- James Gurney paints a dahlia at Stonecrop Gardens. Gurney shares his insights on switching between different modes of seeing while painting in casein. He emphasizes the importance of continuously controlling your visual attention to see only what you need to see at each stage and tuning out the rest. He also shares a few bizarre facts about the visual skills of honeybees.
More about casein painting in the instructional documentary "Casein Painting in the Wild": gumroad.com/l/casein
Gurney is an artist and author best known for his books "Color and Light," "Imaginative Realism," and "Dinotopia." He specializes in painting on location in gouache, casein and other water media.

When James Gurney uploads a video, you drop everything to learn from the master.
Three videos in one month? And it's not even Christmas! What a time to be alive 😌
james gurney 🤩
😮 Me encantaría escuchar tus tutoriales en español 😊❤
01:15 "...in the early stages I'm thinking about aspects of the subject that I can't see as much as the things that I can see." might just be the most important piece of advice about drawing and painting you hear, maybe ever! The mistakes we make in our art, and the passages that look wrong, but we're not sure why, often have to do with assumptions we make about how things look, when instead we should be investigating real appearance and structure!
You're extremely talented...God has blessed you richly. You are wow!
Gorgeous Dahlia painting. Thanks for sharing this wonderful information with us!
Stunning. It's so easy to not see the flower for the petals, so to speak, but you clarify the process. Just magic watching it all come together.
Fascinating about the bee's eyesight changing!
Mr. James, como siempre es un placer escucharte tanto en inglés como en español. Abrazos!
Always a bloody delight watching the way he freely and almost carelessly lays in the first layers to cover the white paper,
and then gradually works with the pigments to tighten and bring out the image.
When the camera shows the painting along with the subject, it's always the subject that suffers. Love your work! Aloha
Gosh, I wish I could be like a bee to check my values! Thanks, Gurney!
Cheers, Mr Gurney. Always enjoy watching you paint and also the knowledge you give.
Delightful James! Thank you
The bee as the focused subject with the flower motion blurred as a bonus satellite painting would have been cool. 😊
James your Spanish is amazing ! Greetings from Mexico !
What a James Journey! Lovely to see.
You are truly a master! Thank you for sharing your knowledge 🙏🙏
Please do more flower paintings! They are so underrated
James you are the best! I love your energy, it makes me happy.
Muy buen video, Maestro! Saludos desde España! 🇪🇸
Dear Mr. Gurney, thanks for your salute in Spanish, although I'm not Mexican. Best regards from Spain!
Fabulous ❤. Thankyou very much.
Wish this video were longer!! Nice painting!
Dahlia is my favourite flower and that is an amazing painting 😊
Un saludo para tí también desde Chile, James, y muy agradecido por todo el material que hasta ahora has publicado en tu canal. Bravo!!
Hello! You created a very cute flower! I love how you chose the color combination on your piece of art! You are a great talent!

Hey! Hello from Spain, master 💖
🇲🇽Wooow me encantó escucharte hablar español. Greetings from México 🤗 I have bougth your books, I hope to learn and practica a lot with them. Thank youuuu
Gran trabajo! Saludos desde España! 😊
I was going to complain that bees can see ultra violet, which you don’t depict, but you covered that one! I hadn’t heard about the vision mode switching, so all in all, this was very useful lesson. TY.
Glad you enjoyed it!
Your videos are always a breath of fresh air. Thank you! Gorgeous painting!
Excellent as always!!
Me sorprendí al escucharte hablar español ,muy bien!!😊
Un saludo muy afectuoso desde México, gracias por compartir su valioso conocimiento y bendiciones James 🎨
Fantastic video and painting! thanks again James! Y gracias por tu saludo a los que hablamos español, vaya sorpresa!! :D
Master Gurney, you make the best darn Bee ever!!🐝🐝🐝🐝👩🦳🖌️
PS: The sunlight reflected up from the petals of the leaves is only slightly superceded by the glorious light reflected up from the petals of the Dahlia. Exquisite, simply exquisite! 👩🦳🖌️🐝
You painted such a beautiful dahlia! I always feel inspired while watching you paint. Your work is stunning!
Saludos desde México Mr. Gurney, que sorpresa oirlo en español y gracias por siempre compartir tan valiosa información.
Beautiful ❤
You had done a dahlia painting a few years back. It was one of my favorite paintings of these gouache style . Thank you for giving us an insight. Because I always sit there watching you Paint and wondering, how does he do it?
Maravilloso proceso! Saludos desde Chile 💖
Your Spanish is really good James! You are my fav artist eveeeeer! If you ever want to do a painting trip, Mexico would be a really cool place for that! Saludos desde Mexico 🫶🏼
Saludos desde España!, tus vídeos son verdaderamente placenteros, he aprendido muchísimo de ti a lo largo de los años
Loved this vid!
I love the idea of diving into a flower which becomes a universe in itself. It reminds me of the beginning of William Blake's poem Auguries of Innocence, and also Georgia O'Keefe's wonderful flower paintings. Your dahlia is stunning and your thoughts on perception and vision are so interesting. Thank you! ❤
i recently saw Georgia when i was in Manhattan at the moma. it was very obvious that she was academically trained because her abstractions have an incredibley delicious reality inspired character. she painted like a mofo. love her work
I agree, her work is amazing! She was one of a kind
Gracias por hablar español! excelente video, saludos desde Perú 🇵🇪
Woooo hello back from Mexico!
WOW, that is SO beautiful. Awesome! I wish I could hang around with you, with another artist and just paint!
I know what you mean about having to stay away from the details while you're just starting the picture, otherwise it get intimidating. I love how you used the grey for the shadow. I'm going to make more use of the colour in my artistic endeavours as well. It looks so good how you did it. It's just so beautiful, your painting!
Saludos James desde Chile !!
Que genial escucharte hablar español
Magnifique
❤❤❤❤
Saludos maestro! Gracias por otro gran aporte!
I'm relieved to know even the legend uses white jelly roll pen for highlights
wow 👏👏
Another wonderful tutorial James! Thank you 😊
It always seems like magic when you create the final image.
Im from center of América and this is so awesome art i love it
Delightful!! ¡Muchos saludos desde México!

Increíble trabajo. Como oírte hablar un poco español!
Hola desde México!
saludos desde jalisco
Hola desde Mexico, good pronunciation by the way, and I’m a Spanish teacher haha
Looking at the monster piles of thrift store and garage sale glass front frames in my studio and wondering if varnish would have been a more sensible approach. At least... a less cumbersome approach.
Use what you have, not what you don't. Plus you don't have fumes to breathe.
@tthomas184 I usually do watercolor. So, I prefer glass. I like to keep the matte finish. Unless I go nuts with the paint and leave shiny spots, which happens a lot.
Thank you for your videos, I’ve learned so much from you. I purchased casein after watching one of your videos but it has such a foul odor, I find it difficult to use,is this normal?
Yes, casein has a unique smell and it's normal. Some describe the aroma as medical or like a cleaning agent. The manufacturers tell me it comes from an ingredient that keeps the milk ingredients from spoiling (which would be a worse smell). I'm used to the smell and kind of like it, but I understand if it's not your cup of tea. All I can suggest is to paint outside on windy days?
Un saludo desde Bogotá, Colombia. Anímate a realizar un tutorial en español!😊
Mmm donuts.... mmm bagels!
Do you mix your colors before beginning the painting? Do use a different brush when you use a different color?
I see you worked on a board for this, but at other times you’ve used casein in watercolor sketchbooks. I’ve been hunting to determine paper weight that will work with casein in a sketchbook, but have found no information except “use a rigid surface”… can you please tell me what you suggest James? I’ve got casein paints on the way but am hesitant to order a sketchbook yet (or make my own if I need heavier paper, such as 300#)
Cool, I understood the Spanish before I read the translation!
So when your flying into a new painting, see in b&w (or in values) and not until you land on the details do ya see in color… hmmm who knew bees were art teachers
do you find it harder to paint from a picture than from real life
Por favor en español
Hey James, I need some advice. I went to study art a liberal arts college in 2018. While there I had a strong feeling in my gut that I wasn’t really being taught what I needed to be taught. I’ve been working in a factory for years now, trying to save up money to attend an Atelier to actually learn how to paint and draw. But it’s financially out of reach for me. I feel like my hopes are dashed. I am wondering if you’ve had any experience with bad teaching at schools. Honestly sometimes I feel like I was pranked. We spent far too much time navel gazing and taking about post-modern ideas of everything being art, the death of the author, etc. I wanted to paint like the masters. I did not get that, and I’ve felt completely lost for years. It really does feel like if you don’t have the privilege of living on either the East or west coasts then you’re out of luck for a classical arts education. I just don’t know what to do with my life anymore. I have become the classic Fox News stereotype of the man with an art degree, that is to say a failure. I’m 28 years old, I don’t know what to do. I feel like I have been wandering in the wilderness for years now.
Uh pay for an online class
No hay flor. No hay pintado. No hay pintador.
There is only paint and paper.
HE UPLOADED NDHXJSBZUZ :0
James, I'm sorry for being off topic, but there is someone pretending to be you on RUclips. Replied to one of my comments on your post, telling me to message him via Whatsapp, and I immediately knew something was off, and tried reporting hes channel, but couldn't. He has the same profile picture as you, and Gurney is spelled with double "y".
Thanks for letting me know. I'll look into it.
I think Dahl was a swede
