Your rendering of cars is one of the things I've admired most in your cityscapes. Oddly even though they are one of the least defined most abstract parts of the painting - they read realistically. Thank you for sharing

Thanks. I struggled to paint them in the past, but I really enjoy painting them now.

Thanks. This demystifies how to break down the shapes and lights and darks. I’m feeling less intimidated about cars now.

wow, the talent here is overflowing. it's so simple yet so detailed at the same time, incredible work

Hi Michael, I've looked at a lot of your plein air painting videos of which I would guess 75% are seascapes/landscapes and I've also been looking at many of your previous paintings over the last 4 years, at the Studio Gallery, and I have to say although I like your seascapes, I much prefer your cityscapes with buildings and people and cars. There's something about those paintings, stronger graphic elements, more dynamic, and a more vibrant palette, but I also think it's the activity of the city and its lights and action that draw me in. I'd really like to see more videos of the cityscape paintings.

I loved this demo Kevin, it is very helpful.

Michael, Have you ever discussed in one of your videos how you keep from going down a rabbit hole and painting in details that are time consuming and better left out or only rendered in the loosest of fashion? I sometimes find myself circling the black hole of detail on a painting that started out loose and is looking good but then I, without knowing it, get sucked into the hole.

Yes, I talk about squinting your eyes to eliminate details. I also talk about focusing on big shapes. Hope that helps!

you are insanely talented, sir.

Excellent work as usual 🖼️🖌️🎨

Thanks Jeff!

I've been watching your Videos for a few weeks now and I actually got into painting again and I'm really learning a bunch of cool new stuff !! Keep up the great work :)

Excellent demo. The cars are very convincing and still painterly.

I find it is very difficult to simplify complicated objects and scenes. What details to include what to left out, how to extract the most important shapes and values to be not so detailed but realistic at the same time, etc. I always got confused in the process of my painting, and I have a few paintings I can’t finish because of that. I think you are so so so good at this (and a number of other things of course). Watching this helps me, and I wish to see more demo videos on how to make decisions on the aspect. ❤️ awesome work and videos!

You definitely have a knack for abstraction that seems so natural. Beautiful work as always!

Painterly! Art is very satisfying when objects are identifiable but take imagination and mental work to place the details. Love your work.

Thank you so much for demoing car painting. I have such a hard time knowing just how much to put in, what to leave out, this was great, cheers !

You make difficult things turn out easy, using your method. Txs!

Excellent

Pretty incredible. Thanks so much for sharing your knowledge.🙏🏻✨

What do I think? Well...you crushed it on those cars. Digging your energy from Michigan.

Just what I needed to see today! TY ❣️

Love this painting. Wonderful colour palette and brushwork.

Very cool! I was kind of waiting for this video. Great process, very well solved. A car line is always very tricky to paint. Thanks Mike!

I’ve been a fan of yours from Studio Gallery, so it was such a fun surprise to find this particular demo. Always wondered about your cars and the colors you chose for your buildings-because I live in SF and all I see is tan and gray. Cityscapes always stumps me with trying to simplify and this was a very good demo of how you are accomplishing this simplification! Thanks so much.

I Love your working

glad i stumbled upon your channel again, it's what i need to get the creative juices flowing. thank you so much!!

i love this! don’t stop doing these videos, they are amazing and it consists of a wonderful hobby/career and your skill is amazing! so talented

Love the way you paint, full of life and energy.

Do you think it’s appropriate to oil paint on dry wall primed with gesso? How would it compare to masonite? Love your videos!

@chamberlainpaintings

3 жыл бұрын

There are professional painters that paint on cardboard, so you can paint on any surface that works for you. Drywall is very heavy and not particularly strong, so I wouldn't paint on it. Hardboard like masonite is the way to go. Maple or birch plywood are other options.

chamberlainpaintings Thank you! We have leftover drywall from a recent renovation. I’ll probably mess around with it to use it up, but I definitely want to try masonite long term!

This is really good also do you know emma chamberlain or do you just have the same last name

Unrelated to car painting, but do you recommend the artboxandpanel easel with the tripod (Coulter?) for plein air painting or your larger wooden one (brand?). Thanks!

I noticed they seem to have the same tray. What is the model of the wooden one?

@chamberlainpaintings

I made my own paint box/easel set up, modeled after the Coulter system. I prefer the Take It Easel, which is the bigger, wooden one, but it's good to have both. I use the same palette box on both easels. I'd go with the bigger if I could only have one. The bigger one is not as good for small panels however. 11x14" and under.
