Recreating my favourite painting with Oil Pastel | John Singer Sargent, Relaxing art process video

[@untitled_paintings]

this is just marvellous! oil pastels are such a difficult medium I find so I'm very impressed with this, you're an amazing artist!

[@MisakoFlodin]

Thank you so much! I appreciate that🥰

[@gabsl1552]

Agree with u

[@am-ir2bx]

Personally for me watercolour is harder, that's why I'm trying oil pastels as its more instinctive to me qwq

[@redvelvet9215]

Its easy if you have all the colors

[@keni419]

can i just say, i absolutely adore your style, currently you’re who i am looking up to in terms of getting better in art as a whole but especially oil pastels

[@MisakoFlodin]

when I started oil pastel I never would've thought that I could become a person that someone could look up to. I'm glad that I kept trying, your comment made me think it was all worth it. Thank you💌

[@denissemorales9947]

Same with me. I'm in love with oil pastels but sometimes I just get frustrated because I find them hard to use for details, but then I found your account by accident and you inspired me, I want to keep on practicing, you are goals.

[@karib3909]

And suddenly, just like that, I'm into oil pastels 💕

[@MisakoFlodin]

so sweet🥰✨✨

[@jemandjemand2362]

its so much easier to paint with pastels. no need to rush because the paint dryed or else.

[@charlotteboy6783]

This is really good. You did such a good job integrating all the different colors into the skin tone. It's like when you zoom out, it looks like skin, and then you zoom in and you can see all the gorgeous green and violet tones. 💜

[@MisakoFlodin]

I love adding vibrant colours to skins, I'm so glad you enjoyed my video🥰 I just uploaded my video this morning, hope you enjoy the new one as well💓

[@MP-zx8ig]

Your colour theory knowledge is astrinomical. You're a genius and your art is gorgeous😭😭👏👏

[@MisakoFlodin]

Thank you so much! I really appreciate it

[@emasilar1103]

I love watching artist who knows that skin in not only made out of skin colours but also with many different colours! It’s excellent :)

[@trandangkhoavu2095]

Yeah true!! On my way finding oil pastel channel have great work and found Misako, also found another good one name Cecilia Self Gallery. You could check on it, she has great work on skin colour too

[@flowerfields7224]

this is amazing, how do you understand where to put which colors so it doesn't just become a colorful mess and actually takes form and the colors speak to each other?! very impressive!!

[@Lifes1BeautifulRide]

It seems as though she is using cool colors in the shadows and warm colors in the lit areas of the face.

[@bowtiesandtophats2357]

I do something of a similar style and cool trick is to look at your reference photo and try to decide the dominant colour of the section for example if your drawing the tip of the nose look at your reference image and if it's more red then you take a deeper red pastel to do that section and if the skin is still very pale but slightly cooler in tone you ramp up the saturation and use are much deeper green or blue

[@jemandjemand2362]

every colour is a lot of colours. green is yellow and blue. so you can use those colours to shade, like orange is red and yellow so you can use those two within something that is just orange

[@alejandromolinac]

She understand fundamental "color theory"

[@sweetLemonist]

If you get the values right the hues don't even matter that much.

[@raerae6422]

The cat is possibly unaware of how immensely skilled her bestie is.

[@half-doomed]

The final few shots of you delicately applying the white highlight in the eyes, for some reason, made me very emotional. Your art is beautiful, and so is the way you've captured your process.

[@juanreyesjunior]

When the exhibition “Sargent: Portraits of Artists and Friends” came to the Met, I went every weekend for over a month, and I remember being particularly enthralled by the painting you’re studying here, I felt very lucky to be able to see such an awesome collection of his work in-person, probably the most impactful exhibition I’ve ever been to, loved it so much. You really brought me right back to that time. Great job, you really did it justice :•)

[@MisakoFlodin]

Thank you for telling your story with this painting! I'm so happy that this video reached someone who loves his art🥰💓

[@sansyt0]

I love how the pastel strokes seem to add "movement" to the portrait. Wonderful job.

[@kronkilton2153]

It’s so satisfying to see confident strokes and artist’s skills. The moment I’d touched the face I’d be crying on the floor

[@kiwipower129]

Amazing work! I'm in love with your art style. The colour palette is subtly unnatural, yet hints at the human's skin tone and normal shadows. You have immense talent.

[@MisakoFlodin]

Thank you! I appreciate it so much🤍

[@steph1554]

My toxic trait is thinking that I can do this

[@josephcote8634]

With practice and $ for supplies, you can

I tried and then realized why my main medium is charcoal 💀💀

[@mcsnowPRIVATE]

And my toxic trait is telling you you can.

Beautiful work. John Singer Sargent is one of my favorite artists so to see you do this was a real treat. Excellent from start to finish.

[@MisakoFlodin]

I appreciate it!☺️

[@TheGoldsholl]

This is absolutely stunning. So confident to lay down such strong decisions and stick with it. The end result is remarkable. I love how the first colors put down change by blending the finished layer

[@MisakoFlodin]

I appreciate that☺️✨ I still get amazed by how the colours turn out at the end. They are unpredictable and I truly enjoy the process💓

It honestly looked like a painting, I was both pleasantly surprised and confused, but non the less AMAZED by the art work-

[@MisakoFlodin]

Thank you so much🥰 I’m glad you enjoyed it!

[@knockknock_art]

I felt bad because someone had been yelling at me since morning, and I was thinking about how to make myself feel better, and I thought it would be nice to see your painting. Now I feel better now. Thank you🌿

[@justmedidi]

becoming increasingly fascinated with oil pastels these days and watching you work sealed the deal for me! cannot wait to give them a try :)

[@MisakoFlodin]

happy to hear that!🥰hope you love oil pastels!

[@adrianadri354]

The eyes are beautifully melancholic!!!

[@julia.saifan]

So many useful things can be learned by passing all the colors and shapes through the hands! I have copied Sargent's portraits more than once and this is a valuable experience for me as an artist.

[@dragonssociety3371]

This looks like a “trust the process” way of painting. The colors you use look so wild and crazy until you blend them together and all the sudden they make sense. Very beautiful.

[@KelseyRodriguez]

This was one of the most gorgeous draw with me videos I've seen in ages! Honestly really inspiring me to give oil pastels another go. Subscribed and really excited to see what else you make!

[@MisakoFlodin]

Hi Kelsey! Thank you for saying that, it means the world to me🥺💓 I'm excited to share more of my drawings on youtube✨

Thank you So Much for your demonstration. As an oil pastel artist learning portraiture , it is difficult to translate oil painting procedures to oil pastels. We do not need to mix colors. This has been more heLpful than I can adequately express.

[@Shmitters]

I think that oil pastels are such an underrated medium! They look so nice when used correctly and acquire, atleast when I use them, great concentration which makes them even more desirable, as I think that making art with a difficult medium feels better in the end than with an easy one. I remember my first time drawing with them... I got so angry as why I couldn't do any nice details. But then I learned, that the beauty of oil pastels doesn't come from the details you put in the work, but from the way you organize them on your drawing; How one mixes and connects the colours. Truly a beautiful medium. Great work!

[@minalmohanty-music8932]

My mind is blown!!!! Your art style is so amazing, you are like a traditional world class artist from the 1700s. Your style is so beautiful.
