Hahaha, you know, being French and living abroad, everyone always asks me to do the “inspector Clouseau” accent… but I actually have a very hard time talking like that! 😂😂😂
You've just taught me more about impressionist painting in the first ten minutes than I learnt in two years at art college. You have a lovely way of teaching. Subscribed!
The portrait was excellent, thanks for the tips, I will use in my work, a good week for you. It would be interesting to see a video at normal speed as it is relaxing to watch someone paint.
Thank you Paulo! Yes , I am trying to work on the videography and show more details in a less stressful way… hahaha it is also a learning process… 😋 thank you for always being there!
Fantastic. Thank you. Camille Pissarro had many aspects of influence on others. Perhaps a quick survey of these? Everyone loves a buffet! Wonderful work and pedagogy. Thank you so much.
Before coming into this video I was so freaked out and stressed, but as soon as I heard his voice and the music it just calmed me down so much. Love the video!
I learnt more about painting from this short video than i did at art school, which destroyed both my joy in art and my confidence. Thank you! I can't wait to try this and get into painting again ❤
Awesome instructional video. Ive always loved impressionism art but been intimidated to do it myself. I cant wait to try your methods and love the history of your teaching.. Thank You..
I love your 7 steps lessons!! I want to create a painting right away! You make it so easy to digest the most important concepts. And enjoy your French accent. Please do a Raoul Dufy for another fauvism 😍 thank you so much!!
Can you please do a tutorial on one of Monet's close friends, John Peter Russell? He's one of my favourites and I'd love to see a breakdown on his style!
I really love your tutorial videos. Your instructions are clear and coherent and the close up shots of the canvas are very helpful to me. I would love a real time video to learn your technique as I have never had any training, aside from UA-cam videos, and I am hungry for knowledge. Thank you!
@@mygeekfamilycotton Perhaps a little music might help, but for me, I find it all very interesting. Seeing the close ups of which brush and technique is used to place the paint is extremely helpful and I really appreciate you!
Could you do some watercolor examples? I’d be so.pleased to see the techniques you use. Thanks for your videos - I enjoy them (even though I exclusively paint with watercolors).
Hey! Sure, will try to work on something. If I am not mistaken, I already have a few watercolor videos from a few years ago… but I will work on new ones soon!
Oh my goodness, I have not laughed so hard in weeks! Thank you so much. And I learned so much! My goal is an impressionistic painting of two of my favorite people - my late mother and my awesome mother in law - sitting in the garden at the Bowers Museum in Santa Ana. I'm a flat out beginner and this is so helpful 🥰
It was just incredible !!!! Inspired by this lesson and also tried my version of it ...and was very happy how it turned out...✌️✌️✌️😊😊 Thanks a lot sir !!
Thank you, this was very interesting. I’ve been teaching myself to paint during the lockdown and have managed to produce a half decent painting of Flora, Roman Goddess of Flowers and Spring (without eruption damage). I’d like to see you do some landscapes please.
I came from the video where he painted his wife which is the piece behind his left shoulder and to see it in another video makes my tiny little heart happy 💛
I’m a pen and ink guy, and I feel like there are some methods that translate. So glad I found this, I wonder if the is a Van Gogh or Courbet (so)? I need to research the page! Thanks for the forgery 😜
Hey Matthew! Yes, I am sure you can find some connexions. I like pen and ink too, maybe will do something about that too... for Van Gogh, here is the video: ua-cam.com/video/iZEPlW3HRoc/v-deo.html No Courbet yet, but who knows? Cheers
Beautiful and inspiring work! These videos are a favorite on Saturday mornings with my fancy breakfast. I’m wondering, may you could consider a real time live stream in the future?
Ah! Thanks for your comment Roger! And you know what? I was thinking about it! The thing is that I need several hours to make a painting, and it is sometimes a bit of a trial and error process, even though I try to plan everything beforehand. But I don’t say no... let’s see in the future!
You make it look easy! I wish I was a talented painter but it’s not to be. That doesn’t stop me from painting though! My Mom says I’m the greatest artist ever! Haha!!😜
Thanks for the compliment but don’t worry: I am still not happy about half the things I draw/paint… I think it is a journey, actually… each canvas teaches you something…
I really enjoyed this and learnt a lot thank you!! I would love to see the palette as you mix your colours, it would enhance the tutorial experience. Off to subscribe, looking forward to seeing your other videos! 👨🎨🎨🖌
Haha, I guess I could, but I unfortunately don’t take commissions at the moment. The idea of my videos is to empower you to do it yourself! Give it a try!
@@mygeekfamilycotton okay I understand so if I can provide you a list of my favorites artists will show and help me to understand they’re art techniques?
Claude Monet, Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec, Georges Seurat, Henri Rousseau, Amedeo Modigliani, Vincent Van Gogh, Edgar Degas, Pierre-Auguste Renoir, Paul Cézanne, Paul Gauguin and Pablo Picasso
Me gusta mucho su tutorial, me gustaría que si es posible, hiciera otro con paisaje o jardín de Monet. Muchas gracias . Un saludo desde Malaga Spain Maria Jesus
These videos are 💎, you do your paintings with so much ardor that it motivates me to start painting again. Loved this tutorial, Thank you so much :) Ps. Do you think I could use the same techniques explained in this video while painting flowers like Monet? Do you have any tips you could share?
Hanzo-San, the name “impressionism” still comes from Monet’s painting. But they were close friends and often exchange about techniques and subjects. Arigatoo!
@@mygeekfamilycotton as far as I know manet’s “luncheon on the grass” is the first impressionistic painting as far as the brushstrokes in the background is concerned. In fact Monet got inspired by this and gave the “Le Déjeuner sur l'herbe” during 1865-66. There is no doubt in calling Monet the most “well versed and knowledgeable of the impressionists” basically the real deal of Impressionism but it’s Manet who started it. The difference between Manet and Monet as far as Impressionism is concerned is the difference between Poe’s Auguste Dupin and Doyle’s Sherlock Holmes. Sure Holmes is the real deal but Dupin is the first detective even before Holmes and set the template for Doyle’s novels. I rest my case. Great video by the way. Cheers!!
When life gives you lemons, make LeMonet
😂😂😂
This made me laugh out loud 😆
😆
😂😂😂😂
Perfect!
a french man doing a french man impression is the best thing i’ve ever seen
Hahaha, you know, being French and living abroad, everyone always asks me to do the “inspector Clouseau” accent… but I actually have a very hard time talking like that! 😂😂😂
I love the way you teach! A little bit of history, a little bit of technique, and a then actual application. Perfecto!
Thanks for watching!
You've just taught me more about impressionist painting in the first ten minutes than I learnt in two years at art college. You have a lovely way of teaching. Subscribed!

LOVE the close ups!!!! THANK YOU!!!

Thank you for watching and for your ideas!
Just lovely! Impressionism: My favorite Art movement/era!
Thanks for watching!
This was amazing! The only video I can find that actually teaches and demonstrates how I can make a portrait like Monet. Thank you!!
Thanks a lot for watching!
Before coming into this video I was so freaked out and stressed, but as soon as I heard his voice and the music it just calmed me down so much. Love the video!
Thanks!
You have a so lovely way of teaching! Gratitude.

Great! Go create something beautiful!
Thank you for sharing your knowledge. This painting is beautiful and the explanation is detailed.

These are very very useful tips..Thank you for this video..
Thanks for watching!
I learnt more about painting from this short video than i did at art school, which destroyed both my joy in art and my confidence. Thank you! I can't wait to try this and get into painting again ❤
Thank you Gina! Let your art live and basically do what you want: try stuff without fear of failing because… well, there is no failing in art!

Van Gogh's "Sunflowers" would be lots of fun and interesting to watch!
Thank you! You taught me much in this video. Bon Chance! 🍀
Amazing, very well taught
Thank you!
I absolutely love this style of painting!
Thanks a lot for watching!
Thanks your excellent tutorial.
Thanks for watching!

Can you please do a tutorial on one of Monet's close friends, John Peter Russell? He's one of my favourites and I'd love to see a breakdown on his style!
Thanks for watching! You are not the first one to ask about Russell! Haha, let me see what I can do!
Very helpful tutorial, thank you for sharing and explaining the steps! Could you possibly make a "Paint like Paul Gauguin" tutorial?
Hi! Thanks for your message and your encouragement! Gauguin would be interesting indeed... let’s see what I can do! Thanks!
Unreal. Can't wait to try this, thanks!
Thanks for watching!
Thank you for the concise explanation and filmed examples
Thanks!
Thanks ,the tutorial was very helpful .
Thanks!
Excellent and amusing

Beautiful explanation...
Thanks a lot!
I really love your tutorial videos. Your instructions are clear and coherent and the close up shots of the canvas are very helpful to me. I would love a real time video to learn your technique as I have never had any training, aside from UA-cam videos, and I am hungry for knowledge. Thank you!
Thanks Bill! Yeah, I may think about a live video… thing is, I usually don’t talk a lot while painting, so it might be boring… 😋
@@mygeekfamilycotton Perhaps a little music might help, but for me, I find it all very interesting. Seeing the close ups of which brush and technique is used to place the paint is extremely helpful and I really appreciate you!
Haha thanks. I’ll see what I can do!
Great work. Thank you for your video
Thanks!
Wonderful, Herve!! Will try this one, too, at some point! 💖
Great! Show me when you do!

That would be his right shoulder.
it was very helpful, merci beaucoup
Thanks!
Thank you very much very helpful and educative. I’d you do watercolors would be nice to see your portrait process for that as well
Such a good video and explanation of Impressionism. Loved the painting too!
Thank you!
Excellent
Great video, thank you
Thanks for watching!
Awesome video. Entertaining and calm too.
Love this, great painting exercise 👌
Thanks a lot
I loved it.
Thanks a lot!
Cezanne, this is informative , relaxing, and of course technique is not the individual hand.
The effort you put into the impersonation was brilliant, the costume, the gestures and accent sold it!
Subscribed!
Haha, I try to make it a bit lively... but the accent is genuine: I am really French! 😂
@@mygeekfamilycotton oh it must've been your tone then!
Absolutely fantastic tutorial and information on the artist ! Love it x 💋
Angie from the UK .
Thanks, Angie!
Stunning!
Thank you!
This was very helpful! Thank you! Can you do a Cezanne? I love his use of geometrics.
I’m a pen and ink guy, and I feel like there are some methods that translate. So glad I found this, I wonder if the is a Van Gogh or Courbet (so)? I need to research the page! Thanks for the forgery 😜
Hey Matthew! Yes, I am sure you can find some connexions. I like pen and ink too, maybe will do something about that too... for Van Gogh, here is the video: ua-cam.com/video/iZEPlW3HRoc/v-deo.html
No Courbet yet, but who knows? Cheers
Great Video ! How about a tutorial of Jean Paul Riopelle's Method and style. Merci.
Thanks for watching! I will see what I can do, although abstract is not my forte, to be honest… hahaha! The next video will be about Frida Kahlo
I only have 6 steps written down, what was step number 7? Thanks for sharing.
Hi’ thanks for watching! The steps are:
1.tint
2. Sketch
3. Under painting
4. Background
5. Dabbing
6.tonking
7. Details
Amazing
Thank you!

Hello! Thanks for watching! The next video will be a room in the style of Matisse!

Love it! I just subscribed to your channel, super excited to follow you, and learn more, - you are a great teacher, sir! 🤓👍🏼
Thank you! Really appreciate it! I am just sharing what I’ve learned along the road.
Fantastic! Thanks
Could you plz explain Monet's Water Lilies too...
Thanks for your message! I’ll get into landscapes soon!
You son looks so much like Doc Holiday oh my goodness I love this! Thank you for sharing these incredible talents!
Haha, thanks, must be the fake moustache... I hope he doesn’t gamble though... 😋
i saw this same picture at the OK CORALL, in the corner stood a double barrel shotgun, still smoking.
Es un video interesante, me ha inspirado mucho, iré a pintar ahora!
Muchas gracias y saludos desde Singapur !
I really enjoyed this and learnt a lot thank you!! I would love to see the palette as you mix your colours, it would enhance the tutorial experience. Off to subscribe, looking forward to seeing your other videos! 👨🎨🎨🖌
Thanks a lot! It is indeed a good idea. Will try to do that for a next video!
Good video inspire me to take one. Became your fan
May I ask you to explain how to paint like Henri de toulouse-Latrec?
Thanks for your message! Could be nice, will try and work on it!
Thank you so much ❤❤
Thanks for watching!
sooo underrated
Wow, just Bravo!!! Love Monet. Just found you, so will look into more and comment in the future.🍀🌻🦅
Awesome! Thank you!
That was awesome Thankyou xo
wow thank you! Now I know what tonking is :)
The first time I did it, I was so scared to ruin the painting! 😂 but, no, it worked all right!
@@mygeekfamilycotton Yes it does seem a bit intimidating 😂 But it turned out lovely in this video 👌🏼❤️✨I will definitely try it!
I don’t know that Jack Black was also a painter, btw thanks for this helpful video!
Hahaha, I get that a lot! Thanks for watching!
Very nice
Thank you!
THANK YOU SO MUCHHH
Thank you for watching!
If I send you some photos of myself with the harp can you paint them with the same technique from my favorite artist in Paris?
Haha, I guess I could, but I unfortunately don’t take commissions at the moment. The idea of my videos is to empower you to do it yourself! Give it a try!
@@mygeekfamilycotton okay I understand so if I can provide you a list of my favorites artists will show and help me to understand they’re art techniques?

Claude Monet, Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec, Georges Seurat, Henri Rousseau, Amedeo Modigliani, Vincent Van Gogh, Edgar Degas, Pierre-Auguste Renoir, Paul Cézanne, Paul Gauguin and Pablo Picasso
very interesting. Merci! I'd like to see you try something on an ipad too.
Aaaaah! Thanks... I am more of a old fashioned paper and pen/paint and canvas... but who knows? 😋
After that art critic impression I just had to subscribe!
Hahaha, more impressions coming soon if you like that ! 😋
Me gusta mucho su tutorial, me gustaría que si es posible, hiciera otro con paisaje o jardín de Monet. Muchas gracias . Un saludo desde Malaga Spain

Hola Maria! Muchas gracias! Intentaré incluir esto en un próximo video.
What do you called to the canvas did you use?
Hi! Thanks for watching. It is a « canvas board », I.e. a canvas glued on a thick cardboard. It is not a stretched canvas on a wooden frame.
These videos are 💎, you do your paintings with so much ardor that it motivates me to start painting again. Loved this tutorial, Thank you so much :)
Ps. Do you think I could use the same techniques explained in this video while painting flowers like Monet? Do you have any tips you could share?
Thanks for watching! I mostly do portraits, but I guess you could use the same advices for flowers, yes… why not?
@@mygeekfamilycotton Alright, Thank you so much. Will be trying it out today :)
Wonderful! How about Basquiat?
Thanks! There has been a few requests so, maybe in the future! Cheers
