I love love this one! Your colors are so natural and warm - I’m so afraid to do bc all of the painting and then try to do the birds and mess it up!! I love the birds!!!I also enjoy watching you mix colors and layer them! Keep them coming please!
I really like That you show your colours and how you’re mixing everything. I’ve learned quite a bit about colour mixing just from watching you. I also really like that you explain the reasoning behind why are you mix the way you do. Lastly, consistently across all the videos I’ve watched of yours so far, I really like the colour schemes that you develop from your limited palette. I can’t wait until I can say “oh I’m going to use Prussian blue because I want a cooler sky”. Right now I say I’m going to use Prussian blue because that’s what the UA-cam person used LOL. 👍🏻👏🏻😁
Thank you very much Luna!!! I’ll try and stay consistent in my demos, I’m still trying to be better at UA-cam and finding out what people like to see in the demos. So it’s nice to hear from you and the compliments!! Thank you!
I recently found your channel and I must say...I AM ADDICTED to your tutorials! I love the way you explain each step..your colors...and WHY you’re using them. Thank you for the EXCELLENT instructional videos and your art is AMAZING!❤️
I really like your paintings.. Your very thorough and explain everything you do and why. I’m a longtime watercolor painter, and just recently started painting in water soluble oils. They ARE oil paints, but have been treated so that they clean up with water. I could not fight the constant drying issue of acrylics both on the painting and the palette. I suppose you’ve won that fight. 😃Tallahassee, Florida
Lol, it took practice and you get used to it! Otherwise you can used a retarder gel and a flow medium and mix them together in a 50/50 ratio to keep the acrylic paint wet longer and feel like oils as well !
Loved the painting but how easy he did those birds blowed me away. I will try that .also loved how he did the cabbage tree yep you heard me right it's a cabbage tree
So in other words you start with a form of brown to establish the darks, add local greyed down color, then bring up the chroma in the highlights? I am trying to figure out how to apply this to my paintings. BTW I am stoked I found your channel. Like so many others who have commented, I love your loose style
Spot on Jay!! Yes, I start with dark tones, and my recipe for that is usually ultramarine blue, alizarin crimson, and cad yellow medium. To make a brownish green, and I’ll lay down the major masses of the landscape without worrying about the details at this stage! And yes, tone down the sky, you don’t want high chromas at this point, that’s for the later stages, unless it’s a bright yellow sky, then you might want to start with that and lay down other colors on top. When laying down the sky I’ll start shaping and carving out the large masses. Finally in the final stages I start laying down more accurate colors with a bit more chroma building to highlights. And I’ll do the same to landscape masses!
@@GebahiArtworks How long have you been painting? I have been painting for a couple years now and still struggle with subtle color shifts and random brush strokes
Jay Gruemmer it’s been now 14 years on and off but really started painting in 2015! It’s normal, you struggle initially, I did too, but just kept trying and watching video here and there until it starts coming naturally and you improve on that by experimenting in your own way!
Jay Gruemmer trust me when I say “I understand!!” I was I your shoes! And I’m going to keep on trying to simplify things for you guys as much as I can through various techniques!
Amazing little painting. You make using those detail brushes look much easier than it actually is. Also, beware of answering those 'wanna be friends' type comments. Seems like they may be malicious Bots.
How do you avoid the acrylics drying out on the palette - do you spray them with water from time to time? Or maybe the brand of paint used? (Great atmospheric landscapes, by the way)
Good question, two things you can do! I just mist them from time to time, or you can take a napkin and fold it in quarters, wet it and squeeze the excess off. Then put it on your palette and put the paint on top of it. The paint will stay wet for a good while!! It’s like a wicking system, or you can buy a Masterson Staywet palette!
Love your technique. So impressionistic.
Thank you very much!!!

Great tutorial. Thanks. Enjoy your work. Do you offer a close up tutorial of painting flying Ibis?
Thank you for watching, I don’t currently have one, but I’ll do one for you!!

@@GebahiArtworks Many thanks - yes, noticed you didn't use a stay-wet palette, so thought there must be some other way !
👌👍
I would still do the sky first. ☺
You can!
Love your colors, and style. But why the monotonous music? Its so distracting.
Thank you Sue, my more recent videos have improved in lots of different ways ! But thank you for letting me know.
Beautiful painting and good channel.
Check mine and let me know what you think my friend
Thank you very much!!!
Will do !!
Do you do many large paintings, or do you stick to small ones? You represent Florida well:)
I’m so mainly small one for logistics purposes! But I do larger sizes like 24x35, and 18x24!
