Tom Keating On Painters - Van Gogh

[@chel3SEY]

The confidence of Keating's painting is remarkable. He seems to know exactly what the painting will look like and where each single stroke belongs before he even begins to put brush to canvas. The painting seems to paint itself.

[@madpainter7114]

Mr. Keating is also a sensitive and gentle soul. These videos have a value that go beyond mere instruction.

[@KeatShadows]

Tom passed away in 1984. Glad we have these clips.

[@incognito3620]

Mr. Keating made this work so effortlessly. I am shocked. I made two attempt at copies and now realize I was too careful and did not use enough paint. Vincent was a genius for sure. Thank you sir for the demonstration.

[@fatoomgierdien2181]

Tom Keating!!! You are Most Interesting!! Thank You for a wonderful and informative lesson.

[@danatompkins4385]

I wish there were more fo Tom. There’s something about him and his temperament that is very soothing. He is brilliant too.

[@JohnAutry]

This is priceless....Thank You Tom Keating...and BuckwellM

[@chocolatcats]

Tom died 1984

[@kenheard5693]

I loved to hear him narrate with the fluid ness of his brush . It’s obvious that he had a great knowledge of art and he really enjoyed sharing his thoughts of Van Gogh. He makes the statement of when reproducing someone’s work how you start to feel the person. How true, for myself. When you have tuned into a painting and all distractions are cast out you are there. Hello senior creativity.

[@dibleyuk6378]

I know who owns Toms original painting and it is great to see how it was painted. I have to say it look so much better in real life!

[@TortugaLanguageProductions]

Tom Keating On Painters - lots to learn......amazing video....

[@robinfereday6562]

His autobiography is a great read and he explains the reasons for his forgeries and says most paintings in museums are forgeries 👍

[@1977ajax]

'Should have shot a few art dealers, not himself.' Love Tom's attitude to all this!

[@Grimexperience62]

So sad that this talented and knowledable man has left us. Thank you mr Keating.

[@marytaylor2381]

[@berniemcsharry4221]

Wow brilliant I enjoyed your story telling you painted with such extraordinary ease, I could watch you paint for hours well done thank you.

[@teamcrumb]

wonderful to discover this series. wish oh wish we had similar footage of Eric Hebborn sharing his knowledge with us.

[@dianewassman722]

THANK YOU VERY MUCH TOM KEATING!

[@WonderTracks]

There is a great interview on BBC that aired just a few months before Tom passed away too. Such an amazing character in many ways. They don't come like that anymore. The interview: www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/p009mjx6

[@pencilcharlie1]

Thank you for uploading. What a wonderful summary of Van Gogh's life, while we watch Tom paint.

[@debleighton-bowlby3412]

I love watching you paint

[@chocolatcats]

this man Tom Keating died 1984..I love his art

[@africo9104]

Wow and this series still going almost 20 years later. Just shows how popular Tom still is. Just found this channel.

[@freddykrueger6571]

23:00 "He shot himself when he should have gone out i think and shot a few art dealers..." LOL !

[@harrymonk6]

I know, not cool

[@anupama.sharma2350]

Tom Keating is too good...we love u Vincent!

[@j0nnyism]

Vincent was a very kind man he felt injustice very strongly. Unfortunately he was socially awkward and combined with the slightly frightening expression on his face many perceived this as madness which with his own depression effected him deeply. He died believing he had been a complete failure

[@pamelajordan5948]

Yes thank you I've got his pictures all over my and when no hope inside him on that Starry Starry night he took his life as lovers often do I could've told you Vincent this world wasn't never meant for one as beautiful as you. I stole that Ii think it was McLean ..get the movie

[@movedon12]

The beauty of the man from the inside , thank you

[@jadezee6316]

my favorite...everyone with mature beliefs in art needs to read van goghs letters..to understand just how normal this man was and how repulsive the world really is...

[@nexussever]

The Van Gogh Museum in Amsterdam had a wonderful exhibit of Vincent's letters to Theo. I loved seeing the little images that he drew in the margins.

[@WonderTracks]

Care to elaborate? I know it's not the perfect forum, but if you'd care to paint the picture in broad strokes I'd be very happy. Yes, that was pretentious, using a paint analogy for a painter. I know. Let's move on..

[@screeningmimi]

@@nexussever The letters must have been wonderful to see - and I envy your trip to the Van Gogh Museum! I remember reading a book of letters Theo's wife had compiled, and though they weren't all of the letters written by the brothers, it is amazing just how detailed and lengthy they were.

[@sandrajohnson2489]

Vincent had more than just one sister and one brother. I am a huge fan of Vincent and his work and I am also a painter. I enjoy painting portraits of the old masters and I have done several of Vincent as I think he might have looked. I don't believe for a moment that Vincent shot himself. I believe that Rene Secretan shot him and it may have been accidental. Rene, his brother and parents were upper class from Paris and spent summers in Auvers. Rene was somewhat of a rebellious and wild teenager and his brother was a bit calmer but of course went right along with whatever Rene wanted to do. When they came across Vincent they began taunting him and basically stalked him and tormented him mercilessly. Vincent had somewhat of a reputation himself as being a 'madman' and many of Auvers residents didn't like him. However, Vincent also had a lot of friends who were painters as well. Rene and his family had attended Buffalo Bill's Wild West show in Paris and Rene was so taken by it that he had his parents buy him a cowboy costume complete with hat and boots. Rene wore this costume almost all the time and enjoyed pretending he was a cowboy. Rene enjoyed fishing and hunting and owned a 38 caliber pistol that fired erratically. On the day Vincent was shot in the wheat field it was rumored that Rene and his brother saw Vincent walking up the path behind the hotel where Vincent stayed and they followed him. Vincent had walked up there to paint the field and it isn't known if he had already set up his easel or not but it IS known this is where Vincent was shot. Most likely, Rene and his brother began harassing Vincent as usual and Rene probably began waving the pistol around and it went off accidentally. The pistol was known to be inaccurate and not in the best condition. As soon as Vincent was shot, the two boys probably grabbed Vincent's painting materials, Rene flung the pistol as far as he was able to and the two boys ran off ditching the painting materials. Those were never recovered. That very same night, the Secretan family quietly left Auvers and headed back to Paris. It was in the middle of the night. Why did they sneak away like that? What did Rene and his brother tell them? I'm sure they didn't say one of them shot Vincent Van Gogh. Or did they? Vincent refused to say who shot him and he placed the blame on himself. When Theo arrived to Vincent's side he discovered a letter that Vincent had written to him. It wasn't a letter of suicide nor of despair. It was a cordial letter as usual and an order for more painting supplies. If Vincent had planned to take his own life, why would he order supplies? Also, if Vincent had wanted to kill himself, why didn't he put the gun in his mouth or up against his head? He was shot in the torso. The bullet completely missed vital organs but because there were no antibiotics back then, the bullet caused an infection and that's what Vincent died from. Rene Secretan had given several interviews later on in life. He admitted that he tormented Vincent every time they saw each other. Rene however claimed he had not known of Vincent's death. This is very odd. Secretan also talked about the movie, 'Lust For Life' starring Kirk Douglas. Secretan was in his 80's when he saw the movie. He said that Vincent looked nothing like the movie star and the movie was very inaccurate about Vincent's life and the way he carried himself. Vincent he said was raggedy, drunk much of the time and confrontational especially when he was drinking. Rene said that Mr. Douglas was far too handsome to play Vincent. Regardless of how Vincent died we have to be glad of the work he left behind for us to marvel at. I know I am glad.

[@africo9104]

Toms painting is very energetic, full and vibrant.

[@harddunbye6553]

Van Gogh actually had many opportunities to show and sell his paintings but consistently refused because he was convinced the "next" painting was going to be much better than the one's he had completed.

[@classicartfoundation639]

Beautiful

[@vksasdgaming9472]

Keating was brilliant at art technique. That means he had to have insight on how artists make their works. I wonder did Tom Keating ever create his own artworks? He certainly had more than enough skill and knowledge to make them.

Van Gogh. A Genius.

Muy buenas explicaciones maestro😁

[@julienporisse9902]

Vincent Van Gogh painted from 1880 until the 27th July 1890 , he died from a gunshot wound in his stomach at Auvers sur Oise on tye 29th July, and not Arles as was accidentaly mentioned in the film. Tom Keating knows a fair bit about Van Gogh, he understands the colour combinations of opposites and complementary colours. From 1880 until 1890 Van Gogh had a couple of dry spells (paintings) his early years in the Borinages (Belgium mining area), and in the asylum in Saint Remy for almost six months he was not allowed to paint much (after swallowing oil paint and turps). In a period of 70 days in Auvers sur Oise (35km from Paris) he painted 55 paintings and did almost 200 drawings (high production rate). In his 10 years he put in what most artists do in a lifetime...

Whatever dude

[@lisengel2498]

Lovely to watch but it leaves me a bit curious of e.g. "A kind of wash" ... what kind of color and media is used ? Is it pigment and water?

[@Lytton333]

Tempera paint. Egg, Pigment and binder diluted with water to make a wash.

[@SpottedBullet]

21:14 There is a letter to his brother in which Vincent complains about the price of art supplies and asks his brother if he knows where to find discount paints and supplies.

[@ingridye9509]

thank you very much Tom

[@alkasarin1073]

Please can you tell us how to make those colours thanks

[@gordonburns8731]

Isn't this, in Vincent van Gogh a sign of bipolar disease? I think so. Brilliant, Tom... such a great shame that you are no longer with us.

[@zvonimirtosic6171]

Van Gogh paints in One Go. (alla prima)

[@bru1015]

Did he ever have times in his life where he stopped painting for a while, or was he painting all the time? Anyone know...

[@jeremiahembs5343]

From the way I understand it Van Gogh painted even when he was institutionalized. But he did not start painting until rather late in his life as he was an evangelist before he tried painting.

[@bru1015]

+Jeremiah Embs I've always wanted to take an art history class, I've heard from others it's a really interesting class.

[@jeremiahembs5343]

Bruceann Yellowega It's great to learn things, but remember that those classes are usually just a way for the Marxist atheist teachers to push communism and evolutionary theory onto the students so it's a waste of money and if you are an artist learning more about the history of art will not help you whatever, so instead study photographs of old art and video tutorials online to learn technique and just practice. If you want to learn the history of art (which of course isn't the real history of art at all, but instead Marxist revisionist history) just save some money and watch a few documentaries on art history from youtube and you'll know as much or more than any college professor for free, or head to your local public library and check out a few good books on the subject or have them transferred to your library for free if they don't have the ones you are looking for at your particular library. You can get a college education for free at the library and one even better than that if you take good notes and quiz yourself and are picky about which books you use as a resource.

[@user-ih8ee2zq9r]

bro, i highly recommend you van gogh's letters to his brother, then you will know him as a man ,how he struggle for living, for progress of art, and for love. actually ,he is a very gentle man ,even his looking is rude , who will take care of a injured miner for months, if he is not gentle in his heart?

[@jctrewin]

he didn't start painting until he was in his late 20s

[@lotharmayring6063]

not the slightest resemblance of the lights form van Goghs painting

[@khm2917]

He never used palette knifes !!

[@gozza7199]

Knives

[@harrymonk6]

Says who?

[@robinfereday6562]

I think youll find he used quite a few when painting

[@michaelmcclure3383]

That ear cutting episode might have been at the hands of Gaughan who was an accomplished fencer

[@harrymonk6]

Proof?

[@lindakeating9569]

A

[@gazineyes]

The complimentary of blue is orange not yellow!

[@drinmer1]

Odeila Langdon in paint yes, but to the eye no, then blue and yellow belong together in the impresionistic artstyle. always remember the difference in the fysical layer and the visual.

[@Lytton333]

Which blue? Which orange?

[@harrymonk6]

Mate, not really the place is it. Reported

[@sathya-krishnaranganathan8942]

Yes but yellow ochre is technically orange.

[@SpottedBullet]

No Tom, this isn't really mentioned anywhere for obvious reasons but Van Gogh was in love with Gauguin. They had a lovers spat and Van Gogh chased Gauguin over to the pub, Gauguin told him he was leaving and Van Gogh sliced off his lobe. Gauguin came back and saw the police and told them to gently wake Van Gogh because he was alive but bloody; Gauguin then left never to return. They spent an absurd amount of time together painting objects and each other.

[@101turk]

Interesting theory, it has plausibility, would explain why he followed Gauguin w knife and cutting his ear off to be in control/ the source of his own pain, rather than others. I have a theory it might have something to do w Gauguin abuse of placing a likeness of himself in place of Christ on cross and other religious themed paintings. I believed VanGogh warned him many times not to do this it was as sac-religious and thus ending their relationship that faithful night.

[@CoreyAReeves]

What a horrendous painting. Nice history lesson though.

[@punishedsnake6141]

Corey Reeves Im sure you paint much better than Keating while listening to Salt-N-Pepa.
