The piercing gaze makes the portrait powerful. I get the feel that I'm being stared at, that the eyes are begging for a reply.
And I love it, I absolutely love paintings that convey emotions.
about the intensity of the painting, i feel like the subtleness of the expression is what makes it so intense? it feels very Real, if that makes sense? at least to me, it pulls out the feeling of emotions just starting to tumble outwards?
i really love how you used these two colours together, a lot less blue to neutral than i was expecting and all the more lovely for it! and that "oozing" effect and how it blends somewhat with the hair!
Omg I agree with you completely but I didn't know how to say it!
Never would have thought of this pairing. The outcome was gorgeous! (as always )
It is a very evocative piece and I can understand how it makes you feel uncomfortable looking at it because it reminds you of sadness. For me it is a mix of sadness and quiet determination not to drown in it. That is what makes this such a powerful piece. You captured it so well that I can't stop looking at it and that expression really draws me in. The color combo for this also works perfect. A print of this would be wonderful. Just want to give you a hug and thank you for sharing your journey with us. 💖
I love how you captured the expression and the drippy effect...but I also feel like the character is sad cause a bunch of delicious caramel got dumped on their head and therefore deemed inedible...and now I really want caramel...
LOL
I dont think you'll like what I'm about to say but, i think this might be my favorite piece of yours
I really love it for some reason
That makes me SO happy!! :D Thank you. It's reassuring to know that my associations with it are unique to me, and everyone will interpret it differently. ♥♥
✨Edit:
I'm a draftsman who loves watercolor. My drawings are crazy-detailed, so when I discovered that I could lay clean water over my sketches first - I was in heaven. Sometimes I'll throw transparent ground over them before the paint to preserve the cleanliness of the paper, but I don't do this on watercolor paper any longer as I feel putting watercolor ground over watercolor paper is just wasting expensive, beautiful watercolor paper. *Tip: if someone isn't already aware, try to always erase with only a kneaded eraser so you don't risk possibly damaging the sizing & end up with weird spots.
Love your interesting palettes!
As far as your piece goes, it's a good kind of intensity. It's one of the benefits of being an artist, not only to convey your feelings, but to give yourself the permission & the ability to exercise those feelings within, through the creation of your pieces. I wonder, even though it is uncomfortable, (as is the nature of change and growth, at first,) if you would benefit from harnessing your art in this manner. You could allow certain feelings to live inside the piece without having to feel them so sharply when later reviewing the works. Perception is boundless. ;) Keep it up. It is beautiful in many ways. 🥰
This piece made me cry. Stunning
I'm thoroughly enjoying this 2 color series. I'm wanting the list of episodes to just increasingly multiply. There's something so special about the way you communicate your artistic vision, not to mention, you paint beautifully. As a beginner it's so easy to get distracted by flashy advertisements, subtle propaganda, the heaviness of color theory in advanced articles such as Handprints wisdom wealthy website. I'm excited to learn it all at once, but it just isn't possible. I love the emotion seen here. Don't be afraid of it, stressed by it, made uncomfortable. It's part of what makes art so freeing. These bring me peace in slowing down, staying focused, enjoying the process. Keep em coming.
There is something weird about how I am with my art. It doesn't matter what it is (I usually do illustrative work that conveys no emotions at all), but I remember everything. I remember how my desk looked, I remember my surroundings, I remember what I was watching or listening to, what conversations were happening either with me or around me, I remember how I felt. It all comes back when I look at it. It's actually started a weird tradition where I paint on New Years Eve. I'm not one for resolutions, but I like to have gentle goals. When I look at that piece throughout the year I remember where I was, how I was feeling, what I felt like I didn't accomplish the year before, and why I'm working on what I am now. I've always wondered if anyone else is the same with their art.
I enjoyed watching this video, I was reminded of a class I took in college. The instructor was adamant that granulated paints came about from lazy manufacturers who took advantage of nostalgic artists who wanted “old time” paint effects! Needless to say She wanted no granulated paints in her class projects. One thing I am enjoying about watching young artists on RUclips is the fact that there does not seem to be only one way to work. I got so tired of being told to work the “Right Way” or get a failing grade! The “Rules” are ignored or disregarded with a vengeance! Keep going just as you are, please continue to use your own emotions to create these lovely paintings.
Here am i... this one was actually the first video I've ever watched in this precious channel, and now I've gone through most of your videos, and I can say that I've found art in me, finally after years and years of trying to copy reality instead of interpreting feelings, colors and people. Thank you so much for this, you helped me a lot...
I think this is a beautiful painting, and sometimes when you're sad some of the best art pieces can come out of it. you should be very proud of this painting it's beautiful and I hope the next ones will be happier because I want you to be happy.
My experience in life has taught me that people have various bouts with depression and anxiety throughout their lives.The problem is we’re oftentimes uncomfortable expressing those vulnerable feelings with our words. A painting such as this one captures a troubled feeling. What I love is the capture has a beauty to behold. We feel less alone looking, we feel connected and we feel the universality of the human experience. Thank-You for your lovely video work. You have helped me more than you could know, navigating the ebb and flow of my life.
I definitely understand what you mean by painting intense emotions. It feels exhausting sometimes for me, too. I realize I'm making the expression I am drawing while I do it. Once it is painted and done, it is forever the same on the paper. It can be good to look at it and reminisce how I felt at the time but it is much if I am already feeling something intense. The blanker expressions give me so much calm and joy, like a joy you feel from being content. That's why I love your paintings! Do whatever makes you feel good! ily
I agree that the piece feels evocative and emotional. Most of that is conveyed through the furrowed brow, and the glossiness of the eye. Very lovely. Btw, I believe M. Graham's PB60 is called Anthraquinone Blue, rather than Indanthrone, just in case someone is looking to purchase this color.
Thanks for sharing such a personal piece! To me this painting does not necessarily show sadness but when I look at it I feel melancholic, like a rainy day. Definitely intense, and also very beautiful. Congrats, it's an amazing piece of art!
I know exactly what you mean about your art subtly emoting and I think your normal style is really awesome. This painting is definitely different. It does portray a lot more intensely than your normal work. For me, definitely not as intensely as it does for you but it does come across as being personal. That's a really special thing to be able to do with art! This is something that I can relate to but in a very different way. There is a series of paintings that I've created that I rarely if ever share with others and they are all creations that came through me during times of extreme pain and doubt. When I look at them they remind me of those moments I experienced. They remind of what I've been through and how far I've come and I cherish them for that reason. Of course we all have our different ways of emoting through our art and there is no one right way to do it. I think this painting that you've created is beautiful and honest. I love that honey texture which adds a slow heavy feeling to the anxious expression on the face. It evokes a sense of urgency while being held back or hindered, almost to a point of silent panic. It's good but I can totally see why it woud be a bit intense for you as the artist.
This is NOT "too much", it is expressing something and that's good! Thumbs up :)
The Orange brings warmth and power to the portrait..sad but reflective and mature
Lovely piece, I don’t think it’s too intense. Intensity isn’t always bad. Often art makes us feel vulnerable.
I absolutely love your voice overs. They are so natural, it feels like I’m right there with you and your voice calms me. Your art is amazing as always :) I’ve been bingeing over the quarantine.
I could not do art for a decade because of severe depression. Only lately i’ve been able to get back to my creative outlet, after finally finding a terrific therapist and medication that works. I really love artwork that shows our deepest emotions!
Personally this is my favorite piece that you've done in recent time. The emotion may feel piercing to you because you felt it but this piece is subtle in the expression but it feels real. I love how you let the colors play with each other and again favorite piece so amazing work as usual!
I really love this piece it's like your every day painting by Arlee but with a emotional twist!!! I think the neutral expression along with the sad eyes add to the intensity, also the balance of the brown and blue gives more of a emotional side to a blank expression. I think having the piece balanced and not primarily blue or brown was a good idea for this piece and of course I would love to see this as a print ✨💕
Pretty classic with just two simple colors. Love it
There is something I find so beautiful about just looking at a picture and just 100 percent getting it. I feel like seeing this piece I know you better, and strangly it makes me happy to know we aren't so different. I can't wiat to see another vidoe like this!
My favorite eyeshadow pigment is kind of brown and blue!!
I love watching you so much. My boyfriend bought me an original for Christmas and I'm in love. You inspire me to want to learn more about art and mostly faces and watercolors.
Liv Greene Ooh, which one? What a great boyfriend
I love this one. Truly. It feels like it has more depth and "you" in it than I have felt in other pieces...others sometimes feel like a drawing to be done... And this one feels more like it was birthed out and has a story? others pieces that I say oh thats beautiful I mean it because they are all really good or interesting and beautiful but this one? This one moved me! My favorite!
I absolutely love this painting
I don’t know how to paint like this, and think it is fantastic! Yes, it is intense. The expression is a little bit distraught. Thank you for the chat and process. He went through with the painting.
I love his emotion. Such intent through his eyes. Is he deep in thought or questioning? Great job Arleesha. Great color combo too.
Wow!!! Your 2 color series is my favorite and help me learn so much!
This turned out so cool -- I really love the color combination! I'm a huge fan of payne's gray in paintings anyway and these moodier blues and grays worked wonderfully! Also -- I just wanted to say thank you for posting this and for having content that focuses on art and the experience of using these art supplies. Some days my notifications are all challenges and gimmicks on art youtube or instagram and these are so refreshing. This is the art content I'm here for. (: Thanks again for sharing this with us!
Your paintings are so beautiful, it always puts me in a peaceful mood watching you, you're easily my favorite artist :)
This is one of my favourite pairing for oils as well!
I like that you mentioned that phthalo blue and burnt sienna make an interesting mix. I stumbled upon a mixture of these paints that just happened to be the most beautiful earthy teal color.
This is really fantastic. You seem to have a really intimate knowledge of colours
I know this was two years ago but it just came up in my feed. I love, love, love the look of the colors at 9:46.
Completely understand why you don't paint strong expressions. You would have to be in that mood to paint certain expressions however, you can't paint in certain moods. Such an empathic person problem. Completely the same. ❤
I’d probably have that expression too if someone was pouring any kind of brown liquid in me. But, seriously, I actually love paintings that show clear emotion, kind of the opposite to you. It’s just an opinion, but it’s especially inspiring when I see someone makes an intense emotion to convey.
i just wanted to say: thank you for doing what you do. i recently lost a family member to covid, and your videos give me such a comforting feeling that the loss hurts a little less. thank you
your art is so stunning, and i would love to buy this as a print.
Another beautiful concept!!
this painting is beautiful. the expression is so subtle but still feels intense and real. i dont know how you capture emotion so perfectly, im always in awe
this painting is stunning!
Your videos are always calming to listen to! I'm gonna start using water on graphite from now on. I had no idea about that before! This is a beautiful piece!
This is one of my favorite things you've ever created on here. BECAUSE of the emotion.
You made me want to pull out my M. Graham pallet. Thanks.
As always, this is a stunning piece, but the emotion this particular one convey is wonderful. It's like i'd feel the need to hug her
I love all the colours you can get from that combination, and that painting is beautiful! I think it's my favourite so far. But I completely get what you're saying, if I'm in a bad place mentally when I do a painting, I don't like looking at it later on because it reminds me too much of it.
I love intense artwork 'cause I love to see how the artist was feeling, what he or she was communicating at that time and how I can relate to that feeling. Aweome work, as always, Arlee!! I'm a huge fan
Wow you’re talented! Everything looks so effortlessly rendered!
It’s a very thought provoking piece and definitely has an intensity to it, which makes it so interesting. I get the feeling of yearning...yearning for a change/shift in circumstance. It’s a great piece of artwork!!
I'm still in love with the purple and yellow combo that you did. 💜
I don't know if it's because of my mood, the color combination, your commentary, the music, or the book feels I'm having right now (or maybe a combination of all these things) but this painting does feel intense. I just want to give them a hug and hold on tight and say that everything will be alright...
It came out so beautiful!
I ran into your youtube when I was looking for the himi gouache reviews. I am officially hooked on your art style and what every painting you make brings. Beautiful work 😌
The colors are so beautiful:) I love the combination of these two! Your final piece is stunning too!
This pairing worked really well together. I could definitely see a different gentle feeling about this piece. A little bit of vulnerability. Maybe some worry or concerns. It really is a nice change from your other portraits. And I think it’s ok that some of our emotions show through in our art. I’m enjoying this series a lot. Looking forward to the next
Yes this piece is very intense and I too have paintings I can’t even look at because I painted them while having a panic attack so when I look at them now I feel the panic I felt while painting. Painting is my coping mechanism and helps me calm down. As for the piece it is just breathtaking. You captured the emotions through the color and through the subtile facial expressions. It feels real and honest. One can feel the emotions by just looking at it. This is by far one of my favorite pieces by you!
Love this painting! Especially her expression. Absolutely stunning. I do believe wether or not we like it is secondary to how you feel about it, since you spend more time on/with it.
Perfect timing! Woke up to a new Arleesha video 😍 also I just started making my own hand made watercolors with the help of your videos! So thanks 😊
I love this pairing! Coincidentally two of the few tubes of M.Graham paints in my collection and definetly two of my favourites over all^^
Honestly, as soon as I saw the video I was so excited to watch it and the small preview of the artwork had me shook! It's definetly one of my favourite pieces now, it is intense (in the best way) and the expression is so beautiful *-*
So all in all, a great video as always^^
Thank you for teaching me how to accept my art and loosen up on myself... You are such an imcredible inspiration ♥️
OMG i really want to try and paint something with this pairing now! Love the way you paint!
Just opened RUclips and wow! A new Arleesha video 😳✋
I just finished painting for the day but your videos always inspire me so much, I’ll have to continue now whilst watching this ❤️
Watching this made me feel much better, you have such a calming lovely effect and your tentative brushstrokes and use of colour dance together so beautifully, especially in this piece, I appreciate you sharing a part of yourself, this channel means a lot ❤️
This series of yours is my absolute favorite and made me follow you in the first place. I've wanted to do something similar on my own but I'm always stuck on what to paint with the color combination. I think this piece itself is amazing, but I can understand why you yourself would have mixed feelings on it. :) keep doing your amazing work 💛
I love limited palettes so much. I’m also a Payne’s Grey fan...so this color combo made me giddy :)
I love this.
So excited to watch the video! Love the choice of colors :)
Lovely!
this video is so calming, thank you ♥️
and i really like this piece, it's reminds me feelings of a nature after rain or a eyes after tears♥️♥️
and I'm so excited to try that combination! got my indanthrone blue today, yay! :)
i love this new move with the facial expression, i find it so striking and relatable! its painted in a delicate and beautiful way but the expression almost looks like disgust to me, love that contradiction, it sparks my interest.
but of course paint how you want to paint, obviously thats the best artistic choice for all of us. just sharing my opinion on this piece since you asked! it looks really good to me :)
When you talked about not touching your M. Graham and Daniel Smith colors in a while, I laughed because I just spent the last few weeks researching and buying my first palette of artist grade paints and did the same exact thing you described, which was research a bunch of other artists' impressions on paints and build a palette of colors that I /thought/ I would like. I look forward to approaching the stage you're in now, where those palettes, while still beautiful collections of colors, don't quite fit what you as an individual artist want from your tools.
If you ever get around to making that updated list of M. Graham/Daniel Smith colors, I'd love to know what your process is, and how your experience with different paints has shaped your opinions! I think it'd be a fascinating video!!
Hope you are well and thank you for this lovely video!!
It’s interesting how you painted a portrait of someone with a honey-like liquid dripping off their face while using paints with honey in them! Beautiful piece as always, and this one does seem a bit more melancholy than usual
I get what you mean about the peice feeling too intense. I often paint when I’m feeling over emotional and there’s on specific painting I can’t finish because it has too much intense feeling associated with it. It was vent art after my grandpa passed and I want to finish it in a sort of ode to him but I just can’t. Art in relation to emotions is so wild.
I LOVE Quin. Rust, it's one of my favs. I don't have that blue, but am gunna try this with Ultramarine and Phthalo Blue and see how it turns out (Blue is my favorite, idk why I don't have more). I really love the intense look, but I like intense emotions coming through in art/music sooo... I can't believe I just saw this, I had to reset my notifications onto "ALL", I must've wacked them with my chunky fingers when I was sleepy.😹 Hey, at least I had new vids to watch because of it!
I love this piece!! I don't think there emotion is too much at all. It's a nice change from your normal stuff, I think!
So beautiful! I see hurt in those eyes.
glad youre back ❤️❤️❤️
Now that I think of it, this is a very useful combination. Considering you can mix a grey with it!
beautiful
Imo crayola has GREAT erasable color pencils for like $3-5 I think- they feel nice, erase very well, and the erasers on the end match the color of the pencil which isn’t necessary but is always fun
"Isn't this too intense and personal?" - well... *cough* just don't hang it on the wall *cough*
And I like the pencil showing through, I think it really goes well with moodiness of certain paintings. It may not be fitting for every mood and emotion, but for most of them it looks cool. Especially for more strong emotional paintings it is great, adds a level of distress, imperfection that humans are. I think it will not fit very light mood or positive picture, but if you use a coloured pencil for those, that will look interesting. By the way, you can use Watercolour Pencils for drawing too, they will wash off if used lightly, or even add a cool effect if used more boldly, and you don't get an oily/waxy residue. I've seen artists use them to enhance certain areas of outline before adding washes, looked very nice. I think Steve's recent Azalea painting features that trick.
I completely understand where you are coming from in the sense that the painting reflects your negative emotions at the time, but I absolutely love the intensity that the finished piece conveys!! 💖 the two colors worked gorgeously together, too!
I recently discovered that PB60 (Indanthrone) comes in two “versions”: a cooler and a warmer version. I first had Winsor & Newton’s version (which is cooler) and when I got Daniel Smith’s it was MUCH warmer (a lot more red; like blue jeans). I was confused and looked it up and confirmed this. Not sure which one I prefer. The DS seems darker valued and redder. Both perform similar in mixes.
Theres a subtle intensity in the eyes and the eyebrows that kinda... lowkey makes me uncomfortable? But it's not a bad feeling, if that makes any sense? Imo, human emotion is best shown through simple things, like furrowing of the brows, and smile lines. I find it most beautiful because theres a layer of mystery, and vague-barely-there gestures tell the most about someone.
Alot of my favourite personal artworks make me feel unsettled, because I made them when _I_ was unsettled, and it sometimes pains me to look back at them because its like a record of what I was feeling at the time, so I getchu!!
I try not to do this as much, because I dont want to get stuck in the loop of needing sad feelings to make art again. But the liberation from getting feelings onto paper cant really be replicated for me, so im trying to find a healthy balance haha.
Make prints of this please!!!! Obsessed.
Very nice
It is intense. It’s that one brushstroke going from the eye to the eyebrow. How odd that one brushstroke makes such a difference. Its good.
What a coincidence that I just recently bought those two colours (from White Nights though :)), a PB29 Ultramarine and PR102 (soo almost PR101 😆) Red Ochre :D I really like this combo actually, so it's going to be great seeing your take on it :) also I recently got really into analyzing pigments in paints 😂💞
And now I can go watch the thing, I'm sure it will be lovely 💞 :3
(I'm here before watching the video yet, but the painting looks beautiful already on the thumbnail :))
How ironic! I just completed a painting with the same colour palette, but the combo I used was Trans Red Oxide & Cobalt by Daniel Smith. They really create stunning warm and cool grays with the cobalt granulating.
honestly graphite usually doesn't move or muddy my colors much when i do watercolor over it
Awesome work :)
Could you please tell me what the 5th color is in your palette? (The bright blue color) at 7:34. Thank you!
I think a picture is worth a thousand words. Maybe to close for comfort but well done!!!! and Thank you for the info . Peace
I was recently looking at some different neutral mixes and found the brown and blue option. Dont have many browns though so that's a bit disappointing.
Bellissimo
Hello Arleesha, many greetings from Hamburg, Germany. Just noticed your PO box is in Hamburg, Pennsylvania :)
Love your videos, especially the paint making ones!
