TRANQUIL PLEIN AIR Oil Painting || Journey down an Australian River | Painting, camping, happy days

- Today I'll be painting right on the edge of an Australian inland river. My subject will be the beautiful River Red Gums that line many of Australia's river systems. The River Gum can grow right down on the waters edge, making it a fantastic subject for painting tranquil water reflections. I will be using thick impasto oil paint and palette knifes, working direct from the subject (en plein air) with a large stretched, clear primed Belgian linen canvas.
Sit back and enjoy the process, while I create and explain my thoughts on technique, colour mixing, tonal values and composition as I go!

The light and reflections in the water are beautiful. Odile
I love painting reflections Odile!!!
a pure sound effect and uses of pallete is the best way to paint in your video which I like the most.
Thank you very much!
Super super super 💞🤗🤩💓🤗🤩
Gee I enjoy coming with you to watch you paint. I’ve just recently bought headphones so I can listen rather than read subtitles (while my husband watches TV). I love the music you’ve chosen as well. The only trouble is, this time, you made me laugh out loud so often - I just couldn’t hold it in. Have you thought to try to get your videos onto TV? Honestly you are really so entertaining.
From a painting perspective I really feel like I’m learning so much from you. Yet to see if I can put it into practice. I’m gradually buying paint. Your work is so very much alive. I could feel the wind whipping up that little bit of blue on the water towards the shore. Ahhh thank you once again. Hope loads of good things happen for you this coming year.
Hey thanks for the fantastic feedback Helen, Cheers :-)
fun and games, ouch for your finger, fabulous, great painting, wise words, I paint a lot like the first sunset picture at the front of the video, I love your technique , master of the pallet knife,
Hi Hazel, yes the fun of Plein Air painting! 🧑🎨 Sunset paintings, that’s great! Happy painting 🖼 🎨👍
Aussie landscape at its best........
Hey thanks 🎨🖼🧑🎨
I want to emigrate to Australia, it is so beautiful here and there are a lot of parrots in the trees, just a fairy tale.
Cheers mate, it is great here!!!
Excellent your will to live and your grace for painting!
Thank you very much!
Sorry to say you are awesome artist
Even I’m late commenting:):)
Wow. I can't believe how the drone shots show the vibrant blue and purple of the shadows.
Hi Lori, yes it's great isn't it!!!
Loving the feel of this painting. Your video work is awesome, and the drone footage just adds so much to beauty of Australian Outback. Happy Trails!
Thank you so much Deborah! Yes, the drone does do a great job of showing the feeling you get when in the outback 😀
G,Day Richard, Nice work again 👍👋.Go the power hey 🏉
Hey Cheers James!!!
Yet another great bush river scene... you certainly have the knack Richard! All very inspiring and full of generous instructions. The capture of bush serenity and colours are so tangible.
I have now started using a pallet knife to learn your technique....of course I have trouble ‘seeing’ what you do.
We are off on a painting trip to the Flinders next autumn to have a go!
Perhaps for your international audience, you might like to hint at your location?
Thanks again Richard.
Sounds great Ian, glad to have inspired you! Happy knife painting :-)
Incredible! Watching you pull the painting together is shear magic. Thanks for sharing.
Glad you enjoyed Rob! Cheers 🎨👍😊
Beautiful. I love your work. Love to watch how you make cup of tea and bread, real fire, beautiful nature. Just paradise.
Thanks Richard.
Thanks Alek, I just love being out there in the bush creating!!!
Wow that water reflection is the best you have done , parts of it really looks as if it is flowing on the canvas. Thank you, can’t wait to see your next painting adventure, bless you
I’m really pleased with the final results 🎨🎨🎨
It's a great video
👍 It is a luxurious and beautiful scenery~!
Hey thank you 🎨🖼👍🧑🎨
It’s always such a joy to watch you craft your works of art Richard, watching them take shape is truly wondrous, Nd not just that, it’s how you live & breathe art, it’s captured in every single one of your creations.. absolutely breathtaking...
You are very welcome, I really appreciate the feedback!
Love that you included the tarp blowing down. These are the kinds of things we run into and that's why I so enjoy your videos Richard....they are real. The painting is stellar, as usual. Your addition of phalo blue ("fatal blue" we call it. cause it's so very powerful) is making your paintings even better ( if that's even possible since they are always top notch). I cannot tell you how much I have learned from your videos. It always puts a smile on my face to see a notification that you've uploaded a new one. Paintings that large, in that time frame, at your level of quality...seem impossible. Well done.
G'day Curt, thanks mate! The tarp was pretty funny, I had to laugh myself!!! Really appreciate the feedback mate, cheers :-)
Wonderful and inspiring, thanks for sharing, love the whole experience including end result ;-). Makes me want to paint and visit Australia.
No worries, thanks Oliver! Cheers:-)
Wow Richard ! You could not have chosen a better word than Tranquil for this amazing video and a glorious painting which just blows me away ! I am so grateful to you for sharing these breathtaking views together with your painting skills ! Seeing the untouched nature at it’s purest is just phenomenal ! I also love your choice of background music which enhances and brings together the whole of your adventure ! The finished painting speaks for itself..... your have captured the tranquility and the blissful feeling of the place perfectly !
Cheers to you and sincere gratitude as always ! Warmest regards Lorraine 🤗👍🎨🥰
G'day Lorraine, thank you! I do really love being out there, amongst all the birds and nature. It calms the soul! :-)
with scenery how can it not be happy days!!! marvellous!
Spot on!!! Cheers :-)
Beautiful scenery and wonderful painting 👍🤘👌
Thank you so much 😀
It was a pleasure watching that. The end result is brilliant and I felt I was right there on the bank of the river. You handled that collapsed tarp so well, and it never put you off your stride. You bring such enthusiasm to us as the viewer and inspire us to get out and paint. Many thanks to you for the effort you put in for our enjoyment and learning. Take care out there.. thanks again Bill
Hi Bill, thanks mate! It was pretty funny when the tarp went over. Glad I'm inspiring you to paint! Happy Creating!!! :-)
Brilliant again! I love the colour palette on this one. Reflections are fantastic. Once again when you zoom in the excellent turns into the extraordinary. Well done and thank you Richard. Your videos are the highlight of my week. Keep safe. Jill, UK.
Thank you so much Jill! I'm very happy that you are really enjoying my videos 😀
Magnificent 👏🏻...Mr Richard you put a spelt on the nature,your painting like mirror...Thank you for sharing us your experience 👍🏻
You are very welcome
Yes Richard I was worrying about you.. but as always you come back with an amazing video. I love the instructions and commentary...😃
That’s great, glad you enjoyed it Tim!!!🎨😊👍
Hey Richard! Glad to see you out and about again! I knew plein air painting could be insightful and exciting - but I never knew it could be so dangerous (Tarp & painting knife)! I really appreciate your in depth explanations of color and temperature choices in this video! I'm pretty much stuck in the studio right now, but I feel the freedom and sunlight in your videos. Thankfully, the wind doesn't blow my easel over indoors! Ha! Keep at it brother! There are a bunch of us out here cheering you on...
Hey Jim, thanks mate! I'll keep on doing what I love to do, which is being out bush painting!!! Appreciate the comments, thanks!
Thank You, Richard! Great picture and video too.
Glad you enjoyed it, thanks!
great job; I thoroughly enjoyed watching you create the scene.
Glad you enjoyed it Joan!
Beautifully captured! Those reflections are soft as silk. Thank you so much!
Glad you enjoyed it Susan!
Excellent 👍 as usual RME
Thanks Jeff!!!
Magnifique Richard! 👍👍👍 Francis Boulenger
Hey thanks!!!
Once again, a great painting with the wonderful inspiration of the outback that you capture so well time and again - well done Richard and like so many others I really look forward to your videos. Cheers
Thanks Clive, I really appreciate you letting me know 🎨🧑🎨👍
Love this one , beautiful handling of the water....great job adjusting to the changing sun and it came out looking amazing!
Hey thanks mate, I’m really enjoying the water reflections in rivers at the moment! Yes, changing light can make it difficult, but also gives you more options for how you what to finish the painting 🧑🎨 🎨🖼Thanks and happy PleinAir!!!
@@richardmusgrave-evans9886 Ha..yeah you shifted gears with the light cool as a cucumber...you have a very cool mobile studio there, nice job with that. Keep up the great plein air paintings!
Wonderful painting, but mostly I just wanted to say how much I liked the opening scene with the orange sky and river reflection. It looked awesome, but I suspect it's not the sort of scene that lasts long enough to paint outside the studio.
Thanks Conrad, that was an extraordinary light the morning of the painting!
oh how i wish i could be there with you , but i have never been out of the usa, and right now it looks like i probably won't its so beautifil there
Hey thanks Jackie, It is beautiful out here! Stay safe, Cheers :-)
लई भारी 👌👌👌👌🙏🙏🙏💐🌹
आपका बहुत बहुत धन्यवाद
aapaka bahut bahut dhanyavaad
My Genius!!! Bravo!!! 🤩
Hey thanks 😊
Muy Bueno..desde Spain
Hola, muchas gracias
Wonderful! Thanks!
Thank you too!
With your drone I noticed the shadows of the trees really reflect the blue sky like jewels- have you noticed that?
Yes it great! Beautiful colours 👍🎨
Hi Richard, great to see you again enjoying yourself. Which river is that? Are you still in SA? The location looks and sounds heavenly. God bless you that you can go out to such gorgeous locations.
I’m still stuck in Canberra drawing and painting here at home between marking maths exams for the university. You are getting really good with your drone, great shots from above. Thank you :o)
Hi Patricia, thank you! Yes I’m in SA just off the Murray! Really appreciate your comments 🎨👍😊
Really beaut, I’m wondering what material you use as a pallet and what you do with the left over paint after you finish? I watch you ladle the paint out of the tin, and can’t help comparing it my own less generous method. I use the same brand but from a small tube, perhaps I need to adopt a more robust approach, free things up so to speak. I very much like your style of getting the paint on the canvas and worrying about detail later. Thanks looking forward to the next one, regards from
Thanks Alan! I use 5mm marine plywood for my palette. Any leftover clean paint I put back in the tin before it sets. You can also store unclean paint in some kitchen cling wrap! Thanks again, cheers buddy :-)
Out of curiosity, has Australia always been really dry like in your videos? I always pictured it a little differently.
There has been a drought in central Australia 🇦🇺
@@richardmusgrave-evans9886 thanks for replying! Your videos are the best btw.
J. Eliot Mason Much appreciated 🎨👍😊
Richard, any crocodiles in that river?
No, nothing anywhere near here! Cheers:)
Ever sketch from the canoe?
I’ve recently been thinking about painting from the canoe for something different!
had to laugh!!! shader? yap. it happens
Lol, yes!!!
O my god did you hurt ?
All okay!!! :-)
Your camera angle makes it too difficult to see what’s going on....
Trying to show the background (my subject) and the painting in one shot!
RICHARD MUSGRAVE-EVANS Yes I thought that...personally I would rather a picture if need be ....then we can see the painting better...just one guys opinion.....
