Hi, I am the son of two artists and began painting in my hometown of Richmond, Virginia before I could walk. I was a rare combination of artist and athlete so I moved to Los Angeles in 2008 to play football for USC. I left the team my sophomore year to focus on painting and filmmaking, applying the same focus and discipline from my football career to my art. I primarily work in oils, and spend most free days painting "en plein air" in my new home of Sarasota Florida.

You know he is a good teacher when, he has a whole big canvas like mural of nicolas cage
Facts tho-
I laughed so hard when I noticed that
That could be used for the movie director. Ah Nic, can you do that one for me ? Oh wait, do that one on the left.
@@peterpickguitar acting reference sheet 🤣🤣
Haha I keep getting distracted by it
Fantastic! Now everyone can paint Jerma!
TRUE.
HES EVERYWHERE I CANNOT ESCAPE
I KNOW UA-cam ONLY RECOMMENDED ME THIS BECAUSE OF JERMA I KNOW IT
I have a suggestion that can help a lot. Paint with the biggest brush the size allow, because more area is covered faster and forces us to stay away from details and to be creative with the brush strokes adding quality to the brush strokes. Try to stay away from small brushes as much as possible.
true!
I never thought of that, I’ll give it a go!
@@IsMe-Abby The larger brush is for the first phase of painting. The details go at the end.
Ugh this makes me angry but i know it's beneficial ):c
thanks for this !
I clicked bcuz I thought you were painting Jerma, but stayed for some great art teachings 🤟🤟
I was looking for this I also clicked for jerma
Oh no I thought I was the only one 😹 art & Jermite geeks unite! Cool video too…
I’m so grateful I’m not the only one that is unhinged enough to see it
no i see it that’s why he so cute
same 😭
I love how all the most popular comments are just ppl thanking him but the most recent ones are about jerma
OH MY GOD
As a digital artist i always wanted to make my paintings look like theyre old and hand-drawn. I wasn't good at painting portraits either, even though i know the planes of the head. This exercise is just amazing!! My portraits look better! Thank you so much!
Same just me looking at my pfp thinking its just not good enough😭😭😭
Omg same here 😢
The amount of speed I had clicking this video when I saw the thumbnail and thought it was Jerma, its not. But I watched through the entire thing and I don't regret it. Thanks for the tips dude
loogame!
It's amazing that you can continually come up with good tips for painting. I know it must be hard to present content so regularly. Thank you so much for your wonderful encouragement and great tips!
too many people think art is about whatever you want it to be..and that ruined it for me...i wish public school didn't teach this way and treated it more like a science.
@@musicpatron1693 i think thats restricting though? because genuinely art is whatever u want it to be
@@molbert9200 well in the beginning...the foundations are everything...taht really needs to be emphasized before being freed out into the wild..imho
We were told to constantly consider development of a portrait by half closing your eyes. [Computers were uncommon.]
Therefore, this makes complete sense. Excellent suggestion.
The other point that was always driven home, was that the most important part of getting the mouth right, was to focus on the line between the lips. Once that's correct the lips follow naturally.
In all your work I've seen so far, the mouth is distracting in that it's not correct. The mouth line is too short length wise, while the lips are comparatively too "plump'.
So the proportions are out both horizontally and vertically.
This affects the resemblance considerably.
I otherwise appreciate watching you work.
What a sweet comment 😭
One of the hardest things is to transition between drawing and painting. Painting requires understanding of the shapes, while drawing makes you more focused on lines.
No only shapes it needs understanding a whole amount of color and anatomy under skin of skin like doing a mbbs for skin 😂😂
Never read something more wrong than this lol, shapes for drawing are essential, lines alone are meaningless, and lines themselves are basically shaped.
@@dagan8659I think they meant drawing makes you work more in the 2d and painting is more 3d. Of course there's many other things to consider but I'm just saying
can say, my hobby is to draw, but I REALLY wanna learn how to paint.
As your drawing, focus on shapes and think in 3D and form and NOT in lines. That's how you should think if you want to create anything that is 3D regardless of medium. It didn't click for me until i started doing focusing on form and perspective. Try that and see where it goes!
IS THAT JERMA
How nice of you to paint Jerma985.
Thank god Im not the only one seeing jerma I thought I was insane
i thought that was jerma for a second
I’ve never had the confidence to even TRY a portrait painting. Here I go I guess. Paint Coach, give me strength😂
I hope you've begun!
It’s best to start with a face that’s familiar but someone you don’t care about, like some celebrity you’re not a huge fan of.
How did it go?
@@claires9100 tried my little sister. Looked more like a very sick version of my sister wearing a Freddy mask 😅😅 I think I’ll stick to landscapes for now lol
@@Yarnlife417 haha! Well at least you gave it a shot! Good for you.
You can always try again later! Enjoy your landscapes!
Thank you Chris for all your videos. I just started oil painting in March, having never done ANY art before. I am 64 and thought I had zero artistic ability. Family and friends are amazed when they see my painting after following your videos. I feel like I am looking at a miracle after I complete any of your tutorials! Keep posting and adding classes!
Great explanations and demonstrations. You have a gift for teaching and making it very relatable and doable. Thanks for all.
Glad it was helpful!
I clicked on this video cuz i thought you were painting jerma. Now im gonna do this exercise just to paint jerma
This inspired me to paint Jerma
Doing this now since my toddler is taking a nap! Thanks for the push Chris!
You got this!
@@paintcoach I can't thank you enough man. I repainted a small portrait I did last week using this technique to start it off and the improvement I got from it is insane! Side by side they look like different artists painted them, but it was just me a few days apart!
@@shaunwilliams4950 Lol trust me I know. I found this channel last year and it's helped me a lot.
For a moment i thought this was a Jerma portrait
I thought the thumbnail was jerma
clicked because thought the thumbnail was Jerma, stayed for the awesome art advice. subbed :)
I have a BA in Art, emphasis painting & none of my professors back then taught what you (and workshop leader) have done in nine minutes. I have learned SO much. Many thanks 🙏🏼
Thank you so much Chris, this exercise gives me courage to actually try and paint a portrait.
The thumbnail looks strikingly similar to Jerma
Great Jerma painting in the thumbnail
This was so incredibly helpful! Starting with more saturated colours for skin tones is exactly the tip I needed to hear. All my skin colours always turn out way a little greyish and I didn't know how to fix it. Thanks so much! 👍
Backgrounds- I just learned about Joseph Albers’ colour perception excercises too, and exactly how much adjacent colours completely change how we perceive a colour. They’re like colour-based optical illusions, and some are really mindblowing even after I know how it works. I guess that really drove home the ‘background first’ rule.
who is this jerma985 everyones talking about
She is bad news. Stay away from her
This is a terrific exercise to strengthen one's painting skills. Thanks for the reminder that practice makes perfect.
I got jermbaited
having the biggest realisation about my work rn. THANK U
That's Jerma
You're so right about painting exercises being something that transcends skill. I've been drawing and painting since I was very young, but revisiting a beginning art class at a college level has me revisiting technical practices that I needed to review.
Tons of solid advice in under 10 minutes. Thank you so much! I’ll be keeping this in mind for art practice.
I like the Sargent on the shelf in the background.
Thank you, this is amazing and you’ll never believe how much this help me honestly.
I tried this out last night. A fast one hour portrait. I could see the benefit.
You gained yourself a new subscriber! I've been painting for years now, but hardly ever took the time to practice fundimentals like this. I'm definitely going to try this out as soon as possible.
You are so good at this. Thank you for the inspiration and confidence you provide to us all too with your detailed explanations and tips.
Can’t wait to try this out. Been working on the 100 heads challenge and I like the idea of including an oil painting using this technique. Thanks so much
Insane how making the portrait look less perfect and realistic… makes it look more perfect and realistic 🤯👌🏻
This just got me all excited to paint!! Amazing
I am preparing to use oil paints for the first time, and I'm feeling very inspired by your content! Thank you for sharing your wisdom through these videos!
I love your tips and advices. Learning techniques on my own sometimes are hard but your tutorial videos make me want to paint up a whole new painting, your very inspiring. thanks!
That’s literally jerma
idk why but i thought this was going to be painting jerma
Great lesson! I've gotten so used to working from photo ref & have always had a very accurate eye so I developed the bad habit of just drawing or painting from the center outward. It can get you a likeness but eventually when you want to design new characters or work more quickly, it's def faster to start with the structure of the head first
Yes, I want to go out and try it in your workshop.
Love your guidance - it always inspires me to pick up a brush and keep at it
I appreciate you for posting this! I've struggled with realism HARD and I hope this helps level up my game!
I’ve had the most fun I’ve EVER had with painting in the 7 hours since discovering your channel. Дякую!! :]
Starting with high saturation and progressing to desaturation is the best advice in this video.👍🏻
Thank you sooo much I was having trouble making the facial structure and the shadows! You are such a good teacher! Thank you again! 😀
I'm so glad I found this channel! I needed this exercise.
I’ve been wanting to paint a little bit of realism and from your lesson, I’m gonna do a self portrait as well❤️ thanks for the tip coach!👍🏻
This is fantastic thanks Chris.
found this in my reccomended just when i needed it!
just started painting in my art school and was seeking extra help on the faces, thank you so much !! :)
Thank you so much for wonderful advice ❤
Love your energy and presentation skills. Excellent!
THIS SO SOOOOOO LIFE CHANGING
I know how to do portraits but sometimes when I haven't drawn for years I forget how to block in values (or I think I've forgotten.) This reminds me what to do and to stop overthinking.
Painting really does help manage over thinking.
bro the desaturate tip makes so much sense, always struggled with that, adding too much black by accident killing my colors, etc, thank you
Love this exercise
Oh what a fun exercise....thank you.
Thank you SO MUCH! This clip really helped me understand how to construct the portrait.
Thank you. This helps me a lot
Thank you, sir!
I tried this for my first portrait and it turned out so good so far
your words are clear, but i really appreciate the visual demo as a kind of solidifier.
Omg I've just tried using your methods and they actually helped me a lot. I've practised oil painting for a few weeks and it was a disaster as I always started with details such as the eyes and nose. it took me weeks to finish just one painting and it looks so cartoon 😂 then I tried your methods today and it was so much easier and better. It's also a lot more time-saving.
Thanks a lot for saving my life 😊
Your explanation and demonstration is really great and easy to follow. Thank you for the amazing video!
Wow you are a great teacher thank you
Great! Your methods are clear and simple, but sure! Thank you!
Came across your work today for the first time, subscribed instantly. Appreciate the instruction.
Beautiful lesson...invaluable and motivating!
Thank you teacher
This actually looks like a lot of fun!
We did an exercise in my college oil painting class called “Mudheads” and this is pretty much exactly what she taught us! Thank you for this video, it refreshed the idea in my mind; to group shadows up, start with blocking in lights and dark ignoring features, and to slowly tweak your work until you’re happy with it! Time to get painting 😄
This video inspires me so much, I feel like painting good is possible for me
I recently started painting portraits and it's really nice to know the way I went about it is an actual technique
This vid really helped to remind me of things I already knew and not to focus so much on details so thanks!
I find that when most start painting portraits we kind of glorify the face and block out most of what was learned by focusing on painting it right/perfect and then getting frustrated when it doesn't work out
I like the idea going of vibrant to neutral. Always thought of working up to highlights (dark to light) to pop it at the end. Interested in where value and chroma intersect or cross over or....
You're tips are great... I always learn something new.
The colors you choose look so good togther
Thank you!
I’m digging the content you make for your subscribers. I am thankful for subscribing to you.
Thank you!!! I work with oils and one of the things that I do that makes it difficult for myself is focusing on the details too early, I already knew I did this but your video helped me understand how to put the foundations of a painting into a better perspective if that makes sense, thanks a ton!!
Thanks for these tips, I will definitely start using them
I'm starting with oil paintings and this Helps me a lot. Thanks for the video!
You make it look easy
Thank you and it also made me realize that people with glasses have a blur type effect and can actually adapt to painting more easily… when you have a lot of detail like with 4K tv it can distract you from the shadowing… so that’s pretty cool ❤
I clicked cause it looked like jerma
it looks so easy...
your tips are really helpful, thank you!
Thank you really helped me
Thanks, Chris!
Thanks coach
I really like your style of painting Chris. It looks so effortless but turns out looking magical
He really is a coach man... What teaching skills.. I wish my mathematics teacher would be the same...
Love this video. Thanks
