HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 26 авг 2024
- I hope you all enjoy this quick session on portrait painting. I wanted to express how I think about building up form and being more expansive with your mark making rather than being beholden to your drawing.

RUclips has really brought out of the darkness all this talent of painters and really puts in perspective that there's a lot of better artists out there and if you want to compete you better be original and have your own style. Don't try to mimic someone else's art just be you and you'll be just fine and don't be intimidated by others that's just gonna make you not want to be a painter.
I love how you build up the paint layers. Thank you for sharing! : )
I found this video hilarious. The painting bumbles along for six or seven minutes of it, and near the end you talk about "thinking of leaving it there". And then, suddenly, apparently out of nowhere, in a laugh out loud moment, it "turns out alright". Really? I can't honestly say that it's one of the best paintings I've ever seen - for the simple reason that it is THE best painting I've ever seen, above all others, ever. The quality of light is beyond superb. I could look at this for hours. Truly, this is the work of a genius, it really is. Thank you for sharing it with the world.
Wow, thank you. You really changed my thought process. I love this concept of painting
Cool, glad it was helpful. Thanks for watching!
Thanks so much for sharing Matt!!!! Love your work brother. #neverstop
Wow what a beautiful painting. The lady looks like the one in the Broad museum 😍 Thanks for sharing. I love your artwork. I’ll come back often 🤩
Thanks so much, appreciate it!
I liked the explanation regarding pushing past the architecture or structure lines... bringing about more dimensionality. Awesome . Thank you.
It came out beautifully as usual 😊
Awesome, thanks for watching!
So cool, I improved my paintings so much analyzing your work, and now I got your videos ;) Love the way you build your paintings.
That's awesome! I'm so glad the videos are helping! Happy Painting!
Amazing piece!
Awesome painting and video man. loved the commentary!
Omg slews here
Thanks man, I appreciate it! Just checked out your channel and subscribed. Great videos! 👍
@@harrietanderson5776 LOL, that's what I thought!
Damn I am so glad I came across your channel. Love the painting!
Thank you!
i agree with you Matt, I'd rather do a portrait with soul and character rather than a phtographic image of someone, great job!
This is so helpful to hear your thought process. Thank you!
You're welcome! Thanks for watching!
I love this! I am a beginner painter and have done a few portraits by tracing. Yesterday this video inspired me and I did my first painting without a stencil. I posted a short timelapse on my channel. It was super challenging to correct all my mistakes as I was painting without "cheating".
Thanks for giving me the confidence!
Love your painterly way of creating a portrait.
Thanks!
pure magic, love this.
Thank you!
Your method has mind blown me
Thanks!
I really like your methodology Matt, I need to work this way. 👌
Thanks!
As an art n design student, it's really inspiring for me!
Glad you enjoyed it, thanks for watching!
Bravisssssimo !!!!
Woooww... I love this technique. I really want to learn it, very well done. Thanks for the inspiration 👍😃💙
Thanks so much for watching!
Thanks for cutting to the chase
I think I'm going insane: I started oil painting again after a 20 + year hiatus a month ago.. First and second weeks went great.. Now suddenly I can't paint a single, decent, basic thing.. Anybody had this same experience? Am I just losing my mind?
Even though it feels hard in the moment, you're learning more from the bad paintings than you are from the good ones. Keep going.
@@talbertart thank you so much for the encouragement !
Very talented!
u r perfect artist wow 👏👏👏👏

You're welcome, glad you enjoyed it!
@@talbertart visited your Instagram, masterpieces 🔥
Another winner Matt!
Thanks Dean!
that is realy amazing well done
Thanks!
Enjoyed the video. I think the antipathy against tracing or projecting the drawing is that it is an effective way to get accurate proportions and easy to do. Whereas drawing is hard to do and it is easy to make mistakes on the proportions. So it’s natural to resent artist that use techniques that to a lay viewer appear “better” but take little skill /effort. Woodworkers who use hand tools can feel the same about someone who uses a CNC milling machine. Why not resent someone that gets the results without having to pay in terms of skill .
Glad you enjoyed the video, thanks! I wouldn't say I resent people that trace or project their drawing, but it's just not a method that resonates with me and often times I don't think the results are all that interesting. However there are times when I've seen it done in a unique way that I like. I just think its important for artists to learn the fundamentals of drawing and painting and working from life. If you jump right to tracing and filling it in with paint you'll miss out on a deeper understanding of painting.
This is soooo amazing! I'm inspired to paint more oil portraits
Thanks!

Awesome style.
Thanks!
Hello. I like your style and I just subscribed. I am also painting portraits in oil, it is fun.
Thanks! Happy painting!
@@talbertart Thanks.
Amazing work❤. How did you go from solid blocks of colours on the face, to soft blended transitions?? It was very difficult to see because the video was in fast forward.
Sir portrait very nice
Thanks!
👍 thanks
You're welcome!
beginner here watching ...
The colours you are using in the 1 layer and in 2nd layer are different right ? Did you use light colour value as compared to the 1st layer ?
How are you layering so many paint layers ? Do you go gradually from thinnest to thickest with each new color ? Mine always blend with the previous layer :(
When I put a color down I'm thinking about what it will be interacting with on the canvas. There are many factors involved in how the paint layers will interact, like how thick or thin your paint is, how hard or soft you press your brush down when applying it, how much medium or thinner you're using. I think its just years of practice and knowing what will happen when I put this color on top of that color. Sorry if this is confusing. Thanks for watching!
@@talbertart Thank you for replying! Practice makes perfect I guess :)
I found the jump from 2:55 to 3:00 frustrating because the composition seemed to change a lot
Yeah, it's frustrating when my camera stops recording and I don't realize it. I wouldn't call it a composition change. It's just me refining the placement of the nose and mouth, basically fixing drawing errors as I paint.
it sucks : at one point, it flows ! lol. very strong.
I do enjoy building into the chaos. I think its important to give yourself freedom in the beginning to lay marks down without judgment. Thanks for watching!
Nice tacking on the portrait. However, in my opinion, you could easily start right away with 1:12 without any outlines. I agree that you need to put paint on the surface, in order to have material to work with. So block in big color shapes and move them and refine in the process. You want a loose and spontaneous portrait? Set yourself free out the cage of outlines!
What medium did you use for painting this
Just Gamblin Gamsol Mineral Spirits. Thanks for watching!
You are what I want to be
I appreciate it, thanks for watching!
Those red eyes. 420 for life:))
Buen trabajo!…, pero !mucho hablas!.
Suggestion: do not cut off important parts like doing the mouth and the eyes, that's confusing for somebody who's learning. Also, that is the moment when the painting really starts to look realistic, so big mistake in my opinion.
I just didn't record the whole thing, so it is what is is. Enjoy.
This is really rough work
