I have a BA degree with (HONS). My style of painting is very much like yours. I was told that you can't get no where near enough detail without using oil. I watched this entire thing with my mouth open. (I'm 45 now) but I remember being told also that art won't get you a real job. I work in an office, and I'm miserable. What I wouldn't give to have such a great place to create art like yours. But I will pick up the paintbrushes once again after many years of typing on a keyboard and hating my life. I want to paint the starry night in oil. Which me luck :)
@SW Best writer, please make your dream a reality .
Agreed! Life is short
Good luck!!
Love it, keep pushing bro
Vivez votre rêve, où au moins consacrez-y votre temps libre 😏
My daughter is a wildlife veterinarian. She will be celebrating her bday soon. I wish you are from somewhere near because I want to give her a painting of the 5 endangered animals they breed. Alas! I am from South East Asia. Love your paintings!
P.S. For the person mitigating my personal knowledge vs. His subjective experience: I bought a cookbook and the courier cost was $200 while a bag's shipping cost was almost €400. That was DHL and fedex. We do have a post office here and we had lost packages before. Unless items are listed in large wholesale e-commerce marketplace which has really competitive shipping fee in neighboring Asian countries, courier cost is pricey. Some people need to weight in reasonable options such as shipping time, prone to damage in transit and the COST! We have equally talented artists here and deliveries are free. (I have a painting of a humpback whale diving in the ocean and waves are so realistic. It is my favorite and the artist is local). That is my excuse! I can't wink enough here. Before underming people first - widen one's limited perspective, make sure to properly "be in someone's shoes. Apologies, I am not a fan of horror art.
We live in a global world; people ship everyday million of items (painting included). I shipped my paintings regularly from NY, then from Okinawa and now from Italy; it was never a problem (distance is not an excuse any more ;)
I was an airbrush artist n can paint ! But after seeing your video? I feel better because I was using paint brush? But it looked flat! So I started airbrushing my work on top of acrylics n it looked professionally painted n more realism. So your right! Airbrush defines what the paint brush can't . Nice video 😊
@@angelomariano9494 yeah sure if I will use DHL and fedex. I already paid $200 for a cookbook and more than $400 for a bag for the sf only. Small items expensive shipping. Oh wait yessss we have the local post which takes ages and yes packages gets lost. My very smart grandmother once said "you will never know till you are in another man's shoes." 😇 Now there's this better meaning of ASSUME. You make an A$$ of U & ME. 😜😜😜
@@angelomariano9494e di wow alam mo na lahat. Bumili ako ng cookbook at sa sf pa lang umabot na ng $200 samantalang ang bag naman e mahigit €400. DHL or fedex yan. May post office din kami dito. Pero may nawawala na packages. Ang hirap kasi kinukumpara mo experience mo na wala ka sa bansa namin. So what's my excuse? We have equally talented and humble no cray cray artists here and deliveries are free. 😜😜😜😜gets mo? Wala akong pake kung taga NYC ka o kung saan man na lupalop! If you need translation Sweat it out in google translate.
There are so many incredibly skilled artists in South East Asia as well, many of them are UA-camrs too. So I'm sure you can find one in your local community you can work with on creating the perfect painting(s) for your daughter.
Just the most beautiful painting that anyone would be proud to hang up and stare at forever 🥰
hello🎉🎉🎉🎉❤❤❤❤❤
Much better looking than 99% of all insanely overpriced abstract garbage that’s for sure
Its like the big cat was lying there while you add the spots, almost purring and chilling out, gorgeous painting thankyou for sharing awesome ❤❤❤
hello❤❤❤❤❤❤😂
I agree totally! Also, this artist is the only one I’ve found so far that explained the ENTIRE process from beginning to end. This video gives me more hope that I’m going in the right direction as I’m 100% self taught. I am just amazed at this artists realistic creations!
@@patriciayard107 I was thinking the same thing, thinking this animal was getting ready to leap when he was messing with its paws!!
Amazing! Just wonderful to see you work .
Dude, your videos are sensational. I just discovery your channel here and man, your art inspired me a lot. I need to get to paint with again with acrylics. Really, really inspiring video. And amazing acrylics tips, thanks a million for it. you are a true artist.
The level of detail enthusiasm talent and hard work makes your paintings so realistic and amazing.
hello❤❤❤❤
Such patience with those spots! It's absolutely beautiful.
Absolutely beautiful! Finally someone who paints realistically with acrylics! Thank you for sharing
😂❤❤❤❤ hello
Are you the artist or the prey? The jaguar looks like its considering you for lunch.
Gorgeous! You have a new fan here
As a newbie. I REALLY needed to hear the part about just.. trusting the process. Knowing that it's going to look bad at first. That the first few layers aren't going to look great. I keep having to stop myself from being discouraged and stopping bc I don't like how it looks at the beginning stages.
Yeah, there's a discipline to the process. The initial layers will never look like much, but once you cross the threshold where the forms start to take shape it gives you the motivation to press on. Then, after completing a few paintings, you won't even need the reinforcement through those early stages. You'll know from experience that the initial layers are just foundational and you won't expect them to look like something other than what they are.
Always a pleasure learning from you
Stunning. Thank you for your videos. I completely enjoy watching them and learning from you.
What an amazing talent you have. I am 80 years old. I’ve only been painted a few years. I’m self taught I do landscapes and portraits in watercolour and paint landscapes and oils. I’ve never tried acrylics. I have acrylic paints, but I’ve never tried them but seeing what you can do I definitely need to give it a try. Thank you for sharing all your talent.. keep up the amazing work you’re doing and God bless you.❤️
hello ❤❤❤😢🎉🎉😂😂❤❤❤
Fantastic and helpful! What a beautiful job you have done on this. Then again all your work is fabulous! 😊
Wonderful work,It’s not very often that something like this catches my eye.
Your art is absolutely gorgeous! Can’t wrap my head around how talented you are!!!
Beautiful artwork and thank you for so many excellent tips!
You are a master with the acrylics I salute you ❤❤
You are a terrific artist who puts amazing details in all of your pictures and beautiful from start to finish
❤Thank you so much ❤️The painting is breathtakingly beautiful!
God bless you and your content/ministry, girl!! 💜
This was great! Thanks for sharing the process.
Outstanding detail, and the end result is mind blowing.
What a beautiful painting!! thank you so much for everything you share with us, it's so very helpful! 🥰
Wow so helpful! and encouraging knowing the first layers are rubbish even for you. The spray paint really ramps up the values! The gas mask is necessary for all the spraying. You have already given enough. Do not give your health. very helpful and practical!
Its not a gas mask. Its a respirator, Spraying water based thru an airbrush wont kill you. Its the big sprayers where you might need a mask.
your technique and style is very inspiring, you make us all unspoken. super talented !
Love that you tell us the techniques, thank you!!!
You work is just so gorgeous. The painting is detailed and fluid, so lifelike....❤
You make painting look so easy. This is one of my favorite paintings… BEAUTIFUL, BEAUTIFUL. You are a GREAT ARTIST….Bravo Great Job…….
Amazing artist and your art is beyond what I have seen all this years! Always have a passion for wildlife. The explanation are great and well done. Thank you.
I love this tutorial. It explains how and when and helps a lot. Thank you.
beautiful piece of art... loved it so much❤
Your art is breathtaking! Just beautiful!
Your paintings are most beautiful. I'd like to thank you for sharing your hints and tricks you've learned along the way, very kind of you.
Awesome! Awesome ! Painting. Love your work !
Breathtaking work of art
Exquisite and cruelty free to boot, heart-felt congratulations !
I love all of your videos and paintings.
The hours you went through to just get this beautiful piece painted has to be overwhelming. Im proud of you. I actually found a better way to use my talent to bank. This is so inspiring though. Great job
Absolutely beautiful!
Wish I had a talent like this. Wow you’re good!
You have got such a beautiful talent. Thank you for sharing
Incredibly beautiful, thank you ❤
Stunning painting and great tips! I’m just about to try painting feathers for the first time and definitely need to get some gesso first! Thanks and congratulations!
Your wildlife is wonderful. That's been my love since childhood also. I'll have to study your techniques. Tricks of the trade greatly facilitate the final product, not to mention making the process so much more enjoyable!
I cried… to be sooo talented. I ❤️ your work.
Phenomenal work, I am a sculptor but enjoy picking up pencils and paints from time to time, but your work is another level.
That painting is BRILLIANT
absolutely stunning
Thank you so much for your tutorials. Very helpful!
Amazing work of art 😲😍
Wow I'm stunned what a blessing to being so talented
Fabulous video, fantastic painting! Thanks for sharing.
Thank you. I learned so much from you. I was doing some of the things you recommended, but not enough. You were so inspiring.
Really enjoyed watching this.
Would love to go painting with you. 😄
This is exactly the thing I love about painting.
Wow! Amazing work. I love the air brushing work done towards the end. Just beautiful :)
You’re so talented !! This is very impressive
Magnificent! Love your painting ❣️
I really enjoyed this video. Your talent is amazing along with your patience and attention to detail. Wow! I aspire to paint like you one day. One painting must take a long time to finish. I’m guessing weeks. Thanks for this inspiration!
Its just magnificent ❤ it looks so lively and real just from mobile screen then imagine the aura and the vibe everyone will get from this canvas art right in front of them just remarkable ❤😌👌🐆
Absolutely amazing and beautiful
I can only say INCREDIBLE. When I started I use to sketch a variety of apex animals, and not I focus on fluid art and modern abstract painting. I LOVE this!!!
Stunning!! Wow! 😍😍😍😍
Stunning work!
Stunning artwork!!
This is one of the most informative & useful painting videos I have found, so firstly thank you for that.
It has really opened my eyes on techniques etc. My background is miniature & model painting with acrylics, at which I’ve become moderately reasonable over the years. I have occasionally tried to dabble in some canvases occasionally and really struggled. I’ve watched many acrylic painting videos, but many aren’t that different to some of the oils in approach.
But hearing you talk of priming, colour blocking, washes, glazes, layers, the ugly phase, and even using an airbrush, absolutely feeds into my armoury of learned skills. Your explanation has brought some clarity that I haven’t found elsewhere and am now inspired to go and try some more painting.
Thank you for your time
that was the most interesting and informative video that I have had the pleasure of watching, the best nearly 18 minutes of my time well spent, I learnt a lot. still cant paint to save my life but what a beautiful finished product that anyone would be proud to hand in their home.
Have just now put my name down to be notified about your brush set. Have not ever done acrylic ever before but am wanting to give it a go after watching your videos. I have tried cheap acrylics and found that when I add colors on under painting colors are disturbed underneath and end up muddying and blending instead of being nice, vivid and staying the right colors. Will give it a go soon hopefully. Your painting is breathtakingly stunning.
Wow! Great painting and great informative video. Thank you.
Absolutely beautiful ❤
To get the smoothest surface, you should start out with using a portrait single weave canvas. Then add your gesso to it like you regularly do. You could also try painting on hardboard or glass instead of canvas.
This was so helpful. Thank you for sharing valuable experience knowledge ❤
Amazing talent!, thank you for your insights!
Love your art and your videos have So many great tips, thank you!
