I accidentally scheduled this for 11pm instead of a.m. so it was out for an hour.. then i re scheduled it. ANYWAYS, hope you enjoy let me know what you think!.
SLEW I have also been asked to paint a dog in oil .. kinda excited to ...thought I might do a little one first ... That orange colour base first is what colour ,.?.. Thank you
I think that people who criticize the transfer or grid method don't realize that even if you did transfer an image and skip over the free-hand drawing, you still gotta paint it, and that alone is a task that only a skilled artist can pull off. Congratulations!
Ade le hey! So the transfer method refers to either using a projector to trace the lines into a canvas or using graphite transfer paper to trace an existing drawing made on paper or digital which has been printed. Some people also use a grid method which is basically drawing from a grid or coordinate method which guarantees perfect proportions
Exactly. also the end result is the exact same, only with transfer you are saving A LOT of time in the prep stages of a painting, so as you can get to the actual painting stages. I find it's usually only non artists who critique such. It is an annoying criticism
@@livetochange974 Who says he cant draw. he could grid that out if he wanted but why waste all that time and energy for the same result, especially with a commision when its not like your're getting paid by the hour. when you say 'colouring' is easier to draw im guessing you dont paint
There was a time when I wouldn't have used carbon paper to transfer images, but in our world as artists, we need to think of how to best manage our time verses the money we are paid to do a commission. Do I love drawing freehand? Yes. Is it cost effective? No. Clients want to pay less and less for our art, and yet we need to make a living. So the use of helpful tools such as carbon paper is essential to our work. In the end, the painting process is still "our talent" and that's the most important thing. 😊
Thats 100% ok! I remember when I first started painting i was always ashamed to say that i used a reference picture. As if having a reference makes the painting less skillful xD Me personally i prefer to draw freehand even if it takes more time, not only because i feel more accomplished but also because i feel as though i learn more and pay closer attention to forms, lighting, how things work ect. It is all personal preference and no less impressive if you trace the imagine before painting it.
@@c.j2138 I agree that drawing freehand helps you get better. And I do that when I can. Sadly in this world of "want t cheap and fast" it doesnt allow me to do freehand as often as I like. Clients rarely know what goes into creating art. And we as artists suffer for it. Thanks for that lovely reply!
Dude I just realised how unique your channel is for an art RUclips I can tell you put a lot of effort into the film side of things that’s what I am going to do when I start my channel
I'm a Painting BFA grad, I didn't start use image transfer/grid methods for the first couple years. I too thought that is was "cheating" or "faking"- which it still CAN be. Some people without formal training or mastery of foundational observation/drawing skills will rely on these methods as a crutch to compensate for their lack of skill. For example, I had one colleague explain "I can paint but I can't draw." Which is like saying "I can run but I can't walk." Understanding of the fundamentals is as important as any other stage of your process However, many trained and talented artists, professional and amateur, use these methods as a tool for accuracy and effeciency. They can draw, but these tools help them be more effective with their time. And as an artist selling work/commissioning, spending less time helps to make your work available to more people by making it more affordable.
I 100% feel the same way. And I'm an MFA grad. Understanding fundamentals is the most important thing. Once you understand, you are then free to use the tools at your disposal.
"Some people without formal training or mastery of foundational observation/drawing skills will rely on these methods as a crutch to compensate for their lack of skill. " Sorry, I don't get your point. What is the problem with that? The important thing at the end is creating a piece of art. Doesn't matter how. I don't have mastery of foundations, heck not even the basics, but I love creating art and I use whatever is at my reach. Grids, transfers, stabilizers (in digital painting), etc etc.
One's who "trace" usually get caught. You can easily tell by how their portfolio is and how consistent certain parts are. Especially by artists or enthusiasts because there are tell-tale signs. Same thing goes for people who use digital filters and fx on stock photos then call it a painting.
If you couldn't draw and you used transfer paper it would still be legit if you said you couldnt draw from the beginning. I use transfer paper all the time for multiple reasons. Firstly - it saves time and gives you the most accurate rubric to go off. A.) You still have to paint good Lastly - its all in love and fun!! Bless up!! Thanks Slew Pac for the awesomeness you continue to bless us with!
Looks really great. Im so glad you mentioned it that it takes all previous experience of smaller projects that end up culminating in the total arsenal of experienced and aquired skill to end up in each next bigger projects or projects of totally different sort. I am also glad that you mentioned the cost. People underestimate the materials required to complete any picture. Afterall we are not painting on printer paper. My colored pecils for example cost $5.00 each or sometimes more. The only thing they see is paint on paper. Sadly often times they dont even see how many layers it requires. How time consuming it is. That is why most dont understand or want to accept the price for art and are therefore totally unrealistic. Your painting is truly beautiful.
I just want to say to you and every other artist or individual who sees this; Art is Art no matter the form or how you choose to do it. Don't ever feel like you have to explain YOUR choices in YOUR art to anyone. Individualism is what makes all of you special. FREEDOM!!!! LOVE&LIGHT!!!!
I love watching your videos and how you let your audience know that you don’t need much to paint. It’s inspiring and it’s super motivating to see an artist of our generation creating awesome artwork ! Love it dude ! Keep it up !
THANK YOU. For being brave enough to speak about your transfer process. I agree. After years of hand drawing. Sometimes I don't have the time. And I use a projector to turn a 2 hour process into a 2 minute one. Especially when working large. Thanks slew
I live in an attic. I turned a 4ft square space into my studio and converted an old high table to a desk/easle. When I do big pieces or spray paint I just hang old sheets where I see my mess going.
Amazing ArtWork the painting turned out super beautiful 😍 and I loved the video stoping to give information is great I love that working with oils is still new for me but I really enjoy it and watching others using it really helps keep me into it thank u for showing ur process
I love his positive outlook on painting. He is so open to learning and it only makes watching his amazing art being created more enjoyable. Keep doing what you're doing!
Don’t apologize for your methods. Enjoy the outcome if your satisfied. You did a great job on the dog! Practice distant (perspective) impressions, try using a 1 1/2 “ brush, loading it with a cool colour and pressing it against the canvas, then lifting away. Darker colours as you move closer. Good results.
I love how seriously you took this commission! Love the process and how you shared your struggles and I really appreciated your honesty with where you were at throughout. You’re killing it :)
Dude, I was so stoked when I found carbon copy paper! A serious game changer. Had no idea it even existed until recently, but now I use it to transfer my own sketches onto canvases or watercolor paper to paint. I definitely could see how people could think it's "cheating" because it does make the whole creative process much easier, but I like to think that's due to the fact that it is indeed a tool like you say. Anyways, dope video as always sir!
Slew I just wanted to let you know how I love watching your videos and how big of an impact you have on my own artistic journey! Keep making them so pleasant to watch and good luck in the new year!
Hi am a Kenyan artist who recently started a RUclips channel you really inspire me this process I have learned a lot..I am also low-key scared of painting landscape s but after seeing this I might try thanks ☺️
Great video, amazing painting!! You really captured all that Mogli was. His personality, that expression on his face...everything. I love the video of your process, you are an amazing artist and teacher. Can't wait to see what is next!!!!
I enjoyed the style of the video so much!! Content, personality, skills, packed with a lot of art! Thank you for sharing all this @slew What a great artist!!! 👏👏👏👏👏👏 Much love Vivi from🇨🇭
I just found your channel today, and I absolutely love it! You are such an amazing artist! The art you're making is soooo good and really inspires me to start practising my oil painting more
I actually would like to know how to draw gras it looks so easy on your timelaps but I am painting freehandly and always end up redefining my painting till I get frustrated. And I love what you did there. Its nice to see you work on your paintings! the doggo looks great!
I think carbon paper is a great way to get the “bones” of a piece onto your canvas. The true talent is displayed when you paint the bones to give the painting life! Painting animals is one of my passions. This is gorgeous!
Dude, my room looks like yours 😂 I paint on my bed! I have a fancy easel that I hardly use. I love how neat you are in your paintings and how colourful. And I love your studio I wish I had one Lol. Great job!! Hello from Texas!
SLEW Well thanks for the videos man.. I mean it. seeing the progress of your art in life is really interesting and it helps a lot in our journeys as artists too

waiting , for , tha,,,,,,,,,,,,,t wtf 50 hours emm Van fuks sake open your eyes.......his mummy pays for his studio,, he cant paint , this kid needs to go back to school and learn how to stop living of the bank of mummy
So sick! I might challenge myself to a larger piece soon, but I have just a low attention span which means I get bored easily. Gotta get over that sometime.
Beautiful thing about trees, they’re individually unique! Pointy tops, fluffy outters, as long as you have the shading it turns out beautiful! For the style of painting this is, they came out phenomenal ! I focus on landscape painting and still have trouble with trees! And don’t get me started on grass haha, Keep up the great work!
I just finished my v first commission & was pretty pumped about it lol. I’ve been drawing faces since I can remember & connect a lot with your style 🤜🏼🤛🏼 you’re hella talented... excited to see you grow
I'm a new sub!! I just discovered your channel and I'm already obsessed with you! You're so refreshing, and love your content. Just been binge watching your vids... Keep 'em coming!!! :)
You're fast becoming 1 of my favourite artists to watch on RUclips, your passion and drive really shows when you speak about what you're doing. It really helps me to feel like things are achievable if I keep pushing forward and learning. Thanks dude!
Tracing/transfering is only a bad thing if you want to learn. You sir, have learned enough that you could draw it freehand with relative ease. People that whine about tracing obviously still need to learn. Incredible painting.
You absolutely crushed this commision. You did an amazing job Slew. As far as the carbon paper, no way it is ‘cheating’ you def could of did this without it but if this is a big commission I would of userd carbon paper also. Happy New Year Sam...all the best to you and the fam...looking forward to seeing what you do in 2020... Hopefully a SLEW Merch drop in 2020?!?!?!??!
You’re a great artist, who gives a shit what someone thinks! Very talented brother I love the way u film as well that record player sound, music, your whole process is dope.
I find it so dope that you actually do everything yourself, you're making the canvas, you're the one painting it. You're inspiration to be as a aspiring woodworker and artist from the Netherlands. I would love to one the do a collab with you. I doubt we'll be able to do that soon, but maybe one day.. I've gotta keep having dreams, right?
@@hatakek6786 what if its an image that I have already sketched freehand several times until I find a composition that appeals to me? I don't use carbon paper for the transfer as I was told many decades ago there was a problem between the carbon and oil paint, however that may have been corrected by now. Still using charcoal.
Nice work! Looks like you handled the grass and trees just fine. Wondering if you could go into how you priced this out? I'm doing some painting and been trying to research how to price. Thinking about coming up with a price per sq. in. Thanks.
You did a beautiful job! I'm with you about the trees and such. I love to paint figures but although I love to look at landscapes, painting them bores me. You brought it all together wonderfully! What method do you use to enlarge and print your photos?
I accidentally scheduled this for 11pm instead of a.m. so it was out for an hour.. then i re scheduled it. ANYWAYS, hope you enjoy let me know what you think!.

@@TheAutomaton37 NO hahah! i just messed up the scheduling!
Do you make the frames or you buy them somewere

“You don’t need a studio” yeah but everything gets dirty lol 😅 great work btw
Ale Saenz Art my room has nice carpet😅 I’m only 14 and I suck really bad at painting and drawing but I really wanna get better

You really slayed the grass! It is perfect. I appears as though you painted each blade one at a time - Great work!
It's so exciting to see your oil painting process! I went back to oil painting a year ago, and it's been fun seeing what is possible. Keep going!
I defo Agree with you, If you have tools to optimize the time do it, at the end, you'll always see the hand of the artist! Great Job!
Nothing is cheating! There are no rules...art is art. Whatever gives you a beautiful finished product. Love your attitude my dude!
Amazing ArtWork the painting turned out super beautiful 😍 and I loved the video stoping to give information is great I love that working with oils is still new for me but I really enjoy it and watching others using it really helps keep me into it thank u for showing ur process
In these days of trouble and hate, Love seeing a creative person. Much Respect and Love.
The final result is what really counts, the painting cannot be transferred! Awesome results, as usual!!! I do appreciate your honesty!!!
another great option is a projector! i use a fairly inexpensive one - i think $30 or so - and then you can resize the photo, move it around, etc :)

Carbon paper - doesn't matter where/how you start, it is where you finish that counts. Excellent job.
This dog painting came out awesome, props man. Love your videos, very entertaining
Yes, Slew, we'll let you have that carbon copy paper!

I would love to one the do a collab with you. I doubt we'll be able to do that soon, but maybe one day.. I've gotta keep having dreams, right?
"I find it so dope that you actually do everything yourself" except the most important part the drawing.
@@hatakek6786 So you're saying a woodworker can't have a tape measurer or make a template to use? Use common sense.
@@anriroze11 you can use what ever too you want. but tracing an image isnt doing it your self.
@@hatakek6786 what if its an image that I have already sketched freehand several times until I find a composition that appeals to me?

I might also add your style of painting reminds me a lot of one of my favorite American painters, Grant Wood
Nice work! Looks like you handled the grass and trees just fine. Wondering if you could go into how you priced this out? I'm doing some painting and been trying to research how to price. Thinking about coming up with a price per sq. in. Thanks.
You did a beautiful job! I'm with you about the trees and such. I love to paint figures but although I love to look at landscapes, painting them bores me. You brought it all together wonderfully! What method do you use to enlarge and print your photos?
Thumbs up! Grass turned out nice too
much love!
