That was exceptional, thank you. Loving how you placed your shadows, I've never seen an underpainting so clearly delineated thank you thank you thank you!
Just saw this, this seems helpful to me so I can understand value. I started to do art about 3 years now, you know drawing, some watercolor painting, and so forth, but I’m still unsure about color and I struggle with putting paint on canvas because I struggle with colors. What do you suggest?
Hi ...thanx for the question....you first do the underpainting so you dont have to think in colors...a good trick to get used to tonevalues is converting colorpics to black and Grey than study the tones VS the colorpic..when i finish the underpainting...the whole paintng is done except Color then the colorglazing starts....theres no mixing on the palet....whd use purecolors but very thin and many layers...this video might help you out th-cam.com/video/K2HjaIMRgnY/w-d-xo.html Good luck
Did classic grisaille painters add a little umber for mid tones. Then work on darks and lights. Then when you get that down start using cools for darks and warms for lights?
Good evening Sir, what's the second video to this one? What's the name of it sorry like the next part of that makes sense? Great Artist you are by the way !
@@atelierrobo wow thank you for you reply! You truly are such a skilled Artist, as a first year fine art uni student I look up to you alot and have so much respect for what you do for the art community! You have helped me so much this semester and gave me the confidence by sharing your knowledge and with out you I wouldn't be able to get to the second stage of my painting which due in two weeks time and by watching your videos pushed me to take risks so Sir thank you!!! 🙏🏻
@@atelierrobo Good morning Sir I don't know how to get hold of you personally so please may I give you my email? I just feel my university doesn't suit me like my tutors don't specialise in what I'm aiming for with oils they specialise in sculpture, pottery, watercolour and abstract and the history of art and I have so many questions. Please may I give you my email? I'm just a young lad eager to sustain a living in what I love and maintain my health.
Hi. Just found this. Great video. I want to ask...is there any specific reason you don’t convert your reference to monochrome/ gray scale to do this? Do you find the tones stay more true when you work from the full color photo on your under painting? I’m wanting try this method and greyscale seems like the intuitive choice but when I think about it it seems like maybe the way work would serve as the better exercise for learning how to pick up on the tone variation in photos. Do you find this?
Hi , great quuestion....you ansewerd your own queston.....I used to convert my reference to grayscale and maybe if you start with this method it will be helpfull but there wil be more tones in de colorreference...converting to grayscele wil take away a lot of tonenuances and indeed a colorreference would serve as the better exercise for learning how to pick up on the tone variation in photos. thnx for the question and have fun trying this method.
Tank you for sharing this video. For me as a beginner this helps a lot. May i ask what you use for the drawing? Charcoal? And how do you prevent the charcoal then to mix with the oil color? Thank you again. :-)
Hello Helmut ....yes I use charcoal....Its no problem that the charcoal mix with the oilpaint it just dissapears ...wich is good ...you don't want the drawing coming thru the painting wich will happen if you seal the drawing ...so it's better to paint it away..
Hi Mellisuga, If you paint wet in wet ....straight with color...there's no need for an underpainting...but if you glaze in layers like the Old Masters...you glaze over an underpainting , check my videos on glazing...Thanx
This is beautiful 😍😍😍😍
that was great.
Magnifique!

If I could develop a propensity to nato maybe my grisaille would improve.
