How to Use Sand Paper on a Painting | Tutorial by Jan-Ove Tuv

In this video you will learn about using sandpaper to:
• Remove your "loyalty" to previous mistakes
• Creating better grip for the next layer
• Achieve clarity of form
• Create impression of hair
• Break down contrast
• Bring forth underlaying paint, allowing different layers to play together
• Create impression of texture

Thought you were painting the lovely Alistar, your films are so relaxing thank you

[@jimcortez3293]

Thanks for the demo, and for the admonition to be careful with lead white I would also add cadmiums, and a number of other pigments to this list. Also, yellow ocher, and raw sienna, although earth pigments, the natural versions can contain crystalline silica, and you don't want that in the lungs either.

[@Rolfs-Royce]

great video. I have heard talk of sanding down paintings in your podcast, but not quite understood how it works. Thank you

[@giuseppebifulco4848]

Jan-Ove Tuv would like to see how you start and build up a self-portrait,I really like the one in the video :)

[@SchoolofApelles]

You are lucky then :) We have covered the first twelve sessions of this self-portrait on our Patreon. You can watch the preview of the first session here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/qnKnfpqPaat2n5o

[@allyy210]

What colour did you paint for the background in this portrait? Is it yellow ochre

[@friedricengravy6646]

I think this is a good portrait. Who am I? Lol U don’t require my validation, but I wanted to pay u a compliment. Thank u for the content. Also, being that I am getting up in age myself, I hope Mr. Nerdrum is doing well. The best to all of u! Cheers from Missouri (a midwestern state in the U.S.) ✌🏻

[@EECV88]

Do you give it again any impasto textures after sanding?

[@sujanithtottempudi2991]

You might remove gesso by this....which is bad for painting?

[@joecombs7468]

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

[@CuquiLopezCasas]

I would have stopped the video and make myself comfortable. A steady surface is essential dont you think? On the haters i really dont see why they waste their time. This is a technique than can be used in any contemorary setting. If the people in northern europe like this fairy moods let them be man. I am very grateful for all the free advice. A caballo regalao no se le miran los dientes. No sean desagradecidos. Thanks! Great demo.

[@sydene54]

white is thicker paint than dark, right?

[@sydene54]

isn't the painting too low down to work on optimally?

[@eu210495]

Also careful with cadmium based pigments.

[@Thesamurai1999]

How would you recommend cleaning brushes that got cadmium on it?

[@Santiago-vq2wf]

❤❤❤

[@sydene54]

self portrait?

[@shuvoDhar.5537]

❤❤❤❤❤

[@lancekent1066]

Are there any dangers of particle inhalation with this technique?

[@SchoolofApelles]

Watch the last part of the video!

[@IsThatYouSimon]

I’m french so may be i misunderstood. What’s the point to sand it ? To make it appear old ? Or repaint over then after (but if this idea why not directly paint over ?)

How to get cancer without knowing your getting cancer.

[@KpxUrz5745]

Ok, but sooner or later one has to paint, not sand. A painting is made of brush strokes.

[@sydene54]

thank you COVID for the easy aquisition of masks!

[@achimborn5850]

How will you ever free yourself from the clutches of Odd Nerdrum. All his students paint only worse versions of Nerdrum. But what's worse is that it's this kind of kitsch that's to blame for the fact that you hardly ever see contemporary realist painting in museums anymore.

[@1977ajax]

What absolute twaddle.

[@erik_carter_art]

I feel the greatest success out of Nerdrum's mentorship is Guillermo Lorca, and I think the main reason he is the most successful is because he departed so profoundly from Nerdrum's style and paved his own way in his artistic practice. ^_^
