To be honest, I've looked at many landscape artists, and Schmid is the best landscape painter alive today imo.
I made this thread primarily to see if any anons know of any other landscape artists out there. I'm looking for primarily landscape artist's alive today that might have videos of their process or teaching materials like Schmid does.

>>5000297
James Gurney has a bunch of youtube videos on alla prima stuff.

>>5000277
Daniel Marshall, Jeremy Mann are both great. It’d be hard to find someone better than Richard since he’s one of the best painters to have ever lived.

>>5000297
Now that's a Chad.

>>5000297
Who's gonna tell him?

>>5000514
Solid recommendations. I agree with you about Schmid. Honestly its super difficult to find instructionals from extremely high tier landscape artists.
There's some ok instructionals from ok landscape artists, but extremely high tier ones have very little instructionals. Schmid himself only has his book and a few videos

>>5000815
tell me what
>>5000725
schmid is honestly the fucking GOAT

You could also look up the “prix de west” which is a western/cowboy/native type competition. But some of the best artists enter the competition. If you’re short of being a master then you won’t win. It’s similar to what the prix de Rome used to be but for western art.

>>5000885
I also mention watts atelier has good instructional videos on landscapes in their painting phase, going over composition, rendering various subjects, master studios, etc

The absolute hassle of plein air painting does nothing but trigger my autism, it's 50x more comfy being locked in my grandmother's basement sitting in front of a desk with my warm desk lamp turned on then draw with my pen for hours.

This is why I have so much respect for the real trad chads carrying all that easel and shit wherever they go.

Julian Onderdonk
I also reccommend Jeremy Mann, Luigi Loir, and Zhaoming Wu

i think thats part of the fun of it, makes it feel real. on the computer i just doodle and draw my thoughts or what to call it. if i stand next to a spring flood, having to put stones on the easel so that it doesn't topple in the wind (i paint in oil so wind isnt a problem), i feel more alive and awake, my painting style is totally different

>>5001158
if you ever want to give plein air a shot, consider going out and just doing sketches of a landscape than going back to your grandma's basement and painting it from memory/imagination, even digitally if you prefer. Its an excellent exercise

Ivan Shishkin (The real OG)
Albert Bierstadt (Peak Romanticism)
Claude Monet (Impressionist Jesus)
Edward Hopper (200iq Composition/Lighting
Arthur Streeton (Straya Cunt)
George Bellows (Ashcan is best painting school)
Isaac Levitan (The Russian Monet(but better))
Joaquin Sorolla (Brushwork/Light)
John Singer Sargent (The painting Chad)
Manuel Garcia Rodriguez (Clever Brushwork)
Santiago Rusinol (Render monkey)
Fritz Thaulow (This motherfucker can paint water)

These are some faves. I recommend every one of them, particularly hopper and bellows.

amazing how you can still tell the old man is asian. fucking genius

>>5001258
that kind of subject is really frustrating to paint because you cant ever get the flower to glow like irl. tried to paint a field with some blueweed in it, made me wanna give up painting because how could i ever compete with the real thing :S

>>5002344
thanks really nice list!

>>5002344
Bierstadt is horrible, Thaulow however i did not know and thoroughly enjoyed. Thanks

>>5002136
Lmao literally named Ching Chong lol

You're just shit. You have to be either very particular about your pigments or use a transparent paint and use the white of the canvas to produce a brilliant color.

>>5006588
is Julian Onderdonk shit also? if youve ever seen blue bonnets youd know that these paintings dont do them justice. yes, you could do a transparent layer but thats too fiddly for outdoor painting, for my taste anyway. what pigments do you suggest i use then? ive used ultramarine, phtalo and quinacridone magenta

>>5006646
Start with a wash of phtalo blue as a base, the slowly add ultramarine to darken the edges and a pink of your choice in the middle. You'll get the bluest flowers imaginable, provided your canvas was white.

There's nothing fiddly about working from a transparent wash. You could also go the crazy route and introduce dots of pure pigment to keep it pure and vibrant.

>>5007448
Please post an example of how you'd do it. I love to see your glowing rendition.

>>5006458
Pardon?
>>5007959
See, this is superb.

When i'll find some blue flowers, sure.

If you don't like romanticism, Bierstadt is not for you. I'm not a big fan of him myself, but he did paint some local scenes from where I live in East Burgerland which goes to display the prolific nature of his art. I always consider him relevant when it comes to landscape painting, but that's not to say that I'm not put off by his embellishments.

On the opposite end of the spectrum, I recommend hopper, because of how mundane his subjects can be compared to just how well he paints them.

The image I posted is a Parrish. He worked from photos and it bothered some of his contemporaries, but his color picking is phenomenal. There's a reason why he's one of the best selling illustrators of all time. Most of his work has a neoclassicism feel to it, but that was part of a larger revival thing during that period.

The left is a brown ground, while the right is not-that-white. The layer of a transparent pigment on a white ground will be more saturated that a white+pigment mix.

The phtalo blue is probably the BLUEest pigment i've ever seen, even cobalt blue is more INDIGO that a phtalo blue+white mix. Coincidentally you can see how saturated Quinacridone is on the left one, fantastic cold reds and really lightfast too. Modern pigments are amazing, too bad you don't get a lot more new ones very often.

Thanks for the pictures.
