this is the best tutorial on youtube for constructive advise, after spending months looking, not like most that just want to use tutorials to demonstrait their skill, thank you
Really love the baking paper idea, it works so well! Also using glazing for tinting and shadows is so much easier than trying to apply new layers with acrylics, thank for the tutorial and great tips!
Hahaha! I know right? So depressing! I like to take a photo at the ugly stage and take another when it's complete so I can remind myself that the ugly stage is never permanent.
I believe it's a ugly stage to those on the sidelines. For me as the artist I know what direction it's going. That's one reason why I don't draw in front of people, that doesn't know the process of creating art.
Same! Sometimes it can really suck to be an artist with OCD, Borderline PD, and BiP, because that ugly stage is my nemesis. I have so many unfinished paintings because most times, when I hit that stage, I get too frustrated and put it aside. Then I start something new. Sometimes, I'll work on 4 or 5 pieces at the same time, alternating them when I hit frustration stages. But occasionally, I can virtually see that ugly stage blossom into perfection in my mind. I'm confident in my artistic flow to get me there, so I keep going. I recently discovered that I'm manic when that happens. Some people commit random acts of violence or murder in their mania. I, however, complete art pieces. 🤷♀️
It's a matter of taste, but I actually really liked this right before the outlines were finished. I have done a lot of photography and some digital painting, but this is a really useful tutorial as I get ready to do my first acrylic painting!
Thank you for sharing your techniques in such an easy to digest format. I learned everything I wanted to know from this tutorial. Looking forward to seeing more from you!
first time i se your work and i love it! i love also how u explaine what u do! i just started to draw and paint so im learning a lot here. 😊 thank you!❤
thank you for this tutorial it seems really good :) my papa died in December from liver cancer and he and my mum was really close- it tore her apart, her birthday is coming up soon and i knew in the first place i was gonna paint her something and i’m gonna attempt to paint papa. i already have painting skills but i’ve never painted a realistic person. wish me luck guys 🥺🥲
Good luck! That is such a beautiful present - I know you'll do your papa justice and your mum will love it. I think if you paint from the heart and try to capture the essence of him you can't go wrong.
I always had trouble with painting. I just hated shading and highlighting and mixing. But now I think I'll give it another shot, your work turned out awesome.
I hear you! I started out with drawing not painting, and I found acrylics really frustrating and annoying. Like anything, with a bit of dedicated practice you'll be enjoying the hell outta them in no time.
thanks so much! I am doing a project and have never been taught to paint, my art teacher didn't really teach us much.. this helped me so much! and I got a really good percent xx thank youu!!!
My best friend is my very first commission and I’m so nervous to do a portrait because it’s not my strong suit but I truly believe I can do it! I doubt myself but this video made it seem more do-able and less intimidating, THANK YOU💗

I love your work. I've been in annual exhibition and I've noticed that I win prizes for and sell work that I don't like. I love portraiture and occasionally do something that I like. I think I'm getting better
You are really good. Watching your video helped me correct a habit of blending the areas of the face too much. It all came to me after watching your use of layers and glazing liquid. This video was extremely useful to me. Thank you.
Thanks for the teeth-tip. By the way, don´t forget to paint a selfportrait now and then, you have a real charming face and smile! The outlines? Don´t know about those. Yes, they bind things together but they also make things a bit cartoonish. So how about a selfportrait with no outlines? I for one wouldn´t mind watching that:)
I like your approach for using Acrylics doing portraits, and the outlines you use around the subject. I would enjoy seeing you paint urban style buildings, like graffiti. Most artists on youtube do not have a style that could do that. I know you could though. I do some of that with pencil or ink, but your work would be much more alive with acrylics. thank you for showing us the great art you do!
I've had a few people ask about noses - I'd like to do a tutorial about them, but what is it you have trouble with in particular? This is so I know what issues to address in the vid :)
Fieldey TV: Art & Tutorials oh wow thanks for responding. I have an issue with making not look flat if that makes sense. like how to make it look rounded and 3d instead of two commas and a line. also while still keeping it the same color as the skin. I hope I explained it well
This is awesome, thank you so much for showing us how to do ! I made some progress just watching your work, and I only have a request : in a lot of your paintings, you use some green/blue/orange/red lights on faces and hair. I tried to do the same to have this kind of funky results, but I didn't succeed. Could you please make a tutorial for painting lights and glares ? Thank you :)
Um... I think this took a day and a half? It really depends on how much detail and how 'realistic' I want to make it... in general, maybe 2 - 3 days of painting?
that is beautiful artwork and your color choices really make this nice! quite a while I remember seeing this video and I think watched half or better in search for something more at my level then..but now it's come back around like videos do, and so now I think I want to challenge myself to give it a try!😊
This the only tutorial I could actually understand. I love the outlines you did at the end. Do I have to have the glaze or is there an alternative I could use?
Thanks Amy! I'm so glad it was helpful for you :) You don't have to use a glaze as you could use water instead, but diluting the paint in a lot of water isn't the best for acrylics.
Her 'ugly stage' still looks pretty good, lol
Hahaha! They all look pretty crap until it starts to come together ;)
this is the best tutorial on youtube for constructive advise, after spending months looking, not like most that just want to use tutorials to demonstrait their skill, thank you
Thanks for the baking paper idea.
Zachary Taylor is baking paper just parchment paper??
This is the FIRST acrylic painting tutorial that makes me WANT to use acrylic paint. Thank you!!!
before you add those outline, it looks like those vintage illustration painting. But after you add those outline, it has this pop comic vibes on it
I actually thought the painting looked quite beautiful before the outlines were added. The outlines just ruined it.
@@240clay98 Beauty is in the eye of the beholder as they say! :)
First ever tutorial I’ve watched without fast forwarding or clicking off. Fabulous! Thank you!
Really love the baking paper idea, it works so well! Also using glazing for tinting and shadows is so much easier than trying to apply new layers with acrylics, thank for the tutorial and great tips!
Thank you! Cheers!
I kept trying to find a good portrait tutorial, and I must say, yours is by far the best. Good job (:
I'm such a perfectionist and I hate that good paintings require and "ugly" stage 😂
Hahaha! I know right? So depressing! I like to take a photo at the ugly stage and take another when it's complete so I can remind myself that the ugly stage is never permanent.
I believe it's a ugly stage to those on the sidelines. For me as the artist I know what direction it's going. That's one reason why I don't draw in front of people, that doesn't know the process of creating art.
@@lisethomas2009 excellent reply! you are so spot on about that -I agree with you
I'm the same way 🤣

I kinda agree - I ended up removing some of the outlines at the end
Thank you for sharing your techniques in such an easy to digest format. I learned everything I wanted to know from this tutorial. Looking forward to seeing more from you!
Wow! The skin tone glazing was so subtle and pretty! Not an artist, so never seen that or even knew you could do that. Keep up the good work!
first time i se your work and i love it! i love also how u explaine what u do! i just started to draw and paint so im learning a lot here. 😊 thank you!❤

I'm so glad it helped! I now like to leave some of the brush marks in my portraits to make them more interesting :)
Wonderful! I love it! From Mexico!
Wow, awesome tutorial and portrait. Love it...just learning, what fun.
I learned more from this video then I did these past 4 weeks in my painting course
I love your artwork!
Love your process!!
Thank you so much!

Love the style, preferred it without the outline though. You mastered the skin so well I think the outline deters from that
ok this was amazing
Love it, you are very talented
Just came across your channel. Thank you so much for the tips. I definitely subbed. Look forward to watching more of your videos.
Thanks mate! Good to have you on board!

Hahaha! Thanks! Still pretty ug tho ;)
Great! Hope you do make more like this. Thanks for sharing.
Thanks! What kind of tutorials would you be after? I'm always looking for ideas!

this is so cool. I wish I knew how to do the nose. I can't paint a realistic nose to save my life
I've had a few people ask about noses - I'd like to do a tutorial about them, but what is it you have trouble with in particular? This is so I know what issues to address in the vid :)

Just landed - a new "nose painting" tutorial just for you! ruclips.net/video/LTi6aYbu1Ug/видео.html
Wow Respekt! So beauty. But i like better Without outlines. Very cool done
This is awesome, thank you so much for showing us how to do !

Good idea Julie! I will add it to the list and get one done for you :)

How to paint doges
Brilliant as usual! Btw Émile Bernard liked outlining too ;D
Lol! Thank you! Glad I'm in good company ;)
THANKS YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU ! I HAVE BEEN SEARCHING FOR "THIS" VIDEO.
fieldey how many hours total did you put into that particular painting and how many hours on average do you put into your paintings on a canvas...
Um... I think this took a day and a half? It really depends on how much detail and how 'realistic' I want to make it... in general, maybe 2 - 3 days of painting?
I had a vision from heaven when this video started...
I love this
The surfboard in the background is really scary! xD
Really nice tutorial! More like this.
Amazing artwork. Great job! ;)
Hahaha - that's like one of my all time favourite pieces :)
I too love painting. 🤗
What type of canvas would you recommend? I have a slightly textures/grainy canvas, would that be suitable? This video is really helpful, thanks!
Pheww this helps me a lot, thank you! I just subscribed! Hope you made more of this. I love you already sis.
Thanks for subscribing! X
amazing!
Will you make a video on what colors you mixed to get the skin tones?
Already covered ;) ruclips.net/video/AtrAAsxbIMI/видео.html I used the first "cool pink toned skin" colour combo.
wow..., this is really, really awesome!!!
It's very helpful for me
that is beautiful artwork and your color choices really make this nice!
quite a while I remember seeing this video and I think watched half or better in search for something more at my level then..but now it's come back around like videos do, and so now I think I want to challenge myself to give it a try!😊
For sure! Give it a go - all it takes is practice, practice, practice!
Really beautiful💙 and very helpful
Wonderful
Marvelous. I would like to see you mixing your base skin color. Thanks for posting.
Thank you! Check out the video called How to mix realistic skin colours for more details.
Thanks!! ... your tips are fun and easy to watch, now comes the work. lol
Awesome piece. Thanks for sharing
You're so talented, it is actually amazing what you do!!!!! 😂😂
great video! thanks
You have a beautiful talent!!
I've alarmed all art shops in Croatia to find me golden glazing liquid thanks to you 😂
Good luck! Let me know how you like it when you try it!
Thank you so much for creating this video. It helped so much :)
Glad to hear it!
This the only tutorial I could actually understand. I love the outlines you did at the end. Do I have to have the glaze or is there an alternative I could use?
Thanks Amy! I'm so glad it was helpful for you :) You don't have to use a glaze as you could use water instead, but diluting the paint in a lot of water isn't the best for acrylics.
Amazing
Have you ever used the Golden Open acrylics? They have a reallyong open time so blending is a breeze! They can be thinned with open fluid medium too.
No I haven't - are they good? Do you like them?
amazing
Love it!
I love this! Thank youuuu
acho muito lindo sua pinturas
Wow so nice
Can we use this same photo for practice?
Wonderful tutorial!
