    Excellent video! Thank you for keeping the camera solely on Leon as he paints, with just those few superimposed paintings for cross reference. Being able to clearly see the artist’s field set-up, watch him work, and hear his accompanying commentary is the whole reason for tuning in. This was a very focused presentation with a ton of great insights. I’ll be watching this one multiple times!

    Leon is wonderful local Mandurah artist who always does amazing art. He only lives around the corner from me so I do see him painting around town every now and then.
    Although his style of making art is very different from my own digital abstractions, I have to say, I very much admire and appreciate the great skill and quality of his work.
    His success is greatly deserved!......and it’s nice to see a talented artist recognised and rewarded for all their hard work!
    Cheers😁🖖

    The West Australian shows are so good, I am in Busselton at the moment and watched the previous artist Steve Vigors and was impressed but Leon Holmes is so young and so successful I am amazed, The outdoor demonstration took my breath away and the way he converted those initial brush strokes into a beautiful painting was a joy to watch. I shall think about this on my way back to Perth next week as I pass by Mandurah.

My pallet is pretty basic with a warm and cool if the 3 primaries, I do carry a little as I like to call the jewelry which can always ad that extra sparkle. These would be - cobalt Teal, magenta and Indian yellow red shade. All my paints are the Michael Harding Brand, the colour is so strong and clean
      I hope this helps.

    @Xplorer228 3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    What doesn't really make sense about plein air painting is the fact that at least a fourth of the time you're painting from memory because the lighting and subjects can change drastically. So I've never agreed with the whole talk of "painting from life is so much truer than from photographs" argument. Even cell phone cameras capture pretty accurately what is in front of you in most cases and the very least you can manipulate the photo to be more true to what you are witnessing anyway and cut out so much of the guess work before going into the large scale paintings. That being said I do love the excuse to just be out in the elements and really take in all I'm seeing.

    • @LeonHolmesArtist
      @LeonHolmesArtist 3 ปีที่แล้ว

      Hi mossy, when you get out there and paint a few hundred you’ll start to realize that a photo does no justice. Even when the light moves you can always reference the colours and value somewhere else in the landscape. Believe me it’s really different to painting from a photo. I still use photo references n the studio but the works are often a lot more contrived no matter how hard I push my creativity 😉
