Painting a Winter Landscape with Zorn's Limited Palette. Cesar Santos vlog 074

[@tshobe7833]

If I had a ‘sketchbook’ anything like Cesar’s... I’d be calling it a ‘portfolio’!

[@laowaistudieschina7470]

wow, the hints of red in the foliage make the greenish color look really green!

[@ArtePro_Oficial]

Honestly, you have the best art channel ever :) Cheers, mate

[@artgeometrix6346]

This is a fantastic painting. Great tonal work here. Awesome.

[@DannySabraArt]

Cesar, You're an incredible inspiration! Because of you I'm sketching and painting daily. Thanks for sharing your art and creativity with all of us!

[@lisengel2498]

Its a very beautifull Nordic scenario that shows the beauty of warm and cool greys with subtile yellow and very soft red -

[@jeffhreid]

So subtle.the gradiations in the greys is very delicate. I would have struggled with not making mud. Amazed you could get the details in the signs in top of that wet paint without wiping the canvas. Remarkable depth giving such a limited spectrum. Bravo as always

[@goldeneastgun]

Very nice. I love the atmosphere and composition.

[@JeanEmar3]

More videos like this one Cesar plz Its great to see you paint landscapes! Cesar±Zorn±landscape= Coolest thing too see when its about keep thechniques simple and powerful!

[@lamanupailin]

Increíble como pintas con sólo esos cuatro colores, espectacular!!!!!!

[@hindihippy8255]

I aspire to be a painter like you. More than that i aspire to have the energy and mindset like yours. You are so motivated and passionate and that is so so inspiring. Thank you so much Cesar. ❤

[@mjaganart8318]

I see there u gradually increases the value of all areas , especially the cloudy/moody appearance and snowy texture added magic to the whole process. Completely calibrated the step by step and inch by inch..I learnt some thanks for your video sir.

[@rormoha5120]

It's so beautiful and so real

[@Theimpromptulife]

As always, most excellent!

[@pinecorey]

You know as well as I do.... This looks like a photographe. Wow man. Unbelievable ❤️😳

[@erdenizb]

OMG!!! Breathtaking. Thanks for sharing Cesar.

[@alphinart]

When I saw this on Instagram, I thought it was a photo for a second! All I can say is wow!! 😲

[@Me-yf9lt]

I didn’t realize you did landscapes. You did a super awesome job, was blow away.

[@HopiTrails1]

Cesar Santos, a masterful landscape ,love the tonalist quality and the subject still has your latin chaos element,love it,thanks for the inspiration

[@neilcramond3084]

Hi Cesar, You should definitely come to Scotland and paint the beautiful landscapes in the rain......

[@roathripper]

love that red light on the horizon.

[@PleinAirAdventureswithTezDower]

Beautiful work, Loved the atmosphere you created Cesar 🎨👌😊

[@soppdrake]

Greetings from a snowy Stockholm!

[@joshcmp952]

Man! You inspire me to become a better artist every time I watch another one of your videos. Thank you so much for sharing your insight in such a way that wakes up every sense that inspires creativity within me. Great stuff you got going! Look forward to the next. Thanks Cesar.

[@toequantumspace]

Thanks Cesar! Lovely scene, you are true Master.

[@russproctor9267]

Great to see you paint a departure from your usual portraiture Cesar. Looks awesome.

[@theart1776]

HELLO

[@sedepucho3240]

Wow what a nice art I like this art

[@cherylm1982]

Love your videos and bought the tee you were wearing. Thanks so much!

[@b4benimon]

love how you paint the depthness of back and forth and adding warm colors to the paintings~ painting environment sure is relax and less stressful than drawing specific person haha ~!

[@leanna5009]

ahh so gorgeous!!!!

[@masterpainters1706]

Amazing as always. And a happy new year to you too. I hope

[@jeremiaszbojanowski8595]

Absolutely fantastic. Your art confirms that now (in these times) we have the best artist in history. I wonder how would fantasy / sci-fi art look made by you. Oh, and don't forget to heat yourself in cold time! :) :D ❤

[@PleinAirAdventureswithTezDower]

Jeremiasz Bojanowski Yes i agree, His work is phenomenonal 😊🎨👌

[@michellelee8893]

Awesome!......while I LOVE your portrait videos I hope that you'll do more landscapes aswell!,,

[@Illusionaire1]

Loving this series, Cesar. It's interesting to notice how the lack of blue and green make this painting look much more desolate than the original photo, there is a big sense of solitude here! Lovely!

[@Tedzee8]

By Bringing peace and joy of painting I feel you're a Cousin of Bob Ross :)

[@mirtaxiomelyssandin2001]

Agradable ver que has pintado Solna en un modo romántico y representativo como el de Zorn. Saludos desde Suecia.

[@dshaiqy]

Bravo Cesar

[@CarolumArt]

Very nice and sensitive at the same time. Your ART very Special!

[@chompers11]

that grass is crazy

[@WildCraftAdventures]

Looks amazing, loved this painting! Anything connected with nature is always awesome! Thanks for sharing, looking forward to more! =)

[@mripman.6021]

" ALERT" GENIUS AT WORK.

[@LeoPlaw]

Champion result Cesar!

[@pellis8985]

Fantastic demo. Loved watching you apply the principles from the last video to the landscape. Learned a lot from watching your brushwork. Thanks! Also, I got your portrait painting video as a Christmas present and I love it!

[@luisfernandez-izquierdo502]

Fantastic demo! I love your "let's wrap this video up" section too :-)

[@Tedzee8]

So big amount of energy you have :) great work !

[@snapperlee8670]

I hope you do more landscapes!!......thank you

[@jorgelozanoprol]

Great as always, thanks for doing a landscape, i love your series in gouache travelling by train through america, hope you do it again.

[@seventhsun1]

Amazing.... I love your landscapes!

[@ralphmackenzie80]

A big fan of Cesar's work. The Zorn palette works well for a typical gray winter day. Wonder how well it would work for painting a bright, sunny winter day.

[@victoriatataryn1542]

Outstanding!

[@johnmanganaro3109]

Happy New Year, Cesar! I've been working on my limited pallet skills as well. It's a big goal for 2019. You inspired me last year to start working in a sketchbook rather than just on canvas all the time. It's a lot of fun to flip through and show people.

[@daniellerussomanno188]

I love this. By the way, I’m in upstate NY and still feel that way about snow and Zorn, too. This was a pleasure to watch.

[@grenader6409]

I like your portraits more :) you are talented and living master artist Good job!

[@daikayll1897]

Niccccccce Cesar. Nice, Thankyou.

[@jamg7920]

Exelente , muy buenos videos ... ¡Saludos desde Colombia! César santos

[@s.s.4046]

Sir your landscapes as good as portrait....

[@coopart1]

Enjoyable to watch, thanks Cesar !

[@MISHELLR]

Talvez deberíamos enter cambiar!!! Yo en Miami y tu en Montréal, Yo y’a no quiero saber nada de la nieve!!! 😝 Felicidades Cesar por tu canal Me fascina mucho tu trabajo Saludos desde Montréal Canadá 🇨🇦

[@daphnemarais1540]

Sooo impressive

[@daleshawn1910]

Phenomenal!

[@m00ftak]

Another great video. One small suggestions, since this video revolves around using a limited palette it would be useful to hear your thoughts on how you are mixing the specific colors you're using. Thanks!

[@bear3879]

Seriously dude..you trip me out. The kinda guy that I'd like to have a beer or two with. Keep on..keeping on.

[@Ramesh_009]

superb working omg

[@seanbrosmith3236]

Anders Zorn lived, worked and LOVED Mora Sweden, in Dalarna county....NOT Stockholm. Many of his paintings are of the people and country life in Dalarna, you should visit! I feel its Dalarna's amazing light, (in winter especially) that influences Zorns pallet...Love your work and channel

[@deniseewert6372]

I love your videos!

[@chamandeepsinghbatra3264]

Love it so much

[@friedricengravy6646]

Im always curious as to why u dont make these as paintings outside of ur sketchbook. They r great. Seems like ur body of work would b huge if so. Either way, beautiful art & ur wife does a wonderful job with her film contribution. Thanks for the content!!

[@mizostrengthsports7391]

Wow those paintbrushes, while i can't even afford one good quality paintbrush 😍😍😍

[@kidnewton]

You rock dude!

[@magdag6739]

I ❤️ it

[@joseortiz6255]

Increible Maestro...

[@purplehelm8853]

I'd love to have that brush collection!! Who's with me??

[@gilberthoste4315]

10/10 !!!

[@markthimesch09]

Always enjoy watching your videos, Mr. Santos because I learn so much. I see you paint in your sketch book quite often so this brings me to a question: I am wanting to learn to paint but am a little tight on budget to buy canvas. However, I have LOTS of pieces of Fabriano, ARCHES, and Stonehenge paper laying around. Would it be wise to practice painting on gessoed paper instead of regular canvas, or should I first go with canvas? Thanks for your time and keep doing what you do!

[@carolineullrich7323]

Cesar, have you seen the (guess you could say - hyper-realistic) stunning pastel painting a woman does of the icebergs? Reminds me of you, and the art work you 2 are capable of producing.

[@mr.pizzamarlon]

www.painting.cafe/app/paintimages/76018Dude.png I used only three colors and white and black. Let me know what you think Cesar Santos.

[@ineedclosure4163]

Very nice! I hope to get as good as this

[@bambeanie_zi]

This is so amazing and I can't wait to try this limited palette now. Another note: Do you varnish your paintings in your sketchbook? What do you use and/ or recommend for a varnish over oil paints in a sketchbook?

[@1989Goodspeed]

Briliant work! Do you have other Swedish artist influences?, like Hilma Af Klint, Gunnar Cyrén and Carl Larsson?

[@waxfreeointment2121]

Wow

[@raynoladominguez4730]

I love your videos. Do you ever do workshops or live learning events? I would love to attend such a thing.

[@artist_b.]

Very very nice art video...... Very interesting....o Amusing sir carry on.... I love your thinking poses..... Your draw is outstanding............your drawing omg 👩‍🎨 👇

[@victorpierrey4028]

Great to hear about Zorn ! Do you have other limited palette examples ?

[@Hueltiuatzin]

Do you think a still life can be painted with this palette? Would love to see a video in that!

[@alexandrebarrozo6424]

Fantastic, it reminds me of my years in Uppsala, freezing my Brazilian butt over there. One question: did you use different mixtures of turpentine and linseed oil throughout the painting? Like, a thin medium for the grey and black, and then an oilier medium for colors?

[@fri8601]

So good. I feel sick.

[@fahrettinresul2790]

super!!

[@jeanetteluhr1121]

Another awesome video. How long did it take to paint that? Is it all ala prima?

[@ralphhancock7449]

Nicely done! But I'm a bit conflicted in viewing this. I'm seeing two interest areas: the car, and the clump of grasses. It is hard to distinguish which is context for the other. Being more interested in natural forms than geometric forms, I want to have the grasses as my interest area. However the color tones are subdued, with no color punch standing out, only a mix of value contrasts. What was your take on the image? The rocks and trees also show similar contrast and interest, but are out of the area that one usually expects focal points to be (thirds). Likewise, the vanishing point for the road points to nothing. The concavity of the curving road cradles the grassy clump, so I expect the grasses to be the point of it all.

[@stefkadank-derpjr1453]

Seriously... this is beautiful. Good God almighty. The absolute beauty of nature even next to roadway with cars and road signage. I just started painting this year (age 54) and Im not great but I learned a lesson here. The end result of this painting was so magical to look at (artists are magicians instead of a rabbit out of a hat they pull a masterpiece out of thin air) Any Hoo, this painting touched my heart hard. I'm in Georgia and my husband is Colombian so we don't know snow that well either. Any chance you would recreate this larger on canvas?

[@toequantumspace]

Stefka Dank-Derp Jr hi! I'm 54 too. I started drawing a year and few month ago, and painting less than a year ago. It so much fun isn't it? I wish you good luck and great fun in your endeavors. I visited Georgia once (I live in Poland) and I was completely in love. You have so much beauty in your state. I love Savannah most, I made a trip from Atlanta there. So cool! Paint it all :) Are you on instagram? I'm @tomdraug , I have all my stuff there it's good for growth to get some feedback.

[@Kate-vd3hl]

Did you use reference? Amazing either way!

[@santocesart]

Of course, I have several pictures I took back then.

[@gulaydemirci6956]

👍💖

[@teozorrilla1933]

Hi Cesar, did you use clear gesso after the fixative, right?

[@michaelg.9216]

Dear Cesar, how many brushes did you use for this amazing painting??

[@santocesart]

🖐five

[@michaelg.9216]

@@santocesart Thanks for your reply, wish you the best!

[@drpharaoh1508]

I was in art school one day and teacher told me never used a black out of tube you have to make it out of blue and burnt umber to give the painting rich colors whats your say on that Cesar Santos ? thanks

[@raulrubencolunga5284]

Hi, I don't know what he would say, but I highly recommend you checking 'drawmixpaint' youtube channel. He (Mark Carder, the artist who runs the channel) uses a limited palette of ultramarine blue, burnt umber, red (I dont remember which), cadmium yellow and titanium white. He mixes black out of burnt umber + ult blue. He also teaches his own method of painting (all free youtube videos), and you can mix any color in the world (except extremely vivid ones, which are rare to use) with that limited palette

[@victorpierrey4028]

Did you visit the Zorn museum in Mora in sweden?

[@ildanrahmatullin9712]

крутооооооо!11!!!!!!!!!!11111!!!!!!!!1!!!!

[@elena9112]

Does this palette work because the yellow ochre leans green and the ivory black leans blue?

[@johnqclark5155]

You used fixative, but where did you use gesso? (see: 1:36)

[@gabivalen123]

Maestro ud es muy bueno haga por fabor un video en español grasias

[@jamescunningham4418]

nice
