- Hello Friends!
I have been on a black canvas kick lately and have also been playing around with and art technique called tenebrism. This is my first attempt at trying to create the spotlight effect. Overall, I think it went pretty well although I think I could do better after some practice.
To be honest, I kind of liked it better in grayscale than in color, but maybe that's just me.
Anyway, I hope you enjoyed the video even though I was super congested and sniffled a bit through the voiceover. Tis the season for colds.
I wish you all a Happy Thanksgiving!!! And I am thankful for all of you! - แนวปฏิบัติและการใช้ชีวิต
I love it when you say..."I want to experiment with..." then create a masterpiece. 😕 Your generosity in sharing your process does not go unrecognized. Thanks!
Thank you Michelle!!!❤❤❤
It’s such a striking painting!! Love your choices and how you explain it all!! Another Masterpiece Lydia!!!
Thank you. This wasn't pretentious, and very clear. I am grateful.
Oh, my goodness.....This is stunning...thank you.
I love how you take a reference photo as a jumping off point and just make it your own with a creative twist. That blue/orange combo is a favorite of mine. Wonderful piece! I'd heard of chiaroscuro but not tenebrism so thanks for that info 👍👍 Hope you feel better soon.
Thank you so much Diane! I love the blue/orange combo as well. ❤❤❤
love it all!

Get well soon Lydia. I have been through your earlier videos and watched your work and wanted to say how far you have come. I am just going to say it. I love your work, you know this. I love how you use different techniques and the concepts you come up with. Love the colour combinations and styles. You are really producing some great pieces.

Thank you Michelle!!!❤❤❤
I like your videos very much. Your art is superb! Thank you for it. 💜💜💜
Thank you!!!❤❤❤
Beautiful as always and I think I am going to try a black background in acrylics. I have done a few oils in the past with dark backgrounds, as I love that look too, but I have yet to try in acrylics. You have inspired me yet again, thanks ☺️.
Awesome work! I love it. I, too, enjoy painting or collaging on black canvas. I can hardly stand to use white canvases any more. Thank you for sharing your techniques and I hope you feel better now (from the cold).
your paintings are amazing ❤
Thank you so much!!! ❤
Love the art and process. But I love the art lessons of technique also.
How lucky I had just bought a couple of black canvases. Love the idea of finding a free photo and adding a creative spin. Love the painting ❤ hope you feel better asap.
Thank you!!!❤🤗
So helpful! I just had an epic fail trying to paint on black gesso. The colors disappeared as they dried. Now that I have seen this, I will try again. Thx
When you explain what you do, I am like...oh sure I can do that...when I start trying paint a face...nop...stil not able to paint a face ... I like this mystic paintings and your concepts!
Beautiful, love the concept and imagery, moving from autumn to winter!! 👌🏻🙌🏻🎨💖
I did quite a few horse portraits and nudes on a black surface. I literally felt as if I was revealing the image by painting in the light.
Bonus, the artwork always popped😁.
"Painting by NiQuil".... It's a whole new concept!! lol
Lovely painting, hope youre feeling better soon 😊
Lydia i loved that you continue to explore and experiment. The concept of the shift of the seasons would be cool to try again with all 4 of the seasons. What do you think?
I love that idea!!!😃❤
do you varnish and if so which do you use when there's a combination of oil and acrylic?
Being sick sucks. So……..stop it. Contrasts in the painting works wonderfully. Love the use of term “chiaroscuro” - out of the darkness of obscurity (see what I did there?)
Thank you!! I do see what you did there😁
Love your work and enjoy learning from you. A question? How did you trace your sketch on to the black canvas. Thank you for sharing.
I use saral paper. You can purchase on Amazon.🤗
Really interesting technique! Turned out beautiful! Question: when glazing with oils, what medium do you use and what proportions of medium to oil paint (approximately)? Love this! Thanks for being such an inspiration! 🤩😍🤩
Hi there! I use Galkyd gel medium by Gamblin. I don't really measure the amounts for glazing. I eyeball it til I achieve the desired transparency. A little oil paint goes a long way when glazing.😊
@@lydiabroderick867 Thank you Lydia! I have Galkyd Lite, so I will keep playing with it. 😊
Mam which colour use
Hello! I looove this so much! I found you in hopes that i could learn some tricks to get started on painting on a black canvas. Would you mind sharing the oil glaze you used? I've only ever worked with acrylic paint. Thank you!
I used transparent oil paint and Galkyd gel medium by Gamblin.🙂
Thank you!
How you get the lines of the person on the carvas
Fascinating. It looked like she was wearing a hood, which I really liked, until you highlighted the top of her hair, also if you just glazed the face with oils, wouldn't that part look shiny compared with the rest of the painting
I glazed the other half as well with Paynes gray. I also varnish my paintings, so that makes the finish uniform either way.😊
