Painting Like The Masters: Gustav Klimt's Golden Phase
Вставка
- Опубліковано 10 вер 2024
- Learning about artists throughout history greatly inspired my own artwork. Miniature painting itself might not have a long history to draw from, but there are still hundreds of years worth of artists to inspire and learn from. Today we are looking at the Gustav Klimt, the painter of The Kiss and The Portrait of Adele Bloch-Baur

What unique element do you think would be cool on a miniature?
Shapeshifting and/or a changing effect of skin colours!
Fraser-Wilcox effects & other movement optical illusions
This miniature is absolutely amazing and reflects the inspiration so well.. What a cool series.
*This* is inspirational. Along with Dana Howl's brightly coloured haunts-it's so nice to see things outside the little boxes of dirt-encrusted “realism” and shiny knights.
have you seen a Klimt in real life? OMG. i remember being at MOMA NYC and there's one there. People were admiring it, i waited my turn until I was directly in front and then sat down on the ground. Yep, my guess was correct. The gold/platinum catches the down light above and the entire painting comes to life. Completely amazing. By the time I got up five minutes later I had a whole group admiring it on the floor with me.
I unfortunately have not, but perhaps one day!
Mini looks amazing. Would love to see a Space Marine painted like this. Keep up the good work.
Lovely idea...elegant execution. Thanks for making this vid!
I really love this series, I hope you make more
I have Van Gogh up next!
I came to your channel via Raq Rex art and so glad I did. I don't paint minis, but I do paint and make mixed media art. A lot of great information here. I like the dive into art history. :)
Thanks for the vid! It's really interesting to see more classical (if that's the right word) painting/art theory applied to minis. Hope to see more stuff like this :)
I love Klimt
Great tips!
Thanks for the video and triggered thoughts, Lyla! A couple of things come to my mind, and I'll continue walking thinking about them, even if it takes me time to act upon them, but I want to share them back, in case something clicks for you:
- Drawing patterns on fabric, definitely something I want to try at some point, when I'm no longer painting a stupid boardgame piece of plastic. ;)
- Symbolism. While it's almost impossible to replicate the "blurring" of the limits between her body and the environment on a mini in the same way as Klimt did, he takes the liberty of painting areas with something else than the material they're made of, to support a purpose.
- By-product thought you might find unrelated: why don't we have more symbolic sculpts of minis, like we have crazily cartoony interpretations in anime with exaggerated size of some elements (like the fist in a fight, or whatever, and arms a simple thin tube to draw the attention further to the fists and their impact)?
- I've also been wondering for a time how spell effects could further be expressed on minis, because I find them so inspirational in fantasy 2D art. Cartoony depictions of these effects haven't been my thing, and realistic things don't seem to impact minis as much as I'd like... I think there are opportunities and untapped potential here too.
A wonderful day to you.
Great video! I can't say I'm a fan of all the gold, but the idea of using specific animals and symbols to convey something like "pride" or w/e is really cool. I love hearing about these painters and these styles.
Love the series and the idea of using classical art for inspiration. One thing though, your audio volume is all over the place. Dunno if that's on my end or yours, but it's worth watching out for. Keep on it !
I know! This video was shot before I had figured out audio. But thank you!
Great video. Never thought traditional art could be interesting for me
I will definitely this in the future! I love the orginal artwork.
I think Mochi was trying to be noticed more, he's obviously a descendent of Klimt's cat. Thank you for this video! I learned of a new Master I'd not heard of before. :)
I'd be interested in knowing your source on Klimt's inspiration for using gold leaf. I always thought it was because his father was a goldsmith.
Great stuff! Really informative background info and it's a great idea for mini painting
Hi, I am a beginner so this project is way beyond my level but it's very interesting and the final result is stunningly beautiful.
I really liked this video and the one about the Baroque painting style. I think this is a very unique approach to miniature painting and you pull it off very convincingly! Maybe you could do a video about Van Gogh or Caspar David Friedrich? Thanks for providing the insight!
I’m painting a Van Gogh mini for a video right now!
Found your Channel by chance, and fell in love with your video format! Subbed on the way!
Thank you! I'll be uploading my next one soon!
awesome work
Can you make your mic more consistent in future videos? I turned it up because it's quiet and it suddenly blows up at 5:15
Sound is definitely my greatest weakness. I just got a new microphone which should help with the audio quality. Thank you for sticking around while I figure this all out!
