- Want to make better paintings and have them look more professional? Artist Lon Brauer will show you multiple "tricks" he uses to make his paintings stand out. In this video Lon will do several paintings ot the same subject using a different technique every time. This experimentation technique teaches you to be free and more abstract in your paintings.
This is a step by step guide in oil painting. Lon paint's apples and shows how to create light and form.
We believe anyone can learn to paint. Even people who don't believe in themselves can learn because painting does not require natural talent, its all about following a process.

Nice one Eric, as per usual. Good stuff, Lon, yes drawing is the "foundation" of art, and besides still life, figures will teach you to draw well. So many beginner painters dive into painting, in any medium, with landscapes, thinking they don't really need to know how to draw. Wrong!! They get everything wrong, in the first minutes, then apply paint and wonder why the painting fails. I'm glad I started painting with wildlife, with all the major media, since you just can't' get away with drawing animals, including people, badly. So, I have many boxes full of my drawing pads. And I also did many paintings of zebras, (still do). So, talk about getting the white and black stripes confused!! LOL. The animal paintings were done a few decades before I switched, mainly, to plein air painting landscapes, about 10 years before you, Eric, released Plein Air Mag, in 2005, I think. I have the first issue with that wonderful Edgar Payne Sierra Nevada landscape in it. I even went to that location with pack mules some years ago, with another artist friend, and we and camped, at 5th Lake, Big Pine Canyon, in his old camping spot. It was "epic", of course!! As for thick paint, yes, now that I'm mostly an oil painter, for past few decades, I do like the thick paint. And, like an old workshop teacher once said to us students, "Forcrissakes, use some paint, ...they'll make more"!! LOL :D
Cheers from beautiful AZ where there is subject matter everywhere for plein air landscape paintings,... if you don't mind sharing a spot with rattle snakes, that is!! LOL ;D
Inspirational, thanks for commenting.
That was an amazing demo. It makes me want to practice 5 times as much. I can see the value in repeating the same painting with a different twist each time. Thank you, thank you, for sharing with us.
So the METHOD is to paint the same reference a number of times but he does each using different techniques = FAST PROGRESS IN LEARNING!! Thank you for this lesson! #1- original image, using large brush/single brush #2-Removes stripes #3- palette knife painting #4 alla prima direct *no underdrawing*, lg single brush- COMPARE, identify your weaknesses then WORK ON THEM!!!
Great segment! Paint, paint, paint! Thanks Eric and Lon!!!
Right, you have to cover a lot of "acreage" of panels and canvas with paint before you get "good" at painting, ...or at they will begin to suck less and less!! ;D
thank you so much for these incredible lessons
This is so fun! Free n easy feeling!❤🎉

Painting a lot of apples ... only with acrylic. Thank you 😊😊
I love acrylic, used it a lot for wildlife paintings in studio, great for detailed work on "fur and feathers"!!

Thats what is wrong with too many "want a be" artists..they dont want to do the work required to earn the right to call themselves an artist! really sad
Right, if you are a "lazy person" by nature, art may not be for you. But maybe ... you could do abstracts??? LOL ;D
Got a Lucus watercolor fal set. No blue... same.
Did he put the line at the bottom of the apple because it looks more pleasing than middle where it is in pic?
Could you address values and focal point?
If he is following the rule of thirds, does he have 2 focal points?
On which surface does he paint?
The apples look all the same to me !! it’s too bad Lon didn’t paint the apples a blue color or a green!!!!😢
I would call his style more of an impressionism, rather than abstract. Abstract is more non-representable.?
Less talking and more painting, please! 16:38
shockingly bad
boring
