- Given to me from a friends garden & too good just to eat I had to paint these pears first! (Love the shapes & colours). In this video I talk about plains, tonal values, colour mixing and alla prima - thick paint.
I hope you enjoy it and please do Like this video and Subscribe to my Channel.

The pears are an old variety called: Pitmaston Duchess.
I’m primarily a landscape artist but want to paint more still life’s. This is quite helpful. Thank you for this demo. ❤
You are most welcome Tony, thank you!❤️
I do like your still life setups, some very pretty props too. You do say sunlight in your commentary....wo der if it is sunlight or skylight looks rather steady. Watched a couple of your demos..very nice indeed. Many thanks
Thank you Suneeta! I don’t have a skylight in this studio… Glad you enjoyed the videos thank you for watching! 📽👩🏻🎨❤️
So nice to see a still life. Lots of diversity recently... Landscape, seascape / boats, portrait and this still live. Excellent. It still always amazes me, even after all these years how much thought goes on, that you share with us, about the shadow, shape, colours, negative space. It's always such a lovely story with a brilliant ending! Well done ff ❤️
Thank you Poppit Sam!! There is a lot of thinking in painting. So lovely to have your support 💖😘x
Oh my, I always learn so much from you Clare.
Thank you, happy to help!❤️
I have enjoyed your seaside/boat demos, but this is the first still life that I've seen. It's just as wonderful! I appreciate your process and your calm! Thank you!

Thank you Remon Hatah!🙏❤️
Your channel was recommended by UA-cam. I watched this video and I must say you have a personal style. Congratulations and keep going. Setting up a still life is al ways a challenge trying to get the lights and shadows right. You are brave! ❤ One thing I notices is the two pears together. I mention this because I learned many years ago the meaning of ‘kissing’ in art. I was suggested to never place two objects together, they should be entirely apart or overlapped. I believe when objects are overlapping, they give more character to a painting. I haven’t found much info about it, but now I’m cautious. May be you can check about it. I would love to hear your thoughts about it. New subscriber! You provide lots of inspiration. Blessings and take care.❤
Hi Crisalida, thank you very much for watching and for your thoughts. I agree you do have to be careful of ‘kissing’ objects to make them work as a composition. I wanted them all on the same plain. I appreciate your input. With best wishes, Clare
Excellent friend congrats
I love your still life paintings; they are very artistic. I’m an amateur watercolourist but I find this video and your other video painting a lemon very inspiring :)
My pleasure 😊Thank you!
I enjoyed the video~ You do a lot of oil painting using a bristle brush. Do you do glazing afterwards? When do I want to see it too?
Hello, I use a bristle brush for the bigger areas and nylon for the small / detail parts. I don’t glaze 😊
@@ClareBowenArtist That's right~ There's no other meaning I was just curious~ I'm enjoying watching
💖✨✨✨
♥️💙💜
Pls add turkish subtitles ❤👏👏
I am sorry but I cannot add subtitles Turkish or otherwise! I am a painter not a videographer!👩🏻🎨🎨
Very nice painting. What is your color palette ? Thank you
My colours are:
Titanium, lemon yellow, cad yellow, yellow ochre, scarlet lake, permanent rose, Viridian, cerulean, cobalt, ultramarine, burnt Sienna, raw umber. I hope this is helpful! 🎨
@@ClareBowenArtist Thank you for your quick answer. I wonder if you can explain more in depth why you use permanent rose and scarlet lake ( I mean, alizarin seems to be a more common option ). Thank you in advance.
Hi Clare! Cheers from Texas. I just have a quick question. I've noticed a little "L" shaped trough on you pallets (studio and Plein air). It looks like a simple PVC corner guard or similar wall trim. But could you clarify what it is and why you use it if have a moment.
Hello Scott, it’s called a Palette Garage from the USA. Mine is an 14” you can order them from Great Art Tools. Best Clare 😊🎨
@@ClareBowenArtist Thank you, love your work.
regarding wet on wet doesn't the under layer have a tendency to blend altogether. Or there must be a skill in layering was it all wet each time you put a brush mark down.
Hi Susie good question! Putting thicker paint over thinner. Plus angling the brush parallel with the board helps not drag the under layer up. Hope that’s clear. Happy painting!
Did you have a light on the still life
I had natural light - a large window to the right of it :-)
Did you wait for it to dry in between while doing the layers
Hi Susie, no I didn't, I painted wet on wet in one go :-)
What size brushes are you using
Hi Colleen! The brushes I use mainly are Rosemary & Co Ultimate Bristle long and short flats! 👩🏻🎨❤️
😸😸sorry for CAPS
No problem! 😊
What is your background colour?
Hello Sarina! I am so sorry but I simply cannot remember! 👩🏻🎨❤️
