Cesar, RUclips recommended your channel to me. I'm glad. You do an excellent job explaining everything and your artwork is astounding! Thank you for sharing your knowledge. 🙂
Es un verdadero placer ver esa reelaboración y su análisis Siempre ha sido un placer ver su obra desde su sincretismo, los Bouguereau y esta obra realizada según las enseñanzas de Cennino Cennini .
Appreciated the fuller explanation and visual of verdaccio. Some of these works have lost the color balance thru the centuries making it challenging to reproduce chroma
Thanks for the video! With your sketchbook I wasn't expecting you to bring up something I would like! You chose a subject I liked, just for the art. A nice practical approach! Nice to know you!
Was watching a video the youtuber jazza made (he was making his own oil paints)and he watched a turtorial you made and know im in love with your chanel
Cesar, I have tried you technique of doing master copies from the museum and may I ask you a few questions that have come up when i try? One question i have is do you consider if the color on the painting in the museum has faded and do you compensate for this or do you match the color exactly as you see, even if it may be discolored or faded by time? My second question is what role if any does photography play in this process? Do you take reference photos for use back at the studio and if so how do you use that to inform your copy? Thank you for sharing this process. Copying from painters I like has been one of the most rewarding things I've done and I hope to continue to learn and build my skill.. thank you for sharing your knowledge with us.
I love the colors on the actual paintings now. They look pretty well conserved. I rather have those harmonies than anything I see done now with fresh pigments. Lol I do take photos but write lots of notes about the difference between the photo and the real. In the studio I try not to look at photos to not forget the visual effect I felt from life. But I do use it for proportions.
You say you have to offset the verdaccio by layering different value ranges of terra Rosa over top. Does just a terra Rosa glaze over the green naturally result in a skin like color or are you also adding some yellows into the terra Rosa glazes?
Great study Cesar. Let me know if you ever want to hit the art museums, art exhibits, etc. I'm in Ft Lauderdale only 45 min away. I would love to do an interview on your process and/or background, but open to just hanging out or meeting local artists in Miami as well.
Hi can I ask you how do you stick the gold leaf on paper? Do you use a special glue like Cennino describes? 🙏 thank you for sharing your amazing skills
Estimado Cesar Santos, eres una de los mejores artistas que conozco, tu obra es extraordinaria. Lamento que renuncies a tu lengua madre y ni tan siquiera subtitules tus vídeos en español. 😢
Está claro que Cesar santos es un gran artista y multidisciplinario, habla dos idiomas pues lo ha dejado siempre claro, en lo personal no veo inconveniente alguno en que sus videos sean en inglés, primeramente porque el público mayoritario (aquellos que visualizan sus videos) de César es el de habla inglesa, su enseñanza fue en Estados Unidos y durante su preparación en Europa también se comunicaba en Inglés, César en varias ocasiones ha mencionado que está orgulloso de sus raíces y uno puede darse cuenta de esto desde que se le escucha hablar y mantiene con seguridad su acento. Muchos no lo conocen, pero Cesar tiene un canal en español y podrás darte cuenta del distinto alcance que tiene en comparación de su canal principal, adjunto enlace al canal en español ruclips.net/channel/UCPJqcNMtgXLIGcuI1dIxN5Q Recientemente hizo una entrevista completamente en español para la academia de artes de Madrid, puedes encontrar el video en youtube. Saludos cordiales, pienso que Cesar está orgulloso y feliz de sus raíces por todo lo que ha logrado en su formación y proyecto de vida, este canal se formó en inglés justo por el interés de las personas y su trabajo conocido en el extranjero. Buen día 👋🏽
@@JesusMartinez-oy4io Si he puesto lo de su lengua materna es porque conozco muy bien su vida. Lo sigo desde hace años y en varias ocasiones comenté que podía subtitularlos en español, ya que somos más de 600 millones de hispanohablantes en el mundo y podría ser interesante para él, jamás me comentó nada y dejé de hacerle comentarios. Solo hoy lo he vuelto a poner lo de los subtítulos, pero se lo pongo a todos los que sigo. Muchas gracias por contestarme usted, veré el enlace y buscaré el segundo canal de Cesar, porque seguro es tan bueno como este. Reciba un afectuoso saludo desde ESPAÑA 🇪🇸.
@@JesusMartinez-oy4io Don Jesús, a cuatro vídeos que no ha tocado en dos años y que todos los vídeos no suman 20 minutos, es muy generoso por su parte llamarlo canal. De todas formas muchas gracias, ya lo había visto, pensaba que era otro nuevo que desconocía. Un saludo.
Cesar me encanta este video, sobre todo porque yo también pongo oro en mis cuadros....por cierto donde has encontrado ese libro de Cellini? No consigo encontrarllo por ningún lado.
@@santocesart muchas gracias, miraré lo del libro. Soy restauradora desde hace muchos años, pero ahora me dedico más a mi verdadera pasión....pintar. Te felicito por tu canal y tu trabajo. Me encanta!!!!🙏
Magnificent ! Also forgive me, but I really need to know what sketchbook are you using. I find it so interesting that it’s able to take so much painting!
Just came back from Amsterdam and absolutely loved observing the dutch masters... cant wait to do some master studies soon. i wanted to ask. did you make that book yourself? and did you seal the paper with some sort of gesso before hand? thank you. great work.
Great work Cesar with your oil paints, but you know that the original technique was the egg tempera, which is hard as hell to replicate and match the colors since they turn lighter when they dry. Since you got pigments, you could try to work in that technique, it's tedious but funny. Regards!
Say it louder. I am so tired of seeing people do "master copies" without following the master's technique and method. Like, I've seriously seen people copy Sargent portraits starting from the details and working with small brushes, funny enough they even detail what in the original is thick impasto with very thin paint
@@saint_gales I paint in egg tempera and in my opinion he did a good job in emulating the medium. He kept the brush strokes small, one at a time, like in tempera. I think he wanted to render the atmospheric feel of tempera and he did that quite well.
@@saint_gales well, I would say that he did a "studio" of Fra Angelico work rather than a "master copy". He tried to emulate the atmosphere and colors, but without the egg tempera technique, it is imposible to achieve the texture and patterns of that technique. I wouldn't blame him, he is just trying to develope his skills in oil technique rather than doing an exact copy. Regards
@@saint_gales Yea, I notice many painters who have been trained in the modern academic style, tend to use tiny brushes to fill large areas of a canvas. I don't get why they do it but they do get good results. I prefer using larger brushes and I strongly suspect painters like Sargent and Bouguereau both used the typical sizes and kinds of bristle brushes still sold in stores today: filberts, flats, round, etc. At least that's what it looks like when you consult old photos of them at work.
@@bodeaalex1142 oh no, absolutely he did an incredible job with the different medium, it's just that the comment made me think of all those instagram artists that essentially just do the work for likes and attention.
Superb!! Good to see you again.
Brilliant
“I have a dialogue with history and I like that.” Precious viewpoint and priceless privilege! Thank you.
Master is copying the master... charming portrait...Wow !
I love Fra Angelico!
Just Amazing how you are learning from those masters and we're learning from you !!! Thanks so much for sharing this with us Maestro!!!
I am so jealous LOL. It must be amazing to live so close to so much amazing classic artwork.
A dialogue with history - absolutely.
so beautiful....
Love it
Give us a studio tour pleeease, give us some hints on studio light , wall colors and things that are essential for you as an artist in the studio

Fantastic video! I started doing museum master copies too. Influenced by your videos. I have definitely seen a level up in the quality of my painting.

Me encantan tus pinturas Cesar. Gracias por compartir ❤

It's an old sketchbook, from the previous century.
@@santocesart omg! so basically that's a nice way of saying I can't find it anywhere unless I get a time machine 😂

Are you trying to replicate the colors exactly or are you moving on a little more freely?
each painting is a university!
Bro.if I want a life size skull, where can I get it? I bought it online but it is small in size and I can't get it in life size.😔
You didn't prepare paper?
After the drawing I sprayed fixative.
@@santocesart thank you ❤️
Do you think the original artist painted the skin green or did the paint turn that color over time?
An excellent demo. I do think however, that some 15th century music would have made the video a bit more inspiring.
I purchased a lesson on your website but cannot log into the site. There is no place to contact for assistance. Can you help?
Yes, I can get that fixed. You should have an email with the info. Thanks
First ? Yay!
You should use a old paper..real natural pigments..and make ’new old stock’ from Da Vinci.

To me the original may be slightly out of proportion... Hard to say as there are definitely people with very long noses.
