Love watching how you lay down the “calligraphy” of the trees.

Great work Danny! I love that you included that little interaction you had with people walking by. I always get so nervous someone is going to interrogate me about what I'm doing, but it's never that bad. It's usually exactly what you said, "a pleasant conversation".

I really like this one, and I look forward to hearing about your refinement process for your ultra-portable painting kit.

[jopearce]

What a lovely picture. You managed to make some of the trees pop forward and the others recede back. Such a tiny set up too! So clever. 🙂

Love this portable setup! The painting looks wonderful, too. Looks like you chose a great place to capture.

Really nice job, Danny. Boy that’s a tiny pochade box! Looks like you need a James Gurney set up! Funny, I was just thinking of making one since my oil set up is getting too heavy for me. And it’s also funny because I was just thinking of getting more gouache too! Glad I saw your video.
It’s been hot as hell out here in Hastings, Nebraska. Bet you’re glad you’re in the mountains! I’m gonna look up that painter you mentioned. Thanks

[Susiachi]

That turned out really nice with sensitive mark making in the foliage. What are you painting on? Is it gessoed? I went out yesterday with illustration board and it was frustratingly too absorbent.

[kimranson]

Im so glad i found your channel! What kind of pochade box is that? I want to begin plein air but wantbsomethingvsmall to start out.

Hi. New subscriber here so sorry if you’ve already gone over what I’m about to ask. What brand of gouache do you use? I like your little set up.

[momopaints]

This painting turned out really well! What brand of gouache do you prefer?
I also get nervous when people come up to talk. Mostly because I’m not quite confident in my painting yet 😆
