Hi Dan, On watching this demo, I had s strong, emotional response. It's amazing how a simple sketch can instantly take one back to place one saw in the past. Thank you for this.
You are very welcome. I always enjoy visiting this location and trying to capture some of the atmosphere is a challenge that I think is shown in these works. Glad you enjoyed it and it brought back a few memories.
Wonderful mark making, very enjoyable to watch. Do you work on pre-primed paper when using oil paint? Also how do you frame these, do they need a mat and glass? Thanks for sharing so much of your process Dan.
Nicely done Dan. I recognised which ships you were drawing in the sketchbook. The first mono-print has a strong 3-D look to it. I keep promising myself that I'm going back there. Interestingly, the mono-print looks very much like a black and white photo which took of a broken down barbed wire fence, in a field behind our house. Strange, I'd not made the connection before.
It is a very inspiring place to visit although it can be difficult to reach. When the conditions are dryer you can climb onto the wrecks for another interesting viewpoint, looking through the broken structures. I will definitely be returning to this subject.
Hi Dan, I tried the technique with watercolour, so please, with the result. I have been painting all my life, at 78 years, you taught an old dog new tricks. 😅😊😂
Yes it's just improvised with stuff I have lying around, make something similar cutting a jagged edge on card. I will sow how to make some of these in a future video.
@@DanTirels I've done the card thing, etc., I've been doing surface design on fabric for decades now, and recently moved over to paper using my geli plate.
What starts out nothing becomes a work of art. You still inspire me Dan.
Good to know, thanks for watching.
Very cool 👍
Another very inspiring video! The monoprint method works well in translating the stark bones of the derelict ships onto paper. Very cool!
Glad you enjoyed it, the location is very inspiring.
That was fantastic!!! ❤
Glad you liked it!!
Thanks for sharing!

Hello
What a fabulous scene to work from! love watching your translation to a sketch to a print. ❤️
Thank you, it's good to show the whole process, I do like to improvise but sometimes a little planning is useful.

Sounds great! I so pleased to know that you have been inspired by the video, hope you get some good creative results.
How did you make your handmade tool at the ten minute mark? Are those cocktail picks or skewers?
