Mr. Klein, this is unlike anything I've seen from you in the past as regards your palette set-up. Have you changed your approach altogether, or just for this painting? Also, why do you usually put your yellows on the other side of white? Beautiful work as always.

I’d like to see the entire process of this painting….is it available?

Color values are exceptional here, those shadow colors make the painting. Thanks!

Amazing!

Hello, allow me to offer my own opinion on the study of glazing in order to clear up the great confusion surrounding a practice which, once understood, is quite simple. For me, there are two ways to apply it, and several expected effects. The first (most common) of which is the enamel itself. It is always applied in the shadows or dark parts of the work. Its goal, through the play of transparency, is to modify the intensity, or the nuance of the color on which it is applied without covering it completely: it is in no way a question of repentance. This method of glazing always darkens the color it is applied to; and depending on the effects we wish to obtain, this can sometimes be similar to Leonardo da Vinci's sfumato. It is always applied in thin layers. The second method consists of applying a naturally opaque color or by making it opaque with white or even applying pure white in order to accentuate the lights on the lightest parts of your painting such as the petals of your flowers in your demonstration for ex. We must then speak more of vélature (Vélatura, smoke in Italian), than of glaze. They provide luminous accents: shine of jewelry, glass, metal, etc. Or again, they envelop the subjects in an evanescent veil, an effect of fog, of opalescence: the veils of virgins, in ancient paintings, were painted in this way as well as the lace of certain garments.

Thank you Michael you have a way of teaching. You gave me a new understanding of Munsell too.

Extremely beautiful, love all the brush strokes ❤️ 😍

Learning a lot from you--also just kind of love how you'll be totally focused on something small and very reflexive and focused and then you feel something and do something really bold--some real passion in there along with that very calm voice.

I always learn from being able to observe you work. Thank you for sharing Michael.

This is the worst tutorial I’ve ever seen. your pallet has a million different colors and tones on it from years of work. You talk in circles. No explanation of the colors you use, if you are using any kind of medium and you title it “for beginners “ 😂 I hope your Patron is a hell of a lot more informative than this mess

so once this dries, will you scrape the flowers down and then go in for a second layer?

Leaves are so difficult , why ?

Your brush technique is wonderful.

So Beautifully done ❤ Thank you for sharing your process! This could apply to so many subjects.

Thank you Michael.

Thank you for position, I hope you would talk some about if you were using turps vs medium as the painting progressed. I took a class recently that talked about using the damvar linseed oil and turps, but a friend told me the damvar would eat my brushes and it seems to be true.

Watching you paint is poetry

Great demo just a bit too slow 😊

I don't understand the point of painting a photograph. The camera has already done the painting for you.

Great demo

Very happy making 👌👍😎

Michael, you make it look so easy and magical ! Absolutely amazing ❤

Wow beautiful demo!!

This is great! Thanks for sharing this extra piece of content.

Love this painting, this could be most days. The beauty is in it being so natural!

What! It never occurred to me. Damn, that’s helpful.

You are a consummate Master Sir! A pleasure to watch.

you are one of the best teachers out there Michael. Period. thankyou for doing what you are doing.

Well done Mike,throughly enjoy your videos.😊

Thank you! I so enjoy watching different methods of painting, especially portraiture. There’s no end to learning how to paint!

Thank you! I enjoyed this very much. I usually use a limited palette. You’ve opened up a whole new world. …just discovered your channel after following you on IG for a while.

Enjoy your videos, thank you keep them coming. What brand of “raw umber” do you use. I notice some brands have a Green bias. Want a yellow bias, as you said in an older video, a neutral yellow. Thanks again for the video.

You forgot how to also hold the palette 🎨 brushes 🧹 and Mahl Stick 🪄

Beautiful to watch you work. Thanks for sharing your process

thank you so much for sharing it !

Hi from CT Michael; as always, I learn from watching you and really appreciate you sharing.

Beautiful seascape, love that rock, gives deepness
