I have never been more motivated to paint an egg. Genuinely. People always say „draw from life“ and „do studies“, but how?! Thank you for this, this helps me to get an idea how to THINK and LOOK while drawing/painting. And it‘s so relaxing to watch, too. No anxiety about doing it quickly, or perfect, no pressure to improve. Just calmness and an open mind for learning. Invaluable, really.

When he started painting this egg I was like "it's just a blob of grey it'll be impossible to find color nuance on this" and as he was painting and observing I ALSO STARTED OBSERVING AND SEEING SO MANY NUANCES OF COLOR ON THE EGG. Amazing video, thank you so much for this. I'm off to take pictures of eggs ❤

Okay, first things first: you have a really understanding way of explaining things. I like your voice and your calmness and you give off the feeling that it's okay to start out with art and learning the fundamentals in a slow way. Sometimes it feels like we should all know everything, but most of the time i dont even know where to start. this video gives me a great rundown und how to study color and light from real life and your attitude i do like a lot. even from watching (will do the study later) I understood a bit and how important it is to study from real life. thank you for this video and i am glad i stumbled upon this video!

THIS by far and by no means I am exaggerating, the best Digital Coloring exercise, tutorial and method I have come across. I was getting no where in my digital color application with all these 1000s of brushes I downloaded. The limitation of only 3 brushes really pushed me to actually gain INSIGHT into color interaction and play with the medium and light which I hitherto lacked. The edges were a bit challenging after the use of Mixer brush. Kudos 10/10 😄😄👍👍

This real-time color study was so informative! I would LOVE to see many more of these real-time studies on your channel! I used to use photoshop and hate that they switched to a subscription model. A few years ago I switched over to Affinity Photo and never looked back. I've found (for me) that Affinity Photo has everything I need. (I love that once you pay a one-time fee to buy it, that's all it costs, even with updates.) I sure hope you make more of these real-time sketches! Thank you!♥

At first I thought the entire blue section was white. The more I stared at it the more blue I saw coming from the exterior lighting that coated the wood surface as well as the upper side of the egg. Saw some green in the wood on the left side that was hiding with the brown/tan tones. Thank you for posting this series!

I painted 3 eggs.. This was long overdue for me, Im still working on my basics and I want to slowly open up the chapter color. I have a bit of "analytical brain" knowledge, painted in greyscale most of the time and finally releasing this into my intuitive brain feels great. I have been overwhelmed by color but I will just do these little Studys with a timer on. Thank you!

This was so good. The explanation is great and seeing you doing it real time makes it feel more attainable. Also when you mentioned that the perspective isn't right, that the egg shape wasn't quite there and the shadow being hard. All of that were things I was seeing and this realisation that it's not a big deal is so refreshing. Always had this idea that people like you just did perfect paintings so every mistake I made I saw it as a big red flag. This video was therapeutic.

I'm so very glad you found this helpful Daniela! Yup, perfectionism is a big art killer, as well as the idea that you have to get everything right on the first try. All of us push and pull and try things, make mistakes, correct them, try again, and that's quite normal. You can paint anything, as long as you give yourself grace and permission to fail and keep trying. Keep creating my friend!

Amateurs like me always think that top-level artists like you just create amazing art in minutes. This video just taught me that regardless of your level, you need to take time to observe, understand, experiment and refine. High quality art and design cannot be achieved without a lot of time and effort. Honestly, the stuff I learn from you is just another level!

This is the most useful painting study I have found by far! And exactly what I was looking for. I used to draw by copying and color-picking. Then I gave up, and now, 10 years later I’m back to digital painting. Though it seems that I’m no good at all. So I wanted to really learn to paint by simplifying and getting the overall impression, colors and light. Because I only know how to copy details. Whenever I tried to draw or paint from a poor quality of blurry reference, I failed, because I didn’t know how to handle it. So thank you for giving the guidance. This video made it all so clear for me. I never knew it could be so easy to paint a quick sketch of such an egg. I went on trying and practicing with other things. Yeah, it’s challenging, but it’s much easier than I thought it would be.

This is hands-down THE most informative demonstration on color and lighting I have seen! Honestly, I was hoping you would do the banana so I was like "Nooooooo," when you choose the egg- BUT... this is the most intriguing egg painting demo ever! I've never been to art school so I'm learning by watching mostly KZbin videos and reading books. I've been looking for advanced in- depth studies on lighting and color and I've found it! KUDOS to you and thank you! It all makes sense now. Your diagram on lighting is fantastic! I now understand terms like ambient occlusion and specular lighting and where they are located on an object. I've seen these terms with my 3D software programs but didn't know exactly what they meant. I just focused on what I thought looked good when lighting a character. Now I know and will apply this to not only my digital work but also my works on canvas and paper.

I did it! I painted an egg! Sure, it’s not perfect and it was really weird to have to use my mouse (my drawing tablet broke recently), but it represents something I’ve genuinely never been able to do before. Thank you for this amazing tutorial/guide that helped me actually understand light and shadows!

This is such a good tutorial, I finally feel like I can understand how to actually paint digitally and that I understand how to use a real life picture to study. Unfortunately I only have a mouse at the moment so I can’t really use pressure to differentiate the different strokes of painting like you do, but the shapes and colours still work the same way.

Here I am, thinking. How do I apply this to traditional mediums. Coloring pencils are a super slow medium, but drawing in a small size should cut down the time spent significantly. Watercolors are a bit trickier as I can't really go back and forth, but a smaller monochrome (think in terms of sort of a thumbnail) as a start. To map in the lights and shadows. Then identifying the colors I can see in the photo, planning out a layered approach with those colors, and bringing it all together in a final piece. The theory will be the same, but the approach needing to be done differently. Depending upon what medium one picks. I do got access to digital painting tools, and also have a love hate relationship with adobes subscription model. lol. But currently in a phase in my life where traditional is a ton more appealing. Great tutorial by the way, felt like I learnt some things by merely watching it.

Any painting media other than watercolor will work great for doing this in non digital media.

Yes, I think I should make a video just about traditional mediums. The concepts of light and color will apply to any art your create, but the processes will vary wildly. Watercolor cannot use this method, but oil paints and acrylics can. The concepts of color and light apply to all mediums, but the processes to mimic that light in different mediums varies wildly. I have not taken the time to master many other mediums so I stick with digital. I've dabbled in oil painting. Great comment. Thanks for writing :)

@@LightingMentor it would be quite interesting to see you approach panting light, in some traditional mediums. I believe guache would work well too, with the method you showed. But watercolor is an entirely different beast, it definitely requires a lot more careful planning - and color and light knowledge too I believe. Specific to watercolors. However, problems are there to be solved. And deliberate practice do eventually make perfect.

Lovely video (and channel), I think it was stated already but you have a natural way of talking to ME and not into a camera as your message feels clear. I just made my first 15 minute study of the egg photo and I found myself fighting off the urge to get all the little details and consistently reminded myself to just look at the bigger details only. It made a massive difference in the way I need to think and I enjoy the outcomes. I'm on my 3rd one of the day and it's just getting better. I would like to tag you in socials of the process but understand how tough that would be. I hope to hear more from you when you and your videos. Thanks!

Jeremy, thank you so much for making and sharing your knowledge with us. I'm good when it comes to shading with a pencil, but have struggled with learning how to paint and blend with color. The way you teach makes it easy to understand and inspires others and myself. I hope you are doing well and thank you again. :D
