John Cuneo demo
Illustrator John Cuneo stopped by the illustration program at Syracuse University to demonstrate how he works and give a presentation in our symposium class.
Not only did we have the pleasure of John's visit but the students also had the opportunity to look though many of his sketchbooks, in which he draws incessantly.
John discussed his career, drawing, how he applies watercolors and answered questions from students. And congratulations to John on winning his 9th medal from the Society of Illustrators.

My Teacher, a new children's book by award-winning artist James Ransome
Just saw this book today and not to diminish your wife's great writing in any way because the book was fantastic but your paintings were so beautiful I found it difficult to pay attention to the story. Fantastic work! As a watercolor artist myself, I am floored by your skill and aspire to be at this level
It makes zero sense to do a color portrait from a black and white photo from the 1800s and makes even less sense to confuse students by teaching them to do the same. The Zorn palette is used for color paintings for the express purpose of simplifying COLORS and COLOR TEMPERATURE when painting a portrait of a human from direct observation of a living model in front of you. This demo completely does away with the most important aspect of portrait painting which is observation of a live model. How can you observe light, color, etc if working from a black and white photo from the 1800s?! The answer is.... you can't. Edges are for more important than color and Ive never heard a serious portraitist say otherwise. Completely useless demo.
Hi you came to my school
Here ten years later.....no digital stuff
i wish every illustrator had studio footage taken like this, myself included i guess.
So fun to see a favourite illustrator at work! Thanks.
U have my name
love your work!!!
Fabulous demo! Now I understand why Elwood is so particular about brushes. He NEEDS to have the POINT and the adequate BELLY in the same brush.
Wow. Thank you for your generosity in sharing your process. Your illustrations are so moving, not to mention gorgeous.
Just watched your interview at SCBWI Digital Workshop. WOW! Thank you for sharing your process here, too. I just placed a bunch of your books on hold at the library and can't wait to dive in to those and view more of your work!
Camera work during interview could have been better.
waterproof ink that works in a fountain pen without clogging is my holy grail - could you reveal the ink you use for your drawings.
John it's interesting to see your free association drawings and you laying down the color! Enjoyed it!
Elwood: Hey!!! I'm still alive....at two 42 1/2s (or 85). still loving your art work that you gave me in 1960ish when you were moving to Indiana. Here are a few of my 20"X30"watercolors done on lotion from noon till 6 p.m. Finished....no photos used. commeds invited. Please call me,,,,I fell again and would just love to talk to you. As usual I do not know how to work this damn invention but you can go to V. Leah Ferrara at Facebook and find my work and photos and sculpture. But plase call me....I am tryin to make it to the age of 100 but it is getting lharder and harder to do. You are my dear friend, and also of Don Wilson. If you happen to get this comment..my gmail is leahferrara@gmail.com. sincerely, Leah Ferrara

Beautiful. The layers made this final so rich. Thank you so much for sharing.

That was phenomenal, and very instructive, too! Thank you for allowing me to look over your shoulder, Mr. Ransome.
Thank you for posting this! Mr. Cuneo visited the University of Kansas illustration program in 2006. I was fortunate to meet him and view the sketchbooks that he brought. I always wished that I could see him at work so this video has answered a longtime wish.
Love the video! A few questions... -what kind of paper and watercolors are you using? -why did you wash off the sizing? -where did you get the reference photos? did you have to hire models? Thanks for the beautiful video!
James - do you have any more Gary Kelly demo vids? I am trying to teach myself his hard pastel technique.
Great to see him in action! Just listened to his interview with Sam Weber on "Your Dreams My Nightmares".
Thanks a million for back ground music that doesn't get in the way of the value of the video. Could leave it out all together (for me) but at least this one doesn't take away from the content by being too loud. V. worthwhile video. Have taken notes and will watch again to make sure I didn't miss anything.
Why is the value of the video so bad? Looks like it was filmed on one of the first flip phones. Glad to listen to it though!
I like your process of chopping and rearranging your images so as to better compose a piece. Prevents you from doing too many preliminary sketches :)
James,The demo was just a little less than one hour.
god if i was privelaged enough to be in this class i would have been perched up right on this man's shoulder and certainly not fussing around with a chair in the corner
Thanks for the good solid information. I learned the concept of a painting being "complete" at any stage of the process.
Thanks, James and Mike, for putting this video on RUclips. It's a really solid, demo and sensible advice. How long did you actually spend on the demo?
Thank you so much for making this video. Just by watching you, I've learned much more of how painting is approached. I like how you have control over each stage, and can go back and forth over the layers of paint. I'm assuming that there are 'drying spaces' inbetween some of these sessions. I like your limited palette, how you work with the board you can turn at will, and coming back in with pencil, etc. I have your book, "This is the Dream" and appreciate your work.
