@bartoxha Hello and ,thank you ;0)

[lynnpyoung]

I have many pics of the coast here in Newfoundland, actually there's 2 short videos that has my fiances guitar music and pictures that we both have taken over the past couple of years. "Newfoundland My Backyard" and "Newfoundland Still Being Discovered", have a look and let me know what you think?

[alankingwell]

@lynnpyoung I will do ,,thank you ,,I have a workshop full of people here at the moment , so have just popped in for a bite to eat ,,but I will look later.;0)

[lynnpyoung]

Love your work and I have learned so much from you, thanks for sharing your knowledge as I'm a new self discovered painter who lives in arms reach of the ocean. Keep doing what your doing...your an inspiration to me and many!!

[alankingwell]

@lynnpyoung Thank you ,,, you are very kind , I too live close to the coast in Cornwall Its good to know my videos are of help to you .

I am working on a seascape that you may like at the moment, watch this space as they say.;0)

Its a dark stormy sea painted on a black background which I am doing as a dvd but will also put a shortened version on here.

[lynnpyoung]

@alankingwell Sounds very interesting, something I will certainly follow. I would also be interested in your DVD's. I live in Newfoundland and witness many different seascapes on a daily bases, guess that's why I'm drawn to painting ocean scenes. Thanks for your response!

[alankingwell]

@lynnpyoung I would love to see some pictures of your coast, if ever you are out with your camera ;0)

[hevanonangelinitus]

what brush r u using??

[alankingwell]

@hevanonangelinitus Just a worn stumpy old brush ,,nothing special. Its ideal for painting foam.

[uberairbrushexpert1]

Tremendous.

[Kejser73]

Awesome!



[losewitheloquence]

amazing! 

[cremo72cremo]

Stunning technique, many compliments!

[alankingwell]

@cremo72cremo Thank you very much .

[mamaumummynumber1]

Simply beautiful. I always wondered how that to get effect in my seascapes. Now that I have found you, I am sure that I can improve, especially on my present painting. What kind and size of brush are you using? None of my tiny brushes hold paint like yours does.

[alankingwell]

@mamaumummynumber1

Hi ,,I use all sorts of brushes to work with ,,When I have time I am going to do a short demo on brushes , I have nearly finished another seascape which may be of interest to you, it should be on this week.Its the first demo I have done in HD so I hope it comes out ok.

I am still getting used to the new program so the new demo is a little raw, but the video quality will,,,or should be much better.

[cojacbr]

I love it!

[ma98cal]

Almost want to cry at this profound talent! Is there a reference used?

[alankingwell]

@ma98cal Thats nice,,thank you . The water in the seascapes are done by memory and imagination, the only thing I need to get a reference for is the headlands in the distance as this does have to be the right shape , the sea I can make up , as it changes all the time .;0)

[rainitsima]

i like that thank you to show us this technic

[homiluis18]

so beeutiful

[whiteboyfunk1]

We definitely have a common sense of style, it's just I'm about a mile behind you haha..., loved this.

[Usgah]

Well damn that looks real!!!

[jotavich333]

Excellent work! :) Is it acrylic ?

[bobreadartist]

Ditto on Sarl1962s question below...what instrument are you using? Is it a colored pencil?

[alankingwell]

@bobreadartist Hi Bob I am using brushes,,thats all I ever use,,just normal brushes that you can buy in any good art store.

[sarl1952]

could you what tool you are using thank you

[alankingwell]

@sarl1952 There is no tool ,just a paint brush.

[alankingwell]

You may find the Stormy Sunset or Cornish Seascape videos a little more helpful,This one was just finishing off two pictures,some of the others I have on youtube have text to help you through the painting.

I hope this is helpful.

Thank you.

[jeanmunn]

Lovely work, I started oil painting again after many years, some of my work is quite good but I really would like to be able to paint ocean / wave scenes.

I purchased two DVD's about painting waves and foam patterns, I found them to be very poor as far as instruction was concerned and also very complicated for the average student..

You have a wonderful technique, do you have any instructional material available ?

Thank you.

[alankingwell]

Thank you,I am working on some more to add soon.

[fragglefans]

What a wonderful painting. You have inspired me to try oils after having used watercolour for years. I look forward to your next painting. Thank you.

[alankingwell]

@fragglefans Did you ever get the oils out and have a go?
