you for sharing your great knowledge! It helps a lot!🥰
You are so welcome Nataly
Dear Ian, I bought both books of yours without paying attention to the reviews. Just trusting in your talent and the genuine of your good nature. I bless you and your family in Jesus’ name.
Glad you like them and thanks so much
Thank you Ian for another insightful video. I look forward to getting a copy of both books and am glad "Mastering Composition" is again available.
Wishing you and your family a happy Thanksgiving.
Fantastic. I know you will enjoy them, Paul. Happy holidays and all the best.
Very valuable lesson. Wish I had really understood this early on in my painting . Great post Ian... and I still revert to Mastering Composition and Creative Authenticity :)
Hi Greg, thanks and always good to hear from you. All the best.
Another great informative video!
Glad you liked it!
Thanks for another great video and greetings from Ontario
I highly recommend Mastering Composition it is a great book that I reference frequently
Thank you Barb. Glad you are enjoying the book and my videos. All the best
Just purchased your book from Amazon, I cannot wait to digest it. Your videos have helped me tremendously. I still work from my head and not outside and I understand there is so much to learn from being outside. As a budding conceptual artist, I will find your book my new bible for setting up what I see in my mind to paper, then to canvas. Thank you Ian!!.🤗
December 6, it's a date!!
Delighted you are enjoying the videos and hope you find the book as helpful. Painting outside, nature is such a good teacher. Bit of a learning curve, sure. But the experience of being out there in nature is the best. All the best
Great lesson. Thanks!
You're very welcome
I always leran so much from your videos!
Thanks so much Tim
You are someone I would love to buy a beer and pick your brain about art and life, Ian.

Hi Ian. I really enjoyed this video. I hope to go to Monument Valley one day. You have certainly shown how to simplify. Thank you and Happy Thanksgiving! g
Hi Gayle, all the very best to you for Thanksgiving as well. It's a long drive but a very special place. All the best
Thank you, this video is very helpful!
You are very welcome
Awesome
I asked for this book for Christmas. 😊
Sounds good,. Hope you find it really helpful. All the best
Thank you!
You're welcome!
The rose rocks and clear blue sky were a wonderful antidote to the weather the last two dank days in England! * see below. I was fascinated to see you focusing on the big shapes which emphasised the verticals when the natural strata of the sandstone were in horizontals layers. It should be so easy to mimic nature and to lose the dramatic composition. Often you show us what to ignore! * No sun - no moon!
No morn - no noon -
No dawn - no dusk - no proper time of day.
No warmth, no cheerfulness, no healthful ease,
No comfortable feel in any member -
No shade, no shine, no butterflies, no bees,
No fruits, no flowers, no leaves, no birds! -
November!

I sympathize on the weather Ian. Being in California now locals claim there are seasons here. And while it is true, sort of, coming from Canada it just seems warm and sunny all the time. I remember those November days. All the best.
I have only started painting a couple of months ago and your videos and website have been invaluable, so thanks a lot! I’m using acrylics and applying your principles as best I can, but if you had any advice regarding painting in acrylics I would be most interested. Your book is on my Xmas wish list 🎁
Hi Jeff, good luck with your new painting practice. The main thing I would suggest with acrylics is spray the panel with water and add a retarder to the paint. The main issue I find with acrylics is because the paint dries so quickly the painting gets edgy. The brushstrokes start leaving edges that are too hard. So keeping the paint wet softens that. All the best.
Thanks Ian for your time and advice, much appreciated @@IanRobertsMasteringComposition
I love your demonstrations. And I have your book which i use as reference.
I have a question: if i get my value a step darker, how would you suggest I lighten it afterwards? Thank you again
Delighted you are enjoying the videos. and the book. Are you talking about watercolor. Because then large wash that are too dark well that can be a problem. With oils you can just lay in a slightly lighter value. But also it helps to lay in a two or three color one next to the other to text the "key" of your painting to make sure you have the values basically in the ball park before laying in the whole mass. Hope that helps. All the best.
I have down the "big shapes". I would love for you to show us how to finish the painting with
more detail techniques. For example, you darken and dull something down, how do I do that?
Smaller details use different brushstrokes? Thank you for your very informative videos.
HI Amy, next video is the same idea but more intricate so perhaps that will address your questions. I don't really paint details really. Rather I paint smaller shapes. That may seem like splitting hairs but it is a different way of thinking about detail. As I say hopefully the Dec 6 video will address your questions. Or part of them. All the best.
Hi Ian, you are great! Can you share the paint colors you used?
I put the paint colors in the description of each video. It would be underneath the video on a desktop view and you will have to press "more information" (or something similar)
