I have watched thousands of how to paint videos and this is one of the best. I see you do one about every 8 years. I hope I live long enough to see the next
Ha-ha. I'll be doing more videos soon, so don't give up on me yet.
What would you like to see me paint? I do portraits, landscapes, still life, horses, lots of things. Mostly I love painting people. Perhaps I'll do some head painting demonstrations.
@@jeffmerrill2456 that would be great! I'm subscribing hoping to see a portrait tutorial soon!
@@jeffmerrill2456 portrait for beginners plzzzzzz🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽
I just saw your video for the first time and loved it. I would love more instruction on still life, highlights and making things look 3D. Looking forward to learning from you
Incredible! this really makes sense! Thanks for posting this.
This looks like magic. You're showing us how, but it's still unbelievable. I love how freely you rough it out, knowing that you will be able to refine and polish it later on. Such confidence. You have inspired us. Merci beaucoup!
Just truly a very helpful tutorial, no timelapse, no music, no nonsense. thank you. The tips about blending the paint was very helpful. It was interesting to see the choice of brush used in this. I would have been concerned how streaky the brush is, but this proves it wrong.
So true
One last thing.. i can tell you are genuine in the way you teach and explain. Dont lose that! Keep these qualities as you become more popular.
Thanks for the great demo👍
Such a joyous video!! Your painting is methodical and joyful. The sphere in your video is bright set off by the elegant pale green background. 💕
So nice, thanks
Wonderful tutorial, thank you. Hope to see more. Cheers!
Wonderful...thanks for taking us through in mostly real time...so helpful!
Excellent demonstration! Thank you for sharing!!
Very important advice/tip, 'step away' to prevent the stupor of mindlessly pushing paint around.
Gorgeous sphere!!!! That’s impressive
This is such a great tutorial, thank you
Fantastic....loved the process, very helpful
You need to start uploading some videos. There are people out there wanting to develop their skills. The simplicity, quality and directness of this video was very very good. Conjure up the motivation, and start uploading! ✨👌
Very Nice tutorial
Would like to see you painting other materials in sphere form: color crystal spheres, brass/iron/copper/silver/chrome spheres, gummy like subtances spheres which pass a certain amount of light through their bodies with the addition of textures and even multiple light sources
👍
You are so good
Great painting technique, what is your painting surface? Canvas or board?
Both! I like several different surfaces. This is just 1/4” plywood with several thin Coates of Liquitex Professional Gesso. It comes in a white bottle and is fluid. I apply at least three layers and sand (220) between each layer. The goal is to seal the board and get a really smooth surface. I also really like oil primed linen (fine, portrait).
Excellent tutorial video! It would help if showed an image of what you were painting from your view so we get a sense for how you interpret shapes, values etc. Thank you so much!
Hi Ryan, yes I would normally show the reference image. However, this is a painting done from imagination based on principles of light and shadow, warm and cool colors, and edges. It’s something you can do to practice or test your knowledge on how well you understand form and these other principles.

always start horrible then work onto the world greatest piece
How did you get the shadow value of red? Did you add it’s complement?
No, but you could add a dark green and that could work. It would just look different. I wanted the shadow side to still feel red so i used a darker/cooler red (alizarin permanent).The light side of the sphere is a cadmium red light or something. It's higher in chroma and more opaque. I was taught to paint the shadows transparently, with transparent colors like transparent oxide red, or alizarin crimson, or most of the really dark looking colors straight out of the tube. Most paint manufacturers indicate on the tubes if the colors are transparent, opaque or semi-opaque.
So, the shadow side is made from alizarin permanent with probably some ultramarine blue and perhaps a touch of transparent oxide red (all three are transparent in nature).
The trans. oxide red, is a transparent version of burnt sienna and is very orange in nature. So, adding blue to the TOR will create a muted color since orange and blue are complements. I added the ultramarine to make the alizarin perm lean more towards purple.

at 0:59 when you add in "thicker paint" is that a new value that you mixed off camera to create a "halftone" transition? or is that the same value used as the local color?
The "thicker paint" is more in terms of quantity, loading up the brush with more dry paint. It came from the color mixtures I already had on my palette, just a little bit dryer and more impasto to load the brush.
I start out most of my paintings with thin almost washy layers, a little bit like watercolor. I just need to establish the large value shapes, cover the canvas and get a sense of the basic color progression first. Then as that thin layer starts to dry I need to add thicker paint that can spread around on the canvas, like putting frosting on a cupcake.
@@jeffmerrill2456 Thank you Jeff! I enjoy watching you paint art.
Do you blend with a dry brush or wet brush? I don’t understand how people get smooth blending
The thing that matters most about blending smooth transitions is using a softer bristle brush. The brush starts out dry but once you start blending it picks up wet paint and it wet from there on out.

What’s the brush like
What do you mean exactly? I use several different brushes. The pink handle wide brush is no longer available. I think the others are Rosemary & Co. Synthetic Mongoose.
did you use a projector?
No. Not sure what you mean by a projector. I just drew all of this out of my head based on principles of light and shadow.
@@jeffmerrill2456 so good
Oil or acrylic???
Oil
Sir can you please mention all name colors you used...?
My color palette is pretty standard-a warm and cool version of each color. I use yellow ochre or raw sienna for my earth yellow, Cad lemon Yellow for my chromatic (COOL) yellow. I use a cadmium yellow deep for my orange, Cad. Red light for my chromatic (WARM) red, Permanent Alizarin for my (COOL) red, ultramarine blue, cerulean blue and viridian green. I sometimes use kings blue and a turquoise blue. Depending on what I'm painting. You don't need to use my specific colors. You could have easily had a cad red medium (Warm) and a quinacridone rose color for your cooler red. You want "source colors" to start with, that have enough dynamic range so to speak-intensity or chroma-so they can be useful in mixing other colors. Like I said it doesn't matter if you have my exact colors, you just need a warm and cool version of each hue.
@@jeffmerrill2456 thank you sir, it does really help me
Why didn't you show how to mix color before painting in this picture?
He didn't tell us if it was acrylic or oil colours.
It’s oil. You can’t paint that way with acrylic unless you add an “extender” to the paint because it dries so quickly.
@@jeffmerrill2456 many thanks Jeff
