Putting physical limitations to your oil studies is a great way to experiment, be bolder and free in your brush marks. Please enjoy my 20 min study that I have created En Plein Air.
I enjoyed watching you paint your quick 20 minute study, and it turned out so well. You achieved a very nice composition and I love your colors. Thank you for sharing your adventure.
Well done, you achieved a great study for 20 minutes. It's amazing what you can do when you're against the clock. Working in those harsh conditions too....
Thank you very much, Vera. I really encourage you to try it. It might be a little challenging at first but really rewarding and meditative . Keep creating! You are doing great!
That was a great demo! 😊. Thank you! I love painting plein air in Winter, though my tolerance for cold is dropping as I age. Nowadays I have knit socks on my hands with the little heating pads in them. I push the brush handle through the weave of the sock, (if coarse woven), or through a hole, if tighter woven. That way I have my fingers directly on the brush and retain full dexterity. Also, when I have to use my bare hands, socks come on and off much quicker and easier than mittens or gloves .
I loved watching this. You're so inspiring and you make it look so easy. I've been a fan of your work on FB and am thrilled to see you have a RU-vid channel. Looking forward to more demos to watch and learn from. I see from your bio, you are also of Ukrainian descent. No wonder you paint so well! :D
Thank you so much! This was definitely not an easy one;) between painting out in a cold, trying to film and deal with people :) lol. But I love a good challenge. Yes, I am from Ukraine :) Thank you for your kind feedback :)
Thank you very much. I have many different set ups when I paint outdoors, depending how big I want to paint or how far to hike. This one is a u.Go box 6”x8” really compact and light. It is perfect for small panels and when you want to travel light
