Your art made an impact on me in the 1990s and still is doing so 30 years later. All the best.
Thanks! I feel lucky to have been doing art professionally for more than four decades, and that’s only possible because of the interest and support of people like you.
Thanks for answering my audio question. I actually almost fell out of my studio chair when I heard my own voice! Thanks for sharing your thoughts, approach and techniques as always. I treasure your videos and insight.
"Frankly I'd relish the chance" what a great ending line!
A painting of the iconic oscar mayer weinermobile? now this is high art.
More than a decade ago me and my family visited NYC, a trip we all wanted to do for a long time. The first thing I remember seeing when I was right in the city was the Wienermobile, near Times Square (close to the hotel we stayed in). Never saw one before, but since that day I saw a few here in Spain and every single time it makes me think of that family trip and brings me good memories.
I'm an aspiring art student from Europe, and it's also fantastic to see not only your immaculate capturing of space and place, but also the portrayal and documentation of everyday American history, which seems both familiar and foreign.
Oh my goodness the puns at the end lol
Great video! Thanks James!!
That's what I love about Gouache: soft colors like watercolor but you can cover with light colors as if they're acrylic. Thank you for the content, your videos are inspiring for me! 🥰
It’s amazing how you have such loose control over that red and yellow reflection on the paint job James. Nice concise video as usual
Thank you for this lesson and memory road!!!
"Frank-ly I'd relish the chance!" HA!
I knew one of the drivers and she gave me a weenie whistle. Totally made my day hahaha.
Incredible painting and fun background. Loved hearing the explanation on highlights. Very fascinating. Thank you and happy Independence Day!
I love how you paint, really.
Very beautiful work great teacher 🙏 cordial greetings from Medellín Colombia 🇨🇴
For those of us who have fond mid-20th c. childhood memories (maybe you got to see this in a parade or grand opening event), this painting captures a little bit of what it was like, when packaged fun foods were favorite summertime treats, and everything seemed new, shiny, and larger than life. (One of our team still pines for Space Food Sticks and won't stop mentioning them.) Speaking of shiny, those reflections are just perfect!
Amazing how you caught that shiny surface! I also learned another thing from your videos: You don't have to go to faraway places to get good objects to paint. It's not the object, it's what you make out of it. Thanks so much for being one of my main inspirations on RUclips!
James, I'm always inspired after watching your videos. When it comes to cars, buildings, technical or symmetrical things, I'm pretty much self taught, but your videos encourage me! 👩🏻🎨
Thats so cool
Very good James, always a joy to watch and listen. Thanks.
YES!!! YESSSS IT'S THE WIENERMOBILE! YESSSS HELL YES DUDE. I am so STOKED for this gouache painting demonstration bros. It's the frickin' Wienermobile are you kidding me
Friggen awesome as usual:)
The painting looks like it’s from the fifties or sixties. Perfect
I always thought my name was a burden given to me by my parents, but today I’m proud to bear Oscar Meyer as my name. I’m a fan of yours, James
You both feel like kids in a toy store 🤩
Loved the painting of the wienermobile, brought be back to my childhood and seeing those commericals with the wienermobile. I appreciate all the detailed information you give throughout your paiting process you are such a great teacher. Thank you
Thank you for always enlightening different subjects to paint.
What a cool subject for a painting. I relish your videos! They help me to improve my skills, but I know I will never ketchup. 🌭
Glad you mustard the courage to comment.
"have a word from our sponsor" :)
Thanks for the painting , James.
You have such a steady hand, painting those fine lines! Very neat piece 😊
Fantastic breakdown of a complicated scene as always. Thanks Mr. Gurney!
Thank You James for this wonderful video
and a glimpse of our past.
Amazing, as always!
thanks for the longer video -- & fabulous subject matter. 😻
Happy 4th, James!!! Thank you for da Wiener! I did own the whistle. ❤ 😊
That popping arrow made my day 😅❤
This is so funny and memorable! Thanks for showing it to us. Regarding painting in museums. I live in 🇩🇪. Many museums offer portable seats and even drawing boards to draw. Some Museums have restrictions to paint with wet media -and only allow dry media like pencils. These measures have appeared after the attacks on paintings by activists here in Europe. Still, I find it pretty cool that they offer portable seats and drawing boards. ✏️📝
Been a wee while for a good length video, I struggle with gouache, 1 in every 10 looks alright, just self teaching, but this is my favourite channel on art without a doubt, thanks for that.
very nice, thanks for showing this. Enjoyed it.
Thanks for the great demo! I've twice sketched the weinermobile in the wild! Though I grew up 50 miles north of Detroit, I never went to the Henry Ford Museum.
I'm surprised they let you paint in the museum. All the museums I've been in have "pencil only", most say so on their website. Even the Museum of Flight here in Seattle recently told me they want pencil only, though they know I've sketched there in ink and watercolor for years. I'm grumpy about it.
Amazing as you always.
Thanks!
Welcome! And thanks for your generosity.
So cool.
Excelente trabalho!!!!
Você é um mestre!!!!
I've been inside one. The little "Oscar" guy was in there with his driver. I brought my girlfriend's kids. Oscar was a tough little shit. Coulda been in a Scorsese film. When these boats pull into a parking lot, they bounce.
17:23 relish... the chance... 🤣
great video. fab demo. any chance you can share your 1985 sketch book of london? cheers.
Mr Gurney could you please do a video showing some of your older sketchbook?
I've sketched in museums many times. In some cases, my bags are searched as I enter and no one has ever mentioned my sketching supplies. In some cases, as I am standing and sketching, museum workers have brought me a stool! I do sometimes ask, and sometimes I don't, depending on the location. In general I think museums are probably used to people coming in and sketching.
However, I usually do not bring a water container and tube paints to indoor public spaces, out of paranoia for my clumsiness, but I should practice more at places I know it'd be okay if something went catastrophically wrong, to gain confidence. Generally I bring my pan watercolors and waterbrush along with colored pencils, even though waterbrushes are definitely not my preferred way of working.
🤩 Lettering on the fourth layer of gouache? Is there a painter's equivalent to _popping wheelies_ ?
The Weinermobile actually stopped by wy workplace once, nothing got done for the next hour.
Omfg I was just thinking of your paintings. Fricken wiener mobile. I love it
The painting looks great James, but there is one thing I can't skip, the left side red oblong around the Oscar Mayer logo do not curve as it did in some of your shot of this subject, thus it ruins the perspective IMO.
my bologna has a first name!
😂😂Frankly I'd relish the chance!! 💀💀⚰️⚰️
Do you have ground under paint on this painting? It looks like just the white of the paper. I see in your other videos you sometimes use red or paint a ground first. So why not in this case?
Did you paint in Greenfield village, too?
If you missed the relish joke you’ll have to ketchup with your bun’s…. I mean puns.
Lol I just finished a plein air painting
This would be a wein-aer painting
James Gurney sounds like a mix between Jerry Seinfeld and Garfield
😭
Hot dog !
Is this a 4th of July special episode??
Considering the ingredients of hot dogs, it ought to be the Mystery Mobile. ;-)
Completely unsurprised you used to have a VW van.
I love the subject - that quirkiness is one of the things I like about the US.
How do you get the recorded questions?
People who saw a scan of the painting a while back sent me spoken questions via Speakpipe.com, which I wove into the voiceover edit.
Wonder if that thing's still edible after all these years hahaa!
My bologna has a first name, it's O-S-C-A-R! My bologna has a second name, it's M-A-Y-E-R. Oh, I love to eat it every day, and if you'll ask me why, I'll say: 'cause Oscar Mayer has a way with B-O-L-O-G-N-A! Ok, different product, same company.
always a pleaser to watch you paint.
Lol
I'm gonna be honest, despite watching all of your videos the subject of this video made me click on it almost instantaneously. Guess Oscar Meyers marketing scheme has worked so well
👀 Promo-SM
Unfortunately, they went and changed its name last week. Now it's the "Frankmobile"
Crazy how a reaction video specialist can get 500,000 more followers than this brilliant artist?
