In this oil painting tutorial I'll show you how to paint a shallow river. We will focus on how to use a glazing technique on shallow water to make it appear 3D and translucent.
I'm a professional landscape artist with over 20 years of experience in oil painting. My KZfaq Channel is dedicated to helping people learn how to paint in oils. I really believe that everyone can learn how to paint!

I joined his classes online and now my paintings went from being 5 star to 9 star!! After one class I understood more about color than any of 30 books or tutorials could get across. THANK YOU Michael!

Hi Michael , Mozart composed over 600 musical compositions in 35 years. This includes symphonies, operas,, concertos, piano selections and many more musical categories. This verifies his genius. Just to let you know where you stand. The Mozart of the art world. Cheers, Fran

Michael, again another stunning picture. It's even better than the physical picture itself. I'm soo appreciative of you giving tips and tricks to doing this oil painting. I've never tried oil painting before and because you've inspired me so much, I tried to paint a bush. My bush look so sad, it look like a big goop in the middle of no where. But I'll try again and hopefully it will turn out a better looking goop. Thank you with all my heart. Please keep your videos going.

I absolutely love this one! I love artwork of transparent water showing the rocks through. And I wish I hadn’t listened to my art teachers who told us not to use small brushes and not to focus on too much detail, now how silly is that advice. 😜

Wow. Just found your channel and sub'd. Watched #52, 51 & this one so far and I'm just blown away by your mad skills! I truly think I loved this one out of the 3 so far but they are all beautiful I just love the "see through" underwater rocks and that look of the water. Thank you so much for sharing your skill with the rest of us. I'm self taught so I rely on folks like yourself for the stuff like you are showing. The up close nitty gritty of one specific thing at a time. At least for me this is a fantastic find knowledge wise as well as a pleasure to watch. Thanks again! Big Hugs!! Reeah.

Also, It is very helpful when you name the video that gives a hint what it is about for us to be able to search and re-watch. This one had an excellent name. Roena

Hi Michael. Your oil paintings are amazing. I used to paint in oils with the wet on wet technique but have spent the last 27 years concentrating on airbrushing. You mentioned while doing the rocks mixing liquid with the paint. What exactly is this liquid you refer to? I know paint thinner is in the larger paint can.

I'm preparing myself to start a new painting project that has rocks underneath the water. This is very helpful in giving the appearance of gleaming, clear, water. I'll put a few rocks protruding out of the water too. Once I'm done, can I show it to you Michael? I would love a professional's critique.
