  • In this oil painting tutorial I'll show you how to paint reflections on water using my photorealistic oil painting technique. You'll learn how to mix and apply oil colours to paint reflections on water, and the brush techniques to use for painting realistic reflections.
    I'm a professional landscape artist with over 20 years of experience in oil painting. My TH-cam Channel is dedicated to helping people learn how to paint in oils. I really believe that everyone can learn how to paint!

    I liked the bit where you started on the right side and said you were doing the strokes the other way and you said “ I’m going the other way, why? I here you say” and I answered “ why?” and you said “ I dunno”. Made me laugh out loud and there wasn’t anyone else in the room. That’s what I admire about you Michael, you bring joy to your amazing tutorials, I can’t wait to join your classes. Keep up the fantastic quality of work my friend.🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

    Dear Michael. I don't often watch TH-cam these days (big tech corruption concerns!) but when I do I watch your videos and just a few others. Though I orient toward a bit more abstraction I love your videos and think you have mastered your craft with this style. Beautiful paintings. They are stunning. Many thanks indeed for sharing your talent. Much kindness.

    Michael, I am thoroughly enjoying your videos and im-patiently waiting for your course to start. How close is it or do you have a start date at this time? I have been trying to repaeat your finish on trees but am not having much success. Thus - my impatience for your course. Thanks again for providing such a valuable learning experience and showing how a skill can be developed.

  • @alaugustine5581
    @alaugustine5581 5 ปีที่แล้ว

    Michael, just about the time I thought of running out of new techniques....you come along. I bought some new " Rosemary & Co." brushes and am going to try your method. I am partial and prone to realism so my enthusiasm will carry me through any self made blunders. I am self taught and correct easily. Without painting, I would go nuts, so this is a freshening just when I thought I tried everything.. I`m 91 so whatever is left is enjoyed. Many thanks.....P.S. " have you done anything like this with Pastel?"

    You are a really talented individual. Your paintings are so realistic and a joy to look at. Thanks for all the tips and methods you share with us. I am learning so much but I still can't nail it like you do. Do you always go with reference pictures or could you just paint a screen from within your mind?

  • @lesliesaunders7625
    @lesliesaunders7625 7 ปีที่แล้ว

    Wonderful demo as usual. Was wondering how you cope with situation of the sky exposure being different from that reflected in the water , something that's quite common in reference photos. This often results in clouds not seen in the sky but being reflected in the water. Does it matter or can you compensate for this?

    Just got back from the Jones-Terwilliger Gallery in Palm Desert. Saw many of your paintings and also your fathers! work. Very nice work and I'm greatly impressed! They look even nicer with frames and a coat of varnish! What is your choice of varnishes and what is your preferred way of applying it?

    Michael, may I ask 3 questions please? Do you allow the blocking in stages to dry before you add the stippling and fan brush dabs to the trees? When you are making a glaze how much oil paint to Liquin do you use? And do you add Liquin to every colour you mix? Thank you very much.
