The Making of: Woolley's Bay Sunset 7x14 - Live Painting Session!

Working the Headland: Pattern and Simplification Watch me paint a larger coastal sunset at 8×12, demonstrating how the bigger the painting, the more oil you use - and how that changes everything about your technique and approach. This session shows my complete workflow from establishing a dark gray that "shakes hands" with the purple, through managing busy water, to keeping wave brightness in check against the sky. I'm working on simplification and pattern-making in a complex headland, avoiding bright anything at the edges even where the light is, and proving that unless viewers really focus, they see "foliage on a headland" not individual trees. See how to bring in cadmium red strategically without letting it dominate, why transitions matter when working colors together, and the critical importance of sky, sea, sand as the priority order for focus and finish. This session includes: • See how oil usage scales with painting size - bigger brush, bigger painting, more oil required • Learn my approach to avoiding bright edges - that's not my style, even where the light naturally sits • Watch how to "pretty up" colors by bringing in burnt sienna to redder certain areas strategically • See the bevel side of the filbert in action - working colors together with intentional transitions • Learn why over-reinforcing patterns kills a painting - viewers see the headland, not individual trees • My priority system revealed: sky, sea, sand - in that order for focus and finish • Watch how to handle challenging busy water through simplification and pattern-making • See cadmium red used strategically - it looks insanely red on the palette but disappears once other greens arrive • Learn why waves must never be brighter than anything in the sky - the golden rule applied • See how to step down overly bright blues with earlier mixed colors - subtle color relationships matter • Watch final light greens and warmth pull everything together while keeping it feeling like sunset light This 8×12 coastal study proves that bigger paintings demand different oil management and a fierce commitment to simplification over detail.
