How to PAINT A SELF PORTRAIT like Rembrandt | The Rembrandt Course

[@christian.bonin.]

Very good thank you! This should be called '' How to reproduce a self-portrait by Rembrandt''...

[@josebetancourt8115]

Thank you for have time to do that type of videos to beginners, Greetings from Venezuela

[@RijksCreative]

Thank you for taking the time to watch our video and this nice comment! Greetings from Amsterdam!

[@johanneshaushofer9844]

Thank you for this very detailed and informative instruction in such a short time span!

We all really know why we truly love or even adore Rembrandt. Yes, it could be for his chiaroscuro... or it could be for his loose brushstrokes and sometimes spontaneous improvisations (that although I am mesmerized by nonetheless). But I think, be it consciously or unconsciously that is not the real reason. We all can boldly vouch for (may it be only unconsciously) that he produced with his hand what lens could only make with light on sensitive film or sensors. He was in away a camera , and I am dead sure that Rembrandt at every stage of his age when he produced a self-portrait, the likeness was dead on! We can be sure to see the real Rembrandt as he really looked from the Golden Age!

[@mahiraydin3279]

Just amazing! Thank you very much, Lisanne and Rijksmuseum.

[@GinaHist]

very well explained. My paint was always too dark, now I know how to do it.

[@MaryThompson63]

I assumed she would paint herself in the Rembrandt style. Still, a nice tutorial.

[@priyenswiss2002]

same.

[@red2744]

professional painter here ill give some tips take or leave. never use white with your blacks leave shadows dark it adds drama and space paint darks thin and lights thick suggest the form rather than describing it always start with your darks and work to your lights, it is easy to lighten a colour but nearly impossible to properly darken it again. 👍 happy painting

[@kaariwallerich3287]

I'm so happy to have found this! :)

[@AI-xs4fp]

Lovely demonstration right down to the end of the brush technique. Much appreciated!

[@rachelconnor2327]

Wonderful, thank you. I love this series!

[@betoosses9431]

gran trabajo, muy hermosa Lisanne

[@rinosmeetngreedthusdays]

Rembrandt was a mad lad, led white holy lord.

[@cartapax5077]

All the new masters came here to 'comment'...really? Good job, lady.

[@etienne7774]

How can you paint like Rembrandt if you don't use talens Rembrand oil paint?

[@PeterJochems]

You can't. Rembrandt always used Talens Rembrandt oil paint.

[@JuanFecit]

RijksCreative , very good project!

[@kentesoriere7589]

Hi. Is this demonstration done in acrylics or oils? An important specific for me. Thank you all at Rijks Creative for these workshop videos. Best regards, Ken

[@Marysart]

It is done in Cobra water-mixable oil paints.

[@tajenderjoshi9927]

hello, actually in our country we don't have watermixable oil paints, so can I use normal oil paints? thank you!!!

[@RijksCreative]

Hello! Yes you can use normal oilpaints. In fact: That’s what Rembrandt did! 👨🏼‍🎨

[@tajenderjoshi9927]

Thank you very much😊😊

[@katharinamjaggi328]

This was so fun!

[@shreyasshankar4109]

I love you guys! Rijksmuseum's videos are my favourite! Please do more! Plus where can I find your insta profiles! Would love to see your work.

[@ΛάμπηςΒασιλειάδης-χ4μ]

It was very good. You are very good.

[@rodrigoalmeida9927]

Fantastic !! An african Rembrandt super!!

[@allenobrien9220]

I love your accent it is adorable 😘

[@MWinston]

Inspiring

[@evaschorsij4381]

hoi, ik heb even een tip; het is fijner om te kijken als de schilder ook soms naar de camera kijkt :) leuke video!

[@Likes_Trains]

I love this course; it's exactly what I've been looking for for years. I wonder; is there anywhere in the world that still teaches fine art techniques like this in person? I would love to learn the techniques historically taught in art academies. I have a lot of experience making art like this but want to improve to do it professionally. All universities I've looked into in the UK and the Netherlands only seem to teach more abstract fine art programmes. Any suggestions at all would be greatly appreciated :) Thank you again for this series!

[@PolarBear-rc4ks]

Just look up traditional fine art classes or classical classes, or just join some course online. I've heard that there are quite a few in Italy, but they can be quite snobby and pricey so yeah..

[@armida9999]

Hi, I know that at Repin Art Academy at St Petersburg they still teach all those old school fine art techniques in the same way they used to be taught in Europe. That’s the only place I know.

[@Likes_Trains]

@@armida9999 ah thank you so much for letting me know! I'll look into it :D

[@Marysart]

I know of two academies in The Netherlands. The "Klassieke Academie voor schilderkunst Groningen" and the Dutch atelier of realist art (DARA) in Haarlem. Good luck.

[@aminaa9797]

Is it possible to paint like this with acrylics ? I'm more comfortable with it

[@netsaosa4973]

nice!

[@wolflahti412]

The title is misleading, as this has nothing to do with painting a self-portrait.

[@VVhistory]

Self portrait of another person self portrait . not the same

[@maybemab1]

Those tutorials are so bad. I've never seen any "old masters" techniques tutorials accurate actually. All paintings before the 19th century were created with lots of successive layers on top of DRIED layers. The only white available was lead, a fast drying and slightly translucent color which made blending easier and natural. But one thing is certain, painters, even though they used different techniques from the renaissance to the baroque would never blend wet layers of paint together, or do direct alla prima paintings, like what is taught in modern realism academies. I wish true classical venetian, italian and flemish painting techniques was still taught somewhere.

[@tanyamattiss]

They are, in many books or the internet. Also there are still old master schools in italy and russia (and propably many other countries). If you want to see modern painters working like the old masters, I recomend you to look up robertoferri_italianpainter (genius), adammillerart or ania_tomicka on instagram or their websites. But there are also genius painters who are not following the old masters technique, but their own. Nothing is just black and white ;)

[@claygreen4723]

Dude it's a 20 minute video. I don't think anybody wants to spend several weeks or months literally waiting for paint to dry.

[@renejarr5292]

Yes that is right it never looks so like the original. Look on my Instagram page: rene_jarr_artist

[@zhangchiwang4379]

That’s why it’s so bad…

[@PolarBear-rc4ks]

The amount of butthurt people in the comments is sad, they all seem to have a complex about being the master painter etc Nice video anyways, cheers!

[@erlingandersen8008]

whats the point?

[@claygreen4723]

Being from South Carolina I appreciate the song "Dixie" in the background. A little unusual paired with Rembrandt but I like it!

[@thiagoolive28]

The light on this studio is not quite appropriate, there´s too much glow on the paint and it makes hard for the artist to see properly

[@elsagrace3893]

I thought we were going to learn how to paint our own portrait with expression and light and dark

[@FrenchToast663]

u can just draw your own face

[@jameyatesmauriat6116]

The transfer isn't useful here because she obviously hasn't committed to the lines of transfer, the likeness isn't the same

[@FrankDeruyck]

Honestly? It takes a lot more than this. It is not near Rembrandt between a 100 miles

[@lisengel2498]

If it was meant as a copy it missed the mystery of the darkness nearly making the eyes only like a shadow and a feeling of the shape - i found that the true nd also the maybe impossible to copy part -

[@mb-xr6dg]

Come on now Issana, you can't be serious!

[@avecanem]

A little bit more attention to how they film the painting. It has a horrible glair and looks worse than it actually is.

[@romanelcore10]

How can a national museum allow such an amateurish demonstration?

[@borisyepes2800]

Puro calco no hizo nada no le oscureció la cara no me gusto para nada el video

[@claire23780]

lissana,... this aint it

[@pongaseapintar3913]

u dont know how to paint, this appear like a no professional process, this is not complettetly process of rembrandt

[@tanyamattiss]

Obviously its not done yet. Many layers are still missing, it will take weeks or month to finish

[@andersaxelsson1429]

Didnt look like Rembrandt in any way. 😅

[@andersaxelsson1429]

😂 Thats nothing like Rembrandt.

[@arty4life]

DON’T WASTE YOUR TIME , 23:11 THIS IS THE END RESULT .. LOL

[@alirezaakbari459]

How to paint like Rembrandt : find a genie and ask for the same talent . You don't need any specific material or techniques afterwards . Some dirt as paint and your fingers as brush would suffice.

[@mikecastro2894]

Beautiful girl, beautiful presentation and scenery, but terrible painting

[@pietrochianese5022]

Dilettante

[@吴育相]

This type of blasphemous video should not have been allowed to be uploaded. If you paint like this, you will never remotely be able to paint like Maestro Rembrandt. Just what a blasphemy.

[@chriswhitehouse8982]

Why do you say that? Beginners have to start somewhere, right? This video is a good starting point.

[@secretarycat7367]

Tracing is cheating!!

[@estebanart1990]

Terrible demonstration. Really a shame.

[@achimborn5850]

So, if Rembrandt and any other old master had painted like this, you could buy Rembrandt at the flea market today for a few dollars. Dear painters here on KZbin: Do you really have no respect for anything or anyone anymore? Many amateur artists give instructions on how to paint a Carravagio, a Rembrandt, a Van Eyck, a Bouguereau, a...a.... But all is not even a hint of what is touted in the titles. An arrogant and pretentious new breed of smart alecks with no real knowledge, want to give here the impression of how the old masters painted. And the stupid viewers, who have never seen a Rembrandt etc. in "real" find this also still great. This is a dumbing down without borders! I am simply still speechless!

[@perozubac9752]

Good for nothing !
