Absolutely breathtaking
Unlike most other tutorials you really explain what you are doing, and why and how you are doing it which is invaluable and worth the patreon sub. Thankyou!
Awesome sky!!!
I study skies real or not, and that is beautiful, EXTREMELY BEAUTIFUL SKY!!!
I've been watching and trying tutorials for a month now as a very beginner and giving up 5 minutes. No matter how I tried my paint was not looking anything like the video. Then I found your how to load your brushes video and suddenly I could paint a normal looking "swipe". In this desert sunset tutorial you not just say pick up this color paint here, but you explain how much paint, why and how much pressure on the brush. This is "life changing"!!! I can do this! Now that I know what i'm supposed to be doing. Your is the only video out of literally hundreds I've watched on youtube that does this. Thank you so so much!!! I am self taught in many types of art and I didn't want give up on acrylics!
Your tutorials are so easy to follow. I’m an artist but even people who aren’t artists can easily become one just by following your tutorials.
Jane, love watching your tutorials, you are a great teacher!
Thank you so much, Anne
I did this tutorial a couple months ago. Thank you for making this very doable for someone who is still learning this whole painting thing. I appreciate you explaining everything and your calm demeanor. This is my favorite so far!
What a gorgeous painting. I only paint with oils but I just have to try this one anyway. Wish me luck!
I loved how it doesn't feel rushed and you take your time and explain. I wish you did more like this one. You did a great job.
Hi Jane. I will take up the challenge ... it will not be easy but I will try ... Thank you. Have a great day.
Can't tell you how happy I am to find your channel ! Your tutorials are excellent. Thanks so much for sharing your amazing talent. I am just beginning at age 58. Your explanations are so helpful to me !
Thank you so much, Antoinette! I'm so happy I can help you 💛
Beautiful Jane! I just LOVE that sky❤️
Jane you are by far the best teacher I have come across so far, you demonstrate everything so clearly - brushes, canvas colours etc., and above all you speak so clearly....you do some lovely work. Many thanks for your tutorials. Kind regards Thelma Queensland.
Thank you so much, Thelma! You're very kind 💛
I am mesmerized by your colorful sky! Unbelievable!
I had so much fun with this one! Thanks Jane!
I have been wanting to paint this exact scenery for some time but never know how to start, Thank you Jane, you are an awesome tutor!

This is one of my favorite painting your done! I live in Arizona and I have a giant Saguaro Cactus in my back yard. I love the sky. The pink and the little bit of white at the end of the sky really popped it!!!👏👏👏❤️🎨
Thank you so much, Nancy!!
Absolutely beautiful I love it another one I must paint! Thank you so much Jane you are such a awesome teacher!♥️
You are so welcome, and thank you!
So so cool...
I am mesmerized by your talent. You're my very favorite! Thank you for sharing your gift, I've learned so much from you! Many blessings to you
I like that it ended up being more than a black silhouette. I absolutely love it! And you are a great teacher, as always. I have learned so much from you.
Thank yo so much, Annette! I'm really glad I decided to give them a little color too :)
Wonderful!! I just lov this! The colors are amazing! Going to try!! This is a great painting, one to have on your wall and look at and dream! 😊 Thank you for sharing!!! 😄
sublime , le tableau!!!!!♡♡♡♡
Such a beautiful painting. It looks so real just like our Arizona sunsets. Beautiful!!
Just missed the live.. watching the replay now, this is gorgeous!! ❤️
Thank you so much, Annie! Hopefully I'll see you at the next one!!
Beautiful colors! Staying up to do this with you!
It was nice chatting with you, Tink! I hope you enjoy painting it!
Beautiful! Thank you for this tutorial! I learned how to make clouds, monochrome which is my favorite because the bright colors scare me. I have so many photos through the years of sunsets and sunrise, that I have to dig in and get comfortable with it. This really helped. :)
Love the Indenthrene blue mixed with payne's grey !!!
Such a luscious color, isn't it!!
Amazing sky 👍🏼
Thank you, Nasser!
Your tutorials have helped through this crazy Covid thing. I appreciate your thorough explanation in all the tutorials I've tried. This desert sunset is my favorite so far and it's actually hanging inside my home instead of in my "garage gallery."
Thank you so much. I'm so glad I could help you weather this crazy storm. Keep growing that gallery! 💛
Always love your tutorials 😍 Thanks !
Thank you 💛
So professional and fun!!! :D
Beautifully done, really well explained and easy to see what you are doing. Brilliant! Thanks for sharing. I am inspired to give it a go...
Love the very colorful sky. Great art teacher Jane .🎨
Thank you so much
Beautiful
This is beautiful. I enjoyed the tutorial so much.
Thank you so much, Joyce!!
It's Sunday.. the video comes out Tuesday. How has somebody justified down voting it when they haven't even watched it yet?
Meh. Haters gonna hate :)
@@PaintingwithJane I love your attitude!
Beautiful painting
Thank you so much, Janice
This reminds me of a sunset I took a picture of the other day. At the tree line it was a really bright blue (maybe a really bright turquoise), the brightest sky blue I've ever seen. The many photographs I took didn't do it justice. Maybe it wasn't as bright as I thought, but wow It was gorgeous with the sun hitting the streaks of clouds above the blue. It was similar to your painting, but no yellow at the tree line. The sun wasn't over the tree tops anymore, so the blue of the sky stood out the most. I dunno, to me it was special lol
I absolutely loved this painting. The colors are gorgeous and I loved the added colors to your silhouette. You are so good at instruction for the clouds. Thanks for the tutorial. I will be doing this one soon as I can.
Thank you so much, Theresa! I'm so glad you enjoyed it!!
This is so beautiful! I will try it.Your Voice is so calming. Greetings from Germany from Dani
Wow thanks dear 💕💕i was looking for this 🙏😇😇👌👌you are a great teacher. 🙏💕
What a beautiful painting!
Thank you 💛💛
I missed the live, too. So lovely, Jane
Thank you so much, Jana!
Very lovely
Unlike other tutorials urs are the best one and u love i so much♥️😭
Ya know.... Even if you put live rainbows and a pot of gold on here someone will still put a dislike on it lol. My reminder is set :-)
It's true! So I don't let it bother me. I'll just keep being me and doing the things that make me happy 😊
You forgot puppies, kittens and unicorns! 😄
Awww the poor unicorns lol 😝
awesome music so relaxing
I may reserve a room at work and paint on my lunch :)
Aaaaw
Hi Jane, thank you so much for this video. It has helped me a lot. Would you do oil painting video?. Thank you very much
Awesome Jane! Can't wait to do this one!
Have a wonderful time with it, Peggy!!
Yes I did it it
Hey Jane , Love this!! Quick question!! If we don’t have Indanthrene blue , what you you suggest to use in its place?
This s fabulous 😊😊👏🏻👏🏻
Thank you, Sheila!!
Beautiful and dreamy :)
Thank you, Crix!!
Whoever gave the beautiful painting a thumbs down before even seeing the video, (since it hasn't even been released yet!), has proven you're a grumpy old troll. (GOT) I look forward to the day when they make GOTs visible 👁👁 to the public and you can't slither around in secret anymore. Grow up. (Sorry, Jane, but this irks me and is shady.)
Lol, friend 💛
Thank you so much for this tutorial. I’ve always wanted to do a sky like that. I’m going to do that sky over a seascape as I live near the beach here in Australia. Thanks Jane you’re seriously the best artist & art teacher on CZcams x 🌹💜
Kath Wilson Lucky girl! Would love to live near beach!!
Oooh, Kath!!! I would love to see how it turns out when you're done!!!!!
Great tutorial
Well explained and gorgeous gorgeous sky...those last touches of color on the silhouette really added a perfect touch!
You do a great job and really inspire me to want to try this
Thank you so much, Jackie! I hope you DO try it! 💛
I love this painting , how would you go about painting this on a 12 by 36 canvas horizontally of course. I have no idea how to enlarge or add on to a canvas this wide..
Gorgeous, I’ve missed too many videos. We were hit by lightning while in church and it took out a lot in our house UGH! Invested time and money to get back to normal, almost there! Missed you Jane❣️❣️❣️❣️❤️❤️❤️
Oh no!!! I was wondering why I hadn't seen you around much. I hope everyone is ok!!
I love your work! Your like the female bob ross.. You make it look so easy to make something beautiful! thanks for sharing your awesome work!
Thank you so much, Alberta
L❤️ve it thank you for sharing
You're so welcome, Laura! Thank you!
Hi Jane, I've been painting with you for three years and you have been a wonderful teacher. My question is this: when you put paint down, you seem to use very little paint but it goes on so smoothly and seems to go a long way. Do you add Flow-Aid or anything to the paint or do you prep the canvas with anything? My attempts to copy your techniques are so frustrating because my paint doesn't go far at all. Thanks for your help!
I love the video ,gotta watch it again
Thank you so much, Quentin!!
@@PaintingwithJane you're welcome my friend!!!
Excited! What are we painting this time??? Lion King yeah! 😍
Lol, I hope you're not disappointed!
Yahoo!!!! Thank you! I feel so special. ❤❤❤🦁🦁🦁
It will be 3am in the Philippines. But who cares, Im painting around that time anyway.
I've done a few of these tutorials and this one is by far my favorite! I also like the fact that you're from Utah! I am born and raised here! Thank you for making your videos so easy to follow along! You explain things really well! I appreciate it!!
Yay! Hello, fellow Utahn! Where abouts are you? Thank you so much 💛
Painting with Jane I’m in layton! Where are you? Keep up the great work! Also stay safe out there with all the earthquakes and corona going around! ❤️
No way! We're close! I'm in Ogden 😊 When all this virus business blows over, you'll have to come to Ogden for the first Friday art stroll, stop by The Monarch on 25th, and say hi 😁
Painting with Jane oh wow how cool! I would love to! That would be so much fun! Can’t wait for all this to blow over and get back to normal!
Jane, you're a star....
Aaaw, Alex, you're so sweet. Thank you
Wow waiting
See you there!! :D
I LOVE your Desert Sky, such beautiful colors.Your using a canvas pad, do you remove the canvas from the pad, or do you keep it attached. The canvas is so flimsy that I imagine it would be hard to paint on it. Or can the canvas sheet be attached to something else? I have one and don't know how to use it.
I usually leave it attached. The canvas pad's backing board is quite thick and strong. If I need a little extra strength, I just place a regular canvas on my easel behind it :)
I have a question, would cerelean blue work instead of the one you used?
This is my 1st time watching you paint and you make it look so easy. Can you give a list of the colors you are using?
New fan! Love this . Your teaching style is exactly what I need . So happy I found you.
Thank you so much, Lisa! I'm so glad you found me too! I hope to see you around 💛
Painting with Jane waiting for additional supplies to arrive since everything is closed
Yep. Online ordering is a godsend right now!
Love watching you paint. Is the painting totally dry when you go over it with another color?
Thank you so much, Joyce! No, not usually. In a painting like this, I'm not worried about blending or not. If it does, it does. If it doesn't, it doesn't :)
I love the painting, however I am on a limited budget for this hobby and find that "heavy body" paints (like Indanthrene Blue) are 4 times more than what I've been paying for paints that work fine for me. I've been using Liquitex Basics for a long time and the paintings come out nice.
Thank you for this lovely painting! I started working on it but realize I covered up too much of the blue in the sky, now I feel like I need to add some back but everything’s dry and I’m concerned about the blending issue. Would you suggest I just paint the sky over completely and redo the first layer of dark clouds?
The wonderful thing about acrylic paint is that you can always paint over something you don't like just be patient and work in layers. Don't try to obliterate things in one thick layer, because it will be really hard to blend that transition. Just a little bit at a time. You'll probably find that you needed to cover up less than you think! Thank you 💛
what can we use as a replacement for the Matte Medium
Under what circumstances should I make sure it's dry?
Hi Jane, thanks for your amazing tutorials.
A question please. What is matte fluid medium.
Which blue can I use in place of Indanthtene blue....I have pthalo cerealean and ultramarine and a cobalt from master touch?
I think this is absolutely gorgeous. I have to do this. It is so soothing. How does one get on chat?
Thank you so much, Terry!! The chat is live when I premiere the video, which typically happens on Tuesdays at 1pm MST. If you subscribe and then hit the bell icon, you should receive notifications from CZcams when my next video starts. I'd love to see you there!!
Indathrene blue Dont have have it. It looks like a purplish blue. Have other blues and dioxazine. Any suggestions on what to mix to look like it?
Indanthrene is a very dark, warm, highly pigmented blue. As far as I know, you can't mix it. But it really doesn't matter. Use any colors you have and like! There are no required colors in a sunset :)
I love your videos. this one is fantastic! there should be 4, 840 thumbs up to nudge out the puny thumbs down.
Could I substitute ultramarine blue for the Idanthrene blue? I don't have Idanthrene in my paint collection unfortunately :(
Hi is there a substitute color for the indanthrene blue? Please help
That's too beautiful 😍😍
Mam Can u plzz.. draw a silver red moon!!
I am using this Fredrix canvas pad for first time. It is causing me much grief as it is warping as I am painting my picture. When it dries completely, it remains warped. Is there a secret to using these pads? Are you priming the canvas BEFORE you actually paint on it? I use sennelier abstract acrylic. Thanks for any advice
It's warping?! I've never had it warp and I don't do anything to it before I start. Did you get the back wet? That would make it warp for sure.
@@PaintingwithJane I have since tried priming the canvas sheets with either gesso or Goldens “GAC 100” and that seems to help with the warping and curling. Also, the back did not get water or wet. Maybe I will try to contact Fredrix customer service and see what they advise. Thank you for all the wonderful videos. Oh also, I previously used canvas pads from Arteza and did not have the problem at all.
