OMG. David, you have rocked my art world. I’ve been waiting for you for years. Your expectations and comparisons have explained so much. You’ve moved me forward. Please continue on. Looking forward to seeing more of you.
Living in France now inspires me to want to paint again after 30 years. Your small explanations really make a lot of sense but no other art teacher ever explained this. So bravo for learning from masters and sharing with us.
David Dunlop is phenomenal. I love listening to him as well as watching him paint. He shares a wealth of information and instruction. Love his series on SC Create TV. Thank you….
Hi David, the two minute watercolors as well as the 10 minute oil sketch master videos have inspired me to my most productive and creative year of painting, and I've been wrestling with painting on and off for about 8 years. Thanks for sharing your knowledge and keep up the great work.
The Universe is definitely balanced David! In basically 11 minutes you have captured what I still haven't been able to coax onto my canvas. But, I will keep trying and I will keep watching you until I can do it too. Thank you David for making these videos. You are an inspiration!
Hi, I am painting on L84C artfix linen, a quadruple handprimed Belgian linen ( hand primed in France) available through Jerry's Artarama . I buy it on rolls that are 85 "tall and 6 yards long. It's an extremely smooth ( the smoothest available on the planet) linen....reminds me of the polished panels of Dutch 17th Century Landscape painters. Best, David
Thank you ...a revelation! "Painting with air, I love it A privilege to be standing behind you as you work with the light hearted, erudite banter Excellent.
David - many thanks for your wonderful videos! They are so succinct and helpful in the smallest - and largest - ways imaginable. Your method of description and instruction is quite enjoyable, as is your touch of humor. I've discovered you are not far and I plan to sign up for a class.
Complementary colors that are equal in value with soft and dissolved edges between them, equals luminosity. Thank you for that note, I think I will be remembering that one.
Rob S. Well great Roberts think alike I guess, haha. But that is a really awesome fact he pointed out. I have been making color tests on microsoft paint where I make different color combinations with exactly the same tonal values, and it creates a really interesting shimmering visual effect. I always thought high tonal contrasts were the only way to really get visual interest, so this is an awesome visual fact that all picture makers should know.
I love this guy! This was so much fun to watch as well as to use as a reference in my own work! Thanks so much for posting! This was a lovely demo! Bye! I'm off to paint, so excited!
love your video! and you seem to enjoy yourself so! that's what it's all about, love the way you verbally express your video also! please keep making more videos, so helpful!
Woah. This is proper painting. This is So refreshing! Great to listen to someone who knows that you are always just trying to steer the accidental. ( but using your knowledge of craft and art history to the limits too. ) Awesome. Wish I had known you as a tutor 40 years ago!
What a treat and a joy that demonstration was - a brilliant painter and a funny painter makes for a wonderful combination, it was a pleasure to watch and to listen to..
Brilliant! I love how how every layer is slowly built up. And that u r able to have a go at this. Obviously he makes it look so easy. But lovely painting.
What a marvelous lesson. And, what an effective teaching style! Sure hope to see more lessons on oils; it was so helpful to me - as a beginner, nearing retirement myself! Thank you for the excellent video. Kathy
Love your video David...Your teaching method is so 'down to earth' and full of fun. Wish I lived up over instead of down under to have a few lessons with you... Maureen
Hi - We are happy that you enjoyed it! Thank you very much for watching and for writing to us! It means so much to us to hear from you. All the best, Connie and David
Hi David, Great video, I love the way you teach as it makes it seem as if anyone can paint like you. Makes me want to learn how to paint with oils! Best, Ethan
It's such a hoot watching someone have such fun while not worrying about the outcome. I think it usually makes the resulting painting better and more enjoyable to view when it's done (well.... at least for me!). I just found you today and can't wait to binge watch your videos. Thanks for taking the time and trouble to do these. Subbed!!!
I really enjoyed your quick watercolor and oil sketch films. They have encouraged me to try and just let go and paint rather than think about it too much in advance. I am also impressed with your 'easel' and would be interested if you have a simple plan on how to make one. Thank you
In answer to your question about what surface; as I recall I think I was working on a varnished 140lb. Hot press watercolor paper which is exactly how I would paint on a smooth surface portrait linen.
Jamie, oops. I hit the wrong reply box at first. now, let me thank you! and suggest my online classes at daviddunlop.com I also provide free blogposts there. David
Hi, pejoly - We are happy that you enjoyed it! We apologize for the very long delay in responding! Thank you very much for watching and for writing to us! All the best, Connie and David
Hi David, Well done from Ireland. Just enjoyed your Painting Landscapes which I purchased in November, wish I could attend some of your live sessions. Do you have any more oil painting CDs for sale
It was fun to paint along with this lesson. Because my acrylics where a little sticky, I had to use a little different approach. Still, it was uplifting and gave me the freedom to loosen up.
I loved this demo! But...I am left with some questions: 1. Oil tube paint and linseed oil? Then what did you did the brush into to make things "drippy," as you stated? 2. I realize this is a sketch, but to many of us it would be a finished painting. But what was it painted on? Watercolor paper, which I think would eventually succumb to the oil, or linen? I don't think you said what you're painting on. Thank you, it's a terrific video! Brian
Dear @MrChromio - Thank you very much for watching and for writing to us! It means so much to us to hear from you. Good luck with your painting. Kind regards, David and Connie

As always David, inspiring. It gives me ideas for my Sunday morning paint out. Thank you so much for posting again -- you give me hope!

Weird, my name is Robert too and that quote stood out to me, I was going to write it down as well, you beat me to it!

Watching you work is mesmerizing. I wish I could be so bold to use large brushes. You are great.

Hi David,
Well done from Ireland.
Just enjoyed your Painting Landscapes which I purchased in November, wish I could attend some of your live sessions. Do you have any more oil painting CDs for sale
I just discovered your videos and they are great, but I had to write to comment on your palette at 3:20, that is hilarious/awesome!
Very interesting! Thanks.
Hi - We are happy that you enjoyed it! Thank you very much for watching and for writing to us we appreciate it! All the best, Connie and David

Dear Bettina - I am happy that you enjoyed painting along - thank you for watching! Kind regards, David
Let me get this straight...
*Suspicious*
This is very nice picture
Amazing🎨
Many many thanks, Carmen - thank you for watching! Kind regards,
David and Connie
Sei molto bravoooo, complimenti! Elena
I enjoy your work how do you frame this
may I know the surface ?
incredible :o
Thank you! Kind regards, David
Do you paint on water color paper? And do you gesso before using oil? When you make it very fluid only using oil, does it not take forever to dry?
I loved this demo! But...I am left with some questions: 1. Oil tube paint and linseed oil? Then what did you did the brush into to make things "drippy," as you stated? 2. I realize this is a sketch, but to many of us it would be a finished painting. But what was it painted on? Watercolor paper, which I think would eventually succumb to the oil, or linen? I don't think you said what you're painting on.
Thank you, it's a terrific video!
Brian
Peace and harmony being the chief construct.
Luv it sir..
Dear @MrChromio - Thank you very much for watching and for writing to us! It means so much to us to hear from you. Good luck with your painting. Kind regards, David and Connie
Please disregard my question about what you are painting on. I should have read the comments. But...what your medium is???
What are you painting on? Linen? Canvas? Paper? This looks like cloth of some sort, but thinner.
