Oil Painting Demo - Painted from Life - Wet on Dry - Jar of Oil

[@1974gladiateur]

I just can't believe an artist like Mark do all that work for us for free. Every other artist I was looking at on KZbin or Internet was asking for money. And on top of that nobody is teaching like he does. Love all the videos, thanks again Mark. I bought the paint, the brush holder and the proportional divider. Just great stuff.

[@IFRSKIES]

Yes he is great. My favorite instructor on KZbin. Great voice, makes you laugh at times because he is so honest, and truly knowledgeable artist.

[@marcuscassius312]

MR PEEVES I know that but video wise he doesn’t receive anything.

[@damienkearns3654]

Great post mate 🙏💜

[@petite2276]

Really? I thought Bob Ross's videos were free

[@garygencarelle9534]

Again thank you Mark for all the help.

[@1974gladiateur]

Another beautiful lesson. What I like the most is the comments during the process. The best thing is that he film it before and then he does the recording on top of the filming. Nice work again Mr. carder.

[@hilary729]

Such a helpful video. Thank you , Mark. The best teacher by far on the internet !!! I use just your Geneva paint now and cannot recommend it more highly.

[@MrRalvsx]

Beautiful, Mark! I absolutely love your work. I wish I could go through one of your workshops! I have learned so much from just your videos. More than anything else out there. Thank you!

[@RaymondOreFineArt]

Another great demo, I tried painting in this style for the first time a month ago and although I've a very long way to go I ended up with the best painting I've ever done and that's after 40 years of on and off painting

[@marcuscassius312]

Same here.

[@beckyg9831]

Who thought a simple jar of oil could look so beautiful?!

[@CatsInaCradle]

I realize this video is from last August but I am somehow just now running across it. I dont know how I missed it! I just wanted to thank you so much for all your help and fantastic instruction Mark. You've helped me tremendously as I am very new to oil painting. I fell in love with oils and I was always afraid to try them until now. I'm finally getting my confidence up to enjoy it and I just can't thank you enough. ❤

[@odwaynejohnson4284]

Alicia Hadden are you an artists too

[@brittanieboulton188]

Thank you so much for all of these videos. I just now watched the video of your wife painting the cup of coffee and it really showed all of the things that you always say are key in making your painting look realistic. She did amazing on the painting and a really good job talking us through the technique. I am excited to become a much better painter now that I am venturing into oils and realistic paintings, and so thankful for your channel!

[@kasiakaygallery]

Mark, THANK YOU for your brilliant teaching! you’re the best. Thank You.

[@sherrierichard2848]

It was a great learning experience watching both of your Jar of Oil videos.Thanks for sharing your knowledge with us. Also your videos are very professionally shot, and your commentary along with them is always to the point about what you are doing and why. Thanks!

[@clarapablo]

Amazing video Mark, thank you so much for all your teaching I really appreciate it I'm working on my second painting using your Geneva oil paints I'm very happy with them

[@H0tDawgWater911]

Mark you're a beast. These videos are gold

[@joepaintslife]

Nice vid Mark. Very relaxing to watch. Thanks for emphasizing the difference between your method of learning and your method of painting. That often gets overlooked. Love the final painting as well.

[@noname-nu6oo]

My favorite artist channel.

[@VladimirOnOccasion]

Spent four years at art school and they show none of this, lucky I was older before I went and had an basic understanding...but not sure why this isn't shown to art students.

[@KpxUrz5745]

There is extreme reticence by art school professors to actually teach anything. In my experience the professors were just place holders, who chose not to step over any line because not all students respond well to attempts to teach specific skills. Actually, I do not think the professors had any skills to teach even if they could. My conclusion was this was the beginning of Political Correctness. Schools don't want to offend any student because that could affect their income. Plus, it seems so much more "progressive" to just let all students do their own thing, where professors act as little more than a brief sounding board. I believe the schools should at least offer courses based on specific skills, to those students who want to develop actual skills. The bottom line at Art School: it gives you time to teach Yourself!

[@beckywebb1916]

It depends on what university you attend. I learned classical painting techniques and anatomy at Fontbonne University by professors who also regularly show and sell their work. I wouldn’t trade what I learned there for anything.

[@Dr10Jeeps]

Beautiful painting. Your videos are extremely informative. Thank you.

[@kamlikachandlafineart]

What a gorgeous painting. Love it. Thank you for such a wonderful video.

[@Marilyn8087]

Thank you so much for taking the time to make these video to help us learn how to paint. You have helped me tremendously.

[@renanbuzineartist]

Just thank you for sharing a lot of precious information about oil paint, thousands of success to you...

[@SilverPlum]

Thank you Mark, another Great lesson. Question, closely related, do you ever paint use the Grisaille method, using a Dead layer? If so, how would you make a transparent paint, using your method of paint formulation?

[@heber143]

Thank you Mark. Incredibly helpful as always.

[@kisook7677]

Hi this is my first time ever to write review .. but I really want to say thank you for all your considerate advise how to do painting. What I have been wondering, what I have been feeling something is missing.. about painting,.. i though it was my problem, but you gave me lot of answer. Thank you sooooo much.

[@prestonreyes]

Love the info on the fat over lean. Great stuff. Thank you

[@jcepri]

Thank you for sharing your incredible expertise with us. This is outstanding.

[@KaustavMukherjeeFineArt]

Thanks for the video Mr.Carder.

[@artistcarl5970]

Thanks so much for your videos... just discovered you today... been painting for years but already have learned new things 👍🏻

[@joanholmes3382]

dear mark carder, thank you so much for your wonderfully informative videos. It is a great service for learning artists like me, sincerely, joan holmes

[@kalinamasash1137]

I have a lot of respect for You Such good person and artist . Hello from Poland :)

[@ajinjacob8742]

Nice painting!!!Thank you for such a wonderful video

[@InLawsAttic]

Thank you so much. I bought a pizza rack from amazon to dry paintings in between coats. Learning so much- subbed and will be buying from your website. Thank you.

[@Janet_scribbles]

I am learning so much from your videos! Thank you!

[@aesaehttr]

Good idea to use the hand steady-stick!

[@willemvanosnabrugge3994]

I am looking forward to you coming out with your palettes. It would be very helpful if you could also sell tubes of alkyd paint for staining the canvass, which is a match for the color of the palette.

[@sleepyheadsleeps]

will try your painting teqnique and use your advice on my still life painting, will let you know of my progress. many thanks mike uk.

[@damienkearns3654]

Love your videos Mark, thank you for your knowledge 🙏💜 Giving away paintings as well, incredible ❤️

[@anitadavis5430]

Questions about composition and moving the eye through a painting. It's a confusing idea to me. What are the distinct techniques that we can pull into our painting in order to keep or move the eye where we want it to go? For example, I know that a strong slanting line moving off the canvas can move the eye right out of the painting, so we can darken, or soften that line as it moves toward the canvas edge, or we can plop an object or some other subtle eye catcher to slow the eye's movement. I've heard of linking your lights, or connecting your darks, or using color repetition to move the eye around. Could you discuss how you think about some of these subtle but important methods? Thanks. I love your videos. You always choose your words so well to explain what exactly you are teaching.

[@pw6titanium]

Look up myron barnstone if you want to learn composition

[@patriciabrickell4005]

Thank you so much for the teaching

[@leonryan8895]

Hello Mark, Greetings from Ireland. I watch all of the videos with great interest, but I still struggle with colour matching, especially when trying to match a colour from an iPad or Laptop screen, have you any tips for improving this aspect of colour matching? Many thanks for the effort you put into the channel, its simply inspiring to watch. Leon.

[@1974gladiateur]

Print the picture and then you can match the color. But even that is difficult to do.

[@leonryan8895]

Hey Sebastien.. Thanks for the shout back!... Yeah, My printer isn't always behaving, and sometimes with no ink its just as easy to have the iPad, Finding it really tough to accurately match without painting a sample on a laminated image the way I usually would. Skin tones a particular difficult one. You ever come across a solution to ipad matching???

[@calvancandy8384]

Another great demonstration Mark. I have a question - is there anyway to resolve the problem of the line that shows through my black background, since I left it to dry instead of finishing it. Now the dry line shows through is there anyway to cover it? Thanks

[@matthewwilliams2014]

What solvent do you use when you put your first coat on?

[@dn4884]

How is your paint so thin?? do you thin it down before you begin painting? because it seems so smooth and thin compared to the oils I use, always very thick and I can never thin it down to the right amount

[@poopgross1908]

He uses paint that already has medium mixed into it

[@antbaily4762]

Great Videos! Just one thing...why do you not show the part of a painting when you need to paint up to the lines you drew. I am curious to know what brush you use for tight places...

[@sooth15]

Wow, I had no idea something like that was a federal crime in the US (possibly also in Canada?) I will definitely enter to win. It's a beautiful painting, and it would be wonderful to own an original Carder piece!

[@sooth15]

Also, I just want to make a quick little comment to say that I was amazed to see how bad the dried-out painting looked in the brief shot you showed of it. It's amazing how much loss of colour and depth there is just by losing the gloss.

[@clownpocket]

+Ludwin V It's online gambling, illegal in some states

[@chrisgriffith1573]

Lot of great info here. Thank you. Light and color is elusive with the values are deeper than that of a camera's range, anything beyond 200 in an RGB scale of intensity will drop out when the range for color is truncated by an ISO reading from say, anything above 40 and less than 170. So 200 is black, 170 is black, too. I made my color checker after seeing you use the one you have off the Geneva site. Mine is made of a bronze door plate cover, which I sawed, bent and tooled down to the right shapes. It's a real Godsend! but I use my pallet knife more now that I see the value in it, it's just way faster that way, the paint is already there, just hold it at the right angle and see it next to the color you are trying to get...

[@paulbrown6008]

Thank you so much for the two videos on this subject, but I have a question about painting wet over dry: Would you ever use retouch varnish over the dry paint instead of oiling out?

[@michaelwould]

Do you only use those 5 colors for everything? unless you need the "Vibrant" organge/green that you were talking about in a previous video.

[@haysamnonstop]

Thank you for that great video Mark. Would like to know what do you think about Vladimir Volegov brush work in his paintings, do you think he is achieving the 5 qualities of realism? Thank you very much!

[@dream.fiiend]

is there going to be any sweepstakes coming up?

[@stevesatterwhite5141]

How long before a day's work gets dry enough to be considered dry? I am just starting out with painting, but I think I want to work about an "hour each day" on three ongoing paintings. If I paint on all three paintings daily for two weeks, then I think I will still be pretty much wet-on-wet for at least a week, right? One off-subject question: I bought a decent quality new easel, but it's an A type. Now as I listen and watch and learn, I think that the H model would be better. That one short holder/stop on the top of an A is really designed to put the painting close to the top. I thank I think should return it, and get the H model instead. Starting out, I want to buy good gear that will not drag me down a wrong road, a road that will mean frustration and do-overs, a road full of time-wasters that will just make me cuss a lot. Or is there something wrong with my thinking. At my age I am always surprised that I am still thinking at all.

[@anomander4985]

Mark, why don't you start with the middle tones?

[@DG-ri1lp]

hI LOVE YOUR WORK. What kind of brushes do you use, soft synthetic or bristle?

[@mikederby9055]

Is it Cad Yellow or Cad Yellow Light? I think I have heard you mention both and I have both mixed.

[@1974gladiateur]

Go on Geneva paint and you will see the different paint he uses. It's Cadnium Yellow.

[@1974gladiateur]

It's Cadnium Yellow

[@1974gladiateur]

What brand are you using Mark. It doesn't look like Windsor Newton brushes.

[@karenmccarthy5110]

I just find this mezmerising!!!!!

[@starforged]

Would painting with acrylics on the base cure your cracking?

[@satchelyork]

No that will increase it more likely than cure it as acryl makes a closed surface.

[@brianjosephestanislao3511]

Hi Mark, how often can you paint wet on dry on the same canvas without ruining your painting?

[@keylupveintisiete7552]

Brian Estanislao pretty much forever

[@keci57]

Tnx, Master.

[@markhousel2712]

Wish you were my teacher in art school

[@pinkypooky5779]

What kind of oil do you use when you wiped over canvas

[@siddheshdas7442]

can I get Geneva oil colour in india

[@starnet36]

I'm a beginner, just watching videos first before actually start painting. Question: Mark uses the term "Values" a lot when talking about a painting. Is that the same thing as color(s)?

[@rvageorgia]

Value refers to the light or darkness degree of the color.Hue is the color.Chroma is the saturation of color.Look it up,value,hue,chroma.

[@billchaney2220]

How long should your first layer dry before adding second layer?

[@JasonReedphotography]

I really like your reference to talking about the cameras dynamic range. Even great cameras are limited to 10 stops of dynamic range, where the human eye can see almost 64 individual stops of light in a single scene. I.e the black in the photograph will blow out "Or consume the light" roughly 54 stops sooner than it will of the human eye. Which results in way less detail.

[@HBountario]

Im wonder and would like to ask you,should we wait the the first layer the lean one really dry before the fatter one?thank you for your reply.

[@maldoori238]

Hi Mark I like your method very much . Please can you let me know why your studio is covered in black cloth?

[@ataxicainc]

He covers his studio in black cloth so that it doesn't reflect any light into his still life. It's pretty ingenious, and I would recommend you try it out, plain black cloth or sheets work great!

Same in Canada. You can by tickets to win a house for children hospital. I don't know why it will be different in US.

[@1974gladiateur]

Mark we need a new video please. Thanks.

[@clownpocket]

I saw that the video was posted, and deleted, I thought is just needed editing or something. I didn't know you had averted a felony.😧 Glad to see you won't be in a federal penitentiary, we need you on this side of the steel gates!👍 Who knew? Wow! 😂

[@patrickwelch3274]

Shocks me every time I listen to him. Very very very few can talk and do. I know if I could paint like him ( or his future painting) I’d tell you all to leave me alone to paint. He could be that good. He has better than Sargent potential.

Eres un gran maestro, pero no hablo inglés por favor deja subtítulos en español gracias

[@lazynut81]

..and whatever..Thanks!

[@101turk]

Another great video… when I buy my paint I’m buying only from him.

[@Pinko_Band]

Mark, did you look into that claim about it being a federal crime? That just doesn't sound right, but you never know these days. Oh well, great vid as always.

[@PHeMoX]

Short answer; yes, most likely it was a federal crime the way it worked previously (ie. it required a purchase for people to enter and the organisation wasn't non-profit). If you're interested in figuring it out, I'd look here: www.texasattorneygeneral.gov/alerts/alerts_view_alpha.php?id=58&type=1 I wasn't the one who warned, but I'm fairly sure it was correct. Apparently a free giveaway like the one he has it turned into now is allowed.

[@gargost]

He was not holding a raffle. People were asked to purchase a product, and then they would be entered into a drawing to get another product; in this case, a painting.

[@Pinko_Band]

Estefan Gargost Just seems weird that would be a federal crime...

[@PHeMoX]

Estefan Gargost Oh I understand what you mean. From a linguistic perspective I actually agree. But apparently this falls under gambling laws regardless. Giveaway / raffle / lottery / sweepstakes / etc. according to the law all mean basically the same thing and more or less should abide the same laws (non-profit, gross should go to charity, no paid promotion or indirect promotion for a product, no purchase for entry, etc.). sarafhawkins.com/blog-law-is-your-giveaway-legal/ She actually gives a direct answer to selling a product as your 'entry fee' for a giveaway: sarafhawkins.com/blog-law-is-your-giveaway-legal/#comment-5644

[@PHeMoX]

John Thompson Well, we all do understand he had no ill intentions whatsoever. But apparently you aren't allowed to promote a product that way by law. You can do it by making entry free though.

[@jayhyland2815]

Mark, I know you know it's called a mahl......stick....but you call it a stick?? ?

[@willthomsen7569]

lol accidentally committing a federal crime now that’s badass

[@silvanabaralha8665]

It isn´t a crime because there is no victim. Things just don´t become "crimes" because somebody writes that down on a piece of paper, nor do they stop being crimes for that very same reason.

[@2ASteph]

Lol that color checker BS. That’s just too much. Too many rules. Paint how you want to paint. It’s supposed to be fun and relaxing

[@jaym3064]

It’s intended to be a temporary teaching tool. Mark’s teaching is specific to the realism genre. It isn’t about abstract art, which in that case you would be correct.

[@theaussienurseflipper.8113]

Wow 7 year too late for me lol

[@mrkingid]

Anyone else see the demon face in the lower right of the painted jar? :D
