I think im gonna cry. Learned more by watching your videos in an afternoon then In Years. Some people can’t afford lessons. Thank you so very much!
That note about starting with a dirty base. When you used the sky as an example, it really clicked. I'm definitely going to make a note of that for future paintings. So nice to see your work again.
yeah, me too. Really makes sense. Using saturated colors makes me think of making a lot of holes on a wall with a drill, then chosing one to put the screw, and then covering all the holes youre not using with wall putty lol
Cheers!!
Mark, your videos have taught me so much and brought me so much pleasure. Thank you for your generously-given time.
Thank you for painting on here. I look forward to when you paint again. Your tips are wonderful and very useful.
Mark, you are a master painter and have done great still life demos, but I can't get enough of your landscape demos, so thanks for this! Keep 'em coming! Also, great deal on your Geneva paints, on sale. I bought a set about 3 mos ago and am loving them. They are like no other paints out there. Thanks Mark!
Great timing, I was just going through pictures I had taken from my trip to Key West earlier this year that I wanted to paint. Thank you for being an inspiration! 😊
Excellent video, excellent lesson; tremendously helpful. Thank you, Mark, for your talent and your honesty.
I have been watching all your videos since September this year did everything you explained lighting, easle, pallet stand, portion deviders colour checker ect and last week I put ur method into action and I can't belive the transformation in my art thank you very much from Scotland
Thank you for the insight Mr. Carder. I enjoyed your commentary thoroughly. Very helpful bits and considerations throughout the whole video and of course the video and painting itself was a treat too.
Best regards from Germany.
Keep 'em coming!
Thank you so much for your generosity! I get so much from your beautiful paintings and extremely helpful teaching style!
Great tutorial, thank you. Really good point also about how individual parts isolated should look like great abstract artworks in their own right. That really can't be stressed enough, at least when it comes to this style of painterly painting. Of course in a photorealistic style it's a different story. But for this kind of style, you are literally working as both a realistic painter and an abstract painter at the same time. I've zoomed in on some Sargent paintings that were literally the most striking and beautiful examples of abstract art that I've ever seen.
One tip that really helps...look at your palette of paint. Without even trying the palette inevitably becomes a wild abstract work of art. Variety, randomness, freedom of movement, and absolute effortlessness from end to end. Not one speck of the palette looks "tight". It's completely loose and free. You can really get a lot of inspiration by noting how the palette looks. Make the painting look like the palette...
Thank you thank you thank you!! When I started using Geneva paint exclusively and following your tutorials several years ago I was challenged by sometimes getting a "dirty" color but it seemed to fit in what I was creating do I went with it. Your explanation of how the color balances out each other is perfect.
I'm so glad you have posted videos that go a step beyond beginners. I really needed this.
Working on a logo this morning listening to your video, I appreciate your experience and perspective on painting, very informative and insightful. My perspective on oil is changing. As a painter coming from an acrylic background, I learned to adjust as I went, and it is very correct for you to state that acrylic artist do not think about white, or colors the same... that is not to say that they cannot be manipulated to look as oils, but it take an enormous amount of experience to do well... I find my oil experience is growing by leaps and bound because I am learning for the fist time to mix colors more accurately, and not rely on adjustments. Thanks for you insights!
Beautiful. Anytime I can watch you paint I feel so inspired. Love your dirty approach.
And I love Mark's thorough explanation and hearing his thought process is useful and helpful... Even his deprecating humor along the way keeps things so light and fun! Truly a world-class artist and teacher
Beautiful... and I really enjoy how you explain everything as you paint along. 👌🏽👌🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽
Been following you for nearly two decades...I really like this period you are in.
This is absolutely magnificent! This lesson is so informative! The painting is beautiful!
I watched so much of your stuff, absolute living master. There was a video where you explained how lack of detail but the right value is better then detail and showed an artist who painted people in a quarry, they were just daubs of paint. I can't remember the artist now but it was an act of magic.
Really helpful to me as I’m very inclined to blend. Will take your advice about creating texture. Great video!
Thanks a lot Mark! This was amazing and I really enjoyed your tips and explanations on how to use the colors an work out a beautiful painting. Thanks again.
So helpful! Especially your lesson about thinking of burnt umber as dark yellow, to avoid bringing the value up...thank you.
Love your demonstrations. Thank you!
Awesome! Glad your back!
So simple but so profoundly gorgeous. The photograph is boring compared to the painting.! So beautiful because it calls to mind the most beautiful morning or sunset sky I've ever seen.
yes... you made the sky better at the end. You did what you just instructed... you added that "high end" (bright) value. Looks great!
I'm someone who doesn't know how to paint , but i'm drawn to landscape painting for some reason , your painting is just brilliant my friend , i live out in the middle of the countryside in Ireland and there is so much i would love to paint but at 51 yrs old , my days of learning new things are over
You make it look so easy!
Beautiful work.
As always, very informative and I always love to watch your painting process. I loved your choice of subject matter , but I also always add the feeling of being very close -- being able to move freely in the landscape - walking, sitting, lying, looking at a beautifull place as this - seeing with the total body-heart-mind 🙃🎶💜🎵🦄
Thanks Mark...very useful painting...liked see your true painting style coming out...when you are talking about potentially overdoing the painting...you add "yellow" highlights to the far left trees...and it caused a whole perception shift. Loved it!
So many excellent tips gleaned. Thank-you, Mark, for that!
very informative, love how you explain the thinking process throughout . thank you
Love your work. Stay blessed. Love from Pakistan and Afghanistan
New video!!!! Finally!!! Thank you so much
Thank you! I’m learning more and more with your videos!
Good tip and observation on the mix between dirty and clean colour; clean can only “glow” against the dirty - simple but essential 👍
Mark, nice to see another video. Good information and lovely painting. Best wishes for a happy thanksgiving
Please do a video on painting sheer fabrics . I'm learning oil painting with your channel and it has been a such big help thank you so much
So wonderfull painting from thailand
Master speaks and paints
..thank sir!
Your videos have helped me tremendously. Thank you so much!
This was great to watch, I learned many things from you just in short time. I hope you will go on to take educational videos like this one.
You r one of my fav teacher on utube
Thanks for this Mark, very much appreciated. Greetings from Sweden.
This is just what I needed, thanks a lot.
Nice brother!! Thankyou so much for this lesson! Master your colors is the key thanks!!💪
Love this style of psinting
Thanks so much for your content my friend. I know you might get sick of repeating the drills and rules people want to skip. I have one question though. Is there a reason you use a stain on the canvas for a neutral tone rather than a dark tan Gesso layer or just paint the canvas the same color as the stain?
I need to take your class!!
I have recently discovered painting the very dark greens over the almost black on some privet bushes and it was a really satisfying experience, if that doesn’t sound too weird.
Wow beautiful
Beautiful!!
Thank you very much. Love the work. ❤️😁
Thanks again Mark
Russ Chamberlain: I spoke of your channel in my last vid (if that is cool) It is good to see a new vid of yours; Thanks. Man
Great video Mark!!
Just a quick tidbit - at the end of the video when the you put your links on the screen can you please make sure they don't cover the painting?
It's so beautiful, I'd love to see the whole piece.
Keep on uploading, we love your work...
You are the best teacher
That is really well done
So beautiful
Cool. Mark stay in touch
I’ve seen almost all of your videos. I’m a 22 year old realtor and artist on the side. I oil paint and use basic cheap artist loft paint that is super thick and hard to make flow. I can’t afford the Geneva Artist oil paint yet and I use an old wooden pallet that isn’t really the easiest to work with. I would rather use a glass pallet like you do. But what mediums can I use in my paint to get the flow that Geneva oil paint achieves until I can afford better paint?
Hi Mark, I love your work, thank you so much for teaching us what you know.
I have a question for you. I know you don't make these Q&A videos anymore but I have watched every single one of them and I have been searching through your website and forum but I did not find my issue addressed. Therefore, I hope you could answer that. How do you manage to clean your glass palette with dry paint on it ? In my case, either I have to use a lot of paper towel or I have to put the whole palette in my bath and rinse it with hot water while rubbing it with a sponge. I find both solutions a bit messy and wasteful in material. If you could help me with this I would be thrilled. Thanks !
(If you happen to have the same problem, please like my post so he can see it.)
You can use something called a glass scraper that you can get at a hardware store. It can scrape off dried paint.
@@RobertF- thank you, I will look up for one.
I am a follower of you from Argentina. I don't understand English and I would like your videos had a Spanish translation. Thank you very much
For God's sake learn english and watch these vedios. You will feel great. Its worth it.
As a past-blind landscape architect, how do we (I) sign up for your class on line or in person? Your input has changed my landscape paintings in a big way. Thank you for your instruction. Cheers
Oh gawd, if i keep watching im gonna wanna take the paints out!!
Ikr.
Bust 'em out
Mark I love your stuff. I decided to follow your work flow, but before I even start, I'm trying to learn as
much as possible before even lifting a brush . One question for you. How do you check and compare color or value on areas that are very small or just slivers, or if very far away (too small) when painting En plein air. If you could address this in a video sometime I'll be watching. Thanks much.
What do you mean specifically by allowing the viewer to see surface of the canvas? Let some of the underlayer show through?
I understood it is the texture of the paint, like a brushstroke mark. He covered the surface entirile.
What’s the secret to using blue and yellow without everything turning green?
very very carefully
use scrambling tec
Purple
Thankyou. Very intuative. My question is this: I have always worked with Acrylics and have decided to dabble in Oil now. I am taking up residence in an artist studio with several others. How do you feel about 'Water based Oils as opposed to the original Oil? I happen to know that a couple of members of the studio have allergies. But usability and blending wet on wet appeals to me. What is your thoughts on this? Thankyou.
We need t-shirts that say ‘paint dirty’ or ‘build the dirty base’ 😂😂😂
Painting by numbers
thank you
¿Podría subtitular en español ?Gracias .Es Ud.un gran artista.
Thank you ❤
I just saw the episode 14 of q&a, in you explain how to draw sitill life and portrait, in still life from life, not from photo I understand the Golden line, but what About When you draw something that is actually moving? Like you are talking with someone and Drawing at the same time or you draw someone without them notice, When you cant have a stable reference like sea in life.
And what About changing the expresion of a portrait from photo, you get someone references off, how can I make a good result from that.
Thanks for All you do!
I also like to use a neutral canvas, so do you prepare your canvas and set it aside to dry with or without thinning?
fyi, try to leave a bit of time for the "finished" painting... the recommendations printed right over the last ten seconds of your video blanking it completely out.
LOL...True!!!
You mentioned not liking soft brushes. I think that's how you described it , could be wrong.The question is what brushes do you use.
I don't know that u can really put into words why things are beautiful and not beautiful - 🥺🥺
Hi! What kind of brushes do you like to use?
I have used the Geneva canvas stain, but it always seems very dark. Is there a trick to getting the mid-value with the stain? Your canvas in this painting looks mid-value.
keep doing sir
Still waiting on that next landscape :P
Sir beutiful ,😍👍
I stdy color mixing for sutibal natural color ,it is important
Please uplode colour mixing training
Can someone explain “milky” with a link or example?
Mark answer me: why do I paint when photographs are easier. Still I can't stop painting. Why do I paint: I can not answer.
👍👍
I struggle with color so much. I have no confidence in my eye.
Howdy. I lost all my paintings and oil paints. That's sweet.
J.
Would you be so kind as to donate some paint? That would be nice.
J.
Do you ever get excited about anything. Asking for a friend.
That might be a good tutorial getting your values right but your colors wrong. Opposed to getting your colors right and your values wrong
I enjoyed viewing your content !
Please produce more stuff like this
Your video reminds me of oli mueller.
His videos are like beejaydel mixed with Borodante
You can visit his youtube channel #DigitalOliMueller
In all seriousness, my reaction is that this is not a good painting demonstration and I do not think it provides good guidance to less experienced painters. On top of this, I would not buy or hang up such a painting. It is too contrived and plodding, and fails to capture freshness or immediacy.
I think you did make it worse near the end
We are all on lockdown and skint , and you are wasting fuckin paint like that.
Blend but don't blend idk what you are trying to tell people, all I know I paint what I want.
Lazy.
