I love how you seemingly take disorganization and make it come together in lovely colors and a tight landscape. What is the paint you are using? What is the medium mix?

Thank You... I'm a bit late in replying this one must have slipped under the redar...

For these mainly acrylic...

Lovely piece Suncage. I really like the paintings and the way you have displayed them in the video is really helpful.

I have painted quite a few plein air paintings but have not carried out a series. That is my new years resolution now for 2008.

Thank you Geof. It means a lot to me to know that it is of use. If you are intending to design a contract with yourself to paint from life on a regular basis you might like to read some of 'The Limner's Contract' on my homepage.

Good luck with your resolution.....

Very nice work. I'll have to try out some of those techniques. Thanks for posting these videos. I am trying to become a plein air painter, and I am struggling with it, so it helps to watch good painters such as yourself.

You're welcome, please don't struggle with it... all you have to do is sketch on site, the rest is subjective. Just enjoy what you do and trust your eyes...Have fun..

Suncage... what medium do you mix with your acrylics??

Very Nice... your video has reminded me of some things that my instructors 35 years ago had taught and I had forgotten. Great video, Great paintings... keep up the good work!!
