I had trouble trying to paint 3 smooth haired dogs and asked you for advice. You told me to forget the dogs, look at them as light and shadow. That great advice helped me immensely, to move forward on the painting. You are such a blessing for a beginner!
Ursula, that's good to hear. I wish ALL painting instructors would focus on teaching how to see rather than just technical stuff. The technical stuff is important, but empty if a person doesn't have the composing tools.
You prolly dont give a shit but does anyone know of a tool to log back into an instagram account..? I somehow forgot the account password. I would appreciate any tips you can give me!
@Zachary Zain I really appreciate your reply. I got to the site through google and I'm in the hacking process atm. Seems to take a while so I will reply here later when my account password hopefully is recovered.
You are such a gifted teacher! You explain things so clearly as and you have helped me to see! Thank you so much for all of these helpful tips & videos!
Since my children have left home in the last three years (I am 57) and when people ask how did I start painting etc, which was again only thee years ago. I just say, I never had time before to see, I only ever looked. Great stuff, thank you. 💜
Have seen several of these tutorials TONIGHT and just watched a cute little white dog turn into several different colours. Scream! it is so obvious open yours eyes and the advice is so on the ball because you almost want to paint little furry lines and you know the dog would end up looking like a little furry ball and not real. I have just painted a blue heron (my fave) but now off to give him a second look. Thank you so much and good luck.
Thank you SO MUCH for this wonderful lesson! I'm a beginner and I really appreciate this type of instruction. I LOVE all of your Quick Tips! I will definitely look at your videos on your website.
Excelent analogy, you are helping me to see and to think, because of this I am progressing a lot.I also have some of your videos to go deeper, thank you!
I may have sd this on one of your videos before. I do watercolor. I watch your vids anyway! Your lessons on value and color are always very helpful to me. In addition, your comment (today) about deciding what the brush needs to do to get the look a specific movement in an image is a very good way to think about finding accurate texture. Thank you so much!
Thank you for your instruction on this subject. I've been struggling a little bit with creating texture and it was really helpful to see how to focus on the values of the colors in the fur as I apply the brush to the canvas. I'm about to attempt to paint a short haired dog , a dachshund, so I'll be trying to remember this lesson as I paint!
i have a question: Do you distinguish purple and violet? and why do people often confuse or interchange these two colours? thank you for your very educative and entertaining videos.
R.A., I use the terms interchangeably. Violet is the tern most often used on commercial color wheels and some tube colors, but dioxazine purple is used for that particular tube color. The theorists say that violet is a spectral color and purple a pigment color. Some say that violet is lighter than purple. Frankly, I think in today's culture, it's a matter of nomenclature.
@@IntheStudioArtInstruction i always thought that violet is leaning towards blue, and purple leans more red. Thank you for clarifying this and have a wonderful day!
Thank you so much! Since I found you here yesterday, I've started watching all the Quick Tips with Quick Tip No. 1. I'm in love with you. You remind me of my beloved grandmother who was born in Georgia. So, intelligent, caring, and a great teacher. I'm so excited!
Absolutely not! A painting done alla prima might have a single layer or perhaps two. The old standard of building with layers is only one approach to paintings.

Always a pleasure. So much of painting is universal among all the painting mediums.
Thank you for a wonderful tutorial on painting fur! :). Have a great day. Marie
My pleasure.
Another fantastic lesson Dianne, great, love the way you teach. That is a other talent. So great that you understand us dummy's.
Thanks, Carla. It's a pleasure doing these.
Really opened my eyes on how to see and paint fur!
Great!
I used this Quick tip Video to paint my English setter in the snow, and it worked out great for me, thank you
Wonderful!

It always works to look for what the subject is made of rather than the subject itself. Good luck with your dachshund painting.
Thanx ma'am.A very helpful demo indeed,that lent me an insight to paint anything besides fur.
😊 My pleasure.
This is great. Thank you for helping me to SEE!
My pleasure.
I adore your videos! Thank you!
Thanks. It's a pleasure to do these.
WOW . . . such a powerful Quick Tip! THANK YOU!

"What I recommend is learn how to see." I just busted a gut laughing. No disrespect. I love your teaching style so!
Thanks. I love laughter.
Very helpful lesson, thank you very much.
My pleasure.
You are so welcome!
Great class. learned a lot. Thank you.
Wonderful
Thank you. I have the same problem but with black fur.
Just ask the question: what am I seeing, and allow various areas of the subject speak to you.
Thank you.
i have a question:
Do you distinguish purple and violet?
and why do people often confuse or interchange these two colours?

My pleasure.
So nice. How you do it and thank you for all ,
My pleasure to share.
Very good video!
Thanks.
I want to see the finished pup!
Perhaps you could do the exercise and create that finished pup.
What kind of pencil/pen do you use to sketch or shade under an oil painting?
For studies and these demos, to set up the sketch and the notan, I use a Tombow N65 pen/brush.

You bet!
Thank you so much
My pleasure.
Thank you... very valuable... :)
So glad to be helpful.
I usually struggle with big tree realistic painting
Observation is always your best bet.

What do you use to paint the notan?
It varies. For my small demos, I use a Tombow N65 brush pen. For my larger paintings, I use either acrylic or gouache.
I was told that a painting should have at least 5 or 6 layers . Do you agree with that ?
Absolutely not! A painting done alla prima might have a single layer or perhaps two. The old standard of building with layers is only one approach to paintings.
👍👍👍
😊
Your a badass
🙂 Thanks.
