Incredible, the difference between an amateur and a professional painter is that an amateur would have been happy with the result half way through and stopped. Great job.
Thank you for sharing your knowledge that is helping me start painting again after many years as you show me new ways of doing things that I didn't know...appreciate your tutorials very much...your paintings are very beautiful and compelling to me. All the best to you.
This is my lucky day! I finally found your channel. I have watched so many other videos from artist teaching Fur. You addresses my problem which is acrylics drying too fast. Then I'm left with Hard looking surfaces. I may even try the oils you mentioned. Thank you so much. Happy Valentines Day💕
Thank you so much! I’m painting a Moose and needed help with the colors and fur, I couldn’t believe it when you said this could be used for Elk or Moose 🥰

Great video :) Water mixable oils are the same principle as alkyds, just normal oils with an additive in and you can buy the additive to make any normal oil water mixable. I haven't used my WMO's yet but had to choose those due to being mostly bedbound as it is much easier cleanup. I think Imam going to try this wet in wet technique as one of my first tests. Looks effective.
-sigh- I could've used this awesome demo before I got mad at oils and went back to acrylics. I've been waiting for a longer demo like this and can't believe you've put seven layers wet on wet...I put three and got mud.😞. love the fact that a limited palette is used. great info again Jason. Oh, and it makes me feel more human knowing you had to get out of regimenting too, that's a nasty habit to break...currently that habit is winning the war with me.😆. Looking forward to your next post.
Just started painting my first animal and ran into that very issue you mentioned. Stayed away from the dark darks because I thought it would make it look too flat, but boy was I wrong. Thank you :)
wow thats awesome. I'm going to try this. I suspect blurring the fur at the end might help with short haired animals...maybe not idk anything lol yet! but this looks so simple.
Hmmm 🤔 so It goes dark, mid tone, than high lights! That sound about right? Some overlapping stokes, and less pressure on brush for highlights 🤔 seems like that could work.
Hi Jason thank you for this video I really get it , I'm about to start a portrait of my border collie sunny who we lost 6 weeks ago 💔. He's was a black and white / silver , would I use black as my base colour and what colour mix would I use to build up the layers? ,, thank you for your time 😊
I watched one of your videos and you mentioned a type of oil you use with the pan pastels to thin it out for fine lines, I missed what type of oil you use. Would you be kind enough to let me know?
Jason this was amazingly helpful. would this technique be something that you use for an animal that has hard bristly hair such as a whitetail deer, or big horn sheep that has short stiff hair?

Great Tips Thanks! :)
Nice
are you using odorless paint thinner or linseed oil or did you mix the two
wow thats awesome. I'm going to try this. I suspect blurring the fur at the end might help with short haired animals...maybe not idk anything lol yet! but this looks so simple.
thanks learned alot
Hmmm 🤔 so It goes dark, mid tone, than high lights! That sound about right? Some overlapping stokes, and less pressure on brush for highlights 🤔 seems like that could work.
Great info. Thank you JAson. I see you're also using Rosemary and co brushes.
+Andre van Wyk yes, great quality and price too :)

Hi Jason thank you for this video I really get it , I'm about to start a portrait of my border collie sunny who we lost 6 weeks ago 💔. He's was a black and white / silver , would I use black as my base colour and what colour mix would I use to build up the layers? ,, thank you for your time 😊
hi Jason. Great demo. Can I use your technichs with acrylic paints? Tony.
Probably you'd just need to do it faster.
Sometimes i like to come back to paintings so i don;t use Acrylics.
very informative
I watched one of your videos and you mentioned a type of oil you use with the pan pastels to thin it out for fine lines, I missed what type of oil you use. Would you be kind enough to let me know?
can i apply this on acrylic paint?
Jason this was amazingly helpful. would this technique be something that you use for an animal that has hard bristly hair such as a whitetail deer, or big horn sheep that has short stiff hair?
+cmelik10 yes different length of brush stroke for different effects
very helpful. thank you so much!
thank you, where can I buy those oils. I live in WV.
Hi Jason I want to paint a black cat what colours would I use
please, do one on short fur and how to tell fur direction.
Which company to use acrylic colour
Great demo! Just a quick question, would I still be able to use the same techniques for painting human hair?
+vano83 yes certainly :)
+Jason Morgan - Wildlife Art (wildlife art) thank you :-)
Super bravo dommage que ce ne sois pas en francais
what kind of paint you using to paint the fur.
+Carol Slaton thgis is winsor and newton alkyd oils, works identicale with standard oils too.
You look like the guy from Action Lab. Nice tip btw.
Hi Jason, a quick question .. can I use a retarder for acrylics to get this blending effect ??
Best regards
Painting fur in oil
abc d Sort of. You have to keep the acrylics damp, regardless of whether or not you use a retarder. 😊
Super
Super
