"Taranaki" 14.5x25" Oil on Canvas by Richard Robinson (Studio Painting).
A commissioned piece for a wedding. Lots of fun. Again with the washes of Water Mixable Oils to start with and then layering on the thick paint, most with walnut oil as the…

"The Lupins Out The Back" Oil on Canvas by Richard Robinson
Starting to get the hang of these water soluble oils. Laying down very watery washes to begin with makes for easier painting on top. Most previous paintings have been attempted over an oily base which makes it difficult to paint over and the paint doesn't stick so well to an oily surface.…

"Palm Cove" 12x12" Oil on Canvasboard by Richard Robinson
Just got back from camping up the East Coast of Australia for 3 weeks with the family. The trip ended in Palm Cove where I gave a 2 day plein air painting workshop to 12 students. (Hi guys!) Most of them hadn't painted outdoors before and as always it was a bit of a shock to the system as they battled…

"Waimea Canyon" 16x20" Oil on Canvas by Richard Robinson
Spent the day up Waimea Canyon today grappling with this very complex scene. It took about 6 hours so I was very happy to be done at the end of this one. I did enjoy the puzzle of it all but after a few the sun had moved so much the scene became more of a hinderance than a help and I was glad of having…

"Lawaii Beach" Oil on Board by Richard Robinson
A great day today painting at this wonderful spot in Hawaii with Eileen and Karen. This scene is another good example of having great elements in a landscape which need to be tweaked to bring out their best. In this case I moved a cliff, the sun and added a lot of sea-spray and…

"Mangawhai Estuary" 14x17" Oil on Canvas by Richard Robinson
I visited beautiful Mangawhai today and painted this in between the showers (those are raindrops on the canvas). Very lucky with the weather and the light overall though - I thought I was only going to get grey lighting today so I'm very glad I took the chance and came out here. You can see from the…

"Spring, Yosemite" 22x22" Oil in Canvas
Our first day painting in Yosemite today and I spent about 6 hours on this one battling it out as the light changed completely. We're all so awestruck with the beauty at every turn…
