  • Hey all! After having pushed saturation yesterday, today we're going old school! A very basic, simple 4 color palette: Titanium White, Yellow Ochre, Cad Red and Ivory Black. Remember, this palette is only limiting if we're unable to see the full potential of the relationships generated by every permutation within the palette. It's important to begin with recognizing the parameters that this particular palette has to offer, and instead of viewing them as restrictions we start to accept them as possibilities.

    Hi !... a suggestion; if you showed the object or foto that you were painting from, then, the viewers would also see the decisions you were making with each stroke... I suggest you show the model that you are painting from...perhaps a cut away smaller rectangle screen

    Loved today's session! The way you explain colour, relationships, values, etcetera is very clear and easy to understand. Your passion about driving certain points home, or emphasizing the importance of certain things make these lessons very valuable. Thank you! I certainly will compare, compare, compare much more than I have been! I look forward to more of these videos.

    You are a wonderful draughtsman and painter -You seem to be able to impart a sense of experience and truth into all your work, and your fluency with the medium is truly lovely to behold -There are many painters on line, that have a Cecil Graves studio kind of finish ,but you are leagues ahead on many levels(I know I don t need to tell you that)Please keep them coming !

    I love your work and the way you explain the process for all of your videos it is so invaluable.. the best advice and technique explanation that I’ve seen in a very long time !...… I was wondering if it’s possible in the future to include the reference photo so I can understand how you make your choices ....the wonderful high resolution photo of your painting is great,.... but I would really like to see the reference photo so I can understand how to translate that into painting for myself without copying you ?.... once again thank you so much for your lessons🙏

    Your painting and spoken dialogue are mesmerising. You are one of the most talented painters I have ever seen. Your work should be in all major museums - or would be if I had any influence.
    Galleries etc in the uk seem to have an aversion to great modern figurative painting like this. I assume that curators don't like the idea of it. They just seem to want to constantly educate the public in Neo-Dada/irony/social comment etc. It's ok in small doses, but that's more or less all we get.

    Hola Nicolás ! Muchísimas gracias por tu trabajo. Eres genial. Podrías hacernos un barrido por tu lugar de trabajo en estos vídeos? Tenemos curiosidad por ver si pintas sobre una tabla que apoyas en tus piernas, dónde tienes la paleta, en dónde miras tus imágenes... si te haces daño en la espalda al pintar en esa postura tanto rato... cundo comentamos tus vídeos nos hacemos estas preguntas. De nuevo enhorabuena y mil gracias. Te vemos cada día desde Bellas Artes de MURCIA, Esapaña.

    Revelatory. I *do* paint every day but when you paint without guidance you entrench bad habits. Watching you day after day and understanding your thinking has broken my impasses. I had some nagging questions and of course out there there are various and contradictory answers and some answers are right and some are wrong. Your answers work for me. For instance, open or closed palette? I tried closed this year and it didn't get me there. Open palette, mixing with the brush, is how I learned and what you do and re-trying the way you mix, the "big puddle" approach where you take a basic tone and tweak it off to the side, gives me the value and temperature control I can't get otherwise. Zorn palette? I've tried it and couldn't get blue enough; what you taught me today was if I needed to go bluer I should have started with the bluest blue (black + white) and adjusted from there, meaning the rest should have gone warmer. After watching you work with Zorn, I will give it a try again. Blurring? Everyone tells me to blur, while I was taught lay down a brush stroke and leave it. I usually don't like the look of a brush blur. You're showing you don't need to blur, you just need to control your values. So one more question. You mention how titanium white can go chalky. I used to handle that by mixing with opaques, never transparents, so I could minimize the use of white, but that made my palette huge, having warms and cools of each hue in both opaques and transparents. How do you avoid chalkiness?

    • @mc_va
      @mc_va 3 года назад

      Maybe you could try using zinc white instead, it has less tinting strength and I see it as a "soft" white

    • @shelahhorvitz3838
      @shelahhorvitz3838 3 года назад

      @@mc_va No, I've come very far since a year ago when I posted this. Zinc white cracks so most manufacturers have stopped putting it in their paints. Flake/Cremnitz will give that same translucency, although of course it's extremely poisonous, but so are the cadmiums, the cobalts, etc. The thing about opaques is that they go heavy. You get no optical reverberation between layers. Will St. John put it beautifully: "Flake is to titanium as marble is to plaster." When you have something dark you have to cover, yeah you have to pull in the opaques. But layers of translucency or transparency will create a richer piece. If you have to paint nonpoisonous, though, you have to use titanium. The way to handle the chalkiness of titanium is to glaze over when it's dry with a transparent or translucent. It can be difficult to control the value of a glaze but you can either build it up in layers or lay it down and wipe it off or blend it out, leaving a stain or a couche into which you can paint a subsequent layer. There are also some modern synthetic pigments with so much tinting strength that you can mix them with titanium and they won't go chalky; Tim Rees talks about some of Michael Harding's red and yellow lakes that have this property. Traditionally lakes were fugitive but these apparently are not.

    It’s really interesting (and almost liberating?) hearing you talk about blacks and whites as “colors”. I do often look at those two paints as ‘other’. I think it’s a teaching remnant from art school and a fear of of being told that you’re using too much white. Somehow just hearing it said out loud has changed my perspective. Thank you!

    Just fantastic to see this process and hear your thoughts at the same time. Feeling guilty because I ought to be paying for this! It's better than some of the things I have handed over cash for after all. Want to save up and buy a painting. At least that would be some small return for your generosity in producing/sharing this content.
