1:42 This painting reminds me of 19th century watercolours; it’s so romantic! I’ve wondered how the artists applied their paints and watching you paint is like looking through a window into the past. Thank you 🙂.
A lot of people say my painting style is like 'old nature illustrations' which is totally fine by me 😀 I guess I think in a similar way to people of that era??
We love how you captured this scenery! It's so easy to see why the Romantics connected with the severe beauty of landscapes like this, how it evokes the sense of ancient mystery. Thanks for including the oh-so-satisfying sound of the tape peeling off the edges!
Ooh, so WONDERFUL! I travelled many times to Scotland, and the colors, especially in Glencoe, always mesmerized me so much. Have you ever been to Iceland? The colors there are also breathtaking! I thought I wouldn't like it, because they have almost no trees. Just teeny tiny ones. Or maybe I should say some wee trees 😂But I loved it. But for living I would need trees. Deeply. Trees are my most loved plants.
On this absolutely dreary, dreary day we are having here, the view of sun drenched hills and sparkling waterfalls is indeed welcome! ❤ Love the paintings! I finally tried plein air ( when we still had decent weather conditions) and I wonder, if you have the same feeling - when you paint outside, it looks to me that even if the painting lacks in technical "department", it has more to it, than the same painting,of the same subject,made at home. Although, thinking logically, it should be the other way around, as you probably have more time,no wind and no glaring sunlight or rain on your page, when inside? 😮 strange... Also, your brushes are my favourites now, it's a pure joy to use them! Thank you, I can see that you poured your soul into them! They are going to be cherished and looked after , and used a lot! 👍 Happy painting!
Yes I absolutely agree. I can NEVER replicate the freshness, immediacy, life, or energy of a plein air painting back in the studio. That's probably why I'm mostly painting outside nowadays. I still find studio work important for progressing ideas and technical skills but it feels less meaningful compared to my outdoor sketches. Also I'm so happy to hear you are enjoying the brushes as much as I am!
Oh Glencoe! My husband and I were there in June as well! Although we only passed by briefly (we stayed one night in Loch Lomond and then drove from there to Inveraray, Oban, Glencoe, Bridge of Orchy and then back to Edinburgh. Lovely landscape! I'm sure it'll inspire you for a long time! Your painting is wonderful. Love the details on the mountain tops. And glad you were able to take a breather after having such a shitty May. Looking forward to the next vid!
You're right. @ 50 sec of your video I had to pause to take a screen shot. It was so beautiful that I have decided to paint it (or some version of it 🙂. Then I kept watching your video and ... here it comes, or close enough. Beautiful! Thanks for showing us that beautiful land. A bit of "Skyfall" vibe (don't judge!) ;-)
FYI, M. Graham Gouache and watercolours contains pure pigment in a gum arabic and honey binder. They use blackberry honey, which acts as a natural humectant. They say this keeps the paint semi-moist and allows the paint to be easily reconstituted. I personally don’t use M. Graham in my Plein air or travel palettes because the paint is more liquidity and tends to leak out of them. I do love using it in my studio though. For my travel palettes I use Daniel Smith. If anyone is allergic to bee stings, keep in mind that these insects are attracted to M. Graham paints because of the honey binder. It’s unlikely you’ll get swarmed but there might be one or two who will investigate. Sarah, it’s always a joy to see you on adventures and watch you sketch and paint. Thank you for sharing!
I've been with you on your painting videos journey for about a year. It's wonderful seeing your skills improve while your style still shows through. I see the biggest growth at 3:50 with the waterfall and loved watching the progress to this stage. You have inspired me to try more gouache. It had never been my preference because I didn't think it could move as well as transparent watercolor, but you've shown me otherwise. I rejected gouache awhile ago because the opacity was dull and chalky. Changing to M. Graham gouache (white, alizarin crimson, azo and hansa yellow, and cobalt blue) was a game changer. With those colors, I can mix anything, including purples and oranges that are vibrant yet not neon. The paints rewet easily (of course, with honey) and thin to transparency. The ability to paint opaque details is so valuable. Thank you for bringing me into the world of gouache ... along with James Gurney ... so I can continue my love of transparent watercolor while allowing for the properties of gouache to enhance my work.
Oh wow at the expansive views. You have definitely captured the magnificent beautiful of the greens of the hillside mountains. The amount of details & variety of colors is amazing. Thanks for sharing this wonderful inspirational video with us! Enjoy your weekend!
Absolutely beautiful painting! I love the colors and I love the terrain. I find it hard to believe my ancestors left this area for ‘greener’ pastures in America. This area appears to be about as close to heaven as one could get while still alive. -OkieSketcher1949
I know, when I came here I was like "this is paradise...why would anyone leave!?" Now that I've lived here for a while, I can see why someone who grew up here might leave. 1. The weather; 2. People here think you can buy anything and everything in America much cheaper and more readily which is very appealing to most; 3. There's a sense of much more space and cheaper home prices in America...'land of the free where you can make a better life for yourself'...All of which is perpetuated by media/Hollywood
You know, it is absolutely amazing how beautiful your work is Sarah. It's so enjoyable watching you paint and listening to you talk. Honestly , I could listen to you talk or ramble about anything all day! If I could sum up this painting into just one word it would be serenity. The lush colors rolling over the hills is gorgeous! I can't wait to see what else comes from your inspiring trip to Glencoe.
Another excellent video - you have certainly done Glencoe justice! I also find it hauntingly beautiful in all seasons and am very much looking forward to seeing it again in September. Very keen to see what else you produce from this trip :)
@@SarahBurnsStudio Coast are also very beautiful but perhaps a bit complicated to paint at sunny days. On my taste, as well as for photography and painting , I prefer to paint when a bit cloudy.
What a beautiful painting, it does look so green and cool. That said as the hill behind our house is a dry whitish ochre and the outside temperature is 102 degrees Fahrenheit.
Oh boy, I'll be visiting Scotland early September and will do a roadtrip with my bf for two weeks, We'll stay in Edinburgh, Glencoe, Inverness and Ullapool for hiking and sightseeing. I'm sooooo excited for it and your video came at the perfect time! Plus your drawings are absolutely stunning as always
Beautiful rendition of the landscape, Sarah. I love the pops of blue on the distant mountains. Wondering which blue or combination you used for that? You know, you could be teaching plein air painting workshops in person and be very successful at that. There’s so few gouache instructors out there. It might be a niche for you to fill.
It's easy to see why this place haunts you; the landscape is so magnificent it almost defies description. You've managed to capture very well some of its qualities that have been etched into your soul.
It really is magnificent. I can't help but sit in reverence and feel overwhelmed by the amazing nature and history of this land (which is actually a sad history too)
Painter as travel agent - Sarah, now you’ve got me obsessed with this place! 😆 I can see why Glencoe is so inspiring for you, and that’s just from watching your beautiful footage on my little screen. I can imagine how breathtaking it s in person 💚 Watching you paint, how you move the paint and build layers, is both calming and energizing. My favorite thing is to watch your videos on Saturday morning and then go play with paint myself 🎨🖌️💛🧡❤️ Thank you 🙏
Those mountains were the first thing I ever saw from the Highlands and I was immediately enchanted so I know how you feel. Painting them seems to be the only way to even capture the magic there, as I have yet to come across a photograph that manages to do it. Your painting does :)
These mountains look like a magical place to be and your painting really captures that ❤ I also really liked how you included that the painting was done over two days, I often feel like I'm too slow when I can't finish an A4 painting in one sitting thanks to all the fast timelapses on social media 😅
Yea, anything larger than A5 I usually spend two days (or two different sessions) on. Mainly because it takes longer to paint all the details I want AND I want to give my eyes/mind a rest, when I come back to it I can see it with fresh eyes and that's good for achieving my vision
Sarah, your paintings always takes my breath away! How amazing they look! If just focused on your painting, it looks so realistic like the real scenery! Thank you for sharing your beautiful work!
Your painting is stunning! I love your work and find your videos so inspiring. Thank you for the tremendous effort you give in the making of these videos for this community.
That's something I'm exploring a lot lately. I'm using larger and larger paper to give myself 'room to play' with those washy areas and let them show through...so fun!
I find myself living vicariously through your videos! Ive never been to Scotland but its been a dream of mine since I can remember. there is so much to long for and your videos of the gorgeous landscapes speak tp my soul. Thank you!
I never stop admire how easy is for you to capture those beautiful mountains! For me … not so much! The only thing that I see where I live is Hot! Hot! Hot days !!!! Thank you❤
It’s 7 am here in FL and my iPhone has delivered the notice that Sarah has posted another of her inspiring videos. Now I know it is going to be a great day! These paintings are so capture the Spirit of the place. So very lovely. 🙏❤️💕☮️🖖
@@SarahBurnsStudio It was a lovely morning but this afternoon, it is raining. It looks like it might turn into an horrendous hurricane season for us. The water temperature all around FL right now is 98.5 degrees F! Time to prepare. We cold use a miracle of continued wind shear to prevent this. Prayers are needed and appreciated. 🙏🏻❤️
Visiting Glen Coe myself is definitely high on my travel bucket list so I loved this video! Also made the decision to join your Patreon, I've been thinking about for a while and your videos are so inspiring and they make me smile so I decided to take the plunge today!
have you used poster colours before? they are similar to gouache and I am wondering if a dry gouache palette needs to use preventative methods to stop mould?
When plein air painting, do you have any tips on how to store your art supplies to keep them dry? I’m planing a 67km (+ a summit hike(?)) hike in the mountains in aug-sep and would like to bring some watercolors with me. I haven’t tried plein air painting before but I’m really tempted to bring some supplies anyways (but there is still sometime until then to give it ago before I go on my longer trip). My biggest worry is that it will start raining and everything will be drenched. Btw, this was a beautiful painting you did. Probably one of my favorites! And Scotland is so beautiful definitely on my list of places to visit some day.
@@SarahBurnsStudio yes, I have a 80L backpack that comes with a raincover.

Hello Sarah, can you tell me why gouache tubes are so small? Why can't they be the size of oil paint tubes? I received the cards you sent. Thank you
Probably because 1. traditionally it was only used for poster illustrations which were generally smaller, 2. it's HIGH concentration of pigment so a tiny bit goes a long way
