    I've watched all 7, and will watch #8. Thoroughly enjoy the series. Among other things, the master's dynamism is great in many ways, not least its inclusiveness, passion for art, and non-sappy enthusiasm with the students. He scores an A+ in each episode.

      Cheryl S. These are interesting shows. Just can't imagine painting these in acrylics. Also using the lubricant in the paint instead of something made for acrylics would that cause problems with the paint holding up over time? Wish I could figure out why I can't post a comment I can only reply to another comments.

    Art lesson, history lesson, technique lesson, correction of piece lesson and a good example of coaching, not to mention well written, well produced and well performed. Well done all the way around. I don't know how I could have missed this excellent program for so many years.

    This is absolutely a good example to show painting, he made them step out of their comfort zone and paint something they are not used to paint, the end result is pretty much irrelevant in this show, it's more about the happiness that painting brings rather then making a masterpiece.
    It's not ment as a tutorial for the viewers nor is it a competition to show who's the better painter, this is ment to inspire those who watch it and that it does.

    • @cheers2023
      @cheers2023 3 роки тому

      Yes it's more of a study, rather than tutorial. He does a really good job of pushing the students to get into the mind of the original artist. Such a cool series.

    That looked like the most testing class yet. And I think they all did well considering Renoir's technique is so subtle and none of them had done anything like it before. It shows what a good teacher can do in bringing out the best in a pupil and suprising them with their own abilities. All of them were proud of their achievements which is great. 😊

    • @rudolfo9361
      @rudolfo9361 4 роки тому

      It wasn't so successful when three others tried a Monet-type of painting and had to choose themselves what to paint. This Renoir thing was ready-made. The students just had to apply what clumsy John said and showed to them.

    Amazing study. Seeing how great the masters are be it painting or photography
    can only be seen when one tries it ones self. If one succeeds in any medium it becomes a delight
    and a thing of beauty forever. The thought such a thing may survive decades or centuries is motivation for the work.

  • @sttarch5150
    @sttarch5150 4 роки тому +4

    Everyone should at least try the old masters way of creating the values as underpainting as Christine did, then glaze the final color over it. I underpaint the entire canvas in a color which is the predominant light of the moment- often with Siena. The result is a color that disappears and reappears throughout the final product. This technique was a real breakthrough for me as an intermediate artist.

    I did art modeling for U.C.L.A. off and on for 30 years. Also Barnsdall Art Center and Hollywood Art school. I would do yogic poses sometimes which some of the students love. I am also an "artist" in the old fashioned way (I like doing faces and figures). If a creepy old teacher ever touched me with a tiny brush I would have punched him in the nose. Bloody good show, still...I don't trust people who insist on showing their teeth.

  • @Crossword131
    @Crossword131 5 років тому +7

    For those of you who went #@?! like me, either he misspoke or he's got the wrong definition of opaque. Using an extender that thins out your paint will cause it to become LESS opaque, and more transparent or translucent. That should have been caught and fixed in post production with a voice over. These terms are important, and basic mistakes like this (and a few others I've bitten my tongue over) are a disservice to the brilliant concept of the show and those who are learning from this program as well. (Here's the soapbox back, I'm done.)

I put it on my hands before I work with fiberglass. It fills the pores so you get the 'itchies." I also use it to detail shine the rubber items on my classic auto.

    Forger guy is enthusiastic and people mistake him for being rude but that is just his great positive energy being mistaken. Black dude - like a dark cloud and so miserable. American girl accused of being a lesbian on here should make a decent high-end model and has fame ahead of her. Old chick is the only one who can realistically draw/paint and she is just sweet, down to earth and talented too.

    • @rudolfo9361
      @rudolfo9361 4 роки тому +1

      You forgot to describe the centrepiece, the model. Wasn't she lovely and so forgiving vis-à-vis the old insensitive sensualist? And rude he was: plumpness, she is definitely a plump young woman (the model), not the words of a decent man. And yes, the old chick did great.

    Excellent job teaching Renoir appreciation, if nothing else! I wonder if the mentor used acrylics to forge the masters. I've no problem with the lub jelly holding or not holding ... since acrylics have their own quirky longevity. I'd love to see the forger imitate a Renoir and teach us. Renoir is one of my favs for portraits and figures. I study Renoir repeatedly but never come near his excellence.

    @muskndusk Рік тому +3

    His actions at 12:25 onwards would prevent this episode from ever being shown on television now. The lecherous way he touches her body, without even asking permission, crosses a line. The things he then says - telling the students to make love to her with paint - would also get this programme banned from major tv stations.
    The model is there to do a job of work: modelling, not to be treated or talked of as a sex object.

    Taking measurements isn't going to help if you need to fill the canvas with the model, it's going to make the model as big as she appears to where he's standing on the canvas. Masters are masters because they bend rules or "cheat".

    Doesn't make much sense to me, if they have to use gel to keep it open longer. They might as well have used oils and an alkyd medium. Recreating these techniques in oils is hard enough. Acrylics require a very different approach.

  • @Iloveflowers2024

    What the heck was the puffing blowing thing he did when he was helping Christine with the glazing. Near the end of the video around the 22 minute mark.
    He didn't have to make that sound. It was So inappropriate. Everything else he was saying in the video about eroticism and sensuality, I understand that aspect And I suppose it is relevant to the art in question but then he went a bit pervy, creepy and sexual With making the sound with his mouth. He even apologised for doing it. Ugh.

    Good quality oils go a long way, and they're not that expensive. I doubt they'd be worried about oil paint breaking their budget in a show like this, even if they were stocking up on Old Holland. Mixing is the same for oils and acrylics, pigment is pigment, the main difference is the drying time. This really makes no sense to me.

    • @donnasouthwood
      @donnasouthwood 8 років тому +7

      I don't think he was actually touching the model. I think he was just indicating the direction of the strokes.
      I didn't feel he was going on about the lubricant, the only thing he said about it was that it was used by doctors. I actually thought that was brilliant. Fast drying acrylics are such a pain, and that lubricant is much cheaper than acrylic extenders.

    @angievitale3432 7 років тому +18

    He's really gotta learn how to talk about models with more consideration. "Make love to her" "make her eyelashes more sexy" ....Those aren't terms for learning. Sexy is subjective so it's better to use descriptive terms that are less subjective like longer, fuller, thinner, more round etc... The whole stroking the canvas thing is so uncomfortable. I would not want to be a woman in that class. The connection between model and artist is something sensual for sure, but in my opinion, its on another level from sex. The relationship is the same intimacy of knowing anothers body well without touching. But repeatedly saying "stroke it!" and "make love to her" .....Just no.

      He clarified the sexual overtones of his comments when he said "make love with a paintbrush." It's so different from actual sex it's ridiculous. Women look to be insulted now once sex is introduced into the conversation in any way. I heard what he said in the actual way he said it and didn't read any insult into it at all. He's teaching how to paint flesh for heaven's sake.

      Friend had an egg bound chicken and called for advice. I told her to use some lubricant jelly and try to ease the egg out - She asked if she could use "Astro-glide". TMI.

    Mr960silva,If it weren't called a "Master" class, would you have been less upset? There's still much educational merit to the video. So, don't cry too hard. Did you pay to see this video? Didn't think so. As a beginning painter, I enjoyed this video immensely and would like to see more like it.

      ***** That's probably why I thought it was a mess in my earlier comment because it was awkward and tight and not loose which is a pre-requisite for painting the impressionist style.

      Agreed. Vine coal (my choice) or prick & pounce, I would have thought. To the person who thinks charcoal is messy and pencil is better for it's indelibility... you haven't had much, if any time in the studio.

    Acrylics are not forgiving at all, they dry very fast. There's no medium more forgiving than oils.

    • @Saffirance
      @Saffirance 4 роки тому +3

      I totally disagree. You can paint over any mistakes in acrylic. The quick drying is wonderful. There are mediums that help those who prefer slower drying. Acryics are instant gratification. Your painting is ready to hang 24 hours after completion. Give them another try sometime. You may be surprised

    I would like to see one done on a watercolor artist.. But you do learn a lot about art here, despite what medium you paint in.. I was impressed by his lubricant trick and it was funny that he applied it to this show. He got way to close to the model though.

    It dries quicker which is better for the show, especially when the piece must be displayed in a frame.

    John is a fantastic teacher. It is hard not to take the brush and DO what you are asking the student to do. Drawing it out of the student is an art in itself. All three of them were able to create a recognizable rendition of the model, even though none of them were figuratively painters.🖤🇨🇦

    This is the first episode I'm going to stop watching and just skip. That model is a professional human being there to help you be a professional human being. John's treatment of her and how he talks about her, as if she's nothing more than an object who doesn't have ears and feelings and dignity, is disgusting.
