Made a few tweaks to my plein air painting setup for oil and gouache. My posture is bad enough from sitting at a computer, so time to switch back from lap painting to standing with a tripod!

Plein Air Timelapse Oct 2020
มุมมอง 1.6K3 ปีที่แล้ว
Hi! This is Judd Mercer and here is a timelapse of a recent gouache painting I did near Morrison, Colorado. Total painting time was one hour. I'm using Holbein gouches, Princeton Elite brushes and a Strathmore toned sketchbook.
Just beautiful work. Your brushstrokes are wonderfully placed and your understanding of colour and light is masterful! ❤
I love Holbein gouache and I’ve been very tempted to buy this Iridori autumn set but I’ve heard that this line is not lightfast, which has put me off. Thoughts?
“Oh man! That’s a spicy meatball!” Lol😂 Turned out so good!
Love this. Curious what donyoubuse for your initial drawing?
Hey Judd, great thoughts all around...so agree with in person and immersion. Love the Oragami (?) duck! I practice with styrafoam white geometrics but would love to expand so I'm wondering where I could get my own duck :0) Thanks for sharing your knowledge...you are a great painter and I can tell your also a great teacher.
Great stuff!
Perspective to tower is way. Out. All good artists get these basics correct. You needto check this onthe basic drawing. Good luck.
Great insight Judd, brilliant painting. Thanks for posting, more please!!
This is such a rich video. Thank you for sharing your world, I am always inspired and learn from your voice over.
I love how much space you have on your palette to mix paint! Great job on your plein air piece!
That was fun, Judd.( For watercolor I'd have to play it backwards)
Commentary as you were painting was so great! Lots of helpful information regarding all your choices while painting and reasoning behind them. Thanks!!
Excellent demo! I liked your tips on painting trees, simplifying people and capturing the light and shadow. Also simplification of all the architectural details. The addition of blue on the road really tied it all together. Thanks for a great demo!
🔥🔥🔥
Really enjoyed watching the process. It inspired me to try your method. Are you using tube or cakes?
Wow! I love how many colors are in the white, and the people are done with such economical strokes!
Nice work! Thanks for the demo. 😊
What do you use to weigh down the tripod ? It seems to lacks a hook at the base of the head - Is your tripod 21 inches long when closed? Thanks- always inspiring info
Hi, it will go to 36" I think. I don't usually weigh it down with anything, usually I'm sitting :)
I really want to take your workshop but I hope this is not like those Schoolism courses with Nathan Fowkes where you pay £980 and didnt learn anything.
Yowza! Tell you what, if you give one a try and don't find it valuable, I'll refund you 100%
@@juddmercer_artthanks for the reply but I found a great teacher master her name is Lena Rivo. She is a one of a kind teacher. Totoally different from those schoolism instructor.
What pencil do you use? Love your channel!
I don't actually know...I'm not too picky so whatever is orange-y!
Love this one. Thanks for your insights, Judd!
Glad it was helpful!
Just found a copy of your book. Would love to see more Watercolors. Will definitely sign up for your new landscape storytelling class this month. Very best regards 👍
Awesome, thank you!
You could buy some cube magnets and place those near the hinge, so you don't need the piece of wood to hold up the tray anymore. Nice setup!
That's a great idea! Add more magnets to the collection
So nice Judd! What happened to the all that will burn videos?!? I used to love watching your process for those. I can’t find them anywhere now.
I took them down for...retooling. We'll see if they come back :)
So, today about goals. Goals are important! The End 😅
TLDR :)
amazing paintings dude, grab yourself a decent mic it'll up your production quite a bit
Thanks, working on improving!
You’ve created such an informative video! I am learning so much about color mixing since i can see the palette and you mix. Your voice over adds even more information. … And you included the image you are painting. Really well done. I just discovered you and your art. inspiring!
Glad it was helpful!
Amazing! Have just come across your channel and I love your artworks, they are so alive. Thank you for the inspiration!
Thanks so much!
Hello Judd I stumbled upon your work via Instagram and was really amazed by it, and also discovered your YT channel and I'm grateful for the quality of your work and all this content. I really hope you'll do the same kind of "retrospective" for your 2023 paintings as well. Anyways, thank you for the inspiration and the knowledge sharing. Very inspirational 😉 Take care and keep it up ! Cheers, Fabrizio
Thanks, that's an interesting idea. Will consider if I actually have enough to share :)
there is an artist and YTer (Chelsea Lang) who has a video on how she uses removable Command hooks (on her Edge Easel) to attach metal 5x5" pieces of metal. She also explains how she got 40ish pieces at a metal shop. I love your studio!!! and can't beat the Rocky Mtns!
Ahh, that's a great idea!
Phantastic, love it
Gorgeous painting
Watching this makes me want to paint outside in nature too! You have a really positive and calming vibe and it's great listening to your thoughts while painting. Real-time art videos like this are generally so fun to watch! And btw great painting as always. :o)
Thanks, a new one of London is out!
I didn’t know you had a channel on here! Can’t wait to watch your videos. Beautiful work as always Judd!
many good ideas for studio and plein air, thank you and wishing you continued success with your impressive art and video work.
by far the BEST studio tour I've ever watched ! Thank you!
Looking forward to seeing your demo for the SDWS on Sunday and your workshop in San Diego in March!
Great set up, and great art work, I can see your a fan of Chris guest, lov his work
Oh yes! His expressive brushwork is definitely a benchmark for me ;)
wow. that's kind of professional studio for few painters :) are you a pofessional painter or self taught?
Self-taught! :)
love this longer form type of video and it's so helpful to hear your thoughts while you're making decisions!
I'm so glad! Thanks for stopping by :)
wow, gorgeous!
Thank you! 😊
I like the painting. If I had such a brush to paint plein-air I couldn't paint with sunlights because of the too shiningmetal creating reflections here and there. I don't know how you managed that
Not sure, just kind of get used to it I suppose ;)
Thank’s for the demo ❤👍👍👍
No problem! Thanks for the comment :)
"Potent Indigo" sounds like an indie band lol
:D
Relaxing river, good tips and...ninja painting...well i subscribed 😂
What more could you want? ;)
Omigosh that tilted collapsible water cup tip is SO GOOD I don't know why I never thought to do that with mine!
Great tip about the collapsible cup.
