Mark, you are amazing. You are giving the best advice possible to other painters. Good for you. I'm a professional painter and have made a good living for years. Never have I seen such honesty and good info given out, the way you do. You are truly an artist in every way. Helen
An artist does NOT mix globs of paint up into the ferrule, that is just not done; also, you hold the brush like a pen, not high up at the top, that gives you no control!
@@larrywakeman4371 Sorry, but what? Many artists throughout history were (and still probably are) painting with 10+ feet long brushes. Oddly enough there are no recorded complaints of a lack of control from those masters.
Thanks so much for another beautiful painting, and tutorial. It's pretty amazing that 90% of the vase is greys, browns, and muddy colours, and there's just a hint of gold/orange near the end.
Hello Mark. I’ve been an amateur artist for years and I’ve only just recently tried to start oil painting. Your videos have literally changed my life with regards to this pursuit. I know that sounds overly dramatic but I had serious retina issues that left me blind a couple years ago and never thought I’d ever see again let alone paint. Still very much an amateur but love these videos, the information, and the inspiration. Ill stop this embarrassing gushing now, lol. just wanted to say thanks
Evelyn Dolan ty. 11 invasive eye surgeries over a 9 month period, ending with cataract procedures in both eyes. Long story but 5 months of that I was clinically blind. I still see like I am under water do to all the damage but so thankful I can see at all. 🙏👍🏻
A born artist with lot of dedication and with a good heart ❤️ to show others the the way you traveling in detail. Great artists have a great heart too. So beautifully explained. No any music disturbance too. Thanks
Thank you Mark for another great video- it was just magically, none of the color you have mix look “ copper” but it came through! Great narrative, packed with valuable wisdom 😍- I am inspired!
I have been painting in watercolor but now I want to paint in oil. I feel so lucky because I found your videos, you are amazing!!!! Thank you for doing this. I am following your videos to learn the basis and then I will more classes with you
Thank you Mark, your way of painting is so helpful, I'm in Ireland, trying to teach myself thanks so much for this demonstration.glad to hear your feeling better.
Mark, You are just fantastic! I recently discovered you and I've already learned so much, thanks a million for sharing all this knowledge!! Love your work and your way of teaching! Marie
When I was young at university for art, I assumed we would get this kind of instruction. What was I thinking, just the assumption of someone young? I was sadly mistaken. Thank you Sir, for giving us what many of us did not get at University!’
Wow, that is stunning work, and although I'm an acrylic painter, there is still, indeed so much to learn just by watching and listening. The techniques you describe are just as important in acrylic painting : values, color mixing, painting dark to light, etc. etc. The handling of the paint is the biggest difference as far as I can tell in oil vs. acrylic. Question? What do you do with all that paint that is still on your pallet? That's a lot of wasted paint?
Thank you so much. What is your dark color.It looks like Burnt Unber,but you must ahve blue and alizarin in that mix.Do you? I really enjoyed this. I tend to paint too fast,then have to repair.This will slow me down.
El suyo parece mas verdadero que el de la foto,sufro porque pierdo parte de sus explicaciones.Sus videos son fascinantes. Gracias,saludos desde Argentina
20:38 - Looks like a finial ( 'finny-ull' ). They are decorative, often rod-like or conical structures found on domed buildings (like mosques) and on the tops of urns or lidded vases - and other stuff, too: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Finial
GREAT DEMO! ...QUESTION: At the very end, like almost the last sentence you said "So you can imagine, if you were painting that up close, you'd want to fix all of that." You were referring to the abstract strokes, and I just want to be sure that what you really are saying is that we DON'T want to fix all of that right? Are you really saying that up close it's messy.. but at a proper distance it's not a mess.... it looks "right"? Thank you.
I seem to be always getting a glare on my color checker. What I mean is that if I hold my hand above and in front of it like you suggested, it always seems to darken. Will some glare always be present? If so, what is an execrable amount of glare to have?
@blueone black It does not bleed through the paint. I have the same color pencil in that hue. I only experienced drawing with it on stained canvas, not bare. Hope this helps!
So inspired.... I’m so Quito’s regarding paint wet on wet. I find it difficult to not mix the colors. Example when I do reflections. Titanium white gets grayish ore what color I have on the top layer. I assume I apply the color incorrect.... smudge the brush ore something
This is a very helpful video. Any ideas which color palette Mark is using? I'd guess cadmium yellow light, cadmium red medium, ultramarine blue, raw umber, and white and black. Not sure about the blue though.
Very instructive but I have a question. Ater a video is made, do you ever review it and edit it before release? I do have personal qualms about what people do in conversations that bother me. Review and omit the unnecessary...ahs, and ahs, etc. About your presentation and painting... Informative and beautiful, couldn`t be better.
Very beautiful works! What colors are you using on your pallette? It would help if i could know what colors your using please. I'm a new subscriber. I Love your paintings!!
How do you darken a color without losing the color's intensity? Ive seen intense, bright colors like turquoise portrayed in shadows in paintings that is still identifiable as turquoise, but whenever I try to darken a turquoise with orange or red, the color changes too much.

@@larrywakeman4371 Take a deep breath Larry and just allow that realisation that not everyone works the same way you think they should to sink in.
@@larrywakeman4371 Let's see your work, Larry. Yeah, throw some more stones. Idiot. Mark is a master at his craft. You're a keyboard troll.

You should do more painting demos! It really helps show the concepts you talk about

How would you paint a wicker basket? It seems so complicated. Can you give a demonstration? Great videos, thanks!
Mark. I have used your method and you cannot go wrong with it. Thank you.
Excellent instruction, I've really struggled with most of the issues of a "novice" painter. Thanks for sharing

i always mix my colors on the fly, i hate having pre-prepared colors! also thank you!
Fantastic

Question: How to paint reflective surfaces?
Answer: use a color-checker and proportional divider.
Looks great! Love your channel
Great job!
Amazing 👏 🙀 😯 😮
Mark u are great master .Thank u so much 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
Fantástico, el parecido logrado es salvaje!!!!
brilliant
Can you do a portrait demo ?
🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏 can never thank you enough
Awesome painting. It is drawn on canvas or canvas paper?
Do you ever recommend doing a wash or underpainting with acrylic? What is the purpose of using acrylic?
Beautiful!!!!
Amazing 🤩🤩
what is the purpose of holding the brush so far back? would you not get more accuracy with a tighter grip?
Excellent video ! What medium and what colours did you use ,please?
What kind of pencil are you using to draw on the canvas?
Stabilo all surface color pencil in 8044 Yellow
@blueone black It does not bleed through the paint. I have the same color pencil in that hue. I only experienced drawing with it on stained canvas, not bare. Hope this helps!
@blueone black You're welcome! I totally understand about not ruining a painting. Good luck on your art :)
That was very helpful... Thanks so much...
You are fantastic thank you so much.
So inspired.... I’m so Quito’s regarding paint wet on wet. I find it difficult to not mix the colors. Example when I do reflections. Titanium white gets grayish ore what color I have on the top layer. I assume I apply the color incorrect.... smudge the brush ore something
May I ask .....What is the disadvantages of using disposable paper palette?
This is a very helpful video. Any ideas which color palette Mark is using? I'd guess cadmium yellow light, cadmium red medium, ultramarine blue, raw umber, and white and black. Not sure about the blue though.
Thank you, very informative !

What surface do you paint on? I noticed that your canvas and your pallet are the same color, what color do you use, and why?
Nice work l like it super 👌
A strange question perhaps Mark, what is that pencil you are using? Is it some sort of oil or acrylic one?Thank you for all your videos/
Very beautiful works! What colors are you using on your pallette? It would help if i could know what colors your using please. I'm a new subscriber. I Love your paintings!!
Thanks i really enjoyed this video
Amazing
Thanks for sharing ❤️
How can I "blend" colours if my surface is dry? Do I necessarily need do again my colour and mix it with the one I'm putting on top? Thanks
