    That's a nice and concise lesson, thanks! The finishing touches in white really elevated the whole portrait! Guess I'm gonna use the showcased techniques but make my painting more symbolic instead of a portrait. I'm using a 60*80 cm canvas on cardboard as the base and it's been a long time since I last used such a large format to paint on, so I'm pretty psyched!

      @mygeekfamilycotton  2 года назад +1

      Eh non… il y a tellement de moyens de commencer… c’est difficile de cerner les niveaux de chacun. On peut arriver à la peinture par le dessin, la sculpture, l’abstrait ou le figuratif… à travers ces mini-études des différents styles, j’essaie de rappeler certaines bases (théorie des couleurs, perspectives… ) mais c’est vrai que c’est surtout pour forcer à sortir de son petit train-train et explorer ses propres limites, plus que pour vraiment apprendre. Je ne suis ni un professeur, ni un artiste professionnel…

    I would have like to have heard why Basquiat used these techniques and symbols in his paintings, but nevertheless I like this tutorial a lot. You did a great job breaking it down into manageable pieces, especially for folks like me who are learning the basics. Thank you for the tutorial :)

    • @mygeekfamilycotton
      @mygeekfamilycotton  3 месяца назад +1

      Thank you! Yes, that is what I was saying in my latest video about Rothko: the essence of these little videos is to focus on the painting techniques to see what we can use in our own. And it doesn’t work so well with modern painters who focus more on the meaning than on the technique… but I’m happy you liked it!

    • @mygeekfamilycotton
      @mygeekfamilycotton  Год назад +1

      Hi Theo! I believe you could use oil, with some adjustments. The main issue I see is that oil will take a much longer time to dry, so you will need to wait before you do the next layer. But, other than that I think you should be ok!

    • @mygeekfamilycotton
      @mygeekfamilycotton  Год назад +3

      Thanks for watching! To be honest, I also have an issue with the more abstract paintings because they usually rely more on the meaning and the intention of the painter than the techniques (as opposed to figurative paintings). By only copying their techniques, you can get the envelope but not the letter hidden inside… on another hand, you kinda « replace » the message of the original with your own feelings (through the Color harmonies, the shapes…), and that makes a completely original piece? Not sure…
