I've watched you off and on for a few years. It's fun seeing you back in the city again after a long time at the beach! I don't comment much, but since there were zero comments, I just thought I'd be the first to say, great job, enjoyed watching. I like how loose you paint and how easy you make it look! Sorry I can't afford to be a Patreon, but you certainly deserve it.
Your videos get "best in show" - the camera work/placement, the narrative, the choice to show and discuss palette from time to time, the progression from blank canvas to painting and the editing choices - always interesting and satisfying to watch. Thanks so much!
I always look forward to Sunday afternoon watching your newest marvel. I am learning so much from you, not only shapes, values, composition, brush strokes, but the heart of a painting in the artist . Today, I felt like my lesson was just keep plugging away. Just keep at it. I am doing some kind of painting almost every day now. Consistency has been such a struggle for me. Watching you for a while now, beginning to see how dedicated you are to the process. Ups, downs and all arounds, just keep at it. That's what my new motto is. The Winston Churchill quote comes to mind, about never giving up and not fearing fear. And it pays off. I struggle with buildings and needed this extra study. I Love that you included the bridge, the reminder that distant things are duller in value. These basic things I forget sometimes. Delightfull❤
I love it! My one suggestion is to lower the mountain on the left so that the mountain/sky line can cross below the bridge cables. I think that would improve the separation/depth.
lovely process very harmonious colourìng, freely translated from reality, but not dictated and narrowed down by it: instead, yóur colors are very much determined by what's needed in the painting itself... towards a harmonious unity . Simply lovely... Keep on doing what you're doing Mike
Beautiful as always Michael . I wonder if it would be possible for us Patreons to see how you finish the painting from where you ended the video before the reveal. The restraint you show in what to include and what not to include is masterful . Thank you as always
Happy Sunday, Michael. Terrific painting. Your city renderings remind of the cityscapes of Wayne Thiebald (but without the vertigo). Keep testing yourself and showing your process.
When was the last time you used black on your pallet? I know many impressionists abhorred black in their landscapes, but it has its uses in portraits and stilllives based indoors…

I just love your bold approach as you block in your composition. Keep going
Another beauty! Love your street paintings! And of course your seascapes!
Amazing as always - how you sort it all out and produce a great painting.

Good for you! Keep going!
Thats my hood! Love what you make out of it!
Turned out amazing, I am learning so much thank you.
A beautiful painting! Well done.
The streets of San Francisco always show something new 🔝
Love your videos. It's like seeing able to just join an artist plen air. Thank you so much
Nice to see you in the big city now and then! Stay safe. Watch out for vans that run through stop signs. 00:19!
yikes!
your videos are real classes of painting, i love to watch 💌

- 6:26 - paintings and palette mixes always interesting : )
Good morning Michael
I love your approach on the cars and trees!
Thanks Cedric!
@@chamberlainpaintings you're very welcome 🎨
You’ve mastered the illusion of depth with atmospheric perspective! Beautiful colors. Love this.
Thank you, an insightful and helpful watch ❤
Really appreciate you sharing what colors and brushes you're using while working - I learn so much from your videos! The finished piece is so serene.
Love your city scapes.Memories of the matchbook homes are romantic too.
Your SF paintings are always so exhilarating - love them thank you.
Wow, well done, difficult subject matter but you got the atmosphere just right , reads beautifully
lovely process

Simply lovely...
Keep on doing what you're doing Mike
Thanks Peter!
Love the colour of the buildings in your painting.
I enjoy watching you paint and how you share your process. It's very inspirational and I love your work, especially the cityscapes.
Beautiful as always Michael . I wonder if it would be possible for us Patreons to see how you finish the painting from where you ended the video before the reveal. The restraint you show in what to include and what not to include is masterful . Thank you as always
Thanks! I'll make a Patreon video discussing this topic!

Thanks Gary!
Love it when you paint cityscapes 😊
Love how the van ran the stop 🛑 sign up behind you while your back was to it.
😬
Whouah it’s great !!!
I like how you can distill the scene so effectively. Would you say your paintings have become a bit more abstract over time? I really like the effect.
I think my paintings have become more abstract as my ability to view a scene as an arrangement of abstract shapes has improved.
Absolutely gorgeous cityscape, Michael!!!!
Thanks Kay!
@@chamberlainpaintings you're welcome Michael!!!! ❤️
Beautiful.
Thanks Maura!
Excellent
Challenging scene, great job
Nice!
Nice
You are on a roll!
When was the last time you used black on your pallet? I know many impressionists abhorred black in their landscapes, but it has its uses in portraits and stilllives based indoors…
I tried using black briefly about 5 years ago. I heard you could mix nice greens with black. I prefer my primary color palette.
Hi Michael. Do you use a glass palette in your palette box? Thanks for the great videos as always.
Thanks, no it's a wooden palette.
When NYC had its earth quake did San Francisco feel any murmurs?
No, that’s too far 😊
Hey Michael, if I may ask- Are you a Trump supporter? 🙏
Great video/painting by the way!
Thanks Hailey! I never discuss politics. Art is above politics. Our creativity unites us on a higher level. 😊💛
@@chamberlainpaintings I do agree with you 100% I guess I was just curious lol. Thanks for your response! 🙏😊
Nice
