This is a lovely painting and very evocative of the fens. Big, brooding skies, earthy colours and ever so slightly menacing. But there’s quite a lot of brightness as well. Beautiful. And I know this artist not by name but definitely his style.

A wonderful video Steven. I'm looking forward to seeing more. Best wishes & I hope life is spoiling you. 🙏

Hello Steve, I enjoyed you bold demo. Breathtaking stuff. I had to smile at your palette. I thought Charles Evans palette was a mess but yours is pretty close if not more so. I wish I could be more relaxed about my painting and tools as you are. Quite a good lesson learnt there. Thank You.

Thanks John, Very kind of you, perplexes me when i see people scrubbing away cleaning their palettes after completing a piece of work and insist on using clean water for mixes. Thanks again for your kind comments, best regards, Steve

I thought I ran my brushes ragged. haha Wow! Beautiful and inspirational. Totally making me rethink my paint application and skies. Thanks for this.

Thanks very much Jared, Glad you enjoyed the video

I would very much like to know what brand of paints and paper you use . Thanks for this.

[@stevenrigby453]

Hi Momchil, I use Winsor and newton artists quality paints, i only use 4 or 5 colours though, Ultramarine Blue, Cobalt Blue, Yellow ochre and Brown madder. I'll add other colours every now and then (a bright yellow when doing a landscape) etc but i use these 4 in every painting i do and possibly add a touch of white at the end. the paper i always use is Saunders rough paper, hope this helps, Steve

Filming at times is a bit blurry I dont know if seago done a scrub by type style at least it doesn't look like it to me

Hi, This was was one of the 1st ones videos i did, trying to get the set up right. The Seago reference is more aimed at the sort of scene from one of my painting trips, thanks for the comment,
