I'm gonna comment what I see just about everybody else comment. You are awesome! Your ability to explain complex painting concepts simply is uplifting. Thank you good sir!
I really like how you pointed out not only things that need work, but also the good parts of the painting. Love your channel, I'm saving a lot of these videos to my painting playlist for when I get my own paint for Christmas.
Even though I paint in watercolor I still learn a lot about landscape paining from you. Composition ,color verses warmer, and value plains. As a new painter I work my paintings back to front. Thanks. And cheers from another Floridian
As I make progress with my paintings, I come back to some of these videos and each times I learn a nuance that I missed before. Chris, I like how you keep hammering away at the fundamentals. In this video, the value plains really sunk in as you critiqued the student's painting against your's. Great video.
@@billpholde4816 No need to wonder. Every single female vlogger on youtube or any social media platform has received some kind of comment about her looks on at least one of her videos, if not consistently across the rest of her social platforms. Women are used to expecting that kind of comments, which we don’t mind as long as they’re not rude. I think my comment meant to come across as funny, as I’m not being explicitly rude. Do you wonder the same thing when you see a bunch of men commenting how beautiful the woman in the video is? Because it’s the same men that point out these double standards that then complain about never receiving enough compliments from women.
@@billpholde4816 Don’t worry, no offense taken. I think it will obviously depend on the woman as well as the context and the way it’s said. I would never say something like that to a random man on the street, nor in a workplace environment. However putting yourself in the public’s eye with performances or just content like this naturally opens you up to more comments not just on what you’re explaining/doing but also your appearance. There’s also a huge difference in saying “you’re so beautiful/gorgeous/stunning” to a man or woman as opposed to “nice ass” or something like that.
Jon K Erm, "Never fail to disappoint" means the person you're talking about is always disappointing you and they are expected to disappoint you. They 'never fail' at it. Kinda like saying "You never fail to surprise me" meaning the person is always surprising you. You probably mean they never disappoint you? The person who replied to you was also making a joke at your wording I assume.
Thank you so much for all those helpful tips! How long have you been painting? You're sharing so much knowlege, that you obviously got from experience, yet you seem quite young! Keep on making and sharing beautiful art🌹
hey chris one value plane i don't understand fully is water. sometimes it's bright sometimes it's dark. I find it's sometimes a 6 out of 10 value or somewhere in the 5 range. What makes water light or darker? I think if it's full of moss and weeds, light can't penetrate it and you're seeing all these upright planes that live inside it plus whatever is reflected into it that lives around and above it. I think "oh the sky is reflected in the water so it must just be around a 7-8 value but that's not always the case. Whatever is living below the surface plays a huge role. So thinking of water as not water, but whatever is below it, being cover by water, plus whatever is being reflected on it's surface. Definitely the trickiest value zone to get to vibe with the rest of the composition. I'm beginning to understand things a little better now just by typing this. maybe this is what I needed. Thanks!
very interestig because I don't do alot of landscapes. I like cityscapes, or urbanscapes. I need to work on and improve my landscapes. One thing I wanted to pass on is that ordering from Rosemary & co. website is going to be more expensive as Fed Ex prices have gone way up. You can order the brushes from a site called Studio Pintura. They are US distributors. Average shipping price and they have most if not all of her brushes.
@@deegee8645 Undeveloped? I've painted for over half a century. Have two fine arts degrees including Ivy League. Studied with some of the top art historians in the nation. Won many awards and my works are in major collections and museums. I cannot agree that my tastes are undeveloped.
My last few plein-air paintings have resulted in a picture of one big value. When I bring the painting home it seems so incredibly dark and I am having trouble differentiating the various values on site. However, in the studio I don’t think I struggle as much with this problem. Any suggestions that may help? Thanks for any tips and your great videos.
Painting few monochrome pictures helps greatly understand values better. Another way is to first place the midtones instead of the darks. So there wont be much dark tones happening.
I would ask are you painting with direct sunlight on your canvas? Because that often will lead to washed out and or dark painting when we bring them home. Another thing that will help is to really paint your sky almost as close to white as you can get it with the appropriate saturation to key the painting. The last tip I’d give is to hold your brush up with your dark mixture and compare what’s on your brush to the darkest parts in your scene. Often we can make darks that are darker on the palette than what our eyes actually see in real life so comparing those values can help a lot.
I also echo what CRM mentioned. Go out and paint with just black and white which will immensely help your values. Values are one of the most important elements in achieving a sense of realism and depth.
@@DannySabraArt Thanks a lot for the advice! I just started painting in January, so I have a lot to learn. But I will definitely take these tips and see what I can do.
The student looks at an object in the photo, forms an idea of it, and goes off and paints the idea. The teacher relates his painting more to the actual reference.
In fairness to the student , unless told altering the composition is allowed, probably just going to lay it out as it is. Rocks blocking the access? As they do in the photo.
I've enjoyed my Patreon contacts, but I can't post a photo and now they want me to join again They don't answer my questions about how to fix this and won't let me sign in. If this isn't fixed I'm going to cancel. So sorry 😞
If not compare student painting to reference photo actually it is not bad.. Many artists using reference photos just for idea of the objects instead to paint it one in one.. Same as I do.. But of course if main goal is to follow then it makes sense)
I think your painting would benefit from using the dark, especially in the foreground trees, a bit more. Right not it looks like the value range is a bit squished. Still, it's a really nice painting and for sure an improvement over your student's one.
I like the tree on the right side, and the blue added between the branches. The photo has too much detail, and your eyes have no where to rest. I like how they changed the grass and rocks.
I'm gonna comment what I see just about everybody else comment.
You are awesome! Your ability to explain complex painting concepts simply is uplifting. Thank you good sir!
Thank you so much 😀
What canvas do you use
Looking at the comments below..Yes, he's beautiful, but I've found him to be one of the most helpful & informative teachers on RUclips. He's great!

This one is worth watching twice just because there is so much information.
That type of video in which you review someone's else work and recreate it is really great! Would love to see more of those :) Great work!
This is great having the two paintings as a visual to see the differences. Great lesson!
Such a useful video, walking through the problem solving, seeing two ways of approaching the same reference photo. Thank you!
Not just an amazing teacher but also a total SNACK! hahaha
Word!! Haha
calm down Janett!

Dude your arms are getting HUGE..right on...i think Rosemary and Co. makes light wieght brushes...lol
😂😂
Uh y
Nice!
Painting advice and a gun show!? I’m here for it! 🎨💪🏼
I was surprised how well he did with values. 90% of most pictures I think maybe right behind the composition are definitely value-driven
Your best landscape video yet. Thank you Chris.
you are an amazing teacher! thank you!
Thank you for so much information!
Your explanations are very helpful. Looking forward to watching more of your videos.
You are a great teacher
Thanks Chris, more videos like this 👍🏽
been watching these videos for a while now. they’ve helped my oil painting so much!!
Please stop being so fine, I can't concentrate on the lesson, I'm so serious 😋💕
So much good helpful tips great very accurate content thanks .Love painting landscapes
You explain things so well!!
Your videos never fail to disappoint man. You're so down to earth I feel like I know you in real life lol
"never fail to disappoint"?? Yes, I feel exactly the same way. They ALWAYS disappoint.
@@KpxUrz5745 so dont watch

Nice episode. You explain concepts very well.

Please provide us with the original image you used in this painting for download. Would that be possible?
I learned a lot!
I love your videos, this is very helpful! Thank you! :)
I like the student painting more than the Teacher's. The colors are better and there is much more life in it.
guess there's just no accounting for someone having undeveloped, primitive tastes.

@@KpxUrz5745 that's probably revealing rather more than you think about the state of the 20thC 'artworld'.
@@deegee8645 And I think it means that one cannot find good art teachers on youtube.
Super helpful video and well explained mate
Thanks a Lot!
You're welcome!
I'd prefer to look at Anne Hathaway but Chis is such a great teacher and artist, I'll put up with him😆
so great!!
Great information. Thank you.
goodness me, great stuff, thank you. ps to me, the student’s mountain looks like a giant lady sleeping

Hey aaaa our channel is growing 💗💗 great ❤️❤️
How to find a good reference for landscape.
Values excellent video
Good info!
Aerial perspective simplified...
Does value matter as much if you're painting on mushrooms?
No! Get in there with the technicolor!
