I have had a serious video game addiction for most of my life. It was not until I turned 26 that I realized time is running out and I wanted something more important to do with my life. I have not touched my xbox for 3 months! I have been producing art almost every single day in sketches and in longer studies. I gotta say, you are huge inspiration.
BTW, I would love to see your newer work. Plus, what are your thought on John William Waterhouse? It is my current goal to attempt to replicate his palette paint selection, and his composition.
Great job, how's it going 2 years later?
I've been in a similar position, and now I'm trying to be more productive. I chose art because it's one of the only subjects I don't feel completely cynical about.
Watching on 2020!... Wow! Thank for sharing Cesar!...
I would love to see older sketch books, so those of us just starting out can be inspired by your progress.
Ceasar i want to see your bad works
I can't concentrate cause the woman behind you keeps staring at me, so creepy.
she is realistic
laila H not helping
I honestly thought she was a guest in his studio at first.
talk no jutsu
i was thinking she is Model not painting
Yeah, the woman behind Cesar thinks you're weird. It's on her shirt, so it must be true. (-;
the part where you imply art is freedom , inspires me, i download your videos , share them out and study them . you are the best
Thank you so much for your videos! I come from a corner in the world where an art museum is a 2-hour bus ride away, and I have been looking for my own style until I saw your videos and artwork. Since then I'm also trying to relearn the classical style and incorporate it with modern mixed media. I still have a long way to go so I look forward to learn more from you. Thanks again!
Love your sketchbooks. Very brave. Thank you. You are my go-to-guy for how to be great. Don’t go backwards.I need to know how you sharpen your skills”
I would enjoy seeing your latest artwork. Thanks for an interesting sketchbook journey.
Penting of women look very real!💚👍🤩
G-D has given you an extraordinary gift. Thank you for sharing your gift with us.
In love with your work. U r v good teacher thanx alot for being so honest.
you inspire me to push myself to be a better artist, thank you for sharing your art with the world:)
Thank you for sharing this. Marvelous insights!
The woman in the back looks so real 👏👏👏
I wan't to see your art journey please from past to present segmented in different milestones :)
I think it would be cool to see a sketchbook from before your time in Italy, to see how they have changed because of that education. Also, I dont know if you have done much sketching on your trips to Cuba. But I would love to see that♡
Sarah Woods i haven't done much sketching in Cuba, not an inspiring place for me.
Cesar Santos I think Im just wierd lol but...There is something about Cubans that are very inspiring to me. I would love to go there and paint one day. In my head I imagine a lot of hidden beauty beneath all the oppression. Im so curious what kind of art is being made there too. But, I do understand it not being inspiring for u.
i really like your work, also, you are talking about William Adolphe Bouguereau?, i prefer to see recent work on your sketchbooks, because there is more experience, but you can combine or compare old works with news ones maybe, great job !.
i have kept a sketch book from your advise and by watching your videos its been a year now and looking through the sketches that i had made i think i have improve a bet. I get frustrated but i kept on going. thanks.
Can you please share your earlier works.. From your early career as a student..it will b really inspiring for us as to how you progress during the years.. Thankyou😊
man thank you so much for sharing , much love from panama !! #ilovepainting
i love it
I wonder if you can share the studies you do in front of a painting and then see the final result. This would be very interesting to see and hear your comments on the process. I also would like to see more of your early work.
BTW, Thank you for shearing your knowledge and making this Vlog's
magnifico video!!! absolutamente maestro!!! me quito el sombrero.
I’ve been watching your videos on UA-cam lately and you have truly inspired me to grow as an artist. What I usually do now is take an non copy written photo off of pixabay or something like that and paint it. You have encouraged me to think deeper and explore my inner self to develop my skills way deeper than I’m used to. I really think that your art is an expression of yourself and I have been to plain and dull for too long. Somewhere along the way from high school to now I have lost my desire to grow and get better. To me, my journey is turned a new corner and I want to thank you for sharing your experiences!
You should do an old sketchbook tour next time then a newer one the next and go back and forth!!
Yes, yes! Old then new, and back and forth. Great idea!
Sebastian Tinajero There are lots of UA-camvideos for beginners and few who want to be great artists. I want to know how he trains himself
Sebastian Tinajero ń
That would be really interesting. Thanks for always inspiring me. X. G.
Cesar, you have done a man's job Sir. You have learned, lived, and shared your life with us. What more could we ask for. Myself, I feel lucky to have come across your path of travel. I have learned from your teachings; I have been inspired by you; and I have lived longer because of these video clips displaying the passion that you have for your life; your Art. I look forward to future clips from the "Life and Times of Cesar Santos -- Artist".
both about early and recent sketchbook works please. :)
Mr. Santos, you are not only a BRILLIANT artist, But a GREAT professor, as well... thank you for sharing your technical knowledge and your aesthetic philosophy!! I am fortunate to own all of your DvDs and I recommend them to everyone interested in painting.
My day is made when I see a new sketchbook tour. I say show some older works AND continue with newer stuff!
First of all, thanks for your great vlogs and DVDs. In your portrait dvd, it is hard to see the colors due to a dirty pallet. Would you mind doing a blog that shows these? Also I would love to see how you pre-mix and tube your colors. Many thanks in advance and thanks for your inspirational work.
Could you do a video on how to stay focused when your family and friends dont believe in you or dismiss your artistic ambitions.
dagoelius great theme, I'll keep this in mind. Thanks
Hola maestro. Gracias por compartir su conocimiento y talento. Ver un poco más del trabajo en sus comienzos sería perfecto. Adelante siempre
Chronological order with the sketchbooks, but would love to see a bit on more recent work. Thank You Cesar!!;*)
William Bouguereau Painting at right side😅😅😅
His planes of the head cast is sold out, but a good alternative is the John Asaro version. In fact the John Asaro planes of the head is better because it's a full head, not cut off in the back as the one Cesar is showing. Also John has just released a planes of the figure cast. It can be used to study the figure.
It's really inspiring to see how your learning has made your art what it is today. It is so easy to get carried away by seeing the end product without knowing all the learning and hard work that went into it. These videos give us a glimpse of how you went about your learning and will inspire us to do the same. Thank you for being so generous and sharing this precious knowledge with us.
Thank you so much for being so generous with your time, every video is a gem! Inspirational stuff.
It is perfect. So, may be you will print your sketchbooks like learning book for artists?
Would it be possible to see how you prep your sketch book for painting... type of paper and paint mediums etc?
Do you varnish your paintings in the sketchbook? Is it possible to do it? I really love your sketchbook tours.
My favorite segment! Thanks a lot! :)
fantastic! I wanna your sketchbook, its possible?
Thanks for a great sketchbook tour! Cesar, what kind of sketchbooks do you use? I'm asking because it would seem that the paper needs to be 'tough' enough to take oil paints (or whatever you use). Do you always put a coat of gesso and then a ground before painting on a sketchbook page?
Comer Duncan hi, my vlog Sketchbook Tips will answer those questions and more! Check it out.
Thanks Cesar! You're right, it has a wealth of info!
we want to see your newest sketchbook..and also any timelapes of sketch outside like in the market or any where
i'd like to see the ones that suck ^_^ it's inspiring to see the level of improvement..
8:05 can just mix colors on a page to find the color palettes
10:15 he put all colors used on another page to give context to how different the paint will look in palette vs how it looks when on the painting itself
Did you post the colors you use on your pallet? Not finding them.
Pensé que la mujer que tenias atrás de ti era real. Hasta que dijiste que era una pintura :0
Sir make more videos on sketchbook tour. Because it gives me an inspiration.
Wth I thought that lady was a real person. How does that look so real??
Hello, Cesar. I would love to see a REAL sketchbook of yours. The actual sketchbook you take with you on the metro, to doctor's appointments, while waiting in line at the bank, where you draw while waiting for your food at the restaurant, etc...
By that, I mean that I want to see your thinking DRAWINGS. Where you work out your composition studies, your thumbnails etc... You know? Your BOOK of SKETCHES. That's what I consider a sketchbook. I'm sure you don't sit at the coffee shop with a full oil palette, turpentine, prepping geso, and full set of brushes. These "Sketchbooks" you keep showing us, just seem to be a place where you make "FINISHED" smaller paintings.
I love your work. And that's why I'm intrested in seeing your drawings. Thanks.
I'm currently learning drawing/painting/textiles. Complete newbie beginner. I have loved watching your videos of this sketchbook, but would love to see your earlier works, perhaps even closer to the beginner stage :) I feel very incapable at the moment. Would love to see what your art looked like when you were less experienced :)

@CesarSantos
Hi Cesar! Can you talk about how to make painting a career? How to get into the art world, when an artist has no connections...like me. grazie mille.
That is very interesting,however with a little demonstration maybe can be more illustrative, about your method . Are theory but in practice, I like to watch you painting. Just talk is not enough !
Mr960silva there are my extensive instructional videos which shows every brushstroke and thoughts for about 20 hours.
Una pregunta, Cesar: Cómo haces para pintar directamente sobre el libro? Lo colocas sobre un caballete? O lo pintas primero y después lo dejas encuadernar? Sería interesante que hicieras un vídeo explicando la manera de pintar sobre el sketchbook. Mil gracias de antemano y saludos desde España!
Dani Dafgor pinto sobre el papel y mantengo el libro abierto. En caballete o sobre la mesa. Le pongo scotch para que no se cierre.
Mil gracias por la respuesta, maestro! Eres genial!
Hi Cesar could you please talk about the struggles and other feelings you go through while you are in the process of painting. Is it free flowing or are there lot of questions that you answer. I always find myself making abstract work just to feel the flow and realistic to learn and get the feeling of achievement.
Great video btw
i LOVE these video. Very inspiring. I would love to see both old and new sketchbooks. I think there's something to learn from both. Thank you! :)
Hello Cesar! When you were showing the page where you had painted the portrait in real time, you had those colors next to it that had been taken out of context, Was wondering if you could do a tutorial about that, because for me I often look at a model or just anything that I want to paint and have absolutely no idea what is the color that I need to use, this mostly happens indoors.
these vlogs are shorter and thought provoking, if you want to watch me paint while I explain in detail here is my instructional video, close to 20 hours of instructions. streamlineartvideo.com/products/cesar-santos-secrets-of-portrait-painting
Thank you for your inspiration and guidance.
This is the 21st Century, I support you and I'm glad you are fighting back for true artistic expression that is a real pillar of civilization and freedom, medieval believes and ignorance go hand in hand.
Maestro Santos, admiro tu ardua labor, tu dedicación para realizar tus vídeos y compartir tus conocimientos.
Que posibilidad hay de que tus vídeos se puedan traducir al español,el ingles se me ha dificultado por mi corta audición.Gracias, saludos desde Colombia.
How long did it take you to do this whole sketchbook? Beautiful art! I really enjoy seeing the process and journey. It's very inspiring! I would like to see more of the older works! I can't afford school so I am trying to teach myself. It helps me know that it's only through much practice you get good and not magic. haha
I LOVE your fearless commentary and I LOVE hearing from an artist that works like he has REAL skin in the game. I've got a couple of things I'd love to hear your opinion on--
On one hand, there's the modern tendency to dismiss representational art, but also many representational schools are mad-dogmatic about traditional methods and techniques almost for their own sake? You seem to be making the most of this tension with your Syncratism?
Also, how do you deal with periods where you feel creatively resistant?
How do you feel about the value of participating in art competitions?
You are my favorite youtuber when talking about art and the person with most engaging words or "speeches" in this platform.
Watching one of your videos is better time spent than watching other ten random videos.
Some days I don't want to draw because I'm tired or lacking time, but I remember that as I have this much passion about art, others have too and I force myself to do even if a little thing and always end up not wanting to stop either haha.
I study alone and the situation around where I live is the worst possible if you want to get in touch with art school, a museum or a library and when you do it's so expensive, well we struggle but I'm aiming to draw or paint as good as you soon.
So, that's just a thanks letter and for me, "fascinating" is the word to describe your job here.
Cesar your work is awesome the portraits leap from the canvas/page. I found your channel this past week. I have learned some much from you. Thank you for sharing your knowledge. I would love to see more of your previous sketchbooks.
WHICH SKETCHBOOK IS THAT PLEASE SIR ANSWER I NEED HELP
Hello! do you use varnish on the finish layer?
Loved every minute of this series, definitely the art, but most especially all the insights you give along the way. Could be interesting to have a broader spectrum, seeing some earlier works where you are still figuring out a lot of these concepts, and bringing it up to present day. Either way, would love to see more sketchbook tours!
Great video Cesar!
Since I'm giving my first steps as an artist student, I think it would be inspiring to see some of your earlier work. Sometimes one can feel a bit discouraged at this stage, wondering if will ever improve enough to "make it" as a professional artist.
Thanks. I really appreciate what you are doing with these videos.
The amazing Cesar, thank you so much for so generously sharing your thought and your information . Please more, more, more . . . See you in june :-)
How is the woman on the left not even blinking?!
Manooo, pensei que tinha uma mulher sentada do lado dele. Depois de ver ela parada
por muito tempo imaginei que ela estava zoando kkk.
Demorei pra cair a ficha!
Pontoart como que escreve o nome do pintor que fez o quadro da coleção do amigo o que ele pintou direto por favor deixa ai obg desde já
show your 5 year old sketch book plzzzz
Your awesome! Thanks for the info!!!
I definitely want to see your earlier works.
Old sketchbooks, new sketchbooks...either/or...these videos are great and very motivational.
de verdad agradezco que tomes parte de tu tiempo para hacer estos videos, me han ayudado muchisimo... sin saberlo te has convertido en un gran maestro para mi, aunque no nos conozcamos... espero tener la oportunidad de verte en persona algun dia. Muchas gracias Cesar Santos... pd seria interesante ver tus sketchbooks de cuando eras mas joven :D
I want to see your earlier works por favor
I'm happy to say that while watching these sketchbook videos, I took one of my almost empty sketchbooks off the shelf and started drawing. Thank you for the inspiration- and for these great vids!
Waana see your bad works to get inspired
Holy shit, for a second I thought the woman behind you was real. Great painting.
Terrific channel Mr. Santos. I love your art works. It be nice to see some of your most recent work. Thank you for sharing.
I truly feel that i have understood and learnt more watching your sketchbooks than i have in my entire life 😂 thank u, blessings from Perú 🌎
Thank you, Cesar. Would you like to make a video about art studio lighting??
I love you Santos, you can totally inspire me and you have such a nice energy. Also i am trying to learn how to draw and paint by myself so it s very nice to hear that somebody also has such a passion for it, that it is worth trying
i really like this guy's painting ideas
I'd love to see your beginning works. Also where do you get your sketchbooks from. Or how do you transport and store them while they dry. I imagine you work a few booms at a time. Thanks again for the amazing video.
I would like to see your older sketchbook
Thanks for your videos. Im learning so much!!! You are being a great reference for me!
do more sketchbook videos please!!!! I really want to see the high school sketchbook!!!
super.
I would love to see an old sketch book and particularly if you could show us how you developed your portrait work down through the years , and the advice you would give to yourself in regards a particular page of your old sketchbook. Thank you
5:45 write on painting when brining to museum to see Whihc areas need what change
4:50 old masters have a very defined shadow shape and 1 light source

I love your videos! Do you use acrylic paint in your sketchbooks?
I love these tours! And I would like to see both. Perhaps throwing parts of older ones in between videos could be interesting
9:00 !!!
You're helping me begin to understand who I am as an artist, thank you for doing these.
