Greg ---- Brother, watching you paint never gets old. It's amazing. The way that your individual characters are created and the life that you give through detail is so fascinating to watch. I used to watch my mom design stained glass windows, hanging art, and replacing plain glass windows in cabinets, first drawing out the patterns then getting the different textures and colors of glass and she'd have the design drawn full size or blown up using a copy machine and cut the patterns for each piece of glass and the lay it all out then cut the lead caming, piece it together and pack the spaces with clay so no gaps from different thickness of glass, dust the whole thing with some kind of powder and let it dry for a day or so then do the soldering of each joint. Then support bars and then it or they would be delivered and installed. At the same time my dad would be painting using watercolors and a repetigragh pen painting mostly landscapes and marinas, farm houses, creeks and bridges. I could sit and watch him paint and just be mesmerized. He has painting in the Portland Oregon County Buildings on permanent display by winning a contest of local artists entering their work and around 2000 artists entered various types of art of every medium. His entry was among four or six possible winners. He has one for sure but possibly two paintings hanging. That's why I can watch your videos. I'm amazed at the talent people have to create art. I probably have some artistic talent locked away with parents like mine. But, I think of my electrical work as being an art. I work in film and television so it is art, I guess.

Love how he casually talks on the phone while painting a masterpiece.

That transparent red on the bird is awesome! Also talking on the phone and painting reminds me of all my phone doodles. Great technics! I enjoy how you challenge yourself! Looks wonderful!

Not only are you an amazing artist, but you have great taste in music. The soundtrack to this video is stellar.

I wonder what a collab between you and Simon Stålenhag would look like… maybe you could create some of the old billboard advertising in the landscape with his ruins of giant bots and ships laying around. That would be awesome!

Fantastic! Is this a new work? Love how the tree ended up in the teacup, and the porcelain look of the critter (cat?)

Whats the purpose of using gesso? Do u think im compromising the lifespan of my art by not using gesso? Ive never had any type of schooling just hoping to puck ur brain.. Big fan, love ur videos I’ve learned so much since studying ur stuff. I find instant inspiration to want to sit down and create something. Kinda like when the blackbook is getting passed around, it gets me giddy. I thank you for any insight you might share, thank you in advance.

What type of projector do you use ?

@GregSimkinsArt 29 күн бұрын

It's an old Epson projector. I think it's a 5500. It's not the best but gets the job done.
