I love this guy! He makes sense to me and I 'see' what Goethe is saying. I must sign up to see the rest xx

[@gabrielbezerra5013]

what a fun and relaxed class! I loved it ❤️🌺

[@ccoppola82]

This dude is amazing. Love it

[@jensschettler1732]

Of cause , grass is red.... after a lot of absynth everything is red.... or diox violet

[@hd-xc2lz]

Well, one would start with an earth red underpainting, working out all values before going to full palette, and that underpainting would come through strongly in shadows. Was THE approach to landscape up until impressionists. But a cad red (seen here) would never be used for underpainting. This guy is oddly unprepared.

[@thestaz8564]

no more abinsthe for you

[@zohremeshkini2309]

He s so cool and looks like 18century men, but it was so better if it was longer and he explains more with example

[@2209009pm]

Ah ha.

[@max-romano-santo]

I understand nothing....

[@ronaldcadiuex4009]

Why is he wearing gloves

[@chrisf.1301]

Possibly to keep any toxic pigments off his skin

[@jehovahuponyou]

@@chrisf.1301 NOPE, WAY TOO LATE FOR THAT - LMAO!!!!!!!

[@jensschettler1732]

I think he is kind of crazy but sweet somehow.... using diox violet as a "german classical palette... ". What he smoked?

[@ursulageorgeson7086]

He's allergic to turps

[@richardalonzo2879]

WTF ??? You see what you see ?? See this is what chemicals do to the brain , he is so extremely vague..... and obtuse . He can't form a cohesive thought in his head, I feel sorry for the guy listening to this ?? Oh Boy ......

[@hd-xc2lz]

A little preparation, one dry run-through, would have gone a long way.

[@ChipHolton]

It’s so dark. Instruction is lethargic and boring . Adopting the past is a wonderful thing but this is an act. Just be a copycat.
