Brushes: Please use these as a guide of what I am planning to use. These are brushes I use very often. You do not need to have the exact brand of brushes that I use. When it comes to a Bright you might be able to use a single bright as one way to save money. My students often paint with different tools. I believe you use what you have and are comfortable with until it doesn’t work for you. This list of brushes and information should be used as a guide and I highly recommend you make this work within your own personal budget or painting process.

I am calling this “Loss”. I designed this as a tattoo, after losing my Army Battle Buddy to suicide only 5 months after returning home from deployment. I am still devastated by her loss and wish I was a better painter to really do justice to the loss I am trying to convey. The sun definitely stopped shining the day I lost my friend. Thank you for teaching how to paint the sad eye. I know mine isn’t even close to yours but way better than I would have done if I hadn’t seen your video. Thank you

4 Plein Air Tips
Water is perhaps one of the more challenging subjects to paint convincingly in a plein air landscape painting. Whether one is inspired by the ocean, a river, or a pond or lake, each subject requires a studied familiarity and often distinctly different paint handling. Here are a just a few tips that we consider helpful when painting water:
1: The sky and the water generally share the same colors, although the water will be darker in value. Draw a solid horizon or shore line and block them in at the same time to make sure they have shared colors.
2: Ocean waves in constant motion present a challenge for the plein air painter because you want to capture the movement and the light effects that occur in breaking waves. The wave changes color and value as it gains height and thins out just before breaking. Until a wave begins to break, it shares the color of the sky. As it rises, it becomes a transparent window into the wave itself, and so turns greenish, and may even pick up the color of the sand for an instant just as it breaks. A great way to quickly get proficient at painting waves is to paint with only a palette knife.
3: Still water on lakes, ponds and even placid rivers presents the challenge of painting reflections, often filled with sunrise or sunset colors. Maxfield Parrish used to build a model landscape on a mirror in order to get his reflections right in his realistic studio paintings. In plein air, however, we must analyze on the spot, and render those reflections in a much looser, more gestural way. Unless the reflection is your subject, try rendering it as a large tonal mass of color, rather than a lot of individual strokes. Keep in mind that reflections are always darker than the object itself. Water surfaces scatter light and therefore are not perfect mirrors. It gets really complicated when a reflection is combined with transparency effects in shallow water, where the bottom can show through to the surface.
4: Painting water-lilies or leaves floating on water adds an object and therefore a shadow onto a reflective surface, interrupting what could otherwise be a smooth expanse of color. A good approach with opaque mediums is to paint the water first and add the reflections, objects, and shadows, later. Watercolor requires an entirely different approach and multiple techniques–carefully painting the surface colors around any objects or reflections, leaving “holes” to fill in later. There isn’t much room in watercolor to fix mistakes and perhaps that’s why we like it. But there is something very synergistic about using watercolors to paint water that just feels right.
