Thank you so much for your kind comments!

Thank you very much Mavis, I really appreciate that. Let me know if you ever have any questions!

Thank you very much, I appreciate that!

Very happy to hear you found this helpful, I'll be posting more soon. Thanks for watching and commenting!

@@gagnonstudio glad to see your posting more videos, I remember when you first started, you were the biggest KZfaqr for painting lessons at the time- guess because you became busy real fast at that time you didn't post as much...happy to see your back, best wishes to you. Thanks for the full tutorials as well posting on your channel- especially now that your posting videos using oils....greatly appreciated. I remember the tree videos- so many people painted those tree lessons....it was so popular so fast back then..... Can't believe it's been over 13 yrs!!! Seems like yesterday....

Thank you! I appreciate that you took the time to watch, and comment. Hope the videos can help in the future as well.

Thank you! Cheers!

A fellow cloud lover! I love skies as well, mostly because they are beautiful and just have so many different moods and emotions. Thank you for watching!

THank you so much!

Thank you, definitely will have more to come! Thanks for watching!

Glad you'll give oils a try, they are fun, and give you a different experience than acrylics. I love both mediums! Thanks for watching.

@@gagnonstudio I've done it ! It worked great. I'm new to oil painting so it is super welcomed to learn the way you show things. Thanks a lot !

Thank you!

You could take a similar approach with acrylics. The edges might be a little bit harder to pull off because the paint dries so quickly. The difference there is you'll be using light pressure to bring the cloud out into the sky rather than blending. Lighter pressure will make the edges softer when you use less paint around the edges because it will allow the blue sky to show through a little bit making it appear soft and hazy.

Could we do more contour of the clouds to create more depths with similar approach....or would have to wait for the oil paint to dry..very helpful techniques....thanks again for the lesson😃😀👍🏻👍🏻

@@gagnonstudio Thanks for that Tim. Yea, acrylics can be a bit frustrating with fast drying. Great advice though, much appreciated. Dave M 😎🇦🇺🦘

Thank you!

I think that can work. The only problem with gesso is that it dries super super fast and doesn't have the same sheen when it dries, so it can look a little chalky and flat. If you are using it mixed with other colors you won't notice that as much though, so I think it can work well there. I probably wouldn't use it as a highlight color personally but I don't believe in restricting any artist with arbitrary rules. Part of art is using tools and paint in unique ways to create your own style, so if you like using gesso as a mixing tool or as a highlight color you should continue if it works for you.

Hi, I'll check in on that for you. Thank you for letting me know. Can you email me at tim@timgagnon.com with your order number?

I've always used H frame easels. I find they are the most stable and allow for bigger canvases. Brand wise, I use Richeson.

@@gagnonstudio copy that! Thanks, mate.

@@gagnonstudio Tim you talked about this as being a series and you were going to post it as a series progressing into a cloud? I can't find the series for continuation of this series as you mentioned here? Thank you

:)
