The whole world worried, while an artist was playing with colours...

There's a lot of good teachers on KZbin but you are my favourite Yong Chen!

[@YongChen]

Oscar Escobar, Thank you!

[@helloshiny8475]

Me too. Yong does the coolest thing in teaching which is to make art look achieve able and fun, the beginning always looks basic and it slowly gets harder. But in think many people could follow,along to his painting.

[@johannalaan4901]

Me too. I can’t get enough of watching. Just am a bit afraid of starting a portrait myself!

[@Жизньхудожника]

Oscar Escobar 🙂🙃🙂🙃

[@jn8922]

I love this guy. I started painting and there was some anxiety because I thought I couldn't draw. I was watching all these videos on proportions which were helpful but very complicated. But this guy just made everything so easy and stress free. Wonderful video ❤

When you play while doing art..it is a gift..no need to study.. just practice blending colors and draw naturally because it just flows like running water without the effort..the photographic memory is important in the painter..on how to transfer the idea or face to the canvas naturally

[@beetljam792]

the way that man just cleaned his brush with a brown paper bag changed me

[@ArmaDanOnly]

Its crazy how easily he explains proportions. In my opinion thats the hardest part.

[@EnanoForro]

Amazing. Shapes first. Guess its the mandatory rule for every art piece.

[@Жизньхудожника]

Enano Forro ☝🏼😌

[@donyjunior]

His son started the paint and he still could save it... amazing.

[@ronikamerl]

This is the best tutorial I've ever seen for free

[@jinjinb528]

I think the less detail paintings are more interesting than a painting that looks real. I like your techniques!

[@socalsal627]

I love your style of painting and teaching! Us beginners get overly nervous about every step, but your way of doing things is so simple and calming. Even if I mess up I feel like I am getting the hang of it slowly but surely and I don't feel overwhelmed! Thanks so much! 😃

[@donnaramdin1454]

That s good....For us who have problems with drawing and details this is so simplified...i think anyone can follow.. great teaching once again

Eyes: Ok I know to draw this Hands: No You don’t

[@lujainalshami2073]

Both my hands and eyes knew it..

[@janecheshire5504]

Pencil, where are you, come back??

[@joelevangelio4074]

no its your negativity to yourself keeping you not to improve in painting. I remember Yongchen said in one of his tutorial, " Give yourself a credit".. you can do it.

Yong Chen, you're the greatest. Thank you always

[@VijayKumar-gd4bm]

Oh God! What talent...how much skill... You have a large heart bro. Having the reference picture, your palette and the subject in the same screen.

[@maggietattersfield2859]

Fantastic painting and Bach music🙏🏼😊🤗😃🎶...

[@noahatlas5240]

Take color from the SIDE. WOW. I’ve never heard that before but that’s the best advice!!

[@FrancoisMoya]

Thank you very much for your video. It is clear, concise and very helpful. Your level of sharing and knowledge are great. Thank you

[@EsenHsdmr]

Thank God. At last someone showed not only the painting process but also how he mixed the colours on the pallette!

[@deepanwitapaulghosh1750]

You are the best teacher !!! ❤

[@ramchandradhond9794]

Very simple narration, very inspiring .many many thanks. May God Bless you sir

[@filliere4576]

Your relaxed performance skills are so in tune with your observational skills; always a treat.

[@Жизньхудожника]

FILLIÈRE 😉

[@stevekellam6277]

I love this. wonderfully presented. So many videos tend to be presented as being about the artist. We don't even see him, making it about creating the art. Brilliant.

[@Firetrainer60]

This may be one of the most helpful videos for acrylic portraits i have seen. Thank you so much!

[@nollyfkennedy]

This was sooo helpful! I just need to be more confident to paint. It's all about the colors and not painting the details as you know they are but as they look. I understand that concept that my art teacher explained to me, but when I'm drawing or painting I struggle to apply it, thinking that if I draw every detail it will be better and easier to understand, but in the end it's not.

[@malagienia1]

for me You are the best teacher I learn a lots from You Thank You

[@freddysalgado9429]

I only draw... im a little scared of painting...but i'll try.. with this video i wish it!

[@jeonjungwick8777]

Me too 😣 Painting is too messy, and it's hard to control how the colors would go when mixing ahhh... That's why I stick with color pencils 😅

[@jn8922]

Oh please try. I have the opposite problem. I can't draw realistically. But there's no issues with painting. It's so easy to fix something. You just play with shade and tone. You'd really be surprised how easy painting is. The first painting I did was a portrait of my grandmother. It wasn't perfect but it was a really good likeness and I was shocked that I could paint. If you can already draw, you'd be a great painter!

[@PetroicaRodinogaster264]

Freddy Salgado I feel the same

[@khadijafarrukh3236]

First draw then fill colours in it with small round brushes With those brushes it'll be easy for you to control

[@Жизньхудожника]

Freddy Salgado 😌😌

[@drumikkel]

This! Thank you so much for explaining it this way, from figure blocking to even color blocking!

[@larrypetty6175]

I love the way you did it I'm going to keep on watching you you're very good at what you thank you

[@agneshosni4787]

You’re amazing. It all comes together like magic

[@skellez83]

It’s great work but I wanted to see the final touches that turned it into a true portrait. Thanks for the videos:)

[@taramisrbrt7789]

Me too, it changed a lot from him still painting to the finished pic. That's the bit I really wanted to see, how he turns the blobs of colour to smooth skin!

[@leticiapontes3480]

@@taramisrbrt7789 @skellez83 Me too, but i guess he uses a dry brush to blend, that's what i do when i'm painting. I use ''medium crilico'' (don't know the name in english, sorry), not water, so takes a little bit longer to the paint dry. But water works just fine as well...

[@dannychen1064]

it's amazing how this develops from draft to finish!!

[@valibarra827]

This is amazing and it was so fun to watch!!!

[@joannabatherson6783]

It was amazing how you brought this portrait to life through your use of colors! Thank you for this video. 🎨😊

[@vasanths5101]

How it transformed from 36:12 to 36:15 ???

[@gtrrohit5078]

Ik I'm late and I am only 15 but to blend it like that you would most likely need the use of more water but not so much that it makes transparent effects that is not what you want - and the brushstrokes would be less rough more controlled with more purpose. Also, people usually buy this special equipment that allows blending to become much easier, idk if that applies to acrylics.

[@george-vk8ke]

@@gtrrohit5078 it does! you can buy acrylic retarder which slows down drying time so you can go back in and blend more easily at the end

[@nataliavalentina2341]

Excellent, thank you for explaining so well. Amazing!

[@ruthbaker6672]

Crazy good of course. So fascinating to see the face emerge!

[@joelevangelio4074]

I love drawing, but painting is another level,, I think Yong Chen is one of the best teacher in KZbin.

[@lananhtran3286]

thank you a lot for easy-to-follow instructions

[@afafzabaneh3916]

It's simply joyful to watch you teaching art step by step.. we only need oil painting step by step too... please do that...do not over look any step..again....thank you in advance and all the best.....

[@luxuryhomes69]

Real art!

[@batoolhj9992]

How... did... this... happen!! Truly an artist

[@namedone2210]

Absolutely brilliant!

[@vishalchhikara3485]

Just what I was looking for.. such a lucid demonstration. Subscribed!!!!

[@skeletoninyourbody9896]

The beginning actually hurts to watch because i wouldnt be able to do anything after that 😂 Thank you for the video, I'll make sure to practice

[@reneeacomular8839]

I love playing colors too..like a running water naturally flowing..as a gift from the creator and greatest artist of the earth.. which is Jesus 🥰💝

[@GoblinsAreAGirlsBestFriend]

Thank you SO MUCH, this is so insanely helpful. I am new to painting and was doing unusually well with watercolour paint, so figured I would try acrylics because the dry time is less frustrating... but have been getting so frustrated with myself while using acrylics because I finish a layer and feel like it looks dumb and give up. You've literally just shown me real time that anything can be fixed into something beautiful, no matter how rough it is. Thank you. I'm gonna keep working on the portrait I thought I ruined after 2 layers.

[@maymay5812]

This is great. I hope I can be a great artist one day. You did so well. He looks like he wants to cry.well done

[@raerae6422]

Love your tutorial. Learnt heaps. Thanks for sharing. Fascinating watching watching you colour mix with three primaries. Makes it feel achievable for me as a beginner not to have to use 6 primaries(warm and cools).

[@dhiansan3022]

Very helpful video. Thank u for sharing ur ideas.

[@PetroicaRodinogaster264]

I thought it looked brilliant even without the details. It looks just like the photo and all with just blotches of colour. . I want to try but if I fail I will be too scared to try again.

[@jacksonkerr2095]

If I can give any advice, it's that stepping out and trying it is the best thing you can do. As with any skill, as you practice it more it will become easier. I've painted for a few months, and as I do it more, it has become easier for me.

[@39Bosski]

This was a great tutorial. Just recently discovered this channel and now am subscribed. So much to learn here, and not too difficult to follow.

[@JkMeadows]

Came together well. Quick and fun. Thank you.

[@ArtWhispererOG]

im scared of how good this looks in the end

[@nagwagi2000]

I love your process. As I was watching you apply the appropriate colors in the first half of the video with the broad brush, I was wondering how you were going to paint in the fine details. You make portrait painting look so easy!!!🔥

[@rei-tu9ft]

for the past months i have been trying to draw every shape perfectly like real humans eyes nose ... etc but I completely forgot about painting with the right colors . I felt stress and I hated drawing until now i feel hope after this vid its so helpful TYSM FOR MAKING THIS even tho its kinda hard to do but i will keep watching more if your vids💗💗

[@YongChen]

Badria, you should never think that painting is hard, it will distract you from seeing the shapes. Come to join us to learn together if you wish on EnjoyingArt.com.

Sir thank you for sharing... I really don't know how to paint portraits but you inspire me alot to start practicing...

[@crimsondragon18]

Great video, i learned alot.

[@burpo]

This was a perfect video. I loved the layout; showing the painting, the reference and the palette, all at once. There was just enough instruction, then, at just the right time, it went to time lapse. I found it rather suspenseful (What's he gonna do next? Is he gonna lighten that side of the face?).

Well done! Remarkable likeness, thanks for sharing your techniques.

Very nice variety of colours ... and that all with mixing only three colours ! I'm so convinced now . No problematic ... euh ... problems anymore . (Zorn pallette inspiration?)
