Advancing with Watercolor: on location - NYC "The Vendors of Central Park"
This video was done after a week of plein air painting with watercolor in New York City. It is part of a series of videos featuring Central Park, Bryant Park, Times Square, and Dumbo park at the Brooklyn Bridge. The workshop lasted six days and each day was a new adventure . In this video I in this video I have selected the motive of vendors in Central Park and shown how I constructed the painting to emphasize figures and vendors along I main road in central park. This is a longer video and I attempt to describe some of the reasons that I enjoy playing air painting and feel it is an important practice for every artist. I talk a lot about the use of the brush the quality of the brush about the design of the painting and using a compositional stem, as well as other aspects of working on location. One of the few videos that show the brush work in real time.
In each video I will address some of the challenges with each motive and ways to meet those challenges. Along the way I hope you experience the same thrill of working in the city of New York under an open sky that we did.

Many thx Tammy
Amazing painting and very beautiful explanation, Sir. Thanks for sharing.
Great tutorial and painting. Thank you for the 'real time'. You are such a good instructor! thank you!
Love the real time! Not a boring moment! Please do more!!!
Thank you so much for posting. Wonderfully informative of your process and absolutely love your finished painting!
Great demo, I like that slower speed, shows what care you really take when painting, thank you.
Good to see real time painting. I really admire your style enjoyed eavesdropping on the lady's comments too 🤣
Very enjoyable watching your paintings develop. I purchased the mop brushes that you suggested in your .pdf and understand the reason that you like painting with them.
Real time video is so good to watch!
Gary you are a hero!
Really captured the day here, again a lovely lovely painting. Thank you Gary.

Thank you for sharing your impressions with me :)
Most enchanting park in the world🌷❤️
At last a chance to see a painting in real time, thank you very much Gary. It was very exciting and revealing. The speeded up versions give a misleading impression of how much care is taken over brush strokes, apart from making paint-alongs difficult. I strained to hear your comments over the noise and chatter of spectators but it was worth it. Lovely feeling of a busy Central Park.

Barbara Gemin I agree with everything you said. It was difficult to follow but I loved it still.
I loved watching in normal time. The conversations made it difficult to hear what you had to say but I did love hearing the saxophone and the passerby’s. I do wish the lady had not been talking so much, although I did love hearing her comments and questions, just not during your monologue. Other than that I LOVED IT!!!!
This is Wonderful 🍀✅💚 Specially I liked composition & use of colour of this paintings very much❤️ I also love to do Watercolor paintings on the plein Air 💚🍀🌍
Another lovely painting, in real time, and excellent commentary. Pity for the adjacent conversations that marred your wonderful video. Thank you Garry.
Enjoy plein air painting wish you all the best.
Had to watch it again Gary, love this painting. I had to chuckle though. In the background you are talking with a lady about your brushes and you said “ I keep them until they are sticks...then I say a little prayer and let them go. Classic.

@Terry Jefferson I watch on FlixZone. You can find it by googling :)
Gary, just another phenomenal piece of work! I needed to concentrate to filter out what was being said in the background so I did not miss your narrated words. I soon realized that part of the background was you talking to others while you were actually painting. So as not to miss a word of my favorite teacher I went back and concentrated on your unedited conversations. Your methodology is challenging but your results are are so intriguing I do not mind producing inferior works while refining your methods myself. Thanks, Robt

Great to see the real time! But I almost couldn't understand your comments because of the background noise.
love the women speaking in the back
Lovely painting. I wish you would watch a video on sound mixing so the video is up to the same quality. 🙂
Great video thanks! Never been to NYC, so loved hearing to background noise....did the lady know you were filming?? Lol!!

Edgar Payne! Composition of outdoor painting.
How did u make those white shades (like smoke) in the stalls?
Which brand of brushes do you use? Many thanks.
why was your phone on? :-)
I meant the make of the mop brush ...
I have hearing problems and couldn’t cope with all the competing voices in this.
thank you
Really love these videos. I do really good artwork. But I stress myself out over length of time plein airing, sun, humidity, end result, very technical and tight in my rendering. I have to admit I tend to be people shy. I don't exactly like strangers I dont know walking up on me to see my painting. While its flattering... maybe its assumptive of me but I feel they are slightly rude. Just because I'm painting its not an open invite. Granted privacy isnt happening in a public space but eeesh. I tend to see it as like someone writing in their journal or working on their laptop at a coffee shop you dont hover over them.
The background audio is very distracting but great process as always
Gary, I love your videos and have just watched about fifteen of them in a row. I've learned a lot so I'll pass along a tip of my own. There's this thing called a volume control that allows you to reduce the volume of the background noise. That way, your words can be heard. I'd suggest watching your videos before publishing them, too, so it 's easier to notice when they are unwatchable. Hey, being a painter is no excuse for making lousy videos any more than being a videographer is an excuse for making lousy paintings. Having such a likeable personality in addition to a great talent for watercolor, I'm guessing you have a sense of humor as well, and can tell when you're being teased. How about you promise not to show any more videos like this and I promise not to show anybody my paintings. Deal?

Thx - Ill do my best
background noise was too distracting to hear your normal excellent commentary
No me gusta.
This is unlistenable. In future, I think your narration should be a little louder, or perhaps you could reduce the volume of the location recording. The levels are too similar. It's hard to follow to your analysis. I gave up on this video. Too difficult. Annoying to try to listen to.
