Thanks!
Your style of commentary is relaxed and personal in an informally friendly way. And I love your painting style, too, it's really unique. I've just started watching your videos - I grew up in the 80s watching painting shows with my Grandmother every Saturday morning and she taught me some drawing basics. She painted and her paintings are similar in style to your's I really am only an abstract artist and a very novice one at that, I just do it for catharsis and for fun, but you're inspiring me to get back to those classes and maybe even start painting "for real." Thanks for the content! Peace to you.
Thanks!
Tad with his summer buzz cut…he’s such a pleasant guy. I wish I lived close enough to join you. These cypress trees were some of your best Michael! Loved it!
🌞
Beautiful sense of depth in this one Michael. I like how you've pushed the perspective to separate the main tree from the ones in the back. And Tad looks to be channeling Cezanne with his brush work. Nice!
Thanks Matthew!
Very nice painting, you know how to solve greens and greys which is very difficult. Lately I've been spending a lot of time in nature because it has exploded this summer and I see scenes to paint everywhere so from time to time I think "I bet Mike would have a blast out here" lol...and I know I could too but Im too comfortable lately to go buy the stuff I need and go to plein air paint. Maybe one day.
So very good. Your cypress trees are always fantastic. The more you paint them, the better they are.
“ MC , painter of cypress trees “. Lol 🌴 Tallahassee
What a fantastic video... I love the close ups you did at the end so I could see your brush strokes and then your reasoning for when and how you used them. My sky holes always look ridiculous so I"m going to assume it's trial and error until your eye gets trained correctly see/apply them.
Loved this video painting session, and enjoyed seeing Tad paint and you sharing thoughts with him. Enjoying Pateron so much too. Thanks!
I’m so glad!
Reminiscent of Tom Thomson’s brush strokes. Great effect, well done.
Thanks!
Liked how you gave Tad such good advice without being dismissive of his work.
I loved the effect you acquired with the trees. They look very convincing and your dialogue is really helpful. You’ve made me want to go to our local lake now and give it a try. Thank you.
Thanks! Glad you found this inspiring!
I really liked this painting, and the way you shot the video. Nice job all around.
Thanks Mark!
Really cool to see those trees come together. They really do look convincing! I sometimes struggle with the sky holes but it’s something I’m working on. Great moody painting!
Thanks, Danny!
As you were talking about your new technique with the water I was thinking how excellent your water was looking!
Oh good! 😊
Great tip for saving the sky hole spaces, bigger or more than you think you'll need, leaving yourself options. Thanks! Enjoy all your videos and work!
Like the reflections brushwork.!👍
Thanks Lorri Anne! Glad you’re enjoying my videos 😊
Watching this in the backseat of my in-laws car on our way to vacation.. this is a beautiful composition. Loved the tips about the water as well. Definitely made me realize that I’m over thinking it
Great painting! You've included the perfect number of sky holes to reinforce and open up the tree shapes....
this is so good mr chamberlain
Beautiful! Love the atmospheric feel
Thanks Sophie!
Stowe lake is very nice. Loved the way you did the water especially.
I live 3 hrs Away from SF. Gonna do it though.
I love all the thoughtful temperature shifts you do. Good vibrations, as they say. Thanks for a great time and for all the advice!
Thanks, Tad!
Such wonderful work with the trees. Not overly painted and beautifully descriptive of the various varieties of growth along the lake. Inspired me to have stronger goals in my brush handling. You say more in one stroke than most of us with a hundred.
Thanks! I'm trying to get better about surface quality. It's a fun challenge trying to add variety without breaking up the overall design.
I love the water reflections. It looks so peaceful. Stow Lake is lovely every time you go and if I ever get out to California I want to see it. Thank you for sharing your talent and skills.
There's a lot to explore in GG park. Stow lake is wonderful place for a walk or a boat ride. Not a bad place to paint either!
YES a soft edge in the water reflections will help stabilize those shapes. Your cypress are monumental !!!
Thanks!
Always enjoy watching your videos. And they always come out when I'm about to have my coffee break! 😄
Oh good! I try to post at 7 am. Glad you enjoy my videos!
Thanks for the paint tip!
In love with the way you build your colour!
You both did a beautiful job. Michael, your water reflection is really lovely - transparent and opaque, vertical and horizontal. Nice.
Thanks Maura!
-( displays of light , lay penetrating through liquids surface, touching depth into reflections, mirrored shadows of light, foreground, the painting exhibits a fulfilled desire to be seen. i like this. )- michael, thank you for sharing
Thanks, Mark!!
again , lovely piece of work! loving the impressionist vibes
I was a bit worried about this one with the cool colours, but you did a great job both of you, really enjoyed it!
Thanks!
this is so cool! you’re so talented. I love watching both you and emma 🤍
Hey Mike...letting the block in color show in the trees just makes the trees so wonderful... I've been trying this with the pitch pines here... it's very effective until I go too far and cover
It's so easy to go too far! I'm trying to be better about leaving the orange.
Yeah...I guess that's part of what it's all about...
Great atmospheric perspective & good tips shared with your fellow painter. He did a great job too!
Thanks Sherrie!
Great painting and vlog! You know how to paint water for sure! I like this location too. Btw. I'm glad I made it. lol ... Big storm is already here and maybe blackout soon. lol ... My WiFi will be gone soon too... lol ... Have a good one!
Thanks, Olda! Wow, storms can be exciting as long as they're not too destructive. Get the candles ready!
@@chamberlainpaintings lol, thanks so much! it turned out, it wouldn't be that bad as a month ago... A month ago the storm was complete mess, in fact, near to us appeared tornado/cyclone/twister for the first time ever. Many homes near to us (other towns) were completely destroyed. We are fine for now!
@@chamberlainpaintings I'm fine, thank you! Cheers!
Love the tall trees on the left and the atmospheric perspective. The refelctions on the left side are bugging me...Pay no attention to me...:) Just my feelings on this one... Always love your videos! Tad looks great with that haircut!

A very successful day for you both, I think. I really enjoy your consultations with Tad. The texture of the reflections you achieved is beautiful. Amazing. Thanks for the great explanations. *The ducks are so cute.* Thanks for sharing! Peace and love..Suz What ☮️💚
Thanks, Suz! Another wonderful poem! I love ducks. I had a white duck as a pet when I was a kid. It's rare to see white ducks in the Bay Area so I had to include a little clip!
@@chamberlainpaintings 🦆❤️
Great little poem!
@@1Thedairy 😁thanks.
nice poem suz : )
Hi Micheal…I like it. Excellent composition which keeps my eye moving around the painting . Also a lot of nicely done variety of brushwork.
Cheers -Greg
Thanks Greg!
Gorgeous!!
good day, good work too, well done!
Thanks Hazel!
I like the tile and value effect (horizontal) of the water, great nuance, perfect, this reminds me of the Canadian Group of seven. I have to try this effect. The sky is great more tile effects. a complete success.
Thanks, Mike!
Yeah... especially like Tom thomson
@@nancykunik4370 I was looking at couple of prints I have hanging and thought the same. I don’t see many artist going this way, I myself included. I have always taken inspiration from Thomson without coping. Maybe I should.
It can only help to copy great painters/paintings lots of learning can come from it ...thanks for your comment
still living for these 😭
😊
I paint......I paint alone.

Thanks, Jeff!
Very very nice sir.
Great painting! Your videos are also so very welcome. Continous inspiration! :D
Thanks, Patricia!
Beautiful and calming
Awesome!!
Thanks, Frances!
totally bummed out after binging on your videos for a couple weeks now your youtube page does not give me the red line indicating that the video has been viewed . So now I have no idea which I have watched and which I have not. i was randomly surfing the videos not watching in any order. As much as I like the posts I would like to get trew once without viewing multiple times. If you have any suggestions lwt me know. Life could be a lot worse .
Sorry to hear that Charles! Loss of red lines is on your end. Did you clear your cache or clear your history,? Those are two things that will do it.
