Being a real artist begins with "good trade". That's what most artists have forgotten the last 120 years! You're one of the artists that revitalised that meaning. I much love your art and your honest work! It bolsters me up!

"Every portrait that is painted with feeling is a portrait of the artist, not of the sitter. The sitter is merely the accident, the occasion. It is not he who is revealed by the painter; it is rather the painter who, on the coloured canvas, reveals himself." - Oscar Wilde

Saludos Cesar tu trabajo me abrio los ojos y me hace aprender mas cada dia. Nunca dejes de compartirnos a los que no podemos pagar cursos caros. Yo pague algunos tutoriales con gentes que solo vendian videos sin calidad y ahi me gaste mis ahorros desgraciadamente. Buenos pintores que no sabian ensenar. He aprendido mil veces mas sin gastar en tus videos que lo que aprendi pagando.

Cesar eres un gran artista, y yo te admiro, y brindo mis respetos, eres una inspiracion, tu arte es un gran regalo dado por Dios, yo pinto y dibujo, y mi orgullo no me permite usar cuadriculas y una de las cosas que me gusta es la confianza con la que haces el bosquejo sin necesidad de medir, ni hacer ningun tipo de cuadricula. Dios te siga dando mas conocimiento y gracias por compartir, una lastima que no haces videos en español para los que no tenemos tanta fluidez en ingles.

How have I not found this guy sooner. A true fired spirit in Art. I had ended getting this exact tool as a subscription base website called "Sketch-box. It came with their "pastel month" pro,mo. Anyhow, I have used to use as effects in my acrylics paint, but this is a great an versatile tool! I. got another fan bro, keep that flame going!

Cesar I see you have shirts available as merchandise. I would buy a shirt with simply just your photo on it next to one of your paintings and in big letters CESAR SANTOS. True fans will understand. Would proudly wear it bro. Anyone ask who's that on your shirt? I would grab their shirt and pull them in realclose, "Who's that? Who's ThAt?!?

Enable the Free Hand Portrait Line method for correct measurements

[@RobertF-]

To draw freehand, you gotta keep your hand free, man. Keep it real loosey goosey, draw real loosely at first. Sketch it in really quickly and crazy, just get those damn proportions exactly accurate. Don't be lazy. Do whatever it takes, erase stuff over and over until it's over. But don't worry about the details yet. Once you get those proportions precisely, you'll find the rest easy I bet. Then just get your eraser and your paper stump blender, and go slowly area by area. Smooth some edges out, sharpen other ones, draw in tiny details, make small little corrections until it's done, and just bring it on home, homie.

Hello Cesar. I used to draw when I was younger. I wasn't great but ok. I always wanted to progress to portrait painting but I lack the drawing skills. How can I better approach the drawing stage the way you do?

That is exactly why am doing these videos.

[@LinzWelch]

Stupid question, how to you paint over the pan pastel later? Do you seal it or it doesn’t affect the paint?

Are you saying you're going to paint in oils over a pastel drawing?

is there any platform where I can learn free?

Nature is "free", it might have contaminated water though. Food in nature can be free but you might risk your life getting it. If you're looking for free, then you're not free to choose what you intake.

[@jazw4649]

Hi Cesar, you mention sizing your canvas with glue. Do you use traditional rabbit skin glue or is it something more modern? I've been experimenting with crushed egg shells (calcium carbonate) on wood surface for egg tempera. Your work is absolutely beautiful! I am a huge fan.

[@antoniocc6853]

I think in this painting the question of covering all genres of art is difficult for any artist, and yet they all contain their own narrative. I think the difficult thing for an artist is to be selective.

[@BetoAzamar]

Today I was in an art exhibition and I was very disappointed to see the portraits exhibit in a very exclusive place were garbage. The portraits had no right proportions, flat images like cartoonist, all was so wrong and trying to look realistic but was almost annoying to see. Huge canvases with flat wrong proportions. I am still learning portraits but I notice the basic mistakes. My question is ... How do these people painting those wrongly made portraits, how do they make it into exclusive galleries? Contacts?
