You know... I never really thought about these things intentionally, any time I paint a background or landscape, I do these naturally. Most of my intentionally thinking focuses on the colours Im using.
teaching is weird for that! you have to try to break it into a followable system, but it is helpful learning the system for me in trying to teach it because then I'm able to use the concepts more consciously then i think!
Ah I'm so happy you posted Robin! Most other Americans post when its midnight where I am, but I'm always able to watch your videos around evening, which is great. Haven't done much art in a week (because of online school) , but now I think I'll make something. Still too scared to try out oil paints though, so I'll stick to my loyal water colors.
Just getting into watercolor, landscape painting is my ambition. I live in Iceland, so enough great scenery around! "How on earth am I going to pull this off" is a recurring lament😉. These are great tips, and I am also an admirer of Andrew Tischler. Really like your painting btw. Thanks!
Hi Robin! My biggest AHA moment was a few months ago when one of the artists I follow said that things farther away are lighter and things closer are darker. WHOOPS! I had that backwards! Still working on it, but it improved my work absolute BUNCHES! Working back to front and color blocking were a couple of the things I learned early on. I also saw you dividing your canvas into background, midground, and foreground. Something else that really improved my art. Neat trick with the painter's tape to make a steep bluff! I need to try that! Thanks! HUGZ!
This video came at the perfect time!!! I'm starting my a-level coursework and my chosen topic is landscape viewpoints inspired by my local area but I don't have much experience drawing or painting them. Thank you so much for this!! I'm sure these tips will improve my work which will in turn improve my grade (fingers crossed for an A!)
You are one of the sweetest persons I've ever found on the internet. And you're so funny and talented, and cute; feeling like if I was in love. You're a great artist and tutor, even though I'm not an English speaking man I can easily understand what you say. Keep up the great work! You really inspire me to start to paint. So I'm definitely following you in your social media :)
Robin - Landscape paintings have never been my 'thing' - until yours! I love watching and hearing about your techniques and inspirations too. I'd love to see some kind of collab video with you and another artist.
Thank you for making this video, Robin. I watch many tutorials, probably way too many but don't often take notes or reflect enough on what's being taught. You have a great way with words and it's fantastic to hear your thoughts on Andrew Tischler's tips! Your painting is stunning! Advice that I got from an excellent landscape painter once, who's work I got to admire at an art faire, was to always mix a bit of white in every tone to soften the colours - not only in the background. Even the shadows should have a little white in them. I feel like you did that, too?
@@RobinSealark your last video was 5 months ago is there a video coming soon or is something happening in your life currently you don’t have to respond but I would love if you could
I enjoy watching your videos, I am so impressed by your continuing desire to learn and share your experiences! I have taken the challenge of learning soft pastels and much of what you presented in this video can be applied to that process and is equally valid! Thank you for sharing Robin! You are truly a lovely person and a joy to watch!
I’m staying across the country where I keep seeing gorgeous views. I’ve been thinking, “I would love to start landscape painting!” I’ve been following your channel for years and never really tried it - this video came at the perfect time!!!
Awesome tips Robin!! I love doing landscapes and really working towards more photorealism type paintings, yet still do fantasy paintings, because we all need to escape into some sort of dimension so once in a while...
your videos don't necessarily give me new information, these are all things I already *know* but listening to you talk about these things while watching you demonstrate what you're talking about just makes me realize how I go wrong in my art when I think I'm doing everything right.
You are so cute and sweet. A breath of fresh air in this time of such meanness, hatred and vitriol. I need more people like you in my life to start restoring my faith in humanity. Keep up the great work
All of these tips were super useful! I’m certainly an amateur painter, if I can be counted as a painter at all- so I will definitely use these tips in the future!
Honestly perfect timing on this video! My summerly ritual is landscape paintings and this video gave me a lot of insights to consider on my next piece!
notes 1. [edit] work back to front. this allows you to block in perspectives from the start 2. begin with low details i.e. colour, value and shapes 3. create muted perspectives: use subtle colour development for the background to avoid blowing up your depth 4. save your tonal range ie darkest darks and lightest lights to the foreground to create detail (defined edges, colour saturation n contrast) 5. find balance between realism and your art style
You’re such a darling 😄 I don’t paint. But I enjoy watching you paint. But this video is actually helping me better understand how to better use Photoshop. Awesome!!
I’m so surprised that i learned a lot of these concepts in a beginning drawing college course but not in my intro to painting at a bigger university?? As terrible as my drawing professor was generally, I’m so glad to have learned about things like atmospheric perspective- game changing!
not often! but i'm curious to try again now that i've learned more about painting in general. I want to paint my roommate cat. maybe ill do it in a video one day so i can finish this personal collaged painting i'm working on.
Hey Robin! Cute video. I found you in a YT search for "landscape artist technique". My media of choice at the moment is colored pencil on paper, but these tips you shared apply universally. Just needed the reminder, which you presented very nicely. Looking forward to more of your channel. Bright blessings.
I watch both your videos and Andrew Tischler's, so seeing this was great! If you've found Andrew Tischler's videos interesting, then Samual Earp is another landscape artist here on UA-cam that you might like. He takes a slightly different approach than Andrew Tischler, but I've still found his videos to be interesting and helpful
very beautiful vibrant painting that one! makes one want to paint landscapes! ...the block-in-to-details method is surprisingly efficient (with portraits too). suddenly the subject "jumps on you". the faint-to-saturated or the midtones-to-highlights(stark shadows) are a great analogy to that, to keep in mind. ok, gotta paint something very modern and spiritual, pshhht, hahhhah
can you explain how you actually used the tracing paper on your painting? was there something on the back that was pressed to the canvas on with the pencil..? maybe you could make a video on ways you use tracing paper. thank you for the tips.
You couldn't want for a better mentor than Andrew Tischler. He is amazing! It's also worth having a look at Samuel Earp's UA-cam channel. He and Tischler do plein air painting together and have similar styles and perspectives though Earp is a bit looser.
Stockholum Central Staytion-Noruway toning the panel means using a very thinned out layer of paint (oftentimes burnt umber or burnt sienna) on your painting surface and letting it dry before beginning your painting. Why? Because painting on white means all your paint is making the painting *darker* from the white of the canvas. But there are a lot of optical illusions that happen when you place colors next to white (or on a white canvas). One illusion is that all your colors look darker than they will actually appear when you get rid of all the white (“knocking out the white”). So you get rid of it by immediately knocking out the white and replacing it with a middle value (mid tone), and you can work darker or lighter from the mid tone in your painting. Also, because paints are transparent or mixable, some painters enjoy the warm glow that emanates from the toned canvas through the layers on top. Painting on a white canvas can make your colors more brilliant, but painting on top of a burnt sienna toned canvas tends to be more realistic, approximating the glow from sunlight.
So here I am struggling through a landscape. Looking up videos of yours and other artists trying to find advice. I could have just checked my subscription page.
To the final point: As abstract as I can go, without entirely losing the "subject." I do think learning hyper realism [or at least realism] allows for painterly - in your own work - to be more approachable.

Those landscapes are beautiful!
lol I love the name :)))))
Gosh your artwork is just so incredible!
Your landscapes always remind me of the fantastical sceneries in Ghibli Movies. It's stunning!

Haven't done much art in a week (because of online school) , but now I think I'll make something.
Still too scared to try out oil paints though, so I'll stick to my loyal water colors.
Robin looks like a faerie to me
oo!
If someone pointed a gun at me and asked me to draw a landscape
tell my family i love them
No i wont because i know you will do good
😂😂
+ art supplies
+ a landscape
+ a family

I know this is gonna sound weird and random but I miss you and watching your videos a lot Robin😂
There was a time I was so obsessed with her videos I binged them at once 👁👄👁
aw I cant wait to get back to videos reading comments like this.
@@RobinSealark your last video was 5 months ago is there a video coming soon or is something happening in your life currently you don’t have to respond but I would love if you could
Andrew is a master at Hyperrealism painting! His work and your's always inspire me to be better!
Love how much you talk with your hands. I’m the same way
Robin, how I missed you! Thanks for coming back.

Great tutorial video... thank you for the tips💙💙💙😎👍🖼🖌🎨
i dont even paint landscapes yet in my journey but i love Andrews videos because theres solid wisdom in it for all of painting
Keep up the good work! Informative and a good summary.
Im in love with her style, I aspire to paint like this!
Awesome tips Robin!! I love doing landscapes and really working towards more photorealism type paintings, yet still do fantasy paintings, because we all need to escape into some sort of dimension so once in a while...
Very beautiful landscapes!
i love u so much. your art, your personality, Hoodie. i love it all. i recently got into acrylic paint, and you're my biggest inspiration 🤍

HECK YA!!!! DO IT KEEP DOIN IT X)
Your paintings are always so gorgeous! I thank you for the lovely tips!
Omg yesterday I was struggling and was looking for a video how to improve landscapes and I see this!!!! 😊
Haha, another Tischler fan :D I litterally devoured his channel and learned so much :D
notes

@@Frostfern94 yeah. thanks :)
When i need some motivation to go back again in doing painting and you uploaded this videooo! Wahhhhh💜💜💜💜
I love your paintings and your great tips! I've been following Andrew's channel a long time. He is also had really good landscaping tips.
You do such beautiful art!
Beautiful Robin 💖💖💖
hey Robin you are like fine wine! getting better with time! thanks for your tutorials :)
Thanks for sharing the tips and your talent. I love the picture of the hand s. I'm guessing is no longer available for purchase, is it?
I always watch his beautiful New Zealand landscapes!
Not into landscape painting but I love hearing you talk, I hope this didnt sound creepy lol
Hi!! Great video! What kind of panels do you use?
You’re such a darling 😄
I don’t paint. But I enjoy watching you paint. But this video is actually helping me better understand how to better use Photoshop. Awesome!!
Love your personality and your videos keep doing you.. wish nothing but the best 😊

It's so fun watching your videos😁
I love how you use your hands while you talk. Like it's going to help us understand even more these concepts when you draw them in the air 😅
I love Tischler!!!
This was so helpful,thanks Robin ✨💗
keep going you are my best artist i have ever seen
I love Andrew been following him for years
So beautiful
Do you ever paint animals? I’m curious as to how a primarily landscape painter would go about that
not often! but i'm curious to try again now that i've learned more about painting in general. I want to paint my roommate cat. maybe ill do it in a video one day so i can finish this personal collaged painting i'm working on.
So close and cool
Cute and useful 😁 thank you

This is amazing and you are the cutest 😅
Thankyou for making these awesome videos they always inspire me
Beautiful work!
Very nice information , 😊😊😊😊
So nice of you :))
Oh man Andrew has been my fav ever since he started his channel
amazing thanks!
Is this acrylic or oil
from the way she's mixing it on and off canvas, i'd bet on oil!
How long does it usually take you to finish a painting this size
Hi this was very helpful thank you very much I wish I could be like you drawing nice and I loveeeeee your arts and you are sooo funny
This is the first video i saw your face again robin, nice to see you :)
My favorite tips are to start in low detail and to create muted perspective. Starting with basic shapes and then refining them is very helpful.
I watch both your videos and Andrew Tischler's, so seeing this was great!
If you've found Andrew Tischler's videos interesting, then Samual Earp is another landscape artist here on UA-cam that you might like. He takes a slightly different approach than Andrew Tischler, but I've still found his videos to be interesting and helpful

I wish there was no background music 😬
Ooooohhh it looks like the great valley from the Land Before Time!
Thank you for sharing all this wonderful information with us
I got the weirdest sense of deja vu when you came on screen, like I knew someone who looked like you 😅 your finished landscape was beautiful!
Robin, is this using oil or acrylic paint?
I just want to get started
Very helpful
can you explain how you actually used the tracing paper on your painting? was there something on the back that was pressed to the canvas on with the pencil..? maybe you could make a video on ways you use tracing paper. thank you for the tips.
hey, she used pastels! you just scribble on the back then re-draw your lines over top of your paper/panel
Thank you!!
