Thank you so much for your time to describe almost each stroke with the exact colors names and the gradual process of reaching the final result. It has helped me a lot. I am working on a small portrait which is coming out satisfactorily and will post here when I will complete it. Thanks so much.
From what I've read blue pigment (i.e. ultramarine blue) was very expensive hundreds of years ago. That's why artists usually reserved it just for color accents such as the robes on religious figures, etc. Gorgeous portrait!
I recently found your channel. Love watching other artists and I love your technique. You paint very straight forward and simple like the old masters. Your videos are very informative just watching how you paint. Thank you for keeping your videos in real time too. Not a fan of time lapse because you learn nothing of you don't see the thought process with each stroke and when it was applied. Just great video and greater master.
Yupari. You should use non-rusting zinc covered tack nails and a special pliers to pull the canvas taut on its wooden frame, with wood inserts hammered into the corners. If you do classical painting, then you should also use glazes, the technique ensures effects you can't obtain any other way.
Thank you very much or this great video. I have a question please: Can we use Liquin gel or linseed oil instead of Neo-Megilp for oiling out the under-painting?
Beautiful, thank you. Really appreciated the closeups on the lips and eyes. Too often camera focus on some tutorials is too zoomed out to pick up well on the nuanced strokes.
Hi! I do use water mixable oil paints at times. I find they work well so long as not too much water is used and they’re really easy to clean. I still have some stuff to figure out with them, but for the most part I find them to be a really great way to avoid using mineral spirits. Hope this helps, thanks for watching my videos!
The highlights look too light(white) relative to other values.. the reference looks more yellowish on the light side.. anyway, good solid drawing, you could model the chin a bit, it has more character in the reference.. great work, tough,!
I'm confused, I thought fat over lean meant less medium and more pure paint on the top layers? Shouldn't the "lean" layers, thinned down with medium, be underneath the "fat" layers, consisting of more paint, on top?
This painting does not even remotely resemble the work of anyone who might reasonably be called an "old master" - at best its more like the hack stuff someone like Tretchikoff might have churned out.
Wow,so detailed ,stunning
Thank you 👍
Man does Yupari motivate me.
U r great artist ❤
Love how this one came out. I think this is your best portrait yet!

You are a good teacher. You explain the process very well. This is one of your best portraits. Very simple and direct. Thank you.

Well done! I like the classical approach and to see how it came together over 2 videos!

Is this a finished painting? If not , would you please upload next one? Thanks 🙏. Your portrait educational instruction is the best I have ever seen!

This is so helpful in my life and painting....thank you Yupari

Am I the only one who thinks that looks like Sarah Paulson...
Beautiful work 👌🏼

Amazing
Wowww
Fantastic...
I love it
Thanks as always
Well done! :)
The painting is more beautiful than the photo. Like she looks younger and more contemplative rather than pouty.
Do you use water mixable oil paint? What are your thoughts on that?

You are amazing 🌸💜
Thank you for this video and the time you took to do it
Keep going
You are really awsome 👍
Blue pigment was very expensive in the old master days
ultramarine blue was very expensive so not a lot used

Its good but she looks younger
