I've spent the last few days well and truly out of my comfort zone with this one, palette knives and people pictures just aren't happy bed fellows. But I've had a smile on my face for most of it....it just seems mad...these crude little marks do seem to convey some sort of sense of character and a lot of they people watching me have been very complimentary (probably because they we're in fear of their lives sensing the unexploded bomb ticking away ). Hopefully they will be happy with it...if not I've actually really enjoyed pushing myself and I'm still smiling.</div>

My objective this winter was to get five distinct lines of pots set up before the season kicks off again. I've really got into the creative process and now don't want to stop. I haven't painted now for about 6 weeks and being an artist is now just a distant memory.</div>

This is a glaze I call Tex over Temnoku, it originates from a copper red glaze that I copied out of Ceramic review back in the Jurassic. It no longer has copper in it and if it did it would come out of my electric kiln a greenish colour. </div>

Bailey's red with a blue chun drizzle on a crude butter dish. I made a simple hump mould for this butter dish lid and press the plate out using a piece of wood and furniture foam. The result is very rustic but has a lovely friendly feel. It makes me smile anyway...</div>

I thought I'd give this little on it's own post rather than leaving tagged onto the end of the last one. I'm becoming a little obsessed by my stats and this will give them a little boost.</div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Initially I was thinking mainly about boosting my profile with this blog but as I've got into it I'm just really enjoying taking a little time out to think about and explain what I'm doing. My statistics so far are spectacularly mediocre at best so I think I've got a long way to go........helpful suggestions will be more than gratefully received.</div>

Tuesday is the beginning of my week (I take Sunday and Monday off) and like everyone else I find it hard to get going. One of the best way for me is to have a browse, it seems indulgent or work avoidant but I'm increasingly seeing the importance of it. Everyone has influences, even the greats and we are in the privileged position of being able to scan across thousands of images sat in the comfort of our homes.<br />
<br />
One of my favourite sites is <a href="https://uk.pinterest.com/" target="_blank">Pinterest</a>, as you select images you then get guided towards collections of similar work. You also get to create your own collections and so can come back and at a glance see all the work that caught your eye the day/days before. This is my collection called <a href="https://uk.pinterest.com/chrisgeall9/paint/" target="_blank">Paint</a>.<br />
<br />
Currently I seem to be enjoying looking at clouds lit up by the late sun.<br />

<br />
I just had to share this aerial view of Grosmont, I especially love the fact they had a cyclist in every shot. It's a shame they didn't have any steam engines running but I'm sure they'll have another go later on in the year.<br />
<br />
If you go towards the end of the video there are some shots of the river including the delivery van that attempted the ford in full flood and got swept down river. The driver was rescued and taken home by Becky . He was reported later to be suffering from exhaustion and emotional distress....sorry Becky couldn't resist.<br />
<br />
Becky of course is one of the key members of the esteemed Bored Cat Film company and has had many minor roles with them including the following....<br />

This was the only one I could find on line, but I did purchase The Uskdale Progeny for ÂŁ2.50 in the <a href="http://www.grosmontco-op.co.uk/" target="_blank">Grosmont Co-op</a> and it was worth every penny.<br />

Many years back I visited the National Gallery in London and checked out the Turners. It struck me at the time that my appreciation of art had in fact been replaced by a technical appraisal. I now see paintings in a completely different way.... but don't get me wrong J. W. M. Turner was a true master.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
The paintings on show at the time included the Fighting Temeraire which had a similar sky to this one. It was a shame to see that they were all terribly faded, it would have been amazing to see them as they were when he had just painted them.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
The other thing that struck me was that Mr Turner had painted all the skies on show in a similar way . He had a sky formula.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I was a little disappointed but also found it very liberating in that I was now allowed to construct paintings rather than slavishly trying to represent what I'd seen. If it was OK for the great Mr Turner then surely it was OK for me.</div>

I've decided to call this one "Grumpy artist paints the Flying Scotsman".</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
My tranquil life will be interrupted on the 12th with the arrival in Grosmont of the newly refurbished Flying Scotsman loco. It's going to be heaving....I may have to go and hide in my pottery.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Lots of people have been nagging me to do some Scotsman paintings and finally I have given in. Most annoyingly of all is that I really enjoyed doing it. I did it from a photo on the NYMR's website, its from the 1950's I think.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Painting something like this is really tough, let's call it an impression of a steam engine. My next one is going to be called " Flying Scotsman in the very far distance and hidden by a hill"</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Now a while ago I said that Black is for wimps ....I take it all back.</div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I felt unhappy with the way I'd tried to explain greens yesterday, so here's another attempt<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEipdYie-0lowttb27fAMnGxo9-0WXTDa3hsPOil1TN46hYikgUVV9PplIYbuqB13JuA0tetyre3-HEPOAhFGVqcxqs3dcL3GHrd_1Yb50nYUN4pUMmnAyDVBWzosVW6IafeVJ1Y5INtzjk/s1600/Green+-+1.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="212" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEipdYie-0lowttb27fAMnGxo9-0WXTDa3hsPOil1TN46hYikgUVV9PplIYbuqB13JuA0tetyre3-HEPOAhFGVqcxqs3dcL3GHrd_1Yb50nYUN4pUMmnAyDVBWzosVW6IafeVJ1Y5INtzjk/s320/Green+-+1.jpg" width="320" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I've started with a strip of pure Winsor green (yellow shade), I believe other manufacturers call it Pthalo green. Above it I have mixed the green with white. It's quite a cool green and very synthetic looking.</div>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I then came in with two yellows, one lemon yellow and the other Winsor yellow which I started to blend with the green and white. It's still a bit to artificial</div>

GREEN</h2>

Last week I sold two large paintings including my last spring woodland scene, so I decided that I'd revisit by favourite Beech tree in Grosmont woods. I love trying to capture the vibrancy of the new spring growth especially when it's cold and grey outside. Over the last couple of weeks I've been practicing on small pieces in preparation for this one.<br />
<br />
So this would be a good time to talk about greens. Green should just be blue mixed with yellow as we all learnt in primary (junior) school. However I've spent the day throwing all kinds of colours into the mix, including Prussian blue, pthalo blue, violet, mauve blue, burnt sienna, lemon yellow, yellow ochre, cadmium orange, cadmium yellow and Winsor green (pthalo green).<br />
<br />
There are many ways of mixing effective greens and sometimes it is fun to allow yourself to run out of your main colours so that you are forced to get inventive. Currently I have no French ultra marine.I like to concentrate on warming the sunlit colours and keeping the shadows dark and cool. It's very tempting to get the tube of black out...but black is for wimps and doesn't blend so well. The hardest part is keeping the whites and yellows clean.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
My intention when I set off was to use a large quantity of purple in the distance and shadows so that hopefully when it came to putting in the very yellowy greens of the sunlit areas the would stand out.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
My distant colours ended up being a mix of Prussian blue, Winsor violet and burnt sienna or yellow ochre. Then to develop the shadows I started introducing pthalo green but cooled right down with Prussian blue and pthalo blue.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
As I started moving into the sunlit areas I started mixing burnt sienna into the pthalo green which gives a gorgeous colour with real depth. For the very sunlight exposed areas I used white with small amounts of lemon and Winsor yellow. I then blended the yellows into the warm greens to get a nice transition.</div>

I've never been sure about using the palette knife for people pictures, it's a bit crude. However they are very popular and sell well....so I'll keep on doing them. It's good I suppose to stray from your comfort zone.</div>

I have a good friend who is dabbling with painting and would much rather get small chunks of specific information rather than an expansive view of the whole complexity of a painting from start to finish. So in that vein I'm going to gradually tell you all about what I do.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
I call myself a palette knife painter so that's seem the obvious place to start.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi1on2URee1NrgHxrT0GomRR6mWVzX__l0-K3wnK1tSrEHUGplFdz1OQwFSEjiWAjoYv-YK_2Pv9bb52O2lG_gBrw6eUA1l-xD3f8BFodDFaSVU9o4fGV6Ax2yKk26NEbT6p-Y1q06aOPo/s1600/20160301_121347.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="180" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi1on2URee1NrgHxrT0GomRR6mWVzX__l0-K3wnK1tSrEHUGplFdz1OQwFSEjiWAjoYv-YK_2Pv9bb52O2lG_gBrw6eUA1l-xD3f8BFodDFaSVU9o4fGV6Ax2yKk26NEbT6p-Y1q06aOPo/s320/20160301_121347.jpg" width="320" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
This is my palette knife, I have three, all are the same size. I used to only have one and I didn't know it's make or number and so when I eventually stumbled across the same ones I bought a couple more. I wrote down the make and number so that I'd never be worried about not having the right tool again. Of course I don't remember where I wrote down the information now......and there is no information on the handle.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
The blade is just over 6cm long and 2cm wide at it's thickest point. I personally find it better to know one tool well rather than continually swapping sizes. Shorter blades lack flexibility and larger ones are too cumbersome. I find that I can get incredible detail by just using the tip but also can really slap the paint on when I need to.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
I would advise you to try out several mid size knives before settling on the one for you. Mine is much more of a trowel than a knife, the longer bladed knife shaped knives are unwieldy in my opinion and hamper painting rather than helping.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
My knife has become an extension of my right hand now, I feel totally at ease using it and know exactly how it's very gentle curved edge will perform. </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
I started using the knife due to frustration at brushes becoming clogged with a muddy mix of colours and never cleaning properly from a quick wipe with a rag. The knife allows you to have much greater control over the cleanliness of you paint but also allows you to work straight from the tube without using smelly solvents. Unfortunately you do use a lot more paint.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="text-align: left;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="text-align: left;">Mixing paint can happen both on the palette and the canvas. in order to get realistic changes in colour, especially for skies, I gradually blend away until I'm happy with the result. </span><span style="text-align: left;">Other times I will try and cleanly flick one colour on top of another without allowing them to mix at all. I always use the top edge of the knife.</span></div>

<br />
I always use a tear off paper palette block, so that each painting is started with fresh colours. Some oil colours have a nasty habit of drying overnight and if you try using them the next day it will not mix or apply properly.<br />
<br />
I naturally work from light to dark so by the end of each painting I have a a dark muddy mess on the palette and quite often break out a fresh one to come in with any highlights.<br />

Whitby actually faces North even though it's on the East coast of Yorkshire, which means that in high summer you can see the sun both rise and set out to sea. Unfortunately the dawns are at a horrific hour. This one was definitely worth the effort.</div>

This is a blast from the past from a little adventure stowing away on a billionaire's yacht and ending up in Malta. This was the view from the balcony where I had breakfast of the British Hotel in Valletta. I wish I'd done more of this kind of thing, it's always a tricky balance when you have a gallery to run. </div>

When I first started out painting in oil I actually started big i.e. 5ft (1.5m ) wide and 20" (.5m) deep. I used to buy in a large roll of canvas and stretch it onto pine from the local builders merchant. The biggest problem with that was the quality of the wood, kiln dried pine warps.</div>

To get round this I started buying seasoned tulip wood and I'd cut it to size using a cheap bench saw. Tulip wood is from the U.S. and is used by cabinet makers because of its stability. </div>

Eventually I gave in and started buying ready made canvases from a company called <a href="http://www.harrismoorecanvases.co.uk/">Harris Moore</a> who also use Tulip wood. It is expensive but at least I get the peace of mind that I'm not going to see a great string of unhappy customers complaining about bent pictures.</div>

This is my Morso guillotine, I bought it second hand a long time ago. I can't sing the praises of this machine highly enough and if you get the chance to pick one up secondhand do so. this one was bought from a contract picture framers and had seen many years of abuse but it still keeps on going.</div>

For small pictures I paint on MDF, I used to use canvas but the calluses aren't worth it. I make up a pine frame and the glue on a sheet of MDF. I'm very fortunate to have a friendly joiner who cuts up sheets of MDF for me into the require sizes </div>

I use these little blocks because they fit nicely into a tray frame. I've found over the years that a large picture generally doesn't need a frame which is fortunate since making large frames is an art in itself, but smaller picture do. My work is very textured and putting a frame over the top of it just doesn't work. The moulding for this comes as bare ( unstained ) Ash from a company in London called Rose and Hollis.<br />
