THANKS FOR WATCHING! - แนวปฏิบัติและการใช้ชีวิต
I truly appreciate your sharing of your skills. Watching and learning from your explanations has greatly improved my own skills. Thanks!
Great to hear!
It is always new experience to follow your techniques and to learn a lot from your videos. It is clear that you do a lot of home work to make it better. Thanks for everything
I really like that detailing in the trees. Excellent.
The painting is so beautiful. I envy your skills. I'm going around to learn oil painting these days. I'm still new to it. Your painting warms my anxious and painful heart. I'm not good enough to copy it yet, so I just watch the video. I want to copy it someday, decorate my house, and post it on TH-cam to show it off. Thank you. 😂
Thank you, I am learning so much about techniques. The music is great & relaxing.
Thank you for more techniques to make the trees that I paint more realistic. I love your work
My pleasure 😊
Beautiful sunshine, blue skies, and relaxing music. And wonderful detailed art. Thanks. ☀️😊
Many thanks!
Newbie here and just now learning about blocking and undercoating. Now I'll know how to add the details and background back in.
Thank you very much.
Hi Michael thank you so much for this tutorial. The whole painting was stunning. I love it. Painting trees was never my strong point. In fact most are a disaster and I threw them out. But I did keep a few with the hope that I might be able to do something with them and this tutorial is just the tonic I needed. You gave me great inspiration here and please God, I might be able to do something with these screw ups 😅and bring the paintings back to something much better. It's the trunks and branches of the trees more than the foliage really but the trunks can ruin everything when they are not right. Now I know it's the wrong brushes I was using and technique. Thanks to your help I think I'll be able to go back to it and if not do them again and with better knowledge this time with what you've just showed me here. Thank you so much for this. I'm so grateful. God bless you and your work. Susan ❤👍🎨🙏🕊
Ahhh. My pleasure 😇
Absolutely incredible your steady hand, and the results, bravo!
Lepo,prelepo za oko, uzivanje gledati.🇷🇸 pozdrav iz Srbije.
Most of the original mid-tones layed down disappear once the other layers are applied. So is there a point in putting down the mid-tones in the first place?
Очень радостно снова Вас видеть. Учиться у Вас,.спасибо.🙏🍀💖😘
Michael,fico impressionada com a perfeição de suas obras!!!Adoro vê-lo pintando.
Amazing.. thank you so much for sharing. My trees are starting to look real at last. 🎉🎉🎉
Wonderful!
I must say watching the exact way you progess in the painting realy clarrifies how your method really works. It's fantastic!
Thank you so much 😀
Awesome work as always!!
AWWW!!! So pretty! You did a beautiful job on that painting! 😊
Thank you! Cheers!
Thank you!
You’re a terrific artist Michael. I really enjoyed this lesson. Now all I have to do is develop the patience to do it. Thanks again.😎🇦🇺🦘
You can do it!
@@MichaelJamesSmith

Hello maestro,tanks you very mutch.
You are welcome
Your expert tutelage is invaluable to beginners and novices like myself! My "first" trees have come a long way because of YOU!
So nice of you
I am a fan of your work. Fantastic job
Thank you very much!
👋Hi Michael, thanks a lot for another of your excellent tutorials, clear, precise instructions. I like the motif, very beautiful, and the finished painting, I'm sure of that, is gonna be outstanding good again. Have a nice weekend❤
Many thanks!
Awesome work. As always like a photo
Thanks again!
nice tutorial !
Excellent work but for me, it looked more real somehow before all the highlights went in with the fan brush.
Love your work very very much ❤😂
I’m painting an Italian street scene and it’s driving me insane lol
It looks more like France 🇫🇷 😂
Asmr. These videos calm my mind I'm sure fellow artists feel the same
Just received the foliage brush set 😁 can’t wait to try them out 🎨
Merci Michael 🤩
Thank You 🙏
Thank you for sharing.
Köszönöm, hogy megnézhettem ezt a tanítást, csodás eredmény!
Are ya sure the piano wasn't in the same room withya? Sounded like it'was right behind you, had a tight space echo about it, quality that be. So good to see you outdoors doing your ever self-unique search for examples and did I 🤣 when spying all the studio wall tape-ups, that's how I've seen you over the years, quite the mess! (& never having enough room!) The same layer logics, bonzer simplistic technique and uncomplicated explanations, but my how you've improved your brushes and detail work, very exciting and boy I'm extremely beholden of your sharing this ever-travel artists endure. I very much remember whilst painting a forest scene for me gramps, I started it, stopped for nearly a year, came back to it and the end result showed quite the difference in mere brain maturing, there were two glaringly different styles, but gramps never said a word, he framed it and proudly displayed it in his foyer where all entering couldn't miss it (including me & my criticizing 👀s). Thanks SirMikey, best yet lesson on trees (& how to LIVE like a real artist 🐒) love ya 🤠
Glad you liked it Jaclyn! Ya gotta love a grandad 😊
One of the most useful videos of painting trees. Thank you
Glad it was helpful!
a real master
Thank you sir, great lesson.
Excellent instruction. New subscriber here. Impressive work.
Thanks for the sub!
Awesome!
Thanks!
lovely work ❤
Thats a very good and beautiful Landscape !
Great work
Mr. Michael, your name are renting free in my mind, i always want to live in almost all of your artwork, the sceneries is very satisfy my seek of solitude in nature.
You are truly my inspiration and my reason liking Acrylic artwork, you are simply reasonable with your techniques and artwork, simple yet extremely advanced. I have to say i saw so many many artists, but you are always my top 1 teacher, favorite artist, and inspiration. God bless you and peace be upon you. We learned a lot from you.
Thank you .
You are welcome!
@@MichaelJamesSmith I'm anyway just gonna start with trees , so I'm glad I got you're video today. I'm gonna apply it right now... Thank you so much ! God bless you
What an amazing talent you have and such a lovely blessing that you share it with us.
Beautiful❤❤❤❤
Thank you! 😊
Amazing painting
The online school is absolutely wonderful! It is also reasobably priced.
Superrrr From Türkiye/Samsun
What a treat this was! It was quite helpful to see up close what you’re doing. I always am unsatisfied with my trees but you have shown me exactly how to fix that. Thank you for your generosity in sharing your methods. (And PS the music was lovely)
You are so welcome!
I totally agree I love your techniques, you describe them so well you do not need the Muzak.
ผมติดตามตลอดและหัดวาด. คุณสอนได้ดีมากๆ. ขอบคุณมาก. มีผู้คนมาซื้อรูปที่คุณสอนแล้ว...From. Thailand....
Love this. You're my favorite living artist. Would you consider not having music play when you're talking?
Definitely. I’ll sort it for next time
@@MichaelJamesSmith Thank you!
Happy Easter.
You, sir, are a magician.
This was great!! Amazing work. Hopefully one day I’ll get there. Not sure I have enough years left 😂😂
Personally, I like the music in the background, it is relaxing and helps me focus on the instruction and technique.
Suas pinturas são lindas. É um prazer assistir a seus vídeos.
Amazing
👌👌👌 До чого ж красиво! ❤❤❤
"But what the hell is that?" is my genuine reaction to the most random spot on my almost done painting and me having to go over it multiple times until it actually gets covered 😭. All jokes aside, your paintings are awesome! I do a bit of painting and drawing myself, and I have to say I am very close to your realism aspect! I made a painting of thanos and iron around a year ago, I feel so much pain from not finding your youtube channel until today. Your videos would've helped a lot TvT. Keep up the good work!
I really wanted to join your online painting academy, but I'm not fluent in English, and I'm writing this comment with the help of Google Translate. Can I still make satisfactory progress in my studies just by carefully observing the classes? I'm from Brazil and a big fan of your art. Cheers!!!
Yes you can!
Very Very nice
Thanks
MJS has made me unsubscribe many other co-called artists. What an exceptional artist and teacher you are! Sharing your painting secrets and skills is extremely generous of you!
Michael, I paint most of my landscapes with acrylics. I do use flow extender, retarder medium and have used glazing techniques in the past. I have painted over 40 plus years but can’t seem to reach a more advanced level in my skills ( my love of Impressionism plus also an OCD to details….). I continue to remain at best, an intermediate skill level. Suggestions? Would your TV channel lessons apply as well to acrylic artists? Your work is stunning and I could lose myself in it.
Have you tried my free lesson? It’s available on my website www.michaeljamessmith.tv
Thanks for the video! (but the sound is too quiet)
How do you prevent yellow from being transparent? For example painting yellow green grass blades that are opaque and not ghostly transparent.
I love your work. I noticed in this one the texture in the canvas. I thought you usually make the canvas smooth before you paint?
I mostly paint on smooth panels but sometimes I like to mix it up
I would like to see you paint with cheap brushes. Good fun
I only have acrylics can I paint the whole thing with only acrylics
Hi, I am amazed with your technique and talent .Follow you with amusement and joy.I have a question.It looks may be a basic one but please can you tell my which consistency your paint is - as I am struggling while I am painting - very often my paint is kind of stiff .Thank you
❤
I absolutely love watching you work and you are an excellent teacher. I work only with acrylics and find I can apply most of the same techniques. Would you agree? I’d love to be in your patreon group but fear two things (1) I’m a newbie, and (2) you work mainly with oil so will the content be suitable for me?
The content should definitely benefit you. Have you tried our free lesson on our website? www.michaeljamessmith.tv
@@MichaelJamesSmith no I haven’t but I definitely will! Thank you!
No medium, only paint. What about the fat over lean principle..? 9:07
Excellent video, thank you!
For one thing, he's painting over dried acrylic I think; so fat over lean doesn't apply, though other considerations might (e.g. adhesion: I'd rather use thinned oil than acrylic underpainting, but on a rigid surface, the acrylic applied thinly, I think he's here for the long term!). Plus - there's a point about medium - all medium usually is is extra oil to that which has already been used to mill the paint; or an alkyd; or various thickened ("bodied") oils. He's not speficially painting alla prima here, but the layers added are not built up in such a way that fat over lean is an issue - he's not using oil rich paint and then adding thinned paint on top, which is the problem with lean over fat leading to cracking. Technically, I think Mr Smith's paintings should hold up very well over the years.
"specifically", not my nice new spelling: the eyesight isn't what it was.....
Thanks for your good answer.@@RobertJonesWightpaint
👍👍👍

@@MichaelJamesSmith Thanks a mill bud ,,
🍃💙.
I love your instructions but please no music!sometimes I have to mute you just to escape the distracting music.
why is the sound so low?
Very good, but do lose the music. You're teaching - you have an active audience - and so the music is a serious hindrance.
Understood 👍
"When will the Arabic language be available in your paid lessons? I want to subscribe in the future."
We’re translating as quickly as we can. There is a selection of translated videos to be going on with!
Yes, please no music. It's distracting!
Very beautiful, when will my paintings get lots of visitors, I want to have a big audience like this channel, subscribers can also reach millions. please help me..
Just keep producing!
@@MichaelJamesSmith thank you
Your audio is really bad & way too low in this video!
When you are narrating the video please lose the background music. It distracts from what you are saying.
You can separate and remove the music so that only the voice is left narrating with a website with Artificial Intelligence that does these things. That's how I do it.
