Painting a Large Abstract Oil Painting - Nicky Henderson

[@anandsart5285]

Great work Nicky. You add your own to it which makes it you.

[@artisdeadlongliveart]

Dude! The first swipe of blue on the red was INSANE!!! Good work buddy!!

[@juannuevo7880]

Fantastic. I paint with a window cleaning squishy. .. awesome work. Keep it up 🎨🎨🎨 Art For Ever

[@KeenyNewton]

Gorgeous piece. I think size on abstract matters, it brings out the vastness and details like a small piece can’t.

[@annar8476]

Thanks Nicky for showing painting technique! It has opened a completely different approach for me and these tools that I never knew existed ... Your paintings are beautiful! About G. Richter - he is unfortunately not so inclined to share and show his painting technique. That there is to see in his latest film is just crumbs! Talk about sharing or to have it all for yourself!

[@thevikingsdaughter4225]

I love this piece of art. I dont care who it imitates, as you made a beautiful work and im sure G.R would say that too. If we cant imitate and reinvent styles and feels and techniques, then we should all hang up our brushes and be done with it ... all the greats are borrowed from and so they should be, they are our mentors no ?

[@gavinyates9189]

Keep up the good painting squishy across canvas along with some nice smashy.

[@seankeil4234]

I've uses putty or drywall knives in the past. I need to start painting again.

[@firdouschoudhury6401]

Being from non artist background I always thought art is a result of concept, artistic transformation on a canvas by an artist with his brush and color. Here Nicky showed the greater artist is the roller. A renote control robot can help him a lot. At least he would saved from so much of mechanical hard labour.

[@marabauerart]

nice painting, I like it.

[@pattywickson9046]

Just as good as Richters paintings.

[@dianetina]

Awesome work , i love all your paintings ..could you tell me what the white stuff you use towards the end of the video , it kind of looks like a paste ...could you tell me ? Thanks ...keep up the good work

[@NickyHendersonArt]

dianetina Thanks! It's just white oil paint

[@alicewyan]

Lovely work! I was wondering if you had to build the large squeegees that you use to spread the paint yourself, or are they repurposed tools.

[@wolfsommer1767]

That is so cool white shirt and mucking about with paint - his mum must be so proud - "look mum all dun paint on wall paint on canvas no paint on shirt oops sorry about the pants "

[@brianphillips7420]

Awesome!

[@uriosrob]

wonderful !!!!!

[@KevinDavidLee1]

Great work. Do you let the first red layer dry completely first or just paint wet on wet?

[@NickyHendersonArt]

Thanks. I paint wet on wet, usually I make the first layer wetter than the other layers by adding linseed oil

[@donemigholzjr.7344]

Gerhard Richter Painting technique

[@yuandi8129]

Good use of G. Richter Technic. Do you make tools by yourself ?

[@cliffdariff74]

Expanding the technique is good..

[@tamlansaoudi]

Do you let the colours underneath dry first?

[@Argendiego]

Hello Nicky, Thanks for your tutorial. You use varnish to protect your textured paintings?, or cold wax?.

[@brunomartelli8163]

Hey Nicky, well done. Please can you tell my the specifications of your rakel ? how thick is the plexiglas ? measure ?

[@luismonge8331]

Plexiglas is 2mm thick..

[@lindaseguin8271]

How do you vanish large canvas, evenly? ...Please

[@fadifadi1083]

Very nice

[@carluciobicudo5582]

Good afternoon, Nicky Henderson! I'm from Brazil and would like to know what kind of ruler you use in your paintings? Could you inform? Thank you very much in advance!

[@headtommie]

Are all your works in oil, or do you use acrylic as well? Do you always do wet on wet - in either medium?

[@dogeeen]

Beautiful work

[@vitaliykutsenko4350]

Gerhard Richard started this tecnic

[@junetee52]

and who started with a brush? bc everyone is copying him :p

[@fmaspoli]

however, it looks great.

[@tanjis.lundberglundberg3880]

Is this a tecnic you have come up by your self?

[@ghostcontrollingameatsuit5119]

+tanjis.lundberg lundberg I believe Gerhard richter came up with it

[@PainterLady]

In the beginning whst did you pour over the pile of red paint?

[@lukeiam0]

Most likely it was linseed oil.

[@veroniquefournier4783]

It would be better verticaly ,like reflects on water

[@paulhenry8998]

cooooool

[@renatomonteiro1973]

pinellll, muito loucooooo...

[@anneliekoster6807]

Sehr schön

[@coreafan]

reminds me Gerhard Richter, great !!

[@MrJacobpoliquin]

coreafan its exactly the same technique, colour scheme...not even trying to be different

[@Bavubuka]

Must have cost a lot in paint no?

[@Bavubuka]

Gerhard Richter

[@firdouschoudhury6401]

If wiping and rolling is painting then no one would have attended an art school. This cant be a painting

[@vancini.pidgaynini]

Жалкая пародия на Рихтера! Чистая комерция, ни какого искусства!

[@berndl.5214]

Jeder fängt mal an…😬

[@raulesteras7654]

Busca tu propio lenguaje !!

[@coloradojoe6274]

When people look at your paintings they will think Gerhard Richter and not you. Do something different with it to call it your own. Peace.

[@Davidperdigao]

gerhard richter imitation... how can you sleep at night?

[@juannuevo7880]

How do you paint? Surely you must paint after some one??

[@sybilleuitz6199]

Juan Nuevo

[@junetee52]

so everyone who paints with a brush is a Bob Ross imitation? LOL another art idiot

[@juannuevo7880]

***** so if you paint with brushes who are you copying? Monet, Davinci, Goya, Picasso? Another Art ignorant.

[@Davidperdigao]

+Juan Nuevo your answer is my point. when you look to Monet, Davinci, Goya, Picasso they are all different styles using brush.
