  • Chapter 2 of Richard Schmid's "Alla Prima II" is about painting what you see. This in depth book review goes into detail explaining what each chapter is about and includes sharing a few of the photos of Schmid's paintings and a few quotes from the book. The idea is to give the viewer a better idea about whether they want to purchase the painting book.
    Chapter 2 is mostly about painting what you see and brush stroke strategy with a little art history built in. This video includes images from master painters such as Zorn, Sargent, Henri, Serov, and Twachtmann for brush stroke examples. It also touches on Chiaroscuro painting as a historical style developed by Michelangelo.

    that ballerina painting of yours was a great example in painting what you see not what you know - thanks for sharing.

      Thanks! Your feedback is motivating me to want to finish the series of chapters in this book. I've gotten distracted from the project lately and convinced myself that people probably aren't getting as much out of it as I think they might and no one will notice if I don't finish the rest of the chapters. 😅

    He makes a lot of good points but I feel most of the book is just him rambling. Also the quality of the images of his paintings are very poor. It looks like they were shot with poor quality film and not digital. It’s hard to see the details in brushstrokes because it’s blurry.

    Excellent review of Chapter 2. So charismatic, genuine and funny at the end. 😊

    Surprisingly, I liked the paintings from the artists who don't use fancy brushstrokes (Serov, Henri, and Twachtmann) better than those who take care over their brushstrokes (Zorn and Sargent). Am I alone in this?

      Wow! That's such an interesting way of seeing those paintings. I have to reexamine them with this in mind. Thanks for your perspective!

    Do you recommend the hardback or softcover version of this book?

    • @danielgrove1300
      @danielgrove1300 3 года назад +2

      Re: hardcover vs. softcover,...I have the hardcover volume 1. It stays open more easily, which is great for inspiration while you're painting. Writing this just several days after Richard's passing.

    Excellent review which helps other artists to decide on a buy out or not. By any chance have you done the review of the still life book of Richard Schmidt as well?

    Excellent review. I am still undecided whether to spend the +140 EUR for the book which is the Amazon's price over here in Europe. BTW, my wife is also having Botox as a treatment for migraine and she's doing better. I wish you luck with that!

    I think alot of his painting is based on very sound drawing, the kind of quick dynamic drawing that only comes with constant practice.

    I'm starting to see Schmid more as an illustrator than a painter.. His process is that of an illustrator. This is a drawing technique. Where as a painter is first concerned with values
