[@m.carl.lunden]

You are one of the best painting instructors on KZbin. Thank you!

[@LuisBorreroVisualArtist]

Hello Carl: I appreciate your feedback. Thank you for visiting my channel. 🙏🏻

[@cuentamedenuevo7399]

Thank you as always for the so interesting topic, Maestro Borrero, for the so clear explanation and for the so positive energy. 🙏🏻. Looking forward to October’s surprise topic.

[@LuisBorreroVisualArtist]

Thank you for commenting!!! 🙏🏻

[@beedeeuniko]

Funny thing is, you can analyze materials and techniques all you want, but in the end it takes an artist to do a masterpiece, never a technician 😂 very insightful videos btw 😊

[@lisengel2498]

I love Titians direct way of painting and experimenting, very inspiring and even if I dont paint in classical style I truly get inspiration from watching this well demonstrated information in practice 🙏🧡

[@steveburley5041]

so very interesting ( and loved your underwater trick ) thx

[@pancake_bones2289]

Instant subscribe, I asked all my art professors in college for the technical aspect of how old Masters did flesh tones, and was always answered with how the impressionist and Fauvist did flesh tones, it was frustrating ,I'm not trying to flatten the picture plain!!!! so to see a video with this as it's content, I was very happy to see

[@gasperettiarts]

I’m binging the content of this awesome channel. I’m learning soooooo much 🙏

[@barbarajohnson1442]

Beautiful demonstration. "Neutralizing" is such a crucial concept in working with color. Great tip about lead white protecting Madder Lake. 👏 I just saw the Titian show in Boston. They are so much more when seen life size!!!! Like movie size dreams, theatrical productions. If only one could be alone with them!!!!( For longer time )

[@jaybennett5639]

So privileged to watch you at work & loving the Udemy Rembrandt course. I've completely changed how I paint, thankyou so much Louis.

[@LuisBorreroVisualArtist]

Hi Jay: It’s wonderful to read your comment. I am so glad the course is helping and inspiring you. Best wishes. Thanks again for purchasing the course and visiting the channel. 🙏🏻🙏🏻

Most informative teacher around, on the subject of classical arts . thank you so much. Godbless.

[@LuisBorreroVisualArtist]

I appreciate your feedback Anthony! Best regards!!🙏🏻

Still remember seeing two similar paintings of Titian and Rubens in Prado Museum (i think it was St Sebastian). Titian's version looked more serious and spiritual while Rubens's looked like it was painted with candies in comparison hah. Titian was one of the greatest painters of all time along with Rembrandt IMHO. These earthy, harmonious and limited color palette make their work look so natural and real, like you want to touch them and smell them. You actually need 4 colors to make a great painting- white, yellow brown, vermillion and black. Some call it Apelles palette.

Gracias por compartir su sabiduria lo mirare y comprendere me encanta las posibilidades de mezclas etc, a pesar que la ultima parte no se traduse al español!! muchas gracias!!!

[@markshane191]

Luis, once again, TY! Would you consider examining “Mona Lisa” flesh tones & glaze applications of these?

[@alkatebalsiasy3930]

Thanks to be as much as much generous as master , it is rare those days , thank you so much

[@jimqartworks]

another awesome streaming, thank you

[@jordangrace8257]

I am so thankful for you and your incredible knowledge. I dont care about modern techniques of painting, I want to learn to paint like the old masters! I have learnt 90% of the things I know from you. I know I can always trust what you say because I know how much time and research you put into your videos. So thank you so much, i was so glad when i found you. P.S. you are an incredibly talented artist.

[@ramonitavega354]

Great demo. I’ve learnt so much , thank you

[@horowitzjohn23]

i learned a lot from this video but it seems to focus mostly on the flesh highlights. The hard part of painting flesh is the mid-tones and the dark highlights (for example the facial outlines of the Vendramin Family). i'd like to see these colors addressed too. Thanks.

[@kennethwisseman]

I was just wondering what you thought of Frank Covino's method of overpainting with a controlled pallete of flesh color toned down used greys?

[@VenusianRed]

There’s a book I have about Henry Raeburn in which it discusses Raeburn‘s use of black. It states that, based upon analysis he mostly used charcoal-black. Amongst other uses the “dense shadows were made by the addition of red.” The question is which red or reds . Fascinating topic 😀

[@marcofontolan6592]

Fabulous!

[@magnusfors6967]

Great information - love it! Unfortunately I live in the European union and lead white is prohibited here...

[@b455player]

Thanks for another excellent video. I have a question: When you or books or technical documents refer to 'Umber' (for example i was reading one called 'Paint handling in Leonardo's Mona Lisa - OpenEdition Journals') ... does this mean Burnt Umber or Raw Umber? i've found its not always made clear and Umbers are of course very different.

[@alkatebalsiasy3930]

Thank you for the Arabic translation on your KZbin Channel, God bless you.

[@lennartschwarze2698]

Thanks Luis. Again, wonderful informations & cant wait for october to come!

[@paulklee5790]

As I was told at art school back in the day... ‘Whilst Titian was mixing Rose Madder His model reclined by a ladder, The position to Titian suggested coition, And so he leapt to the ladder and had her...’ Titian, a painter who had his aims well ordered...

[@pedroluishd7520]

Maestro donde puedo encontrar el libro a un precio más módico .Pues en Amazon el libro está rozando los 1000 dólares lo cual es ufff .Y me pregunto si hay copias u otra forma de adquirirlo

[@jb_robert]

Thank you for the video. Do you know how William Bouguereau painted flesh tones? I'm very interested in his technique but didn't find any clear explainations on it. I wonder if he painted a green "Camaïeu" (like a "grisaille" but in green) then applied a glaze mixture of different colours? If you could make a video on his technique that would be great. :)

[@brentbirney6060]

Luis, in your descriptions, can you write the correct spelling of any artist/author you are talking about. My audio is not good, and I have a hard time exploring their sources? Thank you.

[@firstwavepuresoul]

According to the director of the Gallery only the faces of the adults at the top in Vendramin are painted by Titian. The boys (awkward 3 on left) were attributed to 'studio' also known as assistants. There is a 'fake or fortune' episode specifically talking with the director about different levels of completed large artworks including this one. If the whole was done by the great man then it was called 'autograph'. If most of it was done by studio assistants and topped off by the artist it was called 'studio' but would be signed by the artist. Hope that helps.

[@allenvoss7977]

What are your thoughts on using alizarin Crimson as your cool red along with cadmium red ?

[@blancodeplomo]

Por eso mismo muchos la llamamos Apelles Palette, creo que es mas adecuado.

[@jimqartworks]

what is the difference from Italian Raw umber and French Raw umber or regular raw umber? thanks

[@jimqartworks]

after watching this, I will slowly shift to pigment and buy in Kremer, may just get important one's for flesh tones like Madder, is it toxic? thanks

[@LuisBorreroVisualArtist]

Hello Sweaty palms: Madder is an amazing color and it’s not toxic. 🙏🏻

[@jimqartworks]

@@LuisBorreroVisualArtist thanks, my madder is from tube, since it's a integral part of most of my flesh tones I will buy in kremer, I will start with that. Thanks

[@jxicap8669]

@@LuisBorreroVisualArtist is lead white also protective with other lakes,or only madder,as most of them are fugitive as well?

Hi Louis, I'm also an artist of many decade's and thoroughly enjoy your videos. Just want to mention and don't know if you have heard of it, but there's a wonderful paint called "Flake white replacement." I won't mention the brand so as to keep everyone protected. It is lead free so it's very safe to use instead of lead white and has most all the qualities of it. You can look it up and the leading art stores carry it. I've been using it for years and love how it handles. You may want to add some mediums like a good stand oil etc. Titian and many of the old masters would love the supplies we have today. Thanks again for your in depth studies here. Take care Artist forever 🙏😍 🎨🖌️🖼️

Please i would like subtitles in Greek language if this is possible

[@ocean8434]

Now a days we use Ivory Black . What would that be equivalent too ? Bone or vine or carbon?

[@LuisBorreroVisualArtist]

Hello Ocean: Today Ivory black is the same thing as Bone black, PBk9.
