Description
Why a Cemetery?
Indeed why a cemetery - it see rather a dark subject - not conducive to creative thought.Once you get past that initial thought a cemetery is often a very well thought out place or reflection and observation, and we can see some wonderful examples of landscape architecture. We found ourselves painting on the old hillside cemetery in Lincoln MA.
I suppose that I can justify painting anywhere as an excuse to paint light and shadow :)
The day in Lincoln
The visit to the cemetery was unexpected but ended up being an interesting motif - the scene was on a hillside in mid October - the autumn color had taken hold and there was a stiff breeze coming up the hill. Several of us became interested in an old oak tree whose branches spread out over the wall and into the cemetery. She was a sapling when the cemetery was first laid out but had grown into a mighty caretaker whose limbs breached the low stone wall and cast rolling shadows across the grounds. The light was the pale yellow tinged light of mid October - your face warms when you face the sun but the back of your neck remains cool. This light fell across the whole scene and glinted off the fallen leaves and weathered Quality of light The light whited washed over the the grounds was golden and I would re create the light with graded washes - The mother color in this instance is the yellow ochre which pervades the scene. The quality of the light is carried by the graded washes which form the sky background and foreground…. These would form the base of the watercolor. The Shadows cast along the ground would strengthen the light and the suns low relation to the hillside - The old oak offered some opportunities for brush play and shadows…
In fact the painting became somewhat of a portrait of the oak - some of the branches still had leaves but mostly they lay strewn upon the ground this offered an opportunity to sketch the wide branches which had a marvelous gesture to them - If I return t will be to marble at this oak tree again…

A problem crossed miming as I looked at the photo - I saw many interesting shapes and patterns in the motif and so from first glance Wanted to create a painting of this view - I felt the light was very flat and the thought occurred to me to ...

    It may seem at first that you're vaguely following a plan, leaving everything to chance, but then I understand how precisely and masterfully you achieve your goal. The same goes for your brushstrokes. Very, very impressive, thank you very much for this demonstration which makes me realize that I've still got quite a job ahead of me....

    Very atmospheric and skilful use of the different line thicknesses - wonderful capture of the lighting conditions. Fantastic result, as if I were standing there in the meadow. And only one clear cow is recognisable enough to identify the rest as a herd, a great trick, thank you! The previous small drawing study of the animal bodies and also the human are very helpful, I am now a lot wiser, because it is one thing to look at these drawings already finished or to observe them in their creation by a practised hand. I usually only look at your watercolour creations and found this a pleasant change. I have one request: could you remove the tape around the picture for the viewer at the end of your sessions? It is so very satisfying to watch. Thank you for all your videos! Greetings from Germany.

    Thanks Gary. Skylines are one of my favourite motifs. I love how the sky turned out. Must switch to yellow ochre instead of raw sienna just to see the difference.
