I tried painting a masterwork with cheap TEMU oil paints

- Each of these tubes of paint was only 2 DOLLARS. To be honest I was shocked by the quality of these paints. These are Marie's 1919 Art Supplies from Temu

Another painting of one of your doppelgangers.
I‘ve seen a video a few months back where another cheap brand was performing very well during the painting process, but the painting went through a drastic hue change in under a week. Would be interesting to see how this brand performs on the long run
I will pin a comment if anything changes!
I've been painting with Marie's oil paints for couple fo years already as I'm a broke-ass art student. I have several paintings of two years that have NOT changed it's hue.
@@lanad.7643 Marie's 1919 or masters?? I have seen a lot of variety of them so I wonder which once.
Perhaps you've also heard of Pebeo? Is that a good brand as well?
@@lanad.7643试试马利艺术家系列，仍然很便宜，但比普通马利好很多
Okay next find the most expensive worst art supplies thanks.

8:03 the whole time before I realized how much glare there was I was like “that looks nothing like the color” 😭

why's bro so majestic

No fr it hurts my brain

How does your channel not have way more subscribers. It's actually rare to have videos of traditional art broken down in this way, this cohesively and transparently, without cutting corners or editing to make it look like no effort was put in. Either that or just wordless time-lapses. I'm not a traditional artist but this video was incredibly helpful for my amateur drawing and even digital painting process.
I love experimenting with the cheap supplies, and save the expensive stuff for commissions
FR practice or master studies with cheaper paints
@@Di-ProdigyFranklin Roosevelt?
I do acrylics and find there's nothing wrong with many somewhat-cheaper paints. They're great for the background, for mixing (weaker tinting strength can be great when you're trying to subtly adjust something), or for glazing where, again, a higher transparency comes in handy.
I've done entire canvases in cheaper paints just to prove I could, and they look wonderful--but may take several layers to finish. In many ways, the canvases show more subtle colors than the expensive paints due to layering effects.
@@BronzeDragon133do u use heavy bodied acrylic or like. thin bodied acrylics i guess? 😅 ive been using ceramcoat $2 paints and they've worked well for me but idk how big of a difference heavy body makes especially cuz of the price jump
@@michelle5952 Huge. HUGE DIFFERENCE. The $2 paints are awful.
Heavy body paints (which I tend to use) can always be thinned with a bit of water, and are perfectly happy to be brushed flat.
With artist grade colors, a very little goes a very long way. That $35 tube of cadmium red is enough for a dozen large canvases with a fair amount of red on them, whereas the $2 tube of red doesn't go far at all. Artist grade paints have much higher pigment to filler ratios, better acrylic bases, and usually far less water in them.
Golden and Liquitex are the two top standards, but Sennelier is also wonderful and Winsor & Newton's professional grade is good as well. I'd suggest Liquitex to start; it tends to be more opaque whereas Golden uses a more transparent acrylic medium. You can mix and match, I have all of the above brands and more.
You can replace your paints slowly; I did at first. Whatever color you use most, replace that first, then white.
this video is also a great reminder for me that the painting process is long amd slow and that's the way it wotks! i get frustrated when i feel like i cant bust out an artwork fast enough, but its supposed to take time an dedication snd thought. great video!
When I was learning to paint, I was super broke so I just bought the very basics. I used to mix using only the primaries and it was the best teacher I had on color mixing. Now, I can mix any color pretty much on point
I think you might of painted a self portrait! Done that before on accident lol
“….might HAVE painted…”
The dictum is that we apply thick paint over thin paint ( that is, paint with more oil content on top of paint with less oil content) .
Oily paint “dries” more slowly than paint that has less oil.
If the oily paint is covered by a layer of thinner paint, the top layer will set first and the underneath layer will, as it sets, crack the top layer.
Who are you saying this for? The guy making the video?
@@dcasey714
I’m saying it for anyone who wants to understand the “rule” that thick,oily paint is laid on over thinned out paint and never the reverse.
For a second I thought I left my game on while watching this video but turned out to be the background music in your video! 😂
Marie’s is a good brand unless you bought a fake one. I used Marie’s multiple times in the past and it came out with no difference than winsor newton. I’m a professional with MFA in painting.
True. They've been around over a 100 years. Their products are quite good.
I appreciate this info. ❤ I am a watercolor painter who is now learning oils. I've already spent a small fortune on my watercolor supplies. Hearing that there's a decent, moderately priced oil paint is great news.
Bro looks like he's feeling nice. Edibles? Vape? Flower? Lmprao
the only thing i question about cheaper paints is lightfastness.
Same.
i’ve used cheap paints before, and in my experience the hues change so much when they fully dry
Never saw your channel before. I saw the thumbnail and thought you were doing a self portrait. I liked the comparison you did between the types of paint, and the long discourse during the time lapse was intelligent. By the way, you are much more attractive than the guy in the portrait.
Why did u do the guy in the painting like that ... What did he do
Your ability to conceptualize and mentalize art in a practical way is sooo helpful. Like when you were talking about stringing individual skills together to create a whole masterpiece. You seem very grounded and intellectual, which is rare for artist types. I love it thank you!
I am so pleased you appeared on RUclips. I am going to watch all your videos. The colour of your pink lipstick and gloss is incredibly similar to the original portrait you painted but in your painting you used darker tones with a matt finish. Fabulous portrait and interesting opinions on 19th century artist painting tecniques and glazing. To use such a limited pallete and using the cheap oil paints, as demonstrated, is a remarkable achievement. Thank you so much.
I enjoy both your painting, and your handsoming...
how very gay...
@@jnorth1000 Indeed...
Thank God you finished that ear! I couldn’t stop staring at it 😂
A beautiful portrait copy. My first set of oils back in the 70s was made by Marie - it is fabulous to know they are still in production. They were priced right, and some of their colours were wonderful. I had no knowledge of what I was doing, as it was a hobby for me, so I could not assess materials nor techniques well at that time. Thanks for this.
Please let me know what you're smoking it looks like its working
EXACTLY! Noticed it from the get go
marie's is actually a decent brand in china ive used it quite a bit. it doesn't compare to the actual expensive stuff but for the most part good enough for high school
I loved the topics you discussed. From you don't need really expensive materials to how Sargent approached his portraits. Great job!
watching it come together and the reveal in the end makes me want to start painting and learning how to do this stuff!! amazing
So, buy the Temu white, yellow ocher and red.
But use an Ivory black made by a different company.
Ivory Black has a bluish tinge to it.
Lamp black does not
I think ivory black is actually a very dark blue
@@LittleMew133 To my eye, there's the tiniest twitch of brown-blue in it.
It actually has green try mixing it with some yellow and it will give you green:) something close to olive green
@@shahlafoad9040
If ivory black has blue in it, adding yellow will make an olive green.
Beautiful man mixing colors with stardew valley music in the background? Sign me up
Just realized how poor I actually am, cuz the Maries Brand is considered expensive in my country
I am in the same boat... Lol. I buy one tube of good artist quality paint, manufactured in my own country, South Africa. The overseas art supplies are way to rich for me. I love to work in pastels as well but really had to put it down due prices being unaffordable for Rembrandt or Seneliers 😔
I have been doing an adjacent thing to your skill set for most of my life. Your videos are helping me as I start to get into digital painting. Poverty has a really good way of gate keeping oil paints as you demonstrated. Your videos are very helpful in reminding me of my fundamentals. As well as the core principles of the skill set I possess. It has made learning a new skill have the uncanny sensation of riding a bike lol
It’s your talent and skill. I’m simply gobsmacked by what you do so effortlessly.
Love the Stardew music in the back
there was also hotline miami and skyrim i went insane
@@doesbadart13runescape as well
Fascinating to watch and listen to your process.
You've got skills, and I appreciate the way that you explained your processes and why you do what you do. Also really appreciate the discussion about Sargent. He would just keep scraping away his efforts until he got into perfect flow and nailed it all at once in direct ala prima painting. A true master! Thanks for your video!
I was limited to buy Marie's, good practice paint to start with. Investing in buying higher quality paint one tube at a time. One day I will upgrade to Windsor and Newton 😊
You are one heck of a teacher, paint pusher.👍
Dude your whole channel is absolutely goated! The way you explain stuff is so entertaining and informing.
Fascinating to watch you work. Wonderful eyes in that portrait. Thank you.
That cold open - lol, AWESOME!
As for limiting one's palette, I absolutely agree! BUT, I think it's best done _after_ learning through experience how subtractive mixing works and fully understanding that requires understanding the split primary system (See Michael Wilcox's book, "Blue and Yellow Don't Make Green, Revised Edition). Once you've got that down, definitely limit your palette, your way. Remember! Without knowledge, we are without choices. Knowledge beats ignorance every day of the week.
Yes, Wilcox's book is very good!
my teacher always said, it's not in the brand or $$$ of materials, it's in your techniques and fundamentals.
Temu now has Ivory Black and Mars Black. Another option is to add Prussian Blue or Cobalt Blue to the palette -- both of which would add range to the gamut. Yet both are also mellower than Ultramarine Blue, which has a tendency to overpower other colors.
Amazing video love watching you create art keep up the great work
Brilliant!! I loved watching your process and hearing your thoughts. I am binge watching all your videos 😂
Ooooookay that was a fabulous video I want to paint now •_•
I used this brand throughout my whole childhood. It’s cheap for its quality and good alternative for practicing
Newer used Marie's paints, but I have their 5.6mm lead holder. It came with a box of 4B graphite leads, and both pencil and leads were of pretty nice quality.
Love the smell of the factory❤❤
What an orator! Really interesting commentary and narration - I'm subbed!
Can you do a long video like this of prepping a surface? Oil paints make the serotonin go brrrrr but HOW do I make the smooth canvas.
And tbh I love your formatting and really like how you explain why / how. Really looking forward to more content.
Excellent video and interesting. I will start to paint again.
Just great you sure have the gift so you are blessed
love the runescape music!
Your work is fabulous!
Love it!!
This guy is like if Marylin Monroe was a guy.... spell bindingly beautiful
Great work!
I’d love seeing you make that side by side comparison. 💕❤️💕
Nice experiment I liked the result . Interesting to see thank you.
I really enjoy Marie’s watercolor. I’m trying her gouache. Now I’ll go get some oil paint to try.
I should add it’s for mixed media work. Nothing like what you’re creating.
awesome video. Would definitely watch an expensive vs cheap video!
I did Chinese painting lessons for two years with Marie’s Chinese art mineral paints. It’s actually a really standup cheap brand! Perfectly decent one at that. Possibly helped by how all Chinese paints are supposed to be mineral mixes, so they don’t dare cut it much. Just don’t buy it from Temu, if possible.
I would love to see it I feel like my art lessons in oil are pretty useful 😊
Good job Jake!
Commenting because you deserve to make money from this channel. Subscribed because you are a great teacher and clearly love your art.
I would Love to see an old sketchbook of yours
I use those colours since forever :)
keep posting bro your gonna blow up
Just because it's from China doesn't mean it's bad quality. I bought paint brushes from a Chinese shop importing Chinese products. Those were the best brushes I ever bought... Even better than the expensive brushes in the art supply store. They were so cheap I bought 2 sets each of long handled brushes and short ones. Best decision I ever made. Those brushes are fantastic quality. Anyway as for paint, I can't afford expensive paint anyway. I use Windsor and Newton sets but I bought big cheap tubes of white paint. Paint is expensive and if I want to keep painting for pleasure it's going to be cheap paint on cheap canvas lol.
Best Watercolor painting brushes are from China. They have thousands years of traditional paintings
Fascinating! Subscribed and liked. 😊😊
Id love to see a comparison ❤
Loving the osrs background music
This is asmr with you mixing the paint
Me: trying to enjoy the painting
Jake:🗣
That was a great video. Watching you is always inspiring and calming, plz keep making these amazing videos and i would love to watch the expensive vs cheap video if possible
I watched this a few days ago and I am so tempted to buy some. I think I will pass on the Lamp Black and get Ultramarine Blue and use my white. I always go down the art supply rabbit hole. I enjoy your videos
I did purchase some hog hair bristle brushes a few months ago on Temu. A set of long handled brushes for $7.95. They were really great.
I am so sorry for bothering you, but I would love to see a full time lapse from your painting, there are some bits I don't really get how to do when I am painting and I would be really grateful if you show me how you do it.
Amazing channel btw, I am watching all your videos while I paint and draw and I will keep doing it, you inspire me a lot ❤
Nice self portrait :)
From the thumbnail, i thought you did your self-portrait 😅😂
That Skryim theme music is just 🤌
Amazing!
The fact that you used stardew valley music made me love your channel even more ❤ suscribed
Cheap vs expensive would be great!! See how you do out your thoughts on it.
Great video Thank you
I feel like your copy was missing a bunch of the very bright/contrast highlighting especially in the eye area. That being said you did a pretty good job and you are clearly a gifted artist and seem to know what you're talking about. You have earned my sub and I hope to see many more videos from you.
Love the buckshot and hotline Miami soundtracks for art videos that’s great
You wanna make sure when using the zorn or Apelles palette that you use a bluish black so you can mix a blue by mixing with white
I would love for you to do a self portrait in the style of this painting. You are that handsome.
And you are that gay.
Dang, bro, it was beautiful . Nice job. Better than nice .
Quality counts 👏
Longevity is important if you are going to expend time and talent for a painting. Ask any art restorer what can happen to the wrong paints over time.
Windwaker Music in the backround is very much appreciated
This is Not the video I expected. Had a great time
New subbie, your art work is amazing 👏 😱
Any fine artist using Hotline Miami background music in their videos desserves kudos.
sir can you post a full video of the paint with explanation and without speed the video, it would help a lot. It would be similar to a live lesson
Hotline-miami bg music made me happy :)
Lmaooo the “dealer” intro ‘ lmao I’m deep enough might as well
I was not ready for "Bing Chilling" to be in an art video
With your talent, id like to see what you could do using some quality, Old Holland paints (the best of the best)!
Would you be able to mix the brands like using the Windsor ivory black with the Temu colours or is that a Nono?
Upshot is: cheap supplies are OK to practice on , and technique & expertise mean more than expensive high-quality supplies. Still, if you are making something as a gift or to sell, you would not want to use cheap supplies.
"I don't want to just slap it down anywhere and then realize it's horribly composed when we paint"
I've never felt so called out in my life. I say *good day* to you, sir.
