Вставка
- Опубліковано 2 жов 2024
- A behind-the-scenes view of what it's like as an artist working on a solo exhibition. I created 8 new watercolour paintings for my first ever solo, "Flood" at Haven Gallery. The exhibition has already opened, so you can check out the body of work over on my website. #brbchasingdreams

I SO love seeing your behind the scenes work!
Hey mako, I love you ❤❤❤
Makoo hiiii! Omg it's so good to see you being so good at your art still stick on to learn from other artists as well.. #makoficationsquad 💞
💓💓💓
Yo mako!
I love you so much!!!
Extremely interesting! Great video bro :)
thanks pal! 💕
You should try this
Fuudggge! These two great artists need collab. 😍
OMG ITS VEXX
I just wanna say that your art and techniques are just astounding!
You are such a big inspiration and I love watching your videos!
The way of using the colors and the love to detail is just incredible.
You are one of my biggest inspirations in art and you make me want to keep improving and keep going!
So thank you for making such great pieces and sharing it with the world to see! ^^ keep going!
EDIT: thanks for the heart and so many likes! I’m really happy that my comment reached you all •w•
EPISODE TWO!! The show has opened already, but I still want to share with you guys the behind-the-scenes of it all. It was a huge chapter in my life, being both a highlight and also one of the most intense periods. It's taken a while to edit all the footage since coming back home from the US, but I finally figured a direction for these studio/vlog style videos and I hope you guys enjoy it. I'm already working on episode 3, which will come out next week :)
You are almost running out of your most used colors in your cotman paint. Are you going to replace them with artist grade?
kelogsloops I love your art
@@richieray6619 most of the colours have already been replaced with artist grades! I think there are just a few pans left that are still the original cotman's
@@kelogsloops Maybe you already know it but you can use the heat of a hairdryer to break the adhisive of tape.
Then you don't have to be afraid to rip the paper, it will peel of very simple and clean. :)
Exquisite work 💖
he had a solo exhibition
Yes he had a solo exhibition
Your art and the detail of your painting are breathtaking.. I also love the way you put your shading in your watercolor piece, I get with what you said about water color aesthetic and how if you want to have so many control why not just use alcrylic or copic.. but I think water color controled shade have different vibe with other media, and have their own charm.. in my personal preference loose watercolor thecnique are kinda mainstream lol so its okay if you have your own style in doing watercolor and not using watercolor aesthetic.. your painting are still amazing either way, thank you for sharing the video
Completly agree with this comment. The fact that you use watercolor this way makes your art unique! You get textures and vibes that i havent seen before. If i had to give it an explanation, i would say that its the flowness or softness of watercolour mixed with your controlled style that makes your works a calm and safe place to look at.
Talented and Adorable
Why can't I find guys like that in my life?
There are one and only
At 4:21 I was at the edge of my seat there saying "yeah! please please please! don't rip the paper, be smooth...." /holds breath...and phew, yay! Well done, beautiful. At 8:06 I just had faith it would be ok. I know it's easier to blend with oil, but this is just gorgeous work with the skin shading and I appreciate seeing it done with watercolor. Entertaining vlog, wishing you the best with your show.
When you did the white sea foam I forgot how to breathe. You literally took my breath away! Wow 💙👏🏻👏🏻
3 years later and you are still my biggest inspiration for watercolor painting. I started painting a few years ago because I would watch your videos and wish I could do the same thing, and now I've been working up to it and I'm so glad to see us both growing as artists! #brbchasingdreams
Dem peels doe
isn't no kelogsloops video without no peelporn!
@kelogsloops you are truly taking me to a greater path as an artist 💖 I am learning so much from you 💖💖💖💖😭
IT'S ALIVE! Lol. And on UA-cam! Gorgeous work. You really inspire me to work on my watercolour art. Thank you!
Are you, in fact, having a solo exhibition?? Why didn't you say?! 😉
how coincidental that you ask!!!! why yes, yes I did :)
You have such a steady hand! I try to do those intricate thin white line details and they are so crooked.
Amazing work !
Always inspires me to paint
you are such a good ilustrator, lovely artworks lovely colours mixing👍👍👍
Your paintings are stunning!! Love your channel :)
Dude your work is amazing! Just wondering what are your go-to colors for your skin tones and indigo-ish blues? Anyways best of luck, and hope you can get back to chasing dreams ;)
santiago villongco I’d also be interested in the answer to this thanks
Im also interested too like damn it’s beautiful
im just a nee supporter of you but in on week of watching some of your videos I've learned alot. you're such a pro artist❤
Use a blowdrier. The heat will break the adhesive of the tape and it will be way easier (and safer) to peel off. Beautiful artworks by the way, hope the exhibition goes/went well :)
You never fail to make my day every time you upload a video... I love you Hieu! Big inspiration to me!
Absolutly beautiful 😍😍😍
Oh my god i love your work so much like i cant even put it in words. This is amazing, you're freakin amazing and yeah i just wanted to let you know that
Could you please do a video on your drawing process alone? I'm sure a lot of us would like to see how you get your lines to be so clean
Yes please
If that solo exhibition ever comes to Los Angeles, I would be there in a heartbeat. ❤️
I guess every artist must feel differently about watercolours, as I'm someone who has always used coloured pencils and oil paints asI' able to get that precision and control, i always stayed away from watercolours, until recently, where i wished to challenge myself to get that control with watercolours to produce a piece like all my outcomes and after a few goes i think i mastered it pretty well :)
that being said, i LOVE your more recent outcomes, they're just so stunning!!
Love your BTS video and i find it so funny you have the HP bar from pokemon in the corner! :)
Man I love you so much! This whole video is just so inspiring and I love the jumps it just shows how hard working you are as an artist bouncing around every piece! Congratulations you did awesome in your solar exhibition! Thank you for being such an inspiring artist! ❤️ Keep Chasing your dreams!
MAN! I didn't know how much I missed seeing you work until now
I love your art! 😍
Whoa crazy!!!
I'm loving your art so much. Your one of my inspirations. That last piece I can see on my wall. Many I should make a Christmas gift for myself 😉
Thank you so much for posting bits and pieces of your progress. ❤️ I love your work and it's so much fun to listen to your process. I want to pull out my paints now. Thank you for that. 😊
Great video! Always love seeing your mom. She's so funny. Totally understand how shooting these videos can interfere with your workflow. I ask myself the same question about how I control my watercolour. I bounce back and forth with different mediums. I would love to see how you do your skin layers. Have a wonderful holiday and hi to your mom.
Yay! I was so excited to watch your vlog! Your art is mesmerizing and so dreamy. Such an inspiration
When I remove rubber fluid ….. I have previously pour some of that liquid in a small bowl and let it dry. When dry I roll it some so I can handle it and use it to lift it off the paper. I don’t like the rubber block that is sold to do that. I believe that my method results in a softer removal.
I so love
I LEGIT got so excited to watch this and of course you're always SO inspiring ❤️❤️❤️
PEELPORN!!!😍😍
I love your art and creative process. Keep up the great work!
This is beautiful work... as always! I love your videos and your spirit! You seem to really enjoy what you do. It comes through loud and clear. Have a great holiday!
Amaziiiiing. I cant wait for next video. I just adore your art. ❤️
Every time you post a video, my jaw just drops for the entirety of it. This is nothing different, everything is just so beautiful....one day, I hope I'll be able to paint as beautifully as you do. Keep on improving!!
Beautiful work as always man! I love seeing your process!!!
I missed your videos, I just woke up and received this notification and It made my day
I really wish I could visit your solo exhibition... but it might be a liiittle bit far away hehe ^^
I'm happy you share all this on UA-cam in these great videos! MUCH love from Germany✨💙
This series is awsome! Keep up the hard work, congrats!!
Thanks for sharing! Stunning work! And I think iT still looks very much as watercolor!
You are such an amazing artist and you inspire me a lot. Thank you for making videos and keep up the awesome quality!!
I'm so glad I got to see them in person! Absolutely breathtaking, and so inspiring ✨
thanks for coming out to the show justin, was so great to meet you!!
they are AMAZING 😭❤️
Kelogsloops you should REALLY invest in getting a heating tool of some kind, it would cut your drying time down by hours, and allow you to finish pieces quicker.
this is insane
omg you're so talented and so creative, I love watching your videos and you're one of my biggest art inspirations :)))) keep doing what you do!
OMG! Youre soooo cute!!! Thanks for sharing this with us. I love it. ❤️
your works have a flow and rhythm in them , beautiful. how did your exhibition go?
Stunning work! How does one manage to get a solo exposition? I know more of the 'online' part - just curious how that part of the art industry work (plus, had now idea those are still a thing nowadays - what a lovely surprise!). Congrats on that, it's no small feat! Regarding the point you made about being more and more controlled and 'what the point of watercolor' as opposed to other medium - well, I guess it's more a matter of what drew you to watercolor over other mediums in the first place. For many it's - as you say - that watercolor 'effect' and 'feel', the flow, looseness and 'happy accidents' and if that's what you love about it, by all means, go back to that. For me it was always the softness, how the colors just blended seamlessly into one another, smoothly and softly, but are still vibrant and just glow. I just always disliked the hard edges and an overworked appearance. haven't seen another medium manage to do that, especially not acrylics or oils - the just don't have that softness or glow and transparency. I think pastels are the closest, but they too are not easy to use (definitely for details), and the dust and messiness aren't something I'm fond of. Their blending ability and softness are unparalleled, but the have more of matt feel to them in general, and to get the piece to glow is not an easy task (plus, how fun is it to watch watercolor go wet in wet?!) Bottom line, I personally don't see anything wrong with developing your skills and experimenting with other styles and new directions especially if you enjoy it and like the results you're getting. If don't - that's something else altogether. But I personally, don't think you should limit ourselves, or change the way we do things, just because we think that that's how it's supposed to be done. I love how experience helps us discover new ways of doing things, and we should celebrate that. We should go with flow (pun intended Haha!) and just let our talent lead they way - and you're way is gorgeous so far!! But that's just my two cents, hope you don't mind me chiming it with them 😊 Oh! and by the way - What white did you use for highlights? Ink? Gouache?
jeeez i love your art dude! That so fucking beautiful!
I love so much your paintings from a very long time right now. ... and u actually see that you made the process video of the first piece that is my phone background screen actually so I jumped immediately in ! 😂 and anyway I still love a lot your videos and your work is just so amazing ! (If you want I play a lot overwatch too and it's my favorite game so feel free to notice or if you wanna play I'm her lmfao xD)
Hahaha I love your art and I love your videos!! I had a great time watching it and the health bar and the final overwatch chat part cracked me up. Excellent work, as always. I’d love to have some of your artwork at home
Amazing art as always !!! Congrats for the solo show :D !!
Spectacular 🌺🌼🌺
love this piece and i love your hoodie ~ ㅠㅠ
Aww your fan was in game!? That's so awesome!
Awesome video! It was way better than long timelapses :D
There is nothing wrong with using controlled techniques with watercolor - or any technique on any medium. Just look at Stephen Scott Young, Paul McCormack and Mary Whyte - all watercolorists who employ very realistic and tight painting techniques. It is all about the vision you have, laying it down on paper and getting it across to the audience. Cheers!
How long does it take you to complete the thumb? :)) I love your work!
How did he get the face to look so symmetrical?!
Your work is always so beautiful. I totally get the control vs water color aesthetics thing. I can't wait to see how your style changes if you decide to go back to a little less control. That is something I really struggle with.
thanks for sharing technics ! i love your video and your work it's beautiful =) funny 4.20 for experienced lol
I actually was the same with watercolours it was too detailed and not flowy or accidental enough like you said, but I like the medium too much to stop
I love your art soooo much! I'm applying for a degree in digital arts because of how much you inspired me!!! Thank you soooooo much!
you and your art both are awesome :D
I love your art much.
This video boosted my inspiration😉
Even tho the video is "jumpy" it's very informative for me
This is so beautiful. I really want to try working in your style?
I want tout go to your solo exhibition 😂
But I am french sooo... Anyway, your art is just amazing ! ❤
How do u keep the edges of ur artwork so neat? My paint keeps bleeding through, any tips to solve that??? 🙁
what kind of glue or something youre using for golden leaf detailing?
@Xium'IN' Xium'OUT' Oh okay thank you! :)
Xium'IN' Xium'OUT' what brand has that? I’ve bought gold leaf and it never came with adhesive.
@@AmandaDarko I suggest you buy Kolner Instacoll for any surface. It's the Best product ever, and it gives gold its metallic properties. It works with precision and the gold doesn't tarnish. Kolner also can create a kind of 3D effect (if you don't dilute it).
It was great bro. Thanks for the share. I Hope can connect with you
Your work is so beautiful! I would be so proud if I were you! 😅 I hope my art can be as good as yours someday
He's a God alive
When/where will there be prints of the artwork that was in your Solo exhibition?! I would love to buy several of the pieces! Please let me know!
Love you and your work!
I'll be releasing prints from my online shop next year! They're not available yet, but you can join the mailing list to be notified when prints will come out here: kelogsloops.com/printslist
@@kelogsloops I'm on the list and eagerly waiting for next year! Keep up the amazing work! You have inspired me to pick up my watercolors again! Have a Merry Christmas and a wonderfull New Year!
Omg tell me whete you get this amazing masking tape 🤤
I hope you could answer, what kind of tape do you use to frame your artwork? Cause no matter what tape
I use I always end up ripping the paper of ☹️☹️
Wow! How do you make it so that the masking tape does not rip up the paper?
Good luck and God bless to your solo exhibition hope it was successful.🤞🤞
How do you not paint outside the lines...must have very good control of the brush???
let me see if i understand, did you had a solo exhibition? Loveeee your work!!!!
Trying to figure out why but I just can't so: Why are you using an oblique nib holder for linework?
Just...HOW.
i've been painting with the lukas watercolours for a while now (12 colors), that used to be my mom's. Now, I'm thinking about buying the koh i noor set with 24 colors. Any advice on that?
Hey! Are you going to make any of these available as prints? I just tried to buy the 'Inner Stream' one from the Haven Gallery website but unfortunately they are sold out :( I'm so bummed that I missed out! It would be amazing if you made it available again!
Please consider, thank you so much and can't see what else you create in the future! :) Congrats on your solo exhibition!
so freakin gorgeous. I love how they turned out. I can't wait for vlog 3. amazing work 👏🏻😭❤️
Do you not have a dryer? I’m sure you do. I’m so impatient I would be able to wait 😅 I actually just a nail heater from jamberry (you can see it in some of my videos.) it's a heater so it dries more than pushes around. Plus it's small and compact, in case any one is looking for something.
With the controlling the art aspect, like you said with feeling like you lose the purpose, maybe try gouache! It’s a much better medium to feel the need to control! I love gouache and I feel like maybe you would too💝
So Beautiful ! 还有点东方美的神韵!非常棒!😍😍😍😁😁😁😊😊😊👍👍👍👍👍👍
The guy from the painting looks kind of like you.
Um I'm having a solo exhibition lol I'm still shookith by that
I really love your watercolour drawing so much. I’m using some of your drawing and do my changes.
