I won't claim to know everything about oil painting, but hopefully, thousands of hours in front of the easel over the past decade or so have provided me with some knowledge worth sharing.
How to Paint a Multi-Figure Narrative with Oil Paint
This is the most boastful introduction I have ever recorded. I saw in the analytics of my last videos that I lost about 50% of my audience at the beginning, so I thought I would throw my "credentials" out right away. We'll see if it works. Ironically it is a longer intro than my previous one that lost the views. Ha ha. This was heavily edited to make it as short as it can be. Let me know in the comments if you would like to see some long form content or more shorter bits? Did I mention I love comments?

Oil Painting Quick Tip: How to Put Any Color Anywhere
มุมมอง 4.3K3 หลายเดือนก่อน
This is a short explanation of a basic principle that I think every painter should know. Maybe you already do? Let me know. Btw, once the painting in the video is finished (soon) I will release an entire video about it.

A quick explanation of a basic principle. Join me in progress of an unfinished work that is 44"x46" (not 64" as I mistakenly said at 5:30ish). Thank you to all previous likers and commenters, this is for you. More comments always welcome. I try to respond to all.
How to Oil Paint Creatively with Imaginative Realism
มุมมอง 2.9K7 หลายเดือนก่อน
This is the first time that I cover pretty much the whole process of creating one of my artworks, from sketching, to building, photographing and painting. I give away all my secrets (haha) in this small 9"x12" composition full of juicy details. Listen to me admonish young impressionable minds with my off-the-cuff firebrand mouth words.
Quick Tips for Details - Learning from Old Oil Paintings
มุมมอง 86210 หลายเดือนก่อน
This is the first time I have ever uploaded a real-time, off-the-cuff painting video. It is for the fine people that attended my Level 2 intermediate classes at the McTavish Academy of Art in North Saanich, British Columbia, Canada. And of course anyone else. The painting we study is called Evening Winter Landscape by German/American Artist Carl Schultze (1856-1926).

I had this footage on my iPhone for quite some time now, so I thought I would upload it as a video. The first one without any music. Maybe that's suitable - for in some ways, it is on a serious note. When I first uploaded this painting to my website and instagram in early 2023, I really felt like it did not get the attention it deserved, relative to my other posts. Even though it was a small pa...

Oil Painting Fine Detail - My Musings Whilst Doing So - The Mood Collector First Video in Two Years!
มุมมอง 1Kปีที่แล้ว
I've had this footage from about two years ago sitting in iMovie. I finally got the chance to try narrating while painting. This is fuelled by reactions so please feel free to leave comments. Near the end, I start to mention one of the strongest reasons that I feel Imaginative Realism is the most exciting genre of contemporary oil painting. Music by Nuisance at Freemusic.org
Paint Vlog 2. Necessary self criticism.

Here in my second paint vlog episode, I start to convey an honest feeling of how I look at my own work when it is nearly complete. Strange feelings and all.
Paint Vlog 1. Finishing detailed areas with textural patterns.
มุมมอง 6433 ปีที่แล้ว
While working on my "corner cutter" painting, I thought I would share some ideas about using patterns to convey texture and form. This is the first video where I am experimenting with a quick "off the cuff" recording style. Rather than overdubbing, I have used the mic straight off my Pentax K3 camera. As always, I love to hear feedback.
Ideas: How Doth they Arriveth?

In this final episode of my Guest of Honour painting series, I try to focus on the ideas component of painting. I'm really not sure and kind of apprehensive about uploading this one. Thank you in advance to anyone who is open to experiencing "with me" and not "at me" haha. After recording, I realized that there is so much more that I wasn't able to cover here. This is the tip of an enigmatic ic...

Oil Painting Techniques - Small Brush Considerations
มุมมอง 1.2K4 ปีที่แล้ว
One cannot improve at painting with technique alone because technique is inescapably connected to our personal philosophy. Why spend so much time? Join me in this journey while I narrate in my "off the cuff" style about customizing the thickness of wet paint and start to get into the "why" questions of what is valuable about this type of painting process.
