Is it possible to feel proud of someone you don't know? I'm gonna say yes because I feel really proud, I can't explain how connected I feel to you by your art but I wish we were best friend Ruth :(. I'm really happy that you started a RUclips video because I learn a lot through my sight and this will make my painting sessions easier, bless your soul!
OMG yeah, when I saw that I was screaming to warn you, even though you couldn't hear me lol.btw, your art is A M A Z I N G. continue like that. you're great
Idk why but at 7:10 I started to tear up, it was the strangest feeling. I got this weird nostalgic feeling like I could relate to the painting... never happened to me before hahaha, thank you so much for sharing your art!!
I felt something too. Maybe the amount of practice I might need to make art all in a similar style, Or the amount of experience I might need to reach my destination. This made me think of my life.
same here! except I teared up at 5:13 when she started painting the hair. I feel so weird about it and it has never happened to me before but it was just too beautiful :'3c might've been the music too
This is so gorgeous and so magical! I kept thinking of a background story for her because of the title you gave her. "Magic always has a price" and the fact that she was taking off the mask, made me think that she had been given a magic mask that would allow her to defeat her enemy (a dragon?), but the mask took over her control (the blackness in the eyes of the mask), and in the process of her journey she had somehow scared away the townspeople of her home, and having defeated the enemy, come home and finally taken off the mask only the find it deserted. Her expression just made me think it looked a bit like she was taking off the mask for the first time in a very long while.
When you started the skin color of her face and when you added the black to her eyelashes it really truly brought her to life I was like WOAH!!! From just a drawing to literally looks like real eyes as if taken by a camera like JEEZ the TALENT!! So so impressed👏🏼👏🏼
This is so beautiful. I like to think that she is a princess knight that is coming home after a long time. However, when she comes back something wiped out her town/castle and while exploring the ruins she finds the mask and starts to feel nostalgic. The nostalgia is magic and the price is her snapping out of it back to the real world. All that remains are ruins and warm memories from a long time ago.
Wow! Has it really been 4 years? I remember watching this back then. I was probably still in school but I remember laying in bed and just watching how amazing it was yet calming it that I never realized I watched the whole thing. I just suddenly saw this on my for you page on here.
I can't describe enough how much I love this video! I keep coming back to it every once in a while..Its so whimsical and relaxing...Who else wants more videos like these from her?❤
This has got to be one of the most mystical and beautiful oil paintings I have EVER seen. It's so lovely, I had to comment. *This is my first youtube comment in years of using youtube* Thank you for this
Words will not do your art justice. Not only that, this entire video is so calming and tranquil. It was amazing to watch the paint at 3:37 . Everything was falling into place so delicately.
watching you paint her face and make her come to life made my heart stop, it was so breathtakingly beautiful! great piece, makes me want to practice more with my art
Watching this very late at night and I’m sleepy. As you were painting her face I thought she breathed and lowered her eyelids. I was entranced. It is a beautiful painting. You are extremely talented.
That moment when it transforms from "being painted" to "Brought To Life"... BOOM! that's when the magic happens for me. Thank you for posting your art in progress!!
Ok the time lapse is like the best ASMR video kinda stuff, just perfect and wonderfully satisfying. But every time the piano hit a weird note I got goosebumps I can’t do the dissonance oh my Lordy
Can I make her a background story? Magic Always Has A Price: She is a woman who grew up wanting to be a knight but in the time and society she’s in, a woman cannot be Knighted. She saved a travelling merchant from getting robbed one day as she was on her own journey of finding her path. This mysterious man gave her a “magical” mask to express his thanks telling her it would grant her heart’s deepest desires. Upon donning the mask out of curiosity, she found out that people saw her as a man, the mask casting a glamour but not altering her abilities nor giving her extraordinary strength. Taking the opportunity that the mask created for her, she made her dreams come true. She found a noble man who took her glamoured self in as a Squire and with him travelled the lands. Each and every pain and hardship She endured was all hers and true-only in a guise of a man in other people’s view because of the mask. On the day she was finally Knighted she decided to take off her mask unraveling the glamour. People then have accused her of being a witch and shunned her even though she tried explaining to them that the only “magic” she had was the mask casting a glamour. Her reward for protecting the weak was being cast out. With a heavy heart but with a heart that of a Knight true and true, she decided to still protect in the shadows. With her magical mask on hand, she guards the peace of the land which shunned her from the shadows...
Beautiful. I was thinking of some titles if this was a book. The Exiled Knight. The Masked Knight. The Shadow Knight? I don't like the last one. But it could be a title/name she has. A knight who guides, help, and protect the people. The knight roams around the land helping people whenever she can. It is this way that she can continue being a knight and continue doing what she always have done.
@@famo2963 I do :) I used to be a writer back in the Philippines but I was not able to pursue my passion any further because, you know, Life-Bills-Adulthood.
I know I'm late to this video but I had an idea for this lovely lady's story. With the idea that 'magic always has a price' i was thinking she may have been a very happy woman in her life until she discovered her magic. Due to this magic she was drug into a life of stress and challenges as she used them to keep the civilians safe (the armor) but in doing so she lost her life and sense of self and donned a mask. She then visits a familiar scape and remembers the beginning she tried so hard to ignore and removes her mask to remember. Just an idea!
This is so beautiful I actually got emotional, gosh. I just found your channel and you have such a well honed skill, I am going to binge watch your videos.
Ahh look who came in shining armour.. Ruth, this is absolutely gorgeous! Dont stop inspiring people with your works! All the best for your future painting vids and the growth of this channel!
This is sooooo gooooood💖💛💖 so addictive and super detailed, smoothing to watch. I love your skills and style! Please make more videos!!!!!!!! With more cat disturbances! 😻
When I see this it makes me recall a fictional character that is like Joan of Arc. The title can mean that the girl used magic to help with the war and the price was her death. By death it means that even if the people didn't kill her, death would've come for her no matter what. Like death by betrayal or an accident like falling from the castle wall or suicide or maybe a dark shadow engulfing her ( if you want a mysterious death ). Or maybe after her death the price would be that she would be forgotten by all, like she never existed even when the war was won because of her and her price. LOL this is just my imagination of what maybe her story would be. I love your art and lol I love how it makes me think of stories for it.
At first, I was going to comment about how you do things that my teachers have told me not to, technique-wise... but I realize that your style is beautiful and it doesn't really matter how you work, as long as that process works for you. Thank you for sharing and I think this piece is gorgeous.
thank you!!! the only specific one would be the mask - I've been playing with the idea of masks and personalities, and what people are hiding, or what you feel like you can't show to the world. maybe her magic was so powerful she felt she had to hide it :) xxx
Ruth Speer I love that. I like that the mask is off. It makes me think she felt comfortable enough to remove it. Like, she was safe. The ruin in the background is so stunning btw.
hey! i know im just a baby comment from a stranger, but i love your art! i hope my art style can be similar in the future, i have recently started being interested in art from last year and i have alot to learn lol im still a youngin, but i aspire for my art to be like yours and have the willpower to do such amazing and detailed art
If I'd come across the finished painting sonewhere, I'd have thought it was pretty and moved on. But watching it being painted before my very eyes... I feel like I'm almost as in love with it as you must feel:)
That was mesmerising to watch thank you !!! I imagined that she was a princess on a ball with masks (i dont remember how its called in english lol) and she had to marry a prince against her will but she decided to run away with one of the castle guardians who she was in love with but to do so she dressed up in his armour hahah does it sound legit? 😂😂
This is so gorgeous! I love your mythical girl. She appears to have been dressed so beautifully,at a party, and was called to go join her troops in battle! She hates to leave for she was finally in the arms of her true love.As they danced in each other’s arms, the note had come. It was secretly hidden inside a lovely scroll. No one would suspect it held such a dire message for her Majesty. She knew. Her future was within the parchment sheets. These were her thoughts as she stood, ready to defend her throne, her country. These were MY thoughts as I watched you paint and she evolved before my eyes. Waiting for your next adventure.💕💕💕
your art work is a masterpiece of brilliantance. From everything to the music and the filming. I'm more in the abstract division, I have a deep appreciation for your style. I subscribe at 3 in the morning.
Lovely video, I have a question. I know some artist don't use graphite to sketch on canvas. They say it is no, no. What makes you use it? That are the pros and cons? Does it matter?
I'm an artist and while I don't know much about oil paint specifically, I would say it's probably that some artists end up getting the graphite's dust mixed up into the paint or they dont fully cover it up so it looks a bit grayish, or that some artists are "purists" about doing their image in a single media or without any errors worked out beforehand, so anything other than that is considered "wrong" by the rules for that style.
Amazing & Beautiful! I love your Instagram! You paint the most beautiful paintings I have ever seen. It's so special that I found an artist in these days that can paint like this. You have become one of my favorite artists.
This was so incredible beautiful and inspiring!! Some of my favourite parts were when you would wipe away things you didn’t like. It was so very human, and many art videos seem to skip over those parts.
I've been avoiding oil painting tutorials, and I do see why... this was just a gorgeous painting and tutorial and eventually I will have to try oils again.......
A WHOLE lotta Solvent probably. Solvent is what makes oil paint runnier and more liquid or thing. Add enough of it and you can make oil paints almost as thin as watercolors. Also helps is dry a tiny bit faster if the base layer is thin enough.
Jor Blah varnish! Artists LOVE the stuff! It evens out color tones (brightens the brights, deepens the darks) and gives the piece a more unified clarity! It also is designed to protect your painting for years to come and gives the painting a beautiful glossy finish that looks radiant under most lighting but not so bad there's a massive glare. In this one she's using Gamvar. A personal favorite of most high class, skilled oil painters, and a personal favorite of mine as well. It's the top notch varnish on the market while still being pretty affordable. It's made by the Gamblin company (or Robert Gamblin) and if you grab a bottle of it, some Gamsol Oderless Mineral Spirits, and a battle of Galkyd, you've got a pretty standard starter kit for painting with oils. (Gamsol is a solvent and Galkyd is a Medium, both a Medium and a Solvent are rather important for painting in general -but especially with oils- and Gamsol is the safest, most efficient solvent out there. Galkyd is a personal fav too, it combines well with Gamsol to create smooth layers, and mixes with colors perfectly (it can even make cheap crappy oil colors look almost like professional grade paints too in my opinion, having started with crappy paints myself but good quality materials). I hope a lot of this helped. :)
I have always been a fan of your art on Instagram and now that I have seen the first video from your channel I’m mesmerized, and am in wills of evolving in colors the way you do❤️❤️❤️
ohhh my goodness everything about this was so enchanting and it was as if i was witnessing life being created or something idk this was just amazing thank u so much and please keep doing what you’re doing girl i loved it
your art is soo mesmerizing . the best art i have ever seen. though i am a watercolor artist but your video has encouraged me to work with oil colors. brilliant , outstanding. i am really glad i found your channel. simply love it. thank you for inspiring.
Finally!!!! I love everything about this!!! You are one of my favorite artists, Ruth! ❤️ You seriously inspire me to do better art 😩 Pls pls pls post more of these and continue to inspire a lot of people. SML from the Philippines 😘 Im a fan!! 🙏🏽
This is absolutely phenomenal, from the art itself to the editing to the atmosphere this video creates. I love every single part of it, oh my god. How is this channel not famous yet?
Beautiful, I was follwing the process of this painting on instagram, but it's so much more to see this way. Love this painting, those colours are so beautiful, and how you added darker blue to the sky, and made it night sky with a moon above your head, and all the detailssss, ahhh it's so beautiful and inspireing 👌👌❤️ Thank you so much for sharing the process, there is so much to learn from your paintings. Can't wait to see new painting here 🤗
This is magical! I adore the landscape behind her, sooo beautiful. You are definitely one of my biggest inspirations when it comes to art, I love how creative and colourful your work is. Magic indeed! (the Alias Grace one you did before this... I will never get over it. I showed it to my family and friends and to people from my art class screaming "LOOK HOW BEAUTIFUL THIS IS!!") Words can't describe how breathtakingly amazing that piece of art is. And this one too obv :)
This is Exquisite I could look at her for hours and find new bits I did not see before..the detail is amazing..Love it and the skin looks so fresh and real..Beautiful 😀
I can't even describe how I feel after watching your video! it is the most satisfying art video I ever watched .thanks for sharing this with us ! God bless you
How I know you really loved this piece and paid attention to it and took as long as you needed on it: *you changed your nail color over 4 times*

I'm really happy that you started a RUclips video because I learn a lot through my sight and this will make my painting sessions easier, bless your soul!

@@clorystella4892 WHHEERRREEE I DON'T SEE IT!??!!!!!?!?!?!!?
I am going to practice so hard now, this is inspiring and beautiful. Your skill is fantastical!
Idk why but at 7:10 I started to tear up, it was the strangest feeling. I got this weird nostalgic feeling like I could relate to the painting... never happened to me before hahaha, thank you so much for sharing your art!!
BTS Slays My Life Everyday bts slays my life too 😂 i love BTS ❤️🤦🏻♀️
Me tooooo
That’s crazy. Sometimes when I’m painting personal paintings, I feel the exact same way.
I felt something too.
Maybe the amount of practice I might need to make art all in a similar style, Or the amount of experience I might need to reach my destination. This made me think of my life.
same here! except I teared up at 5:13 when she started painting the hair. I feel so weird about it and it has never happened to me before but it was just too beautiful :'3c might've been the music too
This was so beautiful; I loved seeing the process of this piece after watching all your Instagram stories! The varnishing gave me goosebumps 💙
Awww thank you Sara ♥♥
I love both of your work so much!
This is so gorgeous and so magical! I kept thinking of a background story for her because of the title you gave her. "Magic always has a price" and the fact that she was taking off the mask, made me think that she had been given a magic mask that would allow her to defeat her enemy (a dragon?), but the mask took over her control (the blackness in the eyes of the mask), and in the process of her journey she had somehow scared away the townspeople of her home, and having defeated the enemy, come home and finally taken off the mask only the find it deserted. Her expression just made me think it looked a bit like she was taking off the mask for the first time in a very long while.
Bronwyn Davidson you should read The Last Namsara, it sounds similar to that, only without the mask
Ohh sound great, I will give it a read:) (Once I'm finished with my 50 other books in my waiting list!)
I LOVE THIS
YAY! :)
Bronwyn Davidson that story sounds like it would be true and so magical and creative 🙃
not even exaggrating, it IS so good... like.. thank you for your existence??
When you started the skin color of her face and when you added the black to her eyelashes it really truly brought her to life I was like WOAH!!! From just a drawing to literally looks like real eyes as if taken by a camera like JEEZ the TALENT!! So so impressed👏🏼👏🏼
Yes! A Ruth Speer RUclips channel was all I needed for my life to be complete ❤️✨🌸💕😘👌🏻🙌🏻
Awwwww thank you Katie!! That means so much coming from such a queen
This is so beautiful. I like to think that she is a princess knight that is coming home after a long time.

Just out of curiosity, how many weeks/ months did this take ?
Wow! Has it really been 4 years? I remember watching this back then. I was probably still in school but I remember laying in bed and just watching how amazing it was yet calming it that I never realized I watched the whole thing. I just suddenly saw this on my for you page on here.
These are the paintings I hope will be in museums in the future.
I can't describe enough how much I love this video! I keep coming back to it every once in a while..Its so whimsical and relaxing...Who else wants more videos like these from her?❤
I keep coming back to this video every once in a while, it's one of my favourites on yt. The painting is absolutely amazing. 😍😍
When I read the other comments, it was amazing to see that other viewers had their own “story” going on!💕💕💕💕
This has got to be one of the most mystical and beautiful oil paintings I have EVER seen. It's so lovely, I had to comment. *This is my first youtube comment in years of using youtube*
Thank you for this
The skin detailing is absolutely phenomenal. So much texture and balance
2:10 I just love how cats will just come right up to you no matter what you're doing and just want your attention
Words will not do your art justice. Not only that, this entire video is so calming and tranquil. It was amazing to watch the paint at 3:37 . Everything was falling into place so delicately.
ruth: 'floods' her panting
me new to oil painting: she knows what shes doing she knows what shes doing she knows what shes doing- oh looking pretty!
SAME
I rewatch this every once in a while. It makes me feel so good.. the video is so magical. This painting is one of my favourite paintings ever. ❤️
This looks like cover art to a really good book
Yep, some illustrators use oil painting to make book art. It's pure madness having in consideration the schedule to finish and get paid
watching you paint her face and make her come to life made my heart stop, it was so breathtakingly beautiful! great piece, makes me want to practice more with my art
Amazing
It feels like you are bringing her to life
Watching this very late at night and I’m sleepy. As you were painting her face I thought she breathed and lowered her eyelids. I was entranced. It is a beautiful painting. You are extremely talented.
This is incredible! I've always found oil painting so difficult
That moment when it transforms from "being painted" to "Brought To Life"... BOOM! that's when the magic happens for me. Thank you for posting your art in progress!!
I LOVE this SO much! It's literally better than the Mona Lisa! So intricate!😍 YOU have talent!😋
my heart cannot take this much artistic magic. Beautiful beyond words.
How do you even imagine such amazing interesting pictures???
youre one the few artists ive seen that doesnt start darkest to lightest! i love your style and your order of colours! your art is amazing :3
This video cured my depression, I love it and thank you
Haven't been captivated by anyone else's process videos like I am with yours! Beautiful work!
Seeing even more detail after that varnish 🙀
I just can’t believe how gorgeous this painting was at every single stage. You are so unbelievably talented.
Your hands look so clean!!!! my hands look like a mess after I paint
Luisa Freitas Gago same
Same.
Oh yeah it's everywhere!
Ok the time lapse is like the best ASMR video kinda stuff, just perfect and wonderfully satisfying. But every time the piano hit a weird note I got goosebumps I can’t do the dissonance oh my Lordy
Can I make her a background story?
Magic Always Has A Price:
She is a woman who grew up wanting to be a knight but in the time and society she’s in, a woman cannot be Knighted. She saved a travelling merchant from getting robbed one day as she was on her own journey of finding her path. This mysterious man gave her a “magical” mask to express his thanks telling her it would grant her heart’s deepest desires.

With her magical mask on hand, she guards the peace of the land which shunned her from the shadows...
This is beautiful.
Beautiful. I was thinking of some titles if this was a book.
The Exiled Knight.
The Masked Knight.
The Shadow Knight?
I don't like the last one. But it could be a title/name she has. A knight who guides, help, and protect the people. The knight roams around the land helping people whenever she can. It is this way that she can continue being a knight and continue doing what she always have done.
Story Teller do you write stories? Jus’ curious~
@@famo2963 I do :) I used to be a writer back in the Philippines but I was not able to pursue my passion any further because, you know, Life-Bills-Adulthood.

*2:15** fly disturbance (initially thought it was a spider!)*

I'm so glad you made a full video of this painting. It's so lovely! Are there anything symbolic elements you can talk about?
thank you!!! the only specific one would be the mask - I've been playing with the idea of masks and personalities, and what people are hiding, or what you feel like you can't show to the world. maybe her magic was so powerful she felt she had to hide it :) xxx
Ruth Speer I love that. I like that the mask is off. It makes me think she felt comfortable enough to remove it. Like, she was safe. The ruin in the background is so stunning btw.
I love this! I liked how you showed you planning it all out too since not a lot of artists will show that process! I found it very interesting

This explains why I have no talent all the artists on RUclips took my shares
But that's okay you can have them

It's made by the Gamblin company (or Robert Gamblin) and if you grab a bottle of it, some Gamsol Oderless Mineral Spirits, and a battle of Galkyd, you've got a pretty standard starter kit for painting with oils. (Gamsol is a solvent and Galkyd is a Medium, both a Medium and a Solvent are rather important for painting in general -but especially with oils- and Gamsol is the safest, most efficient solvent out there. Galkyd is a personal fav too, it combines well with Gamsol to create smooth layers, and mixes with colors perfectly (it can even make cheap crappy oil colors look almost like professional grade paints too in my opinion, having started with crappy paints myself but good quality materials). I hope a lot of this helped. :)
