I feel like I’ve just been enlightened. I really appreciate your wisdom at the end of the video, so insightful and so well said
I learned how to digital paint last year and got pretty decent pretty fast. Instead of following digital painters, I subscribed to traditional painters on YT . I am still learning but the thing is, the words you said is similar to the philosophy I have when approaching almost anything I learn. The last thing I did was a self portrait. I think it came out decent but you can tell the flaws. Since I learned so fast how to digital paint, I didn't bother learning the fundamentals. Now as I go back to them, my skills are jumping for each one I learn and implement!
Also, when I digital paint I try to keep it as close to traditional art as possible for now before using all the tools that digital art has. No Undo, No color pick, no reshape tool, no layers. Just painting until i feel like it's done.
excellent self commentary with painting...….. many thanks
Where were you my whole life! Awesome videos, I love your style and the “down to earth” commentaries :-). I also love how you sometimes “break the rules” and experiment, such as start with the light parts first in some videos, or paint on unprepared surfaces (like here) etc… just awesome… thank you!
I read that description and I have to say, please don't think like that. You are beautiful and your voice is very calming. I would love to learn from you. So please keep it up!
This is probably the most valuable video on value and color temperature i have seen. Thank you. It is great because you are not talking about them, but just doing it and telling us what you had in mind. I think that clicked something in me, hope so!
To me, I like a lot that type of video, with you talking (your voice is normal to us lol). Timelaps are nice, but with some commentaries is way more valuable in my opinion. Thank you
watching your paintings come to life is pure joy. So glad you have started voicing over. Thank you!
only four colors! blows my mind!! truly amazing....
John, you're as good as any artist on youtube, even Chelsea Lang, who I think is brilliant. And as I mentioned once, I really think those you do using just Indian Y, Napthol and Thalo are often your best, which is why I started using them also. My $10 a month Patreon is well spent. Keep it up man!
I like that you use the basic 3 colors. I enjoyed the end play of 'icing on the cake' process. Thank you. I just found your channel and Im a fan.
I have found a new favorite artist, and in this artist, a new inspiration... thank you for bringing meaning to life
I dont hate your face/voice my friend, im just glad that you are sharing your experiences and painting processes, and contemplating the great work, of course. Cheers from Argentina! and again, Thanks for sharing!
I’m late to the party, but this video is so inspiring and very helpful. Thank you John for taking the time, and letting us into your thought process a bit. Especially love the analogy at the end... who knew there were so many ways to solve a Rubiks... the mind can hardly imagine.
Lovely work, as usual.
Haha. Painting Three quarter head tilts is definitely my rubrics cube. Been down that rabbit hole awhile with not great results. Onward. Love the vid!
David, really enjoyed you describing your process as you are working. It's just fantastic seeing you draw and push the color around, bring the image to life. Saludos
I pay attention to every single stroke you make, yet I still come away thinking "how on earth did he do that?" This is an absolute joy to watch. Great work as always, John. Thanks for sharing. Ps Love to see how you treat a landscape and still life
I so appreciate you doing this. I purchased a small painting a couple of years ago to learn from you. At the time I asked if you did workshops. You did not, so this is not only very fulfilling but it is so well done. I learned more about your methods and the ending about Rubik's was much more that I have ever received taking a workshop from other artists. I hope you do more. They are of great value to me.
You are a very kind soul and a Great painter. Best wishes.
Very beautiful
Thank you so much! Love it, so much better when you narrate than just a time-lapse. It gives a little peek into the artist's mind. Thank you.
I like this new format of your videos: keep producing more! :)
I love your videos and your style. I love your confident brush work. It gives me something to aspire to
amazing and inspiring as always. i love the voiceover it's been so helpful. also your hands are so beautiful???//??
anyway, thank you for sharing king!!
I've been binging your videos tonight and found this video. Loved that you shared your process and it was really helpful to see the reference as well. Particularly when it came to seeing how you simplified everything. Also what you said at the end was awesome :)
Thanks John! for sharing your thinking, really really helpful. I'm trying to break free of slavish objectivity, you're really helping me. It's Much appreciated
Your advice was golden. I really connected with it because it’s true. Thanks 🤗
I always love to hear and watch your insights about painting. The end result is so wonderful, very nice and calming colors with relaxed brush work. Amazing as always!
I would looooove to see more videos like this, I've been a huge fan since 3 years ago that I found your channel
youre so freaking cool and this was a really inspiring experience 🥰 thank you!
I've got so much going on and have so many things to do and yet.... so I watched. very nice video and I appreciate your words and your style. Thanks.
I watch many UA-cam artists and this is one of my favorite videos. Love the insight on how you approach your work. Are your other videos like this on patreon?
I'm loving this
I've gotten back into oil painting and this is nice
Brilliant video! I saw the thumb earlier and thought it was going to be another motivating speed paint vid, ended up being much more. Thanks for your insight into your process and mindset about your work. About painting on Aluminum, I worked in automotive paint store and we always recommended between 400 and 600 grit for bare metal, but that was to spray an etch primmer and then a fill primer and so on for body repair. I am sure you already know this but the other thing I recommend which kinda breaks flow is to let the first layer tack up a bit before moving ahead to prevent lifting.
Jocuri de umbre si lumini , culori , precizie absoluta . Maini de aur ! Superb , superb !
Outstanding job. I love hearing your thought process.
Best video I’ve seen all week !
Fantastic work again, you are a inspiration to me, thank you 😁
that's what i need.

I'm still learning from you, if only I had the confidence to actually create often.
Confidence is honestly a constant struggle for me. My internal dialogue goes like this, "What if it comes out bad?" "It doesn't matter if it comes out bad." "But then it will have been a waste of time and paint." "No it won't because you will have been painting." and on and on. The argument doesn't end until I take the tiny steps towards working: laying out a palette, printing a photo reference, starting a loose sketch. Then I don't have to argue anymore because the painting is happening.
HA! That internal monologue plauges me as well , There’s a bit of insanity to it all .
Ahhh thank you sm for taking the time to make your videos!!!, you have no idea how helpful and inspirational they are
really enjoyed the voice over , looking forward to your next video :)
Love the painting, and your narration was very insightful. Really enjoyed watching.
I love watching you paint!
👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 thank you!
Aaaaah, I love it. You're my favourite artist damn
Amazing ❤️
This is brilliant and so informative, probably the best and most useful video ive seen ,thankyou
Awesome!
Excellent, I always pick-up a couple new things watching your videos! Thanks
Loved this.
Superbe 🎨🎶🎵
thanx john for all the effort putting out the videos and sharing your thoughts. i feel touched ( much more than a cynical bastard like me would normally admid...)
I am so in awe of you !!!!
Great video and painting, as usual. Left unanswered, though, was how you got your chair back after the break?
Amazing
Awesome
Bravo 🎨🎶🎵
Спасибо вам.
This was just what I needed today. Thank you.
👍
You are fantastic John! Do you mix any medium with your paints?
I use solvent-free gel usually.
Ineffable.👏❤️🙏
Toujours autant magnifique 🎨merci pour ce partage L Artiste 🎶🎵
I have used acrylic for a long time and have always wanted to transition to oil buh just never knew where to start you've always been my favorite painter and helped me alot with my acrylic so hoping to learn how to oil paint from your videos as well 🙂 my only questions so far is did you have to wait for the painting to dry to continue layering? Or did you use a specific solvent?
Bonjour🙏c est un plaisir à vous voir peindre🎶🎵😘
"Comrades?"
Yep.
Just curious! Do you do/would you do portraits for commission? How much would they go for at this size?
I'm not doing portrait commissions, but thanks for asking.
@@LarrivaArt good to know! Thank you for responding. I’ve loved your art here on UA-cam for a few years now! ❤️
this title made me laugh idk why 😭
❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
How do you think of color and value at the same time? Or is there just some point that you see the light and just compare the following strokes to a completed section?
Amazing and beautiful artwork!! i love your videos and I was wondering what do you use to paint on and what do you use to clean your brushes?? I fine cleaning brushes with oil paint is pain to keep clean.
I usually paint of shellacked hardboard and I actually don't clean my brushes. I use cheapo student brushes and just leave them submerged in the walnut oil when I'm not using them. Soap and water work well enough to clean them, if you need to.
Respec!
Swear to god I saw a pair of hands just like these in Orlando one time
Really nice work ! Can you tell me what kind of brush you’re using? Thank you
Do you add oil alk over your panel before starting painting ?? I dont know if it's i'm wrong but i saw that in some of your other videos . What do you add all over your panel before starting ?
It's just walnut oil. I used to like a slippery, less thirsty surface but not so much these days.
John do you only use walnut oil, and galkyd gel as your mediums?
Yes, except I use Gamblin's solvent-free gel, not galkyd. And sometimes I use nothing at all.
Can someone tell me if what he's doing is what we call wet on wet/alla prima ? Or what technique is it ? I LOVE IT , i want to learn more about it 🤩
Yes. Wet on wet. :)
@@LarrivaArt So do you use verry loose brushes to make this kind of style ?
@@marceloo_2714 -I- do, but it isn't a requirement for wet on wet.
what kind color did you use??indian yellow and red and blue color name can you tell me
I think Titanium White, Indian Yellow, Napthol Red, and Phthalo Blue.
Do you use a flat brush for soft edges ?
Yes, I pretty much use a flat for everything.
🤤🤤🤤🤤
