Ahh thank you Paolo means a lot to hear. I try and keep my approach to digital art as close to using real paint and mediums as possible as my head just doesn't work in a digital way hence the colour selection method. More videos coming soon if no jobs come through in the meantime!😂 Cheers again sir

Thank you so much!🙌

Thank you so much lovely to hear! Wishing you well

Ahh that's lovely to hear thank you! Hope it goes well and you enjoy the process 👍

Thank you so much for your kind words! I love the way he painted hair too, captured the locks, flow and shine effortlessly. Thanks for watching!

Thank you so much!

Thank you so much, lovely to hear you enjoyed it! Good luck with your cloud paintings, I'll be definitely making more in this series for other types of clouds and times of day etc. Cheers again!

Hmm for the colours I initially picked a selection of blues and creams and then a few hues with a more green tint and a few pure whites for the highlights. Unfortunately on Artrage it doesn't use colour codes as I picked off the colour wheel. Experiment with your colours and you'll find a palette that works for you.

Ahh that's lovely to hear many thanks!

He's definitely one of mine too for all those reasons you brilliantly put (gooeyness 👌🏻) and for just evoking the period and exuding coolness too. Thanks for watching!🙌

You're very welcome, thanks for watching!🙌👍

Slow and steady growth is fine with me but it's a nice milestone to hopefully hit for sure!😂 Cheers 👍

Thank you so much, lovely to hear! More coming soon 🙌👍

Thank you so much, lovely to hear. Cheers for watching!🙌👍

Ahh fantastic to hear many thanks for watching! Been a bit busy with work so video slightly delayed but more coming hopefully soon. 👍

Totally each to their own and whatever works for people is cool with me but it never seemed to make sense in my head. I follow certain rules or guides sketching things but generally use my eye and tweak until right like you. Definitely don't like using digital tools to move things or resize, feels very unnatural and one more step away from 'real' mediums. Thanks for watching 🙌👍

Ahh that's great to hear, hope it helps and you do indeed crack it. Thanks for watching!🙌

You're very welcome and thank you for watching! 🙌

Ahh many thanks, really lovely to hear! I'll be definitely doing a video about how I got started as a digital artist soon. Thanks again for watching 🙌👍

Thank you so much, lovely to hear! Totally agree with you about Artrage, great gateway into digital art. Simple to learn and use basic tools but enough depth to really refine for the more heavy/ professional user too. Still feels the most intuitive and natural using the oil paint out of all the digital art programs out there. Looking forward to future updates. Thanks again and cheers for watching! 🙌

Ahh thank you for that, no need to apologise at all. Always happy to take feedback both positive and negative, but there's always a good way of doing it. Thanks again, and hopefully some of my future videos will help and inform you a bit more on the art tutorial information. 👍

@@philgallowaydraws My suggestion would be to know how you set some tools, as you did with the oil brush at the beginning. As is the case with the Knife palette to soften the brush strokes and blend between shades. Without a doubt your comments on the history of art are enriching, but I miss "the technical part" of some parts of your work. And I must admit that I have learned about your style by doing another. Of course light years from you, but I'm doing it. I'm sorry for the bad start.

No worries at all. Will try and show more on the brush set up in future, I don't actually do much to the brushes in terms of tweaking it's more done on feel and softness of touch/pressure to get the desired mix or flow of the paint but I can definitely go into more detail in future on maybe a more technical tutorial rather than these fun mashups. Cheers again for understanding 👍

Not wrong at all, I really like the way the thumbnail came together just as much too! 👍

@@philgallowaydraws I'm also a content creator, so I may have been drawn to it more than others

Ahh that's good to hear, I'm still very new to making RUclips videos so was making it up as I went along creating that thumbnail!😂 I thought it looked cool so nice that it caught your eye! Many thanks for watching and getting in touch👍

Many thanks, yup I get that but I do quite like that he may well be daydreaming or stressing thinking about the restaurant like his character often does etc. cheers for the feedback and for watching!

Ahh thank you, good to be back!

The desktop pc I'm drawing on is the amazing Surface Studio 2.

Ahh that's great and lovely to hear thank you for watching! I've had the surface studio 2 for just under 4 years pretty much when it was released I think, absolutely no issues with it at all, love it for work and being creative. I have the surface laptop studio too but don't use that as much, really good machine too though.

@@philgallowaydraws Thanks!

Great analysis! Yup he was a master at leading the viewer round the painting and to the areas he wants you to go much like the High Renaissance/Baroque Masters did. Thanks for watching and cheers for getting in touch🙌

@@philgallowaydrawsanytime! You did an incredible study I can’t wait to see more awesome videos!

Ahh thank you so much, lovely to hear! More videos coming soon 👍

@@philgallowaydraws can’t wait!🤘🔥

It's the Surface Studio 2 computer. Fantastic to work on. Many thanks for watching!

Ahh that's lovely and great to hear, many thanks for watching! More coming soon 🙌👍

Ahh that is so nice to hear thank you so much. More long form videos coming soon 🙌👍

Ahh that's lovely to hear thank you! More videos coming soon, client work has got in the way a bit this last week or so!😂 Check out some of my other ones to tide you over 👍

Artists have always learnt and copied the old masters and other contemporaries throughout all time to improve, develop and raise their art game hopefully and yes with their hands (or feet/mouth in some cases). But hey you guys keep prompting a computer to take others work and learning and then take the credit for yourself at the end. If that's what you class as art and being an artist, it's just sad. I am very explicit about my source references and processes and don't rob from artists and say it's mine. Ai as a reference tool and guide can be really helpful for some but claiming you've created something new and original is theft and again is really sad you're missing all the benefits of learning skills, the slow process benefits for mindfulness and mental health and reward of creating something 'with your own hands'. Any ol' fool can ask a computer to make something, there is a lot f different!😂 But thanks for watching 👍🏻

I agree he totally doesn't get the appreciation. As far as I was aware through my research he was cited as being openly gay, but like you say it could've been as open as you could be back in those days. Interesting man and life for sure and a hell of an artist, one of my favourites. Hopefully with this video doing well he can get a little more appreciation. Thanks for watching!👍

Ahh that's great to hear thank you so much! Will definitely be doing a video about drawing faces soon! 👍

There's been a few people asking about prints. I will try and look into it in the coming weeks, keep an eye on my website or I'll post a wee video saying they are available. Thanks for watching and the interest!🙌

Will do! Many thanks for watching🙌

Thank you so much, this is really lovely to hear. So glad you're liking the videos, good luck with your art. Be bold and play with the textures and you'll get that look. Cheers again and see you on the next one!🙌🙏🏻

Thanks for the feedback, I don't feel it's too dark or contrasty when compared directly to the original newspaper print by Leyendecker, but appreciate you taking the time to comment. It's never meant to be an exact copy, it's my version and me having a bit of fun whilst hopefully teaching a little about the artist, the film/TV show and the techniques used. Cheers again and thanks for watching 👍

@@philgallowaydraws No problem and to you for answering it, my english tends to read to strong because is my second language I'm aware of that, but in my intent to get the point across I tend to prioritize that. We desensitize ourselves from reading images or at least the details in the greys, using contrast is not bad but it tends to burn the image when is used on extremes, blacks being blacks and whites white, cold colors (values) do that, try to abstain yourself from it, what I do is not rushing to 100 even 85% to blacks or whites, I downplay it by 70 or 75%, then I add the detail contrast where I think it needs it, in low usage, Leyendecker used to use a lot of turpentine with the oils, basically making it almost a watercolor experience, with not much contrast, and of course his art deco style, prioritizing shapes over forms. Of course the exact copy is not the intent is the study over I get it, just hopes all this makes sense and serves you in your journey, try the -50 thing, in this piece the white background should wash out and give more body to sustain the objects and ground them in a place. Cheers to you to mate!

Thank you! Really lovely and great to hear. Landscapes etc are definitely on the horizon (pardon the pun!) Thanks again for watching and getting in touch 🙌

Hey there thanks for watching. To smooth the paint and blend the colours I used the palette knife tool from the tools bar and in the settings had it set to no loading so it only moved the paint on the canvas and didn't put any new paint down. A delicate touch can feather the paint together or a stronger stroke will push one colour over another if the paint is thick enough on the canvas. Hope that helps! 👍

Ahh that's fantastic to hear and great feedback thank you! Will definitely be doing more of these mash-ups along with a bit more standard tutorials and reviews etc plus some other ideas for the year ahead. Thanks for the support!🙌

Ahh that is really nice to hear thank you. Fingers crossed the channel can keep growing. More videos to come soon.

Thank you!🙌

Great to hear! Thanks for watching

Thank you, lovely to hear! Hope you enjoy them too, let me know if you'd like to see anything in particular in future videos. New one dropping very soon hopefully 👍

Same! Some of my favourites for sure, many thanks for watching 👍

@@philgallowaydraws I appreciate the history lesson too.

Thank you that's great to hear!

Thank you so much!

Thank you! I may well do a print run of it some day, keep an eye on my website in case it happens👍

Huge thanks!!
