Very good tuition thank you. You are an excellent teacher instructing and talking over the whole process of the criation of the painting. Beautifully done.
I’m really enjoying your tutorials. I have a graphite and charcoal artist, and I’ve just started working with different painting mediums. Keep up the good work I appreciate you!
Thank you Donald! Thank you for encouraging me to keep making the tutorials! I am getting ready to make a new one with a loose painting of a Cocker Spaniel. Stay tuned! And...thank you so much for watching! Nettie Kaye
You are very talented. I enjoyed listening to you reasoning out your moves. I'm a watercolorist; but, I enjoy watching all mediums.....especially animal portraits, since that is what I seem to be doing the most.
Thank you Judy! I may actually do a water color here and there. I love all the mediums as well! I am now up to over 85 art videos so there is lots to choose from! Thanks for watching. Nettie Kaye
Love your tutorials! I especially enjoy your presentation....easy going and funny. I would appreciate your instructions on painting cats in oils/acrylics. Thank you for taking the time to encourage me to continue and better my technique....
Thank you Helena:) I am actually planning to do a cat painting after I finish up this week's portrait of a child video! Stay tuned! Thanks so much for watching and commenting:) Nettie K
You are very welcome Cheryl. I hope to do more in the future. Just finishing up the editing on a still life video with sunflowers and a blue vase. Keep practicing!
Thanks, I will! Only been painting 9 months.! I have done over 50 paintings and sold 11 of them! I am a Dog groomer, and thought if I learned to do dog portraits, I may earn some extra $$$ !!
I hope you learn something with each one. Thank you for your lovely comments. They are an encouragement to continue this week with another video. Stay tuned. Should have the next one ready on Thursday evening. Nettie Kaye
It takes a lot of practice, but I think about a few things. The lights have a warmer color like white with yellow and the shadows will be in the opposite range...like purples or violets. I teach a bit of color theory in my academy. If I want to draw attention to an area, or make it exciting, I use complimentary colors. Here are the three basic combinations: Red with Green/ Blue with Orange/ and Yellow with purple. Those combinations will give the most vibrant feel to your paintings.
I may do a special video soon with the various color combinations for different dogs where I will name the colors in oil and acrylic. That might be even more helpful! Thanks for asking. Be sure to take a look at my previous Dog Demonstration Art Instruction Video from 2015. It seems to be very popular and has a lot of information. A slightly different technique.
Stay tuned! I am working on a few new videos that will cover some of the basics. The next pet video will be coming out in a few days. It is a smaller, less "colorful", portrait that may help you:)
Hi Michel, the only thing you can cover an oil painting with is another layer of oil paint. I sometimes cover a mildly used canvas with titanium white and let it dry for a few weeks. The other thing to do is get some loose canvas and re-stretch it over the bars. (after taking off the old canvas. I buy it in rolls. Hope that helps!
I feel like we missed some important steps from the time you stopped filming and came back with the final painting. I need to see how to get from where you stopped to where you ended.
When I started filming for TH-cam, I would bite off way more than I could chew! I chose huge projects that caused me to have to edit out some of the important parts . My current lessons are in smaller bites so that you should be able to learn the vital bits of information. Keep watching. I am getting better every week! Thanks, Nettie Kaye
Gorgeous! Every painting is awesome! Love your talents! Thanks for sharing.
Thank you Susan :)
Good and beautiful dog. I love the colours.

Would love some instructions on technique on drawing these lovely pets in chalk before paining.
Thanks for the posted videos

You need to soften the lines, this painting looks exactly I used to paint in art school
