Townhouse DVD : Light And Atmosphere In Oil Landscapes With Chris Daynes

Chris is passionate about plein air oil painting and in this, his second Townhouse DVD , he travels to his ‘spiritual painting home’ of North Norfolk. Norfolk is all about big skies and it's these skies that feature prominently in so much of Chris' work. In this DVD Chris, who is based in Kent returns to some of his favourite painting locations including Blakeney Harbour and Cley Next The Sea. Chris demonstrates his personal approach to creating winning paintings using differing approaches depending on the subject. His specialty is creating wonderfully atmospheric oil landscapes that are vibrant and zinging with light. Just to prove that the outdoor artist has to learn to adapt to conditions, in this DVD Chris paints both under a blazing summer sun and in heavy rain. It's the rain picture which he was forced to complete in just 45 minutes which is featured on the DVD front cover. As Chris says: ‘It just shows you what you can do when you are up against the clock!’ Artist: Chris Daynes
