Hi Paint Coach! Weird question, but.... Can you do a tutorial on how to clean brushes? It takes me so long and I am not sure if there is a more efficient way. Also, how do you dispose of dirty gamsol or turpentine? In fact, a video on your pre- and post-painting routine would help so much! Thanks for your help!
I love your videos! Since I'm partially deaf, I would really appreciate it if you could add captions. Also, I'm getting my oil paints this week! I'm so excited to check them out!
I absolutely love your videos. The message is so simple but makes such a difference to the painting process. I've yet to progress to oils from acrylics but I'm using the same techniques; block out the shapes, thin to thick. So simple but what a difference to my paintings so far! Thank you !!
I tried to paint some sunset with some snow (bluish color due to it being in the shadow of buildings) clouds(purplish shadow with orange and yellow from the sun) and the sky (very light purple, very light pink(red), very light orange.) With the sun (orange, yellow, extremely high yellow that I still cant get right). Then some of the buildings being hit by the sun was orange and then having the shadows being in the blue right on the side. I blocked in the shapes and when I look at both the picture and the painting from afar, it looks great!! Then I gave up...it was too hard for me to complete. I'll have to retry it some other time. I'll start on something more simple. The thing that I could not wrap my head around was how to make the sky look like a seamless transition between colors. I realized then I should have fully painted in the sky first. When I realized the colors wasn't right I had to paint around the buildings I already put. I tried to at first but THAT IS WHEN I GAVE UP!! It'd be faster to restart lol.
Yeah what do I cover it with while it's sitting around? I mean, I am not finished with this and I want to set it somewhere, but there is dust and maybe cat hair in the air and it's still wet and I want to work on it, later or tomorrow and just setting it somewhere isn't enough to keep dust off of it, I don't mean a finished work in need of a seal
Hey there Paint Coach. Great video! Quick question, I accidentally bought "water mixable" oil varnish for my oil painting. Can I use this varnish or should I exchange it for oil varnish? I'd really appreciate some help on this. Thanks!
I have a question that could be answered by Chris or any Patreon of Paint Coach. Is the Level 1 tier appropriate for complete beginners? Is there any kind of structure to the tutorials?
Thanks for your videos, I'm learning a lot from them! As someone starting an art channel too, I was wondering if you could tell videos about your growth on UA-cam. I know it goes out a bit from what you talk here, but it's a topic rarely talked about. I'd love to hear more about your journey as an autonomous artist.
Hi Chris Do you ever mix some colour strings of different values before painting? Im just starting out and I find it easier to get into a state of flow when I have done some sort of colour preparation before getting into paiting.
I love your videos and tutorials! And I'm quite interested in your oil painting course... I have a question though: during the course, are you going to give the students feedbacks on their work? Or is it just a patreon thing? Thank you!
super glue every surface in your place then throw paintings at areas where paintings are desired, for extra security wildly fire a nail gun around your room.
3D is 3D. I think its an ego thing when people say portrait's are the most difficult. If anything I would say landscape's because it's lot's of little still life's. Ordered my first art book on friday. Alla prima 2, can hardly contain myself.
Nice thing about still life is there's no excuse for working from a photograph. You may not be able to get a model to sit for you for hours, but apples don't complain. You may not like getting bugs in your paint and taking walk by criticism doing plein air; but apples take to air conditioning and isolation quite well 😎
I hate setting up still lifes so much it almost keeps me from painting completely. I have to really push myself not to throw everything out of the window out of frustration

I am struggling with painting over paint / wet in wet. My paint just mixes on the board.

I think I can answer my own question. There's a link above to Paint Coach: Foundations of Oil Painting
Amazing video!
Glad you liked it

Hi, Chris! Your technique is really awesome! Would you recommend any book about values? Thank you!
Can you please tell how you convert your images into a flat planes? I mean what app or software you use?
Will this work for watercolors too?
Hi Chris

Beautiful !🌸🍃👍👍👍👍👏👏👏👏👏
Do u have any advice for speeding up painting and drawing curly hair
فديو رائع

I don’t give feedback in the course but there are videos in the course where I critique student samples
Tolk about ambiant light
Great video! Do you have any tips for a guy in a small apartment on where to keep his paintings as they dry?
When I was in a small apartment I would hang them on the wall with push pins
Double sided tape on walls and ceiling
super glue every surface in your place then throw paintings at areas where paintings are desired, for extra security wildly fire a nail gun around your room.
Nice one 👍

I find portraits the hardest personally and my ego in terms of my art skill is basically non existant lol
With a name like dorris I bet you would
All of them are the same difficulty.

Having audio problems??? What should I do? I really want to hear this information.
Hey coach looks like you're getting a lot of spam, a Spam account that is imitating your channel name.
Thank you
