The Process of Finishing a Painting. How I Painted

    After collaborating with ‪@ElenaSheidlina‬ on a different painting, I got inspired to make an allegorical composition to represent her in an imaginary environment. In this video I over-painted the shirt using the folds, the elements of drapery, to echo, to dance to give birth to my visual mysteries. Giving form to imagination and think about how we are one with the immediate environment.

    Cesar, I liked your point about making the observation being sometimes subordinate to what you know as in the case of the fold. A case of painting what you see unless it’s better to paint what you know. Not be a slave to reference.

    I never saw your videos before, I am glad to have found you. I really like your paintings, they are classic. Now a days there's a lot abstract which I think is a lot of nonsense. The world is real, not an abstract! Those who see the world around them that way is because they only see colors and mixtured of them. Minds of the depressive. You're more realistic and have a gift for the truth. I really appreciate art like this. I'm 73 years old today and have been painting since I was 13. I'm self taught, couldn't go to fine art school, blessed are "those" who could, for theirs is the world of art 🎨🎭, although there are many who without schooling have made great paintings. Their paintings is a gift for the unfortunate ones who are poor and unable to deal with the art business. This art business is for those who are part of the society's elite full of it who need to convince the nations abstract is how the world exist. Wrong! Great observations by the way.....

    @philiphoweartistwriter272 2 роки тому +1

    It's nice to see someone who has a lot of talent actually focusing on painting something creative, instead of simply copying photos. It's refreshing to see inventive work that is well crafted, rather than more gallery-based subjects which show little life and are primarily made to sell. Keep up the good work' open your mind to new ideas; stronger, more interesting pieces will come from it. Maybe try letting your brushwork show through more, but not like illustration. I did so much illustration work over the years, book covers, ad and corporate pieces, that it forced me to paint too tight and it's taken years to loosen up again. Brushwork can really add to the edges and help control focus. Your color and drawing are good, realism is there, maybe let it go a bit toward more inventive color. It's very hard to do but it can really enhance creative work.
    Thanks for sharing your techniques.

    Ceasar, I had a powerful awakening in 2018 and now I can see my own past lives and those of others. You are Michelangelo reincarnated. Thank you for your videos. You still look almost the same even today. My testimony. In 2018 I was very sick. At my worst point during my sickness, I had lost everything in my life. I was laying in a bed and could do nothing except stare at a wall or try to sleep, which didn't work well either. I could hardly move around even in our own house. I couldn't leave the house. I couldn't watch TV or listen to music.
    I couldn't read books. I was so wracked with anxiety and depression, and my body was so sick, that I could do nothing. I had lost all things. A moment came when the only thought I had left in my mind was that I knew I should pray. I had lost all preconceived notions about religion. I had lost all inhibitions, and when I prayed it was pure from my heart to God. I had no idea in my mind that I should pray in a certain way. I had no ideas about what people would think if I prayed.
    I had no ideas about how I felt about the fact that I was praying or even if my prayer would be heard or answered. I just knew I had to pray, and I did with all of my emotion and soul. I prayed for TRUTH. My prayer broke forth because everything I had been holding onto that was contrary to the presence and truth of God had snapped. And when it did I went straight to the source of my life. When I did this I was answered powerfully and with force. I heard a message as clear as a church bell. It came out of my chest, out of my heart, the center of my life and being. It said, "I AM WITH YOU ALWAYS." I had flung the doorway to the Kingdom of God WIDE OPEN, and there I found Jesus God and the Angels of Light smiling at me, saying it's about time you opened that door.
    We have been waiting for you and knocking for some time. I want to encourage you to throw aside all preconceived ideas and notions about God and prayer and to simply ask God for help. Ask God for the truth like a little child would ask his or he parents for the truth about something they needed to know. You have to humble yourself to the lowest point to reach through your own self-limitations so that you can hear and see God. God and Jesus are with you now and always shave been, but you hold yourself away from them. Humble yourself. Say to Yeshuah, "I know nothing, please teach me. Please help me understand." From the moment of my prayer to this I have been healed and guided not only by Jesus but by many Angels of Light.
    I was reminded and taught many truths. During the early part of my sickness, Jesus, God, and the Angels of Light revealed to me my past lives and how we have a final council between each life with our Lord Jesus Christ and the Angels of Light. The true cycle of life and death according to our Lord Jesus Christ is reincarnation, and this is a greatly misunderstood aspect of Christianity. Countless people who have had near-death experiences report this to be the truth.
    I asked about what we call ET's and I was told that they are just like us, we share in their DNA and yes they did interbreed with early humans many times. Everything, in reality, is made of the same Spirit of God like drops of water to an ocean. Our souls are the same as the souls of the other star children of God. They are just children of God the same as we are.
    They are our family. Not only that but our souls are capable of incarnating on different worlds as other beings besides humans and they are capable of incarnating as humans. There are star children who lived on other worlds from all over the universe incarnated on Earth right now as humans. Albert Einstein and Nicole Tesla were souls from other worlds. Do you doubt this? Humble yourself and ask Jesus, he will tell you the truth.
    Star Children from other worlds have free will just like human souls. God never forces any of us to choose. Star children know who God and Jesus are. They know what Angels are and the nature of the Kingdom of God, all they call them different names. This is known across the universe by enlightened Star Children because it is the only true structure and nature of God as laid down by our Lord Jesus Christ. Jesus God and the Angels of Light have been called other things on other worlds but they are the same.
    We are experiencing a large number of what we call UFO interactions around military facilities and craft. The pentagon have recently released video footage and reports on this. We are being assisted by Star children as we transition into a higher vibrational world, also called the second arrival of Jesus. The Star children that are protecting us know our Lord Jesus Christ and God and have been given permission to step in to prevent us from destroying ourselves in a nuclear war. That is why they are always around nuclear arms sites and have shown that they can shut down our weapons systems at will.
    They are so far ahead of us technologically that we can do nothing to match them or oppose them. If you raise in vibration enough by seeking Jesus and the truth of God above all other understanding you will find you are standing in the Kingdom of God and our Lord Jesus Christ God and the Angels of Light are with you now. Not only this but you also step back into the ability to talk to them through the Kingdom of God, or what we call prayer. Yes, it is possible to talk to each other through prayer as well as Jesus, God, and the Angels of Light. How could it not be so, we are all a part of the same Spirit of God. the Kingdom of God is at hand.
    When you do this you also regain the ability to talk to the Star Children through the Kingdom of God or what has been called psychic phenomena. Prayer is a psychic phenomenon. On the deepest level, everything is psychic. The Star Children that are protecting us are highly enlightened beings. I have a lot of writing on these topics and much more. Seek our Lord Jesus Christ and God, and ask for the TRUTH. You will be answered. I testify these things are real and true and given to me by Jesus, God, and the Angels of Light. In Jesus name Amen I write a book about my experience and you can read it for free on my website. Love and Light www.justask.church

      @@RedditNarrated_ NMA(new master academy), watts atelier, Proko, Draw with Chris, Marco Bucci, FZD design school, Sinix, Ahmed Aldoori.
      The first 2 are paid course.
      The last 4 are primarily design & illustration course ie. They pit emphasis on digital.
      If you can, try to find live classes for Steve Houston or Glenn Vilppu if you wanna learn painting/drawing human figures.
      There are also many other great teachers like Stephen Bauman(for potrait).
      You can see their interview on Proko channel.
