Ive studied Sargent a lot. I can tell he actually made a thin foundation layer which dried quickly also he used clove oil and poppy seed oil on the subsequent layer which kept the paint wet indefinitely if he wanted. So in between sittings the layer wouldn't dry in all of his works save for a few small single just head portraits he painted all prima. Also the paint I think was way stiffer then we think of it now. Sargents palette was soaking with oils and other mediums such and poppy seed black oil linseed and stand oil. Stand oil was very important to Sargent I believe because it could make the paint have a uniform viscosity. He did not paint in thick layer which a lot of pages on the internet seem to suggest He painted in a way that he would have good coverage but economically. M most painting seem to be two layers only however but depending on the thickness of the previous layers might have painted three layers all wet into wet Also he painted initially iwith turpentine and color the turpentined would evaporate leaving the thickness of the initial paint out of the tube which then provided a great workable surface for blending especially cause the paint would stay where he put it and not be smearing in other plane of paint creating a muddy example.
See the warm earthy orange he leaves showing in the bottom left? I’m pretty sure that’s the tone of the whole canvas, left dry, before he painted the model on site, wet in wet. Using warm toned canvases may help get closer to his actual technique, which appears to be your goal :)
I'm 80yrs old portrait artist & a fan of Sargent all my life.Thank you for the video 👍
Love that raised eyebrow look
Could you actually talk more about the specifics of what you are doing in this painting such as how you start the background - what kind of wash, the colors on your palette, your brushes, thickness of paint, colors you are mixing? That would be so helpful.
I was thinking of asking the same question
I am really happy to see your videos its very beautiful painting
Hi, love your approach and your mellifluous narrative style.
Beautiful! you've really caught the sitter's slightly amused and quizzical expression!
Thank you Chelsea , you are both an amazing Artist and Teacher
Thanks for this! Glad to see part 2.
You made that look easy! Very talented!!!

you are a great artist 🎨
thanks a lot 💐
This is priceless!I’ve enjoyed every second of this video, thank you very much ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Awesome! Thank you for sharing. Love JS Sargent! 👍🙏❤️
Love your channel Chelsea. I'm glad you made mention to understanding the relativity in painting Not life size - Not sight size but Sargent's size as being imperative to understanding Sargent's process and practice and in making successful duplications in the likeness of Sargent ! Sargent is the grandest of painters and I remain an avid admirer of his dear friend Giovanni Boldini ! Best wishes - hope your well and life is spoiling you 🙏
Love ur voice overs. And your technique.

I keep meaning to do a master study of Sargent's Lady Agnew of Lochnaw, I love the fabric on it, so would prob focus on trying to study and paint the fabric as close as i can
Nice lesson.
Beautiful
Beautifull
Omg!!! I love it!!! I love John Singer Sargent, Carolyn Anderson and Jose Royo’s Style and wish to move more towards that broken (i) lower case I impressions and Classical sketches. The problem I’m having is drawing proportions, color mixing, and brushwork! Can you help me
WwwooooWww perfect 👏👏👏❤️❤️💚💙👑👑👑
I love to view you paint that painting study..
I like !
Hi Chelsea, I notice you use solvent to create washes. Do you worry about the toxicity of said solvents? I'm scared of getting cancer down the line, so I've been using linseed oil and avoiding turpentine as much as possible.
Painting like Sargent is worth getting cancer.
There are non toxic alternatives like Zest-it, which I use.
@@KristenRam yes, I have heard of zest it. Never used it might give it a try.
I don't know if you ever heard of water soluble oil paints but you might like them. Through the wonders of science they found a way to change the molecules of oil so that they are soluble in water. They are identical to regular oil paints, but no solvents or paint thinners are necessary. They are possibly very underrated. Just mentioning them.
@@RobertF- Those are interesting but not "wonders of science" since it's just that they added an emulsifier to the mix, and emulsifiers have been known for centuries, i.e. egg yolk.
بہت اچھی کوشش۔ آپ نے ماہرانہ انداز میں رنگ اور برش کا استعمال کیا۔
너무 잘그린다~ 맘에드네
Dear Chelsea, I like your style very much. Thanks for jaring this with us. As I m a german, my english is not good enough to hear the names of the paint you use for portrait. I cannot open your site you shown beyond your podcast. Would there be another possibility to get that names? Thank you very much. 🌹🙋♀️
Hi Chelsea I'm interested in the Schmid books. I'd like to know how the Alla Prima book differs from the Alla Prima II book. Thanks.
Super
What was the ratio of linseed oil to gamsol that you mentioned wanting to try? Was it 30/70 linseed to gamsol? Thanks (Maybe another viewer will recall.)
I thought Sargent worked by studying both the subject and canvas from a distance, stepping forward, then applying a stroke. Then returned to a position back from the canvas. I also don’t think he went right for the eyes. He described painting the eyes as “ dropping a poached egg on a plate”. I think he meant preparing the socket for the details to come.
Sargent painted the way you describe only when he worked from a live model. It's not required when making this kind of copy.
@@sketchartist1964 it’s never required in any painting, Sargent’s style was the way he painted.
@@user-st3vd5bf6g Not sure what you mean. Sargent painted standing up when he painted real people in the manner you describe, but it's not necessary to walk back and forth from the canvas when you're working from a photograph or print as we see in this demo.
👏🖤
Her left eye is longer width on the left eye with a sharp lift other eye lid.
also are you streching your own linen or buying some kind of panel
How long did it take to paint
con la calidad de sargent ,nooo un ejercicio sin amor
Alla prima or are you letting it dry in between?
Hi madam. I m pursuing my advanced diploma in painting. Please guide me for easy portrait nd exact color in old master painting s
🤓🖼️🧡
I want to paint with you or draw with you 🤓🖼️
I find that I can copy Sargent's work pretty well, but it's not so easy painting like him when I work from a real model. I've seen the work of other more modern painters who try to paint like Sargent but they never quite get the same look. I'm thinking of artists like Raymond Kinstler and Howard Sanden, but there are others. They seem to put in much more detail than Sargent did.
The right eye a bit too big, but you certainly got the overall likeness. Nice one…. 👍
PS Sargent would not have oiled out the painting with linseed or any oil cause he would not be able to control the brush strokes because the viscosity of linseed oil is to slippery for control He would have simple started thin withe turpentine medium and as the tour-evaporated he would use the appropriate oil for the viscosity he wanted
Giovanni Boldini, are you a fan?
what is your "handy photoshop trick"!
I was curious about this too.
Pretty good, yet Singer seems to use more juicy consistency of paint.
Nice video. I would suggest working on the roundness of the forehead if you decide to do more.
why’s she doing the debby ryan lmao
Your right eye is bigger.
This master copy would never be accepted at an atelier
