It has been joyous watching you paint every leaf, stick, rock blade of grass, my my you're amazing! Your ability to make your comments useful and informative; with patience I will paint a tree.
I absolutely love your videos. I was taught to not paint in that much detail and it frustrated me because that is how I saw the world. I gave up landscapes and began painting still life and wildlife. You have inspired me to give landscapes another try. Thanks for breaking an old paradigm! I was hoping to see you demonstrate one of your wonderful cityscapes. Thanks! Keep up the good work.
I watched all your posted videos. I really learnt a lot from your techniques. Thanks so much. You're the only master that shares your knowledge to others. Hope you can go on. Awaiting for the next masterpiece. Regards from Brazil.
I too like Michael's work, however this is not really a "how to" video. A how to would get into clouds shapes, color palette, brushes and all that. Not a criticism, just an observation.
I understand your viewpoint Mr. Gent. I believe a careful student, following every video Michael has made, or will make, will not need a traditional style "How To". Many of those other instructors have a pomposity I find unbearable. Not so with M.J. Smith.
When watching the previous tutorial, whilst using W/S Griffin Alkyds, your voice was tense... LOL. In this video it was obvious what a pleasure you were having with traditional oil. Just maybe people need to wait a tick longer to get their paintings if it is the difference between you enjoying the work...or you just working. Cheers! Thou art an inspiration to so many people.
May I suggest Copal Painting Medium by Grumbacher, it cuts the drying time drastically, and flows very well! Excellent for Glazing as well! Beautiful work!
Michael; I too am a lazy man when it comes to brush cleaning. I also have done a bit of diesel mechanic work in my day... How does this tie together? A nice tub of cream lanolin hand cleaner ( I use Go-Jo lemon scent) for leaving your used oil brushes in until you can get around to working the pigments out. Lanolin is nice on the brush fibers AND the cleaner washes out with water! Smooth, speedy and inexpensive brush care. Oh... it is good at getting paint off your hands too.
THANK you for your videos and tutorials... i love the style and method. will you tell us what colours are you using for the mountains? the sky etc... colours in your palette: white, ultramarine blue and....???
Silly question. Is there a reason, other than personal preference, that you want to make sure all of the acrylic is covered with oil? I've started using acrylics for blocking in and didn't know if I needed to make sure it was all covered completely. Awesome sky work, as usual!
ya lo dije, me gusta tu técnica. Una pregunta sobre que tabla pones la pintura y si esta sellada, pregunto porque yo ocupo de papel y es mucho el gasto y me gusta dejar sobre la mesa, en la mano la paleta me cansa. Genio hermoso espero me conteste Bendiciones
Thank you Michael for your explanations I am registered to your site, I impatiently await the translation into French of your videos thank you very much
Michael what do you think of some painters who use black walls and shadow boxes.or is glare not a problem with land scapes? Any one have a answer. Help with a answer please.

Thanks Michael. This is exactly the type of 'how to' I've been looking for, for painting clouds! I could watch you painting, all day.

add a few drops of siccative to ur liquin or turps and your paint will dry a lot quicker,then u can carry on using surperier oil paints.
I would be interested in seeing how you handle the road and stone wall...thank you for the time you spend on these very informative videos

Well done! you paint with such confidence, how long have you been doing this? formal training? you obviously have a natural gift!

VERY NICE CONGRATULATIONS
muito bom !
I'm new at this. So you block with acrylic and paint with oils? Is this how you normally work? Love your work by the way and attention to detail.
Silly question. Is there a reason, other than personal preference, that you want to make sure all of the acrylic is covered with oil? I've started using acrylics for blocking in and didn't know if I needed to make sure it was all covered completely. Awesome sky work, as usual!
I had the same question, I guess you have to pay to get an answer.
Who is the singer? Beautiful music to painting!
How about a Great Blue Heron on a lake of Lilly Pads?
I was wondering you could talk more about the blending of what colors you used on the clouds

Hello Michael, thanks for this tutorial. Do you personally take the photos you use as model for your paintings?
Thank you Michael for your explanations I am registered to your site, I impatiently await the translation into French of your videos thank you very much
Michael, what colours did you use for the shadows on the clouds?
Can you do the same thing with acrylics?
Do you ever use a projector ? If so what kind ???
Michael what do you think of some painters who use black walls and shadow boxes.or is glare not a problem with land scapes? Any one have a answer. Help with a answer please.
Is over blending not a problem with water?
In the beginning when painting the lower left sky, you were talking about the strong blue. Was that pthalo blue? Thanks.
Thanks. You use cerulean quite a bit. To me it looks similar to a lighter pthalo blue and natural for sky color.
Did you also get your blending brush at Rosemary & Co.?
I am very impatiently waiting for the patreon
Can you please tell me what brush you are using to paint these clouds sir?
underpaint was done in acrylic??
Que colores son los que usas
What colors do you have on your palette in this video?
Bonjour, dommage qu'on ai pas de texte en français.
Colors pallette ??
On an iOS 13.3 iPad, where do I find the downloaded file ?
What a Number that you used for the sky please
draw a black horse please x
