Try starting a painting from a photo or photos. Then after 10 minutes , put the pictures away and try finishing from memory. But for only a further 10 minutes.
In 30 minutes you may have a painting but it will definately encourage you to speed up WHEN you go outside.
I absolutely love your shared thought processes behind your beautiful paintings. Fantastic video, keep them coming!
Beyond your obvious talent, you have a real warmth and a kind of thoughtfulness that's all too rare these days. Thank you for sharing that with us. I hope you are recognized as extraordinary in the categories you inhabit.
Noone like a kiss-a$$
Really clear and helpful. I appreciate your thoughts on thinking the painting through before hand and understanding what will continue to be compelling to you. It seems so obvious, but someone had to say it for it to be so. Thanks!
Loved seeing the real time and all of your commentary. Thanks!
The advice on figuring out the composition alone was worth the time. Thank you Chelsea.
Monet discovered that light changes every 6-7 mins which resulted in pieces like his Hay stacks, working on them simultaneously, switching out his canvases every few minutes
And art has learned that Monet had an eye difference also. He saw things differently too.
I wondered why I was unable to see nature in a similar , Impressionistic , way as the first exponents did . Plus , not enough attention paid to the instance of tubed paint. This enabled artists to venture outside more easily.
I love the texture in this style…all the colors overlapping…it’s beautiful.❤
So beautiful, Chelsea. A great artwork painted loose. Thank you for an extraordinary teaching.
Eighteen minutes and Thirty six seconds well spent today learning from you ! Watching from Hong Kong. Thanks for the gift, much appreciated.
Thank you for sharing your process…helped me get in better touch with the experience.
A lovely video. First time on this channel. I think much of what you said can be applied to all media. Practice, learn from mistakes, get confident and deliberate. Great painting. Oh, and I'd recommend plein air (going out into nature and painting directly) for any artist who feels locked up. It's invigorating.
Such useful information, wonderful brushwork, beautiful oil painting.
Great demo. I love the paint sample suggestion. Going to try that for sure.
I don't like painting outdoors and the hassle it entails. I only work from photos. To paint looser don't use small brushes and take your photo and place it further away so you can't see the details.
so good!! I love your channel I have learned so much from you ❤️
The clouds look like they are exploding out of the tree. LOVE your color palette.
I love this painting. Very inspiring and useful tips
refreshing and fun and very informative!! thank you!
Love the bright yellow and orange sky!
I love your pallette and composition. Thank you.
super nice, thanks for showing your process
Absolutely mesmerizing ......truly enjoyed watching your process :-)
this is GOLD. thanks so much:) really informative
Watching your videos always inspires me. Thank you ❤
After watching your video, I realise I should paint more thank you, I like the single placement of brush strokes without to much fussing around.
BTW. for those without an Edge system, to use stick on velcro tabs ...and the same on a sheet of firm board or, as I use Coreflute, is a similar outcome, works for me.
I’ve been locked in with my vintage cars for so long , sometimes it’s difficult for me to paint really loose. I did paint a little 5x7 yesterday and just doing that , it was a nice change of pace. The painting is almost finished . Usually it takes me weeks to finish a painting.
Pearls of wisdom, thanks
New subscriber here, from the moment I started watching your vid I knew I'm at the right place. I can really relate to all you've said about this one😊 thank you so much for the tips. Will definitely go through your list👍
Thank you thank you so much for this lesson. I am a beginner painter and still trying to learn the fundamental techniques and seeing this real time demo is truly valuable. I also appreciated the insightful and honest commentary. I'm looking forward to more of your videos. 💯
First time viewing a video of yours. I enjoyed it! I learned one of the reasons why I gravitated to a certain subject matter over others. Thank you.
perfect colors and they justify what you do, nice.
Thank you for this Chelsea! Found your channel just a few days ago and I already feel like I've learned so much! You're a great teacher thank you ❤️
Me also exactly same... nothing difference
That easel is fantastic..
Not only talent in your work: lot's of cleverness in your approach and process. Thanks again for sharing it with us all~!
Great video. I also use the eye dropper tool on Photoshop. I'm often very surprised at the actual color. Thank you for sharing your expertise
wonderful demo. Thanks for sharing your valuable insights on loosening up to paint! :)
Excellent tutorial. Thank you😊
Beautiful!
We found this channel just now🤩 and loved all your painting.. your Presentation....everything.❤❤. & subscribed✌✌
Lovely painting . It’s stands on its own.
Your tips really motivate one to work from Life , and I so much appreciate it. Quite an insightful upload friend ❤️ Thank you so much for sharing 😘
Thank you soooooo much, it's so good lesson👌👌👌👌👌
Excellent information, thanks! That unconscious patting habit is a great point, the mind is tricky bugger indeed.
Thank you for this video, really informative
Thanks for the video 'really helpful for artists
So beautiful Chelsea :) I have been painting watercolor lately but watching you is making me want to take out my oil paints :) 🤎
Thanks for the willingness to share this loose painting. The type of style I like. I would like to paint a portrait of my children.
Hilberto: try to paint other people's portrait first, the most dificult are your own children. Best of luck.
Hi Chelsea. Your explanations about the painting process and psychology behind art really resonates with me. Could you please recommend any books you might know about regarding the psychology of art or painting or the psychology of the artist? Thank you so much for all you do!
I love it. Thank-you.
Great work. By watching kids paint and viewing their work I find one must paint with a kids mind on one thought to keep things loosely…
Your work will help me get away from the to tight painting..
Thanks for video and I subbed you. May God bless.
Great lesson, TY..
Loved this video :) I know absolutely nothing about oil painting but love your art and your helpful videos so thats why I subscribed as soon as I found your channel a while ago. Like I had no idea oil paint could go on so watery...well, obviously medium or oil I guess, not water, but you get my point. Very cool. I'm using our kitchen to learn so haven't wanted to get into solvents and things...but maybe one day if I can get better and also a better set up :)
But this advice is awesome for helping me loosen up in acrylics and watercolor too. Drives me crazy how hard it is to loosen up!! I'll feel like I'm being loose, and before we know it I'm up close, tensely holding my brush doing too much detail :/ or obsessing about what I'm doing wrong...which is probably a lot😳 but I'll start with the intention of 'just for fun...loosen up!' but always fall back into overworking it or overthinking it and ends up too tight or too stressful. So....I'm just teaching myself as an old lady, so not like expecting amazing, but it us frustrating to have these things in my head I need to get out only to have them not be at all what I intended. I'm also impatient and in a lot of pain always so that adds to the impatience 😊 so....just trying to also teach myself to slow down and breathe and not get as mad at myself....though I also suck at that! Aaahahahaa anyway, love your channel and advice and always look forward to your videos :)
Thanks so much for taking the time to share them!!!
Lovely piece of art. Would be good to see your ref photo and your palette and colour choices and mixing
Fantastic video. Thanks for sharing.
Amazing painting
Hi Chelsea. Thanks for the information. Can you make a video on how you edit your reference to bring the desired effect ??
thanks so much , chelsea, for another wonderful video, and some great tips!! i paint in gouache, and watercolors ( norakag ), and i find so many of your tips snd thoughts applicable and helpful to me, regardless of using different mediums .. thanks so much for your generosity in sharing ..
be well and have great weekend 👍👍
Awesome 😎 painting 🖌️🎨
I just have to say I love the way you speak. Your tone and pauses.... may seem like an odd thing to compliment, but I really noticed it.
very informative thanks
Pretty col results!
Great vids , thanx.
You are very eloquent...and a great artist! THANKS! Sub'd
How did you mount your canvas or paper? How does it stay secured in that spot?
Thanks Chelsea that was really lovely. I look at your tutorials over and over, do you dip your brush into your Gamsol first and then pick up the oils next. Does that not mess up your oils, or do you have two pallettes ?
that was great
Keep it up, bro.
I make a small sketch of what I might want to paint. This will be out side and only work quickly. This is what I will work from to ensure I don't get bogged down with detail. If by chance I do work from a photo, again I make a sketch. This is some times a large A1 size sheet of paper. Another way to work from a photo is use software that can blur the image.
Good painting lesson, but I feel you should talk about the colours & how to apply them !
beautiful painting. Thanks for sharing! Could you share what colors you mixed for the initial underpainting of the foreground area and the purple sky wash?
Thanks for all the sharing of experience you’ve given in this tutorial. Working through or around these impediments and challenges take a lot of effort and time. You’re a blessing and I look forward to following your work.
Very very beautiful... 👍👍👍👍👍
Great video . Can you please share the colors used?
Somebody used the word eloquent, yes. very inciteful, and need to say more but a thank
you will suffice. I use Acrylic's but many thing are common with oils. obtaining average values and not blending or hundreds of smaller brush strokes would be useful to me. but never the less, you are helping immensly. Ta
Thank u
I like plane air painting too.
Can you show your pallet while you paint please?
Very helpful - thank you. Do u mix your colors beforehand or are u mixing each stroke as u go?
Turneresk. Brilliant.
Very good ...
I'd love to make sense out of your easel or the board you have your painting on.
The combination of strokes with material difference is interesting. It would be better to have mentioned the palette you used, although it can be inferred. Thank you
Great tips. Thanks . If you answer questions I have one about the color mix you used in the first wash. A beautiful gray that looks like magenta ,ultra , and b sennia?
Love your style and the colour palette is really lovely. I signed up to find out what it was but there was just a large list. How can I find out what colours you used for the initial sky and the sunset yellows and peach tone please?
Thank you. What is your studio set up? Is this a pochade? Lovely painting.
.
what are you using to make the oil paint so loose?
Nice vid, Remember... if you think the brush mark is interesting, leave it alone. Helps me prevent over working
Je vous découvre et je suis surprise de tant de simplicité ! J'aime beaucoup ce que vous faites. Dommage que je ne comprenne pas ce que vous dites et il n'y a malheureusement pas de traduction en français. Pourriez vous l'activer svp. Merci pour le plaisir que vous inspirez.
Chelsea, you once mentioned a book on alla prima painting. The best I can remember it was written by a man named Cameron? Is that the authors name?..The painting a day for 30 days is a goal. And the idea of not mixing on the canvas but on the palette is very helpful.
Alla prima is written by richard schmid :)
How do you hold that canvas to the easel? TY🙏
what medium did you used in that violet background
left lower corner was my fav 😢
My paints are way thick and dry. What do you mix w yours?
Great & beautiful! What mediums are you using??? You didn't say. I assume a gum turpentine/solvent with paint to start, but you add what medium to make it run so nice?
How can you put trees over a brighter sky without going milky?
How many coats of gamvar
❤❤❤
Forgive the "correction", but when you're painting from photos the "hardness or softness of the edges" is decided by the painter, NOT by the photo. Successful painting from photos is much harder than painting from life since it requires much more of the painter's artistical intelligence and knowledge of form.
I get very tired of the idea that painting from photos is bad, because so many of the paintings done from photos are bad. There are zillions of bad paintings painted from life; does that mean we shouldn't paint from life? Obviously not. To quote an old adage: it's not the wand (the model, be it a photo or otherwise), it's the magician. However, the magician has to be properly trained in a modern academy. One has to KNOW what one is doing.
