ALL About LANDSCAPES | An Airbrush Painting Lesson

This video is the first part on advanced landscape painting using an airbrush and acrylic paint. I tried my best to take a complicated painting and simplify it, so hopefully this one is helpful to some of you out there. Thanks for watching!

    Beautiful work! Your Princesse de Broglie was a masterpiece, but I'm in love with this advanced landscape. Thank you for your time, effort, and patience. You are the only person I've found on KZread who recreates the classic masters with an airbrush while teaching art history at the same time (and for free too). You are an excellent instructor and could be the next Bob Ross of airbrushed landscapes, one cloud at a time. Looking forward to seeing you finish these Almighty mountains. 👍

    this is so inspiring... 🤗😍 Can someone try with structural mass or Marble dust to model parts of the mountains? I suspect that this makes a few effects easier and better. 🤔😋

    Love this video! This is helping prep for a commission and had questions where to start. I was wondering though, in terms if prepping the canvas or surface your painting, how do you transfer or draw on the landscape template? And also, how to do you get the tracing paper to match the shapes of the landscape template?

    I rarely paint on a black surface with an airbrush, just because I'm mainly using a subtractive technique for highlights. The fire painting I did on the channel a few weeks back was on a black surface. It was gessoed and painted black before I started airbrushing on it.

    great videos. Thanks. I have a question. Is it possible to paint oil paintings with an airbrush where the main medium is linseed oil? The pigment should be very transparent to have the right viscosity. What parameters should the airbrush and compressor have for this type of work? thanks a lot

  • @theartworkshop

    Don't spray oil paints through an airbrush ever. So many dangerous pigments in many oil paints. ONLY use airbrush paint- very important.

    Can you "hand" erase right away, or do you wait for the paint to dry or set a bit?

  • @theartworkshop

    @theartworkshop

    I usually wait about a minute or so. If the paint is still wet it tends to smear rather than erase.

    of course! I use Staedtler mars rasor erasers and Faber-Castell 7058b in erasers. I usually just buy them on Amazon but they are sold at most art supply stores as well.

    @@theartworkshop Cool. I'm feeling the need for a new piece. I have plenty, but you know there's always room for more. I'm thinking a Sotar or a PS771. Probably the latter, since I don't currently own a Micron. My oldest brush that I still use is an old school HP-C. That thing is still the most reliable workhorse in my arsenal, after being with me over 20 years.
