Lovely channel, thank you for your hard work.
Wonderful job!
como disfruto de estos videos, son joyas para mi. Se me hizo super interesante lo que platicaste acerca de los pigmentos y la forma en que los molían dependiendo de para que los utilizaban, nunca había oido hablar de eso. Gracias por compartir tus conocimientos
Gracias por comentar y apoyar mi canal. 🙏🏼
...best art videos by far on youtube...very informative for those passionate about the classical methods...there should be a 5 thumbs up button lol thanks Luis !!!
Thank you for wonderful feedback!!! I appreciate all your support.
Excellent🌱
Thank you for this! It is truly appreciated! Your talent is amazing!
Thank you for your comments Leonidas! 🙏🏻
Thank you, very interesting
Thank you very much for this incredible video, Maestro Borrero. I couldn’t attend the Live presentation, but here I am enjoying. Your master copy is outstanding. What a marvellous work. 😲🙌 Qué preciosidad!
Thank you for all your support Brenda!!! I appreciate all your wonderful feedback. Saludos! 🙏🏻
You are a great teacher, thank you for those beautiful video's.
Great video, thank you maestro! It is very entertaining and educational... you're very talented. Keep it up!
Thank so much for such high quality content again! This is among very few really one of the most valuable and informative channels on youtube for my artistic development and growth at the moment.
Thank you for writing Lennart. I very much appreciate your feedback. It’s good to know that the channel is helping and inspiring other artists with a common interest. Best regards.
I use a very limited palette: cad-red, “white”, ochre, sienna, Venetian-red, burnt-sienna, Alizarin-Crimson, burnt-umber, ivory-black, Prussian-blue and sometimes Ultramarine. I use the colours as a pianist uses the keys. I imagine that if the old Masters were the New masters or were living today they would utilise whatever was available to them. You just have to imagine which components would yield the outcome that you will. Love the channel. Wonderful presentation.
Thank you for commenting Terrestial Inmate. 🙏🏻
This is AMAZING thank you
Gracias Luis es magnífica tu labor en tu canal magnífico técnico que eres. 🙏Saludos desde Cancun colega
Gracias por tus comentarios David!! Muchos Saludos. 🙏🏻
A few years ago in a trip to Madrid in Museum del Prado, i watch paintings of El Greco.
He especialized in Religious subjects. His technique is unique, so diferent from many others Artists in his timelife. Velazques or Rubens.
Thank you, very interesting. I've always been amazed by how free felt El Greco in using a standard and codified traditional venetian technique to reach original results, different from every one else. It would be great to study the differences between young and mature Tiziano's working method...
Thank you for commenting Gio. I am planning to do a live presentation on Titian’s techniques very soon. Best regards!!
Luis this was an amazing presentation! Bravo! Greetings from Crete :)
Thank for writing!! I appreciate your comments and support. In the near future I hope to collaborate on a joint project with your channel. Greetings!!!
@@LuisBorreroVisualArtist that would be great! Let me know 😊
Thanks again! I have some travel plans soon, but by the end of the summer we could plan something exciting. Best regards!!!
@@LuisBorreroVisualArtist I would love that!
Is it possible to find a soft cover copy like you have? The hardcovers are almost $200.
Thank you for this helpful video. I'm looking for red lake. Red lake is trans oxide red lake?
Hi from Greece! Incredible tutorials and videos. I just wanted to say that you pronounced El Greco's name correctly which is not an easy task! Seems like you do a lot of homework and research down to the very last detail which can take an awful lot of time and work! Congratulations for your academic approach and thank you for the enlightening videos.
Thank you for visiting my channel and commenting Sotiris: I really appreciate your positive feedback. Best regards!
very interesting, well explained compliments. A question please. Can you work on a orange background if the paintig has a first a second and a third floor? This technique is also raccomendet for panoramas? Thank you.
Buenas tardes! Me ha maravillado tu trabajo. ¿Qué tonos utilizaste para hacer la base rojiza anaranjada?
Thank you for this amazing,, instructive video! I'm wondering whether you let the undersketch dry before proceeding?
Hello Foley: Thank you for commenting. In this particular demo the surface is pretty absorbent, so the drawing dries quite rapidly because I am using mostly solvent. I moved on to the working up stage immediately.
Hi Luis, thanks again for the great content! How do you regulate the increase of fatness of the paint films during the painting process? How strict one should be with the fat over lean -rule, ie. should you make different painting medium for each layer etc.?
Hello Henri: Thank you for commenting? For this painting I used medium exclusively in the second layer only. In practice you should use a small amount of solvent in the first layer and hardly any medium at all, except for glazed passages. To create velaturas on the second layer you can drag the brush clean on a rag to reduce the amount of paint on your brush. Velazquez worked this way. You can also add chalk to your paint to make it more transparent. I don’t make different mediums for each individual layer.
@@LuisBorreroVisualArtist Thank you for the information 👍😊
can you tell us about the glazing medium that you have used?
Thank you for commenting Gilmar. I used washed linseed oil that has been allowed to thickened by exposure to air for a few weeks with a small amount of drier( litharge). This type of oil is described by Pacheco for red glazes. It makes the color very rich. The oil was not cooked with heat at all. It was thinned slightly with spike oil. This medium was used for this glaze only.
@@LuisBorreroVisualArtist excellent. We would be grateful if you made a video talking about these processes. Glazing Medium is a very interesting subject. Thanks.
You are an amazing artist! I’ve watched several of your videos, but I haven’t seen where you describe your tools for grinding your pigment. Is that a marble or granite slab? What about the muller? Where can you get these tools?
Hello Jeff: Thank you for commenting. I am using a traditional Porphyry stone. I purchased mine from Zecchi 👉🏻www.zecchi.it/#
@@LuisBorreroVisualArtist thank you!
