    Thank you, Emily, for sharing your painting approach. You really made me aware of many basics that I didn’t know. Mark teaches so many valuable things from his confidence, experienced viewpoint, and you taught many different ideas from your less experienced viewpoint. What I appreciate most of all is that you two are sharing both viewpoints, allowing us to absorb what we need based on where we are. I’m very new to oil painting, and want to achieve realistic portraits, but I’m sure I’ll try several still life paintings first (‘cause the figs won’t be hurt if I don’t represent them perfectly!). Thank you both for helping all of us struggling to gain new skills!

    Really enjoyed it. Your commentary was also very refreshing to hear. Your approach was really good, about you not being confident, and how you are trying to follow rules, and sometimes trying to break them, then trying to fix something. finally getting an awesome painting! It was like watching a race between how you were feeling inside, and how you were struggling outside, and just hoping you will make it, and then you do it!. It was very honest and Very very encouraging to all of us amateur artists. Mark is a great painter and a teacher. His techniques are unique.

  • @rutbrea5140
    @rutbrea5140 6 років тому

    I am not a professional painter, but I have been painting for years. There was a time when I could not practice my passion because I was raising a child on my own and going to school. A lot of different things were going on in my life. Now that I am older I feel this is my time before I die to pursue my dream, even if I don't make it to the top. But my passion is fulfilled in a wonderful way. I have painted from photograph as well as have drawn in different medias from life. Now, the oils and other medium I have painted from photographs. I am learning a lot from you guys. I am a self taught painter, have read many books and also watch practically every artist I can on You Tube. One can learn a lot from others. Mark is a great artist and fantastic teacher. I have painted wet on wet without even realizing it was alla-prima. Also impasto. By watching others I have learnt that I instinctively use these techniques on my own. I struggled, but I have done it and many people have told me that my paintings are awesome. I still don't feel confident. But I cannot pay an expensive school. Therefore, I will keep on watching other professionals and keep on practicing too until I leave this world. I have seen great masters work in museums and the Internet, I try to figure out what it is that some of these old master had to become so famous when I do not really think that their art were so great. My favorite is Rembrandt, Leonardo Da Vinci, Goya, Velazquez, and some others, but not all of them. I would like to try the impressionistic painting and emotion, because I am concern about the world problems. This is what I would love to do. Being able to paint like Rockwell, who painted everyday people and their lives. I also love Vincent Van Gogh, I think he was a great visionary, and he expressed his feeling in all his paintings. Most people, even today do not appreciate a great painter. I feel that to be a great painter one needs to see the world in all its beauty as well as in all the sufferings, and be able to paint these interpretations of life. Thank you for your teachings, I think that if you paint feelings with your knowledge Mark, you would be like the great Rembrandt and Vincent Van Gogh. Thank you

    I love it that Mark says you must do this and that -small steps, brushes for every shade etc. and at 73 i don't think I have enough time on this planet to perfect this technique. But there you are, bigger steps, two brushes and wonderful paintings. You're my kind of woman. I think I will have a go at this your way. Thank you.

    I absolutely loved watching this... Her painting turned out so lovely! Very very interesting and I thoroughly enjoyed it. I also learned so much just from watching and listening to her paint. The same things that Emily was saying that she obsesses over are very much the same for me and I loved seeing her just 'go for it' without stressing over the details. It was really refreshing for me - and I loved the result!

Overall a lovely painting. And Mark, that horse is just gorgeous! Wow.

    Really enjoyed the video Emily. It was refreshing to hear that you cant stay at the canvas for too long and that you have a break, coming back to it with fresh eyes. Ive been giving myself a hard time for drifting away and coming back to the painting. You have helped me understand my reasons for doing so. Its nice to see that-dont worry or obsess too much relaxed approach.I also watched and enjoyed your cup of coffee painting the other day.

The stream of consciousness about her process etc. is very entertaining. You should think about taking the show on the road. I'd pay. Thanks for the art. Oh, and I gotta say that I've spent a lot of time in hospital in the last few years (not to my liking) and if it wasn't for the nurses and the important work they (you) do the doctors would run amok. Kudos to you all.

    Definitely a nice painting. I need to try not blending so much too. The results on especially the onion look excellent. I'm almost afraid to mix all those in between steps though, as I feel I'm wasting paint. Mixing every color accurately as a result takes so much more time haha. Oh well, I'll get there eventually.. :)
    edit: Oh one more thing, the optical illusion of the dark lower part of the onion is really extraordinary. I constantly thought it would be too dark indeed.

  • @silentwitness9255
    @silentwitness9255 Рік тому

    My eyes seem to be telling me that the colors can seem much darker until the field is filled in darker colors. For instance when the table cloth was first painted it seemed so dark until more darks were painted. Or the first stroke on the inside field of the plate seemed way too dark. After all darks were added, it is like magic to see the table cloth now popping with a sense of space. This is what I think is being alluded to when they say “just laying in the color.” Because we are temporarily painting blindly. We are blind (or rather put at a disadvantage) to the details hidden by relative contrast.

    Another great look at this technique and the results from a student's perspective. I think it turned out really well. Curious to know if you use the Proportional Divider to make your initial sketch on the canvas or if your husband does it for you. It seemed like some of the shapes were a little different than the real life reference, BUT the essence of the scene was spot on - if you learned how to paint from your husband (and had no real prior skill or experience) - he is LEGIT the real deal. I love his videos and I think I will start training myself on this method. Because I have a little skill with painting already - I can only imagine how much better I will be if I get these techniques and ways of seeing under my belt. I loved the palette and all the hundreds of dots of paint - now I need to find the video that tells me why you needed all those dots. I don't think I've ever set colors out like that before. I wasn't too sure you would be able to match that "fluorescent" green on the figs - but I like your interpretation of the color. It worked even though it didn't match. I'm guessing that would be a had color to match. Would glazing work for something like that? Because, in real life, that green did seem to sort of move THROUGH some of the colors as well as sit on top of some of them. It was almost translucent in some areas. I think it would be hard to just translate that with opaque colors - so that's why I asked about glazing.
