- This is an alla prima portrait demonstration in oil paint.
This video only shows the portrait portion of this larger painting. Overall it's approximately 5 hours of painting footage sped up so that you can see all the progress occur in less than 30 minutes!
If you enjoy this video please let me know, or if you have questions about this process ask me in the comments, this way I can create more videos that cater to your interests.

Great job, Lacey. Keep posting. This is good stuff!
Shelley Hanna thank you so much!! Let me know if there’s anything you’d like me to cover in a future video!
amazing!
plz show step by step in video
thank you!
Brilliant! Is it really easier to go over darks than lights? And could you please tell me what you used to do your initial drawing, as I'm told that pencil will always emerge through oil.
Patricia Ward When working wet into wet, it’s definitely easier to lighten a color than it is to darken it. This is because it’s very easy to simply add a high value color, like white or yellow, to lighten. But, if you need to darken a color, it’s kind of like you need to *remove* the high value colors you’ve already mixed in. So you end up using a lot of dark color but the high value paints are still in there making everything kind of gray.
Awesome work and teaching; thanks very much. Also, what a great face! And you've created a living image with an expression that is priceless and wonderfully nuanced. I guess you'd have to say I like it and i find myself - impressed. Thanks again.
Thank you so much for the nice comment, Daniel! Much appreciated! I really enjoyed painting him.
Like most of us I started drawing portraits by pencil. A couple of years ago I started painting with acryl and oil (Rembrandt style) and my question is how you are able to get a realistic iris in the eye without going into too much detail and keep the portrait realistic?
I would like to know what medium do you use and how much do you use
Thanks for your detailed reply. I still would like to know what you use to sketch your initial drawing with. Is it graphite (which I'm told always emerges through oil paint), charcoal etc etc?
Patricia Ward It’s charcoal, because yes, graphite sticks to the canvas more and can become visible as the paint layers thin as they cure. The charcoal tends to get brushed away or mix into the paint more, it seems. I use vine charcoal and also charcoal pencils.
@@SchoolofRealistArt hi, I was told yellow stabilo pencils are good too.
