Missing seeing you painting and your sweet smile and disposition.
Hi Scott. Do you follow me on Instagram? clarebowenartist. I’m planning a live demo later this year showing my painting process and you can ask questions. Dm me if you want to go on the list to be notified of the date.
Beautiful painting. Really enjoying all of your videos! Thanks!
Thank you Joanne for your support! 📽❤️
What a great intro hahaha made me laugh so hard right away…was not expecting that!
Thank you Dan! 😊❤️
I've just discovered your videos. I love youe're loose style and your commentary on composition, colour mixing and application is rellay helpful.
Welcome aboard Peter! 😍🎨
Just amazing nature and drawing,,,,, I very much like it,, Greetings dear friend !!
You are very kind, thank you!😊🎨
To me the color mixing is really really helpful thank you for walking us thru that. Yes , more on color mixing please !
So pleased you have found it helpful Helen! 🎨😊
You need to experiment with color mixing, first establish what kind of palette you want....example- a primary or secondary palette..
Secondary is much better...
No one can mix the same colors as another painter....
It is the beginners very first- basic foundation to accomplish..
As a beginner one must establish their palette....become familiar with color mixing and basics of color theory...and practice to find your "signature brushstrokes " ..
If there's 20 painters all using same supplies, paints and exact same scene sketched on canvas....every piece in the end will appear different, even following an instructor- all going through step by step- following along with instructor- color mixing , block in and so on...
Of those 20 painters- in the end there will be that one piece that stands out from the rest ....
It's the painters ability to see and mix color along with their signature brushstrokes that makes their work stand out from the rest....
Beginners think while learning think of it as your practicing (just like handwriting) the more you do, and experiment with brush marks, manipulation, along with your brushwork - it will become as second nature ....your writing on a surface using paint ....with your brushstrokes and color mixing abilities to tell a story.....one must establish their own signature brushstrokes.....and ability to mix colors ...
Many take workshops spending money, wasting time traveling from one workshop to another- loosing valuable time- time learning on your own....you can listen to lecture on color theory, composition- however, it's each individual that teaches yourself....
This is one reason as a landscape, seascape painter to write in plein air- to learn to see....learn how to develop your composition, understand color in nature.....doing studies like this painter does all the time- then bring study to studio and rewrite it completing the final piece....is the best learning one can accomplish.....
Also, having the Carlson's landscape book, Edgar Payne's composition book and Helen Van wyk on color...
Three best books for all landscape, seascape painters, and will always reference back to them....
Understanding everything within these 3 books- along with establishing your signature brushstrokes and color mixing- one will be at this level- where it becomes second nature ...and writing is a never ending learning journey......Helen Van Wyk book on color is best to understand color theory, how to choose palette, understanding the colors- and gives one a guide to understand what colors mix to make that- along with learning about what colors will not achieve the color- due to color bias....
Have fun to all who is learning, and on their journey. ....
Thanks Clare...who wouldn't catch a moment like this with such a splendid view..?
Thank you Pradeep, a special place!❤️
Yes please. More colour mixing…..! Thanks for another great video…. Nick is such a good cameraman
I really enjoy watching your videos and it's so helpful to see how you tackle each subject, colour mixing and discussing your composition choices. Could you show a close up of your paintings at the end so we can see brush work...face on would be fantastic. Your paintings are so inspirational !. Thanks.
Thank you Skass! Pleased you enjoyed the video and Yes! Nick is such a great help♥️
Loved this! Thank you
You're so welcome!❤️
Kings Blue is wonderful for landscape work. Of course it can be made with a blue and white but having a light blue in a tube is super convenient.
Hello, I’ve since taken kings blue off my palette as just use ultramarine wanted to simplify 😊💙
@@ClareBowenArtist yep it's a convenience color but I still use it as such. That said, I appreciate a very limited palette too.
Love watching you painting! So relaxing and full of needed information. Thank you!
Thank you for your kind words! 🎨🙏
Супер. Прекрасный пленер. Классная композиция. Превосходные цвета. Ещё некоторые деревья были в контражуре. Нужно было этим воспользоваться.
I am sorry but I was unable to translate your comment!
Loves the color mixing. no matter how many times I watch your videos. I always learn so much. Thank you.
You are most welcome Eugenia, happy to share!🎨👩🏻🎨❤️
Always a treat to watch you work. Love, love, love, your color mixing and explanation. So easy to understand, thank you!
Thank you so much Katy! So pleased it is helpful! 😊🎨
Lucky you to live where ou do so many wonderful venues to paint....
I agree, I am blessed with the Cornish Landscape! 🐑👩🏻🎨❤️
Stunning !
Thank you Susan!🙏
You're one of the few, rare painters I appreciate for explaining clearly their process as well as logic behind colour mixing. Not too many are as well organized as you, or capable of expressing their process and reasoning in such a concise and clear manner. I'm a fairy new sub, and have quickly become an unconditional fan of your work, and pleasant, approachable manner of presentation. Thank you so much for sharing your plein air painting experience. And not to forget the videographer behind the scenes ! He does such a fantastic work !
If I could suggest something, perhaps talk about translating values (from B&W or grisaille) into appropriate colours, I mean achieving the proper values with the colours.
Hello, thank you for such kind words, means a lot that you like what I’m doing 🎨and my hubby too! 🎥I have noted your suggestions and will think about how to put them into a video. With best wishes Clare ps thanks for subscribing!!
Hello Clare, I really like the way you delicately apply your paint. With these different greens, you have represented the depth of the landscape well. Moreover, we fully understand that these are sheep. Cheer ! Thanks for sharing your work.
Hello Jacqueline! Thank you for your kind words and understanding!😊♥️
Le mie tele "pittura impressionismo" vengono scambiati per fotografie.Complimenti per la tua arte.Saluti Italia.
Hello Italia! Thank you Filomena! 😊
England is a paradise for landscape painters.
You are so correct Miguel! 😊♥️
Like all the play by play including the color.....
Thank you very much Pedro! 😊
Excellent instructions and colour, tonal values, very enjoyable watch.
Glad you enjoyed it Paul and it was helpful! 😊
Beautiful painting - love watching you at work!
Thank you so much Amanda😀
Thanks Clare and Nick. Great painting Clare. Turned out much better than I thought it would. You've got a good eye.
Hello Richard! You are very kind, thank you! ♥️
Wonderful work, absolutely inspirational. I am in awe at the passion you put into your art. More color mixing for me please, !
Thank you so much Mona! 👩🏻🎨😊❤️
wonderful job with the distant fields 😀
Thank you fuzzydragons, pleased you thought so! ♥️
Lovely as always and great tips!
Thanks so much! 😊
Love how you capture the distant hills. That's very hard for me.
Thank you , Connie. 🎨♥️
Love watching you paint and your explaining what you’re doing is so helpful. Thank you!
You are so welcome Jill!❤️
This was lovely
Thank you very much Kim! 😊
Clare, Lovely painting with so much depth. Your tones used in the distance are very beautiful.
By the way pass along my compliments to Nick for his filming. Your videos are the best filmed that I’ve seen including showing wide and close ups shots of the scene that give a real sense and feel of the subject. He manages clear shots of the canvas with smooth zooming in to areas you are working on or discussing.
Thank you Emily! I have read out your kind words to Nick and he is so pleased that you enjoyed the filming 🙏😊📽Thank you!
Thank you for another great tutorial. I love the way you explain the color used for the mixing, how you explained the elements of the composition when you discarded the first one, and how you also explain how light or dark the colors should be on the painting, and how you adjust. Loved your sheep too! Loli
Thank you for your kind words, Maria-Dolores! Pleased it is helpful! The sheep are important!!😊♥️
Hello again Clare and Hubby,
It is wonderful to see another brilliantly chosen landscape scene. This is very serene and tranquil scenery inclusive of sheep. I am really loving the whole process of this landscape and am pleased to see you attempt to include some sheep, which cleverly adds to the beauty of this wonderful painting. The fact that the weather is superb to, helps to reinforce the lights and darks. Also helps with production of a great tutorial video. Your Plien Air skills are amazing to watch. Thank you both for taking me through this lovely and enjoyable landscape scenery. Wishing you both well. And Until next time, take care.
Hello Paul, thank you for your observations and kind words. So pleased you are enjoying our work! 📽🎨
Great demo. Thank you for info on your selection for colour mixing. Yes please do more.
Thank you! Will do! ♥️🎨
Loved your video. Very entertaining also with your husband adding to your commentary.
Glad you enjoyed Dale! 📽😍
Gorgeous scenery. Love the way you captured it in this painting. Learning a lot from your color mixing explanations too.
Thank you so much 😀 Pleased it helps! 🎨
I absolutely loved this one! Very nice! I watched it to the end! Thank you! I learned so much!
So pleased it was helpful Julie! 😊🎨♥️
Thank you for sharing the version that didn’t work and discussing why, it really helps to see what doesn’t work and how you rectify it. Great video as always!
Glad it was helpful! Thank you Kieran! 😊🎨
Love hearing your painting process. I have already learned so much from watching your channel. Most of all I love the interaction between you and your (obviously) adoring hubby. You are so real and I love that. 😍🥰
I'm so glad the process has been helpful! And thank you for your kind words! ♥️😊
Wonderful day, wonderful painting, I think you captured the clouds to awesome effect 😍👍
Kind of you to say so Steven! Thank you!😊
Great demo. Thank you. And it's nice to have the energy of the 2 of you working together on the vid project. Thumbs up and subscribed.

You are very welcome! Please you enjoyed 😊
Merci bien 🌹🎨🍀
My pleasure Irina!♥️😊
Hi Clare another well-thought-out painting well done best wishes Ken and Christine xxx
Hello Ken and Christine! Thank you! ♥️😊
Me encanta, muy bonito
Thank you! 😍
Clare, this painting is an absolutely lovely success...every bit as lovely as the weather cooperating for you, enabling such a beautiful result. Everything started to come together beautifully when you first put the clouds in. I kept hoping you would paint the sheep and not worry about them performing on cue. Yes, there is so much in the real life scene you have selected. I thought the only way you could do it justice was if you went home and brought back a much, much larger canvas: but, I was wrong. You have truly achieved the impossible in what seemed to be such a calm, effortless process. I LOVE this PAINTING! It is idealyc; you have captured a soul soothing moment in time, that was an heavenly experience discovered right here on earth. Now that I know for sure where to find an afternoon of gloriously warm and breezy pastoral beauty I will have to save up to come to the U.K. for a visit and hope for an opportunity to purchase this painting... or one like it. CLARE BOWEN, you are a very talented artist. I hope your Queen comes to your next exhibit. Once she has the chance to enjoy your paintings in person, the only difficulty in her purchasing will come when she tries to decide which paintings she likes best :-) I am sure she will agree with me: you are one of Britain's National Treasures. Your lovely works of art would feel at home in her home, and in one or two of England's most loved Museums. 💖🥰🙋♀️
Dear Anita, wow I feel overwhelmed by your wonderful comment! I really appreciate your kind words. Funny you should say about a bigger canvas next time I want to do a big painting of that scene it would be fun. But I’m pleased you think the small one worked too! Sending best wishes to you, Clare
Love it! I can’t tell you how many times I’ve picked the wrong size canvas and tried to make it work. I like that you just started over with a different size canvas.
The reality of a painter’s life en plein air! 😊
Excellent presentation - love how you explained what colours you are using...Great that you hubby asked questions....
Glad it was helpful, Ron! 📽😊
You are a very skillful painter. Great job. Thanks from Denmark!
Thank you Johnny! 😊
Absolutely love your work Clare. You have inspired me to pick up my brush after such a long break!!
Go for it Helene! 😊🎨
Very enjoyable and informative Clare. Thank you both for taking the time and trouble to make the video.🙂
Thank you Oliver! 📽📽📽Pleased you enjoyed it!
It's such a beautiful landscape. Your bright smile resembles the earth. The detailed explanation is very impressive, showing a good picture. I hope you are always healthy and happy broadcasting with pictures.
Thank you so much for your good wishes!😊♥️🙏
wow , that distance looks real / amazing.. ♥
It really is! Thank you Aman! 😊
Nice!
Thanks Hector! ❤️
The sheep were sheepish about being captured on your painting. Lovely painting, will have to catch up with you, I've only been watching for a week or so. Subscribed and Liked!
Thanks so much Lorelei, Glad you have subscribed!,😊👏♥️
looks like you've had a well deserved clean-up. Hi Nick.
Hubby says “Hi” Richard 😊
Beautiful! Love this!
Thank you Sally! ♥️
Thankyou for another excellent piece, I really appreciate your generosity in sharing this with us. I wonder if you have ever considered doing your under painting with acrylics
Ken Russell
Hi Jon thank you! I haven’t because I generally like the wet into wet you get with oils. But I know some artists do like acrylics as an underpainting. Best, Clare
Hi Claire, omg, this beautiful landscape seems SO difficult!
Hi milu rosas. No landscape is really easy and yes, this one was particularly difficult! 👩🏻🎨😊
Tell us about that tray in which you have your paints set up in. Thank you for a wonderful tutorial. You make it look so easy
Hi Pat! It is called a Palette Garage from America!
Thank you, Clare. Yes, please give more color mixing demos. very helpful. And will you please tell me what are the remaining colors on your palette to the RIGHT of Kingsblue Deep and Ultramarine Blue - Thank you.
Hi Lolita we will keep doing the colour mixing in our videos. Best wishes Clare
👏👏🙏🙏❤❤
Thank you! 👏🙏♥️
Wonderful again Clare thank you…love the sound of your canvas what is it please?
Not a canvas Denise - a mfd board 😊
C’est très beu 🌸
Thank you! ♥️😊
I loved your red sailboats on the beach painting. But all the audio was muddied and couldn’t hear your explanations or adorable banter between you two. New mikes sound clear and natural. I love watching you paint. I learn from watching.
Yes, the new mikes are great! Thank you Marti! 🎨😊♥️
"yellowy, greeny, bluey". Yep.
Technical speak!! 😁🎨
Great to watch as always. I'd really like a list of all your colours on the palette, please.
Hi Pamela
My colours are:
Titanium, warm white, Naples yellow light and regular, lemon yellow, cad yellow, scarlet lake, permanent rose, cerulean cobalt, kings blue deep, ultramarine, burnt Sienna, yellow ochre oxide, raw umber hope this is helpful! 🎨
Yes please do more colour mixing 🙏🏽
Will do!! Bianca! 🎨
멋진 작품입니다!
나도 밖에 나가서 그려보고 싶어요!
Thank you Yoon! Just do it!!😀🎨
Is your palette a piece of glass? How do you clean it after each painting please? Thank you so much for these videos - I love watching you paint 😊
Hi Wendy! My en plein air palette is plexiglass or another word for it, clear acrylic sheet. In my studio my palette is glass. They both get cleaned after each painting g!👩🏻🎨🎨❤️
Tutorial top. Brasil
Many thanks! 😊♥️
Love the color mixing-very helpful. Also add brush size and shape? Thanks!
Thank you Fran, I will try and remember to say the size and shape too! 😁👍
I really like how you describe what you are doing, how you mix the paints to get different colors. However, I would appreciate it if there was a lot more close ups of you actually painting because the angles make it hard to see you painting. Otherwise, I love it!
Hi Jauhara you have a good point. I have talked to my husband Nick - the cameraman and he will do close ups on the new videos. Thank you 🙏 Clare
Lovely, thank you, i would like to have a zoom on the compodition, still a big problem for beginners like me.
Hi Raluca, it is a big scene, I would use a view finder and make the scene smaller. Happy painting 🎨😊
Hi, found your video today enjoyed watching you play around with colour balance and colour mixing was great. I was wondering if you could comment about your set up .. I'm doing some research on easels / pochard boxes etc. Be interesting to hear how you made your choice on set ups.
Hi Rai, thank you for watching I’m pleased you enjoyed it! If you look back on my videos I did one explaining how I set up my pochard and what I’ve added to it. Called an open box m 11x14”. And Manfrotto befree tripod. Hope that helps. Best, Clare
@@ClareBowenArtist Thank you ..I will check that out .. look forward to more of your videos
Love your process! Thanks for sharing! What is the maker of the Kings Blue? And what is the name of the tray that holds your pInt?
Thank you Janet, happy to share! I use Jacksons Kings Blue and the paint holder is called a Palette Garage by Great Art Tools an American company! 🎨❤️
I’m trying to catch your whole palette of colors…love your video; especially your “mistake”…the reasoning and the fix.
Hi Linda my colours on my palette are:
Titanium, warm white, Naples yellow light and regular, lemon yellow, cad yellow, scarlet lake, permanent rose, cerulean cobalt, kings blue deep, ultramarine, burnt Sienna, yellow ochre oxide, raw umber hope this is helpful! 🎨
Hello, I bought one of those paint garage after seeing you use one and have not had a chance to use it. Is that all the paint you take with you to paint plein air? Or do you have tubes in your kit? I really like your description of the scene and that your husband makes comments too.
well thank you Thomas!😊
Shall I send you some sheep from NSW? No problem, just say how many.
Dear Gerda, thank you for your kind offer😃!!!
Just suggestion. At the end of the video, you should zoom at the whole painting for a few seconds.
Thank you Adam! Yes your suggestion has been previously suggested! We will endeavour to do this in the future! 👏😊
Could you please write me (also in English) the name of the colors you used for this wonderful painting?
thank you
federico
Hi Federico, if you go on to this video in the explanation below it has a list of my colours used, I dont change them very often they are the same as the landscape!ua-cam.com/video/8MPeL79_skQ/v-deo.html
What type of panel and paint did you use? Please and thank you .
Hi Allen I use mdf panel with 3 layers of acrylic gesso. And a mixture of winsor and newton, jackson’s art & Michael Harding paint. 🎨
Hi my friend. Thanks for the great video you shared with us. very interesting really great vidpaieo thanks for sharing it. please keep in touch, 💖 .,, 💖. ., 💖.,., 💖., ..,
Thank you very much Alin! 🎨👩🎨
Another nice painting and video. Thank you! Just curious how long it took to paint this?
Thank you Jason! The second one took about 2 hours 😊
Do you take the painting into the studio for working on the details? You missed the shadow under the left tree where the sheets are.
Hi Klaas I try to finish it as much as possible on location. It may not be obvious on the video but the tree in below a slope so you can’t see the base or shadow. Thanks, Clare
More colour mixing please.🙋♀️
More to come! Thank you Kay! ♥️😊
Love your work and your teaching …. Have you a link to buy the Pochade ?
Thank you Sally - I’m not connected or endorse the Open Box m pochade. If you type in their name into Google you should find them. Please note those coms and sending out are known to be v slow. Best Clare
Hi
Is there a reason not having green on your palette?
I now have viridian on my palette otherwise I like the mixes from Ultramarine and Cad Yellow I achieve!💙💚❤️💛
@@ClareBowenArtist thank you 😊
Great presentation, thankyou. Could you do same in watercolour?
Thank you Paul! I haven’t used water colours for a long time and my experience and knowledge is sketchy. Sorry! 🙃
@@ClareBowenArtist fully understand. I think you could develop a very successful channel just with watercolour. There are a lots and lots of people like me that have read the books, watched UA-cam and still struggle to advance. You could bring us along in your wake whilst advancing yourself. Better than a know all 😂😊
Please explain what you meant by, "too deep for the scene"...I'm not comprehending what you mean.
Hello, I’m sorry I don’t know which bit that is in the video?
Ciao, mi chiamo Federico e ti seguo sempre, purtroppo non conosco l’inglese, sono Italiano.
Mi scrivi per piacere i colori c’è hai descritto nel filmato? Anche in inglese.
Grazie
Hello Federico, I have replied hope that helps! Clare
hi.More details about the outdoor paint box.thank you
Hi Michael it’s called an Open Box m from the USA. Mine is an 11x14”. I did a video on my channel on how to send it up and the extras I’ve added to it. Take a look! Best, Clare
Perché non traduci il tuo video anche in italiano?
I will look into how to do this! :-)
i cant speak sheep
Baaaaa! 🐑 😁
