Totally support the challenge you set. Our school art tutor started to take us into the local mountains where he gave us three restrictions; an hour, a size 10 flat as the only brush and a panel about 12” x 18”. Our first visit was messy, splodgy. Later visits the efficiency kicked in and weeks later our whole painting capability had been improved. Every so often I go out and play those rules from 30yrs ago & it is always a boost - and fun!
This is a good demonstration of the problems with value that can happen when painting en plain air with out an umbrella to shade the painting and pallet, and a brim to shade the eyes. Adding these tools to your kit will make nailing the values right away much easier so time isn’t waisted repainting objects over and over until the values work. I find that a blank white canvas under the shade of an umbrella makes toning a canvas superfluous. I’m really loving your plain air paintings and the painterliness you achieved while working fast and intuitively. The energy of it shows in the brush strokes.
I'm not sure I'll ever be comfortable with a stark white canvas. But, I take your comments about some of the aspects of finding shade and shading the palette. These were very rough, and not in the ideal circumstances, still... good fun getting out there and getting stuck into it.
My first real drawing class in college was life drawing class. Exercises were time limited and often defined by gesture.gesture which is foundation of the composition. Thanks for offering your work.
Best things I've learned from painting en plein air is: speed and accurate colors. Plein air painting can be one of the most frustrating things an artist can do as you mention, the colors CONSTANTLY change so I find myself going from by cool colors of blues and greens to the warm colors of yellow and red and this can change in seconds. Also, I've had wind blow my easel and canvas down, squirrels stand on my pallet, knee-deep in paint, and people chase me off their land, that I didn't know was private land. In short, I'm not a fan of plein air painting but do believe artists should give in a few tries.
You are no doubt, the most generous mama big-hearted, unselfish, artist I've ever come across! God bless your little big heart! And your talent, and your career! And in addition, you are a brilliant painter.!!! Your work it's absolutely divine! Keep them coming!!!
Wellcome back Andrew...I certainly miss you. I work on Plain Air all the time for the last year and I notice that my interested shift from details (in the studio) to the effect of light (plain air). And I happier with the learning process of that...
Andrew. I nearly fell off my seat yesterday. I watched your rock canyon landscape painting using the projector in the wall. You just changed my business buddy. So grateful. My wife isn’t happy though. Now I’m cruising Amazon for a projector.
I forgot to mention-- Great Video, really helps knowing how you approach a landscape and your attempts to get loose. Talking about pigments and brushes really helps for us wannabes!
Andrew, your painting is always wonderful, but I wanted to compliment you on the technical aspects of this video. It looks like a mountain of work! Multiple camera angles outside; Canvas shots, palette shots, contextual shots, drone footage, and really nice B Roll. Great editing and narration as usual. Your other Plein Air videos had a lot of these elements, but I think they really came together here.
“The more you do it, the better it gets.” “If we stick with it, it will get better.” Thank you so much... inspired me the most... Always watching your videos everyday...
Last time I drew a picture, and took a picture I had many people stop to see what I was doing. I am not an artist just do it for me. I was glad I took the picture to capture the light. I finished this at home. I actually had a man tell me I was not good, but others told me they were so interested.
So glad you're back! I learned new techniques from this video and look forward to more. Living in the Pacific Northwest of Washington State, USA, there so many awesome landscapes, seascapes and animals!. And being retired there are opportunities to get outside...when it stops raining! En Plein Air, here I come!
Thank you for your awesome videos! Same story - I was stuck in the studio teaching art for years, and after I moved to Colorado and started a studio on a kitchen table, painting outdoors became a sip of fresh air. Yes, painting en Plein air demands speed and boldness. I wish I could make super awesome vids like you, but I started documenting with my phone and at some point I may cut out more time and money for video production. Thank you for inspiration!
New Zealand were I live is such a great place to paint out doors your video will help me to get out side and as they say '' Just do it '' thanks Andrew
What a gorgeous place. ALL THAT GREEN! I completely enjoyed your Plein Air experiments. Your "sky first" was an eye opener for me as I usually start with all my shadows. I can't wait to get outside and try sky and far background first.
Fabulous video Andrew,, I paint plein air every week , will never be any good at it but just love the experience , being out in nature and chatting to people walking past me here in the uk in Constable country Dedham and Flatford and in my home town of Frinton by the sea 👍👍
last time david cutted his hair when he visited to your studio, and now you have cutted your hair ... its the best landscape tutorial on youtube thank you for this valuable video . love from India
I share that wanting to loosen up work as I also tend towards over-working things in the studio, setting tight time and media constraints is a good exercise, helpful video. Thank you. I like your work.
Sometimes I wonder how artist with the most depth can bring a simple scene or object into the canvas, and make it as a wonderful beautiful art piece. Now, I see you, and It all looks so simple and easy to you. Yet i am an ordinary person with some interesting in art. Your theory somehow confused me a little. And at most, i am with some questions, and wish to have some real answers, but i can tell it's also in- approachable as my artist dream. lucky for all the people who has talent like you. Bless!
I love doing desert scenes by painting in the mountains, sand, rocks and cacti using my memory for colors as they lead up to sunrise or sunset. Next day I'm all set up for the light and bham, you attack the painting by adding light, shadows and the many colors of the sunrise or sunset. It is fun and kinda wild as you still only have 30 minutes at the most to apply the finishing touches. thanks for the fantastic videos!
A visual experience for me!your real location and the camera replay of the real horse moving at the side of the canvas and your commentary on what your doing real treat!thanks for the painting experience outdoors!
This was so incredibly helpful. I've tried plen air painting a couple of times and now realize I was going about it all wrong. I can get bogged down with details much too easily. This is one of the best tutorials I've seen on plen air. I'm sure I'll refer to it again. Thank you! I enjoy all your work.
I have missed your work & videos so much. I kept coming back to your channel to see if I had missed anything new. I not only love your work, but thoroughly enjoy your narrative style and the spiritual and personal character of your presentation. You impart operationally-valuable information, but you always keep the 'human' element present in your delivery to confess unpleasant challenges in working a piece as well as surprising and joyful revelations that also occur. Thank you so very much. I've missed your work and am glad you're back.
Hi Andrew! En Plein Air is difficult for me in that I expect everything to look like a masterpiece out in the field right then and there. You really opened my eyes in this video to see that the objective is to witness the natural light and colors that just don't come across in one dimensional photographs and indicate that in our paintings. Then our reference pics are used to finish up later instead of wanting to burn the canvas in disgust. I appreciate your teaching style - I am far from a professional, but you talk to me like an equal. You are my most favorite artist! Thank you!!
Too fun as well as a lot of work, patience and skill. Good knowing that one needs to cover ground quickly. Loved knowing what your challenges are when out doors.
As fantastic as your work is, it is so nice to not be bombarded with content every day! You show tremendous balance, and the breaks are a relief in that I feel that you value your time and the time of your subscribers. When the videos do come, you succinctly and graciously share your experiences, talent, and techniques. Thank you for your time and generosity!
Welcome to your new home, wisdom states it takes a couple years to totally get settled. Love watching your videos, so much knowledge, you are definitely known as a master painter, look forward to future programs ~
Glad you're back Andrew. I constantly get little bits from what you say and do that are helping me get more out of my own work. I don't have a lot of contact with other artists and its important to learn from what others are doing. Never stop learning. Never stop doing. Have a great day from Niagara.
How so very generous this is... I am amazed by the amount of work you have put in a single video. Very inspiring and informative as always. Thanks a thousand times for sharing.
Thank for God that you are alive, I missed your lessons and videos, I hope not to disappear again, if you could make a video of the way to painting and mix colors such as gold color and drawing snow. Keep going💪
Kudos to you Andrew for taking your studio into the field for direct observation and a limited time. I remember my first year of plein air painting, I was floundering around, what with the wind, clouds, moving light, bugs, dogs, snow and rain (sometimes) and of course, lookie-loos! But, after that first season, it slowly became normal, so that learning to make (and trust) your decisions became second nature. Now when I paint in the studio, it's so much easier, and I can trust my values and atmospheric perspective since I learned it straight from the source! Cheers!!
So glad you’re back Andrew. I learn a lot from your videos. Everything from brushes, palettes to a painting techniques. I experience the same with studio painting, get so tight and picky. Recently I painted with a Russian Plein Air group, Tavrida in the Crimea. The mandate was two paintings a day, 20 x 24 inches. You learn to lay down the paint quickly! It was an awesome challenge.
Yes! Plein Air boot camp. Breakfast at 8, scouting out locations by 9. Break for lunch at 11:30. A few hours to relax and then back in the field by 4pm. Paint til 7:30pm. A couple of times in the rain (running paint, creates some interesting textures). I still hear Alexander Tyunkin, “Mariette, Big Brush, Finish!” Russians are driven painters.
so glad to have you back! You are a very generous artist to find time and patience to share and teach newbies like me. Thanks again. I find your work stunning
HI , Andrew ; thank you again so much to share your tutorial with us , you are a great teacher , and I Thank you for this moment absolutely stunning ; I am one of your Fan Guy , from st-hubert , south shore of Montréal , Québec ;
Love this looser style! Love your studio style which is perfect but this is you!!!! Yah!!!! You are an amazing teacher and I thank you so much for helping me on my journey. Linda R
I can do that 😃 Many thanks 🌹I find oil and acrylic’s much easier to make good paintings but watercolour difficult. So, I am 6 months into an intense watercolour course and I never new there was so much to learn - but I love it for now I have already created 3 very good watercolour paintings that people like and give me good critic. So, thank you for your tutorials which have helped me to “loosen up & let go” .
So great to see you again Andrew. The variation in your videos and painting approaches are no doubt inspiring a while bunch of people, including me. Can't thank you enough.
Its amazing to paint outside. Once you've been there this place will always belong to you. Lovely. And this light was amazing, too bad it appeared so rarely. :)
Love, love, LOVE your work. I've traveled in this region of New Zealand many years ago and can only imagine how wonderful it would be to return and do what you are doing. Blessings -- and THANK YOU for your videos.
Living in the Pacific NW, I can completely understand the challenges with overcast and low light with shifting light. I have been doing sketching and not painting for awhile. This is motivating me to find some outdoors to paint. Thanks! :)
Nice to see you back and imparting your knowledge Andrew! You are bang on about the tendency to get to "tight" and precious in the studio when painting. I certainly catch myself falling into that. Thanks for the tips mate!
Thank you so much. The way you share what you paint and how you paint is fantastic.I think you are going to really help me with my difficult change from computer art to en plein air. Thanks again-this was a FANTASTIC video.Love all that you do.
Sure hope you are doing ok over there in scary New Zealand. I know it bad in Australia and honestly have heard even less about NZ. If you don’t post soon we will need proof of life!!
Really nice painting, a huge 16x20 en plein air, bravo! Scene reminds me of some areas of California north of San Francisco, in spring time, when all is green and lush. I'm living in the deserts of Arizona now, very different, but all landscapes have their lovely features for paintings!
I enjoyed seeing your en plein air painting process. Your narrative with the video are excellent. I'm delighted to see your use of large canvas instead of 5x7 or 8x10s. I have found small canvases restrictive. Thank you for sharing your work. I look forward to future inspirations.
Glad you're back Andrew. Haven't found any other art tutorials that are as inspiring and enthusiastic as yours (although I have been looking) so couldn't wait to watch your latest video! It's good to see what you are actually painting while you paint (as with the barn painting) so we can see why your colour choices make sense. Many thanks!
Welcome back Andrew! You are so talented both with your paintings and your videos. I am glad that you have so many commissions but also happy that you are getting back to teaching and inspiring us.
I like this video a lot! As a plein air painter it is so important to paint on larger canvas to open yourself up, not get caught up in details, and don’t think so much and just let the painting flow. I plan on making a video on this subject soon. Keep tearing it up Andrew and let me know if you’re ever in LA and I’ll show you some great painting spots.

So great to have you back - you aways make me want to get the brushes out and get going. So happy your commission is going well
Awesome! I’ve shared this on the Nz plein air group on Facebook.

That transition from the painting to drone shot at the end was money!
Happy you are back, but even happier you nurtured your artistic soul.
So good to have you back with us!!!!!!! Another awesome video!!!
Really reminds me of some of Hopper’s work. Some fabulous tips, many thanks
Good to see you again andrew.🤘🎨
Welcome back Andrew! Thanks for the inspiration and advise! Thumbs up!
Thank for God that you are alive, I missed your lessons and videos, I hope not to disappear again, if you could make a video of the way to painting and mix colors such as gold color and drawing snow. Keep going💪
I have a still life video coming out later in the year with some gold shiny objects. How's that?
Andrew Tischler it's cool, I will waiting
You're really lucky to live in New Zealand and I am really lucky to watch you living in New Zealand!

Hi Andrew. Great to see a plein air painting (windy day)... love the loose quick strokes. Thanks for another amazing video!
Excellent ! 👍 👍 👍
Bravo et merci pour ce bon moment 🌞🌞🌞
Hi Andrew welcome back, we missed you.
Great to have you back Andrew. I am a BIG fan of your portrait work, not that I don't appreciate all of your beautiful landscape paintings.
DASHING! I got inspired to paint outside.
So inspirational. Can’t wait to get out in some warmer weather. Thank you for sharing info.
Its Such a pleasure to see you work, and explain with simplicity... thank you. you are an inspiration....
Agreed, another great video and I always learn something every time I watch. Nice Pochade Box!
Living in the Pacific NW, I can completely understand the challenges with overcast and low light with shifting light. I have been doing sketching and not painting for awhile. This is motivating me to find some outdoors to paint. Thanks! :)
Thank you Andrew. Missed your videos.
I LIVE IN NEW ZEALAND and I love your work :)
Nice to see you back and imparting your knowledge Andrew! You are bang on about the tendency to get to "tight" and precious in the studio when painting. I certainly catch myself falling into that. Thanks for the tips mate!
Thank you so much. The way you share what you paint and how you paint is fantastic.I think you are going to really help me with my difficult change from computer art to en plein air. Thanks again-this was a FANTASTIC video.Love all that you do.
Thank you, thank you!!!Beautiful video, we missed you as you can see!Looking forward for the next ones!!!
Sure hope you are doing ok over there in scary New Zealand. I know it bad in Australia and honestly have heard even less about NZ. If you don’t post soon we will need proof of life!!
Really nice painting, a huge 16x20 en plein air, bravo! Scene reminds me of some areas of California north of San Francisco, in spring time, when all is green and lush. I'm living in the deserts of Arizona now, very different, but all landscapes have their lovely features for paintings!
So good to have you back Andrew and what a fantastic return!! :-)
Now, that was fun to watch! I may try this way of doing things. Thanke you!!!
Great. Good to see you back Andrew looking forward to more.
thanks so much for all the effort to record and edit all these videos so we can see the joys and difficulties of plein air painting. Bless you 😊
It's so awesome to see you back, Andrew. I love seeing you paint, and I look forward to future videos. Happy painting!
Excellent teacher thank you . I’m going out tomorrow after working from reference material studio work so you helped inspire me
I enjoyed seeing your en plein air painting process. Your narrative with the video are excellent. I'm delighted to see your use of large canvas instead of 5x7 or 8x10s. I have found small canvases restrictive. Thank you for sharing your work. I look forward to future inspirations.
what a beautiful tree above your hand.
Yes finally thank you Andrew
Your my new favorite teacher 🤗
Glad you're back Andrew. Haven't found any other art tutorials that are as inspiring and enthusiastic as yours (although I have been looking) so couldn't wait to watch your latest video! It's good to see what you are actually painting while you paint (as with the barn painting) so we can see why your colour choices make sense. Many thanks!
Andrew's colour mixing is very great. more video, pls
Now, to paint outdoors. Loosen up and enjoy the weather hoping it won't rain. Here in the mountains of Mexico is the rainy season. Cheers!
Welcome back Andrew! You are so talented both with your paintings and your videos. I am glad that you have so many commissions but also happy that you are getting back to teaching and inspiring us.
I like this video a lot! As a plein air painter it is so important to paint on larger canvas to open yourself up, not get caught up in details, and don’t think so much and just let the painting flow. I plan on making a video on this subject soon. Keep tearing it up Andrew and let me know if you’re ever in LA and I’ll show you some great painting spots.
