The paintings of Stefan Baumann reveal the true spirit of nature by transporting the viewer to distant lands that have gone unseen and undisturbed. With the huge success of Baumann’s weekly PBS television series “The Grand View: America’s National Parks through the Eyes of an Artist,” millions of people witness for themselves the magic Stefan portrays on canvas, his passion for nature and the American landscape. By distilling his love of nature into a luminous painting of brilliant, saturated color that transcends conventional landscape and wildlife art, Baumann has captured the hearts and imaginations of a generation. Each painting becomes an experience rather than merely a picture - a vivid manifestation of his special and personal union with nature and the outdoor world. Through his mastery of light, color and artful composition, Baumann invites you to experience nature in its purity. It is no wonder that for many years distinguished American collectors, including former presidents and financial icons, have sought out his work.
This guy is one of the most wonderful teacher I hv ever seen on the internet! Wow.
Stefan...you are the focal point ... you are the light x
Your amazing
I’ve watched this video numerous times and learn something else every time.
I am a little old lady from Oklahoma that love you, your teaching and your work. Looking forward to all you have to give. Keep up the good work You are a blessing to the art community.
You absolutely right ,knowledge is very important,love your show
Timeless teacher … 💕
what a wonderful instructor no gimmicks so practical thanks .
Ok Stefan. I know your used to great compliments. But i need you to know something.
Im an Aussie wildlife painter from Northern Territory.
Since suffering RSI...from water colour pencil use. I decided to learn to paint in oils.
Ive tried to learn a new way to paint.....but in two weeks of watching your you tube channel ive remembered that I want to paint because the view of our earth is so beautiful. The way the sun loghts up a field and lights up the sky. Thank you!
Your so welcome
Waiting for this for a year so badly. Finally got to see you painting again. Thanks to Eric Rhodes for keeping it together.
Enjoyed watching Stephan painting and learning so much. Going tomorrow for my first time plein air adventure.
Wonderful!
Stefan, I 🤍 your art and voice. great videos 😊
Love the lighting effects you achieve and the ease with which you do. I can tell you’re very comfortable with this!! The painting feels soft yet powerful. I love having you as a coach, always new things to pick up!!
Thanks for the kind words, I'm proud of you as a student
I love using my fingers, it is so comfortable. When I saw you do it, I said to myself, hum, he doesn't mind about the paint, and then he mention turpentine and wiping his brush on a cloth. Man I ran to wash my hand when I got the turpentine on my hand when I was cleaning my brush. He just made my day. You are not going to die. Thanks.
Stephan is an amazing artist, love watching and listening to him. I have learned so much.
Learning a lot from Stefen B.
Wow! This was amazing. I've seen lots of your youtube vids where you're talking about painting to students in class and discussing their paintings, but this is the first time I've seen you paint. The ease and facility with which you construct this painting and bring it to life in such a short time is mind-blowing. Thanks so much for sharing this. :)
Never been this early to a video! Great to see a new upload
I just posted it an hour ago
I love the way Stefan teachers. He has a way with words that makes a person understand instead of guessing... 🖤🖤🖤 Love you Drama Queen lol
I am glad that you are still doing videos even during the covid crisis
wait till May I going to launch a new series of demo on a video called The Baumann Effect
I love following you. Thank you so much!
At last a painting demo!!! It really adds a lot to your words of wisdom. Thanks for sharing this.
That's knowledge watching a 40-year artist. Thank you so much
THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU I m learning so o o much !
Steven Lyman use to love to paint that area before he fell to his death in Yosemite. I loved his work. I love to see the passion you have for nature and that area..
Stephen, thank you for sharing. I love watching and listening to you. I usually learn about something when I turn in to you. Stay well.🤗 From Upstate New York.
Fantastic Stefan, you are so gifted. God bless you.
Brilliant! Thank you. Love it.
Thank you and all the best.
A true master of light. I always learn something new. Thank you Stefan. 🙏
Glad you enjoyed it
Sooo excited to watch you paint again.
Good to see you still making videos and such✌🏽, been watching you for long time.
I use acrylics, which can be worked as (same effect) oils or watercolour. I even add the watercolour paint to them sometimes. Thanks for your expert tuition.
A wonderful painter. Just a pleasure to watch your creation process. Your explanation is easy to follow.
Ah! A new color to check out: Asphaltum. Surprisingly I can only find it in craft paint for acrylics, which is what I paint with. Not that I need another color or tube of paint! Love this video. Please bring us more!
Asphaltum.. I cannot live without it. A very beautiful transparent color that does every thing including mixes as Burnt Umber does.
Give me tubes of asphaltum, Cremnitz white, cobalt blue, quinacridome Magenta or Rose, and cad Lemon and I will be able to block in, set values as well as temperature and work halfway through modeling.
My work actually comes together more harmoniously than when I had 10 - 12 colors out to start with.
Richeson Asphaltum.
Code word "Mummy"
Thanks, Sensei Stefan
I am really digging that cabinet/drawers/whatever set of things at the back and to the right, please do a studio tour at some point. Love looking at artist spaces and how they organize their tools + utilize the space.
Tried to catch a plein aire class with you last year, but.. Covid changed /canceled the dates. It was great to actually watch you on the board! I learned a lot watching and listening. Thank you so much!
Absolutrly amazing
“Usual I don’t even paint ... my painting painted it self... “ 😂
Sir,great job,like your work!
One of the best teacher on UA-cam!!!!!!!!!!!
Glad to see you again!You are very much missed.
Man, your paintings are so nice. I especially like your portraits. Please. please do more of these, like full paintings. Just a humble fly on the wall.
Thank you for sharing your technical experience
I will cherish this. Thank you!
It’s so beautiful to see your art work.
You inspire me
Greetings from San Diego. I can watch you paint all day! You are a great teacher. I’ve learned a lot from you. Thank you 🙏🏻
You look so good! The painting is amazing and you are so right on about the light!
This was such a treat to watch you paint! Thank you very much
You make it look so easy! I've learned quite a bit here - especially about light and focal points and horizon.
I think I'm going to love oil!!
Thank you so much, you're awesome!
Excellent!
Love watching you paint!
Great to see you on UA-cam again Steffan, I've learned more about how to paint from you (and a Mr A Tischler) than anywhere else. You can explain and describe things with perfect clarity, using as few words as possible. And you make it look effortless. Thanks so much for sharing!
Thanks so much
@@StefanBaumann Just watching it over again! :)
That’s what I like about you--you are practical, and your tools and supplies are excellent.
This is the best video you have put out! So much energy and excitement! Love it!
Beautiful scenery, very spectacular, I like such a place to travel and paint!
Thank you so much for sharing ! Wonderful.
Thank you for sharing your knowledge. A pleasure to watch and learn.
Thank you.
Exceptional focal point
Always love watching you paint and thanks for the great tips.
Thank you so much. I missed you.
Fabulous ❤️🖌🖼
I learned a ton. Thank you.
A very informative video and a lovely painting. Thank you.
It’s beautiful!
Thank you Stefan, sorry I missed your live session.
Thankyou Stefan
fantastic tips, loved this video thankyou
Very inspiring sir
I totally immersed myself into watching you paint this beautiful scene with such beautiful subtle colors and values that just let my eyes wonder and enjoy the beautiful light source your have placed into and around your focal point !
I have watched so many of your videos and listened to your Pod casts which I find really inspiring but now watching you paint has been an extra bonus ! I love your thinking process and the way you explain about painting techniques . I have finally just downloaded your ebook and I cannot wait to read it slowly and thoroughly ! I know I will love it as I just skimmed through a couple of entries and even your wording is exceptional and well chosen !
Sincere Thank You Mr. Baumann . I truly appreciate your time and always look forward to your videos. Warmest regards from Malta....Lorraine 🤗🎨
En plein Air, More More More!!!!!!
Beautiful painting Stefan...I am taking art course and learning a lot but I still learn when watching these videos...I paint in acrylics and learning to draw right now and will be learning pastels next then water colors then oils and lastly acrylics which funnily enough I started painting with first but I love it...so thanks for teaching me more...I love it...also ppl always ask me how much would I sell a painting for and I’m like I have no idea at this moment lol
Would like to see you paint more. Thank u.
Pretty cool how the sunlight is falling on your canvas
You are great!
Aww, man! I'd love to go for the workshop.
That was great 👍 I have the paints and the rest. I gotta paint plain air.
amazing ...
Great lesson. To bad webside does not have option to buy and download!
I’m painting along with you in this painting and I really like adding the turpentine and the effects that it causes now that the block in is done I’m going with Liquin for the remaining work, details. Is this ok?
I have another question , do you favor cobalt blue over ultramarine blue ? and you said that cobalt blue was a little sweeter ,do you use ultramarine blue and if so when do you like to use ultramarine blue? I learned a lot in this quick little painting . I want to follow along with you on your Grand Canyon one too. I like how you used paint thinner to remove paint to expose the wash that you laid down prior to starting the composition. very cool !!
you need both blues but cobalt is sweeter
I would like to thank you Stefan, I am watching all your vids taking notes one day I will be a well known NZ artist. I just got a website I’m following your instructions step by step I’m a watercolourist
Many of my coaching students are watercolors, you might want to try someday
Great work coach
Awesome lesson! Thank you!!!
Thank You!
Hello Stefan I love your u tube instructions
Thankyou
Damn, I was getting my head drilled at the dentist when this aired live.
OH GEEZ!! I needed a good laugh! This was a great comment.
i love ur art man
who is the guy behind the mic? sounds like mike
I would love to win the painting. I am a big fan of Stephan.
What do you use for your mixing medium?
I have lots of brushes and lots of tubes of acrylic paints. Now I realise I don’t need it all, so will be thinning out my number of brushes and buy quality and not quantity. Will no doubt switch to oils one day.
Do it now
I have a painting that ticks all your criteria for a great painting, I would love to send you a photo for your reaction, I have learnt a lot from your you tube channel ,
Are you using mineral spirits as you paint?
At 44:40 you mention not liking complimentary colours. I think it depends on what you're painting, I use them on purpose to make my cartoons stand out even more.
Does anyone know what brand Asphaltum he was referring to? Is it possible he meant Richeson Brand and the caption was incorrect (“Richardson Beand”)? Thanks! ☮️💜
When do u glaze
I HAVE LEARNED A GREAT DEAL LISTENING TO YOU.....WHY ALWAYS LEARN THE HARD WAY, WHEN GREAT TEACHERS CAN SAVE YEARS OF EXPERIMENTATION WHERE THE END MAY NOT COME TO YOU....
I always learn .... or relearn .... something each time I "sit in class"
What type of paint are you using? Brand do you like?
any
I wonder if you can tell us the pigment in asfaltum?
I have in other videos
If I'm sitting on the beach the horizon line would be Michele lower than the middle of the canvas. Is that correct?
Oops, much lower than the middle of the canvas
What size canvas?
What about the focal point!
I cant believe in watching this at 3.16am 🤪
Go to bed
@@StefanBaumann nope! I watched to the end! Thank you sir . More of those pls! 🎨
