  • How to Paint Hummingbirds with Oil Paints with Suzanne Barrett Justis
    Learn how to paint hummingbirds with oil paints with wildlife artist Suzanne Barrett Justis. Watch step by step as I block in the birds and their favorite flowers, Bee Balm with oils. I will take the painting from start to finish with all the fun fine detail, and you get to go along for the colorful ride!!! We will also pay mind to the scale of the tiny birds and their flowers as we paint to keep everything in proportion. This will be a fun and colorful journey, so let's go paint some ruby throated humming birds and bee balm.
    Most of the brushes I am using are Rosemary and Co Brushes. Here it the link to the their website www.rosemaryan...?u=5711a7
    as well as links to the actual brushes I was using
    for the lines in tail and wings, I love the Ivory Dagger and sword brushes here is the link for the daggers
    www.rosemaryan...
    The Domed Eclipse Filbert I was using can be found on this link....it's a wonderful little brush, great for both application and blending.

    the pure red sable in the 81 series was used for blending . I wanted to give you the link to this brush in case you are interested in getting one for yourself

    I also used several of the Eclipse long Filberts of various sizes, you can find them here

    and Ivory long filberts, my " work horse brush" I love them.

    Wonderful tutorial. After watching many times I bravely added some hummingbirds to my painting of heliconias. Although I consider I am woeful at drawing I did an awesome job thanks to your demo and my hummingbirds are beautiful. Now I know I can paint birds so thankyou so much.

      Oh wow. Thanks so much Warren and /or Kathy! I am so glad you found this tutorial helpful. I think Hummingbirds are such cute little pipsqueaks !! Such brazen little guys. I love them. I really should paint some more. If you are interested, I am teaching a workshop here in Kingsport, TN….it’s in May. I would love for you to join me!!

      Hi Amanda !! I have one Almost ready to upload to Patreon on the hummingbird I did at the art gallery in North Carolina. So stay tuned.
      As for the colors used in the flowers and leaves (bee balm) I used alizarin crimson, quinacridone red and magenta and some titanium white. The leaves have raw umber, sap green, kings blue, ultramarine blue. Cadmium green and titanium white. I hope that helps. Happy Painting!!

      Hi Amanda. The background was a green gray acrylic with the spray painted metallic pattern that I used a stencil to create. A run down on the birds is sap green. Olive green , titanium white ,...to create the iridescence I used a light orange and bright pink on the throat patch and used a maroon to make the individual feathers. I also used some turquoise The bee balm flowered had quinacridone red. Magenta. Alizarin crimson and permanent rose. I used and assortment of greens and blues in the foliage. I hope this helps. Thanks for stopping by and thanks for watching

      Ahh! OK I await with pleasure your next Hummingbird painting.
      Can you tell me please, did you paint on your first base coat or spray the green on, and how many layers did you put on before putting your stencils on.
      Thank you once again for your kindness in explaining things.

    • @SuzanneBarrettJustisArtist
      @SuzanneBarrettJustisArtist  4 роки тому +2

      Paul Semenoff hi Paul. What I did was....I used a gessoed linen canvas board and painted it a solid color of acrylic paint. I let it dry. I then had stenciled the back ground in with a metallic spray paint ...you can get the stencil at one of the large craft stores. I hope
      That helps. Maybe I should do another video on just THAT process, eh? Thanks for watching Paul. I hope you subscribe !!

    Love this! Hi-What is the site/page where we can see “real time”, longer versions of your paintings? I wanted to know about the hummingbirds as you roughed them in, then added colors over colors. Was that a la prima or over several days?
