ART TUTORIAL - FULL PAINTING PROCESS - BATMAN

[@andyhowden7655]

You can see all the grime of Gotham city in the initial washes. Amazing technique. Amazing peice of art.

[@LovellArt]

Andy Howden thanks so much! So awesome to hear that! 🖤

[@SofiaPereira]

This video was pure joy to watch - from the intro to the final result. You take so many steps and use so many mediums and tools to achieve this style, never in my mind I thought of mixing pencils with ink, but oh boy, the end result is just epic. Your process is absolutely inspiring, keep up the awesome work Christopher!

[@LovellArt]

Thank you so much Sofia! Glad you enjoyed it :) xx

[@KitKatWiffleBallBat]

Dude is wicked talented. I'd have him draw up a sweet Bat Woman tattoo for me. Commission fee is probably like 500 and up for something like that.

[@sharky9493]

There is just one word for the paining...FANTASTIC! Also great video, it encourages me to paint more. Thank you so much for your inspiration! You are the BEST!

[@frankrodriguez2272]

Mr. Lovell, a great pleasure to watch over your shoulder sir. I too, combine mixed media too finish my artistic pieces. I thank you for reinspiring me to try even more than what I'm used to. You mentioned, while airbrushing, that you wish the airflow was a little less. i by sheer laziness, left some airbrush paint to dry on my Paasche single action A/B. Now you get the airflow you were looking to achieve on the bottom of batman's cape, hope this helps. Thank you again, your stuff is superior!

King Christopher 🔥

[@LovellArt]

diana banana aww you!! 🤗

[@ehall6042]

I can't thank you enough for your generosity in sharing how you work. I recently rediscovered my love of drawing and I very much I doubt I would be making much progress at all if it weren't for amazing artists taking the time to make videos like these. You do such beautiful work and it's a pure joy to watch your process. Fascinating and inspiring - thank you so much.

[@chris-Ribble-Roots]

That moon is incredible, the whole piece is but I really like that moon.

[@LovellArt]

chris Bryson thank you! Glad you like it! New vid coming in a few days! 🤗

[@supermansded]

I am glad to see that you also use Prismacolor pencils on canvas. I love using mixed media. I recently completed a portrait of the Joker on canvas using acrylic, colored pencils, paint pens and strangely enough, layers of fabric markers for the clothing; which I later detailed with paint and paint pens. I thought I could attach a picture of it in the comments, but I guess not. Anyway, enough about me. I thoroughly engaged in the video and learned some techniques along the way. The finished painting was absolutely brilliant!

[@ArtOfJCBenson]

Fantastic work and great video, you have by far captured batman in a most epic way dude the best batman I've ever seen created by an artist. Well done. Peace, love and hugs always dude. Jessica x

[@seungheetahimik583]

okay, yeah you got my like in the intro... you're amazing

[@LovellArt]

Hahaha thank you! You're amazing too!!!

[@shannontoomer2384]

Just came to your channel (was in my reccomended) I must say I am very shocked you don't have more subscribers. Your work is top quality and I thoroughly enjoyed watching it all come together. I look forward to watching more of your videos

[@LovellArt]

Shannon Toomer thanks so much Shannon! Hopefully I can build this channel up a bit this year. Lots more to come! Xx

[@RealBlackEssence]

Hi, Chris! This is the very first of your videos that I have ever seen of you and your artwork! Granted, I am a polar opposite of the kind of art that I do and am into! Dark and grungey is something I can't do! LOL! I'm more of cute and happy and hearts and bunnies and rainbow sparkles! LOL! But, I think you are a TRULY amazing artist and blessed with enormous talent! Plus, you're a geek like me! LOL! I hope you will upload more, honestly. I would love to know what you have been working on in 2018 and if you need video ideas, just simple Artist-life update videos could definitely fill in for days when you don't feel like filming art processes! Just something to thinking about! I'll been keeping and eye on you as I am VERY impressed with your work even though it scares me. LOL!♥

[@MillersRetroArt]

Thank you for these videos, After spending a lot of time working digitally, this is helping me transition back to traditional art, with some absolutley fantastic tips and tutorials. Thanka again for all the hard work you do!

[@LovellArt]

Aww Miller! Thank you! It’s an absolute pleasure, I’m returning to this channel very soon with my best content yet. I’m putting the final touches to a new video and then I will routinely start posting again on here. Best of luck with your art journey!!

[@moonlightgator541]

I love this kind of videos! Great job.

[@LovellArt]

Moonlight Gator thank you!! More coming soon!! X

[@lonironi3754]

Where did you learn to use HARD AS NAILS on your canvas? Very intriguing idea.

[@LovellArt]

ilona watson thank you! I love textures on a canvas and it just dawned on me that it might be a good thing to use to save on paint. Works well :)

[@jobes4525]

Absolutely glued to this. You took us on a journey of what ifs? Will this work? Stopped breathing when you made the first rain Mark, but looks amazing! TY for sharing. You're a true inspiration! Xx

[@LovellArt]

Thank you!! Glad you like the format. I very rarely plan out or know exactly what I'm going for when I start a painting. I like to adapt and be spontaneous along the way. I think it makes for a far more real video also. :) xx

[@cattvaughn]

Hey Christopher, I am very glad to see you back and know you are alright! You are getting better and better with your videos and if people are like me, I love to come along and see where people live and stores where you go (like the print shop.) As I have commented before that your manners as well as artwork are incredible. You don't give yourself enough credit. This painting would have taken other artists weeks if not months to complete. I feel you have to take chances too. The rain turned out great! Congratulations for your wonderful arrival in April too. If that cat doesn't behave, I guess I will have to adopt him for the babies sake. Ha ha. Thanks again for another wonderful video.

[@LovellArt]

Hello there Catt!! Thank you so much for the lovely kind words and well wishes! Very exciting times ahead for me :) I'm glad you like the way I do my vids, I somethings think it all might be too much for some people, but over all the feedback seems very positive. I just make type of video I would love to see my favourite artists make, sadly none of my fave artists bother doing anything like youtube! Got LOADS of other videos in the works so more coming very soon! :D xx

[@LovellArt]

Also Panda is awaiting collection from you!! >_

[@cattvaughn]

Alright!! I have some other cats, so she would be welcome... We love our animals and the baby will love her too. We all need encouragement and you have mine... See you next video.

[@jeremyelkington655]

Fantastic work! A real joy to watch! As someone who sticks to oil paint only when painting it was really intriguing to see the mix of mediums in the work, especially the use of markers. Might have to give that a go! Cheers!

[@LovellArt]

Jeremy Elkington thanks so much! I'm dying to give oils a go, I haven't in years! Glad you like the video!! 🤗

[@Indigo_moon]

I really love your fantasy work....but all your work is incredible. Your VLOG style video is really funny and interesting. Especially for someone like me that watches alot of boring art tutorials. Most people just show the procedure and do a voice over. I know you are very busy and you have to spend time where you can make money, but I really think if you posted more videos you would get a ton of views....and that's how you get subscribers to Patreon. Thank you for posting this video. I can't wait to see another one!

[@poulsonarrow]

Would love to see this under a UV black light . ! Christopher just a idea about doing the rain , use acetate film over the painting to confirm where you would want that rain ?

Great video... and congratulations on the soon to be arrival to the family. There will definitely be a change to your work schedule once that happens, in fact you'll probably be taking a break until you physically adjust to the new environment. If you are like me you'll be doing a lot of new art with the focus on the new family member. Best wishes to you and your family and I look forward to your next video.

[@LovellArt]

Hello John!! Thank you so much for the well wishes! Yes its going to be a big change very soon, its very hard to predict how productive I will be able to be. I'm hoping in a way it might make me more productive as I will not be able to allow myself to procrastinate as every spare art moment will be so valuable to me! Either way I will prevail!! :D

[@AL-bh4pm]

I love the way you combine media. Very creative and practical. Congrats on the kid! I see you posted this last year but I don't see a Patreon come up for you, so maybe you're still on the fence about it. It could be good, a lot of artists that I follow do livestreams or give away wallpapers, etc, to their patrons. For a couple of successful examples, check out the Patreons of such artists as Danielle Corsetto, Tom Siddell, and Jeph Jacques. Another alternative could be Gumroad (for that check out Modern Day James, he's the only one I can think of off the top of my head right now), I'm starting to see that crop up more. Good luck!

[@gmm6106]

Hi. Any tips on breaking the habit of over working the same area?

[@LovellArt]

Batoul Gharaibeh haha I could do with a tip like that myself! I can get very carried away over tweaking things. I guess you just have to make that call and try and stop when it please your eye. Maybe start on another area and then look back at the section causing you bother later with a fresh eye! 👁
