I like the energy in your clouds. It was wonderful how you scrubbed in the fluffy cloud shapes and instantly had that feeling of light. I’m quite envious of the variety of landforms in Cornwall. Here in Lewes, Delaware everything is flat. Very beachy and prone to flooding.
You’re right Eric it is a scrubby sort of mark - trying to mimic and reflect the shape and feel of a cloud. Using the brush with a really light touch. You’ll have to visit Cornwall one day to get to paint these skies too!! 🎨😁
I love the dynamic you and your husband have. So supportive of one another, it’s just lovely to watch. I would love to visit Cornwall one day-it’s a bucket list place! ❤
Hey 👋 there Mr. B. It’s great how you support Clare, filming-and coaching at the same time, keeping spirits up! I know when plein air painting, there is an ebb and flow in emotions, analogous with the tide.
I enjoyed so much to see how you captured that marvelous place that reminded me Mont Saint Michel ! And enjoyed to see how you painted the sky and the clouds in a such beautiful and loose way! Your videos are the most enjoyable way to start the day! Thank you Clare and thank you Mr. B !
Very enjoyable next best thing to being there. I liked your delicate addition of lights to the buildings at the base of the mount., and your clouds are depicted as they were capturing their shape and colours excellent painting.
Hello Clare, happy to see you again this Sunday! This island reminds me of Mont Saint Michel in Normandy, maybe a bit smaller. In any case your painting is very beautiful with these fleeting clouds that you managed to capture from the start. Thank you for sharing and for Mr B's video. Have a great week.
Clare I just watched this … bravo! Beautiful painting!…I love watching you find your way thru the process!…and I look forward to hearing more about your upcoming workshops!
Hi Cheri, I'm so pleased you enjoyed this video and watching my process. I'm excited about our new Plein Air Workshops. We are just setting some dates for them next year. Would you like me to tell you what they are? Best wishes, Clare
You had me from the sky right at the beginning! Hope you don't mind but I had to watch you on one and a half speed as I didn't have enough time. Bit laurel and Hardy bit still very informative and engaging!
Hi Clare, nice to see you working at early hour of the morning, and capturing in a sketchy manner the atmosphere and the landscape. I do have couple of questions : 1. would you refine this at home, soften edges, correct colors ( as you took a reference photo at beginning :) )? 2. Would you copy it to larger scale ? 3. and if you do, would you try to keep the sight size but add more details from your head, or you would just blow up the whole thing. Recently I started not to fiddle with initial sketch anymore, but to blow it up on a larger size fresh canvas, but had to resize the whole thing and not sure this is the idea of painting landscape on big scale). One drawback with painting from scratch is that I start more to look at the initial photo rather than to my initial sketch, and the final picture does not look fresh anymore, but overworked. Thanks for sharing your thoughts
Hello Dorin, thank you for your comment. Here's my reply :-) 1. Sometimes I do refine at home it depends on the subject and painting. I probably wont touch this one as it's a fleeting impression. 2. I do scale up some paintings usually the ones that I'm really happy with / want to explore it more / or the board was too small to do it justice. I choose the ones to blow up. It is a good exercise and the painting can be a lot more impactful bigger! 3.I dont try and keep sight size just scale up to fit the canvas - usually the same format just bigger. It is easy to become a slave to your photo. I try and limit my time and paint it as though it was a plein air - with time limit and no procrastination! I hope this all helps, good luck with your painting, Clare
@@ClareBowenArtist yes, thanks for your comments it does help to understand how others are approaching the landscape out of the infinite way of doing it. Also I see you very keen of doing sun rises (which most of times I also do). Do you focus to paint some other moment of the day ? where probably less color is there, and more cool and strong light ,etc
Hola. Te escribo desde Buenos Aires, Argentina. Me gustaría si podés comentarme como llevas y cuidas los oleos que los sacas en ese carry en L que colocas en tu paleta.Como haces ? Cuanto duran frescos y como la transportas. Gracias.Marcelo
Greetings Marcelo and Buenos Aires! The container is called a Palette Garage purchased from Great Art Tools in America. It helps keep the paints fresh as long as needed and sealed for transportation. 😊
This is a very strange question, but where on your body does the palette level come up to? Also just checking the tripod doesn't have the centre column extended? I'm 5ft 9in and I just ordered U Go's compact tripod and it packs up well nice and compact, but I think it's too low and not keen on really extending the centre column as it affects stability.
Really beautiful place and beautiful painting Clare bowen artist
Many thanks
@@ClareBowenArtist Clare Bowen Artist and How many years of experience do you have in drawing?
Loved this video. It’s a joy to watch you paint and explain what your thought process is to work at your subject. Thanks also to Mr. B.

Adding people certainly adds dimension and a human aspect. It’s great how you captured them.

Hey 👋 there Mr. B.
It’s great how you support Clare, filming-and coaching at the same time, keeping spirits up! I know when plein air painting, there is an ebb and flow in emotions, analogous with the tide.
Mr B says thank you! He is a wonderful support it would be a lot harder without him 💙
Thank you for showing the process. Love it when you talk about the why and how. Also the communication with mister B.
So thanks.
Our pleasure, Dita! Thank you for watching!👏💙
Thanks Clare, really nice painting, glad you are enjoying being home
Thank you Jeff! Away for a week in the US teaching a workshop in November, so not home for long! 😍

so odd to have a vehicle on that tiny causeway, if there were a lot of people they would have to bale down onto the rocks lol
Thank you FD! The Mount does have a ferry boat for excess people!🚤😃❤️
Wow nice painting love the sea and sand and your comedian MR B. the tiny people look good best wishes Ken and Christine xxx

No worries Simon, thank you for watching even at 1.5 speed! 😊📽

Hi Clare can you tell me what type of board you are painting on? Love your videos! Thank you.🙋♀️
Hi Kay, They are MDF 2.5mm smooth both sides boards. I use 3 coats of Acrylic Gesso Primer (Winsor & Newton Professional) Hope that helps! Best, Clare
@@ClareBowenArtist Thank you Clare. 👩🎨x
Looks great
Thanks Barbara!😊♥️

Hi there it’s at bent arm height. Centre column isn’t extended. Hope your works out! 🎨😊
@@ClareBowenArtist Thank you!
Very nice
Thank you!😊❤️
Hi What painting board do you use ?
Hi Denise I use an mdf wood board with 3 coats of acrylic gesso. I’m also lining linen covered boards at the moment too! 😊
