Digital Painting and Illustration Demonstration - full concept

[@saeidehrad5070]

it was such a blast watching you paint your style is vibrant and joyful please do break those records more often

[@3Dtexel]

This mentality to play and enjoy from imagination and trust in yourself is a very important milestone I need to learn. Thanks for opening my eye.

[@MEngelberts]

I'm a huge fan of the information and ideas you share. Glad to see you making more content, even if it is twice a year ;)

[@marcobucci]

A rare voice of reason. Thanks :)

[@dasarcanaeum]

@@marcobucci This is years old but I have to agree to Michael! Just started myself by learning myself and your vids! Thanks for sharing!!!

[@ramtilaakchintu8863]

Not only is the drawing exceptional, but I love the commentary also, lots to learn not just about digital painting but advice for real life too. Thank you so much and keep up the hard work, learning a lot here overall. C:

[@marcobucci]

Thanks a lot, Nahin. Was it Stephen King who said that art is a support system for life?

[@ramtilaakchintu8863]

Think it was indeed, he mentioned that Life isn't a support system for art, indeed it's the other way round.

[@marcobucci]

That was it!

[@smaydaartsdesigns1146]

You are the best i feel like i can repeat your videos over and over again and still learn something new! I always find the answer for my questions in your videos, I really wish you all the best!

[@Atman94]

Rewatched this a couple of times now, and decided you know what, it's high time to buy your book! And so I did, it turned out to be the right moment in my life to listen to it, so it will help me expand my ideas not just regarding creativity in general but life itself, existence itself and the beauty of it all . So thank you so much for everything that you're doing !

[@MFDOOOOM]

What book

[@tylerfontes]

subscribed and binge watched a few videos over the past couple days. helped a bunch my client was blown away by my last illustration. so glad people like you are out there helping people grow.

[@AniketRajAniketkno]

Your paintings give me a feeling of Calvin and Hobbes! I absolutely loved spending time with those comics! I just love your art style!

[@jezuzu2078]

The monster's face makes me smile. Can't explain it, he just looks so happy >.

[@fwoggieira]

your art sparks joy! its really lovely to hear you talk about painting, and the way you compare it to playing and having fun is really something that got to me. i really want to get into that mindset, you seem to be having such a blast as you work on this, and it just makes me smile a lot! thank you for putting out video! love this

[@georgesummers6627]

Thank you for putting this on this channel 😊

[@thitherword]

I'll say it again, I'm not a painter (though I have dabbled in art), but I just love watching your videos. I think I've been subscribed to you for about two years now. Last night I watched all of this again. Highly comfy and aesthetically pleasing and, of course, informative.

[@lorddolor6385]

Dude you have helped many people with your vídeos. I'm so thankful to you, Marco. Thank you from the bottom of my heart.

Simply beautiful as you paint. Beautifully pictures that you bring to life from scratch.

[@AlbertoAmoni]

I don't know about your other courses, but the "Digital painting" ones in SVS are wonderful! I've been meaning to open myself a blog just to review the course! Seriously dude, I'm very grateful for those videos, your approach to painting and art was just what I needed, I'll definitely check out your book!

[@marcobucci]

Glad you liked the SVS stuff! Those are definitely the most complete pre-recorded lessons I've ever put together.

[@Eiznek05designs]

I just discovered your channel yesterday. You give such great and in depth advice about the painting and drawing process that’s shedding light on things I had no idea about. Thank you for your videos!

[@LeontineGaasenbeek]

I love the feeling that you bring in your paintings. The abstraction is wonderful! Now I try and combine the theory of Value and color on one side and feeling on the other side together but often it confuses my paintings, and they end up looking muddy. chapeau to you Marco! keep making these video's. Its very inspiring!

[@marcobucci]

Thanks! Getting the 'academic' part of painting to work with the abstract/feel part just takes time and practice, like anything else :) All the best.

[@LeontineGaasenbeek]

Hi Marco,I know, but sometimes its just frustrating Feeling like there's any progress. Just received your book, Thank you!

[@a.n.6131]

I love the things you say, especially how you talk about feelings and abstractions, I feel like I’m seeing a real artist with a vibrant soul here, and have learned so much, so inspired - thank you so much for existing ❤️ (And oh! No need to reply, just wanted to let you know is all ☺️ All the best!

[@Bahookiez]

I just discovered you. way to go on explaining everything. the canvas you started out with, with all the colors everywhere all mixed was very interesting and inspiring. to watch you make it into something was a delight

[@cyrilfrnt]

Thanks a lot for this new content. It is incredibly helpful to see you drawing and painting, as youre giving abstract a large part in your process. Very inspiring.

[@danielleblackwell6952]

So happy to have found your videos, I really love your style of teaching!

[@steveyoungwork]

Marco your advice and guidance has been inspirational, you view on art and teaching allays inspires me to do more, I would like to thank you for that! Keep going you going in the right direction.

[@jackgipson9110]

Excellent. Beautiful work and very inspiring.

[@shard765]

Amazing! Since I started watching your videos I've completely changed the way I look at colors. Great work! Very charming

[@quatricise]

Just hearing someone say "Ring that bell" instantly give me shivers and I expect them to make some kinda joke about clicking the youtube bell icon. KZbin culture has left a scar on my soul.

[@ClashixTV]

make more videos!!! :D i'm so ill and thought i'd take this excessive time I have to learn about digital painting, your videos are very enjoyable. love watching you draw.

[@christopherdorazio1705]

[@marcobucci]

Arash! Nice to hear from you. Thanks for watching.

[@yancowles]

How very agreeable and satisfactory, a new Marco tute! Enjoyed very much your sketchbook painting course on SVS and I'm now also doing Nathan Fowkes landscape sketching series. Both of you are very inspiring artists and excellent teachers.

[@marcobucci]

I watched Nathan Fowkes's lanscape sketching videos last month! That guy is the best.

[@yancowles]

Painting as poetry is good. I used to think of music as painting as well, especially improvisation.

[@Julien-pt8nv]

Good to be back. And thanks!

[@jadenhemata8403]

Beautiful piece, big fan!

[@a.n.6131]

[@jovannaplata8952]

Thanks for the video, Marco! It's very helpfull and inspiring :DD

[@marcobucci]

I'm glad, thanks!

[@jrboxtv]

Amazing....thank you for sharing your skills.

[@cr0uchingtiger]

great advice in this video, thanks

[@WarlordMoA]

Can you do a Disney, art style landscape?

[@ivaldofilho4035]

AWESOME video. Awesome painting. Your brushes aren't available anymore. I'd like to play with them.

[@SneakersDK]

I need to say R.I.P to the woman/Girl/Lady you painted over. She deserve better :( You painted over her in 3:45. But its a beautiful painting you ended up with.

[@francis10583]

best art speaker imho

[@kaisatoshiart8437]

Marco I am a big fan and own a few of your videos :). I always love to see you post! ... and it looks like you have updated your photoshop since I last purchased a video lol

[@marcobucci]

haha, I was waiting for somebody to notice that. The ONLY reason I upgraded was because I had a big computer crash and lost the installer for Photoshop CS5 (which I bought back in 2009 or so). I had no choice but to upgrade to CC.

[@milkpore7464]

Oh wow, this was quite helpful! Thank you!

[@marcobucci]

Great! Thanks for watching.

[@milkpore7464]

Most welcome, I really enjoy your videos! Hoping to see more from you in the near future.

[@JaspreetSinghArtist]

this is awesome

[@No-hr9ue]

i do at least 6 portraits every day to practice my drawing skils but i feel that anything has changed tho, i was kinda depress until id heard what u said about failure idk im so afraid of not get good even tho im trying so hard

[@STANNco]

o boi. I forgot about this channel

[@marcobucci]

ha!

[@art-byfayleif3938]

dont feel bad its a hidden gem

[@tailortinker2797]

It is useful tutorial and amazing technique. Thank you so much. coloured sky and night time sky is very hard for me. It would be very useful if can you paint a video about those when you are free :)

[@joaslin]

First of all thank you for sharing Sir =) Second, You painted for Disney on the Frozen's children book where you made some colorful pieces whithout an "eye piercing" vibrancy which I personally appreciate a lot. It would be amazing if I could be part of the franchise one day, so my question is: Do you think I'm "disney material"? Like do you think I have a chance of getting in? (You can look at my thumbnails on my channel, you don't have to watch my videos or anything ^^) If "Yes" should I send a portfolio? Or should I wait for them to contact me? Thank you very much for reading. =)

[@lisamaier9984]

WOW!!!!

[@pumukypumuky7846]

Uau!!! Very nice video!! Congrats! :)

[@parassharmaarts3190]

[@cupcup911]

[@marcobucci]

Ah, you just haven't seen my failures ;)

[@IvaN-cf7qt]

i lost to chance to get the brushes from dropbox XD.

[@erikgeens9336]

Can you please update the link to the brushes? I know it's not going to make me a better artist but I'd like to play around with them. :)

[@philippfrogel9355]

Yes me too, it would be great if he'd do that!

[@DashXero]

Drat. The link to the brushes is not working. I was hoping to play with them... I've been enjoying the videos, by the way.

[@miguelmitchelldasilva]

yay your back :)

[@marcobucci]

with a vengeance.

[@Lupilloillo]

Can you update the link of the brushes? please =) great job

[@marcobucci]

Hello - that link should work!

[@ricardocarnauba]

It does not! Huge fan here.

[@shi3be]

I think it does not working anymore. If you have some time to fix it, that would be awesome. Anyways, thank you for the fantastic video. I learnt a lot.

[@miriaruan684]

Yes, I also hope to draw with this brushes.

[@Cosmicstarboy]

wow! You should start your own school.

[@jokesterthemighty227]

you have 23 days to make a 3rd video this year, now's the chance!

[@marcobucci]

Hahaha. I am a heavy underdog on that betting line.

[@jokesterthemighty227]

Spoiler alert! I wanted to have my hopes crushed day by day brah :P

[@VincentAdultmanbearpig]

What resolution and sizing do you tend to work in, if you don't mind my asking?

[@Snowtrouper]

Thank you for sharing your work and knowledge. It's very useful to people like myself. Is there anywhere I can get your brushes to play with now? The dropbox link is dead. :(

[@karliemontage3869]

wahhh a new video niice!

[@marcobucci]

boom.

[@toktokwhoshere1387]

wow beautiful *_*

[@pariaesmaeilii]

hi I've watched your videos many times and they were very helpful. would you do a favor please? the link for the brushes doesn't work and I'm really confused with my current brushes... would you please pleaaaaase update the link?

[@RyanCohen11]

Thumbs up if you were also surprised to see a new video!!!

[@Blubliberrythenumberblock_1]

thnks man~!

[@jacksonlaframboise6257]

When ever I start off doing emotion stuff Nd try to hone it in, I end up getting like organic colours forming like a weird top down view of a dried out river system or something. Like 100% of the time. No clue why.

[@art-byfayleif3938]

you really like your green monster lol

[@emrahy.849]

cool

[@nickie_katharina_foenshauge]

❤️👍❤️👍❤️👍❤️👍❤️👍 One thumbs-up just doesn’t do it. And the book: bought it and read it. I can’t recommend it enough.

[@marcobucci]

Thanks a lot!

[@irfanzahid4643]

how long did it take you to make this painting. great stuff

[@marcobucci]

4-5 hours approx.

[@mixingpaint7230]

bieautiful

[@POPOTV]

Cant find the brushes link. can you please share again.

[@Julien-pt8nv]

by the way your brushs link doesnt work

[@malicale8719]

do u have a subtitles on your store's digital painting videos?

[@marcobucci]

Sadly no :(

[@augustinho0desing]

MORE MORE MORE *-*

[@marcobucci]

The youtube conglomerate shall never be satiated! (i.e. Thanks for watching :)

[@carlosriveragutierre]

Hi. How are you changing brushes without panels?

[@marcobucci]

Just off-screen is my Tool Presets window, which contains all my brushes.

[@FeedMeYourSoul]

where the bruushes at maaaaaaaaan

[@marcobucci]

haha - that link is down now, sadly. I now include it (along with more brushes) with any of my store's digital painting videos, as well as low-level and higher Patreon tiers.

[@JohnsonOyeniran]

Do you use reference when you paint?

[@marcobucci]

Only if I don't know what something looks like. In this case I didn't need any. I used to use reference all the time, but as you gain experience (highly recommend lots of painting directly from life, as I show/discuss in my other videos), you gain a visual library in your head that allows you to work more freely.

[@marcobucci]

Revising my reply: I did use a piece of reference on this one, specifically for the way snow piles up on Birch trees.

[@toktokwhoshere1387]

nice ;)

[@juanpablotrimarco6861]

Which medium is viable to paint from life?

[@marcobucci]

Juan Trm any medium! I prefer watercolour because I find it the most difficult, but also the most rewarding. Very portable, too. Adding a bit of white gouache to your watercolour is a good way to get some opacity when you need it, and everything cleans up with water. That's for land/streetscapes. If I'm painting from the live model in a controlled environment, I'll probably opt for oil or acrylic, which can be worked a bit more.

[@juanpablotrimarco6861]

Thanks for answering! Any brand or type of watercolour in particular? I don't really know any heh. Same goes for the paper :(

[@marcobucci]

Any brand of watercolour will do, I just recommend you stick to professional grade whenever possible (as opposed to student grade). As for paper, I recommend a minimum of 140lb (anything less will buckle too easily with washes), and I prefer cold press (rough) paper over hot press. You should be able to find sketchbooks of that in any art store. Arches is probably the most common brand of paper. OR, far more easily - grab yourself a Moleskine watercolor book. That's a great book for outdoor sketches.

[@elpelazo]

it's all in one layer?

[@marcobucci]

For the most part. yes. There are 2 or 3 times where I use a layer to experiment with an effect, but I always mention it in the narration.

[@elpelazo]

marcobucci awesome!

[@caveman3744]

the brushes don't exist

[@GontijoGamer]

I want to know if you think that the first step to learn paint is actually learn how to draw...

[@marcobucci]

The first thing is: painting IS drawing. Your painting will always rise (or sink) to the level of your drawing. So learning the fundamentals of drawing is probably the most efficient way to go about it, yes. Is it impossible to learn to draw by only painting? Yes ... but I don't recommend that.

[@joaslin]

Hello mr Marco Bucci, I left a comment/question a few minutes ago and I think KZbin considered it like a Spam or something ^^ so If you can please take a read at it That would be awesome, Thank you very much! =)

[@marcobucci]

Hi! I see the notification for your other comment, but for some reason I can't read it. Can you just reply here and type it again? Thanks.

[@joaslin]

Here's a copy of it=) " First of all thank you for sharing Sir =) Second, You painted for Disney on the Frozen's children book where you made some colorful pieces whithout an "eye piercing" vibrancy which I personally appreciate a lot.
