The paintings of Stefan Baumann reveal the true spirit of nature by transporting the viewer to distant lands that have gone unseen and undisturbed. With the huge success of Baumann’s weekly PBS television series “The Grand View: America’s National Parks through the Eyes of an Artist,” millions of people witness for themselves the magic Stefan portrays on canvas, his passion for nature and the American landscape. By distilling his love of nature into a luminous painting of brilliant, saturated color that transcends conventional landscape and wildlife art, Baumann has captured the hearts and imaginations of a generation. Each painting becomes an experience rather than merely a picture - a vivid manifestation of his special and personal union with nature and the outdoor world. Through his mastery of light, color, and artful composition, Baumann invites you to experience nature in its purity. It is no wonder that for many years distinguished American collectors, including former presidents and financial icons, have sought out his work
Lights with shadows radiates such beauty and awe; it seems so spiritual and scientific all at the same time. We artist are always trying to capture those magnificent angles/angels with its colorful delights.
I was looking at Norwegian paintings and they seemed dark. Then I remembered they don't have light much of the year. I have one small north window light in the studio, so I turned off the lights I normally used and did a self portrait. I had to use a dim flashlight to see what color I was getting from the palette, and I took off my glasses when I painted because I didn't want the glasses in the painting. No need to squint. The result won two awards locally, but if I did that all the time I would go blind!
In my house, I have three bathrooms.
If I have a painting that I think I have finished, or one I have been struggling with, I hang it over the toilet.
Makes it easy to examine every square millimetre, to figure out what to do next - or not do anything with it.
Over the toilet or across from the toilet? the idea of putting my paintings across from my throne of contemplation is hilarious hahaha
Thank you for your videos. I have been watching tutorials from many artists over the last year and have just discovered you at the perfect time. Have just been given some pretty devastating news and not only are you an incredibly gifted as an artist but you are also charismatic enough to engage my attention. Really, thank you!!,
Thanks! I bought bright LED lights to put over my watercolor area, and my paintings look perfect there, but are too dark when I hang them! Here is my answer!
Thank you Stefan Bowmen for the great information shared.will remember this while painting.
Excellent. Thank you
I truly enjoy watching and listening to your knowledge. Thank you so much 💗
Thank you! I really NEEDED this video!!! It changes my whole attitude about painting after the sun goes down!
I really enjoyed this video- thank you for your information! It’s definitely something that I’m going to try!
Thank you, sir, for another insightful lesson. I had that very same problem and it took me awhile before I finally figured it out 🤔. I’m sure your good advice will help someone with a similar struggle 🤗.
I'm moving into a house with a subgrade studio with very little natural lighting. This video made me feel infinitely better about that, thank you so much.
Im glad that I can help, if you have any questions just email me
Fascinating. And very helpful, too. Thank you!!!
It’s just beautiful 🙏🏾
we wait more videos come on you are so mysterious and also good painter
There is ore to come
Great video, Thank you! Any idea for en plein air? My painting became too dark by painting in the light, even the canvase was in shadow.
Great information awesome video
This is good information, but I caution all that this may not always be true. I paint in very bright light and my paintings do not look dark outside the studio. It could be that I am so used to it, that I have learned to compensate. I also believe paintings displayed should have adequate light.
Well said!!
lol, I also needed this video sofa king badly!!! lately, i ain't been able to see wth I'm painting b/c of the light... it is quite the makeshift studio currently... the middle area of my single-wide trailer!!! lol... i must paint... and kind of feel like drinking some top shelf turpentine... (disclaimer: DO NOT DRINK TURPENTINE.... unless it's the good sh!t!)(no, really, don't drink it...)
Glad I could help
So glad I've found you, because for years listening to other artists talking about their studio, all would point out the magnificent natural light from the huge windows, and I would think how hard and HOT it must be in there and how much glare would be on the canvas. Anywho, my studio in my home doesn't have the best light and it does make the light in my paintings brighter, because I have to paint it in to see it good. This is such a great video and I hope a lot of other artists see it to understand you don't have to have the big fabulous studio with floor-to-ceiling Windows. 😎
Is he gonna open his classes back up? Website said they closed them down.
Try my coaching
❤️🙏🏻
Hmm interesting
ah so that's why the brightest star in the sky is the northern star
Is this guy suggesting to paint it he dark? I don’t understand
Hey, it's this Guy! and Yes I am!
I have pink LED lights in my studio
I love pink
Do you have one on stand like he uses on students artwork during critiques? I thought I heard him say 60 watt full spectrum light. Is that LED?
Who was that your brother?
