Painting a Realistic Tiger | Time lapse

[@marciahorton2203]

You are a very rare breed! Over the years that I have followed you on You Tube I have saw where people ask you if you could demonstrate painting from your imagination but they don't realize that how you paint requires so much technical skill and patience, of which most people do not possess or would want to. Here you have undertaken a subject that you normally do not paint but it shows that you have put in the work of studying how every detail must have your attention to it. When I look at a hundred of thumbnail paintings on a page of "realistic landscapes" it takes me but a second to spot out your work because it is not only heads above the rest it is so much greater than that. Such a pleasure to watch you paint and to see your subject literally come to life in just mere minutes watching your videos. Thank you so much for sharing these with us.

[@MichaelJamesSmith]

Thanks for the kind words

Гениальная живопись!

Is there an official video account of yours on the Chinese Xiaohongshu? I think it is a pirated version. ​Xiaohongshu account number: 4362171761. This video account provides paid teaching in your name.@@MichaelJamesSmith

[@bagelsgaming6043]

I ain’t readin all that

[@bagelsgaming6043]

But yeah good painting😊

[@BJH-fm1pf]

The water splash looks perfect. Great job!

[@EgoundderRest]

Das ist wie hochauflösende Fotografie mit dem Pinsel!! Absolut außergewöhnlich, wie Sie mit ganzer Leidenschaft, ruhiger Hand und Künstlerpinsel Werke erschaffen, die selbst renommierte Fotografen mit professionellem Equipment nicht besser erzielen könnten. Weltklasse!

[@parshakamarsh]

Absolutely stunning, you've really caught the power and grace of that majestic animal

[@MichaelJamesSmith]

Thank you very much!

[@MarkRosengarten]

I cannot get my hands to have the level of control you have with liner and round brushes. I've had to be satisfied with approximation. Which hurts, knowing what is possible. Just gorgeous work here.

[@wingsclippedwolf]

This is a cool study of perception itself. When watching from the beginning, it's clearly layers of illusions. The mind builds these sections of shades and colors into the image of a tiger.

[@eyeoftheosprey6678]

I would consider it a major life accomplishment to have your painting skill!

[@MichaelJamesSmith]

Thanks!

[@CindyBroadhead-x2q]

This is truly fantastic. I was considering painting wildlife and now you've help me to push through. Thank you!

[@MichaelJamesSmith]

Glad I could help!

[@acitizen6809]

Awesome.Realistic.

[@elliottcooper6205]

Imagine how beautiful it would be if every artist had and put this much skill and effort into all their art. Modern art is a joke and this actual skill, talent, and passion tempered with vision, love, and foresight. Keep producing this great stuff. One day, very soon, people will realize that modern art is worthless but art like this is amazing.

[@AyushRaj-n5h]

Sir your art seems like the tiger being photographed 😊❤❤🙏🙏.

[@MichaelJamesSmith]

[@helenkochetova772]

Какая потрясающая работа! Сила, грация, мощь!!! Удовольствие следить за каждым движением кисти.

[@bezsifri]

[@theringman25]

Nice painting!

Underrated video...❤❤❤❤...just found ur channel ...love it so much..

[@EnigmaticAnomaly]

That is incredible! I'd love to have that kind of talent. Here I am killing myself with a colored pencil lighthouse scene. I should have gotten into paints when I was younger.

[@MichaelJamesSmith]

It’s never too late!

[@cherylnewman4383]

I love painting pets, but I I don't think there is any way I could learn to paint this good. This is WOW!

[@MichaelJamesSmith]

Thank you so much 😀

[@hoeungsokoun1940]

Beautiful painting

[@jonatanmoral671]

This goes beyond realism. How many lives with a brush 24h a day in my hand would I need to get there? This is a joke from another galaxy. Man, take good care of your eyes. All my recognition and commendation.

[@insignificantartist1714]

I... This is... just *beyond* words!!!

[@thomasoneill5877]

Incredible, it looks better than a photograph!

[@forked-lightning]

Homies nose and eyes go in different directions. On the real though, amazing work and technical ability.

[@Youxiao-j8t]

You’re my favorite artist ❤😂

[@cptairwolf]

Incredible work. If you sold 4k HDR versions of these paintings that didn't include the brush or your hand they'd make amazing love paintings for people to put in their homes.

[@Hindu_lily]

Wow 😍 amazing👍😍

[@MichaelJamesSmith]

Thanks 🤗

[@GMGH3]

Simplemente increíble 👍 felicidades bro

[@HeavenBound51]

I used to do these kind of paintings

This painting made me flip my pillow in the astral realm 👍

[@edmancuso]

Amazing! Thank you for sharing!

[@mossofthemoon]

The fur texture on the tiger's face. Really looks like something you could touch

[@ranya4875]

Wow, keep going your artist ❤❤❤

[@wildlifeandnaturewithjoean7203]

that was so inspirational and educational!

[@shahnazpmoosa3638]

Amazing piece of art!!!🎉

[@andy_14]

Just perfect!

[@jaclynmwvasquez]

Excellent‼️Using Epic🎵to personify a crowning 🐯 whose facial expression was intensely captured, his wet fur currented, the water launching 💦 under his movement. The 🤌wielding the brushes, steady on.

[@MichaelJamesSmith]

Thank you so much 😀

[@natanaeljuniorluizfernande4835]

Amado vc é uma benção de Deus, parabéns pelo belo trabalho ❤

[@rajibartist3063]

brilliant

[@SparklingDiva1111]

Gorgeous, and yet... the thing almost everyone gets wrong when painting animals: the nose. The tiger's head isn't facing us but the nose section is, incl. the end with nostrils. As result the middle of upper lip and the upper lip line aren't correct either...

[@fishysnail]

woah

[@leonardoholanda2250]

Simplesmente SENSACIONAL 👏👏👏

[@yuriiswimmer1497]

Excellent!!!! You're super!!!

Wow bro realmente me sorprende tu delicadeza al pintar los pequeños detalles como el pelo I don't know which material did you use but whatever the material is, it is beautiful. 👌💖

[@dougg1075]

Crazy cool

[@VincentVanGoghArtist]
