    Dear Clare, I don't know what impact it generates in your heart to transmit to the world your knowledge, your painting techniques through your video posts. But know Clare, the impact on the heart, in the technical, social, financial and economic improvement in the lives of thousands of people around the world is enormous. For all this, we are grateful to you.

    So helpful seeing how you work and how the painting builds. The split screen is useful because I always long to see the palette and the mixing and those things aren’t always included. Looking forward to more videos!

    • @ClareBowenArtist
      @ClareBowenArtist  Před 3 lety +1

      Thank you Caroline - I'm really pleased you think the split screen is useful as it's something we hoped people would like - as I too like to see the paint mixing as well as the paint application :-)

    You must be a very magical special soul Clare, because, what is in the heart comes out of the brush. An absolutely lovely, very clever and happy painting. Thank you. Sitting here in South Africa and it is Summer and has been cloudy and rainy for weeks. Hardly any sun at all, and your lively happy painting and cheery video cheered me up, lovely, thank you again.

    @grandpa_eric Před 3 měsíci +1

    I can tell you painted this from life, from a bouquet of sunflowers and not a photo. Your perspective is a bit higher than that of the inset photo. I like painting from life. I feel much more a part of nature and capturing what I see; expressing a viewpoint. Nice!

    • @ClareBowenArtist
      @ClareBowenArtist  Před 3 měsíci +1

      Thanks Eric, it is from life, my work is better and i find it more satisfying like you say you feel more connected to it. 👍😊

  • @LeaSingh
    @LeaSingh Před 3 lety +3

    Great video, thank you! I really enjoyed watching your process, very educational. Just wondering, do you usually paint on a white canvas, or was that special for this demo?

    • @ClareBowenArtist
      @ClareBowenArtist  Před 3 lety +2

      Hi Lea, thank you very much - I tend to paint on a white surface for my flowers so it makes them more luminous - as the white effects the outcome. For landscapes it changes depending on the subject and time of day.

  • @grandpa_eric
    @grandpa_eric Před 3 měsíci +1

    Wow!! Clare, so beautiful. Let me ask a question: Do you ever lay down an overall tone, such as burnt sienna? Sometimes I think that muddies the colors from the start, but, at the same time it unifies the painting overall. What is your philosophy on applying an overall tone?

    • @ClareBowenArtist
      @ClareBowenArtist  Před 3 měsíci +1

      Hi Eric, good question! I tend to start with a white base but sometimes apply a base colour as I go or an underpainting. Depending on the subject and what it needs. Hope that helps. 😊

  • @TrudieTiger70
    @TrudieTiger70 Před 2 lety +1

    Love this. Thank you. Are you wiping your brush off with a paper towel each time you change a color ?

    • @ClareBowenArtist
      @ClareBowenArtist  Před 2 lety +2

      Thank you Pamela. I do use a paper towel to wipe my brushes. If it’s a very different colour I change the brush so it doesn’t muddy. I don’t tend to wash my brushes in between because it thins the paint too much with residue turps. Hope that helps? Best, Clare
