    Cesar Santos is one of the few truly great living representational painters. I am very proud that he studied with us at the Angel Academy of Art, Florence. Bravo, Cesar!!

      Mr. Angel, I was in Italy not long ago but I was not aware of your Academy! I plan on returning soon.What has to be done to insure permission to visit with your or just view the facility when I return? If possible, I would be humbled by a response! Thanking you in advance! Jimi

      Mr. Sutton: just e-mail the academy (info.angel@angelartschool.com) and make an appointment (the office opens again on Sept. 25th). One of our instructors will then give you a tour. Buon viaggio!! MJA

      I live in Tunisia which is very close to Italy but I don't have the money to study art in this fantastic academy. I hope that one day I'll be able to join you.

    César saludos desde Costa Rica, quería expresarte que desde que vi por primera vez tu Sketchbook , cambiaste la perspectiva que tenia sobre la expresion y los colores , lo que podemos crear con nuestras manos, sos increible y sos una gran inspiracion para mí que Dios siga dandote fuerzas, salud y que esa luz de creatividad y vida que se ve a tra vez de tus ojos nunca se apague. un abrazo. a la distancia.

    Hey, Cesar!
    Thank you for posting these videos. You are a "Rembrandt" of the modern age, just like Vladimir Volegov. :)
    I would love to see you paint an animal, like a fox or a tiger. These days Im trying really hard to paint a fox, and my first atempt was frustrating. I started to get too engaged in the details too early on, and the whole prosess became confusing and rather stressfull. How would you approach such a difficult task?
    Love your work, man!!!

    Hi, I'm watching your instructional DVD, and have 2 questions...
    1. To tone down the colour (dead colour stage) you mixed black and white. Can I use pains gray instead? (and mix that with white?)
    2. The yellow ochre pale; can we mix that using yellow ochre? And what do we addnto het the pale colour?

    • @santocesart

      Just measure bigger areas and walk your way down to smaller and more precise measurements.

    @latination2013 7 ปีที่แล้ว +7

    do you always let layers dry before applying 2nd and third layers?

    • @santocesart
      @santocesart  7 ปีที่แล้ว +6

      Yes, all layers should be let to dry.

    • @raduapp123
      @raduapp123 7 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      It depends of the the colors, the thickness and the medium you use. For instance, if you use Liquin and the thickness of Cesars layers I would say it can dry in maximum 2 days. If you use Linseed oil you can wait for 5, 6 days, maybe even 7 for the thick layers. There are more mediums that you can try and they will all react in different ways.

    @ Cesar Santos
    Bro, your work is beautiful, and if you saw what I could do right now, you would know it wont take too many years for me to catch up to you in terms of talent aka the illustrative illusion of reality. However I don't pretend to hold a candle to your talent at the moment. But I have been perplexed in my mission as an artist and I hope to challenge you with this question. What do you have to say to those who posit the composition question? You know, the ever-present decorative corollary to representation? How do we elevate our selves to the level of the "Historical" paintings of Caravaggio, Raphael and Titian? Where symbolism, Color and Illustration are balance into a symphony of paint (or other medium in terms of Michelangelo's Pietà or The Rape of Proserpina by Gian Lorenzo Bernini)? How does one marry the insight of the classical realist with the insight of the Post & Abstract expressionist? Where is the line between artistic liberty or abstraction and faithfulness to the forms in the platonic ideal? I don't know if you have the answer, and I certainly don't have it ether. But if you look at the The Conversion of Saint Paul by Karel Dujardin or the work of Jean-Honore Fragonard you would know exactly what I mean.

    • @santocesart
      @santocesart  3 ปีที่แล้ว

      Hi, thanks for the thought.
      What is missing is culture. Art is the fruit of a certain cultural tree. Some artists point at fruits of the past to hang them in our present tree that grew from a different soil. If we want those good fruits we gotta start nourishing ours from within.

      suburban homestead looks fresh and intense when well done, the artist has to control drawing values and color at the same time!!

    • @suburbanhomestead
