How to Paint a RURAL LANDSCAPE - Tips For Mixing Grass Greens, Painting Light and Composition

In this video I will show you how to paint a rural landscape that features some atmospheric spotlighting effects. This painting is inspired by the Northland region in northern New Zealand and it originally started as a plein air painting. I then took it back to the studio and added more details to it.
Now, even though this art work started as a field painting I use the exact same painting methodology whether in the studio or painting outdoors.
Check out the written notes that accompany this video. Please feel free to use the reference photos if you would like to have a go at painting this.

I am learning to do oils for the first time and have found your videos so informative. I normally do watercolor, gouache and acrylic and find doing oils such a struggle. My brain wants to revert to my techniques for my water based mediums, which really does not help me achieve what I want with oils. Just watching you paint and you explaining what you are doing and why, is really helping me understand how I need to approach oils. Thank you for your videos!

It will help with the colours mixing. I don’t know about adding the cows though, I’m not a good drawer of animals. Thank you again.

Thanks Kiki. I clean my pochade box on site and then if needs be clean it at home as well. As I often use the same colours when painting in the field I tend to leave them in order on my palette, but periodically I'll use some sort of paint stripper to get all the old paint off and then start again. 😊

@SamuelEarpArtist 4 жыл бұрын

Thanks Ian. The trees are tōtara trees (Podocarpus totara). All the native trees here in New Zealand have Maori names. The Maori alphabet is different to the English one and some of the letters sound different, for example the letter 'O' sounds like 'or'. I do my best to pronounce the Maori names correctly but being from England myself I sometimes get them wrong. 😊
