- Sketching plein air with casein paints on Godrevy Beach in Cornwall.
On a typically Cornish, December afternoon - I thought I'd go sketching, just as the light was fading and the tide was coming in. It was very really good fun!
I used Richeson casein paints on a Seawhite A4 plein air sketchbook. Very limited palette of Cadmium Red, Cadmium Yellow Light, Titanium White, Ivory Black, Ultramarine Blue and Cool Red.
Thanks for watching - 'bye for now' - Andrew
Like the video? Why not buy me a coffee?

Great sketch as usual Andrew...just shows you can come up with good results working quickly and loosely. Love your colours. Always good fun to see your videos! Basil looked very fetching in his hat!
Many thanks Steve - Basil is a star isn't he
So good to see adorable M and Basil back with you. Looked like you all were having so much fun! Lovely sketch as well. ❤️ Glad to see your fingers intact !
Thank you so much Lisa. Always fun with Mads and the Basil boy. Hope you are well x
These plein air vids are truly delightful. Thanks. It always inspires to get out there and do some sketching.
Glad you like them. Thank you for your support 😃
Brilliant video Andrew, I love your plein-air adventures so it’s great you’ve had a chance to get out sketching again. You always seem to have fun, even when you’re getting rained on! 😁
Glad you enjoyed it and thank you very much Heather
More Basil please.
I love seeing that dog.
Great fun for him going on your painting exploits.
Art not bad either (usually).
Thank you Jim. He’s been under the weather lately with an ear infection but he’s on the mend now 👍🏻
So inspiring to watch you sketching and painting outdoors. This was delightful to see. Wishing you and your family a beautiful Christmas.
Thank you very much Ruth - merry Christmas to you too
Enjoyed the video in the mizzle. Great commentary to a lovely sketch. Even on a dank afternoon a good place to be. Glad to see you have got your fingers back. Have a good Christmas and best wishes to you and your family. Cheers 😊
Glad you enjoyed it. Thank you for your support - enjoy your Christmas
Nice Sketch. The Rock you were painting on would also make a good subject. Has some character. Basil looked very fancy today.
Thanks Mike - Basil looks a treat in his coat doesn't he? Keeps him warm on a windy beach in December
I admire your determination. Great painting, good for you.
Thank you so much 😀
Hi Andrew ... you're a real hands on painter just make do with whats there shows that you don't always need an easel ... going out in all weather capturing the scene adds to the essence of a painting or sketch ...
Thank you very much Nancy. So long as it’s fun anything is possible 😃
fine video and lovely painting, The colors are so delicious
Thank you very much Suzanne
Great fun Andrew, as always!
Thanks again Deb
just found you today ,inspiring and just got to try these paints out!
Thank you so much ☺️
Casein is a lovely media, especially if you enjoy the opaqueness 😊
Gouache? Magnifique 😊
Casein is similar to gouache 👍🏻
Bellissimo
thank you so much
Great video - wonderful scenery and artwork as always. I always love the plein air sketching videos with casein, and would love to see more of your oil stick sketching too. There’s not a lot out there on CZcams with those two mediums.
Thank you so much. I will certainly endeavour to make an oil stick sketching video over the Christmas period. Merry Christmas
Wonderful Andrew. What atmosphere!!!!!!!
Thank you very much Gary
What I like about your vids is always your "good fun" bit: because without that, I don't know of any good reason to paint. A friend of mine was a commercial artist, and a very good one - but hated painting; or at least, hated painting what he had to paint to make a living. I couldn't function like that - not sure that the frustration didn't have a lot to do with his early death, either. Anyway, always good to see you, Madeleine (spelling?), and of course Basil.
Your colours look so fresh that I thought I'd try casein as well; but when I went to look for them, the price made me stagger - do advise if you know of an economical source, or I'll stick to watercolour, acrylic, and oil.
Thank you very much Robert - I love painting and drawing and I try to make it fun as much as possible. I spent years doing a job that wasn't exactly fun (not all the time) so I make the most of it.
Gouache is a good alternative although it isn't permanent when dry - unlike casein which is (which makes it ideal for layering up).
Madeleine is the correct spelling
All the best
Andrew
Hi Jasmine - Casein is more permanent than gouache when dry and I find it dries super fast which is why I like it for sketching.
@@Jasmine_Shelby_art No need to beg anyone's pardon - all useful comments are welcome, by me and I'm sure by Andrew. Yes, I have tried gouache, and use it sometimes - its properties are well known, with their strengths and weaknesses; and it's enjoyable to paint with - most media are enjoyable to paint with, once you get used to their individual little ways! I'd like to try casein because I've not tried it before, basically - and I did like the look of Andrew's painting; I hope to find some at reasonable cost: it's probably cheaper in the USA, where most of it is made. I've also become aware of Ceracolour, from Natural Pigments - so in the New Year, I'd like to have a go with both; it's good to have something to look forward to at my age!
Is this acrylic?
This is with Casein paints which are made with milk protein and are opaque like gouache but dry permanent
