    I love this portrait... I've been trying to steer myself into a style that I could call my own, but I'm not above stealing. KIDDING! I have been reading about abstract realism and I find that I'm drawn to that genre, but I still have to develop my own style. I love your paintings, thanks for the inspiration.

    It was absolutely fascinating watching her face develop! Probably because of the way you layer it felt like I was seeing her come to life before you made it obvious…. Lol! I swear I’m sober 😉
    This painting is Stunning & loving the bird ! Who cares what kind, it’s beautiful!!!!😍

    Really love the cloudy/atmospheric background style. Also what a task to adjust the eye like that, great work. That’s demonstrative of the dedication and patience required for true craftsmanship of any form of art

    There is always so much to learn from your videos. I watch them several times and take notes. I love how you go from a blank canvas to a masterpiece layer by layer. This was a beautiful painting. Would love to see more paintings like this but with collage. Those are my very favorites, when you do collage, texture, mixed media abstract realism portraits. I LOVE them ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

    This was helpful. That has been my concern. I'd like to use just acrylics, rather than doing a final layer of oil. At least for some pieces. But I was concerned about losing that sense of depth from the oils.

    Nice! I like the abstract/realism combo. I wish you would have shown adjusting the eye so that it was level with the other eye. I have a tendency to discover 'wonkiness' far into the painting and have to fumble around with adjustments 😑

  • @maramakesjournals2319
    @maramakesjournals2319 Год назад

    So very interesting to watch the art. The real time helps me see you creating shapes. Faster speeds make it look impossible. I drew my teenage face with pencil using a mirror for reference. ‘Twas then I noticed my eyes were not symmetrical. I read that stars generally have very symmetrical faces. That pleases the rest of us. Though you probably wouldn’t notice ears are often not symmetrical. You learn that from the technician who fits your glasses to your face. I find this very funny.
