You are a literary and visual genius Richard ... I so admire the way you present these videos ... filled with the love of nature, awe spontaneity. ... and skill. The real deal. THANK YOU.
So nice of you to say so Jackie! I do love being out there creating!
Richard, you have an absolute gift thank you so much for sharing your talent with us
That is an amazing painting
Yes Richard your love for the outback shines throught your work
Невероятно что Вы создаете на полотнах! Ваши путешествия по Австралии дают нам возможность увидеть удивительную красоту мира! Ваша хозяйственная сноровка учат нас многому! Успехов Вам в творчестве и жизни!
G'day Richard, I have been broadening my experience by looking at some other artists who use palette knives and I find myself returning to your videos. You do with a large knife what others do with a small one. Your ability to whoosh the knife across the canvas and add a keynote colour is inspiring. You seem so much freer with your ability to capture the mood and tone of the landscape. Your passion and sense of fun comes through and following your journey from beginning to end with last minute changes as the light changes is unique. Love the mixing of paint on the pallette and what each colour does to knock it back or enhance. The outback is definitely your playground mate, I feel transported there following along. The other thing that sets you apart from most is that you answer every comment. It is your interaction with your followers that makes the journey a beautiful experience. This latest paint is stunning mate, love the tree tones. "You make the most of the situation and you find the beauty in any subject, any day". Gold right there with those wise words Richard. Cheers, Rich.
Hey thanks CosMos Artistry, I really do appreciate the positive feedback! You're too kind, I really do love being out there in the Outback and hope this shines through in my work! Cheers :-)

Really enjoyed that, brilliant painting, 👍👍
Richard this one is bloody awesome champ
Hey thanks, really appreciate 🎨👍🤠
I enjoyed watching your beautiful work.
Thank you very much Michelle!
Love the way you do things Richard, I use your work to inspire my work, although I’m totally useless with a painting knife. I don’t exactly copy you, but your paintings have a huge influence on mine, especially the outback stuff. I’m doing the gums on the Darling on a much smaller scale at the moment. Thanks for your inspiration Richard, I’m gradually improving thanks to you and my old mate Len Hend. Cheers.!!!😎🇦🇺🦘
Cool! Happy Painting!
Ричард! Это бесподобно! Браво! Благодарю за столь необычный и замечательный мастер-класс! Творческих удач и успеха!
С удовольствием, спасибо за отличные отзывы!
S udovol'stviyem, spasibo za otlichnyye otzyvy!
Your videos are amazing and so are your paintings! What a wonderful adventure.
Hey Marilyn, thanks for watching and enjoying!!!
@@richardmusgrave-evans9886 you have inspired me to get back to my plein air knife painting roots and I can't tell you happy I am about that.
@@marilynrose8122 Fantastic! Happy knife painting 🖼
Can't wait to see what you do next! It's great 👍
Thanks Chery! 😊
Well done with all those changes in the light going on!
Thanks Joan! It was a great day and one I still think of!!!
Fabulous.
muy bueno...se ve que disfruta lo que hace...ADMIRABLE !!!!!!!....linda vida,
Gracias, me encanta estar ahí fuera pintando!
Really inspiring! When I watch you videos I feel a strong urge to paint! Thank you!
You can do it! Cheers!!!
Tes. Me too
Your work is inspiring👏 and I wanted so much rain..
Hey thank Natalia🎨👍😃
Du übertreibst die Farben sehr mutig. Du machst die Landschaft in Australien zu einem Paradis. 😀
Vielen Dank!!! :-)
amazing, great, wow your interpretations blow me away.
Wow, thank you!
@@richardmusgrave-evans9886 YES, I can't say more
Thank you for sharing your plein air painting experiences! There is just so much here... painting meets bushcraft meets nature videography. Just awesome!
My pleasure 😊
wow, this is fantastic, stunning ,
Thank you so much!
All I can say is, wow!! Lovely Impressionism in this one. When you transitioned the view of a the painting into black and white a few times, one could really see the amazing number of values all over and how they worked beautifully together. And what a day!! Ending with a gorgeous evening, another painting in itself! When I saw you were staying over, I could see there would quite possibly be another painting done the next day. I hope so, and that it means another great video for us! Thank you.
I do really like the end result in this painting Julie! Yes, I thought the tonal version might be interesting to the viewer....Maybe there is another video of this trip...! Cheers for now and Thanks :)
Wow, sensacional, excepecional, exraordinário.
Hey thanks!!! :-)
thats a beauty thx again
No worries, thanks 🎨👍🖼😊
so beautifullllll work
Thank you so much Adam😊
Beautiful work and talent.
Hey thanks 😊
@@richardmusgrave-evans9886 My sons live in Australia I visit them .Seen alot in Australia.I love walking on the beach .
Absolutely LOVE this painting. It was so helpful of you to show us the black & white shots to help us appreciate the full tonal range you'd captured. Thank you so much.
I love being out there! Thanks :-)
I just loved it. You taught me to go with the changes and the result is stunning. The outdoor living is brilliant and reflected in your brilliant paintings. Thanks Bill
Awesome! Thank you Bill!
Thank you so much , u bring us to visit the green land with sunshine
That’s great, thanks 🎨👍😊
Hi Richard, the rain col thundestorms brought a breath of freshmess highlighting the colors. ......bellissimo video, 👍Ciao!
Many thanks, glad you enjoyed It!
When Mr. Richard says, " it's a bit warm," that means it's probably like a million degrees. Lol! This video really brightened up my day.
That's great thanks! Ok, it was hot as...!!! Lol :)
Hi Richard, superbe large canvas with big gum trees. These big old gum trees are so beautiful and have something human. Beautiful colors in the foreground reflecting the sandy side of the place.
Many thanks Patrick! The old River red gums do have an almost human presence about them. Cheers :)
Wow .beautify Cano paddling in the lake ,peace and rain. You remind us son of Adam in his own nature. Enjoy & we witnessing the real life you live in .beautiful work and atmospher you worthy for . Good luck brother. you not alone. God blessed and bliss you .💜from iran .
Hey thanks Parviz N!!! :)
Loved escaping to the bush ......from inside my house . What a way to isolate oneself during this crazy time. You are so very lucky.
Hi Karen, it is a good way, heading bush!!! Thanks :)
maravilloso trabajo
Hey, gracias!
Great painting, beautiful scenery and i loved the black and white shots. Good to see water in the Darling
Thanks Noreen, I appreciate! Yes, water in the Darling!!! :)
I love your videos and watching you paint. You"ve inspired me to want to paint more with the knife.
Palette knifes are a great way to paint! Cheers!
so, question. When there is both orange and yellow in your scene, do you use both compliments, like blue and purple, in your paintings? And if so, how do you manage to not get mud, like grays and browns? All I could think about when it started to thunder and lightning while you were still on the water in your boat, was, you are going to get hit by lightning! At 57:19, that would make a gorgeous painting too! Love the sky there.
I do use both complimentarys Rosemary. The knife is good for applying them next to each other, without over mixing them together to much, which would create mud! Hope this helps, Cheers :)
Have been a Louth races man for many years Richard and can't believe the change in levels on the old river between your last painting and this one - love the scenery bits in the video and your paddling and again, another great piece of work. Cheers
Yes, Its good to see plenty of water! Thanks for appreciating my vids Clive, Cheers:)
You have a kayak and a canoe, now im jellousl lol.
Yes love them Scotty 🛶 lol
You're a genius, sir! I love your art. The painting is brilliant. Fantastic job!
Thanks Harry, much appreciated 🎨👍😊
@@richardmusgrave-evans9886 Thank you as well! Greetings from the EU!
Simply brilliant. Love it.
Cheers Richard
Glad you enjoyed It, Thanks Alek!!!
So nice to see you in this beautifull nature while I’m at home ! Thank you for this escape !
My pleasure 😊Glad you enjoyed it:)
Love your uploads which are always beautifully presented and full of information. You certainly have some fabulous and interesting places to paint. But your life spent out in the bush with your brushes and canvases gives us all a great deal of pleasure. Thanks for giving us a look at the great Australian outdoors. From a Pom who spent much time in the bush in WA but never painted at the time. A great shame. Regards and keep em coming mate.
Thank you Kindly! Glad you like them!!!
It’s amazing how it all comes together in the end.... excellent work!
Thank you very much Franco!
Either the painting that you scanned at the end. Is a different painting or you changed it once you got back in the studio. Shadows of central tree missing, for example. Love your videos and the chance to observe you at work, and also chance to view Australia through your eyes. Thank you!
Cheers! I did a few finishing touches after filming!!! thanks for watching and enjoying :-)
Oh my god!! dude! Just beautiful
Hey thanks Linda, glad you're liking my work!!! :-)
Another beauty. Love your videos always.
Glad you like them!
Unbelievable what you're getting out of there.
Cheers Alice ! Thanks for watching and enjoying :-)
Beautiful scenery. Amazing colours. The painting has such depth. Great job.
Hi Lori, many thanks 🎨👍🤠
Wow - just love the way you tackle this huge format :-)
Glad you like it! Cheers!!!
Fascinante. Muchas gracias.
Cheers!!! :)
Wowww. Thanks for the video.
Thanks for watching!
That was really scary. Being on the water or under trees when thereis that much thunder and lightning... not ideal. Glad all ended okay. Great spot for painting though, and WHAT A PAINTING! Fantastic Richard!
So true Joma! Thanks, I had a great time!!!
wow what a large plein air piece to tackle! you did a brilliant job :)
Hey thanks 😊
Thanks so much for posting and sharing your wonderful video of this exceptional experience: fantastic !
Up to now, this is definitely my favourite ...ánd one of the very first of your video's I saw here on YT.
Really love it: how you immerse yourself (and me and many others through your posting) completely in this experience, how you get that special connection with nature to get that sensation needed to make a good, honest landscape paintìng .And I really love it that you work WITH nature, nót against it, that you really love and embrace the circumstances immediately when mother nature shows a bit of herself , that she can change unexpectedly and suddenly.
(Those particular times actually provided more colour-suggestions and make a richer painting possible , so ... thát's actually an advantage it seems to me...)
And this whole story can be seen in your painting if one looks carefully ...
And then there's the whole painting experience itself ... plús the resulting piece of your work in great detail at the end of the video ...
In short: this is a wonderful video ... and só inspirational to me.Keep on posting please : I'm a fan ...
But I have also a question Richard:
do you also paint portraits ? or people ? on what motivation ?
I would be intrigued by this: how would this be done, in yoúr very personal way ... in your own style ...
This seems to me sò interesting / challenging ...(I'm sure that this cán be done ...)
WOW, thanks Petrecca! I really appreciate all the great feedback! I do try to connect with the landscape when I’m painting and am happy that you can pick up on this. I do do the occasional portrait, but not that often. Thanks again, cheers 🎨🎨🖼👍🤠
Stunning piece...
Many thanks!!!
Watching from Oklahoma. You are an inspiring artist.
Thank you so much Dean! 😀
Hey Richard!! Good to see you matey...that clap of thunder made me jump nearly out of my skin!!🤣 great to see you still out and about. Specially as we are in lockdown here in Spain...cheers!❤keep safe x
You and me both! Thanks Debbie :)
Tableau magnifique 👍👍👍 belle vidéo et surtout de beaux paysages ! MERCI.!!! Boulenger Francis
Thanks! :)
Magnífico.
muchas gracias👍🎨😃
Hello Richard! First I’d like to thank you for making and sharing this exquisite video with us ! So Cool! I love traveling down the river with you! Wish I was there painting .I think we’re very fortunate to have painting to fall back on to . It keeps us from going crazy....or maybe I already am, lol ! Beautiful work , mate.....😊🦋👩🎨
Glad you enjoyed it Lorraine, many thanks!!!
RICHARD MUSGRAVE-EVANS Awesome
RICHARD MUSGRAVE-EVANS I’m painting sheep I’ll send you a pic of it soon
@@lorrainealexander1272 Thanks!

💜
Thanks!!! :)
👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
Beautiful! Your an inspiration, thank you for the video, its a nice reprieve from what is going on in the world. It took me away for an hour. Thank you so much. May i ask what music is playing in the beginning, nice touch.....
You are so welcome Betty! Falls by Keith Kenniff! :)
Technical question, your mixing board fixed on your mobile atelier, is it steel plate? Thought about handling and easy to clean. 🤔
Great video, and the painting turned out beautiful! Looks like a fun camping location. Did you do any fishing?
Thanks Rod, I wanted to, but ran out of time!
Please at the begining you put shadows/ Brown are it dry when you continue to put the other colours ? Do you use alkyde? Thank your Richard
Grazie di farci vedere la tua vita...è bellissima....vorrei essere li a dipingere con te....
Ehi fantastico! Grazie per la visione!!! :-)
Amazing,extraordinary.You’re really an excellent artist.this is the third video of yours I’m watching.Now,question: do you prepare the canvas with a layer of chalk or something?thanks in advance
Cheers, Just gesso primer!
Beautiful work Mate, I'm not finished watching yet but looking good Richard 🎨😊
Also Mate, A few trolls getting around commenting that they just comment on everyone's video to get subs. I block em. Cheers Mate 🙏🎨😷
Cheers Tez! Catch ya Mate :)
What does it mean "to get subs"?
Could you do a tour of your trailer rig? How many paintings can you store in there?
I’ve been getting a lot of requests to do that Dean, so I reckon I’ll do it so!!! Cheers 👍😊
Any crocodiles in that river? Painting looks fantastic!
Cheers Michael! No Crocs!!! :-)
@@richardmusgrave-evans9886 Awww that's good. Wouldn't want to tangle with one when you're by yourself!
Wow really fabulous xx is it for sale?
Hi Debbie, Yes...!
The work is awesome. I like your work style. Will the current isolation requirements affect you?
Thanks Charley, not as yet, but maybe soon...!
@@richardmusgrave-evans9886 If you can do this, I also want to drive the car to a place without people to paint. Watch what you do next.
@@CharleyWang I naturally do social distancing every time that I go out and paint! :) Cheers!!!
@@richardmusgrave-evans9886 The cool thing is that your oil paintings are large, which is the main attraction. My watercolors are convenient, but not suitable for large paintings.
@@CharleyWang Yes, I know what you mean, Oil is good for large scale!
How much time do your large paintings take to dry?
Anything from a few days to a few weeks Rody, depending on the temperature of the days it was painted in!
Australian Bob Ross, luv ya work mate!
Hey thanks Kelly Mate!!!
RICHARD MUSGRAVE-EVANS love how free you are when you paint, very inspiring, beautiful work!
Kelly Squire Cheers, much appreciated 🎨👍😃
Do you worry about crocodiles when you're canoeing?
There is no crocs🐊 in this area!😃
I like to immigrate to Australia , are people nice there ?
Sure there alright!!! :)
Well....
Guns are out but no sun lol!
