The fact that I see another artist struggling with the same problems as I do gives me courage to go on. Thank you for having the courage to share the process with all its imperfections.
YO i never clocked that im not ever looking at people in public in crazy detail but at their face shape and shadows and stuff, thats gonna help me so much omg
Honestly, for RUclips videos I enjoy things like these. Other artists speaking of their artworks, whether is a challenge, a problem on the road or simply the thing behind the artwork like the meanig. Keep it up!
I have 0 complaints about your content or format and tbh I like the mic as is. I NEED the making a frame/stretching canvas vid desperately so your next ideas sound dope
Just go for it that’s what I did. At the beginning I would base out my painting shapes with acrylic and then do oil on top. Now I just do oil sometimes I’ll do acrylic first when I paint sky’s because I do drips and other things I want to dry fast .
I loved this video & will definitely try to adopt your instruction re NOT overinvesting in a painting early in the process and working in general shapes in layers.
i love these videos so much. im a painting student and getting to look at your process is genuinely invaluable. you make art so much more achievable and familiar.
Thank you for sharing your knowledge. Can you explain creating value using the inherent nature of colours? Also how to know what the colour of the shadow is going to be used and really clarify the warm and cool shadow theory. Thank you
13:25 Half a year ago I was drawing with oil pastels - there was a composition in which there were faces, not very large. I finished the portrait by painting the eyes and their details - so, in order to put just two dark dots with crayons, which would be the pupils - it took a whole day, more than 8 hours) You learn, through such difficult and not obviously difficult things
Loved this one ! Definitely one of my favourite videos of yours. It's great to see a painting process video, including the blocking out the shapes digitally, the sped up painting, the starting over... Would love more vids like this !
Looove this- I’ve recently started really embracing this- if it doesn’t work start again- practice and I’m SO much happier taking everything as an opportunity to learn and work out things then fighting with it forever. Thanks for sharing! ❤
Thank you so much for making this video. The information you provided us viewers with is invaluable and I like the way you record your videos. I don’t think it needs to be changed. I think you put as much effort into to them as your painting. I’m so ready for the upcoming videos and I think your decision to make those videos are much needed. Please continue to do what you do.
Great insight into your painting style. Not many people can capture the feelings you get during the middle stages and last minute decisions in a painting like you can. It's kind of comforting in a way. If you're feel the same way i'm feeling in the middle of a painting then something must be going right --in a way. Thanks
Great advice, stay loose and unattached... I'm working on my graduate project and have been feeling really blocked, but you are right, we need to stay loose. Thanks, I really admire your work.
I relate a lot to the part where you said we can get attached to certain shapes if we leave them too long. I’ve recently been struggling a lot with my art process feeling too rigid and restrictive; stuck in old habits. I really appreciate the video. Keep it up, man.
Another really good video. I always come away feeling like I have learned something, in this case your blocking in process. In the future I would like to see videos on transitions from shadow to lights and blending.
Great video! The computer demo for the blockin was super helpful. In a future video can you talk more about brush work? I struggle with over working and turning everything into mud. Also perspective of the face is a challenge for me. Thank you
This was very helpful, thank you! I'd love to see you make a video about how you come up with subject concepts for your work. How do you choose what to paint? Is there a story or message you are intentionally communicating with your art, or is it more intuitive?
I dont think i have much to say on that kinda thing. Thats why I dont think ill make a video on it. It was mostly trial and error and now its pretty intuitive
Its so interesting how we as artists will be making something and we KNOW it looks off but someone else will be looking at our piece and be like "It looks incredible!" Like when you decided to scrape off the paint and redo the composition more closer I was like WHAT NO IT LOOKS GREAT LOL but then you finished the second version and it was even more great. I always look forward to your videos. And your editing is good!

Love this, thanks for sharing. How about a video on color and temperature?
I have found the same thing. If I do an under painting it ends up jizzless as hell. If I don’t they have other issues but that’s another matter. My whole life I tried to paint realistically, now I’m trying to dial’er back just enough that it’s interesting but still a good likeness
Honestly maestro bravo. I just don't know nothing about digital proces, combination goes from head on sketch book, difrent combos, ilustration like old masters Frank Frazzeta, but Caravaggio and Rembrandt,Paul Rubens's i like that i love that shadows and dramatic efect, all i use in all... This is Spanish for me all with pc and digital prework.Regards with respect.Art is simply thing over years.but il like old way.
Awesome video, love that you just started again. Have you thought about using procreate to do the computer layer work? I use it and I think the process would be easier than what you used.
@@samiraeart yeah it exports as a Timelapse which isn’t enough time to explain what im doing for a video. Its good for IG but i prefer krita for longer videos
would love a video focusing on how you see color, as I am very drawn to the color palettes you create as well as your ability to both take colors from reference and also stray from reference when its needed to enhance a piece
I have been following you for a while and love all of your contents. You are a great source of inspiration to me. I was wondering, what pigments do you use in your first and second paintings ? They seem to be different. Thank you for sharing all this !
It's helpful to be reminded that every fuck up is valuable and not a waste of time, as long as you learned from that fuck up. I've been learning a lot lately, from my fuck ups and videos like yours.
Most artists make their own so they can create a completely original piece. You could also combine photos and other photos you find to create a reference and change it as you paint to create something original. If you aren’t concerned with making something original but wanna practice, the site “line of action” is perfect for artists finding references. I hope this helps!
Great video! But what if the light is soft and there aren't much shadows? In this case it is very hard to achieve likeness, I think because of subtle gradients that are make the whole form
Cool video! Can you talk about linseed oil? I just started oil painting and have no idea what it's for. I only use Gamsol to thin, and then the thickest my paint gets is right out of the tube. What does linseed oil have to do with it all?
thank you for your videos, i'm a beginner drawing and i have some questions. for me, my struggle mostly is getting stuck, or rather swamped in the middle of a painting or drawing. so for me its like this. say, that the first blocking of the painting is '1' and then the next blocking is '2' and the last detail is '10' for instance, then i would start with 1 -> 2 -> 3 maybe to 4 and then, i question myself if my 4 is ok and i can go to 5 or should i go back to 2 and do that again. and from there i go 1->2->3->4->3->2->3->4->3-> and cant progress to 5. so my question is this. if im stuck in the middle like this, would it be better to just progress through 5->6->7 and on even though im not confident about my 4? or should i redo it over until i get comfortable with my 4 ?
The way you began your study and your brute force approach made me cringe. However, the end result is truly impressive. For some reason, the final resulting portrait study immediately made me think of two paintings by Augustus John: his portrait of the poet Dylan Thomas and that of his son Robin.
bro just some unsolicted $0.02: you gotta put clickable links in your decription and make it easy for people. you can set it as an upload default (im sure you already use this) to have it pre-filled out so you only have to do it once, just have to edit them with the

Same
make it 4 artist! me too
As a beginner painter I almost choked when you erase everything and It really helped me recognize that I need to chill when I paint
YO i never clocked that im not ever looking at people in public in crazy detail but at their face shape and shadows and stuff, thats gonna help me so much omg
So inspiring! And watching you redo is very comforting for us amateurs😅love your paintings subjects so much too ❤

I’m an acrylic painter, I haven’t used oils before (I plan to tho) and I still feel like I’m gaining so much information through your process videos
Just go for it that’s what I did. At the beginning I would base out my painting shapes with acrylic and then do oil on top. Now I just do oil sometimes I’ll do acrylic first when I paint sky’s because I do drips and other things I want to dry fast .

love your work and videos! i'd love to see more on colour mixing
thx alot you're very inspiring
Youre my fave youtube channel i love these arts

Great breakdown of how to brake down the shapes ❤
Glad you liked it!!
@ThomMinnickArt Bless you 💞
perfect my man
Awesome video, love that you just started again. Have you thought about using procreate to do the computer layer work? I use it and I think the process would be easier than what you used.
I do use procreate on my ipad but there is no way to record like i did.
@ you can turn your drawing process into a video on procreate so you can see what you are doing on the screen, just won’t be able to see your hand
@@samiraeart yeah it exports as a Timelapse which isn’t enough time to explain what im doing for a video. Its good for IG but i prefer krita for longer videos
Absolutely love your videos and work !!!!!! so so informative and inspiring

another video* as i loved your previous one on color as well

Great Video, Great painting!
Thank you ❤❤❤❤
Photographing a painting with zero glare? Count me in!!
Just put out the video on it! How to make prints!
Sick painting
So i wanted to know where do you usually find references to paint?
Most artists make their own so they can create a completely original piece.
You could also combine photos and other photos you find to create a reference and change it as you paint to create something original.
If you aren’t concerned with making something original but wanna practice, the site “line of action” is perfect for artists finding references.
I hope this helps!
Great video! I subscribed

What drawing tablet do you use? By the way I really like your voiceovers, they are really calming.

Nice 👍🏼
does this work with acrylics?
It doesn’t
@ThomMinnickArt what would you recommend for acrylics?
idk but i paint like this
Subbed
Thats acrylic right?!
It's oil paint 🙂

Buss
Dont use computer! Just your talent, please
What does this mean. I showed me tracing it(sort of) me drawing it, then i did the whole thing again with paint?
Stop wasting your time, trace the reference on the canvas.
No sir!
How would you trace a digital reference on a canvas even? Im new to this stuff
