  • In this painting studio tutorial video, I show you techniques to improve your skills at painting nocturnes. When painting nocturnes it is important to work on a dark toned support. This will facilitate achieving the look of darkness in your painting. It helps if your toned support is not quite dry when you do the wipe out method with some turps like I did in this piece. This method helps you capture the feel of the composition right off without a heavy investment in paint. It is easier to correct issues at this stage. I also used some cold wax medium in the painting to achieve a matte finish when the paint dries. I hope you found the video useful.
    Thank you for watching the video.

    Great painting and tutorial. You are so generous with your teaching! Love nocturnes of ordinary scenes, like this. Capturing everyday scenes. Have been interested in trying nocturnes for some time now, and you have inspired me! Thanks for all you share, know how much it's appreciated!

    Well done Bruce! I like your adventurousness in choosing various scenes to paint. You make the simplest compositions into a work of art.

      Thank you so much. I enjoy mixing it up it keeps me learning new things. It's dangerous to paint the same thing over and over. You risk repetitiveness and formulaic practices.

    Hi there. Once again you are so encouraging. I have been a little frustrated and needed to hear you say keep trying, keep practicing. It’s the motivation i needed! Going to try a night scene tomorrow. Thank you!!!!!

      Your welcome. Improvement only comes from repetition and practice :) Good luck with the night scene.

    I'm just curious, but why do you work small (scale)? Love your paintings.

      Hi Reese - In this particular case I was doing some smaller nocturnes to test out a satin varnish I wanted to use on them when dry. The more glossy varnishes are very distracting on dark paintings
      . I am interested in working larger ( 36 x 36 on the easel now) to learn the painting language I'll need to express myself on such a scale. Also of some concern is my limited work area to work on or store larger pieces. A larger studio would be useful to "spread my wings". Thanks for watching my channel.

    Talking about frames, how do you frame a wet painting in a pleinair show ? Doesn't it stick to the sides ? Great little painting !

      Some artists might use W and N Liquin ( which helps the paint dry quicker) and make a conscious effort to avoid thick paint a 1/4 " from the edge to minimize sticking to the frame. Normally I use floaters and was contemplating using Velcro strips on the back of the panel and on the frame to secure it for the event. I've decided, however, to try some black plein air frames (3 1/4 wide) from Blick for the event instead. I think it will made the framing easier for the exhibit preparation and make a striking visual statement.
