Oil sticks in my Seawhite sketchbook. Great fun!
Like the video? Why not buy me a coffee?

Your layers and textures and mark making, and freedom when you create make my heart sing!😊
Beautiful, thank you for taking us on your oil stick adventure. You're a pleasure to listen to.
Thank you very much!
Love this - a real plein air adventure, having to escape from the tide! It’s so interesting to see your sketching process from start to finish. The end result looks lively, loose and beautiful.
Thank you very much Heather 😃
After watching this video I felt inspired to go out and do some plein air sketching. Thanks for the inspiration 😊
That’s fantastic. Enjoy your creativity
Oh, my... Treacherous graphite sticks, quicksands and the tide is coming in fast! This is a plein air challenge on a whole new level! Guess, the only thing to do to make it even more difficult, would be to paint hanging upside down from a bungee 😂
But on a serious note, absolutely love unruly freedom and expressiveness of your sketches !
Thank you so much Ellen 😃
Fabulous work! And lovely to see daughter and Basil again, thank you all.
Thank you too Frankie
Hey Andrew!
I had a horrible couple of days when it comes to mental things - my head was in the worst place since forever.
It was really, really bad - depressed would be an understatement.
I put on your video, making a playlist with couple of yours recent videos and it helped so much. Can not thank you enough, apart from talent you have an amazing calming presence, similar to Bob Ross.
Thank you so much!
I’m sorry to hear about your bad days.
Very pleased though that my videos have helped you so much.
Hope you can find some calm in a busy, difficult world.
Best wishes to you
Andrew
@@AndrewBarrowmanArt I'm doing much better now, thank you :)!
Much better than an Easter egg hunt!! Given recent weather you did well to withstand wind and waves and create something very special. Credit cards are very good for putting a gesso primer in a board! One of their less dangerous uses!! When i was a Gunwallow Church Cove I found a similar rock easel!
Thank you very much Ian. Glad to have a break in the weather and get out
Love the ‘rough and ready’ approach, mark making works very well and produces a wonderful picture.love your sketches.
Thank you so much 😀
Lovely lively sketch! Thanks for sharing
My pleasure 😊thank you for watching
Hello Andrew. Beautiful painting. You inspire me with every work you make. 🤩
Thank you so much 😀
Hi Andrew ! I saw you on a Sky TV show replay, it was very quick. I saw from afar the landscape that you made with graphite or charcoal. It looked very nice.
Thank you very much Jasmine 😃
Such a lovely painting! I am very tempted by oil sticks for drawing outdoors ...
Thank you. Go for it - they are very messy though 😃
Fantastic! Easter weekend and you found an empty beach, nice 🙂
Thank you. Fortunately the visitors tend to go on the main beach, other side of the river 😃
I learnt something today. Thanks for posting.
Thanks for watching Peter
Entertaining and enjoyable to watch a nice sketch beiing produced while working against an incoming tide. Cheers 😊.
Thank you very much. It was good fun but a bit rushed
I am really impressed with your result. I had no idea such a clumsy medium could yield a nice little painting. Cheers from the desert.
Thank you very much Dan
Nice colour, nice drawing. Great to see.
Thank you so much 😀
Great sketch!! Hi Basil!! Cookie is watching 😊
Thank you so much Barbara and Cookie
Ain't it nice of Mother Nature to provide you a working table😉 on the channel of Sennelier there's a demo from the Artist Director Ives Marie Salanson painting a Seascape on a large canvas with Oil Sticks and He gets pretty messy too. Anyway, happy Easter to you and your loved ones...and of course Basil 🐰
I will check it out. Thank you for the recommendation. Happy Easter to you too Mike 😃
Good fun.....and make a mess my motto.....nice sketch ....I use big sennelier as well keeps me from getting too precious with my sketches
Definitely a good motto Daniel 😃
Beautiful 😊👍
Thank you so much 😊
you make it look easy - I got some oil sticks and am trying what you are doing - it is fun but not near as good as yours so I will practice more because its out in nature and fun.
Thank you. Don’t go too thick too soon. Apply it lightly and layer up gradually. That would be my advice 👍🏻
Lovely sketch, do you use a fixative spray or an alternative when you finish?
Thank you Emy. No I don’t fix these sketches
Needed yellow (green) on rocks and more yellow white on sand and more graphite stick scribbly mark making according to Basil and he's boss. 🙂
Otherwise looks good.
👍
I should listen to Basil more often 😃
Nice one Andrew, it's a shame painting in that new coat :-)
Tell me about it - got oil sticks on the sleeves 😂
Thank you Andrew for another wonderful scene. I particularly liked your comment about oil sticks not allowing you to get too fussy rendering the subject. Maybe they help preserve the vitality of the experience.
Thank you Gary. I love the spontaneity you can achieve quickly with oil sticks 👍🏻
It's Basil! (Ever fear the Bazzer gets as much affectionate attention as you do? But, he can't paint; so far as we know.... you'll be in real trouble if he proves he can!)
By the way - Sky Landscape Artist of the Year - you WERE robbed; nor am I the only one who thinks so.
Thank you very much Robert for your support my friend. Basil is always the star. He’s regaining his strength after a bad ear infection sidelined him for while.
All the best
