How To Draw Like a Painter | (Start-Finish) Real Time Tutorial

[@shirleygreene4076]

“How to draw like a painter” that is so beautiful, and thanks for explaining it so well, I’m so lucky to have found you !!

[@ralphvalenzi6013]

The title of this painting by John William Waterhouse is the first line of a poem by Robert Herrick, a major 17th-century English poet, which expresses the “seize the day” theme. The poem advises young women to get married while they are at their youthful prime, lest they “forever tarry,” growing old while waiting in vain for a lost opportunity. One can see this theme expressed in the painting by the hint of troubled self-consciousness on the woman’s face. She is beautiful, yet appears to be in her mid-twenties, and so is approaching the upper limit of marriageable age, according to Victorian and Edwardian standards (the painting was completed in 1908). In the full painting the woman is carrying a bowl of fully blown roses. I am glad you are practicing and promoting artistic realism. Your emphasis on relating shapes was eye-opening to me and deserves to be widely practiced. Your process was fascinating to watch and shows that a traditional approach to drawing can produce incredible results. The final drawing is a beautiful rendition, and I am glad you described this technique with such clarity, and contrasted its rationale to that of hyperrealism, which is the overdone orthodoxy of the day.

Yupari, Master Yupari. Loved this drawing session! Drawing is my weakness so I am so grateful and am learning from your super clear instructions. Excellent as always!

[@lindagroene4346]

I like your new format so far! Less repetition, more instructive and polished.

[@sander1133]

As much as I like watching you do oil paintings these are my absolute favorite videos of yours. Maybe because I am using graphite myself now that I decided to learn how to draw on actual paper instead of digitally.

[@greg6873]

I you are one of the best kept secrets..ever...I'm hugely in awe of your work, philosophies and delivery...thank you😎

[@markahearn1]

I love drawing along with you as you talk. At first my drawing was unintentionally looking like Jane Fonda but I ended up with more of a young Elizabeth Taylor. I think that maybe I starting placing the values in to early. Oh well, I''ll keep practicing. Thank you for the postings.

[@markahearn1]

I just drew along with this video again 4 weeks later and it is much better this time. I think that all of my practice is really starting to pay off!

[@crisalidathomassie1811]

Yupari, thanks so much for such detailed video. I’m a little behind and trying to catch up. I feel very inspired and more confident since this is how I normally start a painting. Drawing is my major concern if I want a good painting. I also considered the values are the next important stage. I’m still working with getting my values as close as I can. Certainly watching you is more encouraging and the guidance you provide are just what we all need. I strongly believe you are very humble and unselfish when teaching what you have learnt over the years and passing the information to your followers is admirable. Thanks again and looking forward to see more. Blessings and best wishes.

Crisalida Thomassie thank you for watching! I recently learned to use less medium this week!! Velazquez and the other master studies I have been doing are really helping me learn 🙂I’m very happy to be able to share what I’ve learned with you! Best wishes on your artwork!!

[@crisalidathomassie1811]

Thanks Yupari!

[@debykalush9199]

You are awesome!

[@YupariArtist]

Thank you!

[@lilyunderthesun]

[@klecal]

very beautiful drawing - good work

[@HimanArtists]

Nice

[@eileencoult4368]

As Cheryl Scott (below) mentions I think the model has what iscommonly known as an 'English Rose' complexion. Often found in redheads with a very pale complexion. wonderful video Yupari. Thankyiu

[@WendyMoule]

ahh yeah my mum was a red head

[@lindagroene4346]

I am working on a portrait of my niece, who is in her 20's. Its from a photo reference though. I used classical technique, checking out some new colors like light red (as per cesar santos) as basis for skin tone. on layer #2 now, its coming along.

[@nm3677]

This tutorial helped me so much! Your understanding of modern art and the loss of that classical sense really explained what I can’t express. Thank you so much!

[@SoyulGGG]

I Love this video and drawing! Awesome!

[@janicejones9893]

This video was so helpful! Answered so many questions. I will be practicing this technique regularly from now on.

[@louisematthee3164]

Thanks..love your work so happy to be able to catch you live..hallo from south africa

[@katytrigger3325]

Love your sketching videos! I've been rediscovering art and focusing on techniques and the basics - I'm looking forward to following your oil painting videos once I'm more confident :) thank you

[@sanjaypatil4746]

Fine demo

[@solrart]

Good idea for a tutorial. Thanks!

[@durvius2657]

Great video! I have to say, even though you don't get the views you deserve, I find it inspiring that you still keep at it with continually putting out great quality videos no matter what. I'm working on some preparation for my first portrait in oil paint, which will be my second oil painting ever. (nervous about it so trying to do a test run of the person.) Learning paint by just starting with greyscale paintings by mixing white, brown, and blue.

[@YupariArtist]

Durvius thank you for your kind words! Portrait can be pretty intimidating. I would suggest several short studies. This drawing is a study for a painting I’m going to film pretty soon. I also do several “practice paintings” off camera to prepare for a KZbin video. Best wishes on your artwork!

[@chriswhitehouse8982]

Yupari, since you asked...I started painting in acrylic a little more than a year ago. But, realized my drawing skills needed improvement so I took a break from painting to just focus on drawing. Lately, I've been mostly focused on trying to draw portraits in graphite or charcoal. I'm very interested in trying to paint portraits in acrylic. By the way, I'm your neighbor living in the next county over from you in Carroll County, MD.

[@marlonellamil9620]

very nice

[@ingridcarlson2863]

Love watching you work. I learn so much from your videos. Sincerely Ingrid

[@paul_domici]

Great Video! Thanks for posting!!!

[@louisematthee3164]

[@OoohWaaayy]

[@gabrielsouzacaetano9457]

I'm interested about learning dimension and perspective!!!

[@paulsheldon229]

yupari iam trying oil colors my daughter got me last christmas i asked my brother also a artist oil colors mix with water yes i also heared u talk about it colors vibrant but donot dry fast

[@siddharthyadav9004]

This approach should be appreciated!!

[@michaelwagner460]

I just downloaded the image and will start today.

[@louisematthee3164]

sorry to bug but you said to ask questions in latest videos...i have a problem..in charcoal i can do planes and good tonal work..even graphite..but not at all with my oils..black and white tones in oil perfect, but colour i dont understand at all..thank you xxx

[@YupariArtist]

Louise Matthee Hi! The transition from charcoal to oil paint is best I think 👍 If achieving value gradations using color is a problem I would first make sure you are using artist quality oils. Second, mix colors of varying tones (such as my color-value web) on your palette. When painting colors try to use less medium as well (this can change the tone sometimes). I hope this helps! Happy Painting!

[@chriswhitehouse8982]

What's your thoughts about using various measuring devises (proportional divider, sight size, etc.) when drawing portraits?

[@dicle5285]

Can you do selfportrait ?

[@mikefitzgerald18]

My inner artist is modern art and/or an angry toddler

[@urmum1691]

I'm painting a Selfportrait right now

[@jimthompson2836]

When you talk about transferring to canvas, do you mean tracing your drawing onto canvas?

[@Me0iyo]

nice new sub ^^

I agree the red cheeks are likely rosacea. It can be called butterfly mask, it’s an outward sign of endocrine system problems. Probably not the result of pregnancy in this model but often it worsens with the hormonal changes of pregnancy.

[@ji0iv]

[@lindagroene4346]

I think the red cheeks are rosacea. Its a skin condition us fairskinned people get...

[@WendyMoule]

Being fair skinned myself, I get a flush of red on my cheeks from exertion. On my easel today is a large, for me, painting of peonies. Photo references from my own garden. I love my peonies but they do not last long enough at three weeks. The drawing stage is not my favourite stage. I do as little as I possibly can, that seems to work out ok for me.

[@christyhoehn8244]

I’m thinking the rosy cheeks are more of a blush/ flush that shows up more on pale-skinned people. It doesn’t seem to be make-up as that would be in a different area of the face.
