- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 4 ต.ค. 2024
- In this oil painting tutorial I'll show you how to paint a detailed landscape foreground. I will focus on how to paint detailed grass along a river, where you will learn the brush techniques used for painting grass and how to mix green oil colours for painting realistic grass.
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!

THANKS FOR WATCHING!
I am 86 and recently lost my husband of 68 years, I have been lost . I decided to try to learn to paint and have been watching you. I just love how you paint. I am learning so much and now have a reason to get up in the morning. I have so much to learn about paint products and how to make the paint flow off the brush and what liquid is but I am getting better and can smile again sometimes. Thank you Your really cute
That is so inspiring to me.
Beverly, I hope you are doing better....
Well done Bev, hope today is a good day
I used to teach a local oil painting class & several women joined us who were recently widowed. They expressed the same feelings as what you said. There's something about painting that's soothing to a broken heart. Thank God I haven't experienced losing my husband but my heart goes out to you & I'm soooo glad you found a reason to go on. May God bless you.
Yes he is really cute! Beautiful paintings, Fabulous painter/teacher
Nobody paints like you, Michael James Smith. If they reintroduce the Garden of Eden, I am nominating you to head up the design team. I want o be in this scene with my lady and a picnic hamper. Thank you. God bless you.
This is what you need to have perseverance and perseverance. I am surprised. Praise the artist.
Michael ....this is miraculous! You have been touched by a higher power....what joy to look at what you do...and learn...and to enjoy what's possible in the human mind !
Had you been born in 1400s ...you would have been idolised !
I am painting an Australian scene with dry dead grass- your technique has helped me so much and has spurred me on to finish it - Thank you Michael. So Kind to share.
You just transform the whole thing, it's so marvellous watching you, loved this technique, thankyou so much Micheal
I think your paintings are remarkable. I absolutely love your attention to detail and the results are beautiful.
Phenomenal work as always! I'm constantly blown away by the level of realism you achieve in your grass, plants, and trees.
The photo realism of your landscapes is stunning. It's not my preferred style, but I can sure appreciate incredible talent when I see it. Thank ypou for your videos (and, yes, I watch all of them).
You achieve a phenomenal photo realism in your paintings and I am amazed at the amount of detail you put in to them. You paint every leaf and every blade of grass. You are so talented. I love watching you paint but I couldn't ever hope to paint like you. Fantastic, that's all I can say.
It takes more talent to NOT paint every leaf and make it look as he did. I have painted for a long time and trust me , painting the illusion of detail is far more difficult. Look up Donald Jurney....he is the Master of what I describe. And I have seen his work in person and always blown away by the realism of his work with minimal strokes.
Paul, you are comparing apples to oranges. I love Impressionism too but these are two totally different techniques.. Michael is going for photo realism and I’d say he nails it!
You wrote: "You paint every leaf and every blade of grass". Uuhum... How else could/should do that to complete the painting? ;)
@@AndersJohansson many artists don't, thus Paul's comment. But I'm learning how to do it all using Michael's instruction, and then I can choose what to keep and what to imply.
I am a fan of james work. He paints so natural and realistic.
I had to rewind and watch the part where you went from the previously painted one and the reference photo.... the painting is so realistic! One could say better than the photo! Wow....
I have a painting background but have not known the techniques you employ to produce realistic foliage, whether in the distance or foreground. Thank you for your clear instruction and the opportunity to see you beautiful paintings come to life.
thank you for letting us in to your studio and watching you make magic with your brushes and telling us how you do it. I just love watching. it trutly makes my day. thank you so much i'll be watching every day.
that is a brilliant idea with just the hair of the end of a stick thankyou for that - great work
I could watch this a hundred times over and still be just as fascinated as the first time. I like the home made brush. And yes, I will be trying that. Thank you sir
Best tutorial I’ve ever watched!!!!
Thank you for patiently explaining your process at the same time while you actually paint. This was very helpful.
Lovely place! Makes me want to go there and just sit down and look.
I am pretty much self taught until now. I have learned so much from watching you. Thank you so much for making these videos. Perhaps one day you could do a video of your studio and how you have it set up.
You are a huge inspiration. Just when I was ready to glue grass to the canvas I watched this video again. I'll watch it another ten times before attempting grass again...just to make certain.
I am a new "trying to be an artist" and I am amazed at the realism of your painting. Your painting looks like you could just step into the painting everything looks so realistic. Thank you for sharing your talent and your skills and your tips! You are phenomenal.
You are so generous with your information Michael. Thank you so much for posting these brilliant videos.
No hablo inglés pero me encanta verlo pitar y aprender de ver cómo lo hace, agradezco que nos comparta sus métodos tan eficazmente
you are definitely one of the modern great artists that I have seen.
absolutely amazing. I am learning so much. Yes totally blown away. Keep sharing your God given talent with others. Love it.
I've watched this same video a few times now and love the way you do the detail in your artwork. truly stunning to watch and listen to you.
So detail. Thousand thanks to You Michael.
Thank you so much for your tree and grass videos. I was stuck on the details for my landscape. You helped me so much.
Thank for this tutorial just started 4 weeks ago myself, did a view paintings now and guess what I am color blind and never thought that I was able to learn painting in colors. Learned new stuff watching your videos.
Melhor pintor realista que já vi no mundo. Parabéns Michael pelos trabalhos realizados com perfeição.
Michael, I really look forward to viewing your videos. You are truly a great artist! Thank you for all of your tips and advice.
A joy to watch, as always. Thank you, Michael. I've come along in leaps and bounds with my acrylics watching your tutorials. Lol. I love realism.
Wow the end result is amazing. You must have endless patience doing all those layers of grass.
Thanks Michael for sharing your wonderful techniques. I'm thinking of moving over from acrylics to oils. Its videos such as yours, that's encouraging and inspiring me to go for it.
Absolutely pain staking rendering of grass but the patience pays off massively.
Respect. I wouldn't have the patience to paint each and every leaf and grass blade piece by piece..
helloo !!!!,omg your comment is 7 years old 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣, How are you
So, it is possible to do the same. Ok I am going to try it. If we use that for fantastic projects as fantasy paintings, or science fiction paintings, it will be absolutely magic. Thank you because you decide to explain techniques. For us it is free courses, and "full hight quality" ones!!! BRAVO
Amazing how you make the most awesome paintings out of (seemingly) boring photos :)
such a talented artist thankyou
I love Michael teaching easy to understand and inspire me .Thank you
hola, observo tu trabajo y llama mi atención que tu pincelada es pequeñísima, eso permite que tu trabajo sea como un bordado de pequeñas puntadas. Eso requiere no sólo habilidad, sino paciencia y delicado detalle. Saludos desde Chile.
I started to paint again recently, and the more I do, the more I appreciate your marvelous skill... :)
I love your very specific details. Great video for beginner like me
About to work on a painting project, and this is really helping. Never thought I’d be as good as I am when I first tried it out. I have only just started this hobby, and I really want to get better at it, and this video helps a lot! Keep up the good work 😄
OMG, first time on your channel. I looked at your job and coundn't figure out why u painted this left down corner grass on the acutal photo Then you showed actual reference and I had to admit that your paint looks more realistic than orginal :D I am amazed, thanks for sharing this.
Michael you are the best of all !!!!!!!!!!!
This was the best painting. You are the best thanks
Great video & beautiful painting! I really love seeing the close-ups. You're the best. Much appreciation for all you share.
Wow, oawesome painting, I will try to paint it, thank
Fantastic ! As good as the old masters. Makes me feel like painting again.
Genial... Lo pondré en práctica... Muchas gracias Maestro...
Greetings master! Your technique is brilliant and so inspiring, I'm watching your videos twice or three times if necessary in order no to lose details. I'm so grateful for the knowledge you deliver us. Sorry for my english. Greetings again from Chile.
you give me hope of being a better painter, thanks for sharing your technique and gift with the world
Hi James... I know how to paint but I can't be like you... You're such a very talented person and I really amazed with your paintings... Thank you so much for sharing the Technics wish I can make it too...😊 Someday

I have always struggled to make grass, but your videos have made it look so easy. I am amazed with the details you are able to put in. One question , why dont you ever go wrong on anything. Every stroke of yours is a perfect stroke. thanks for the video.
