I wanted to repost a video that has not been available for some time although it was very popular on YouTube. This time I posted it with Gbox. I used the larger embedding format which I thought was more visually accessible.The video is free although I have allowed for donations up to a dollar if you feel the video helped you with your painting. But either way I hope you enjoy the video and let me know what you think of the ideas and the Gbox presentation. I really do appreciate your feedback.
At the bottom of the page I include a link to a fantastic book that expands on ideas about zones and many other topics critical to landscape painting. I think it is one of the best books on the subject.

awesome painting Brad, I am really liking that piece. just bought that book this week by coincidence. gbox isn't loading for me, try later.
ReplyDeleteThanks for your patience Bruce. I will check on the Gbox issues, too.
Deletestill not loading, white wheel spins forever.
DeleteThe painting is beautiful! I am not able to load the video though...
ReplyDeleteBtw I downloaded your 53 paintings book from Amazon and now I have an invaluable treasure with me, thank you!
Thanks for letting me know about the Gbox issues. It is still in beta but I will see what can be done to insure a proper download. Thanks for your patience. So glad you enjoy the digital book! I appreciate your support so much.
DeleteGreat painting, Brad. Very good composition with lots of interest!
ReplyDeleteWhat blues did you use for the topmost sky? Cerulean? Manganese?
I used pretty much every blue I have–Ultramarine, Thalo, Cerulean, but no cobalt. Thanks for the kind words.
DeleteThank you. I just picked up a tube of cerulean a few days ago. i haven't bought one in years. I mainly use Cobalt Blue, Pthalo Blue, and Ultramarine. But I've wanted to explore others. I used to use Prussian Blue, but don't like how it changes over time. Cobalt is my favorite. I see it more as a true blue. Ultramarine can be too violet, and pthalo too green. but they all have a place on my palette!
DeleteIt really is a beautiful painting. You've done a great job on this one!
