I love the way you demonstrate multiple ways of using one brush in many of your videos. Opens up so many new ways of painting multiple subjects. Thank you again for your willingness to help all of us learn. Every video is a gift.
Thank you. I find your way of explaining how to see and analyze clouds is excellent. I am very glad o have found your videos. They are the help I was searching for. This method really works for me.
1:30 ...'You can see the clouds because of the sky behind them" - You teach us how to fully see what we're lookin' at. Thank you again for another great video! ❤
As always, thank you for the time you take to help us with the quick tips, you are a great teacher and you inspire me. I never knew there was so much to learn about colors, and hues and tones, but you know what? It's much more fun than just painting by numbers, lol. I actually feel creative even if it doesnt come out like I want it to, because I know I am learning and growing. 🙂
I've taken painting lessons for years and have never had anyone teach me how to use complimentary colors the way you do, brilliant! Completely binge watching your channel :)
Thanks, Dianne, for taking us step by step through the reasoning so it can apply to other situations - also really loved the way you handled the push and pull of the brush!
Very informative! Thank you so much for explaining clouds in a different way! I feel like I’m learning enough that I understand what you are teaching!😁💜
Thank you so much, you have answered my question in such a beautiful way that now all of a sudden it’s making sense to me, thanks for sharing such valuable information.
@@IntheStudioArtInstruction yes that’s how I do it. Then dry. Then I work with light grays and white/yellow for the silver lining. Also a touch of blue in it. 3 passes on the clouds and I’m ok with the outcome.
Normally, Linda, I don't tone my canvas. The way I work, I always set up the notan structure on my canvas as the first step. If, for the notan, I use the lift out process (Refer to Quick Tip 207), I have a slight tone to the canvas, Otherwise, I prefer not toning.
Your quick tips are so wonderful! I would love to hear a tip about how to simplify a figure that is not quite so distant such that you can finish in a couple brushstrokes, but also not so close such that you can paint in all the facial features, rather some mid-sized figures like if you are depicting a small market, or a garden etc. In other word, not in a portrait painting, but the figures still take up quite a bit of action in the scene. I have found that it is sooo easy to put too much into the figures, which somehow makes them not appear as a harmonious part of the whole scene, but if I put too little in, they may look too flat. I have this problem in both oil and watercolor but in watercolor it's worse because when I paint the environs tend to look more loose. Sorry for being so verbose.

Sometimes you don't. But stopping early is more preferable than stopping late. Too much refining can take all the life out of a painting. I much prefer my paintings be slightly under-finished than the least bit overly worked. You learn to "listen" to your paintings in progress. The time comes with the reference is insignificant, when the painting takes a life of its own and will guide you towards knowing when to put the brush down. Paying attention to the WHOLE painting is key to knowing when it says "Done".
Landscape painting with acrylic is no different from with oils. Only the techniques of applying the paint is different, but the same is true for any subject you paint with acrylics. The principles of mixing color and using composition are the same regardless of the materials you are using.
Dear Mam If we dont have pathalo as a starter for painting, clouds then can we use cobalt blue or Ultramarine blue for painting sky. Reply me soon Thanks Rims1
Needed some help, I mainly use watercolour, do not want to frame with glass. Want to know how can I varnish my paintings. I have checked and do not have access to either Golden or Schmincke products in my reach.
Sukanya, if you varnish a watercolor painting, you are going to destroy the watercolor character of your paintings. But if you insist on doing that anyway, here's a link as to how watercolor Brienne Brown does it: briennembrown.com/blog/143877/framing-watercolors-without-glass
Kavitha, techniques having to do with portrait painting - especially hue shifts - all depend upon the planes of the face in relation to their position to the light source as reflective colors, brush techniques -- all more than can be shown in a short Quick Tip. May I introduce you to Cesar Santos, one of the best portrait painters on TH-cam. His channel is th-cam.com/channels/HUofurwg70iaByk_qIEZnA.html Browse through his titles, watch what he does and listen to what he says and you will get the wisest guidance available.
Hi Diane, Love your teaching , I have request I have been painting a miniature horse in a pasture, horse is under tree in shade in foreground background is in sun but not real bright sun My question is how to best lay in light on the grass in distance.

Great tutorial, thank you. What is the brand of easel/box you have Diane?

Thank you so very much. You are such a wonderful instructor.
Thank you!

For the amount of time it turns out very nice
When we are using a principle, it takes less time to make an image work.
Excellent teacher
Thank you! 😃
You are awesome❤thank you❤
You are so welcome
Brilliant thank you.
My pleasure. Have fun with it.
you helped me finish my wave painting...thank you!
Wonderful!
Can you tell us what that wonderful fluffy brush is?
The brush I use here is a Creative Mark Vermeer filbert.
Thank you. 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
My pleasure.
Wonderful lesson!
Thanks.
Thank you Dianne, I wonder if it's possible for you to demonstrate this in watercolor?
Yep. I can do that. We'll put it on the schedule.
thanks again.
Are use my fingers a lot to blend and then I put my grays in and let it fully dry before I go back with the lights and the light grays.
Allen, it works best to adjust those grays during the blockin phase.
@@IntheStudioArtInstruction yes that’s how I do it. Then dry. Then I work with light grays and white/yellow for the silver lining. Also a touch of blue in it. 3 passes on the clouds and I’m ok with the outcome.
Fantastic video, thank you so much for sharing!
My pleasure.
Thank you 🌈
You’re welcome 😊
Thanks for a great tip. Am excited to practice it! I have a general question... do you ever tone your canvas before you start a painting?
Normally, Linda, I don't tone my canvas. The way I work, I always set up the notan structure on my canvas as the first step. If, for the notan, I use the lift out process (Refer to Quick Tip 207), I have a slight tone to the canvas, Otherwise, I prefer not toning.

Which medium is this in? Acrylics? Sorry I can't tell;
Oils
Thanks. Great video. How would you do it in watercolor?
Stay tune for a future Quick Tip showing that.
@@IntheStudioArtInstruction - Thanks
Diane; how do you know when your painting is good enough to be considered “finished” ?
Sometimes you don't. But stopping early is more preferable than stopping late. Too much refining can take all the life out of a painting. I much prefer my paintings be slightly under-finished than the least bit overly worked.
You learn to "listen" to your paintings in progress. The time comes with the reference is insignificant, when the painting takes a life of its own and will guide you towards knowing when to put the brush down. Paying attention to the WHOLE painting is key to knowing when it says "Done".
Do you have any course tutorials on acylic landscape painting
Landscape painting with acrylic is no different from with oils. Only the techniques of applying the paint is different, but the same is true for any subject you paint with acrylics. The principles of mixing color and using composition are the same regardless of the materials you are using.
Did you make your own color wheel on your left
Yes. It is available for free (along with other stuff) on the website: diannemize.com/product-category/video-supplements/
Hi Dianne ! love the way you explain your methods 👏🏼 is paint that you use for your tutorials are oil or acrylic?
I use oils. I hardly ever use acrylics.
Dear Mam
If we dont have pathalo as a starter for painting, clouds then can we use cobalt blue or Ultramarine blue for painting sky.
Reply me soon
Thanks

It's the technique and observation of values that matter here. Any dark blue should work.
Needed some help, I mainly use watercolour, do not want to frame with glass. Want to know how can I varnish my paintings. I have checked and do not have access to either Golden or Schmincke products in my reach.

Love the open straight to the point way you teach , I learn something in every video payed and the quick tips .
Thank ypu
very helpful. thx
My pleasure.
Can you make a video on how subtle hue shifts in skintone can be rendered smoothly ? It would be grateful if you answered it :)

I tried a couple of glazes but wonder if there are any tricks you might share thanks Iisa
Lights are best laid in with scumble rather than glazes. Adjust the value on your palette first. It won't take much, so move judicially.
Thank you Diane you have taught me sooo much and inspired me to believe again that human kindness is the best tool we can use to share 🍎🍎🍎🍎🍎🍎🍎🍎🍎🍎🍎🍎🍎
Thank you and your camera person.
Our pleasure.
