Simplified Impression: Painting a Landscape with a Simple Process

Video Description

In this YouTube tutorial, I'll demonstrate my loose painting approach, focusing on capturing the essence of a scene with just a handful of colors. With a limited palette comprising warm and cool primaries, along with burnt sienna and yellow ochre, we'll strip away complexity and follow a simple process. This streamlined process not only makes painting more approachable but also encourages creativity and spontaneity. Beginning with the darkest values, I'll lay the foundation of our landscape, quickly building up to the middle values and lights. Along the way, I'll share insights and techniques to help you paint with confidence and flair. As we near completion, we'll add bold impasto strokes in the foreground, infusing our painting with texture and depth. Enjoy the demo and let me know what you think in the comments. 🎉Your FREE Course: https://art.malcolmdewey.art/FreeCourse 🎨 Books by Malcolm: 52 Weeks of Creative Living: https://amzn.to/3WvQV5w 52 Weeks of Creative Mastery: https://amzn.to/3YdXCdU The Creative Awakening: https://amzn.to/3zRjuBx Sell Your Art of Not?: https://amzn.to/3zM6Tzs How to Loosen Up Your Painting: https://amzn.to/4f5Rx9n An Artist's Survial Guide: https://amzn.to/4d7Aq58 An Artist's Guide to Plein Air Painting: https://amzn.to/3Wg5qZO Art Materials: Arches Oil painting paper: https://amzn.to/3YCLW0Y Gouache Paint: https://amzn.to/3tK9V4K Acrylic Paints: https://amzn.to/4bMXZiE Brush Cleaner: https://amzn.to/462ETmx Palette Paper: https://amzn.to/3PvBG9o Color Wheel: https://amzn.to/3HPYnzP Maimer Paints: https://amzn.to/3DZgFh1 Rembrandt Oils: https://amzn.to/3IhJA2m Gamblin Artist Oil Colors Introductory Set: https://amzn.to/2sLyeQh Artists' Grade Gamsol Oil Color Size: 1 Liter: https://amzn.to/2tsbQve Oil & Acrylic Paint Brushes Set. 100% Natural Chungking: https://amzn.to/2QJPs8F Palette Knife Painting Set: https://amzn.to/39Isac6 Artist Paint Brushes - Top Quality Red Sable : https://amzn.to/2rU0oYQ Brush Cleaner: https://amzn.to/2QoLN0R H-Frame Artist's Easel: https://amzn.to/2Fn2UtK Canvas panels for practice: https://amzn.to/2Fmuuax 00:00 Introduction 01:11 Painting Starts 03:19 Middle Values 04:30 Lightest light 05:34 Foreground 06:47 Start Second layer 07:30 Impasto layers 08:31 Develop trees 13:16 Colorful shadows 15:22 Finishing touches 16:23 Painting Reveal 17:12 Free Course
