Wow! An actual TEACHER on RUclips? Amazing! So tired of these "Look at me!" speed paint videos disguised as tutorials and how to's. It's nice to see someone who knows what they are doing actually teaching people how to paint.
Wait, others struggle with those vids too?!?! I thought it was me!!! I've been struggling & struggling, watching & painting dozens & dozens of beginner/easy vids from so many RUclips artists who seem so much more interested in selling their merchandise (ie brushes, t shirts) than helping anyone learn. They imply/infer that by buying their exclusive line of ie brushes it'll magically transform you into a painting pro. They may be great brushes but there are no magic shortcuts. After dozens & dozend of painting to these vids with horrible results. I decided, just today, to box-up ALL my paints/supplies because I felt so artistically defeated and empty of any talent. Now that I've seen this video I'm pulling everything back and will begin anew watching closely these exceptional lessons. Thank you!!!
In 1969 I began studying at Massachusetts College of Art. I thought we would get this kind of instruction on materials and tools, but was bitterly disappointed. Instead, the college force-fed their students a diet of abstract expressionism. Thank you for this wonderful training.
William, I got the same diet from UGA back in the mid-60's. It did give me understanding of what the abstract expressionists were doing, but I had to go elsewhere to get the technical information I needed.
@@gypsysnickerdoodle4354 An idiotic comment. Older people has years of experience that you can't get in a hurry or in a single year., This artist can teach you a thing or two, that's for sure.
It's So refreshing and a blessing that u take the time to show technics of painting and of how it's really done without being greedy.. like some painters are... I've been looking for someone like u... U r a blessing and a special person and have a great personality with lots of patients... Have a great night 🌙 please keep showing us more👏..love u💖
I love your quiet and informative way that you teach. Very often, I will watch an episode and file away the key information , and then watch it again as I prepare to paint. Thank you. Cordially, Mary
Not quite true my art teacher hated anime so when I told him I watched anime he yelled at me and I got a detention for liking anime, my parents called school because they were confused so yeah he got fired (they thought the detention was for something else)
Seriously Dianne, it couldn't be more true. And you're one of the most soothing & most likeable people doing this on RUclips.💖@@IntheStudioArtInstruction
Thank you Diane. I’ve watched this video three times just to remind me of the principals that your valued insight could have a huge impact on our paintings. Again I’d like to thank you.
Thank you Diane! Years ago I attended (and graduated from) art college and had few teachers who gave practical materials and tools advice like this. They were more interested in forcing abstract expressionism on us than giving us the skills we paid for. You are a Godsend.
I love your extremely helpful video! I am a self taught artist and I never realized that this brush was so versatile. You have a wonderful, direct and warm way of communicating with your audience. I am looking forward to learning more from other videos of your. I am especially interested in brush techniques and different kinds of brush strokes and ways of holding and handling the brush. Thank you so much!!
Finally a video that makes sence. I learned years ago, and now teach, that we need to understand the tools and materials we use. Not so much the pros & cons, but rather capabilities and limitation then using that info to our advantage to create the desired effects. I tell my students use common sense, follow safety precautions and explore. Experiment and learn what your tools can do for you in this adventure of art.
WhittleDude, I am in total agreement. I always equate painting skills with craftsman's skills: it works best when you know what your tools and materials will do and when you know how to guide their results.
Aww she reminds me pf Bob Ross! How nice! And just what I needed. I just started painting and its really hard to teach yourself when artists dont take the time to explain how they create effects, so thank you so much for this video!!
It's like any other skill. We can learn by trial and error, but it surely does make it easier when someone who knows the skills shows them to you. Enjoy your journey.
Thank you, very well explained, and helpful techniques. I thought perhaps the last part where you showed the imprint the fan brush made when using the whole rounded shape would be good for giving the impression of- tree tops in the distance. 😃
Isn't it amazing, Rhonda, how things we do with a brush can open up possibilities of how we can use those strokes to translate various images. Good observation!
Hi Dianne, I love your helpful tips! I paint with acrylics but still find lots of useful information in your videos. You have a fun sense of humor and a great way of teaching. Thank you for sharing. Julie, 😍
Thanks, Julie. So many of the techniques used in oils can also be used with acrylics and gouache, but the composing principles are universal to all media.
I had never thought of that. And in this day and age I really don't use the telephone book but they still get delivered to us as it's part of our phone service. But I end up throwing it in the recycle bin. So it does get recycled but I always thinks it's a waste. So I think I will use the next one in the manner that you're suggesting. I'm sure it will become very handy.
Great teacher,would love to see some of your art, I love to paint, it’s so relaxing, I just get lost in and worry free for. a shout time. Thanks for sharing. God Bless
Thank you so much. I have never used my fan brush, because I really didn't know how to use it properly. This has opened my eyes to a new possibilities :)
Yes because mostly we don't need to see the lady speaking - it's what she says that matters, and that can be done more as voiceover while giving us close-ups of what's on the canvas. Still, a useful video.
@@IntheStudioArtInstruction I know, I know...I'm sorry...I just found it funny. lol Thank you for your time and effort in making the video though. I appreciate it...Even if I had to squint a lot. :P

Caravaggio wasn't, and Gauguin was a paedophile. Painters are people like everyone else, there are bad people everywhere.
@@shadowsenpai35 Sorry, I have empathy with your teacher.
Art is in my humble opinion at its best when it is not formulaic.
Not all .My former art tutor was so two faced and bad mouthed everyone . Karma ...this lady is lovely and explains so well 🎨🖌️

Thanks your voice is so easy to listen to and your teaching exceptional !

👍
Hi. I’m a beginning painter and just discovered you. I love your lessons. Thank you for sharing your knowledge!!

Very nice, excellent demonstration that covered the bases, thanks Diane!
Glad you enjoyed it!
A fan brush has always been a mystery to me. Thanx so much for enlightening me.
My pleasure, Denise. This is just to get you started exploring the fan brush.
I use a fan brush for cedars and pines. Works great. You're awesome.
It works great for so many things. It's an amazing little tool when used as a tool and not as an excuse.
I'm just curious as to what you mean "as an excuse"?
I also use a flat brush for cedar and pine trees.
Such a cute and nice lady. Her voice is so soft
Thanks.
Love the way you teach. Thank you.
Thanks.

Well spongebob your very lucky . She reminded me of my grandma she used to explain with such kindness and compassion. Oh how i miss her .
Oh is that so..😍 I love her. How old is she?

Love your instructional videos. That said, it would be helpful if the camera were closer.
This was an earlier Quick Tip. You'll notice in the later ones that the camera does zoom in closer.

As usually your tips and this one including are just great thank you dear Dianne
And as always, it's a pleasure. So glad you're enjoying these.
Wonderful presentation. I was overwhelmed by this brush but I think I can try it. I now find myself missing my grandmother.
Try one maneuver at a time and have fun doing so.
you can use an old telephone book to whip you brush between pages.. works, then throw book away after all pages are used.
Eye on art *
Great tip thank you. I often wondered how to clean my Fan brush to separate the bristles now I know.
I had never thought of that. And in this day and age I really don't use the telephone book but they still get delivered to us as it's part of our phone service. But I end up throwing it in the recycle bin. So it does get recycled but I always thinks it's a waste. So I think I will use the next one in the manner that you're suggesting.

how do I keep my fan brush from splitting apart?
Patti Janikowski
Has your last name always spelt that way?
Mine was changed generations ago in CA upon entry.
what brand paint do you use?
Mostly Gamblin and Rembrandt, depending upon the tube colors.
Great tips thanks so much Dianne.
Thank you so much. I have never used my fan brush, because I really didn't know how to use it properly. This has opened my eyes to a new possibilities :)
Play with these and explore more.
A true queen
😊
Would like camera person to zoom in on her details more
Another option would be to watch from a larger screen.
Yes because mostly we don't need to see the lady speaking - it's what she says that matters, and that can be done more as voiceover while giving us close-ups of what's on the canvas. Still, a useful video.

What brand of fan brush is this?
Shan, it's an old fan brush with the brand name completely worn off, but any professional brand of a hog bristle fan brush will do the same job.

No use to struggle. Just play with it to find out what it will do.
Camera needs to focus on the canvas. Otherwise a good lesson.

"There we go" while the video is so zoomed out I can't make out a thing she's actually doing.
Perhaps a larger screen might help.
@@IntheStudioArtInstruction Was on a pretty good sized screen. Plus, a larger screen can't create pixels that aren't there.
Very entitled comment
@@indigoh2824 Not entitled. Just trying to duplicate what was being taught. Hard to do when you can't see enough detail to know what its supposed to look like.
Whenever the fan brush was used, the camera operator zoomed in to show the application, which was the purpose of the video. I thought it was great!
Painted samples were much too small for me. Impossible to evaluate the usefullness of a fan brush.
Surely there is a way!
