Wow ,Love Turner and that was so great,Thankyou!!

[@newenglandlight8724]

Wonderful video. Rembrandt and Turner happen to be my two favorite artists.

[@lauralaladarling3775]

Magnificent! Thank you, thank you. Xxx❤❤❤

[@lilianaklass8247]

Jill the more I watch your videos and listen to your lectures the more I learn and appreciate the work of artists. With you I’m learning to see. Thank you! Please keep them coming

[@JillPoyerdFineArt]

Thank you, Liliana...so good to hear

[@j.louisv.123]

A good artist knows when to let go of the technical process of painting and let the pure talent and instinct do it's thing; . In time knowing instinctively when to let each one simply do it's thing; going back and forth with unnoticed ease and natural procession.

[@owenmccarthy8023]

Brilliant looking forward to the next episode

[@Piboon11]

Thank you very much, Jill, for this marvelous video. I don't paint, I know nothing about painting techniques, but enjoy the sophistication of beautiful paintings and, also, of this video. Not only is this episode very educational and enjoyable, but it is really neatly-made, ... so, very much appreciated. May your kindness bring you lots of love and happiness!

[@JillPoyerdFineArt]

Thank you so much, Beautiful World. That's so appreciated!

[@Figueiredoartconservation]

The information about Turner is just wonderful and perfect, Thank you

[@JiveDadson]

I just had cataract surgery. The result reinforces my suspicion that Turner had cataracts or some other vision problem.

[@MossyMozart]

@@JiveDadson - He actually could paint well in a more conventional manner, too. But that doesn't mean that he, or any other artist, did not develop vision problems over time. Some critics think that El Greco had astigmatism and that would account for his elongated figures. (However, that is not a universal belief.)

[@myndismithers7801]

Two of my favorite artists. Wonderful commentary on their processes.

[@leandronicolas8848]

I love love this. Gonna rewatch parts one and two while waiting for part three!

[@aaronpickens6831]

Excellent video! One additional point on the difference between a wash and a glaze. A wash is typically a transparent pass of color that has been thinned down by solvent, whereas, a glaze/scumble is always created using a medium such as linseed oil. Therefore, the drying rate between the two applications is inherently different, which dictates how they are used in the layering/development of the painting.

[@NeonsStyleHD]

Always a good day when you release a new video! So much inspiration! Thank you! :)

[@4kart439]

If the dotting method and outlining method are the means to form the points and lines of oil painting, then painting is the main method to form the big relationship of oil painting. The methods of painting include flat, thick and thin painting. Flat painting is the main method for painting large color blocks, and even flat painting is also a common technique for decorative oil painting. Thick painting is the main feature of oil painting that distinguishes it from other types of painting, making the paint thicker and leaving obvious brush strokes to form texture. Scraping a very thick layer of paint onto the canvas with a knife is called pile painting. Thin painting is a thin application of color that is diluted to produce a transparent or translucent effect. Scattered painting is flexible and vivid.

[@FirstLast-iv2tc]

Yay! So happy to see another video! This is one of my very favorite art channels. Your voice is so wonderfully soothing and the content and music is perfection.

Jill! You are simply amazing. What you are doing is so needed in this world! Thank you infinitely!

[@JillPoyerdFineArt]

What a wonderful comment, Cedric. Thank you for that. It really means a lot.

[@CedricFangeat]

@@JillPoyerdFineArt I really wish you were reactivating your Twitter account. With the expansion of NFTs people lose track of what art is and I am preaching for the history of art to be a part of the new approach to art that modern times offer. Unfortunately, there is a lack of culture, and what you do does fill this gap. Twitter is the place where NFT happens. Believe me that if you were there I'd shout your name aloud in the community! But if you don't I'd enjoy your video selfishly and with joy :)

[@LyubomirIko]

Great series, awesome work!

[@FilmArtistsOfAmerica]

I did the math on how much art you would have to produce to end up with 23,000 works that can be referenced. He began painting around age 15 and died at age 76, you would have to have produced 377 works of art (paintings or drawings) per year to end up with that number. My goodness. That means he would have to have averaged about one work of art per day plus some, for 61 years.

[@JillPoyerdFineArt]

It really is amazing, isn't it? Thanks for that breakdown....it makes it even more impactful!

[@MossyMozart]

I am lucky to live near the Metropolitan Museum of Art (in NYC), so I have been there a number of times. I have seen paintings by artists mentioned in this series, including Caravaggio, Rembrandt, Sargent, Vermeer, and others, including the great Velazquez. ("Juan de Pareja" is stunning and so far is my very mostest favorite painting. ^_^ ) But I long to one day set eyes on works by Turner. If the real thing is anything like the photographs of his works, it would also be a stunning, exciting experience. This is a lovely series by @Jill Poyerd Fine Art and very informative. I love learning.

[@chauvinart]

I love the works of the academic painters so I am especially eager to learn what you uncover about the painting process for William Bouguereau in part 3. There are a couple of things you mentioned in this video that I found really surprising. The first is what you said about the artists varnishing their paintings at the exhibition space and even doing touch-up work there. From what I understand about best practices for oil, I thought it was best to wait six months before applying the varnish. This allows the oil layers to cure before being locked in with the varnish. If they were touching up at the gallery, where they doing that above a previously applied varnish layer? The second thing I was wondering about "varnishing day" was what the experience must have been like for the viewers of the paintings (not to mention the artists) when you have all these large canvasses lining the walls emitting solvent vapors into the air. It must have been dizzying! I'm an acrylic artist myself, so the only time I use a solvent is when I apply varnish as a very last step. The panels I paint on are relatively small and my studio space large but it still takes several days for the smell of the fumes to fully dissipate. You produce wonderfully instructive videos. Keep up the great work!

[@JillPoyerdFineArt]

Yes, I was initially puzzled by the same thing, but some artists definitely touched them up at that point. They must not have varnished them for the show? And I agree - I can't see painting over a prior layer of varnish. I did read that some experts wonder if Turner used water media for some touch ups, which could allow for varnish when dry, but I can't see it adhering to the oil surface. And that doesn't explain his nearly completing a painting just prior. So...I'm back to assuming those artists didn't varnish. Great point about the fumes! I didn't think of that, but yes that must have been horrible - especially the products they used back then.

[@airbrushken5339]

I find the idea of glazing by the masters so odd. I have instructed artists to us air bushes for over 50 years, both in the USA and Australia, using many techniques including scratching back the base glaze and then adding more colour on top and repeating the process in creating hair ... in water colours I could add extra colour to a seascape; on the clouds or water with the airbrush and not have to worry about the "Paint brush wetting the surface and lifting OFF colour. It also allowed me to us as an example; a Payne's grey glaze over some of the mountains in a landscape and knock them back a little from the front. I learned this from a teacher in the 60's who mixed Payne's grey to his colours with the background getting the most and decreasing the amounts in the mix coming forward.... Outside the box??? I do love your videos...

[@JillPoyerdFineArt]

That is, perhaps, an element of painting most people don't consider. Thanks for mentioning it. Very interesting.

Plumbonacrite is not something rembrandt added, it's a mineral that formed in lead paint. Who makes Pb74 cobalt blue dark pigment? If you know, let me know.

[@JillPoyerdFineArt]

According to scientists, he did. Here are some links for you: pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/30614602/ cen.acs.org/analytical-chemistry/art-artifacts/Science-reveals-Rembrandts-special-paint/97/i2 www.smithsonianmag.com/smart-news/rembrandt-used-secret-ingredient-his-signature-technique-180971292/ As for the cobalt dark, Blockx makes one: www.dickblick.com/items/blockx-artists-watercolor-cobalt-blue-dark-15-ml-tube/ www.dickblick.com/items/blockx-artist-oil-color-cobalt-blue-dark-200-ml-tube/

[@etienne7774]

@@JillPoyerdFineArt Plumbonacrite is only stable in alkaline (basic) environments. Under the acid production conditions of lead white, the mineral rapidly transforms into (hydro)cerussite. In contrast, a stable, highly basic lead mineral is litharge (PbO). Arguing that PbO was sometimes used as a binding additive at the time, the authors proposed that Rembrandt could have added PbO in the binder for his impasto. This would explain the composition of the white pigments. In a medium made alkaline by the litharge binder, lead carbonates would back-transform to plumbonacrite. You can buy litharge from an art store. They write articles to make it seem that that was Rembrands missing ingredient for creating great art. But that is not the case. Van Gogh used Minnium, read lead in his oil painting that's busy transforming his wheat stack from red to white. What we are dealing with here is simply different mineral compounds that transforms over time in different conditions, but that has nothing to do with creating great art. "www.science20.com/profile/news_staff So here plumbonacrite is responible for destroying a painting. Rembrandt also used wheat in his paintings, but no one will say that was the missing link to creating great art. In my opinion, wheat, marble dust, white lead paint, PbO [litharge] all contributes to transparency, combined with building up a painting in layers. He painted the spirit of a thing using painterly effects, same with Turner. That is what makes great art. Im looking for Cobalt blue deep Pb74 pigment manufacturer. I know there are many paint manufacturers but they have to get their pigment from somewhere. Thank you
