I'm nearly 80 Dianne, and started painting only a few years ago, and never thought I would still be able to learn so much at my age. Every lesson you teach us is só to the point and gives so much insight. Can't thank you enough for your selflessness to let us profit from your talent in painting as well in teaching.

I am 81 yrs old and as the person below expressed, I started painting only recently. I am taking a Drawing II class but the teacher is just giving assignments and expecting us to figure it out rather than teaching us HOW to do it. I have been very discouraged because it is an online class and I cannot ask questions to clarify if I am understanding the assignments and am on the right track. I love and appreciate your precise instructions of complicated and difficult techniques. Right now we are being asked to draw drapery and wrinkled pillows both plain and with patterns. I had no idea how to go about this until I saw your video about how to paint gradations and values. Thank you so much...after watching this I think that I have a better understanding of how to go about this process. Thank you so much!

I've watched a few of your quick tips and I love them.... you break down big concepts into digestible portions and it helps to de-mystify the whole process of making "art"! I hadn't watched this quick tip because I haven't had to paint any folds in fabric because I'd started painting landscapes. The last couple of weeks I've been making smaller paintings of my favourite flowers, irises, and guess what? Many of them, especially the bearded varieties, have edges on the petals that look like..... folds in fabric! And I've been finding them difficult.... Now, thanks to you, I have a more conscious way to approach them.... So, again, thanks very much for all your quick tips, but this one has come at a most opportune time!!! :)

Hello I'm a forensic artist at a Sheriff's Department but I have been learning art since I was a child . I have recently found your channel and let me tell you ma'am you are amazing! I started when I was about 8 years old with my paints ,canvas , and brushes and was set up every Saturday morning at 8 o'clock A.M. to paint with Bob Ross and did so for years so all I can paint is landscapes. I draw very well but only in graphite and charcoal. I really enjoy the tutorials you allow us to watch for free and now I have more of an understanding of value in color and in maybe a more refined way of mixing color thank you so very much for all you do.

Great video! I've been painting for a long time but always have issues with painting folds in clothing. At the moment I am working on a portrait of Vincent Van Gogh writing a letter at a desk/table. He's wearing a white shirt that is a bit loose and is collarless. I'm having a hard time trying to get the front of the shirt painted so it has some creases/folds. The sleeves are okay so far but the front is not. I'm retired so there's no hurry with this painting and in fact, I just got back to it after two and a half years. I was doing other paintings. The gradation lesson is really good and I know about gradation but you have done a great job of explaining it. :D

Hello Dianne, Thank you for sharing your great teaching methods on painting it is so helpful, really appreciate the effort you put into doing these tutorials. I am painting a portrait of a cat sitting on a blanket with folds, & haven’t found it easy to get the real effect of the folds, am wondering if this method works for acrylic paints? not sure whether you are painting with oils in this demonstration, must admit I haven’t tried giving it a go yet, but will do so, the acrylics dry very quickly making it difficult to criss cross with the brush. Thanking you once again. Cheers. Sylvia

Sylvia, there is no difference in how the color and value behave in the pigments used to make both acrylic and oils. Because of the nature of the media, some acrylic might dry a bit darker, but otherwise, visual principles work the same.

I don't have any tips directly addressing military camouflage, but like any subject for painting, you determine what the light source is doing, then look at the subject in terms of what's in shadow and what's being lit by the light source. Within both areas, you determine the hue's and their degree of saturation as well as their values.

I hope you are working from these in the real rather than as photos. Begin by doing value drawings of them, paying attention to value differences between what's in shadow and what's not in shadow. Once you master the value translations in drawing, All you'll need to do is to translate the color variations according to where they appear in the value areas.

I like to paint wet on wet because i avoid the issue of the 4 rules (fat over lean etc. ) So for that in my medium i use Poppy oil purified where it allows me to paint in 1 session and it gives me time to adjust the value and color and it gives me a even finish on the while painting doing in one session. But sometimes happens where i need to change the color but i cant use the poppy medium because on a 2nd layer the paint film becomes dull. My question is: On thoses ocasions Can i use liquin for the 2nd layer? Or once i applied poppy oil as a medium i have to still use Poppy only? The thing is that i tried use liquin for the 2nd and up layers and the paint film sticks with the 1st one and it gives a good even finish and it bonds Well. I only apply liquin once the canvas is totally dry. But since its a fast drying medium i dont know if should proceed like that But i dont find a good anwser for this situation otherwise. Thank you!

For alla prima painting where the painting is done in a single session, you need no medium at all if you are using artist or professional grade paint. Poppy oil is a very slow drying oil and therefore any layer that has poppy oil in it should not be painted on top of with paint containing Liquin. Here's why: oil paint does not evaporate, but oxidizes. Therefore the top will always oxidize first, causing the surface to seem to be dry, whereas it is still pliable underneath that layer. If you add a fast drying layer on top of that, you create an instability which will cause the stickiness you refer to, but also can cause the paint to crack in the future. If you must use a painting medium (which I don't subscribe to), then it's important that you use the same medium all the way through.

Thanks for another great tip. This is a little out of let field, but how would one go about teaching some good drawing concepts to a child. I see lots of videos on how to draw specific things but nothing to teach a child about the elements of art. I have a 6 year old grandson who is very interested in drawing. So I've started doing work sheets for him to get better at his line work. I hope to move on to the other elements of art like shape and form etc. and wonder if I'm doing the correct thing. Thank you Diane. I so appreciate all your wonderful videos.

Bless you, Karen, for what you are doing. There are a lot of art activities on line for kids his age, but too many are built more on imitation than skill building and exploration. I like the Waldorf approach for young kids, but I also think their learning how to take care of their supplies as well as how to use their eyes to explore the visual world is important. I hesitate to give too much advice beyond that, but one thing I would say and that is pay attention to what excites him and build on that. Find ways to praise him while at the same time asking questions that will stimulate him to explore options.

@@IntheStudioArtInstruction Thank you for the good advice Dianne. I'm going to research the Waldorf methods and see if that is something his parents might like to invest in. Since they live in Europe my lessons are sent via email and live on FaceTime. I'm not the greatest teacher but I try! Thanks again. :-)
