Plein Air & Studio Painting: St Anthony Head Cornwall
Тәжірибелік нұсқаулар және стиль
This oil painting began life en plein air in Cornwall on a mild March morning this week. I headed for St Anthony-in-Meneage and painted the view across the bay towards St Anthony Head on the Roseland Peninsula.
I wanted a good view of Carrick Roads from the Lizard for my exhibition at Truro Museum this summer. I wasn't disappointed! It was an amazing morning painting outdoors and actually quite warm in the March sunshine!
After a couple of hours working on location, I headed back to the studio where I let the painting dry for a few days before completing in the studio at Krowji, Redruth.
I painted onto a 60cm x 40cm plywood panel using my regular palette of oil paints:
Titanium White, Cad Yellow, Lemon Yellow, Cad Red, Magenta, Raw Sienna, Raw Umber, Violet, Ultramarine Blue, Cobalt Blue, Manganese Blue and Ivory Black. I also used turpentine and my homemade medium: turps, Stand oil, Damar Varnish.
For the studio session I used Winsor Red instead of Cadmium Red.

I thought at first a picture with mainly a huge expanse of sea would make for an uninteresting picture but,you proved me wrong.Very nice outcome.

My thoughts exactly Christopher. If the sky had been more interesting (stormy) I would have lowered the horizon

Thank you very much Veronica. Manganese is a good (and cheaper!) alternative to Cerulean blue. The rigger brush is a good one to have 😃

Thank you so much James. I like the high view point. I particularly liked the openness and the patterns of the currents in the water
What a beautiful day and beautiful painting! Your clouds are perfect I loved watching you paint those. Another fantastic job. Can’t wait to see the exhibition and hope you manage to get a catalogue printed as it would be a lovely thing to take home. Thanks for sharing

Thank you very much Jennie I really enjoyed painting the clouds. The water provided some problems to overcome so the sky was a nice distraction 😃
Beautiful! Amazing how layering the water colors made it so lively. You did a great job! Ps- I'm now using my rigger brush much more. It's very fun and makes great textures and it's very freeing as well. Thanks Andrew for another truly lovely painting! You're a great inspiration!

Thank you so much Lynette. I love layering the paint. That’s why I like to take the plein air work back to the studio and put more paint on when dry (quite often) 😃
Great atmosphere with good tone differences Andrew. Happy painting 🎨👍

Right on my doorstep there :) I like the 'rag' you cleaned your brush with in the studio, I recognised where that came from immediately! Lovely work again Andrew.

Something about the very beginning with the horizontal line and your sky with the Indian red that I love... I know there is so much more, but the abstract quality is beautiful.

Thank you Michael. I wish I was brave enough to leave some of my paintings in their ‘unfinished’ state where I like the abstract quality in them. One day ….. 😃
When I saw that plywood board with dark red tone I thought what a mess this is going to be. BUT, the plywood works well for deep water. Very nice painting!

Thank you. It’s not a colour I would normally start with but it’s good to experiment 😃
Nice treatment of the sea, so bloooo. That tiny bit of land jutting in from the left design wise is a mistake. It should either not be there, which would make the pic even less interesting, so I guess you should have used artistic licence and made it longer and deeper.

Thanks for your comments Jim. Too blue for me really but it was the dominant colour/ feeling of the morning. You have a good point about the little spit of land. A painting is never finished really is it? I may alter things as I look at it over the next few weeks 👍🏻
