Enjoyed seeing how you simplify lots of buildings into one shape and sticking to the light and dark pattern to drive the painting process. I struggle with complicated scenes and can't wait to apply this approach!
this painting evokes a pattern in how i respond: to the subject least, the layout next, but it's really the light that grabs me and makes me feel like i'm there
I see you moved across the street after your initial setup. You sure turned this view into a gem of a painting. Good lesson in simplifying shapes. Thanks for sharing!
This turned out beautifully....the lush paint strokes and responsiveness to the scene are really lovely, I wish I had the courage of marks you put down...very inspiring 🎨👏👏👏
Good morning Michael. I really appreciate seeing how you break down cityscapes into simple shapes. Also, “I want it to look like a painting” 😆 Agreed ❤
The manner of simplifying, courage and boldness of hanling in your all work inspires me. i thank the god or the nature for created artists like you, and showed to artists like us. long live.
I think the car in the foreground works because its in shadow and doesn't draw attention like if it was in light. It's a weird one because its on the right hand side of the road but on the left hand side of the painting. Great work man
I like ur adding of the car in the foreground. It makes the painting take on an almost photographic feel. Degas did that a lot in his paintings. He would crop subjects, such as horses or carriages. Nice job for 2 hours!
I am so happy you are doing a cityscape! I have a solution for your filming problem - I’ll bet the volunteers would line up to be your assistant for a day! I do this with a local artist where I live… I get a free lesson every time I assist this way! So worth it!
I really like the car in the foreground, it being all in shadow makes the composition dramatic and it feels like SF. Thanks for the combo of colors to make streets and roads, you’re right it is a delicate mixture or it turns green, you made a nice warm grey. I really enjoy watching you paint and what you do to share is a huge effort so thanks you‼️👊🏻🎨
I am not a city person, but I appreciate this video so much because I have trouble seeing clear shapes. I feel like man- made items that have defined shapes make it easier for me to get a grip. I am starting to enjoy attempting buildings, never tried a car. The Carmel Mission is one I tried. Thanks for sharing your work process. It's a gift every Sunday I look forward to.
This one is very sophisticated. It bothers me a little that the cars get smaller but the trees get bigger up the hill. Did you consider using artistic license on those?
Thanks! The area I painted is mostly residential. It was the middle of the day so it was pretty quiet. If you visit the streets with shops there are a lot of people walking.
I’m always impressed on how you transform a complicated street to a dramatic city scape. So great!

I love this painting and your use of thick paint , I’d love to see more of the same. Thank you for another great video
Thanks Margaret!
Soooooo goood, Michael! Thank you for doing your fabulous cityscapes! Love all your paintings but your cityscapes are just so surreal. Love them!
Thanks Kay!
Excellent lesson. Thank you for telling us about your brushes and the paint colors you used. You’ve given me points I can implement. Thank you.

Yes, I had to get the opening shots in the sunlight 😂

Really nice colors in the painting and the scene. I like the pastel feel to it all 🏙️😇
Thanks Hailey!
In my oil painting journey I am just at the right point for your influence. So thanks! You are making a difference.
Great painting! I love streetscapes but have always been too intimidated to try one. Your tips are helpful, and make it seem less daunting. Thanks!
Your cityscapes really showcase your talent!

Beautiful Michael. Even the car in the foreground looks great even though it left you early on!
Mixing it up! Always stay n fresh n loose. Haven't seen u do a still life in some time. Thanks Mike stay cool and hydrated.
Wonderful cityscape. So challenging and yet you make it look easy.
so happy you are doing cityscapes again - I always see you as the S.F quintessential Painter. Thanks.

The angle and color of the foreground car is brilliant!
Nice job.

Nice work 👍

Sometimes I don't know where to file your paintings that I save ...under Favorite Oil Paintings or under Amazing! Maybe in both.❤
Aw thanks Barbara ☺🙏
Strong balance and composition, well done! The car works very well up front 👍🏼
Really nice
Bold and beatiful
NICE!
Yippee! You're back on the street! Love it!
I’m one of the guys that shouted out to you from the car while you were painting this!!
Hello!
Thank you Michael! My God, that white SUV towards the end of the video is driving itself; it's possessed! (I'm just kidding :))
So beautiful 😍👍
Love it!!!
Good morning Michael
Good morning Mark

Oh interesting. The distant trees don't bother me at all.
Hi Michael great painting, does nobody walk in the US ,I didn't see any pedestrians
Thanks! The area I painted is mostly residential. It was the middle of the day so it was pretty quiet. If you visit the streets with shops there are a lot of people walking.
Love your cityscapes Michael!
