    I can see the challenge of a tree that close and one far away. It turned out superb. I love the feel of standing in shadow and looking at a lit landscape. Nice. The lady has an eye for composition. The tree, road, grasses and that dappled light is brilliant. Great video. Thanks for sharing

      I think it’s important to show the reality of the process. It’s only a mistake if you don’t fix it! 😂 Every painting is a challenge. It’s finished when you’ve solved all the problems 😊👍

    This was so relevant to my paint session yesterday. I have been working, wiping out, and working on a desert tree's foliage, which is very wispy, and which is the main subject in a 14" by 24" panel. Things kept going from bad to worse, but I just kept thinking about what I am learning. I am ready to give up. I will give it a couple more tries. As you said, what have you got to lose, (except time) and it's a good learning opportunity. Maybe I will do a little study of some other artists, and then come back to it. Thanks for telling how many times you wiped it out, and painted and re-painted. These are the most valuable tips. If I had just seen it completed I would have never known that you have the same kind of struggles at times. Thanks!

    • @chamberlainpaintings
      @chamberlainpaintings  3 роки тому +1

      Oh yes, I have struggles with every painting. it's a normal part of the process. When I first started painting the struggles would often shake my confidence and I'd quit. Now I push through.

    @barbarabrown7960 3 роки тому +2

    Thank you, Michael! Just when I muttered to myself that the artists I follow rarely show failures and how to get out of them, you save the day and the painting. Scrape off, mix fresh color and have another go at it. "What have you got to lose?" Maybe some bad painting habits. What have you got to gain? Experience that leads to "Ah-ha!" insight. Thanks again!

  • @matthewgyulay2961
    @matthewgyulay2961 3 роки тому +2

    Michael, I appreciate when you tell us you struggle. It makes one feel that if those with great success struggle, we have no reason to complain about our struggles. I think you did resolve what you were talking about well, but I kept looking at the subject of the painting being the tree on the hill. The foreground really is the balance to that, and it did work. Doing my own cropping (hand held over the screen) I do think it would work well as a square composition too, but I think you brought it back to where you wanted it. By the way, when you say you were ready to give up, nobody believes you. You're too positive! Thanks for the video, nice one.

    • @chamberlainpaintings
      @chamberlainpaintings  3 роки тому +1

      Thanks, Matthew! The struggle never ends because as we grow we expect more from ourselves. I love that location but it’s challenging to paint! I appreciate the feedback! 😊

    Great work, you have nailed down green, it’s a tough colour to extend the values and tones. Well done 👍. I have always wonder if finding an area in the design to add red to complement the green.

    • @chamberlainpaintings
      @chamberlainpaintings  3 роки тому +2

      Thanks, Mike! Having orange or red in a mostly green landscape is always a challenge. My burnt sienna sketch usually allows for little complimentary pops here and there. I've just got to be careful not to cover it up!

    -(michael , “”Successfully Struggles Beauty “”, 1:24 , your sketch. a wonderous image, on the right , SEE a full impression of a pioneer woman, wind blown back hair, fully dressed in cured hide/ fashioned of combined leathers of the times, she looks across the canvas , the tree on the hill is a memory, of herself imagining her “” grown up self “”, only one can see the other. 2:57 you touch color to the face of the memory the composition visits, 2:57 you touch color to the face of the beauty holding the memory of her young self. continuing you encounter struggle at 4:11 you state “” there we go , there is the scene again “” , by vid time 7:14 you’re at finding the “” Emeralded Iridescence “” and make them shimmer in the left boughs above the shadow cast by the main compositional tree, this feels like the “”energy of the memory”” from the sketch, of one thinking of their former past self. 8:11 - 8:31 Turquoise, beautifully you bridge the actual memory to the composition experiencing the memory by bridging turquoise gently into the grasses between. 11:46 final views and awe inspiring discussion , of numerous “ wipe downs, even possibly cropping the bottom off. HOWEVER, I’m so glad you didn’t, it’s beautiful image rests comfortably in my mind. When Tad said “ It’s beautiful you set me up” , Him grinning and Maura smiling contentedly, you three shared a moment. Michael I thank you for bring and sharing the whole experience, it’s as special as the painting, thank you ❤️ )-

    -( tad , freeze at vid 8:58 , finished view, sketch view vid time 2:36 “” holds a stilled moment”” of present time, feels as if he stands in the past, looking through an oiled paper, maybe parchment, as was the windows long ago in log cabins and glass was scarce. the painting sees a foundation of the present from the the past, they are the trees on the hill. SEE left and right at canvas edge mid ground, two faces , each a silhouette, on the right silhouette points a finger to the trees, it looks toward the left silhouette, as the left silhouette stares focused on the center tree. see the edging across the top and at the bottom foreground, top of the foreground as it’s points are across the mid ground field, the field is a span of time, beautifully colored with the bluest sky above, ploddingly deep into the field the viewer goes to understand the lined under structures of the foundation. tad it is a beautiful painting I like where you say at 9:10 - 9:11 bringing it in for a landing )- ❤️

    @martingimenez339 3 роки тому +3

    Nice group of painters, Maura seems to be a very interesting woman, intelligent and assertive. Tad is hyper cool. Now Im going to do something I'd never do which is telling you something about your painting but in "advice" mode which I think it can be douchey BUT I'll only tell you because I'm seeing something there in the lower portion that maybe you haven't considered and that's why you were having trouble solving it...I think you should have tried painting the big up front tree shadow with some ultramarine mix, because you've made it dark green this time (that was what you eye was seeing obviously) and that has created a big mass of greens in the lower portion of the scene. Maybe that's why you were not so happy about it. If you change the dark green for a blue it will open up the scene and guide our eyes towards the tree on the hill. Just a though. I love the painting anyway.

      Thanks, Martin. Yes, the vibe is so good with these two. We had a great day. Your suggestion could work! I usually like to add a variety of warms and cools to the shadows and the shadow at the lower right is pretty dark and solid. I'll live with it and see how I feel about it a few days/weeks. Thanks for your thoughts!
