Why paint over a transparent wash?

- In this video Dutch painter Janhendrik Dolsma gives you 4 reasons to paint over a transparent wash:
1. It has a unifying effect
2. the possibility of applying highlights in the wet wash
3. the color of the wash sets the tone of the painting
4. colors blend in easily
Dolsma explains the process while working on his Evening Clouds painting.
Dolsma (1950) is an expert painter of clouds, beaches, dunes and of course the ocean. On his CZcams channel he shares a lifetime of painting experience in short tutorial videos with an emphasis on painting clouds. His full length tutorials (over 60 minutes) have found their way to buyers all over the world. Full tutorials can be found here: www.paintingskies.com/video/
Dolsma participated in exhibitions in the Netherlands, Germany, the UK, Taiwan, Spain, Belgium and the USA.

Best painter ive seen on youtube
You're to kind, thank you!
Muddling through, you say. Well, that is some amazing muddling that you're doing.
Thanks to muddling through!
I've been underpainting washes for a few years now, even in my murals. It's improved my work, I think. Well done and good insight!
I agree, underpainting wishes has great advantages. Thanks!
The video doesn't explain how to make underpaint wash. Is it like mixing brown paint with a lot of linseed oil, or the paint should be mixed turpentine or white spirit? I appreciat your reply.
@@williamflaherty3168 I use Liquin Light Gel (Winsor & Newton) as a medium. It's a fast drying medium that allows you to resume working on the same painting the next day. For my washes I use a mix of Burnt Sienna, Yellow Ocher and a lot of Liquin.
@@PaintingSkies1 great ! Thanks a lot!
Wow! Thank you for that tutorial. That was truly amazing! And your painting is beautiful!
Thank you, Laurie!
Excellent!
Thanks, Stuart!
This man is amazing!!! I genuinely appreciate his wisdom.
Thank you, Rebekah!
5 years of experience in less than 8 minutes...I'm grateful...
Thank you!
That’s was wonderful! Some great tips and a beautiful painting. Thank you
That's great, thank you!
A vibrant orange, red or yellow directly next to an almost pure white highlight can create a very "hot" glow, which the warm underpainting is very helpful with. Additionally, a saturated warm color along the edge of an object with a bright backlight (where we see only the shadowed side of the object) can create this same glowy feeling. Alternatively, if you want to paint a scene with a cold main light source, it can be useful to start with a blue, purple or green underpainting.
Couldn't have put it any better!
This painting is stunning. I did my first ocean plein air painting a couple weeks ago, I’ll be taking this advice with me when I go back.
Thanks. All the best with your new plein air painting!
Love the artwork. It's very realistic and pleasant to watch. While I know nothing about oil colors it was a visual treat to see the painting coming to life. Keep up the good work and God bless you :D
That's very kind, thank you!

An informative, well designed and helpful video.
I'm pleased to hear the video has been helpful for your own work. Thanks for your comment!
@@PaintingSkies1 You're very welcome.
I really enjoyed your explanation and watching you paint. At an early stage the picture looked really good. Than came the bright shocking blue. Eventually of course you arrived at your desired color values. This is inspiring. I have tried this technique on a picture long time ago. Tome to try it again.
Good to hear you enjoyed the video. It is a great approach indeed. Al the best when you try it again!
Amazing picture and technique.
Thank you, Armand!
Love your paintings, and your calm voice, and your music
That's a great compliment, Chris, thank you.
@@PaintingSkies1 I fallow you on CZcams love your stuff I paint for a hobby, and I am having trouble with my clouds so I am watching your videos for techniques, I started out years ago with the Bob Ross wet on Wet technique, but still can’t seem to get my cloud to look realistic
Maybe my Painting Clouds for Beginners can be helpful. You can download it at www.paintingskies.com/video. Success!@@chrisrokas4909
it turned out beautiful. the touch of whitewash on the bottom left foreground does a lot of work. looks great.
Thank you!
Wonderful and inspiring...especially for someone who 'muddles through' as you put it !!! You are indeed a MASTER. Thankyou so much for sharing your skills.
Thank you, Loraine!

I always have the same thought about starting the fun details and getting to do them again if I mess them up by doing them too early :)
Ah, that's funny, Eve! It's a lot better than loosing your temper over I, isn't it?
Yay! Another great lesson from Janhendrik - so wonderful that you take the time to share these lessons - you could just keep it all to yourself - but it is helping me soooo much with my ocean and sky paintings - I improve little by little and study a lot - thank you again - I have all your videos and am always looking for a new one! Keep sharing please!
Thank you so much, Denise! Great to hear you have all my videos and that they have been helpful. I don't know when I'll be doing another full length video. Any tips on what it should be about?
Agree totally !
@@petergreen5319 Thanks, Peter!
@@PaintingSkies1 Oh I will definitely give you a few requests since the last time I requested I got my wish soon afterward - THE WAVE! I cannot even begin to tell you how often I paint as I am watching/listening to that video. I'll be back......
