I love these videos!!! I’ve been wanting to study Mary Blair and Eyvind Earle’s art for a while but every time I sit down and pull out one of their works it’s so easy to get overwhelmed… like, where do you even start? But watching someone break down their works like this is so helpful, and the commentary is great!!! Thank you for this.
Thank you so much for such a lovely comment! I felt the same way looking at their concept art... it took me a while to work up the nerve to try it out. I'm really happy it helps other people feel more connected to what they did. Your comment is so encouraging!
@@children_of_the_craft I love painting portraits in gouache, which is why I came across your channel, but I know NOTHING about concept art or Disney artists. The only thing I do really love when I go there are the gouache paintings for the haunted mansion. They are so perfect and that weird turquoise green color is seriously amazing.
@@ivyclough8969 Oh yeah, the haunted mansion paintings!!! Good call! I have been there several times, and you are so right, the atmosphere is so strong.... that turquoise green. I need to go look up some pics. And I would love to learn more about doing portraits in gouache. It's the one area I've avoided out of fear.
Thank you! I just finished painting a piece of concept art that Eyvind did for the scene “Belle Note” (Lady and the Tramp) that I talk about in this video! It was so much fun to do! Now I have to edit and voice over. Thanks again for the encouragement ☺️ it really helps.
@@children_of_the_craft oh yes another Eyvind on the way! Excited! I think it would be interesting and fun if we did some sort of collaboration video? What do you think?
Just wanted to say that I'm loving your content so much! I really enjoyed your videos on Mary Blair and was super excited to see this one pop up in my feed. I haven't had the time to really paint in forever but these videos have me ready to break out the gouache and just have fun experimenting again. Thank you!
That's great to hear!! If you have a favourite illustration either of them did and you would like me to replicate it, let me know! And welcome to the channel :)
love these videos! Is there a possibility if you posting a non-sped up version? I'm new to painting and would love to learn more from studies of the master's!
I also like that style. It's simple with the design and with the color palette but still gets the point across. I also enjoy the accompanying featurette that comes with "Sleeping Beauty" called "Four Artists Paint A Tree" that goes into the design work of "Sleeping Beauty" of four artists working as a cooperative group, but also contrasts with how those artists (including Mr. Earle) paint a tree based on their own individual thoughts, perceptions and experiences of and with that tree. (And now that I think about it, it probably should have been called "Four Artists Paint A Tree While A Camera Man Is Filming Them" because the camera man was also creating a moving work of art while they were painting.) 🙂
This is wild! I JUST watched that short two days ago! It was so inspiring to each artists' strategy. I think your title is better though... The camera man did a great job! Thanks for the comment :)
Thank you so much! I recommend using illustration board. You can also use wooden canvas, matboard, watercolour paper, or multimedia paper. Because gouache is a "water medium" -- meaning, you mix water with it (typically), it causes lighter weight paper to buckle. I hope this helps!
I really appreciate you told us about his vs talking through your process.
I'm so glad! Thank you for your comment and encouragement :)

This is so good! :). What kind of paper do you recommend for this?
