Love your videos...always very informative and fun to watch. Thank you for putting them together and sharing your talent. I always "draw" inspiration from what you put out...thanks.
Fieldey, Great way to get the eye to look realistic and easy to follow instructions ! I would like to know if you ever use Molotow's Neon fluorescent colors for any of your projects and if not could you do a class on it . I'm currently about to use Molotow's neon green and oranges. For a project that I've been working.
+Ramon Garcia Thanks man! I've used them once before on a surfboard during a workshop - they looked boss, but the texture when the paint came out of the can was weird... it was really powdery - not sure if we hadn't shaken the can enough or were doing something wrong.
Nooooo! That's not true at all - I couldn't even really paint when I first started out, you're just seeing the end result of a lot of practice. You're totally capable of learning to paint like this, you just have to practice all the time.
You're so kind, really. I started painting on shoes 4 years ago and after seeing your first video tutorial about Molotow markers (on surfboards) I totally changed my mind abuot my work. You were my inspiration and I admired you so I tired to move my works on different surfaces and with different materials. Filled my house with Molotow sprays and markers (lol) and noticed that my work won't be appreciated here, in Italy. Sorry, don't want to take too much of your time reading, but I stil following you trying to be LIKE you. Thank you for support and kind words...you're also a really good human besides you're a great paiter. See ya.
Save your work and date it. Compare the newer stuff to the older stuff and learn where to make adjustments. Take photographs with the shadows and highlights of different times of lightings for reference. You could also practice drawing with sharp pencil and soft pencil like HB for shadows. Practice drawing all kinds of things even if it is only once a week. You will get better. Also learn prospective drawing of live scenes. You don't have to put everything in the picture. Pick out the most important things. 1) background, -look smaller; 2_middle ground- larger than background and 3) foreground - will look even larger than and go off the canvas. I believe the original The Mona Lisa by Leonardo DeVinci portrait has these elements.
No worries at all Darlene! I actually prefer to use masonite panels to canvas, but it's better to get the best quality smooth canvas you can afford and then do 3 - 4 coats of gesso, sanding in between coats.
I use Bristle smooth, heavy card paper, board, and white wash with white of the medium I am using. I let that dry. If I need to make a drawing I do it before the white wash and make it thin enough to still be able to see drawing underneath. When I started using this medium called varnish (comes in gloss/shinny or mate/not shine) for acrylics I mixed the white with some of this instead of water. This seals the board. I paint thin layers using the varnish with color and can also put different colored layers to make different colors for trees for example. The layer can also be sanded if there are lumps or unwanted stuff that should not be there.
Hi Darlene, I'll put it on the list - but it's really a case of looking carefully at your reference material and trying to paint exactly what you see, also of course, practice practice practice!
Awesome channel.!! I m a new subscriber. I think your artwork would look great on helmets, Wondering if you have done any motorcycle helmets. If not do you plan to do so? 😃
+Fieldey TV: Art & Tutorials no worries I love your style it's close to what I do. it will be worth the fluffing of your lines. Just throw some tunes in between what you need to say , no fluffing haha
this is probably a first, but im just here for the irises and pupils. my dad is making Doc Hudson from the movie Cars to put down at his texaco in Galena KS, (yes, i might as well promote his business), and he wants me to paint the eyes. seeing as im hardly good at proportions... this video is the best im getting in terms of painting eyeballs
I really enjoyed your video but you said something that made me lose my concentration and I couldn’t get it back. You said that eyelashes don’t come directly out of the eyeball which made me wonder if people really thought they did
Your tutorial on painting eyes was very helpful. You make it look so easy and your work is stunning. Thank you!
Thanks for the insight on how to capture realistic details on the real colors in an eye!
Fieldey! As always a delight to watch you work.
Why thank you kindly! +raymond carson

+Paul Boone Lol! Love a good bad pun! I'm glad to hear they're both fun and informative, it's a tough balancing act sometimes.
New subscriber here...I really like how you get to the point of how things are done. I tend to over thing and your tutorials really help alot!

It's a beautiful eye-painting, I like it very much. Greetings from east Indonesia

You're awesome...I consider quit painting every time I see you working. I won't never ever ever learn to work like you :-(

+Silvia Geleta Thank you!
I know I ask a ton of questions but I'm having problems with my canvas. What brand do you use? You're strokes are flawless and smooth!
No worries at all Darlene! I actually prefer to use masonite panels to canvas, but it's better to get the best quality smooth canvas you can afford and then do 3 - 4 coats of gesso, sanding in between coats.
Thank you for responding:)

Awesomesauce!
what colours are you using
You should pause longer between the clips, it took forever to rewind and pause. but loved your video! going to practice tomorrow
Good point Ashley - I tend to keep it pretty snappy as people get bored easily!
Fieldey I'm having a hard time getting the shadowing right around the eye. could you a tutorial step by step?
Hi Darlene, I'll put it on the list - but it's really a case of looking carefully at your reference material and trying to paint exactly what you see, also of course, practice practice practice!
Super~!
THANKYOU x
Awesome channel.!! I m a new subscriber. I think your artwork would look great on helmets, Wondering if you have done any motorcycle helmets. If not do you plan to do so? 😃
Welcome aboard +minusgreen! I think a helmet would be awesome as well, I'd totally do one if someone offered me on to experiment on!
+Fieldey TV. Hmmm .. Would it be possible for me send one to you ?
+minusgreen I'd love to do a big skull helmet if you think that'd work for you? Might be easier to talk via email if you want: hello(at)fieldey.com
+Fieldey TV just checking if you received the e-mail. 👍🏼
you're so attractive and a wonderful artist and teacher blessed be
Thank you!
you are beautiful. as is your work. i love it.
+CaveyCave martinez Hey thanks! I appreciate it!
No problem no problem at all.

what kind of paint do you use acrylic oil?
Just regular water-based acrylic :)
Thankyou
awesome videos, I'm wondering if you can do some tutorials in real time? that would be great, peace
Hahaha! Then you'd have to sit through me saying "um" a lot and also fluffing my lines... all. the. time.
+Fieldey TV: Art & Tutorials
no worries I love your style it's close to what I do. it will be worth the fluffing of your lines. Just throw some tunes in between what you need to say , no fluffing haha
Yay 😃

Good idea! I'll add it to the list

UNOS OJASOS HERMOSOS. WHAT A WONDERFULL EYES
I really enjoyed your video but you said something that made me lose my concentration and I couldn’t get it back. You said that eyelashes don’t come directly out of the eyeball which made me wonder if people really thought they did
I want to be a artist but i try to make a eye
I think she painted her own blue eye, lol!
+Kim Cornell Yep - good way to avoid being sued over copyright infringements ;)
