Lots of questions about my palette! It’s the EDGE progear large paint book and a tripod that I thrifted
Lots of questions? I saw maybe two questions.
Thank you and Shannon for telling the truth about being a full time artist, it's a breath of fresh air honestly💯 I've heard so much delusional b.s. in the past few years about becoming full-time, our teachers were right day job for the win lol😩😂 Thanks for this insightful video, I really want to take her class!
Thanks for listening🩵
Her smile when you finished her sentence "Love and Passion" 10/10
Love what she said about different mediums cause using water colors is easy but mastering it is probably one of the most difficult things
Acrylic was similar for me. For a long time, i thought that painting was extremely difficult because i only tried Acrylics. But then i bought some oil color on accident and never looked back. There is just something about Oil that makes it so much more pleasant to work with. Water color and Acrylic both need to be aproached with this layering mindset, but with Oil, you can just do whatever you want.
@@gclip9883 Acrylic you can add to it so it stays wet longer and is more like oil...oil is great for more organic brushwork because it takes forever to really dry so you get the very nice blends etc. However you can't layer it nearly as fast as acrylic, eg you could do a cartoon/anime with gouche very fast comparatively
I like hearing that everyone has an ugly stage. Following through with my paintings has always been hard. Mainly I'll have an idea. Then getting to the ugly stage I won't like the direction it's heading. Following through to a finished piece isn't always rewarding. But sometimes it is.
Yes!
I agree. There's a trust element I lean into in the middle of a new painting that keeps me from getting discouraged during the ugly stage.
Thanks so much for bringing Shannon on. She is so sweet, humble, and mastered such a wonderful skill in representational realism. I'm a new fan for sure, and will totally purchase the full length demo!
Slew is breaking the roof of artistic content, that's a level of transparency we all need to improve the community at all points
WE LOVE PAINTING!😍
WE LOVE PAINTING RAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
What Pochade box is Shannon using @1:15 if you happen to know?
I haven’t had one of those oil painting discussions in a long time, since my college days. It was a great conversation to watch. Thank you for sharing!!
This is fantastic. I ordered her demo right away. I love Shannon's work and have one of her Laguna Beach paintings in my living room. I'm so happy she is painting for herself. It makes such a huge difference. Thanks for offering this demo and showing off Shannon's wonderful talent. I have to agree with her on the trans red oxide, although I will always think of it as BBQ sauce now. 😆
I am sure Shannon learned a ton from doing those commision pieces from shipping to scheduling to invoicing and most important expenses and taxes. Commisions are much easier if you have learned to paint what you love and only take commisions in that field. Also a huge thing that trips commisioned artists up is accepting jobs with sub par reference images, it makes the work miserable.
"BBQ", red heads, Slew, and painting.... greatest vid of all time, I dare say? ----- transparent red oxide is great for both landscapes and portraits as Shannon so eloquently shows us in the latter. Versatile and beautiful.
That was lovely Slew! I'm kinda' wishing I lived closer than Eastern Oregon... I will be purchasing this demonstration. Thank you and the artist, very much for having it available. As always, thank you for sharing your time, your vision and your amazing adventure.👍🤟🪡🎨
You are so welcome! Thanks for the support
So cool. I see a ton of art videos on TH-cam but her work is really rock and roll. It’s got so much soul to it, a spirit.
Love that you got Freddy to model! I’m at the grand central atelier, and he’s a wonderful model. So friendly and kind
He’s the best!
I know a lot of oil painters, including myself, who are trying to pick up a little bit of watercolor painting because it’s so easy to travel with. Most of us have found it a lot harder than oil or acrylic.
💯 agree the cost is prohibitive for oil, it’s the reason I don’t know how yet 🤷🏻♀️We can play with many other mediums for the cost of a tube of oil 🤣. I got lucky earlier this year and ran across a clearance bin of oils- under $2 apiece, so now I have a nice little assortment to learn with
Just finished the video and I’m still feeling hyped about “if you’re knew, I’m slew”
Slew, your opus is amazing, and I love your spirit.🥰
we do love painting
always such high quality content from you Slew!! Killing it, thank you!
This was a special video. I think it's one of my fave. It's just so wholesome the way you guys talk about painting. It's inspiring =)
I get the commissions thing, been a professional for over 20 years and I've only taken on a few commissions. But I've been lucky to sell everything I paint without needing to do commissions. Could never think about going back to a normal job, that'd be unbearable. I'm at the easel 12 hours a day, 7 days a week. Nothing I like more. 🙂
I have been watching you for years and I just love this channel and it really makes my day to see likeminded artists just enjoying their craft ❤
I just wanted to chime in and say that being an artist full time is a real thing. But anyone who is a full time artist (which I am) will tell you it is not easy. I work in every medium, trying to be as diverse as I can be, and not burn out. (Sculpting being one medium I have yet to tackle but will eventually). The thing is as a full time artist, you have to commit. Commit to cranking out art of your own choosing to do art shows, commissions, and envy other reason that you need to make money. Even teaching at times, but I’ve kept that to a minimum, only because it keeps me from painting more. Yet I have no problem passing on what I’ve learned, but as you said Sam, you are doing less painting due to all the other things that you do. Once you get away from painting full time, it is very hard to get that time back to paint.
So for those out there who don’t want that day job to pay for the habit of painting, or just to live, work hard at your talent. Learn the business end of being a self sustaining artist, and get your social skills on, because you will need them.
Loads of information from this video, all of which is useful for the full time artist, or just the artist who wants to paint for the shear passion of painting. ❤❤
Shannon is an incredibly motivating artist❤Love this interview
Let’s go Shannon!!
i don't have a day job and im a full time dad/artist. It is pretty amazing and im lucky
yo i loved this!! She seems like a total delight to be around, and the part when she was talking about the ugly stage hit home. My last video was pretty much ALL ugly stage lol. Also the part about having a flexible work from home day job hit hard too. So important!! Thanks for sharing bro bro!!!
Freddy is a great model!
I put my daughter through college by doing commissioned work, so basically 6 years of hustling. I kept some semblance of sanity by doing an 'art' piece 2-3 times a year, but still suffered severe burnout. I went a full year without doing any art, and it's been slow starting up again. I thought I was nuts, but you've explained it so articulately. Great video, thank you!
That was awesome!! Thank you Shannon & Slew
That's great! I'll definitely be watching the demo, thanks!
Gorgeous paintings!
I can relate to Shannon's story, cool studio, good convo. Thanks for the inspiration!
Loving your great Studio for the ARTS !
What a cool idea! Can't wait to see more of these
Painting is the best! I need to do more of it
Great video, Slew!
Thanks for keeping Art ( by Humans) alive!
My take away: "The Ugly Stage" 12:30-13:40. I'm not an artist and certainly hesitate to do things out of fear of wasting resources in the starting stage. Being able to acknowledge and embrace "the messy part" is changing my mindset that in the early stages or sewing, Journaling, and sketching, that it is okay if things don't look great, or if I completely botch what I want the outcome to be, because the early stage is the Messy Part.
Thank you, Slew and Shannon, for this video❤
Amazing video and education!
That's a superb painting studio. Wish I lived closer!
Great job organizing this and explaining how you organized it! Kuddos
Great demo.
Great conversation! I think in the end, it's about balance( as a full-time artist). If you have family finding time to create can be extremely difficult with a full time job also. In the end it's finding what works best for you.
Great Studio for Arts !
Yeah, I understand what she is talking about. I stopped doing art for 4 years, because of this same problem. (Doing only commissions)
You should do some kind of painting contest like BBC's Portrait Artist of the Year
Good one, SLEW!
I love to think of artists like Van Gogh talking about their colours like “that’s straight bbq sauce”😂
I love her vibe!
Chef kiss!!! ❤❤❤❤
Just added "attend a portrait demo at studio slew" to my Christmas wishlist
can we please talk about how interesting Freddy (the model) is?! i‘m so impressed!!
She is inspiring. You are too SLEW lol
Awesome to see another Columbus artist that being my home as well.
wow that was pretty cool. Thanks
super dope video man
Dope. 💯
Oil is my preferred medium.
I’m 32 and yes I want to do full time art …that includes bodybuilding posing…cutting hair….fashion etc…art is everywhere and in everything …at the moment I’m driving trucks which uses non of my creative expertise and that’s what’s angering for me cuz the time I’m WAISTING building someone else’s empire that sees me as just a number I could be honing my own craft but it does create a balance an that’s important that’s why I listed all that I’m truly passionate about.
Great video thank you
awesome idea! great studio! damn i live in europe!
I would love to come by and teach a workshop on my process!
Hehe I think I’ve been influence to buy barbecue sauce paint 😋 such stunning artworks, wow wow wow
And she's fine 2, tk you!❤
Small world...the model is also used in a realism live event that I just was part of. As soon as I saw the clip I had to go back and check to see if it was same instructor. Different instructor and looking forward to watching this.
Thank you
I really enjoyed the chat/interview between the two of you. Just wanted to point out the audio issues during that segment, I believe you were getting picked up on her mic. Anyhoo, glad to see that your first artist demo went well, can't wait to see more of this type of content!
Very interesting ❤
Shannon should start a youtube channel! She'll get so many people oil painting 🤩
Great stuff, what easel is being used ? And what tripod
oh dope. went to art school with her. she's good. LCAD has a great traditional art program. Good choice for the artist.
Beautiful painting, plus she's cute af.
I like it😊
I just WATCH art demos and I know who Freddy is. He's quite the famous model isn't he? - edit - I wrote that comment before I watched the entire video and heard you give him the shout out so....yeah. 😉❤
I think that water colors are hard no matter what other medium you started with. There’s a learning curve when moving between oils, acrylic, and a bit with gouache, but water colors are a whole ‘nother animal.
Ella pinta muy bonito
Painting , Movie Editing , Sketching ,
Drawing and Sculpting ( Zbrush )
you can do anything inside this great Room ,
What about adding more Video Game , maybe the Art Game
anyway , that's the Greatest Studio for the Artist in the World
Enjoy , just Enjoy your whole Life for this Great Room , loving your Studio
Even though I liked the video and alla prima is my style and I love it, my dream is to become a full time artist and with that talk you just discouraged the heck out me 😭
Use transparent red oxide @slew!! You’ll love it for portraits! 🎉
Okay okay, I watched this whole video waiting for the demo to start, before I realized it was more of an ad. Love her, love her work, love this drawing, wish I knew.
What is that palette she's using?
Can you post a link to that light and stand you used for the model?
It’s just a generic C-stand!
Any Material can do the Great Arts if you want
because , your Studio is big enough
What palett/easel does she use there? Looks pretty nice
edge pro gear
AYE!!! a fellow Ohio painter!!!
Time stamp 9:20. Who is musical composer / artist playing.
I used to have this mystique of oil painting in my mind. Like it was some finicky, mysterious almost alchemical process of painting. So I tried painting with acrylics first and hated it so much. It dried way to fast, it felt awkward and alltogether frustrating. So I dropped that and moved on to watercolor. I did and still do really enjoy watercolor. There is such a better flow, and it is easy to make adjustments on the fly. There is something intuituive about it that I really like. Then a few years ago I tried oil painting finally. I spent more to get good brushes, but went for the low end paints and canvases ( the 3 canvases for $10 kind). Then I painted along with Bob Ross videos. It was so much fun! I have a very long way to go before I'm a quarter as good as Shannon but if I was forced to choose between oils and watercolor I'd choose oils.
I had a professor that used/taught with water mixable oils and that changed the game for me. Now I recommend anyone interested in painting or oils skip acrylic and start there! Bonus: you can even use regular oil painting mediums with them at a later point, if you want.
WMO's have nothing to do with being able to paint.
watercolour is one of the most difficult one.
Can anyone tell me what device/stand she uses to hold the palette and canvas at 1:16?
It's a Pochade Box but I don't know the brand.
Thank you! 🙏@@Niteraven
@@Niteraven thank you so much
@@thebutterpecanpuertorican7910
I did a little digging and I think I found the exact one she is using. It's Edge Pro Pochade Box. They sell on edgeprogear. They are pretty expensive, starting at a few hundred dollars.
Hello slew I have a question?
Can I ask ☺
Well ,its no surprise that someone with such a stunning smiling face and strawberry blond locks is such a gifted and talented person ....im in !
Who is the most happiness Artist in the World
It's Vincent VanGogh ,
because Art is Life , and Life is Art
Life should be colorful and sweet without any Economic Pressure
everything could be free in the World for the greatest
Artist like VanGogh if it's possible
the biggest enemy for the greatest Artist is the
Economic Pressure just like Vincent
but Arts can let your feeling out of this kind of Pressure
That's Why Enjoy ! Losing your Mind and Go Mad ,
and you can be the greatest Artist just like VanGogh
Why was it not called a Slewdio??
Freddy!
Not new to your channel.
I am really enjoying your journey here.
Yep. Still cool.
Go Slew.
=^.¿^.=...............................
In fact , I am a Artist like you , sir ,
but I don't have the large Studio like you did , that's sad
