    Those sky holes in the purple, brooding clouds make a beautifully dramatic picture!

    Gorgeous painting and such useful tips and advice, I definitely need to see beyond the scene I'm looking at and use some artistic licence.

    Beautiful!!! Have you ever used a sketchbook for practice?? My art isn’t this good and my collect of bad canvas art is growing 😬 I think I may try this in a watercolor sketchbook ❤

    • @MalcolmDewey

      Yes, sketching is important for overall muscle memory and working out problems. When I paint though I do minimal sketching on the painting surface so as to keep brushwork faifly loose. Rather work out the idea in a sketch book.

    Beautiful 😍 I enjoy how you design a completely different sky and match the sea & shore together. This is very helpfull because my brain has a hard time seeing through/behind what I literally see.
    Thank you again!

    Your painting makes me want to go to the beach! Really lovely. Thanks for the tips. I’m going to try your suggestions in my afternoon painting session. For the highlights are you using titanium white? Or do you add some color?

    • @MalcolmDewey
      @MalcolmDewey  7 місяців тому +1

      Thank you. Yes titanium with a warm color mixed in. Could be yellow lemon for a really punchy highlight. Or yellow ochre for a little less. Titanium on its own is too cold.

    Ive just found your channel and im really pleased as I'm new to acrylics. Your videos are very inspiring and i cant wait to try out your advice tomorrow. I very much like the changes you made to your sky. I heard you say there were too many horizontal lines in it otherwise and id been thinking that too but only because earlier today I'd watched your free course and that's one of the things you said to avoid. You see, i was paying attention. I also like all the paintings you have on the wall behind you. Take care
