    I do hope you enjoy this comparison tutorial on "To Underpaint or Not to underpaint THAT IS THE QUESTION? I would love to know which one you prefer, is this something you would like to have a go at yourself? Let me know :-). Also Guys I forgot to mention I use Zest-It Products because they are NON-TOXIC AND NON-FLAMMABLE - they also have no nasty smells!

    I have never been to art school and all of my endeavors have been based on the tutorials available on RUclips. This video has explained succinctly the importance of doing an underpainting. I have done watercolor, oil pastel and acrylic. Now I am venturing into oil paints and this has to be one of the most useful videos in terms of technical content for a beginner like me. Thank you so much.

    Your under painting version is much more beautiful but I also feel that you favored it throughout the process. There are artist like David Leffel, Jeff Legg, Sherry McGraw and so many others that paint in a beautiful way and achieve spectacular results without going through the under painting process. That is one of the wonderful things about art, painting, we all do it our own way and hopefully find a way to achieve our goal and vision.

      Tim,
      You talk about "going through the underpainting process" as if it were onerous. It is easier, largely separating considerations of value and colour and the results can be truly beautiful. It also saves on expensive pigments and achieves a beautiful deep glowing colour.
      I am about to tackle to tackle my version of Klimt's Woman in Gold with acrylic underpainting, size 24x36 inches, substituting my wife's face (because she asked me) in indirect method with oil glazes.
      The relief swirls will be done in acrylic from a syringe and needle of the type used to refill ink cartridges before overpainting with metallic gold. Have done that before - it works. The same method can be used for jewels and jewellery.
      Have yet to decide upon acrylic/oil for the rest of the painting. Acrylic might be easier but oils would give a better painting.

    I know some artists don’t like doing an underpainting because they feel the colours are more vibrant when painted straight on a white canvas and you can see that’s true here. I think underpaintings lend well for some paintings and not so much for others. It all depends on what you’re painting! I do them sometimes and not at other times 😌 great video!

    • @MazArtStudio
      @MazArtStudio  3 года назад +14

      Absolutely. It’s great to see this comparison so people can decide. I like to mix things up so do different techniques BUT I do always come back to underpainting for pets/portrait & still life I just love the look. Thanks for commenting and glad you enjoyed it.

      Some artists use both methods in their painting but I do think you get more texture and transparency in paintings with an under painting.

    Both versions are splendid! The visible difference is in the mood that underpainting makes. If trying to imitate the old master's style, the underpainting seems more appropriate. If we want a more modern or faster approach, the bright clear colors ( colours) of the direct method is beautiful too.

    Tonal values are so important that they can make or break a painting. I love your underpainting techniques and tools, to establish tonal values. I like both images, and would like to try both in a landscape, where I will try the underpainting areas in the foreground sections for "body", and no underpainting in the far background aspects, where tonal values are much less apparent/evident, (more flat, lighter and less detailed) to enhance a sense of depth/distance.
    Thanks so much, I loved this. The oiling out with glazing is awesome to know about.

    What a great way to show and teach the underpainting method. You convinced me that this is how artists I know get the classical look of the masters. I know it is never too late to learn. I am still working on watercolor painting and enjoy that medium, but this has convinced me to watch you, learn and hopefully will get the courage to expirence oil painting with underpainting.

      I like watercolor underpinning, than acrylic and finally water mixable oil. I get all the strength of these mediums.
      Canvas must be prepped w home-made watercolor ground. Watercolor layer, fix it. Than mid range colors w acrylic first lean w watermixable oil medium and water mix1 to 10.1 part medium, 10 part water.Golden acrylic play beautifully with this mix. Dries within hours to a day.
      And finally, the wamo oil paint. Some parts just medium over the watercolor or acrylic layers.
      The final result is a truly deep 3D painting.
      I know this is lots of work, but the result is well worth it.

One seemed the underpaid Ted one seemed heavier than the other, and of course more structured. I had never come across so clear a teaching of underpainting. I like the way you paint and teach.

    I am amazed by the difference the underpainting makes. I also love that you use such thin layers - a very appealing approach for me.

In fact, yesterday I made my first oil painting - very rudimentary - so I can't wait to find an approach that works for me.

    To be fair to the poor no underpaint pair, if you were painting it in one go (alla prima?) you would mix the colour differently to have more like tonal value. But I’ve always loved doing washed with acrylic but have never figured out how to do it with oil so thanks! The underpainted pair really does have a nice translucent quality in the skin that just I don’t know could be achieved with straight up colour matching

    • @MazArtStudio

      @@MazArtStudio I finally got around to trying the technique 🤸‍♀️
      Did I listen to that part about using fixative on my pain stakingly enlarged pencil drawing (I used a grid and spent a whole evening on it) …. Nope I figured I’d still be able to faintly make it out underneath. I cannot believe that it COMPLETELY Dissolved my pencil 😂 so like turns out there was an ala prima element to the painting anyway because I didn’t have the patience to start over. It’s just my technique test painting not my one portrait that I want to get done so I can enter it into a competition so it’s ok :) I’m hoping I didn’t abuse my treated paper canvas too much by erasing and going over certain spots too often - think I might have but that’s another reason I’m glad this is a test piece. I swear if the oil gets through and eats the paper I might call it quits and just use acrylic - at least for the tonal layer anyway

    I recently started doing under paintings and I prefer it. I can focus on value first and then later on color. Much easier. Thank you.

    I love both paintings. I suppose by seeing them in isolation, one would never be able to say which is better. Even when comparing them it will take a while to actually decide which is better.
    Thank you for sharing ❤

      You are welcome. There’s no right or wrong you are correct it’s all personal interpretation. I do think underpainting in general helps beginners and breaks the process down

    Great demo. Useful to see how much paint to mix and apply, color string mixing, underpainting comparison....and I'm only halfway through so far.

    Thank you so much. Underpainting definitely has more depth and this is so useful to me as a beginner of about 18 months. Thank you so much for showing what colours you use as some online tutorials do not give exact colours and talk only about lights and darks. I will be watch8ing all your tutorials👏👏

    @jenniferbeebe7592 3 года назад +2

    Wonderful tutorial! I can see benefits to both sides. The shape and structure is so much better with the under painting but the colors seem to pop more without. I guess it depends on what you are painting. Thank you for your help!

    • @MazArtStudio
      @MazArtStudio  3 года назад

      Yes it’s a personal preference definitely!
