Aww…I bet the owner’s widow would love to have this painting…wonderful job as always!

have been missing your street scenes and burrito runs

A street scene with a classic Dodge Records, paints and teaches without an entourage Looks for relationships in lines and lengths Checks, color, geometry and how light reflects Chats with the owner just a quick hello Experiments with a new color, Indian Yellow Patreon has extra videos and a materials list This is a video not to be missed 🛻 I’m pretty sure my manager will say I “intentionally underwork” too. 😂 I love this painting! The way you suggest the images and capture the reflections are amazing. *No touch ups!* Thanks for sharing! Peace and love..Suz What ☮️💛

Truck turned out great! Your loose style of painting really somehow transfers to the observer and I can’t help but be relaxed by your work. Even your channel is relaxing. Hope that made sense.

I love Indian yellow, mixed with ultramarine, it makes a wonderful dark transparent green.

I love the sculpting of the truck. I learned a lot.

thanks for reminding us all to chill :)

Really nice simplification, and spot on colors, especially for the sidewalk and road. Love the soft edges, too.

That’s a super painting - love the warmth of the old truck - beautifully rendered.

you just might be my new bob ross, your paintings and videos give me a sense of calm like nothing else and inspires me to paint more than ever. thank you❤

Your drawing is a painting in and of itself. Love your style. It’s reminiscent of Hopper. Thank you for sharing your gift.

beautiful beautiful painting wow

14:58 - finished up with a beautiful painting ❤️

Another fantastic video, Michael. I recently retired and have taken up oil painting and have learned a ton watching your videos, thank you for sharing your knowledge and enthusiasm. This video in particular has special meaning for me; my dad had the same truck when I was a kid and he taught me how to drive it when I was about ten years old.

Another quick and lose painting by my favorite artisan.

I like your loose almost impressionist style on a contemporary object like this. Great results and great product, and as usual a lot of great instructions and things to try next time I go out to paint.

Hehe, the greys you get from the "I don't know what's in this mix" are usually the best :) I find watercolour does this extremely well.

I love this channel! Makes me smile anytime I see a notification pop up with a new video. Your work inspires me Michael. I just recently got the exact brushes you use and color pallet. I know we have to find our own way of doing things but hey it’s one heck of a start for me following someone I admire. Also the Patreon group is a no brainer if your not a Patreon member I suggest you join so many gold nuggets in there your missing out so take my advise and joon thank me later. Have a wonderful day everyone.

Great painting. Always good to stretch ourselves and get away from our usual subjects.

Michael thank you so much for this video I really learned a lot from it. Love your loose approach and how you avoid worries about defining little details with your #8. Can't wait to try this to "keep me out of trouble" on my next piece.

awesome piece! has that 50's feel for sure!

This is amazing! You are an inspiration to me x

Really enjoyed the painting Michael. Change of scenery and subject matter but loved the classic truck. Inspirational that you just used the one brush. Brilliant work as ever.

Wow. Amazing

Brilliant painting, sir! It's awesome. So cool episode. I enjoyed it very much. Beautifully painted. It seems you can paint everything! The lady should buy this painting of her husband's truck right away. Have a wonderful day! Greetings from the EU!

The big challenge with any plein air for me is perspective, always perspective. If I get that wrong everything else falls apart, no matter how spectacularly I paint the focal point.

Love this one! The neighborhood paints have been super nice, Also bring back a surfing video or two when the weather gets a bit warmer, it’s getting there but the water can make things very chilly

I’ve been following you for sometime now and really enjoy seeing the improvement in design and your use of color…keep up the daily effort. Blessings

Gives me confidence Thanks

Wow! You did an excellent job. You make it look so easy! I’ll have to remember the squinting.

very informative. thank you!

I love painting old trucks and cars. I paint in watercolors but enjoyed watching how you used oils to do your truck painting. Thank you for sharing.😊

Love this, great style. Those old trucks are so cool. This will sell quickly.

wow, great work Richard!

I love it! Beautiful work!

Fabulous , do you know what I got up at 3am for an age related visit to you know where 😂 and for some reason saw this on my iPad and couldn’t stop watching it ,, best get back to bed now otherwise the misses is gonna start worrying ,, going to watch it again later today on the big screen 👍👍🎨

Looks great dude!!!

Great video Michael - I really love your recent urban paintings

Love the painting!

Follow up response: Really like how you limit your overworking by staying with the biggest brush you can, or a single brush. No nitty gritty. Less is more.

i think this is a difficult painting to pull off but you have managed to do a brilliant job. I love the looseness of it all... I would have loved to see also a studio version of it but thank you for sharing. Amazing!

Looks great!

great instructional video. The words were right at the right time, your brushwork was great. your philosophy was right on. Really enjoyed, makes me want to get outside and do it.

I love your suburban posts! 👏🎨👏

Stunning man!

I binged watching your videos every weekend fr.

Brilliant, love it

Very nice...like the chrome and grill area especially!

Ambitious subject! But you nailed it

Great painting, great explaining.

Good one Michael . Funny I was looking into getting Indian yellow myself. Cheers

I love the subject and th epainting, so good!

Love it

Great job!

Loved this!

Damn! so great. Exciting.

I love it.

Cool

Love it!!

Part of me was hoping at the end that you said you gifted the painting to the woman who's husband died.

Michael, thank you so much for your wonderful videos. They have gotten me through some pretty tough times in the last year+ going through cancer treatment. I always look forward to your videos, just wish they were longer. Getting back into painting again, yay!! I love your very impressionistic approach. I just received some Rosemary Co long flats, natural fiber brushes and will be ordering the synthetic flats you use. Wondering what brush you use for your initial composition drawing in burnt sienna. Also, do you thin your blocking in process with gamsol only, or maybe mixed with Galkyd? 50/50? Again, many thanks for encouraging me to get back to painting!! Will be joining your patreon page very soon.

Very nice! thanks for sharing.

Nice!!

amazing it looks beautiful

I notice you don't strike your eye level across the panel first to register the position of shapes. You seem to work through this naturally. The line can really assist in elevation relationships. Always enjoy your seascapes.

( the sketch , love the fender at 2:20 , and two , adjacent , yet below the drivers windshield , no one sees that, yet, I can’t “ not “ see imagery, however it is beautiful already 😊😎

Indian Yellow has an interesting history about how it was created in India.

#8 natural for the whole painting? same brush throughout? How do you clean it in between? I LOVE this painting! Learned a lot about background shapes and neutrals mixes and why it's important to not get hung up on details!!!

Wow, excellent work! It really is impressive how you did so little to the headlights, just suggesting light and dark, and yet they read so realistically. I know you showed a watercolor of this on Patreon. Did you make that in the same session, or consider it a study for this? (Sorry if you mentioned it and I missed it.) It is interesting that you’ve added Indian Yellow to your palette. I’ve been on an Indian Yellow kick recently. It’s such a beautiful warm, transparent yellow.

すごい！🙌

You took a real risk of someone moving the truck in the middle of the painting. Was worth it.

👌 ..

Hi! I'm curious if you could share some information about the finish of your paintings. You seem to apply the paint rather thinly so do they dry with a glossy or matte appearance? I appreciate your technique of scrubbing the paint, which I find easier to work with, too. However, I also love the glossy finish of thick impasto. Additionally, I was wondering about the effect of working on a board surface. I know you coated it, but doesn't the material still absorb some of the oil? In my experience, boards always seem to absorb at least some oil no matter how well they're coated.

😀👍

Love it! I'm a fan of car paintings with a loosen style and this one has it all Mike. Hey I've seen a lot of videos from SF with car break-ins...are you safe down there? The world has gone seriously to shite in the last few years. I'm starting to see many things oddly off about modern society and global governments, don't know if you can concur. Haven't you noticed a big decline lately?

pssst, ( good morning Michael ; ) 😊 , it’s so good to see you again 🔍

🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉seeing you paint I realize that I suck in painting!😡😡

Are you inspired by Edward Hopper? Salute 😎

Would you consider making a Lynyrd Skynyrd painting? Thanks!

Great tutorial thanks, question do you squash vehicles intentionally. cause I’ve noticed often when you paint a vehicle that they’re more squashed on the Y axis - the left to right axis. Your windshield is very different than the actual one. On purpose or is that just kind of your look? Thanks.

Just came across your channel. Really like what you are doing and how you are presenting it on your channel. I do have a couple of questions. As in this painting, It looks like you are just holding your camera with one hand with an occasional shot from a tripod maybe. Or do you have it mounted on yourself somehow. What kind of camera? Your phone or GoPro or? ALSO...what kind of panel are you doing your 16x20's on? Thanks much and I look forward to going through your other videos.

Suppose this makes you a pickup artist now.
