First Class demo; welcome back Michael! You've certainly achieved a unique look to your work, which isn't easy given the vast number of artists out there.
I just love to watch you paint. Every part of your painting looks like an actual photograph. It is so amazing to watch. One thing that I have learned from you is how to put the sky back in the tree!!! It really does make the painting look great. I plan to try this technique when I have painted too many leaves on the tree! Thanks for sharing. 🖌🎨💙💚💜
Super tutorial Michael! I appreciate it when you explain the mixing of the colors, that's my biggest frustration at times is getting the correct value and hue in my colors for the trees.
Hi Michael, thank you so much for sharing your videos. You are a wonderful artist, and I just love your techniques and how you paint such real to life paintings. You are also an excellent teacher, and I can't wait for your full time teaching videos. Thank you so much for teaching me your style of painting, you are my favourite artist by a long way.
What a wonderful talent ! I think your technique of laying in of the acrylic base gives a really good start for getting to the "good stuff". Just wonderful. I wish I had a place to paint.
Michael; You are just in time to inspire again. Here in Oregon day before last, was "mist and mizzle" hence very atmospheric... a quick snap-shot across a horse pasture, all greens and greys, plus a chestnut mare right at the sweet spot of the composition. I cannot wait to make a try with your techniques.
Hi Michael,. I have watched your videos over and over for the past year and continue to enjoy each one you release. I follow your advice and I am really pleased at my progress. Recently I have noticed you are releasing fewer videos, no doubt holidays and work commitments etc. Hope its not because you are getting bored with doing them. Can you reassure us mere mortals that more videos are on the way.
Thank you Michael for what you do. I have learned so much since watching you. And besides being a great painter I have watched your video production become outstanding!
I'am always amazed by your painting you are sooooo good thank you for your sharing, for all the time you take for showing us how to do, this is also amazing !!
once again superb work.sir I am learning from your videos and really great full to u for sharing your techniques.if possible pls give us a lesson on how to paint a detailed tree trunk.thanks
How lovely to have found your video tutorials on line! You are a wonderful painter and such an inspiration to us all. I haven't painted for twenty years but I am chomping at the bit to get something done. Just awaiting my brush set from Rosemary & Co. Are we any closer to your online classes? Can't wait for the next tutorial!!
hello Mr james , your paintings are wondeful , I always enjoy watching them . Thanks alot for all. please teach us how to paint pinetrees from distance view and near, For example a scene from alaska. Thanks .
Your style is well suited for small surfaces and look amazing realistic. But have you ever worked on a large piece, say 36" x 40"? I'd love to see how you apply your style to larger areas, but I could also see something like that taking a year to complete.
I have tried Michael's technique on larger canvas 24"×18" landscapes and background landscape in wildlife paintings of 36"×40".It is perfect and absolutely amazing
Очень нравятся Ваши уроки, доступно и понятно. Жаль только, что нет ни одного целого урока от начала до конца создания картины, я бы хотела попробовать нарисовать пейзаж с деревьями, травой и водой по Вашему уроку целиком. Нет у Вас такого урока? Я не нашла.....
HI Michael, ive been watching your vids for a while and trying your painting techniques, one question for you, do you do anything with the pallet or oils to stop them drying out as you paint? my oils seem to dry with a skin over them before i finish the area im working on.. thanks for sharing the vids ...
Michael James Smith hi thanks for coming back to me... the same as you, all brand new... I we Liquine and white spirit when mixing etc... cheers Grahame
Michael, I am now doing better . I still have Parkinson's, but I have to,learn to live with it. You brighten my day so I still watch you paint. Have a drink on me. Top shelf only. Send the bill to president Trump, he owes me one!! Fran
What's your opinion on Bob Ross? I apologize, because I know you've been asked 40 million times, but I don't have the sobriety to search for it. I cannot grasp this sort of art. I can express myself with music relatively well, but the visual arts are lost on me.
Every single time I watch one of your videos - even if I’ve seen it before - I learn something. Thank you for that.
Welcome back. Another master class!

Awesome! How do you colour match from your tablet? Just eyeball it?
Absolutely amazing content! Can the same effects be achieved with acrylic?
Очень нравятся Ваши уроки, доступно и понятно.
