Another short reel of a recent still life that was one of my favorites. Probably my favorite way to paint. #watercolor #loosewatercolor

Always happy to spread the word to the turd community.

Thank you. It was a wondeful subject to paint. I've attached my original smaller piece that was painted plein air. I thought the building deserved a bigger treatment.

Michele Clamp Art @micheleclamp.com · 02/08/2026

Thank you. I assure you it isn't and every painting is a battle. As I mentioned in one of my other replies the way these videos are made does tend to make it look obvious and straightforward.

My pleasure Ellen. These videos are somewhat misleading as I've taken 3 hour session and reduced it down to 30s of 'action'. I also speed it up 2x to make it more 'zippy' and to fit it into a short clip. It does tend to make it look much easier than it really is.

Not a triumph today but I learned I need to rethink what I'm doing here. #beachpainting #beachart #capecodpaintings

Some new ChromaMagic 4 videos are up on YouTube. New palettes and screens. I hate doing these but James insists... (not really) #chromamagic #watercolorpalette #watercolor #oilpainting #oilpalette youtu.be/puOEGgujZeE

It’s almost there!! Just the nail biting app review to go..:

Indeed. It’s a steep learning curve.

Michele Clamp Art @micheleclamp.com · 24/06/2026

I admit it. We succumbed to some Claude help for generating wall mock-ups.

Cheers Ben. Much appreciated from you!

Never been here before and it’s an amazing place. The Campion Center in Weston MA. Extremely windy so this is one hand on the brush and the other holding everything down #pleinair #campioncenter #watercolorlandscape #watercolorpleinair #westonma

Another day and yet another plein air location. Today was the Case House in Weston. Quite a busy subject so trimmed it down to the essentials. This isn't finished yet but the colors and shapes are in and I'm cautiously optimistic #pleinair #westonma #casehouseweston

Gussied around with composition a little bit on yesterday’s plein air. Has promise now I think #watercolorpleinair #pleinair

Michele Clamp Art @micheleclamp.com · 09/06/2026

Thank you. I'm not hating it as much. In a few days I'll probably try a bigger, more finished version to see if something can rise from the ashes :-)

Michele Clamp Art @micheleclamp.com · 09/06/2026

Crazy difficult this. This time I tried a sketchbook and sketch easel with pan paints. I thought it would be easier having a smaller setup. It wasn't. Hated it. Made it twice as hard. Loved the subject though the result was very so so. #watercolorpleinair #pleinair #trombettas

Thank you. Those deep red shadows are my favorite bit too.

Another plein air. This time at the Wayside Inn in Sudbury. Quite pleased with this and has a nice sense of the day #pleinair #waysideinn #watercolorlandscape #watercolorbuildings #sudburyma

Awww! That cat gets more outrageous every day. At least he doesn't steal the gummy bears.

That is lovely! And very happy you enjoy the videos.

Broke out the gouache on this one. Definitely brings out the light on that front tree. Probably putting the brushes down now #watercolorcityscape #concordma #newenglandwatercolor #watercolorlandscape #watercolorchuch

Last plein air session of the spring with Caleb Stone. Right in the center of Concord today in Monument Square. Trying hard to fix the light and leave it. #pleinair #watercolor #watercolorpainting #concordma #watercolorcityscape #watercolorlandscape

Ha! Hadn't seen it that way but you're right.

Michele Clamp Art @micheleclamp.com · 22/05/2026

It was 96 degrees that day so I’m glad that came through!!

Michele Clamp Art @micheleclamp.com · 22/05/2026

Thanks Sharon. Sketches always have something personal about them it’s true.

I used to get the two Salems round here mixed up a lot!

You know I dare not have an opinion on this as views may differ :-) But for me Concord MA wins out.

I had a quarter sheet with a wash on so tried a small version of The Old Manse in Concord (MA not NH). #watercolor #watercolorpainting #watercolorlandscape #art #concordma
