PAINT YOUR PET PARTY from your own photo tutorial | TheArtSherpa

[@juliann911]

what am i actually doing here? i got finals tomorrow and i neither have a pet nor any skills in drawing but still i'm halfway through. what am i doing with my life

[@TheArtSherpa]

Hopefully taking a moment to creatively reset. Good luck with your finals.

[@Alckert]

hahahahaha omg same here

[@joanmoschella7561]

Thank you so much for this tutorial.... I always wanted a painting of my pet and could not afford to have it done....NOW I painted my own.....much love to you & John for this gift.

[@mamchente]

Cinnamon- it is my ABSOLUTE DREAM to just hang out with you and your husband while learning how to paint better in my own house. I am working so hard to make that dream possible. Just know, I am coming for you! You keep my creative hope alive and always inspire me to paint more and more!

[@lorettabowman8599]

I always come back to you. I love this video. I get it! I’m painting two orange cats. I have one cat almost finished and that is thanks to your fur video! Now I find this video! My husband will go golfing tomorrow and I will paint for hours while he is gone! He plays golf for about 6 hours but when he comes home, I usually say, why are you home so soon? When I paint, time flies and sometimes I forget to eat! My husband loves my hobby! Thank you for making painting fun !

[@TheArtSherpa]

Thank you for your kind words, Loretta ! I'm happy to hear that you are having so much fun 🎨✨💗💚

[@carriemu7220]

I just used the principles of this video to paint my bunny. Holy cow, I didn't know I could do that! I can't stop looking at it. I hope to not be so late to the party and catch a live paint along this week. Thank you team Art Sherpa! 💖

[@siasd829]

I liked you a lot before, but your wish for all animals to be treated kindly and have forever homes sealed the deal! Thank you for all your positivity! Following your lead I will from this day forward write my intentions and wishes on my canvases... Stay safe!

[@beckysirmans6864]

Painting a friends dog for her birthday as a surprise. Turning out pretty good so far. Thanks for this tutorial. I would never have went about it the right way without it.

[@cindychambers1588]

I was blessed to be here LIVE for this event...I didn't realize my stream was a couple of minutes delayed, so apologize to John for me for shouting a question out to him (that had already been answered) in all CAPS. This is a very BEAUTIFUL painting... loved the lesson very much.. THANK YOU!

[@febeleven]

Love the eyes, they make the portrait pop!

[@TheArtSherpa]

i totally agree!

[@beverlymeaker7566]

This video was so wonderful. I lost my cat, Felix, a couple of years ago. We raised him from a six-week old kitten, so when he died many years later it was devastating. This lesson has enabled me to paint a picture of Felix, so he will always be with us.

[@sylviapatton192]

I have just discovered you for the first time,,and laying here on the couch with a stomach virus,, I have been watching your videos,,and you made me giggle this time,,with your confused look!!! Love your tutorials,,,I have been trying to paint and wishing I was an artist for years, Hope I can learn from you. Thanks for your humor!

[@mollyannin]

My favorite part of your Chanel is going back for replays. Today you mentioned a drawing that you are holding, and you said “so if you are watching this 5 years from now you missed out.” I looked, it’s 5 years later 🤣🤣🤣.

[@TheArtSherpa]

Love that!🌹

[@ninogrieco8777]

Just beautiful!!! What a wonderful people you are Cinnamon...God bless your family . This is my wish for you. Please write it in the next painting .

[@terrisousa3382]

I love your videos! I would love to have your reference photo in the bottom corner, so we can see how you are interpreting the photo! Thanks for all your wonderful instruction--both of you!

[@TheArtSherpa]

Great idea

[@mallorydykes6483]

I thought so too lol I actually took a screen shot with another phone to look at the same time lol

[@debbievinsant4610]

Oh this is so similar to my doggie Valentine I’m not to the 3 hoot skill yet but I think if I take my time and pause your video I will attempt this! Thank you so much my doggie is quite old so this would be a treasure for me!! White is not really white is the biggest issue for me when painting think you for showing me all the true colors!!!!! I just love you so much!

[@julesseaton847]

Sherpa you are so sweet, fun and everything positive! You saved me money from going to a class to learn to paint my yorkie ❤️❤️❤️

[@gailrees7703]

this is the third time I've watched this video, I am about to paint an Australian Shepherd for a friend, your information is so valuable, thank you

[@brittneydunbar5247]

Love this painting 🖼! 🐶 🎉 🎈 🎊

[@saundrastewart2796]

Amazing! I faithfully watch all of your videos, and can't wait for new ones....Have stopped painting as I have lots of yard work, but will start again eventually...You have so many encouraging things to say. Thank you!

[@denisericard9884]

I really enjoyed this tutorial , I've been wanting to paint my passed away big baby , my mastif dog Butch , he passed away 2 yrs ago , and I miss that dog so much , I have his picture on my computer desk , but now I will paint him and put him on my wall . Thanks to your tutorial , I can now do it , knowing how to do all the underpainting and all , Thanks so much Cinnamon :)

[@kayfessler7829]

Ive gone to a Paint Your Pet class ... and your teachings make is so much more

[@TheArtSherpa]

That is so awesome thank you for sharing

[@susanzolton6730]

Working on tabletop was a great call. Saw everything in detail!

[@kay.la513]

I haven't painted in years. art school drop out here. recently decided to get back into it... I am so out of practice! your videos are helping me immensely. Subscribed and liked! thanks for the help :) way more enlightening than any professor l had in my short one year stint at university. granted they WERE student teachers :)

[@BerniceBowling]

I was able to paint a dog with this video and it looks a lot better than the first one that I ever did. Thank you so much

[@marynguyen3532]

I'm so glad I found this channel

[@gailgassen8670]

Watched your great video on the cat & bird, it was delightful! You all had so much fun & I love the way you all laughed! So catching I loved laughing with you 3..

[@kcpurves1]

Again, you amaze me. Love both of you. It's midnight here and when I have trouble sleeping I always watch your videos. Can't wait to return home to Kelowna, B.C. and paint my grand pets. I have painted them in pastels but really want to try acrylics. You both have blessed me tonight more than I can say. 💖

[@TheArtSherpa]

Thank you so much and hope you love painting your pets

[@evapmama-blue77]

missed the live show... watched the fur..so glad you covered wrinkles, want to try my friends beautiful English bulldog "Mabel". cant wait to try, but it will take a while for sure to paint those short hairs..one little hair, two little hairs, three stroke of hairs... lol as always, thank you thank you love your shows.

[@cherylvanderlaan2734]

I have found framing canvas boards to be really easy in an open art frame. I use a staple gun then slightly pull the staple out if needed

[@TheArtSherpa]

💙💙

[@paintmyphotos7926]

I love the color you use.

[@marcipotts7397]

This has been a fascinating video lesson and so hilarious too thank you so much Cinnamon and John as always you make painting so fun and so understandable ,thank you thank you thank you !!!

[@FarmleagueSportscards]

really enjoy your videos, your variety of fun looks and the what I call prayers you call wishes for others printed in the backgrounds, also a shout to John, happy painting all

[@TheArtSherpa]

Thankyou

[@marymyers6551]

I am working on a painting of a friends dog..so this is helping me alot..thank you!

[@saundrastewart2796]

I LOVE your rain lamp!

[@junkyframes3999]

I love watching your videos. You have a great simple style. I wish we could see a copy of your original photo next to your painting during the process so we can see what you see. Thanks.

[@TheArtSherpa]

We have added that feature to our videos. So all the newer ones have it 😍

[@9mler]

I have that tree as my iPhone background! I had no idea that you painted that!

[@robynlane6408]

I just learned so much from watching this video! Thank you so much for all you do!

[@robynlane6408]

This is my favorite video of yours that I have watched so far!

[@Abbymermaidplays]

I cracked up when I saw you put the lipstick in the materials!! It really is a pretty shade 💛

[@michaelannfitzgerald8742]

Thank you! I've been wanting to paint my dog for a while now but wasn't quite sure how to go about it, thanks for this one.

[@carolhensel7712]

I love your videos. Sooo helpful! You are an inspiration and I appreciate your kind heart.

[@debbieclark5464]

My first time watching you loved it..I"ve been painting for a while now but learned some cool stuff from you.. I will be checking out your other video's Thank you.

[@TheArtSherpa]

Thank you for saying so

[@cherylsusman3711]

This is going to help me alot thank you Cinnamon for all your hard work and helping us!!! your awesome.

[@TheArtSherpa]

I'm so glad I've been out of pocket and I'm glad this helped

[@saphyrestar1982]

Your painting of Shep is amazing! I hope my pet portrait of my dog Patches comes out just as good as yours did! Thank you Cinnamon! I'll post on the page and in the group when I've finished. :)

[@pathopper8796]

Love your painting of Shep. I painted him also

[@TheArtSherpa]

Awesome. Hope you had fun. 😊😊

[@elizabethbaumler4098]

I stayed up LATE cause I loved this video. You two are so great. I hope to paint my dog who passed over the Rainbow Bridge one month ago. He was a little schnauzer. Thanks so much for doing all this about pet painting. Means a lot to me. Elizabeth, HHI, SC

[@TheArtSherpa]

thank you for sharing and hugs for your furry angel

[@portianator5678]

I haven't painted in a few years. I'm just gettin' back into it and you're makin' me want to paint even more now. xD Thanks for all your lovely videos! :)

[@TheArtSherpa]

You are so welcome

[@gailrees7703]

l love your work thank you so much for sharing your knowledge so generously

[@movedon12]

Great picture and likeness of Shep really well done 🙋🇬🇧

[@Cathfima]

Wow! Such a beautiful painting! And really great tips throughout the video. :) I recently painted my late sister's dog for her for Christmas, but I wasn't entirely happy with it so I've taken to KZbin to try to improve and yours is the first video I've watched. It certainly won't be the last! Thank you!! :D

[@karensaundersart2580]

Blick Art Supplies has many open-backed frames that fit canvas board. They are also reasonably priced!

[@brendawalsh8254]

Love this

[@gwen7005]

Loved this lesson at your table. ❤️ I’m attempt #3 trying to paint this short hair tabby kitty. It’s short haired & I’m totally lost.

[@denolftiffanie8089]

Very nice video's, thanks! I was wondering if you sometimes have the problem that after a few hours (around 2 or 3 hours), you have a difficulty to see sharp?

[@carolhensel7712]

Could I use watercolor paints to do this as well? Of course I'd have to put the lights in first. But don't know if it could be done?

[@sueb5443]

Hi Cinnamon and John, I live in Australia and I actually saw this live stream (yes, I was up in the middle of the night). It was my first live stream and I was so excited to watch and make a few comments. To top it off, I have an Aussie Shepherd so it was meant to be that I watch this video. You have inspired me to give it a go to paint my handsome boy. Thank you for such lovely videos that are chock a block full of inspirational ideas and handy tips. xo

[@TheArtSherpa]

I love how this whole thing worked out for you

[@amore4ever]

Fantastic job and a great lesson! You are always an inspiration!

[@tammieholt]

I can't wait to try this one!!!

[@robertatavola9508]

Enjoying your company once again..

[@mamaumummynumber1]

I wish you would do more on fur, Puhleese! very difficult for me.

[@alexisbell3034]

I thought that your painting was amazing you really have inspired me to paint more. I had stopped because I really don't have drawing skills and painting skills that much and now I know its not about the drawing its the journey that makes it beautiful. I wanted to know do I need the blending medium to paint. Thanks for all the time you put into your tutorials

[@TheArtSherpa]

You do not NEED it at all. It is nice to have and can slow down the drying time. I went years without ever using it

[@PatricioTrujillo.PAPI-T]

Alexis Bell for

[@mamaumummynumber1]

very good, looks so easy.

[@SusanBishop555]

This was just great!!! I have a tuxedo cat, a tabby cat and my Girlfriends white shih tzu to do. Or try. lol It will take me years to do them. :D Big Hugs

[@gailgassen8670]

Dog on it! Really I missed another live show! I was asleep I guess! Happy to watch anyway!

[@theklabalabani6860]

I love your work!

[@bahaven1896]

AWESOME. Thank you!!!! Love it

[@NewRecruitInNatsArmy]

Fantastic thanks for the instructions

[@itskiaraaa724]

thank you so much! I learnt a lot about highlights and undercoats! I painted Shep too :P

[@dianecaballero1354]

This was so fun!!! I have always wanted to take a painting class. I learned so much and love the way it turned out. Thank you for sharing your talent:)

[@lindahorton9488]

The photo to the left is myself and and my daughter with finished portraits of her Goldendoodles Lola and Smokey which we created at a paint-your--pet party long before I was so fortunate to discover The Art Sherpa. I so enjoyed doing these with my daughter that I went back and painted each of my three fur babies.

[@gailgassen8670]

This looks amazing! You've caught Sheps look so wonderful..

[@gailrees7703]

I'm loving this from south Australia

[@sonogramgrl]

Wow!! Love!! My gorgeous boy, Oreo, was a patchwork of very thick, fluffy, different colored fur. He had one blue eye, and one brown eye, just like that, also :) I didn't have him long enough in my life, at all. Another thing, my sister just started working for a segment of the government, where she will be gone for 3 months straight. This is her first time ever leaving her dog, Ruffus, for more than a week. Ruffus is the baby of the two dogs at her house. He watches out of the kitchen window as my sister backs her car out of the driveway..every time she leaves the house. When my sister left for this job, Ruffus was my first thought. I am worried that he wont understand why she's going for so long. Three months is a long time. I'm hoping she Face-times him, lol (seriously though). I would love to try to paint him for her. I just want to tell you that I love to watch you paint! Thank you so much sharing your skills with us, teaching us to do such wonderful things that I would have never imagined myself doing in a million years (though I always wanted to). I'm dying/waiting for my husband to "get around" to fixing the printer so that I can paint your Witch painting for Halloween! CAN'T WAIT!!

[@leannea4272]

hi thankyou for the great lessons ..it would have been really good if you put the picture that your copying from be net to the picture your painting so we can see exactly what you mean ..i am definatle going to give this a go you are better than my art teacher x

[@bridgetbrowning3670]

I have a blonde yorkie, her fur is all blond color. Would I use the yellow ochre as the underpainting for her?

[@andyray6396]

Z you are so good I’m trying to do that right now but I keep on messing up

[@monikaschallmoser3301]

amazing, I love it !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@mom2aprilboys]

what if you have a hard time drawing? how would you put the lines in? I ju put my dog down today and I really want to paint him as a fathers day gift for my dad

[@thirdeyereptiles1772]

Mandie Petropoulos I completely agree I need a tutorial on how to draw a dog 😫😂

[@trevorsmom5690]

Have you found any good tutorials on it? My dog passed last week and I want to do this.

[@janadathomas5338]

Good job ,,,Love It

[@pmb5005]

I can't wait to try this. I have 2 German Shepherd grandpuppies that I would love to paint. I have tried painting a bunny and was a total fail. You have explained everything so clearly that I feel more confident. I would love to see more realistic paintings of animals like this as I really need to conquer this challenge. Thanks Cinnamon. Love and peace to you, John and the fam. :) Priscilla

[@TheArtSherpa]

I am sure this is something you can totally concur

[@pmb5005]

What undertone colors would you use for a German Shepherd. Her top colors are black (so brown or blue?), beigey white (so Phthalo blue and white?) and varying shades of tan from light to dark. Also the top colors should be - Raw sienna (varying shades mixed with white?), of course black and white. Any help you can offer would be soooo appreciated. Thanks Cinnamon. Less than a year ago art was not a part of my life. Now it's almost a daily part of my life either by learning, watching tutorials or painting. I don't know how I ever lived without it and you are a HUGE part of my journey. I can't thank you enough. Priscilla

[@darmarferi]

This doggie is so cute..Thank u!! I've learned a lot from u!!

[@lauramckay8571]

thanks cinnamon, my dog Joey is part shelty pappion so this is priceless, blessings lolo

[@chrissy6168]

This is great. Want to learn to do this for charity parties. Shep is an Aussie, BTW, not a sheltie:)

[@robertbrito1459]

I have seen today (July 11, 2017) your Shep video--multi color fur dog portrait from one year ago. It was fabulous. I will try my hand at painting my white Maltese, Coco, as a gift to my wife. However, Coco's skin under her pure white fur is a pink. What undercoat should I use to make sure the pink and her white hair show up. Her belly is sort of purplish blue. I would appreciate your answer if you feel like answering. I have subscribed to your wonderful channel.

[@evatoney6493]

I have a very blonde dog not white but blonde..what would u use as an undertone for him?

[@mallorydykes6483]

Was there ever another video done on fur and the colors of underpainting for diff colors of fur?? Is there a link for it?? 😍

[@markthomas5360]

Wow, You are very talented....

[@gilligalue]

Great tutorial, as always! Thanks for mentioning about not putting too much paint down the drain! I didn't know it would clog the drain. Is there a video of how to do the sketch? Did you transfer it from a photo? Thanks!!!!

[@mallorydykes6483]

Gail A Ciesielski do you know how to dispose correctly???? I’ve been putting dirty water down sink 🤦🏻‍♀️🤦🏻‍♀️🤦🏻‍♀️

[@kristenkunkel3745]

Your awesome painter, your dog is actually an Australian Shepherd not a Shetland Sheepdog my Aussie is mistaken all the time for one. The ears and muzzle are different. Beautiful painting would love to paint Bar that way.

[@djjarman1566]

Shelties also have a tricolor one eye blue, one brown version of coat. I also had a beautiful tricolor Aussie. What makes the difference here is the delicate proportions of the sheltie compared to the larger Aussie features.

[@reneesgrooming]

I would enjoy watching more if I could see the photo while you are painting. Just a little suggestion. I'm new to this.

[@ebknight74]

Would you use a solid color (dark) when painting a tortoise shell calico cat? Thanks in advance.

[@sgarrelts1]

You mentioned in here about an art quest where you would address how to keep acrylic paint from clogging drains. Have you done that one yet? I haven't come across it if you have. And I can't tell you how many times I've referred back to this video. Thank you so much!

[@ShannasCountryCreek]

Beautiful ❣ Thank you for the lesson & inspiration. Also awareness to Saga Palms. Unfortunately my sister lost 2 dogs to the palms before we knew about them. 😭 I emailed you my attempt to paint my new baby, CupCake. 🥰😘🎨🍒🧁🐶 💞, from Texas

[@stephaniejoslin8381]

Can't wait to try my baby

[@mallorydykes6483]

So is Michael’s artist loft gesso not good? At a point in video she mentioned it and sounded iffy?? What is a brand gesso that is recommended??

[@gailgassen8670]

Awww thanks so very much! And yep "relief from pain" I guess I have painting on my mind all the time!! So funny...bless you both & sorry about the text blurp! Thinks for the wishes! Shep is a great painting❣

[@monalcreates]

Wonderful painting!!!! Love it!!

[@chernobyl3635]

I Love watching your videos. I’ve only painted 5 paintings so far. It’s so relaxing but a lot of work. Where do you find the Traceables?

[@magistra137]

So awesome, you always inspire me! I wish Shep was in my life, too. He looks like a lovable character. I definitely want to try to do some pet portraits now. How do you manage to make everything look accessible? Anytime you paint something, I feel like with some work and practice I can totally be successful, too! I really do hope that I can because there are some pet portraits that I know would be extremely meaningful to give to some people. Thank you Cinnamon and John!

[@lindielee6322]

Howdy! In the first few minutes of the, "Paint your pet" video you state that, "we've been doing these lessons and tutorials getting ready to paint your photographs from home of your pet....". Are you talking about private workshop lessons on painting pets? I'm intrigued can you tell me more?

[@jrmilner1594]

I just found your site..........have no formal training in painting but was blessed enough to take some Bob Ross classes but that was 30 years ago.........with the loss of my husband a year ago and some health issues in my life now, I want to try my hand at painting again. Want to paint my critters, mostly horses and dogs to start with but I only have oil paints and cannot afford to buy any new ones.........will your online classes work for oils to. Want to subscribe the 1st of the month if they will............thank you for your time watching you do Shep. I have Australian Shepherd dogs so the color of him is a lot like my dogs. Although mine are Red Merles. loving watching and trying to learn J.R. (judy) Colorado
