You are simply unbelievably gifted. Beautiful beyond words. Thank you for sharing this with us. You have, maybe unwittingly, already added joy to my day.
New to your channel. Your paintings are absolutely ethereal!!! So great to see your craft!!! And your voice is soothing. Thanks so much for sharing. Very inspirational ❤
👋Hallo Janhendrik, een prachtig schilderij. Bedankt voor het delen van deze tutorial, ik heb de individuele stappen in me opgenomen en ik feliciteer je met weer een meesterwerk en je geduld bij het voltooien van dit grote stuk. Heb een fijn weekend❤
I continue to find myself amazed at how easily Jan paints these wonder, dynamic clouds. Jan, along with one other painter on YT, have me checking for new content everyday. The soft tone of Jan's voice are something I use on a daily to recover from a day of spreadsheets and calculations. Thank you Jan for your time and effort in demonstrating the pure pleasure of painting. Subscribed and liked. I would like to download the video for Cloud Meets Ocean, but I don't see it being available on Jan's website. Am I missing something? FYI, I signed up for Patreon.
If you're a video patron you should have free access to all my full length tutorials, including the Clouds mMeets Ocean video. Please email me at info@janhendrikdolsma.nl if you're having trouble accessing the full length videos!
I hadn't heard of a new painting and wondered, is he on vacation? No I missed it! Thank you for sharing your painting and filming the progression. Simply marvolous!
Thank you and yes, you're right, I hadn't posted a new video in a while. I was intended to, but (quote J. Lennon) "Life get's in the way, while you're planning other things".
Thank you for your kind words. I work on 6 mm MDF board. Wrote a short article about it on my blog: paintingcloudskies.blogspot.com/2015/01/canvas-or-board.html.
This almost reminds me of tonalism in the sense of the clouds meeting the water, in the same way a tonalist sometimes blends the tree tops or hills etc into the sky or clouds to create mystery. Very Nice
Yes, that's indeed what I'm aiming at. The horizon is not a division between sky and ocean, but the area where they meet. I'm particularly fond of the kind of paintings you describe, where the hills and trees blend into the sky.
The commissioners wanted 2 panels that could be hung as separate paintings, but also form a continuing image. They'll probably hang them as one image, but they wanted to have the option not to. The vertical line in the middle is a consequence of that choice. A 3 meter long single panel is pretty hard to handle indeed, but it's not impossible. Probably need a third easel.
No, it took 2 months to make. Maybe the trailer gave you the wrong impression, but if you'd see the full length video (exclusively on www.patreon.com/paintingskies) it's probably more clear.
