Very good info. I like it. I recently witnessed someone ask an artist friend of mine how she painted such realistic, glowing candle flames. I don't remember what her response was, but I was thinking to myself "It's just shapes and color; everything we paint is just shapes and color. Get the shapes and color correct, and you got it." Technically, it's more complex than that, but that's the bassic way of saying it. I love your videos. Thanks so much.

I have been making art for most of my 44 years on this earth, and this is probably the best advice I have ever heard. Thank you for sharing!

Love the video. I feel like being able to draw has given me an unfair advantage as I enter into the world of painting sometimes but then I get caught up on the paint mixing side of things and I’m humbled once again. I’ve wasted so much paint trying to get the right color only to need just a tiny bit of it in my painting.

Great video and tips! I learned some interesting things for which I thank you very much! However, I must add something of my own, as this is a subject very close to my heart. It's true that you don't need to train a crocodile to paint it, as long as you have a reference. I believe that you can absolutely paint anything if you have a reference (whether it's a photo or a real model/object). The problem starts when you want to paint something but don't have a reference. You'll never paint it 100% correctly. This is kind of my problem because I study the subject for a long time, collect references that are "more or less" similar to my ideas, but in the end, when I ask myself, "Would what I just painted look like this if I had a real-life reference? Definitely not! I messed everything up." And that's more or less how it looks. Of course, you can create a similar model as at 2:30. I do this in 3D. Unfortunately, you still can't paint a figure correctly in such lighting if you haven't studied the figure in general. I worked on such a drawing for 8 months. Trying to figure out on my own how the figure should look in the place and lighting I imagined. 8 months of cursing and telling myself that I can't do anything. Finally, after a few months of searching, I managed to find the right references and finish the drawing. Conclusion: you can paint anything if you have a reference. If you don't have it, you still need to study the object. Because you can't paint a crocodile if you've never seen a crocodile. You also can't paint it if you've seen it three times in photos and have a rough idea of what it looks like. It's just impossible. Fun fact: I specifically practiced lucid dreaming so I could construct my scene in a dream, examine it, and remember the important moments to paint them after waking up.😅🐊

Yep, that's the thing: for realism, a model is always needed. It's very hard to make something look realistic without a reference.
