    “Throughout the entire portrait painting process you are making choices. Some are going to be good choices and some are going to be bad choices. That’s just the way painting is. We are ultimately aiming to have more good choices than the bad and that can only really come from practice.”
    I needed to hear this. Your video and teaching are excellent. I learned more in this video than I have in many I’ve paid for. Thank you and good luck on your painting journey!

    You're very kind for making a video this detailed. I sometimes like the sketch too much I'm afraid to ruin it with paint but this has inspired me to actually sit and practice gouache portraits... Also I'm usually lazy because pencil sketches are way faster than setting up all the painting supplies and I'm very impatient 😅

    I've been learning and practicing painting with gouache for maybe a year now, by myself, just like I did with pencil portraits, and when I see someone more skilled than me doing the things I learned on my own, it really makes me proud, like "oh my god, I do it the right way." When you picked up that lilac gouache, my eyes widened with recognition!

    How beautiful it is to listen to your narration!
    Your elaboration was like Story Telling.
    It reduced our tension and awkwardness towards our confidence if we can follow you in respect of trying our hand in making of a portrait.

    Oh my, what is not perfect? It’s beautiful and perfect. Art if not hyper realistic it should be an impression, an expression, a symbol. What’s important is to capture the likeness, the mood, and the spirit or personality as much as possible, not exact…. You highly talented and skilled. Thank you for all you share.❤️

    You're handling very well shapes and values. I like also the way you're going to essential. Never tried gouache but you give me some interest for this medium.

    I started to learn more about gouache and saw many people using it with very thin layers with water and then using the thicker paint, but I noticed that you start straight with the thick paint, it’s really interesting! I will definitely try it this way and see if it works best for me! Thank you!! 💗

    • @emhuesart
      @emhuesart  ปีที่แล้ว

      I sometimes start thinner, but other times I dive right in with thicker gouache 😅 I'd love to hear if you end up enjoying that technique! 😊

    This adorable video made it into my recommendations, and I'm so glad it did! I've been falling in love with gouache lately, and I seem to be trying to start painting portraits, but the fear of ruining the sketch stops me, I've only tried doing landscapes from references. Thank you very much for the video!

    I always struggle with the lower rim of the eye for some reason many woman refer to this as "the water line" for applying eyeliner it usually is pink but you still have to maintain the edge of the eyeball if that makes any sense? I rarely see any artists addressing this.
    Thank you so much for this tutorial! I love love love your painting style and you always explain things in a way I connect with!

    Hi! You are a wonderful teacher, your explanations are clear, and the “hints” sprinkled in are a bonus! I’m a watercolorist, experimenting with gouache, on my way to liking it. One question I have. . . why do you choose acrylic based gouache instead of water based?
    Though you said this video was a bit long, I would have stayed glued to the screen even at twice the length!!
    Thanks for your generosity in giving us these videos.

  • @jessicaangelesart

    Wow!! Amazing portrait and amazing video, Em! I learned a ton watching this. Even though I mainly use oils, I still picked up really good tips especially in color mixing. I also don't use black in my paintings, and just mixing raw umber and blue to achieve the darkest colours, so I'm pretty excited when I heard you also do that! Haha! Your tips in choosing reference photos are also very very important! Thank you so much! ☺️🙂
