A few weeks ago I painted at the New York Botanical Garden with a group of friends. Here's a video of the adventure.

(Link to YouTube)I used casein paint, on a canvas-covered panel, and then I varnished the painting to give the dark colors more depth.

This is so beautiful! I just had to share the link on the Dinotopia Message Board. The video clearly shows how you begin with broad swaths of color before progressing to fine detail -- without even a pencil sketch underneath. How much is this method transferable to digital painting? Also this is one of your best video productions: I especially like the transitions from life to the painting.
Thanks for the compliment, Bob. This was an unusual way of working. In the early stages, I didn't have a lot of solid measurements to work with. I've seen a lot of digital painters start in this very loose way and refine it as they go.
thanks for sharing this information and this painting looks amazing i am big lover of special paintings

James,
Thanks so much for your answer. Come to think of it, there's another video where you demonstrate this working method on your blog:

I'll have to try it despite my timidity (of course with digital painting the eraser and undo are my friends!).
Best,
Bob (a.k.a. bricabrach)
such a beautiful one
