Nicky Henderson - Abstract Oil Painting Sped Up

[@cammiebutler]

Where is this artist now? Love your work!!! The music you use with your art is pure magic !

[@mspelleri]

very interesting. I like your homemade tools. great idea!

[@uriosrob]

another wonderful painting !!!!

[@Devansh10003]

it's the coolest way to play around with colors... thanks for sharing :)

[@TeamPhooz]

Good Stuff!!! This is what I like to see!!!!!!! You should let me know how you did your scrapers. Each time I make one it ends up falling apart

[@stretch1807]

Dude, you had the painting at 2:41 - look closely in the center

[@steffen3]

You are the REAL artist. :)

[@kyotopmac]

I agree but not just then. He had a painting a few more times throughout that was better than the end result.

[@demetriosnikolianos1912]

Oh my Belphegor Demon, what a talent!

[@meeranadig4618]

Great idea!!! It is like playing with colors

[@WildFloArt]

Music credits please? Great artwork and liked your squeegee making.

[@yuriybesarab11]

Dear Nicky, thanks aplenty for sharing the video! Could you tell how you made those scrapers? Which material did you use? Best!

[@ike780]

There. Don't give up until you find that spark of genius.

[@dalefisher1321]

Look at the face at 2:41. I like it but definitely would have stopped at 2:41.

[@pialynn9619]

This was really interesting to watch. I thought the colours would mix a lot and turn muddy after processing the layers so much and in so many directions. But they stayed really vibrant! I guess you’re using really thick non diluted oil paint?

[@aliblack9144]

very nice work Nicky! what kind of oil paints do use? thank you in advance. ali

[@moobrien3514]

love this technique!

[@hermitcrypto2787]

Gee i wonder where he got this idea… ahem Gerhard Richter… it still takes experience to know when to stop and when to destroy…

[@patriciademendoncanascimen5772]

Hi Nicky, have you ever tried to aply gesso as an under layer and scrap it just to get more texture in the final painting? Regards, Pat

[@NickyHendersonArt]

Hey Pat, good idea! I have only overpainted a dried and very textured abstract that I wasn't happy with. The results were crazy. I'll let you know when I upload that painting to my website. I'll try your idea in the meantime

[@remyhamilton-hughes7584]

Hey Nicky, fantastic and fantastical work! Quick question ... do you at any stage let the paint dry before the next one, or it’s as quick as the video?

[@lmj0687]

What materials did you use for your squeegess? The paintings are coming out great, they look amazing.

[@patriciademendoncanascimen5772]

Hi Nicky, great artwork, but how long does it take for so many layers of oil paint to dry completly, or you add something to speed the drying process? Regards from Brazil. Patrícia

[@NickyHendersonArt]

Hey Patricia, thanks very much! I tend to leave my paintings for 3 or 4 weeks before they are dry enough to blacken the edges, but I like to leave them for at least 2 months before varnishing them. Best of luck if you're trying something similar, Nicky

[@UnSung_Studio]

thanks for sharing this. inspiring.

[@alex39314]

Merci Gerhard Richter

[@dogeeen]

Really cool bro

[@GusArancibia]

Amazing work! Can use this technique with acrylic paint?

[@NickyHendersonArt]

Thanks! I am sure you could, I have heard of people using retarder and water with acrylics so they wont dry too fast. It is important to have wet layers underneath which you can scrape in to

[@GusArancibia]

Nicky Henderson Thx for the advice! Keep uploading videos!

[@abstractbybrian]

You could try Golden Opens

[@loopbasedzero]

acrylic is far less forgiving due to the difference in drying time.

[@rhgoodmusic]

good music! what is that please?

[@NickyHendersonArt]

This is it: They're Going to Take My Thumbs by: Holy fuck music video

[@thomasackerman3995]

nice..well done!

[@javierdiaz9497]

Richter style. Nice

[@ceciltan5263]

Nicky its Thick Oil.Do you have to varnish for protektion..and How long is the drying time. Love your technique so much☺

[@urbancodemag]

This painting might be a bit overworked.

[@alyciadavis8133]

Where did you get the wooden handle?

[@yvesfremin4388]

Did you invent this trechnique, or did you copy it ?

[@dianetina]

Beautiful

[@franciscacabralaguilera7948]

Mencanta..un oleeeeee👏👏👏👏👏

[@marabauerart]

Nice Video, thanks

[@ob7367]

You're Awesome!

[@abukhodairkarim]

wow beautiful

[@cohencohen54]

Richter stole the idea from a German painter. We all stand on each other’s shoulders.

[@albertomariotti5818]

nicky es totalmente impersonal lo tuyo, ya sabemos de quien es la tecnica que usas tu, te recomiendo que busques tu propio camino.

[@putnam136]

seen this technique one too many times. its tiring to see it so overdone. Richter takes the cake.

[@poopymcfartass1640]

I feel like with this style no 2 are the same... Gerard Richter made a lot of good paintings but a lot of them looked boring and lacking too... I also think no 2 people using this same technique will do it quite the same way, so maybe some people will make them more appealing than others...

[@azadehnikou9890]

Thanks for sharing.

[@karinamartinez-oq7xl]

Me encanta !!!

[@frankauerbach]

you have overdone it

[@navinarts8487]

wow amaizing

[@grgbpm]

nice music!

[@PansexLanza]

I like your art and you are handsome..

[@marymary5494]

👌💕

[@lloydguillen756]

Wow. A lot of you people are clueless when it comes to present day art culture. All credits go to Gerhard Richter.

[@sebastiannowakowski5084]

Lloyd Guillen and you are what? I cant say i dont like This Guy's work. Do you paint yourself? Have you any idea how many artists use the same technique or materials?

[@poopymcfartass1640]

[@AX1A]

totally agree with seb and mcfart -- think richter comes from mars? "you wanna talk influence man? thats just old information coming through my NEW mind" --Jean Michel Basquiat Carry on Nikky..

[@self-love2355]

Fuck yea

[@MrJacobpoliquin]

Gerhard Richter would be proud

[@giovannarossin6081]

grande Cagata Copiata

[@travissowell2347]

And you still are not finished...

[@thomasackerman3995]

Do the do..poo the poo

[@marmaduketylor4583]

Super crap

[@josephcambron7060]

Flailing and destroying the best parts. Should have stopped way sooner.

[@igorliga974]

plagiarism, Gerhard Richter

[@Diozark]

Boring to watch all that work to end up with 3 colors, yawn.

[@firdouschoudhury6401]

Does this require artistic intellect. What he demonstrated is mechanical skill. Pathetic.
