  Good one Mitch. Yes, the rookie-est of rookie mistakes I see in some of the work, here by folks in Tucson, at our Plein Air club is much too blue skies, most often the very first thing someone puts down, no matter the medium. In a workshop with Matt Smith, years ago here at the Academy, he taught us to be very critical with skies, as you mention, and often put them down last to keep them clean and not muddied up during painting the rest of the scene. That, particularly outdoors, when something "interesting" may happen later in the session that can be used in your sky, if it works well with the rest of the work. Also, nothing is more "rookie" than to paint trees, other backgrounds, over top of a sky, if done alla prima, that's a sure prescription for mud! So, paint the sky around mountains and trees in a landscape; that will keep them cleaner, no matter the basic color of skies! Folks, that one thing will elevate your work from "totally sucking" way up to "mediocre", at least!! LOL ;D

  I’ve found that I actually don’t like colour mixing, haha. I don’t want to spend time struggeling on the palette, I want to be spontaneous and fast on the painting itself, and thinking in terms of limited planned colour schemes helped me! Love stuff like this! So I basically have 4 core colours. Yellow ochre, iron oxide red, prussian blue and ultramarine blue. So my core palette is very muted automatically. I get a muted green, muted violet and muted orange by default, and then if I WANT intensity I bring in backup colours like cad yellow and alizarin crimson. It took me many years to find that I actually don’t need to use the most intense colours that I constantly have to mute. I don’t need the entire colour spectrum all the time - I’m not producing photos. Feeling in control, less complexity, less daunt around colour has really been liberating.

  Nice one Matt! After painting a while you learn what are some of the "money effects" in a painting, and this lesson on shallow water and its transparency, and how to paint it, is certainly up there among them. Folks, beginning artists and others, just can't seem to "get their head around" the fact that they are not looking at some magical effect of transparency, but as you said it's just process, careful technique, and experience that will give you the painted effect, and of course having covered some decent "acreage of canvas" in pigments!! LOL. Sometimes when I paint outdoors and some nice folks stop by to look, they often ask, "how long did you take to paint that"? My stock, and somewhat "cheeky", now that I write this, answer is: "oh, around two hours, ...plus about thirty years." LOL ;D

  What I like about your idea of value studies, is that it matches the medium. In other words it matches the fluidity of watercolor. Also I was imagining myself painting and charging the big shapes as if I was painting in color. Also I think the big connected shape anchors your painting. Thankyou Andy, nice video.

  Another good video, thanks! Some good points made by Matt Smith about a landscapes artist’s situation and opportunities. Where I live is kind of samey, very beautiful, but not much variance. I find myself now trying to find those more special scenes, times, or views (special to me anyway)in the area in an attempt to avoid what most of the other local artists do. Will anyone ever notice? It doesn’t really matter, as I enjoy what I’m doing despite the usual frustrations. In any case, it’s not really practical for me to travel elsewhere for different scenery so I attempt to do the best with what I have. Keep up the great videos!

  Great discussion Gabor and Matt. My "day job" was as a field biologist/researcher for the California Dept of Fish and Game (1975-2008) so, starting in grad school I was attracted to wildlife, naturally, as my painting subjects. And, after I got my job, I spent all my spare time painting wildlife subjects in oil and gouache first, in the studio, then I switched to acrylics, sort of in the style of Canadian artist Robert Bateman. He spent a lot of time getting the landscape right/accurate/believable in his great wildlife paintings, in all habitats and environments, around the globe. (Just like you said, Matt, too many artists just "gloss over" the backgrounds in the "cowboy arts" today). Fortunately, my job took me all over the diverse landscapes of CA, where we had many wildlife habitat studies going. So, eventually, I naturally was attracted to landscape painting, (but, eventually, sans the animals). And then I went back to oils as my medium, in the mid- 90's. As you know, that's about when the "modern" plein air movement began to become popular again. So, I took workshops (including some at the Academy here, and elsewhere, including one in San Diego County where I first met Matt and many of the other PAPA's, in 1998 I think it was), joined art clubs, bought videos, read books, and painted outdoors as much as possible (some were Good, some were Bad, and some were Ugly, cue that great western movie theme music here!! But that's just part of the deal, LOL :D), and I also participated in a few "paint outs" around CA mostly and a few in Co. Plein air events are great to making new artist friends, and getting "new ideas" for subjects, mainly, I found!! Then I began thinking about retirement and wanted to be out of snow country (much as I loved to paint it!!) where I lived near Lake Tahoe, in the Sierra Nevada. Yes, it's a great place to paint, year-round, obviously, and I liked the CA ocean scenes too, obviously. But then I began to see the beauty in the desert when I moved to Tucson in the mid 2000's, after retirement in '08. Now I'm hooked, like you both are, for sure. So, as the great author, environmental activist, and naturalist Edward Abbey, in his book "Desert Solitaire" (highly recommended reading, BTW), says: "There's just Something about the Desert". Now, to many, that may sound like a rather "trivial line" to quote; but once you are in it for a while, and try to paint it too, you begin to finally really "Get It"! Thanks guys, love the chats with the greats, like Matt, that you have and post, Gabor!! Cheers from beautiful and "highly paintable" Oro Valley!!! : )

  Really enjoyed reading about your journey from field biologist to artist. Your transition from wildlife subjects to landscapes, and eventually plein air painting, is quite a path. Moving to Tucson and falling in love with the desert sounds like it was the perfect move. Edward Abbey's "Desert Solitaire" definitely captures that unique beauty.
