I rarely comment on videos, but I have to say your content is dramatically improving and even from the start it was good content. The way your videos are formatted are perfect and it’s just hypnotic to watch, Bravo
@@NATA5II Traffic going by, people walking by stopping to talk to him, etc. A lot more distracting compared to being in your studio in your house, right?
Now THAT'S what I'm talking about! 18 minutes of James Gurney in action! Love it! And love all the info/explanations throughout. And the painting is fabulous!
I genuinely acquired a huge interest on learning to draw/paint the moment I first saw one of your videos, It was almost instantanous. I can only thank you for creating some of the most inspiring content I've ever seen, to the point that if I ever manage to become a somewhat competent artist I'll be damn sure it was you who began that change in my life.
You are such a genius man. Love your techniques and materials and subjects. I am so inspired. I am a 67 year old, hard to impress brit and you so impress. Thanks also for your hard work and endless videos and comments which inspire young and old. Much respect!
That was brilliant. I am an oil painter but deep down my love for watercolors always make me watch these videos. Amazing tips. Will use them in my next journal entry.
Haaaaahaaaa yep ....i sat and stared at my car keys when i got my keyless Toyota! Great artwork ! Such a fun paining to do! That plastic grid is an incredible idea! Really helpful tool. Thanks for a great video , the light is incredible!
I really enjoy when you try to introduce new "tricks" into your editing/filming process. Whatever format you decided on for this video is really doing it for me. I appreciate you putting in just as much time in your presentation/documentation as you do with your art.
The satisfaction levels are off the charts with these videos. The painting even your voice is just soothing. Damn you! I wanted to be productive today lol
How you improve your quality with each video Is so amazing Mr Gurney! Been following you for 3 years and seeing how you try the most to show your paintings in interesting ways Is so inspiring. Thanks for teaching me so much through these videos!
When you're driving one of these cars you're not just driving the car, you're driving the dream behind the car. Loved that quote... And when you're not driving one of these cars you're living the fear behind one of these cars... Too many of us are not living our dreams because we're living our fears... Always love to see other artists in action. Great video.
James, I agree with the the 3.2K people who gave you a thumbs up (01/15/20) and don't understand the 24 who went the other way. Those who paint with light, as you do. bring so much more to their art, elevating the mundane (in this case a car) to something sublime and frankly, delicious in its own way.
I think this is one of my favourite videos you’ve produced! The extended length is very helpful. It gives so much more information even with the speeded up sections. I’m really learning a lot from both the imagery and the commentary. Thanks for this extended format, please keep it up!
I love seeing you paint and explain what you do, because it's enjoyable and also because smoetimes you do soemthing that just looks RIGHT and then you mention it in a word or two why you do it (like the raised values, the warmth of the side mirror etc., next to the flare) and my brain just goes BOOM! Realizing rather obvious visual correlations like this makes me feel stupid, but atleast I'm learning, lol :)
Great tutorial which makes so much sense as you describe it. I wish I knew how to dab, light handedly sketch paint in this fashion. I'm so very detailed, and dont know how to change it. Not that I dont like my own, but would love to learn this process! I'll just keep watching, and maybe one day!
What a gorgeous piece! Really glad you mentioned the motion blurr, for something that is "fantasy" it is good to have real world elements to make it more authentic! I would not have even considered it but the effect is magical as is the soft lens flare at the end there.
Morning James.... very nice, you'd think the car dealership would barter a lower price on a vehicle for a nice painting by you. It would probably be an investment for them! I enjoy your paintings very much and have learned a lot about Gouache from you. I mainly used Gouache in the past for just highlights in my airbrush paintings, but have since considered using it in more detail from start to finish. Thanks again.
Really impressive painting. You’re right about depth of field and motion blur effects. It makes a great difference in visual perception. Oh, and I loved the chalk trick, it looks like a lense flare indeed. Congrats for this amazing piece. I enjoy your videos so much. Cheers from sunny Spain 🇪🇸 👍🏻
I stopped in at a uniform store and got a bunch of them for my street painting buddies so that we can look more official in urban settings. A painter friend named Steve generously made up the "Department of Art" patches for us.
Awesome video James. I love how you dive into the your personal narratives, and how they inspired different portions of the painting. It's important to see how the artist must use more than just technique, although yours is fantastic. Great Stuff
I was try to figure out away to do this and up popped this video. I didnt even know if something like this could be done in the field. Thanks for sharing some of your tools very helpful.
You are a painting genius. I learn so much from your videos. I do feel scared to try these techniques because of a lack of confidence but still your vids are so educational to me as an aspirational painter. Your videos are incredible Thank you!
Another fantastic video James! Thanks so much. Every time I watch one of your videos I get a new idea, learn a new technique or how to solve a problem I've been having. My big takeaway this time around was your grid system. I was just in the woods last night wishing I had something like that. By the time I got to laying down the details with the gouache it was so dark under the forest canopy I could hardly see what I was doing. Wasted too much time sketching. Going to have to build one of those grids. Thanks again James. Best wishes.
What a painting in an hour! Thank you again for sharing your knowledge. The new videos contents are great! And your son did a great job with the camera too :) I am mostly learning painting thanks to your videos and books. Thank you again and cant wait to see what is coming next :)
I love watching your creative process. I'm a digital artist but the techniques used are still just as invaluable. Sometimes choosing the right colors is hard for me but seeing how you use color is really inspiring
You've been busy! Great job on this video, and great tips! ... I did the exact same thing with the keyless start when we were out test driving just a few months ago... so you're not alone there hahaha
LOL! Still, these “up in the air” Jeep displays seem to be ubiquitous, at dealerships, (at least here in Northern New England) and very dynamic. Some time, he and/ or his viewers might just negotiate to have a different model (if preferred) up on the pedestal. “You don’t *ASK* , you don’t *GET* !!” James, I love the green screen on this intro. Thanks, in general for your soft, reassuring discussions of art techniques. Brings me back to my old Commercial Art and Graphic Design classes in high school in the 70’s, just at the dawning of computerized typesetting.
Wow... if i could have you paint my car to hang that picture in my garage i'd hand you quite some cash... If i'd sit my butt down already and start painting it myself i'd owe you quite some cash i feel. :) lost my patience for arts lately, you are so inspiring giving me a kickstart back to it. Thank you

The sun reflection at the top of the Jeep looks SO good. I want to be like you when I grow up. I'm 40. Lol.
Lmao
Same here, I'm 35!
HAHAHAHA
😜👍
@@ForeverArt0 wats with the prof pic😂👌
Hah, I'm 50 and a professional illustrator and I still want to be James Gurney when I grow up!
I want all car ads to be painted now
Waynimations the 1930’s were an interesting time to be alive. Great ads.
You‘re really spoiling us lately Mr. G! 18 minutes of nicely edited insight into your craft topped with this beautiful piece. Thank you once again!
I rarely comment on videos, but I have to say your content is dramatically improving and even from the start it was good content.

Bravo
Always impressed with your ability to work in such distracting locations.
Yes!!!
A street isn't really distracting tho is it?
@@NATA5II It would be to me.Especially if I were painting.
@@NATA5II Traffic going by, people walking by stopping to talk to him, etc. A lot more distracting compared to being in your studio in your house, right?
the quality of your videos, sir.. best of the best!
one of the best artists on youtube currently.
These are by far the most thoughtful videos on UA-cam. Exceptionally entertaining, and masterfully executed.
Now THAT'S what I'm talking about! 18 minutes of James Gurney in action! Love it! And love all the info/explanations throughout. And the painting is fabulous!
Hes always a great inspiration to me, as a budding artist.Hes the master teacher!. Its like getting lessons from Norman Rockwell!.
When a subjects begs to be rendered in gouache, the Department of Art's first responder, James Gourney, is on the job!
the more you look at it, the more it gets cooler
I genuinely acquired a huge interest on learning to draw/paint the moment I first saw one of your videos, It was almost instantanous. I can only thank you for creating some of the most inspiring content I've ever seen, to the point that if I ever manage to become a somewhat competent artist I'll be damn sure it was you who began that change in my life.
Your videos are the perfect way for me to relax of an evening.
You are such a genius man. Love your techniques and materials and subjects. I am so inspired. I am a 67 year old, hard to impress brit and you so impress. Thanks also for your hard work and endless videos and comments which inspire young and old. Much respect!
So, so clever in all ways. James Gurney is the master.
Your control of the value and colour shift in gouache is enviable.
Even more impressive is doing that painting with the setting sun in your eyes.
Just brilliant. Amazing how James finds the wonder in the everyday. Super video
That was brilliant. I am an oil painter but deep down my love for watercolors always make me watch these videos. Amazing tips. Will use them in my next journal entry.

That plastic grid is an incredible idea! Really helpful tool. Thanks for a great video , the light is incredible!
I'm not fond of cars, but one has to be able to draw anything and every one of your videos is a real delight.
Formidable , merci James !
James Gurney, a great artist, and a great teacher!
How many things you are doing simultaneously....painting, video, Answering questions....OMG....multitasking
It's always a pleasure watch you paint. I appreciate the innovation, like answering questions, the camera shots, the green screen... thanks James.
Realy like the subjects you choose to paint,this is real art and artist like you were and are high demand for advertising...it is amazing
I really enjoy when you try to introduce new "tricks" into your editing/filming process. Whatever format you decided on for this video is really doing it for me. I appreciate you putting in just as much time in your presentation/documentation as you do with your art.
King of lights..in painting
Wow! What a car!
The satisfaction levels are off the charts with these videos. The painting even your voice is just soothing. Damn you! I wanted to be productive today lol
Love the Q&As and great questions you picked. Those were the questions I've had about your gouache for a long time.
UGH james gurney you slap. Youre the best keep staying gucci
lolza

This is sooo good, i always go back to your old videos, so pleasing to watch 😮
Wow! This is awesome! Love your work James. Thanks!
You have uploaded the most incredible videos from your channel to help me past the time.
Thanks so much! I own several of your books and these videos are such a helpful accompaniment!
James, I agree with the the 3.2K people who gave you a thumbs up (01/15/20) and don't understand the 24 who went the other way. Those who paint with light, as you do. bring so much more to their art, elevating the mundane (in this case a car) to something sublime and frankly, delicious in its own way.
Beautiful!!! It's a watercolor, and different parts have been given very fine detail, and others painted broadly and expressively.
These videos are very amazing! Definitely teaching me new techniques about painting I had not previously known about before. Keep up the good work!
“We’re gonna make this jeep famous!” 😆
I think this is one of my favourite videos you’ve produced! The extended length is very helpful. It gives so much more information even with the speeded up sections. I’m really learning a lot from both the imagery and the commentary. Thanks for this extended format, please keep it up!
Another fine teaching moment with the added skill of making the mundane and neglected everyday world richly detailed and unique. 👍
Another MASTERPIECE JIM GREAT WORK
Thank you so much for your videos, I really enjoy them!
Mr.Gurney is mastery. Thank you!
Very very cool! Amazing work! 👍👍👍🙌
Great - new video by Mr Gurney. Love it!
By god you are talented. I just bought a bunch of art supplies because i'm inspired. I'll make a mess but hopefully improve!
James , this is wonderful!
Amazing work, makes me want to do more plein air painting!
Beautiful, sunny Jeep :)

Your killing me...love it!
I learn more from these videos than I do in any art class I’ve taken. Good job!
I love this James!!
the lens flare with the nupastel is great idea at 16:50 Thanks for your videos
I really enjoyed this video! My favorite of yours so far. Thanks for making it!
Your water color paintings are so amazing realistic I really enjoy watching your videos!!
thank you james you're the best
Das ist Realismus. Perfekt.Gratuliere .Mr.James.
