In this tutorial you can see step by step the copying of a Caravaggio, about 20 hours in a 17 minute clip.
It is painted in oil with the original pigments of this time. My palette was:
Lead White
Yellow Ocher
Venetian Red
Vermillion
Red Lake Natural (dark)
Burnt Siena
Umber Natural and Burnt
Van Dyck Brown
Black Roman Earth
Natural Iron Earth
The size of the painting is 81x110cm (32x43in). I applied a thick oil bound ground to have a non-absorbant surface. During the painting I use only some fast drying oil, no solvents or things like that.
Two short parts of the video are unfortunately in a bad quality. This are parts of the livestream.
Take time to watch the video, I hope you enjoy!

I'm very new to oil, I'm only 16 with dreams of having art be my full time job. I've only been painting for 4 years and got quite decent at it. During the quarantine, I learned how to oil paint through different videos and I sometimes get commissions, but only through family members. Caravaggio really inspired me these last few weeks. I've been watching these studies at home and at school once I have free time. I'm determined to have my own unique style like him. I really enjoy art like this, I don't really like the art today.
2 years later, how is this coming along for you?
good luck … its difficult af 😢😭
Good for you loving this kind of painting style. As for ‘ your own style’ don’t worry about it , style develops. You don’t create it. Be honest and true with your work, your ‘ style’ will come naturally. Also painting today can achieve the same results without going this method. It is not how you paint, it is what you paint. Good luck
Also go look at the original.
I’ve been looking for a channel like this for a while, years actually, such a dope process to finally see in real time
I may suggest an italian video, if you like

Well, 20 hours in 17 minutes
No kidding ,I’m two minutes in and I’m loving how he shows the process
Highly instructive
This is a fantastic study...I learned a lot, thank you...Caravaggio was so incredibly gifted
Remember that Caravaggio never sketched before he painted though. So this is historically inaccurate from the start.
@@EvilThunderB0lt , you're right that Caravaggio didn't do preliminary drawings or scaled transfers like a mere mortal, but he did sketch directly onto the canvas with paint and incise or scrape outlines into the grounds, which it looks like this very brave man did, but didn't film because how it got the incision outline 1:1 was likely not free-hand like Caravaggio. I'm just happy to see the true masters studied by artists in this day and age. Raphael, Michelangelo, Caravaggio...it takes a lot of guts for a talented artist to even approach the works of these greats--I can only salute the daring and say God bless! Lead the way!
I love the music. Exciting and invigorating. This is how Caravaggio painted- white underpainting, then adding glazes or just over painting after that layer dried. Nice, one wonders how he painted so many works. Essentially he painted everything …twice.
Amazing to see the layers build. What incredible skills. I have seen caravaggios in the flesh and they are a wonder on the eyes. Realer than real. Almost 3D. You do great tribute to these works
I'm not an artist. No artistic talent whatsoever, so I live vicariously through those who have been blessed with that skill. It's so interesting to see how Caravaggio, who happens to be my favorite Baroque artist, created his masterpieces. So beautiful.
anyone caan learn it, the 'born with it' is a myth. You'll need patience though and always push yourself
Talent is a learned and earned skill, rarely if not never are we born with talent, it is always earned through hard work. Can’t get good at something if you don’t try. 🤷🏼♂️
thats bullshit, the only thing you need to do is be interested in art. there are so many many options to grow in, not necessary painting. find your sensibility, one professor told me: erase what you know til now and start again. so find your inner you when you express your drawings or projects, let your hand slide through paper freely. dont compare to anyone, i know now it is terrible because the loads of information but no one can be you, you are unique and there is no other you in this planet. give it a chance.
Dawg, tbh, its taken me three years to get good at art. The only thing stopping you from becoming a master is money, time, and determination. Which, tbh, you dont even need money anymore, there are so many artists I know who make their own supplies since quality paint and brushes can be hard to find.
There is no such thing as artistic talent. If you want to pearn to paint, you can learn it! Just like I am.
Look at how delicate the shadows in the folds of cloth are!!! This is wonderful, thank you for this channel.
Caravaggio was his own worst enemy, the dude was nothing short of being the perfect painter, however his own ego and rage got the better of him in the end. Who knows how many more masterpieces he would have produced. RIP to the outlaw artist
You can't split his ego from his art. What made Caravaggio unique wasn't just his technique, but his violent urge to express himself. His craziness and his talent were deeply connected.
Thankyou for sharing ! That's precious. And the music is also great. 😍
Art school never prepared me for the absolute glory of what human hands are capable of creating. As always, in absolute awe of the masters, and all who follow their own tune. Thank you for the vid
@Bryce Thibodeaux you can't learn painting from internet. You always need a master not a video. That's very important, video are not interactive.
Also I don't know where are you from but in Italy we have a lot of art schools and we learn from different masters. You learn a lot of things like different techniques but also you learn the poetry of painting. Have nice day 👋
@Bryce Thibodeaux let me make you a question... Are you an artist? Have you studied art's disciplines or aesthetic philosophy?
@Bryce Thibodeaux you make it much easier and simple that really is making art. You don't learn techniques and do it. That's bullshits of American aesthetic that everyone is an artist and can make art in fact most of American artists have never studied art or studied in art academy. Most of their works are only the copy of ancient masters like Pollock, Warhol and Basquiat. Now I want to teach you a thing: art is not a simple hobby that, after returning from work you sit and make it. Art is complex and you need to study, you need to go to art school (also I see American art school but trust me, Italian and French art school are much better.). For example in Italian academies, where I'm studying, art is very respected because it's so hard, you don't have the idea, learn the techniques and make it. Art is not only that, art is philosophy, you need to have skills. So if you think that's what I'm saying is "the voice of a slave" you really have not the idea what art is.
@Bryce Thibodeaux Also, you spoke about some artists who became famous and successful without studied art in schools. Look at the differences of art history: in Italian renaissance everyone studied from different masters like Verrocchio, they make a very impressive naturalistic art. Can somebody paint as Leonardo or Caravaggio, studying only on internet?
Now a days is quite easy to make art, concept art make everything simple but the difference from a talented artist to a mediocre one is the foundation of art philosophy, what you learn. I told you this because I now a lot of mediocre artists that have studied on internet and they where so focused to become respected. Everyone of them now have changed work.
Another question: if you have the tools to grow up, the possibility to expand your knowledge, why don't use its?
Also we can make an example: Van Gogh is a self made artist. Now a day he is one of the most famous painter.
He is famous but it doesn't mean that he was a capable artist. Look at his way to paint or maybe to draw: he is quite mediocre but what have make him famous was his life, very sad, and his poetry.
Since the beginning I told you about the poetry of painting but, what you can learn from schools, professors and masters are the techniques. That's true. Also not only the technique make you a capable artist, but, let's make the differences between Ludwig Kirchner and Otto Dix. Who is more impressive?
@Bryce Thibodeaux of course I'm not, also I know that I don't speak with a genius of noble arts. If you don't want to use your tools to improve that's not my fault. Most of the greatest mind in history received an education.
Also who said that I don't educate myself?
Man you are very braggart.
Give me your profile I want to see your cleverness.
Background music is awesome I’m playing guitar along with it. The Painting is unreal!
So kind of you to share this technique. Beautiful work.
Remarkable! Thank you for sharing your incredible talent with us!
imaging Caravaggio listening to this music while doing the painting back in his century, would have been amazing !
Pretty cool. Glazing skin tones is something I did naturally helping my self achieve a color in layers. Didn’t know it was an actual technique.
Formula Juan. Transporting and setting a stone upright, a standing stone, is a 5.000 year old technique. Glazing is done with linseed oil or painting medium for oil paint, giving results which cannot be achieved any other way.
You are the best, thank you for this knowledge 🥰☀️
Great painting with music to a 70’s cop show, lol
@N S I agree completely, but the 70’s cop show music had my OCD’s working overtime, lol
Yeah, I feel like I’m watching Serpico.
He's such a good artist that I bet he's also drawn and/or done most or all of his own tattoos.
Stunningly beautiful!
Oh my I'm speechless. I just binged Vermeer and now I'm literally just ...a very beautiful painting. Not how I do my portraits but I will try your technique.Amazing beautiful painting. I'm stunned 🎻
do you upload your portraits?
Thank you, I learn so much practical application watching you! Have a safe quaranteaster!
Сколько выдержки и терпения и точности .
.... Потрясающи. Красиво необыкновенно.❗❣️🔥🌹🌹
Reaaly good to see all stages! Thanks for sharing and inspiration!
You know you are watching an absolute master of his craft when I KNOW that is a paintbrush, on a canvas, putting the finishing touches on a bald head , and yet it looks so 3D realistic I could swear he was painting a real persons head. Astounding work.
Wow! I’m rendered speechless!
Boy! At last one video very very useful! Thank you so much.
Jawdropping work 😱👏👏👏
Love the artwork... absolutely amazing!!!🙂⭐🌟💙
Think great job with a music in conflict with Caravaggio feelings and a profound meditation which could be the ornament of a great old master
The glazing part never ceases to amaze me 😶😶 It almost looks like magic
So talented and beautiful !
this is amazing, I’d love to see a real time shot of your pallette to accompany it 😻😻
I am simply amazed.

How in the world yoko ono claims to be a big artist having these amazing people over here?! I just found this chanel but I am already a big fan!
@i died did you even read it?
@i died because I was watching a yoko video of art where she did nothing and I got these recommended and I commented it.
great video ! good music too
Hermosa pintura
Finally a channel that does good reproductions
Caravaggio is another Planet, but you paint really good!!!
legend
Danke schön 😁
Outstanding!😍🖼
I saw an excellent special about Caravaggio. 👍
Very unique paintings. Kinda macabre.😳 "Beheading of John the Baptist"
Bit of a troubled man. 🤔 But I think that's why I like "David & Goliath".😊 The symbolism of him slaying his past.🗡
Il disegno di per sé è eccezionale
2:28 such amazing brush strokes that the man is tickled
Id like a painting like caravaggio of St. Jude Thaddaeus but where he is teaching a crowd of multitude of people. Id buy one in a heartbeat. Nice work and this was so fun to watch👍
Great........need to know the steps followed in detail as it looks very interesting....
