I love the way you teach and demonstrate the basics of underpainting/blocking. I see that you take time to explain in detail and it becomes very clear how and what is happening on the painting surface/ canvas. I have seen many tutorial videos on painting on youtube. But in many videos it appears that the teacher has not taken time to explain the details and it appears more of a show of that person's skill (kind of magic show) and we student are left wondering when we would reach that magical skill level. But in your video, I must agree, that you explain patiently and in detail. I hope I had teacher like you (in person training). Thank you very much for your videos like us learning remotely by watching on KZbin. Looking forward to more such videos. God bless.

Hi Dianne. This was enormously helpful. No one has ever explained the block in to me before and the fact that it has to do with placement. (I also appreciate your use of music analogies such as composition in this case). Would you consider doing a quick tip of the very next step here? In other words, the intermediary step before details? What helps me most is to hear your thought process spoken aloud. Many thanks.

You described the exact problem I've been having...not only in painting, but also drawing. I tend to get hung up on details before I see the larger picture and end up with a composition that lacks balance and focus. So I probably need practice blocking in and get used to seeing the whole composition. I need to squint more and stop being so fussy on the small bits. Thank you Dianne!

I may be wrong, but speaking only for myself, I have never seen so much teaching in the 24 minutes and the additional wealth of informative teaching answering the questions in the comments. From my meager living, I would gladly give $25 if there was a handy way to do it with PayPal...I'd do it this minute. This "BLOCK" of information is incredibly valuable in the teaching to see and do. I wonder if you would or could have a one hour....teaching and people could pay $25. You have almost 500 likes for this one in this few days. I wonder if 100 of then (us) would pay the 25...$2,500 that one day. I am such an idea person... such a dreamer. I will be studying this QT and all the answers in the comment section a lot before I start my next painting.

Thanks for another great video. I agree with you when you said 'It`s better not to put all the details in because it`s better to leave a bit of mystery for the viewer". I personally am not too keen on paintings that look like photographs it seems that paintings without all the detail have a charm about them and the viewers brain makes up for the lost detail. Maybe I am wrong but that is how I see it.
@IntheStudioArtInstruction Жыл бұрын
You're not wrong at all, Kevin. One of the roles of art is to keep the viewer's engagement. If the artist - whether painter, poet, etc - says everything completely, the work becomes more like a sermon than an engaging work of art.

Please allow me to paraphrase a little story from the life of Martin Luther, the significance will be revealed in the end. He had come to a point where he exclaimed, “FINALLY, I see and FEEL the truth of God’s grace!” His colleague, almost with alarm, said, “This can’t be true! You have already written volumes about God’s grace and the book of Romans!” Martin said, “Yes, but this time it’s so much deeper!” This is how I feel about your teaching, Artist/art teacher Dianne Mize. I’ve watched you for quite a long time now, but the teaching goes into each new and deeper level of comprehension of the concept. Makes me thankful for the WAY you teach (and preach...lol) that. I have watched this 3 times now and feel a very deep level of foundation for the next picture I have begun to plan. Makes me feel like I had been building on sand No wonder I had felt the edifice shake as I moved along. Now more and more I feel a solid foundation.

I have to say you are not only an excellent teacher, but wise. Your experience shows through as you explain use of the medium. It's one thing to be smart, another to have wisdom. I like you no fluff presentation style without the dramatic bells and whistles of many videos. I may have commented earlier about the alla prima approach. I attempted it but found myself lost in the goop. It may not be for me. I have to learn patience with this medium. In watercolor I have immediate satisfaction. I am used to the pace. The sprint vs the stroll is my issue. Do you have any videos about starting with the medium and ways to "deal" with it? Methods and Materials in a way? Thx.
@IntheStudioArtInstruction4 жыл бұрын
First, thank you Paul for your comments. Your question is one I've not received before, but certainly merits addressing. I will put it on our filming schedule. Since we film these several weeks in advance, look for it in mid-to-late September. But for the moment: For every medium, there is a learning curve of technical skills, just like in any other field. Watercolor behaves totally different from oils, for example. The priority for each painting medium should be to first learn technical control of materials and tools and that is too often omitted by "instructors". About alla prima vs. the sustained approach, the important thing is that you use the approach that works best for you.

Dianne, again you have imparted to all us viewers vital information in a clear, concise way. I hope you don't mind my asking two short but technical questions. Firstly: I assume you sprayed the canvas or canvas page first with your little bottle? I have been using a formula of half OMS and half linseed oil. I don't have poppyseed oil but I do have walnut oil. Will that do? Secondly, the single aperture in my spritzer gets clogged. Does your have more than one hole and does it matter? Thanks again for all your helpful tips and for clarifying things for us in the Comments section.

My spritzer gets all clogged up too and have wondered how to remedy that situation...
@IntheStudioArtInstruction4 жыл бұрын
First, yes, walnut oil will work. It's important though to be sure to wipe down the canvas so that it is barely damp. To prevent clogging, get those little spritz bottles that have caps and keep the bottle capped between uses. Also, use an adsorbent tissue or paper towel to thoroughly wipe the nozzle before capping.
@chayita74 жыл бұрын
@@IntheStudioArtInstruction So, one hole is enough? I hope you'll have the time to answer my other question re continuing the block-in until the painting is finished and/or how to re-wet the block-in after the canvas is completely dry. (Where I live it can dry overnight.) Many thanks.

Dianne, thank you for another amazing lesson. I usually do the block in focusing more on the values and not so much on the colors, I'm not sure if this is the best way to proceed. But what I was thinking is if you dilute your paint with solvents in the block in stage, or of the paint is used without any mediums. I usually do the block in somewhat diluted, but I've noticed that when painting Alla prima, this sometimes makes the second layer harder to adhere to the canvas without making a mess.

Carol, I don't use any medium past the drawing/placement stage (unless I need a passage to dry quickly, then I use only Liquin). I find it works best to control the thickness of the paint with the brush rather than to thin it with medium.
