OIL PAINTING - Bull Moose, My Process and Techniques, Wildlife Art

In this painting video I cover tips and tricks on how I paint wildlife and my process of completing an oil painting such as this. Moose are some of my favorite subjects and I was thrilled when I was able to spend some time near this bull while out camping recently. I share my techniques and take you through my process of creating this beautiful scene.

Chuck, it's amasing seeing how your techniques have developed over the years of watching you paint!!! Your commentary seems a lot more relaxed, too. It's like the more you explore methods of painting, the more relaxed you've become with it. The details are still very much present, but you've developed a more relaxed way of portraying them. Perfectly beautiful result, too!!!!!

[@chuckblackart]

Always appreciate it Mark!! I do feel more relaxed overtime I think that is true and I'm happy you take notice to the growth in my brushwork. That's sometime I constantly think about and work on. Thanks always!!

[@laurenpiantino8312]

Superb! Simply superb. I will watch it again later because I viewed this time with the sound muted, but as usual your expert style and talent is so inspirational, and educational. Now I need to listen for the tips and tricks part. Thank you! :)

[@chuckblackart]

Glad you enjoyed it! Thank you so much Lauren

[@rodneyzurek4900]

Beautiful representation of the animal and the background! Do you recommend smaller work for novices?

[@chuckblackart]

Yes and no, it helps to become comfortable with your colors but once you are, moving to larger sizes can help provide a lot of valuable lessons and growth

[@josepueblito9601]

Eres muy talentoso pintas muy excelente ojalá algún día me donaras una de tus pinturas.saludos de Queretaro México.

[@rachelboren6079]

Chuck, your work is just utterly gorgeous. I have been watching you for awhile now and I've watched you transition from acrylic to acrylic with oil to complete oil painting. So, I am curious: what do you like best?? What do you recommend? I also am an artist and have been using acrylic for quite some time. As I have watched you evolve I have not only seen your growth but how confident you have become with painting in general. I suppose when you are confident and painting becomes more natural to you, oil is a better paint to use??? Please tell me your thougts!!

[@chuckblackart]

Thanks Rachel I appreciate it. I definitely have to say I prefer oils and although I love the path I took which got me here, experimenting with all other mediums in the past, oils is what I need to achieve what I'm after. It's tough and intimidating but there is only one way to learn. Over the years it eventually becomes natural to you, just takes patience! :)

[@rebekahbrooks6595]

As always, your work is amazing!! How many hours go into an 8x10 like this?

[@chuckblackart]

It's a full three days of working at the easel I think. Thanks Rebekah!

[@uncleatelier8495]

You're really good at drawing. ~~^^😎😎🤣🤣🧑

[@silviaodlerart]

You are such awesome painter!Wow Did you mix oil paint with something else...

[@chuckblackart]

No just oils with thinner and liquin impasto medium. Thank you!!

[@denisewolf2924]

WOOOW!!!! EXCELLENT TUTORIAL... THANK YOU CHUCK!!! LOVED IT AND MOOSE ARE MY FAVORITE❤️

Awesome art can you paint black forest in Germany with train plz

[@markstolley7241]

Are you using a quarter inch synthetic dagger brush?

[@roseeartworksnl7992]

Chuck love your work but I'm an acrylic painter. Can I transfer your tutorials to paint it with acrylics. I can't use oils...Moose are part of our culture...You're an amazing artist and teacher....

[@chuckblackart]

I really think you can yes, but the only difference is you would most likely be painting wet over dry paint which is fine, but takes some extra patience and effort to get just right. The process I think is the same though

[@roseeartworksnl7992]
