- Hi there
I went plein air painting at this location with the intention of painting the boats moored on the river near Mylor, Carrick Roads, Cornwall. On my arrival one thing was shouting 'Paint Me!' - a bright yellow rape seed field. I couldn't resist!
My 40cm x 30cm panel could have done with being slightly wider to accommodate the width of the landscape so I made a few adjustments.
Watch as I battle with the plein air landscape painting environment - changing light, tidal changes and pesky flies!
Thank you for watching - please subscribe and give it the thumbs up if you enjoyed the video.
Bye for now

Beautiful!!
Thank you very much Leslie 😊
😘😘😘😘
Lovely, esp the indications of boats.
Thank you so much ☺️
I love the texture of the paint, your signature style.
Thank you so much ☺️
I myself love to enjoy plein air and adore those who paint plein air sketches. The sketch turned out very colorful. Thank you Andrew for the pleasure you have given me.
Thank you very much. Glad you enjoyed the video 😃
Very nice to watch how a painting comes together in the end. To an onlooker, who does not know better (even myself😅), it may seem odd the random colouring in at the beginning, but once the layers are built up and detail added it finally becomes a work of art . Beautiful, thank you Andrew!
Thank you very much
What a find! Love the free, crisp style Andrew :)
Thankyou for the relaxing yet informative content.
Thank you Sammi Jane. Glad you enjoyed it 😃
Wow !!! Great !!!
Thanks a lot!
Very nice painting Andrew 👌
Thanks Neil 😃
What a complicated scene. I think I would have been tempted to pretend all the yachts were out at sea! It’s turned out beautifully Andrew. I never used to liked rape seed fields as they often look very acrid yellow, not quite natural somehow, but over the years I have softened a bit towards them. It’s certainly a lovely draw in your composition. I love it..
Thank you Jennie - I do like the bright yellow but they can look out of place in the landscape. Good cash crop for the farmers though
Hello Andrew. I wanted to share a quick tip I heard recently from another painter. She lets “Bounce” dryer sheets (the fabric softening type) hang out of her back pants pocket as she is painting to help keep bugs at bay. Don’t know if this works or not as I’ve not yet tried it. If it does work, it might only be for mosquitos, not sure about flies. And I don’t know if it is the fragrance specific to the Bounce brand or if any brand of dryer sheet works…..I was thinking I might stuff a few sheets in my plein air backpack which hangs on the hook of my tripod and see if that works. Anyway, thought I’d pass it along. Thank you for the video! ~Rhonda
Thank you for the tip - I will definitely try that one
I love to watch your process - you have a very tranquil way of describing what you're doing. It's peaceful and beautiful
Thank you so much. I appreciate your comments 😊
Delightful
Thank you 😊
Another lovely painting!
Thanks Judith
I think I sketched that yellow field the other day from Falmouth! It's so bright and demanded my attention. Lovely to see your plein air painting process too.
Thank you Mel.
I’m painting in the rapeseed field this week if the rain holds off long enough. Hard to ignore aren’t they 😃
Hi Andrew, another amazing view... Beautiful, a lot, this your opera.. 🧐And, about me, very interesting how you paint little lovely boats.... 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏Mylor Harbor, lovely place... 🙋♀️Have a beautiful week....
Thank you so much Veronica - have a great week too
Really lovely. Thanks so much for doing these videos. Much appreciated.
You’re welcome. I appreciate your support
Really, again a painting I like. The boats...indeed go with the flow. Thanks for sharing!
Thank you Jan. I enjoyed the day but not the flies 😃
Great painting. Love the indication of the boats.
Thank you very much Louise
Eat film. Interesting to see the process.
Glad you enjoyed it
Great job, Andrew.
Thank you Bob
Another nice one Andrew
Thanks Keith
your seemingly random strokes always come together and make such expressive and beautiful compositions. i like your choice of colours and the way you dont overthink strokes. Can you just buy mdf panels at a hardwood store and paint it straight?
Thank you very much. Mdf can be bought from hardware stores. I think it’s called Masonite in US. It needs to be primed before oil painting
@@AndrewBarrowmanArt and are the mdf panels you use thin or thick? you prime with with dissolved paint, right? I'm sorry about all the questions, im new to painting and i really prefer painting in a hard surface like cardboard over a canvas, and mdf sounds like a cheap good option
@@joaoguilhermemalatocorreia7570 no problem - I think the mdf panels are 2mm thick. You can buy a bigger sheet and easily cut it yourself with a hand saw which makes it even cheaper. I prime mdf with acrylic gesso but normal household emulsion paint would do for practice
@@AndrewBarrowmanArt thank you for your help! I love your plein air paintings!
@@joaoguilhermemalatocorreia7570 thank you so much
Very good
Thank you 😀👍
I have just watched your latest video - really nice 👌
Nice, very cool to watch from start to finish. I do think the painting is keyed quite light and the dynamic range lacks.
Thank you. I usually find my outdoor work has that issue. I often adjust things back in the studio where the lighting is more controlled 👍🏻

Thank you

Initial lay in would go faster with a larger brush sir.
That’s quite true but I love the smaller brush marks made by smaller brushes
