Thanks for the reminder of this method of painting from a black and white photo and getting the shapes and tones from the photo, but making the colors from imagination. It's a really interesting way to paint.
Robert one can use any colors for this exercise but it’s good to remember that warm colors will bring the form forward while cool colors will push the form away. Or warm color for light Areas and cool tones for shadow.
Excellent! When you applied that orange tone for the highlight, I actually got excited! You inspire me to make wiser choices with palette and not be afraid to try new things...one day, I'll be as loose as you...Thanks so much for sharing with us.
this but it looks like a dumpster and tastes like a dumpster with that much space and that small of a canvas only details can safe your artwork it looks tasteless, messy and amateur-like
When you're a painter, a drawer, you constantly squint your eyes while working.... you get a more global view of your image, of what is going on. Try it sometimes while looking at such vid', and you'll see clearly and earlier the portrait appearing. ; )
Probably the best portrait demonstration on ''TH-cam'. A great example of starting off right! i.e. 1/. Subject on left (for a right handed artist), 2/. Working from outside in and having your paints on the right. All makes for a perfect demonstration from a great artist. Thank you.
@@snufkinsfanboy5649 Hi Max, Do not rest your arm on or near the page, step or sit back if you want to rest or relax. The hand and arm must be free in order for you to interpret your natural movement and style. Think about it! Good luck.
Do u ever spend like an hour on a painting and you're still only halfway through and you look at the reference and back at your work like wtf how is this ever going to work? And then you figure you might as well keep going, worst case scenario you make it even worse but it doesnt matter it's just paint on a canvas. And several hours of your precious time. But at least you got practice. ***Not to say this is bad this is obviously very very good! Just halfway through working everyone's paintings always look really messed up lol that's when I start getting scared that it won't work out.
I have long been a huge fan of the green/purple/orange concept (yellow/blue/red have too powerful a lobby) and I work them into my portraits whenever I can. My favourite secondary grouping comes from Old Holland's exquisite range of oils. Sap Green Lake Extra teamed up with Ultramarine Violet and Scheveningen Orange works a delight. I also like the muted offbeat green/yellow/blue/red foursome of: Oxide of Chromium/Naples Yellow/Indigo/Indian Red which, as a combination, is quite unusual but those shades have a empathetic synchronicity that works very well.
It started looking like a face, like her, even, so early on, I'm amazed. (Or at least it felt like it) You're so skilled amd the piece you've created is stunning.
I found it incredible that your initial layout of the page was so simple and then you launched into hitting areas with value that quickly And yes, that orange highlight on the left was incredible
i think this is really cool. i was worried about the greyness of the skin until you added the orange reflective light and wow that really made it take form. i so wish, however, that some of the shadows were cooler instead of being so warm. like the shadows in the right side of the face next to the hair. i feel like those shadows would benefit being cooler and less orange. still a very interesting piece and definitely something that i’d like to try :)
It's so fascinating how at first it's just colour andthen suddenly it becomes a person, and you can't unsee it.. like with the highlight, I was first unsure and then it just became cohesive
you never fail to amaze me. I love your work. True professional. Your art is stunning and it always makes me want to pick up my brushes and paints. Thank you for sharing your talent and skills.
Bravo!! I will admit, when you grabbed the orange, i tightened up. Anybody els feel that? I would have never thought to go in that direction, with the greyish green earth tones. But nicely done sir👌👏🔥🔥. Once the orange was in play, I was committed to watch where this goes. I had to stay and watch til the end. Its impressive to watch the process come to life in front of my eyes. 👏 I might explore this technique myself. It definitely doesn't look "easy", but I might surprise myself. The take away from this video is be bold with colors.
This is absolutely amazing, great job! Keep up the amazing work, this is the first of you videos I’ve watched and I am excited to see more of your artwork!!!
The painting looks so cool! I had to turn the music off though because it was really distracting and had a really odd time signature and was all over the place Other than that though, awesome job!
All I could think was how infuriatingly careful you'd have to be to paint with such a big brush on such a small canvas. Such a bold choice. I think if I ever get oils I'd have to paint more impressionistically, like this, bc damn I can't stand waiting for things to dry 🤣
Poweful colors choice.. the secret was how you got the mid grey's tonalities concentrating on getting clean mixtures out of complementaries. It was even enough with orange and dark green. This was a very great video and great color comprehension. I believe that u did not use pure colors.. u always put a minimum touch of the complementary even in the highlight. Why do you prefer the wood panels rather than the canvas?
Thank you. I prefer hardboard because of its smoothness. At this small scale, the canvas texture is very distracting and can buffer detail. If I worked larger, it wouldn't be as much of an issue.
@@LarrivaArt I like the smoothness. Sometimes I use plastic coated paper to paint over on small scales. It works as well, how ever the effects is a bit different.
Its really good but it kinda looks unfinished... Its probably just the difference between our art styles though. My favourite part is when you used the bright orange to highlight... I got so excited...

@@luna-kiva That's a good point. Out of all the colors in general it seems like yellow looks the lightest, and blue and purple looks the darkest.
Robert exactly! 😁
Omg yess

Devan Carpenter not too loose ;)
Devan Carpenter I scoffed at this comment until the part came on for me 😭
Painting has that same quality as cooking where it looks like a dumpster fire until it comes together and suddenly your amazed.
this but it looks like a dumpster and tastes like a dumpster with that much space and that small of a canvas only details can safe your artwork it looks tasteless, messy and amateur-like
Rafik the only thing tasteless is your trash personality
@@rafikplz u and ur 12 subs can fuck right off,id like to see u paint something better
You're**
I found this hilarious
On a side note the music is real dank and smooth and shazzy, like a Monday morning that is a public holiday. It’s real yea thank you
What a great way to describe it
That orange highlight casting onto her face is beautiful
The music makes me feel like I’m in Hobby Lobby
Gpaige you are
Me the whole time: i cant see it. I cant see it. I cCANT SEe ItT. I cant se....
I saw it
Same, my dude.

@@mrirurfkjsdo Cool. I wear glasses and take them off and on during these videos to see the differences.

Daniel McGowan I prefer paints on my left side so that when I rest my hand or move around the page or something I don’t get it in the paints on my arm

This was a pleasure to watch from start to finish. Especially when you added the orange rim lighting.
i full on panicked when you first added the orange highlights but the payoff was worth it! thank you for reminding me to take risks

Amazing! I can't believe how soon the girl took form! Your use of big brushes and daring shapes was truly inspiring. I absolutely love it! ❤
Fantastic work again, you inspire me to paint every time

The highlight shade got me woowed...the painting is awesome
wow, that orange highlight blew my mind a little bit. thank you for the inspiration, friend!
This is already sped up but I still watched it in 2x playback speed .....but anyways this looks incredible it's so good!
Wow this painting is so inspiring, seeing you be so experimental and taking risks, instead of being tied down by your reference photo ❤

I'm taking so much inspiration from this, its incredible!!
Magnificent, a delight to watch

Finally with some good sound
fantastic piece, thank's for sharing.
I love this so much- especially the style and the colors used ❤️ I also love the music
you never fail to amaze me. I love your work. True professional. Your art is stunning and it always makes me want to pick up my brushes and paints. Thank you for sharing your talent and skills.
the whole process of putting in highlights and shadows i was like i cant see it but it turned out to be such a beautiful painting
Light harmony is really nice in this one.
I am sooooo impressed with how you expressed the values in this piece!!!
I really liked that orange glow, made it look like a sunset was shining on her :)
Have such a big ol crush on your art it ain't even funny.
Amazing. Just... wow.

Colours remind me of those paintings from the 60's. One being called , " The Green Lady".
I was expecting photos realistic painting but this one is also cool 😉😉
This is absolutely amazing, great job! Keep up the amazing work, this is the first of you videos I’ve watched and I am excited to see more of your artwork!!!
Amazing. So nice colors.
I just wanted to say you are a very skilled artist. Your work is beautiful.
Respect for using flathead mostly . Wow
Nice color
It's such a warm tone!
It was already better than I can do at 10 seconds in!
Bravissimo! Mi piace moltissimo il tuo modo di dipingere.
just started folowing you on inprint and then this shows up on my youtube.
The eldritch blood sacrifice is working!

Great work!!

I just discovered your channel... I remain speechless.
*starts with green*
Weird color but ok
Love the music too. 🎤🎹🎧
The painting looks so cool!
I had to turn the music off though because it was really distracting and had a really odd time signature and was all over the place
Other than that though, awesome job!
Sounds like the music is in 4/4 though
El Amiri It just had a whole bunch of craziness happening 😂
Excellent portrait 👌Thanks for sharing.
So incredible!! 👌🏻❤️❤️❤️❤️😀😀😀
Your art is such relaxing to watch
I am a Muslim man and my country is Egypt. I hope to accept to be your friend and I swear that I do not bother you at all
Awesome
Just great!
Amazing! earned yourself a sub for sure.
*Ohhh....amazing...it came out extraordinary*
Freaking beautiful

So this is what being good at something looks like

Magical!!!
That was huge
You're really talented!
I hope you know how freakishly talented you are

Admiro a esas personas que dibujan con el pincel
Best art.
Súper gracias desde Mancha Real Jaén España
You gave her a black eye. Well done. Jk it's lovely
Those are the good pigments :3
Spared no expense.
i see you everywhere i swear
@@AshCatBlueCat Are you talmking aboot me?
Wow! 😱😱💖
It's seems like to be easy, but it doesn't)
This is amazing but it gives me anxiety seeing how much paint you had on your pallet. It looks like you emptied a whole tube of paint for each color
Gotta break some eggs to make an omelette. I will end up using the paint in future paintings. Oils last a long time when covered.
Its really good but it kinda looks unfinished... Its probably just the difference between our art styles though.
My favourite part is when you used the bright orange to highlight... I got so excited...
