I'm very new to oil, I'm only 16 with dreams of having art be my full time job. I've only been painting for 4 years and got quite decent at it. During the quarantine, I learned how to oil paint through different videos and I sometimes get commissions, but only through family members. Caravaggio really inspired me these last few weeks. I've been watching these studies at home and at school once I have free time. I'm determined to have my own unique style like him. I really enjoy art like this, I don't really like the art today.
Good for you loving this kind of painting style. As for ‘ your own style’ don’t worry about it , style develops. You don’t create it. Be honest and true with your work, your ‘ style’ will come naturally. Also painting today can achieve the same results without going this method. It is not how you paint, it is what you paint. Good luck Also go look at the original.
@@EvilThunderB0lt , you're right that Caravaggio didn't do preliminary drawings or scaled transfers like a mere mortal, but he did sketch directly onto the canvas with paint and incise or scrape outlines into the grounds, which it looks like this very brave man did, but didn't film because how it got the incision outline 1:1 was likely not free-hand like Caravaggio. I'm just happy to see the true masters studied by artists in this day and age. Raphael, Michelangelo, Caravaggio...it takes a lot of guts for a talented artist to even approach the works of these greats--I can only salute the daring and say God bless! Lead the way!
@@danieljoseph255 More likely Caravaggio began with a wipe-out of basic lights, then built up their opacity, dragging some lights into the (still wet) shadows to achieve optical grays at the turnings. The shadows in this video are far too busy, and the lights too limited in value range and temperature.
Art school never prepared me for the absolute glory of what human hands are capable of creating. As always, in absolute awe of the masters, and all who follow their own tune. Thank you for the vid
@Bryce Thibodeaux you can't learn painting from internet. You always need a master not a video. That's very important, video are not interactive. Also I don't know where are you from but in Italy we have a lot of art schools and we learn from different masters. You learn a lot of things like different techniques but also you learn the poetry of painting. Have nice day 👋
@Bryce Thibodeaux you make it much easier and simple that really is making art. You don't learn techniques and do it. That's bullshits of American aesthetic that everyone is an artist and can make art in fact most of American artists have never studied art or studied in art academy. Most of their works are only the copy of ancient masters like Pollock, Warhol and Basquiat. Now I want to teach you a thing: art is not a simple hobby that, after returning from work you sit and make it. Art is complex and you need to study, you need to go to art school (also I see American art school but trust me, Italian and French art school are much better.). For example in Italian academies, where I'm studying, art is very respected because it's so hard, you don't have the idea, learn the techniques and make it. Art is not only that, art is philosophy, you need to have skills. So if you think that's what I'm saying is "the voice of a slave" you really have not the idea what art is.
@Bryce Thibodeaux Also, you spoke about some artists who became famous and successful without studied art in schools. Look at the differences of art history: in Italian renaissance everyone studied from different masters like Verrocchio, they make a very impressive naturalistic art. Can somebody paint as Leonardo or Caravaggio, studying only on internet? Now a days is quite easy to make art, concept art make everything simple but the difference from a talented artist to a mediocre one is the foundation of art philosophy, what you learn. I told you this because I now a lot of mediocre artists that have studied on internet and they where so focused to become respected. Everyone of them now have changed work. Another question: if you have the tools to grow up, the possibility to expand your knowledge, why don't use its? Also we can make an example: Van Gogh is a self made artist. Now a day he is one of the most famous painter. He is famous but it doesn't mean that he was a capable artist. Look at his way to paint or maybe to draw: he is quite mediocre but what have make him famous was his life, very sad, and his poetry. Since the beginning I told you about the poetry of painting but, what you can learn from schools, professors and masters are the techniques. That's true. Also not only the technique make you a capable artist, but, let's make the differences between Ludwig Kirchner and Otto Dix. Who is more impressive?
@Bryce Thibodeaux of course I'm not, also I know that I don't speak with a genius of noble arts. If you don't want to use your tools to improve that's not my fault. Most of the greatest mind in history received an education. Also who said that I don't educate myself? Man you are very braggart. Give me your profile I want to see your cleverness.
Amazing to see the layers build. What incredible skills. I have seen caravaggios in the flesh and they are a wonder on the eyes. Realer than real. Almost 3D. You do great tribute to these works
I'm not an artist. No artistic talent whatsoever, so I live vicariously through those who have been blessed with that skill. It's so interesting to see how Caravaggio, who happens to be my favorite Baroque artist, created his masterpieces. So beautiful.
Talent is a learned and earned skill, rarely if not never are we born with talent, it is always earned through hard work. Can’t get good at something if you don’t try. 🤷🏼♂️
thats bullshit, the only thing you need to do is be interested in art. there are so many many options to grow in, not necessary painting. find your sensibility, one professor told me: erase what you know til now and start again. so find your inner you when you express your drawings or projects, let your hand slide through paper freely. dont compare to anyone, i know now it is terrible because the loads of information but no one can be you, you are unique and there is no other you in this planet. give it a chance.
Dawg, tbh, its taken me three years to get good at art. The only thing stopping you from becoming a master is money, time, and determination. Which, tbh, you dont even need money anymore, there are so many artists I know who make their own supplies since quality paint and brushes can be hard to find.
I love the music. Exciting and invigorating. This is how Caravaggio painted- white underpainting, then adding glazes or just over painting after that layer dried. Nice, one wonders how he painted so many works. Essentially he painted everything …twice.
You know you are watching an absolute master of his craft when I KNOW that is a paintbrush, on a canvas, putting the finishing touches on a bald head , and yet it looks so 3D realistic I could swear he was painting a real persons head. Astounding work.
Oh my I'm speechless. I just binged Vermeer and now I'm literally just ...a very beautiful painting. Not how I do my portraits but I will try your technique.Amazing beautiful painting. I'm stunned 🎻
Formula Juan. Transporting and setting a stone upright, a standing stone, is a 5.000 year old technique. Glazing is done with linseed oil or painting medium for oil paint, giving results which cannot be achieved any other way.
Caravaggio was his own worst enemy, the dude was nothing short of being the perfect painter, however his own ego and rage got the better of him in the end. Who knows how many more masterpieces he would have produced. RIP to the outlaw artist
You can't split his ego from his art. What made Caravaggio unique wasn't just his technique, but his violent urge to express himself. His craziness and his talent were deeply connected.
Caravaggio beautiful painting. Fantastic artwork. Thanks for showing us. with this music IT no combination. is like Chinese soup with applesause and pimento. No combination.
If I am not mistaken, the music in the background is variously used in Hirohiko Araki artwork assigned as names of characters and places, that's for real his type in JoJo
Id like a painting like caravaggio of St. Jude Thaddaeus but where he is teaching a crowd of multitude of people. Id buy one in a heartbeat. Nice work and this was so fun to watch👍
And to think that these masterpieces in an auction will barely reach $500,000, while a white canvas with a dot in the middle (or a random scribble that any 5 year-old makes) will sell for $15,000,000.00
Well considering that some Caravaggio's are worth over $100,000,000 I'm gonna have to say that you're wrong. Also, the appeal of those abstract paintings is somewhat bullshit, yes, but something like a dot in the middle of a white canvas sold so well because, "if it's so easy, why didn't you do it?"
There is a lot of thought that goes through minimalist pieces like that. Art is meant to bring out the emotions in you, and i would bet in a museum common people will actually paymore attention to the white canvas than the renaissance ones (if they would be displayed together lol) In the other hand, I personally think art galleries are still a rich man’s world. I dont understand the MASSIVE price range either... but i havent seen million dollar minimalist paintings first hand so maybe i cant speak on it, sometimes looking at a painting on its physical state is a whole other experience
Niko I think I understand what you are saying, complimenting the artist’s skills, but Caravaggio’s paintings sell for 10’s of millions. Actually they don’t sell, they are invaluable and only appear in museums. Much like the Mona Lisa will never be sold. Some artist reach that status, especially if they have a limited collection.
Wow. Amazing. I’m out of words. Cannot believe the lights and shadows handling. It was like watching a renacentist artist painting a masterpiece. hope someday i have your skills. Here from 🇦🇷
Outstanding!😍🖼 I saw an excellent special about Caravaggio. 👍 Very unique paintings. Kinda macabre.😳 "Beheading of John the Baptist" Bit of a troubled man. 🤔 But I think that's why I like "David & Goliath".😊 The symbolism of him slaying his past.🗡
In the process notice the line drawing has to be layed down very well under all paintings is a master drawing.......but notice how at some point you can break away from the lines and work in shadows, forms then shapes.....its important to understand this artist may have done many drawings and sketches before commiting to this pose but definetely he worked out the folds in the robes before hand too. Now he will focus on the patterns of light.....and shadow....but pay attention to the kind of brush strokes he uses and types of brushes, each area has different strokes. Notice thetriangle of perspective between the skull and hand and other arm....the pose is one of benediction and reflective of death of body but the halo of sainthood....all painting comes from spirit first before it rests in the eye of the painter then viewer.
Let me try.....this tutorial looks easy. Update: fail I failed miserably because I forgot to add on the first layer of white 30 years of dedication, 20 hours a day.... That was not in the explanation....
Impressive, I'm always wanted to know how this people were able to paint like this. BTW the music doesn't bother me at all, I just mute the video. Thx for sharing.
The skin on the hand isnt right on old hand like mine / his-you see the bones running to the fingers and the almost transparent skins stretched across blue veins
Do you use just fast drying oils as mediums? I wonder how you are thinning the paint while glazing. By the way amazing work, I love it. Keep going mate
Yes, I only use linseed oil varnish or selfmade blackoil. By glazing, the colour is applied very thin and very less. Sometimes it´s a little bit like painting with dry brush.
@@oldmasterpaintings What do you mean by linseed oil varnish? I don't varnish at all, only using retouching varnish, brings the true colors back on after drying in.
amazing work really. I have a question: how do you line the drawing? Is it that you transfer it first, and then you paint over and the you re-mark it, or is it that you paint the first layer and then you use an "empty" pencil or something to create these "void" lines?

I may suggest an italian video, if you like

Well, 20 hours in 17 minutes
No kidding ,I’m two minutes in and I’m loving how he shows the process
Highly instructive
This is a fantastic study...I learned a lot, thank you...Caravaggio was so incredibly gifted
Remember that Caravaggio never sketched before he painted though. So this is historically inaccurate from the start.
@@EvilThunderB0lt , you're right that Caravaggio didn't do preliminary drawings or scaled transfers like a mere mortal, but he did sketch directly onto the canvas with paint and incise or scrape outlines into the grounds, which it looks like this very brave man did, but didn't film because how it got the incision outline 1:1 was likely not free-hand like Caravaggio.

Great painting with music to a 70’s cop show, lol
@N S I agree completely, but the 70’s cop show music had my OCD’s working overtime, lol
Yeah, I feel like I’m watching Serpico.
Yeah, maybe play something contemporaneous to Caravaggio?
I'm not an artist. No artistic talent whatsoever, so I live vicariously through those who have been blessed with that skill. It's so interesting to see how Caravaggio, who happens to be my favorite Baroque artist, created his masterpieces. So beautiful.
anyone caan learn it, the 'born with it' is a myth. You'll need patience though and always push yourself

There is no such thing as artistic talent. If you want to pearn to paint, you can learn it! Just like I am.
I love the music. Exciting and invigorating. This is how Caravaggio painted- white underpainting, then adding glazes or just over painting after that layer dried. Nice, one wonders how he painted so many works. Essentially he painted everything …twice.
imaging Caravaggio listening to this music while doing the painting back in his century, would have been amazing !
Background music is awesome I’m playing guitar along with it. The Painting is unreal!
This is a lovely little demo. I don’t know what people have against the music. If you don’t like it mute. Anyway I enjoyed this.
He's such a good artist that I bet he's also drawn and/or done most or all of his own tattoos.

Pretty cool. Glazing skin tones is something I did naturally helping my self achieve a color in layers. Didn’t know it was an actual technique.

@@mattmoves5920 Plus he was a very productive artist throughout his career, even while hiding from the law in Naples.
Think great job with a music in conflict with Caravaggio feelings and a profound meditation which could be the ornament of a great old master
I love this but the music is annoying.. i watch on mute nothing against you or your work

In the process notice the line drawing has to be layed down very well under all paintings is a master drawing.......but notice how at some point you can break away from the lines and work in shadows, forms then shapes.....its important to understand this artist may have done many drawings and sketches
before commiting to this pose
but definetely he worked out the folds in the robes before hand too.
Now he will focus on the patterns of light.....and shadow....but pay attention to the kind of brush strokes he uses and types of brushes, each area has different strokes. Notice thetriangle of
perspective between the skull and hand and other arm....the pose is one of benediction and reflective of death of body but the halo of sainthood....all painting comes from
spirit first before it rests in the eye of the painter then viewer.
think how dope should have been to be able to paint that way in the 15 hundreds. No youtube, no art school.
Masterful, thank you.
Let me try.....this tutorial looks easy.
Update: fail
I failed miserably because I forgot to add on the first layer of white 30 years of dedication, 20 hours a day....
That was not in the explanation....
Also: You didn't TRACE.
Thanks for share!!!
Stunningly beautiful!
Awesome
I will try to paint some chiaroscuro. I love it.
Carravagio never started with a drawing. He blocked in the big forms using large brushes.
He scored thru wet gesso with medal object to draw in figures NO large brushes
You made the hands look so easy to paint 😭
This gets me all St. Agnes. OOOOhhhhhh. FIRE!

I have missed the piece where you draw the subject: you made it only by observing the original? Thanks
Ye, that sketch is kind of the most important part
I think he used carbon paper, so do I ;)
The skin on the hand isnt right on old hand like mine / his-you see the bones running to the fingers and the almost transparent skins stretched across blue veins
Do you use just fast drying oils as mediums? I wonder how you are thinning the paint while glazing. By the way amazing work, I love it. Keep going mate
Yes, I only use linseed oil varnish or selfmade blackoil. By glazing, the colour is applied very thin and very less. Sometimes it´s a little bit like painting with dry brush.
@@oldmasterpaintings Thanks, i use liquin original which provides fast drying as well but i'll try linseed oil instead. Let's see if it improves :)
One time i tried it out but liquin doesn´t work on a non-absorbent ground. With the linseed oil varnish or blackoil the colours mostly dry overnight.
@@oldmasterpaintings i use regular canvas which is primed with gesso, so linseed should be okay. I will give it a try asap :)
@@oldmasterpaintings What do you mean by linseed oil varnish? I don't varnish at all, only using retouching varnish, brings the true colors back on after drying in.
amazing work really. I have a question: how do you line the drawing? Is it that you transfer it first, and then you paint over and the you re-mark it, or is it that you paint the first layer and then you use an "empty" pencil or something to create these "void" lines?
Muy bueno el tutorial, pero podía poner música de la época. Congratulations!!!!
Great artist you are
beautiful
i suggest it more entertaining if you make a timelapse video of that painting
Puhh, can´t remember exactly but it was around 15 hours of painting time and I fear, my old notebook won´t work with that much data....
