CITYSCAPE plein air OIL PAINTING san francisco

[@alina333]

I has a painting session outside for the first time this week. It’s harder than I thought but also so much fun. Makes me appreciate the work you do so much more !

[@george-st-george]

Excellent video and a Beautiful painting too !!!!! Thanks for this !

" The Composition really is this dark/ light relationship. And as long as I have an interesting light/ dark pattern, the painting should work out."
- Michael Chamberlain
If I can get this, to the level that its instinctively how I see, I sense my painting will be so much more powerful.
I had thought I needed to learn about Light and was hyper-focused on that; suddenly had that hit me that it is values, that explains light to the eye.
Thanks for another fantastic share! Appreciate your generosity with what you've learned and your painting process.

Appreciate your sharing so much.
I always look forward to the Sunday video!

[@constancearnold9367]

Really nice painting. You have the ability to take a fairly ho-hum scene and transform it into a scene of dynamism and interest a appeal! This is super appealing to me! Thanks!

[@ThomasFisherArt]

One of your best paintings. And a great narrated video!

[@lenamccubbin1068]

Not only are your videos enjoyable to watch but you make good use of the time. Many Other youtubes waste a lot of time in introductions or poorly organized. I always know yours will be concise, yet complete.

[@chamberlainpaintings]

Thanks!

‘’ Foreground right , A Crimson Queen beckons to the viewer ‘’ find my heart in the future city beyond ‘’. Viewers adventure into, exploring , drawn by complexity they heed the words, and , some do find ‘’ . Michael, this Beautiful Painting speaks ! This Masterpiece is for the Gallery 🏆.

Really love this painting! Great video.

[@josephtermeer5196]

Bravo maestro! I'm practicing buildings now, I want to follow your steps because I think the bay area and west coast, USA, is one of the best places in the world to capture big city oceanic atmosphere. 😊

[@andyhornberger758]

Love the painting!

[@barnabyaprobert5159]

I wish that I had your relentless energy when painting!

[@sjrl1999]

[@ludwigcopenhagen8842]

Really nice painting.

[@joanholmes3382]

I really liked the end result of this picture. I expected just another street scene and was delighted this one was different with great colours and atmosphere.

[@ericmaletsky8534]

Another fantastic urban landscape - thank you 👏👏

[@atcassidy1]

Fantastic painting Michael, love the shadows and the car highlights.

You are so confident and make it look easy to paint this scene on site. Your comments are helpful and I appreciate your sharing your painting process. It's very inspiring and I agree with others that love this painting.

[@maggiepleinair]

Soooo good. I love the colours in the buildings on the left.

[@jamesmeyers6603]

Your urban landscapes are the best.

[@chuckjohnston8855]

[@HaileyHanks]

Hey Michael, I love everything about it! That plum tree color is specifically beautiful 😊

[@chamberlainpaintings]

Thanks Hailey!

[@donleblanc7223]

I love the direction you are going. The composition makes a very powerful painting. Congrats Mike.

[@jamesmeyer1325]

This one is definitely a keeper. Nice simple design.

[@angelomariano9494]

Impressive! Considering that was done plein air, double impressive!

[@amandagleason8641]

It’s superb- I love it!

[@donaldjohnson6335]

Awesome painting with valuable tips! Is it possible to show longer video versions for Patreon subscribers? I would enjoy added segment portions that have no on-site narration or have voice over.

[@Dertypaws]

Really strong painting congrats

You make something aesthetic and elevated out of something banal and uninspiring.

Good Morning Michael 😎

[@chamberlainpaintings]

Good morning Mark!

[@Susancarolart]

I have been following you for over a year. I enjoyed watching you grow. Please keep it up. I particularly like the city scapes. I have a question, how do you video yourself in the field? Is someone filming for you, or do you have a tripod set up? Susan

[@chamberlainpaintings]

I film myself. I use a tripod for some shots but the for most I've got a brush in one hand and the camera in the other.

[@ancaizcreativopintor6499]

Muy bien, genial artes un10 porque me encanta ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

[@chamberlainpaintings]

Gracias!

[@markparkey1218]

Michael , 12:46 , Everybody loves this ❤️

[@DiscipleofJesus312]

Wow, amazing painting! For the scrub in phase do you thin out the paint with gamsol or liquin or anything else? What easel do you use?

[@chamberlainpaintings]

Thanks! I'm thinning with Liquin in the beginning. I'm using an easel from takeiteasel.com

[@richgilroy]

looks great! Question - how do you achieve the scratchy look to your shadow block in? Are you using any medium or thinners at all? Whenever I attempt it, it just creates a wash, almost watercolour look rather than scratchy.
thanks for the inspiration - ive learned more from your channel than any other!

[@chamberlainpaintings]

Thanks! Yes, I'm using Liquin from Winsor & Newton. The natural bristle brush helps create the scratchy look as well.

[@henriquejanuario881]

Thanks for the class! Do you ever did plein air painting with gouache? what is the diference with do with oil? Thanks for any help!

[@chamberlainpaintings]

I've never tried gouache!

[@suzbart2084]

Is this over the Broadway tunnel?

[@chamberlainpaintings]

No it's from Francisco and Leavenworth
