i really love the way you express yourself with much care for the exact word or expression. someone literate at last! delightful!
I'm so glad I found this channel! I don't paint all the tutorials, but I always feel inspired to paint by them and I look forward to watching the new ones. lol, then I go on a binge and watch 5+ more of the old ones just because I can't stop.....
Haha, I appreciate that!
Thank you for your super instruction. Thanks also for the closed captions. More people should do this!. Watching you work,and,listening to you as you paint is wonderful. Excellent video.
This is the first of your paintings that I've attempted and I'm so happy with my results! I'm a beginner......this is the fourth painting I've done in my life. Seriously. Thank you for producing short, straight to the point instructional videos. I appreciate that you do it with a limited palette which is easy on my budget and teaches me how to mix paint. My favorite painting channel!!
I'm so happy to hear it :)
i think he uses pēbēo paint its really cheap dont worry😊
Magnificent! I love how you they look like you spent hours doing in just 10 minutes! It's such a gift to share your talent with us! It gives inspiration to everyone who paints regardless of what level! Thanks for another great video!!
I have always painted watercolours ..and I couldn,t get away with acrylics, but after watching your ten minute paintings. I am going to try acrylics again, they are beautiful
I find acrylics to be a much more accessible/forgiving medium. I'm sure you'll love them!
Love these short videos. I am learning a lot. One thing that I think would be helpful is a second camera or just a mirror beside your easel to show your palette. This would give viewers a better idea of when and how much water you are adding.
Very beautiful and you're so full of knowledge. Thank you for sharing your talent.
Your 10-minute paintings are all so awesome !!!
Love your 10 mins paintings/tutorials. The field of flowers so beautiful !
Just wanted to let you know that I love this painting and tutorial. I have watched it at least 10 times over the last several months!!
You really do show how to create depth and up close in this short painting time. I have watched your other videos and for some reason I keep coming back to this one. It looks easy but shows so much. Would like to see you paint more like this one. Maybe some with houses/barns, fences, pond etc. Keep up the great tutorials.
Happy Painting! 🖌🎨💙💛💚
That is incredibly kind of you to say. Thank you, Pam. I've actually been sketching out a couple of farm/barn ideas. You should see something released on that subject fairly soon :)
I'm so excited by these beautiful little paintings you do. I love that you use just the basic primary colors, just makes doing them so approachable. Very happy that I finally came in and checked you out. Nice videos.. Thank you..
Thank you, Lori!
Looking beautiful.... Wonderful job thanks for share this beautiful video... 💕💕👌👌👌👌
AWESOME TOTALLY AWESOME.... I love following your work,almost as much as I love nature..Thanks you are the best instructor ever.
You literally answered every question that I've had abo it painting with acrylics. Thank You!
thank you for showing us how to reduce time in creating a small painting in a fraction of time - this could be a daily painting exercise
another awesome painting.. always enjoy watching your lessons, thank you for taking the time to share your wonderful talent.Cheers Mel..
I like when you add the extra bit at the end. Small finishing details definitely complete a painting.
I like your all paintings
LOVE THIS PAINTING!!! Can hardly wait to do one of my own.
I love your technique. it's alot easier to follow.
It's just spectacular , thank you for teaching
Thank you! I tried this tutorial and am very pleased with the results! Thanks for sharing!
Lovevyour tutorials and paintings, so inspirational x
Laine Hadlow how to draw people
What a beautiful painting - reminds me to some of the old masters of oil painting! It´s almost like a miracle how you can create such a picture in 10 minutes!
That is really kind, thank you, Silvia!
Thank you so much. I've been working with pastels, mostly pastel pencils because I love doing portraits, but I really am a newbie when it comes to art so want to try a new medium. I find your instruction to be extremely helpful, love the real time so that we can follow along with what you're doing. I am TERRIBLE at landscapes but want to learn more so will be trying this out myself instead of just watching LOL. I really would love to try acrylics with portraits - but that's a long way away to try that. Thanks again...so glad I found your channel.
thank hou very much, i like your trees , they are so realistic, will try today...
Beautiful! Thanks!!!
Thank you for yet another stunning nature painting! You make it look so simple and fun. I eagerly look forward towards your tutorials every Saturday. May I also suggest you to do a tutorial on Pretoria's Jacaranda-lined street, if possible. I am sure you will be able to bring it out beautifully :)
I wasn't aware of Pretoria's street until you mentioned it. It's quite beautiful. Thank you for the idea!
This one is my favorite so far!
Still need that green brush Ryan haha. Beautiful painting as usual thanks x
Love all your acrylic paintings, Ryan! I realize for obvious reasons, in order to stay within the 10 minute limit you put on yourself, you use an 8 x 10" canvas. Realistically, to recreate this painting, what size canvas would you use to get the best effects? Thanks so much for posting all your great tutorials. They've helped me tremendously and I'm sure many other people, as well.
The larger the canvas the more detail you can incorporate :) so it really all depends on how much time and effort you would like to put into the piece!
beautifull painting!!!
Ich mag deine Bilder sehr !👍👏
Thank you for the lesson.
Beautiful 👏👏👏
Thank you :)
Bellissimo!🌹
This is so awesome. I did have some trouble with the paint tho since the color couldn't dry quicly so i had to wait for the paint to dry and it took like 30 min total but i loved the result. i did this version bot with more mountains and no oak tree cuz' im not good at drawing trees.
i would be so happy if we used the same paint and this is one of my favorite paintings you have ever done and i learnd all lot and sorry fo being curios about the paint thing😊
I actually use Liquitex BASICS. The paints are listed in the description of the video :)
I will painting this, thank you for your video 👌
Fantastic! Can't wait to try this one :) Thank you for sharing
Very very nice, imho. Utmost thanks and blessings!
I like very nice 👌
I love these short tutorials. I'm a beginner and was very happy with my first try: "Sunset on the River". I have a question: I'm using a budget paint (Lukas) but the supplier only have RAW umber and sienna. Can I buy and use them instead of the BURNT variants? Thank you
I love the bright colors, beautiful!:)
You are a fantastic teacher. I just started painting and done few really good jobs, appreciated very well by my family and friends. One quick question- you use a lot of this "old square headed brush"- now where can I find it or make a brush like that. It sure is very practical!!
Good question! I would just take an extra square headed/flat headed brush and peel back the bristles. Or, with pressure push the head of the brush into a hard surface. Any process which disrupts the bristles should help :)
Thanks Ryan
Oh, is this a canvas board? Sorry for so many questions.
Just a fan of your work. Amazing!
wonderful 👍
Nice little painting , the change of the tree at the end was a good move! By the way: you said it only three times today :)
Thank you!
Thank you... love your paintings! Trying hard to learn prospective...
great sir....
Your videos are great! What do you use to outline the tree and horizon?
Now we can make this site life locations in a very easy way
Thanks Ryan!!! Always look forward to your paintings on Saturday. Do you use a fine point marker for your drawing? could you do a painting on a Japanese garden. Thanks
Thank you, Sue! I used a small sharpie to outline the tree here. It's fantastic because it doesn't dilute paint and it shows through thin layers (like the sky)
Thought you might like this brush for doing trees and bushes. You can load it with more than one color. Before you put any paint on it smoosh the bristles some. www.amazon.com/Donna-Dewberry-One-Stroke-Brush-1-Scruffy/dp/B0007TZY3C Let me know what you think.
Fantastic! Thanks. Another one to try to do if you don't mind. :)
Thank you!!
Nice! When you speak of primary blue, is that more of a cobalt blue? I have only seen primary blue a couple of times but see lots of other blues listed by various companies. Thanks Ryan!
I think by primary he refers to cyan blue
Thanks Sonia!
:)
"Primary Blue" is 'generally' a neutral blue. It isn't cold or warm. Pigments like cobalt/ultramarine/indanthrone are warm which means that they have varying amounts of purple. Cool blue pigments like cyan are cold and thus have elements of green. With that said, cobalt is fairly close to primary blue. For more information this is a good read www.janeblundellart.com/warm-blues.html
Thank you, appreciate your help and expertise.
Fab tutorials! Love this one. Need to ask what easel are you using? I like that the brackets aren't in the way of the canvas.
I'm using an old wobbly easel, it's not something I would recommend. However, if you're also using canvas boards (or panels) what I would recommend is taping the back of the canvas to your easel. This should keep it in place. P.s. Frogtape works best as it doesn't rip the back of the canvas boards.
Hi Ryan, I like your teaching a lot..had a small query ..do you use a pencil to draw the basic outline ?
brilliant!
Much appreciated!
Hi Ryan - I just love your work! One question - do you use a pencil of waterproof pen for your initial drawing? Thanks so much for your wonderful videos!
I use crayola pencil crayons to sketch my rough drafts because they don't dilute lighter paint pigments like graphite/charcoal. Then I use a fine tipped sharpie marker on the areas in the foreground that I want to see through thin layers of paint. I hope that helps!
Thanks so much, Ryan...that's what I needed to know. Hugs from Heather in Quebec
Es ist große Klasse
Wow.
What size canvas are you working with in this video?
I've watched one video after another since discovering you! Watching
your videos gave me the courage to actually put some paint on the canvas
for the first time. So far, I like what I'm seeing. I'm painting a
light-being (some may call this an angel) with a background of stars.
I'd love to see your interpretation of such a being.
Currently, I'm using the Liquitex Basic paints, but I'm thinking of purchasing the heavy body paints for added pigmentation and lightfastness. I'd also
love to figure out which medium I could mix those paints with in order to slow the drying time. Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Have you any experience with Joe's Prime Really Good Lightfast Acrylics? They are a really inexpensive, medium-grade paint but I'm hesitant to try them.
Also, when you're working on a larger piece, do you mix your paints fresh each time or do you store them? I'm wondering if a wet palette is a necessity. So far, I've been able to mix colors during later painting sessions which match the original, but it can be a little time consuming.
I'm really happy to hear that you're enjoying the creation of this first piece, it sounds quite interesting. Unfortunately I don't think I can help much here. I've never really had an affinity for additional mediums. When I want to extend the dry time I simply use water (or paint with oils.) In regards to mixing I always re-create my colors before each session. As you mentioned it can be time consuming but it also makes you a better painter. Again, I know this wasn't really what you were looking for but I do wish you the best of luck!
Thanks for responding. I'm just going to play around and learn from this experience. I ordered two different mediums to play with as well as various types of acrylics (heavy and soft body, paint markers, inks). If I ruin one canvas, it's okay! Acrylic skins have really piqued my interest, as has collage. Honestly, I think I want to try everything! LOL
I also plan on taking my laptop into my paint room (albeit a brave or stupid thing to do around paint and water!) to follow along with one of your videos. I love both the cherry blossom and moonlit stream paintings. Just beautiful! Thank you for sharing your talent as both an artist and instructor!
I really enjoyed this one! Thank you! I may even do it a second time, but replace the greens and yellows with reds and pinks
C'est jolie
🦊👏👏👏👏👏👏
Hi, Ryan! Just want you to know you have a big fan from Korea!!!😂 Just started painting as my new hobby last month and i have done 3 of your paintings already 😀 They're not as good as yours but I'm a beginner so...😊 By the way, may I ask how long you've been painting? I wanna be good at this as you are...😂😂😂
Thank you, Resa! I'm sure that you're doing a wonderful job. I started painting about a decade ago but with consistent practice I'm sure you will be able to paint these lessons perfectly within a year or so :)
10 years?! Wow! Thank you, Ryan! I needed that encouragement... ☺ Have a good night! 😘
Hi... Love from Pakistan.. Can you please tell me about your paint colours which type of colours you use and also about your paint brushes please help me
I have cad yellow med and ultramarine blue. Can i use those instead of the primary?
Both should work. However, you should be aware that ultramarine blue has a little bit of purple in it.
hi Ryan I just want to say thank you very much and hope you're doing well
also I just want to ask If you can draw a real face by acrylic painting in your next video
what brush you use for the leaves and flower, is it bristle?
he uses a square headed brush by artist loft that has frayed from many uses, not a brush you can buy, but one that has been well loved. ;-)
Sue Clark but is it bristle or nylon :v
Good question. I want to think it's a synthetic bristle because nylon would be too soft.
nice sire
Thank you!
I never can see the original picture, it would help me if you show it side by side, tnx
Where can I find the sketch for the Large Oak Tree
This lesson was unfortunately created prior to me creating traceables for the 10 minute tutorials
i think i know what paint you use ,you use "pēbēo " because i have watched allmost all your video's and the titanium white, burnt umber, burnt sienna,primary yellow, mars black, transparent vermillon , primary cyan is all the pēbēo paint and i have one at home too
