Excellent Video Scott! I love that first example with the band of flesh and how without any drawing it just turned beautifully with a very limited palette. That is not easy to do.
Thank you for this incredibly generous wealth of Hue, Value, and Chroma knowledge in this video! Finding that balance of the three is the challenge; however your technique shows that it can be done consistently. I have been using Utrecht's Davey's Gray, in place of raw umber and it seems to be a more subtle addition than raw umber (semi-opaque).
Shows how hard it is for realist artists, (actual technicians and purveyors of beauty), when an exceptional artist like Scott Waddell is not a household name and rich beyond measure.
Love your work. Wondering about the negative information I’ve seen/heard about Umbers (cracking, etc.) …and your opinion. Do you use a certain brand? Thanks for sharing 👍🏻
Scott I would say that your technique is truly amazing. The problem I have is that it looks like every one of your figures is lit by the same kind of light… and the light seems the same distance away from your models. To me, that’s the most unrealistic part of your very naturalistic looking paintings. A lot of your work reminds me of Bouguereau’s. If that’s what you’re going for, then cool. You’ve got that nailed for sure. Let it be more for a more narrative effect where we can see everything that’s in the scene. Again, you nailed it. Just that one thing though… need more variety of lighting situations. Your compositions will expand for sure.
I know that my question is a little bit off topic, but it's kinda important to me, so here we go. Coming from traditional media like oils, gouache and water colors, I switched to digital painting recently because I have no decency room to establish an atelier at the moment. So, my question would be, given the right tools, is it possible to recreate your way of painting digitally. I use Krita, a free and open source software which comes with a broad variation of brushes, including some who emulate wet paint on canvas. I really admire the realistic portraits and your flesh tones are unbelievably well done.
@stephentravis2250 I think that's not entirely true. The pigments/colors are pretty much the same. The difficult part is mixing the colors, because there is no mixing pallet in digital painting. That's why I'm interested in his particular style. It's the blending part of the process I think does the work here.
Hi Scott we met at the atelier in Edinburgh, another great tutorial thanks. However, please remove the leaf hanging off the plant near your ear on the next one, it was all I could see! 😆
You do beautiful work! The old masters had natural, gas, or candle light to paint. Before electric. That has to throw a whole different approach to portraits I'd guess. Color of flame, one light source. I've seen classes on y.t. but none with non electric light source. I'm guessing the painter would have their own candle, with the light blocked from the sitter? Pretty sure that in it self would alter your colors. They say carrivagio painted by candle light. His colors seem like that to me..orangish. might be a fun thing to try, just to see the differences.
I want to buy 1-2 courses from you, but I need to understand what kind of painting primer to use, and I am very interested in a higher level portrait. Please recommend which of your courses should I buy?

Thanks for sharing techniques for different skin tones and textures. Your instructions help me see color more clearly.
Thanks I have watched a few portrait colour demos this week and yours was the most convincing and helpful.
Great video, thanks for taking your time to make this for us.

Digital is nothing compared to using real paint or pigments.

Fantástico saludes desde Colombia

This technique is like marble painting...soft ( blury) and hard like stone at the same time.
❤❤❤❤❤
2:33 Yep. It can be a 💩 of a vocation.
Alguém pode dizer as cores por favor, não tem legenda o vídeo. Obrigado.
Fuck yes!! Awesome Scott!!
Subtitles please
yeah, like Mount Olympus, LOL
Christ. Haven't you done this before? Scott. No more of your colour.
You good?
You need a blue colour on your palet.🫠
He uses Gamblin IB which is synthetic, not charred cow bones. Gamblin skews blue
don’t be silly
