I like to kid around sometimes, but I wanted to compliment you on your ability to teach oil painting. I think outstanding is the right word. You are easy to follow, and understand. I think a lot of teachers tend to spout off what they know, rather than actually teach somebody something. You are a teacher-truly.

Love all your educational videos showing us how to but I love this so much, watching your process is just lovely, your recent landscapes were so calming and enjoyable too I’ve watched them many times even though I don’t do landscapes. Please if you can consider doing more of these demo’s. I’ve not painted in a long time since I lost my baby boy but watching you paint brings back some joy in me. ❤

I get so much out of your lessons ! It's fantastic. In a world full of rubbish, your instruction and insight stands out as meaningful & inspirational. I have a constant struggle with dust in studio, so have made a section of studio into a drying area with plastic drop sheets, so it's sealed of from dust etc. Wondering what you do to stop dust settling on wet paint, and if you no what Sargent did or any other masters past or present? I don't find facing them against wall that great an option. Thanks Dustin Stahle
@DrawMixPaint9 жыл бұрын
Dustin Stahle The facing-them-against-the-wall method works fine for me, and when I'm actually painting, using a vertical easel instead of a tilted-back easel makes a big difference. If I'm doing work that creates dust in my studio (like wood work), I would do that in a sealed-off section like you mention.

Nice. I have only dabbled in oil painting (many decades ago) but I want to start oil painting again. I know you said that you don't normally do all the paint mixing on the palette -ahead of time - as you did with this painting ... but as someone who has recently dabbled in digital painting, I think how you pre-mixed the various colors on your palette here is pretty cool. It reminds me of my recent digital painting (of a beautiful green pear!). I used a photo image of a beautiful green pear as a reference image and, working in Photoshop, I used the ink dropper tool to create a digital palette for myself. Created a layer, traced the pear, and then used my digital palette and a PShop paint brush to paint it. It came out nicely. I'm now going to paint the beautiful green pear in oil ... starting with only basic colors on the palette. Because that's part of the joy of painting in oil. And even though I only dabbled, decades ago, I was always Alla Prima. I like to be able to be intuitive and spontaneous... but I need time, too. I could never understand why anyone would want to work with fast-drying acrylics.

I like your work because of that style. Very nice!!! Oh, and if painting a pear, be sure to consume the "model" when done, then no one will ever see if it looks like it or not! LOL :D

I just stumbled upon your work and DVDs today while searching on line for solid tutorials on setting up an artist studio.This is a terrific pear painting. Love the bold, sensual brushwork. Do you ever scumble to softly diffuse edges within the shadows? When I look at an actual pear I'm not able to focus my attention equally along the edge on the shadow side. This would be an interesting philosophical discussion: how we see as humans, versus cameras. I suppose people all see things differently based on their optic nerves. Everyone is wired differently in terms of their "rods and cones." Your approach is cool, and very similar to many contemporary photo and hyper-realists in terms of color isolation. My hunch is that a good portion of classical naturalist painting is rooted in "optical color mixing", which mirrors nature. When one really studies the underlying aesthetic of a Velasquez or a Sargent edge manipulation seems to be a big component. Notice the dissolving edges at the bottom of this Sargent piece: uploads4.wikiart.org/images/john-singer-sargent/gondolier-1905.jpg I'm seeing the same thing taking place within this Velasquez -- there appears to be scumbled, broken brushstrokes breaking through the form of the hair and figure. In my eyes this piece mirrors how we see the world as humans, which is profoundly different from the camera. iamled.files.wordpress.com/2011/11/juan_pareja.jpg

Hey mark, when mixing your own paints with delq, when you've used all the paint in your jars, do you clean these jars out before mixing new paint in them. So my real question would be "What is your recommendation on refilling your own paint in previous used jars with sometimes paint that has dried inside?"
