I started with white on a reddish brown canvas. Mostly two and sometimes three layers are applied. The colours are done in thin glazes, again two or more layers.
The palette for this is simple:
Lead White
Yellow Ochre
Red Earth
Burnt Siena
Umber Nature and Burnt
Van Dyckbrown
Roman Black Earth
Natural Iron Earth
This painting I started on a pre-glued canvas and applied one thick coat of a selfmade oilground. My painting medium is fast drying oil. I take selfmade blackoil or linseed oil varnish. Both let the colours dry within 1-2 days.
The canvas is in originalsize 130 x 90 cm (51 x 35 in).
I am going to try this, with an original. Great job brother 👌🏾
Incredible artists
You have magic hand
21世紀のCaravaggioが何人かおられるのですね？！
Keep it going you're a genius and I think am learning more from you than what I learn at school. Great work #onelove ✊
Can y’all seriously shut up about it not being Caravaggio’s actual technical style of painting the title clearly says he’s copying a piece created by Caravaggio not painting in his style. Stop being so quick to put your noses in the air when takes insurmountable amounts of patience and skill level to even attempt to do something like this. Be glad we are able to see this artists work and his dedication to creation. I’m sick of it. Thank you for uploading this video I learned A LOT myself from watching it 🤩
You are definitely an Artist with incredible patience too. I have a question, After painting the light areas
with white, do you wait for it to dry , before painting the actual colours.
This is not Caravaggio's technique at all. He started with a dark underpainting - possibly raw umber or something similar - over a reddish ground.
You r a monster ...this is art❤️ .. now people confuse shit with art ... I ll try this with acrylic but I'm sure it won't be on your level 🤷♂️
believe in yourself :)❤️
Caravaggio painted very fast. Doubt if he would over worked the area with so much brush strokes as shown here. He is said to have finished 3 figures less than a day. He finished a painting before the sunset so he can go out to eat, drink and be rowdy and even fight.
It depends on what you mean by fast. If you look at Caravaggio's paintings they are full of glazing so he certainly didn't finish a figure in a day and then he didn't come back on it with a second level.
These kinds of portaits could work great just on orange and white
Is it varnished before we make another layer?
I love chiaroscuro.
Unbelievable work you do! I’m an airbrush artist and your videos as well others TH-cam providers’ made me a better painter. I really appreciate you sharing your time and knowledge/experience with us mortals!
I had no proper training but love and passion so bare with me.
I have a couple questions:
1- why every oil painter start with an ocre/sepia background?
2- then, some, will sketch in gray?
3- then cover in white but practically obliterate the white with black before coloring?
I apologize if I’m biased but, judging by your proficiency and some ink you wear, i have a feeling that you come from some custom painting background or have a deep understanding about it. I see that you guys use a wash/glaze as I use the candies on my paintings, forgive me if I’m wrong, and noticed that you paint very light brown hair but turns it into dark based on your subject, any specific reason for that instead of going to the real color straight? To make the nuances to show through?
I try to paint with the real bottom colors like underlaying skin color with flesh color or putting metallic silver if I’m painting something that is metal painted over, to come through and achieve a more realistic result and just can’t wrap my mind around the way you guys do.
Again, I hope everyone here is as thankful as I’m for your kindness!
Thank you!
1- The colour of the ground will shine through and give the person or scenery a warm colour
2- With grey it will become more naturrealistic. Grey dampens the colours.
3- Not sure what exactly you mean.
In this old fashioned style of painting you work a lot with the groundcolour. You let it come through and mix it with the paint. It makes the typical glow as the old masters had.
Can you please say what the ground colour is and may I ask is the medium just linseed oil
I like until white touch, a bit of earth line and stesure... then with the color is getting bad, not expressive anymore.

You are really fantastic!!!... And so generous to share your knowledge with all of us. You are a really great Artist and a very kind person. Thank you very much!
Very good thankyou very mach
Hey can I ask what colors you used for the shading? I am so afraid to use black because all my teachers have advised against it so far, is it a warm black (like mars) or a mixture?
For warm shadings I take genuine van Dyck brown. For darker shadows I take a darker version of it (roman black earth) and for a background black or really deep shadows bone black or ironoxideblack.
Wonderful video!
Hi, congratulations. Thanks for show us your procces. What kind of brushes did you use? Thanks 👨🎨
It's natural black sable hair from the company Da Vinci, Series 1845. I take this brushes during about 80-90% of time.
@@oldmasterpaintings thank you very much master =)
Verey good
ta curtido
Eccellente
Fantastico!
Nice work!
Can I ask, when you lay the first white on ground, do you thin the paint and if you do, do you use thinners or dilute the paint with Linseed Oil ?
The first white I paint often very dry, similar like the dry brush technique. But it also depends on the ground. On an oilground I prefer to paint dry and on a chalkground I dilute the paint with linseed oil. But I never use thinners like turpentine in my paintings.
Old Master Paintings Thank you for your reply, it’s so interesting learning from someone so talented..
you should not be announcing this video as compliant with Caravaggio's technique. You are miles away from his real way of painting.
Para hablar mal mejor no hables
Danke schön 😁
