His quick paintings are absurdly better than anything I could ever do even if I spent days on it. *cries in corner*

[@Kate-vd3hl]

Isabella Sauthier study form and light. This helps you represent what you memorize. Then study different things, faces, bodies, gesture, animals color. These are the things with shapes. You need to build 3D rotations of these in your head. But start with form and light. Draw floating grey blocks, render them as much us possible so it looks like you can reach out and grab them. Advance to more complicated grey shapes and draw them every day as an aid to the other studying you do that day. It's a lot of fun. These grey blocks were all I made to win the art show at my school. Put on some good music and get to painting.

[@tomjey]

He put his video on speed to fast forward it thru the work, otherwise this vid would have lasted over several hours ;)

[@skiddzjust1389]

Tom Jey 30-40 min one work, he was telling

[@iclaimthisname9767]

keatonwice "I have no digital painting skill or experience" they said. That's why that person said the other person was a beginner (I'm on android, that's why I say "the person" (can't see the names while writing my comment))

[@kevinillustrations]

@Dalton Beauregard u seem like u know what u talking do u have an insta or something where i can direct message u if it's not too much of a bother i just need some guidance and what u said kinda help but am also kind of confused

[@MasterHKS]

I'm currently joining the Concept art route and what really amazes me about concept artist is that they draw 4 squares, 2 lines, 3 shadows and one light and the draw something that makes you say "Oh! that's a ____" simply amazing :)

[@FlorzinhaDraw]

Many of the tutorials I've attended, are just a lot of content, explained in an out complex, only for those who already know something, but your tutorial is perfect, especially for those who are beginner, you explain in a very clear and informative way.

[@WalidFeghali]

I'm happy to hear that. :)

[@pegas203]

this must be the first time i learned so much from a video, especially as a beginner in digital painting ...

[@TheSangson]

Hell, I know the feels. The guy knows what he's doing in the whole teaching thing, also demonstrated by the kind of info (amount and quality) he puts out for free. That's how good teachers/good art schools work in the broadband age, you can learn sooo fucking much on your own so you really know where to take courses eventually, and to not be such a huge pain in the ass when they start working with ya one on one. Nordsken has a really great approach to the thing on top of that, he really tells one what to do and not just a lot of stuff that was basically clear anyway w/ a painting demo like in a lot of first gen art tutorials.

[@todroyas692]

You see, this is the tutorial that we have been wanting for years and never got. Until now. Thank you for this video, it is the most helpful video about digital painting that I think I have ever seen.

[@WalidFeghali]

I'm very glad to receive such a comment! And I'm happy I can be of any help to people wanting to get into painting and becoming good artists. :) I am currently working on a free course + a larger in-depth course on digital painting, so stay tuned on www.evenant.com (subscribe on the Design!). :)

[@plakjeham118]

you're one of the best artists I've. ever seen. Not only because your art is incredibly good. It's also because you seem to know what you're doing and talking about. Most videos I've seen are just complex ramblings. While you, are just straight forward and clear. (Also, you seem to really enjoy talking about stuff like this. makes me feel motivated. I've worked with some artists and they seemed to quite.. suck.. in the way they're bringing "the message" to another. sorry for my bad English tough. :p

[@WalidFeghali]

Freya de Vries Aw thank you very much

[@plakjeham118]

I learned a lot from you already :D and I will

[@tomcharmet6391]

I’m going to enter in first year of a concept art school next year, it’s the perfect channel and tips for me thank you !

[@Blemonade1]

Congrats and good luck! You can do this!

[@victorjozek5384]

Nice ! I wish you a good adventure !

[@richiesun9676]

I'm trying man! 30 minutes to you is 10 hours for me. I'll get there.

[@auroracroft]

Wow Albert Bierstadt was so ahead of his time and your painting style has his influence. I love an artist who know his history.

[@Talmorne]

I wish this is what I could've been taught in my digital painting class, instead, we learnt how to photo bash the entire semester XD

[@apukiru]

Thank you so much! I've always wanted to learn or create landscape concept art. This helps me a lot as I tend to get very meticulous about my drawings/paintings - which in the end, frustrates me to continue anything. After watching your video, it makes me feel lighter.

[@Duskstone89]

I can actually feel the air in those mountains. Also, as someone who has been drawing creatures and characters for a while, maybe I should try some landscapes. It looks so awesome and therapeutic to do.

[@ImadAwan]

Love the last painting! Great sense of scale! Amazing choice of colours! Awesome! (Y)

[@WalidFeghali]

Happy you enjoyed it! Thanks. Best, W.

[@Jizzlewobbwtfcus]

DAMNIT! I don't have time to watch this now but I just NEEDED to tell you Walid how excited I was just watching the first 30 seconds and the prospect of watching this all tomorrow. You are amazing to share your own time with us. thank you SO much. Ty for the email updating me for this tutorial

[@WalidFeghali]

Happy to hear that! :)

[@arunkumarkumar7143]

Hello sir this is Arun kumar from Tamil nadu ,India. your vedio helps me more and i learnt a lot . Thank you sir .

[@WalidFeghali]

Arun kumar Glad to hear. Cheers Arun!

[@nakulgupta1530]

Albert B. Is one of the grestest landscape painters. I love his compositions and use of light. Thank you for the tutorial.

[@simoninternet3053]

I love to look at concept art because it leaves room for our brain to interprete, which makes it feels so good.

[@elisa-ren]

You're a lifesaver. I always hate making backgrounds for the characters I've made, but you have opened my eyes to see that it can be fun!

[@zakara8122]

Man this video is what I have been searching for! I've just started university and been given a module on landscape art, this will really help me! Thank you sir!! I couldn't believe you did it all on one layer :O Great video XD

[@WalidFeghali]

I'm glad you enjoyed! One layer painting keeps it all very natural and easy to progress quickly. But I do split up into several layers for bigger and more complex projects.

[@LeoCostaArt]

@@WalidFeghali latecomer here, and I was thinking the same thing, and meant to ask the question that you kindly answered above: " Does keeping the painting in one layer make the speed painting process simpler, and easier?" Tks for the answer! Cheers!

[@VirtualTurtleGames]

I am a graphic design student in my first year, but I had never used a graphics tablet. This video inspired me to buy the wacom intuos small. Now following your tutorials. Thanks! i've always dreamed of creating my own concept art etc. for my projects. You're explaining is very good.

[@darrellpidgeon6440]

The last one is my favorite. The atmosphere and golden sunset. Speed painting seems to be a good way to loosen up, which is something I need to improve on.

[@Mark_nobody3]

This maybe a bit late to reply but what I learned as a Novice digital artist is, yes it is about speed to get art done but it is also expanding on your knowledge and wisdom so things start with experience to grow into a professional then to a master until you reach grandmaster status

[@louisda8729]

I always rush into details to early or focus on the same thing for to long, But i can't seem to fix this problem because i can't paint when i'm over thinking things...

[@hopintheroflcopter]

I'm in exactly the same place! Lemme know if you find a way out please bud

[@WalidFeghali]

That hits a vital issue with a lot of artists when they're starting out doing more serious things. I will address it in a future video. Cheers!

[@hopintheroflcopter]

Thanks, mate! I've Subbed you're channel as this video was awesome alone, hope to see more of the same from you, and I'll check out your other vids a bit later Walid Feghali

[@hopintheroflcopter]

Also thanks for the brush pack! Just downloading now :D

[@Jizzlewobbwtfcus]

same hehe

[@bauscheusse]

Wish I'd seen this last year when I ran out of time to do any decent environments for this university project.

[@WalidFeghali]

Ah, well the time to improve and learn is never too late! :) Best, W.

[@seanposkea]

What?! You paint too. I've been listening to your steampunk music for years. Hey, save some talent for the rest of us!

[@WalidFeghali]

Hahaha sure do! :D Thank you for the comment and support, Sean.

[@seanposkea]

Truly. When I need to get motivated to start a new project that I'm procrastinating on, I'll fire up London 1856 and listen to that as few times to get me started. It almost always works. Just love that piece. (I bought it BTW) I didn't realize until now that you had panted the images on the slide show.

[@PengiChyan]

This video has helped me realized art is meant for me. What a nice feeling.

[@thomasl3332]

Ahah your final touch with the sharp filter is amazing thank you i finally know how make this effect that i like so much lol

[@dancegod1691]

They should make an app that connnects to photoshop and lets you use your phone/tablet as a controller for your program to help speed paint for a better workflow. It'd be a full screen that'd have a whole pallet of colors on it and let people select them by moving their thumb. In addition, the app could let's you switch brush size with a slider area. With training, eventually it's muscle memory and speedpaiting can become like printing.

[@Saphine27]

I usually don't ever comment, but I just wanted to say that I am so glad I found your channel. I am learning so much from all of your lessons, and your uplifting personality really makes one feel like they can accomplish what they aim to do. I look forward to seeing more videos from you and hope that I will get to your level someday! Cheers!

[@tomek777777777777777]

love the simplicity, and all in 1 max 2 layers. respect

[@KuroArtz]

Hands down the best video for this kind of stuff, thank you it was really helpful.

[@jamo1003]

Hands down one of the best tutorial series i've come across :D Much love from Norway

[@stephaniepeters2590]

"Nothing special", "just quickly executed" - can I hate you just a little for that statement? ;) Those are awesome.

[@WalidFeghali]

Haha sorry! :) Thanks for your words. Best, W.

[@FunArtWithDavidAnimator]

yes yes yes !!! this one is changed my life brother thank you very much !! it's helpful and i never seen before , i loved your channel you are my teacher hahaha thank you!!!

[@FrostbiteCinematics]

Wow! Your channel is SO damn great! :D Easily one of the best to learn to properly paint digitally. Recently just bought a Wacom (Intuos S. Nothing fancy of course) so I can start to get into it. I always over think things and never manage to complete something, but this tutorial in particular helped a lot! Thanks :D

[@vivekrserleena]

keep uploading man , people like you are all some people have . No one in my area knows what its like to see interesting images in my mind and struggling to make it a reality !

[@afrodan7350]

The "infamous Stave-Guy" made me chuckle because i see alot of artists use him in their work, including me XD

[@joediamond7988]

Wtf 30min and he made this!!!!! *Cries in the corner*

[@VBFilms]

Been creating a game for the last 3 months now and next up is painting graphics. So far I've learned 2d sprites, animation, coding, music. I hope this is the last new thing I have to learn xD. The main thing that is hard for me in painting and drawing is the colors. I seem to get too saturated or too vibrant colors too easily and it ends up looking cartoonish. Of course it's fixable by adjusting hue and saturation. But in videos like these the artist seems to find the right colors to every situation. The exact color for the shadow and highlights etc.

[@oanatatar5349]

great tutorial, I leard a lot from you. I'm a beginner and all I do all day is watching tutorials...yours is perfect! Keep on going! Thanks :)

[@alexradaev6444]

Last one speedpainting is reeeealy good!

[@WalidFeghali]

Thanks a lot!!

[@miyuuaka406]

hello! I've stumbled upon this video and I just want to say that you kind of opened my eyes! Like I've never really done speed paintings and it really helped me develope my ideas!! Making speed paintings is something obvious to do but I didn't actually do it until you told me that this is an option hahaha Thanks for the nice video!

[@emiliahasanova2714]

Oh Thanks! I learned so much from this video and it inspires me!

[@WalidFeghali]

Very happy to hear that Emilia! :) Best, W.

[@radiance5537]

I’m so glad this was on my recommendation vids! Thank you so much for creating this!😇

[@spookyabuki]

Almost all on one layer... Absolutely wild

[@rowanomilano5130]

Damn these are so useful, I've been binging like all your tutorial videos recently and they are so helpful! Like everything you say is useful and interesting and I leave every video feeling so inspired and like I have learned so much! Definitely looking forward to putting this into practice :D Keep it up dude, you're awesome!

[@parivargaming7407]

Man, I sure hope I can become this good of a painter some day! By now I am probably nowhere near this level, but this just means I gotta keep up the hustle, right?

[@eduardogonzalezmelgoza7895]

Wow, I have never decided to subscribe to any channel this quick...

[@captainofnumenor8221]

This artwork is absolutely beautiful

[@rec0n97]

Holly crap this is really cool and informative, I absolutely love the feel of this paint, this is the stuff that I tried to paint the other day and failed terribly, this kind of sci-fy desert landscape with almost the same color scheme and really orange sunset in the horizon plus the lens flare, overall awesome video! thanks for the tips

[@Enzo-cw5yu]

i love this channel already

[@lilcritics]

Really appreciate a video like this!

[@WalidFeghali]

I'm glad you find it useful! If you want more similar tutorials and brushes and such, subscribe to the design newsletter I have over at www.evenant.com/design-sign-up/ :)

Your channel is a treasure for beginners. I'm lucky to find you.)

[@WalidFeghali]

Happy you think so.

[@jaesalamanca1107]

Your tutorials are so effective! Thanks a lot, Walid!

[@austinmunson5034]

Very good video. It covers some pretty basic painting techniques and concepts. I would appreciate a vid that focuses on the photoshop aspect of the paintings. Just moving from traditional over to photoshop is a challenge in itself. My challenge being knowing how to use the tools. Maybe discuss the handy tools and their shortcuts.

[@joefilmco]

Wow I love the end result on the last example. Well done!

[@amysteriousviewer3772]

Oh man. I envy your skill. I have all these ideas for paintings flooding my head constantly but every time I try to put them down I’m not satisfied. They never *feel* right and don’t capture how I saw them in my minds eye. How long have you been painting for to become so good at it? You make it look so incredibly easy chugging out these marvellous landscapes as if it was nothing.

[@MidnightAhri]

I really like the look of speed paintings more than detailed finished projects usually 😂🙃

[@bernatoliva7774]

Walid, you did a beautiful and useful video. Congrats man.

[@WalidFeghali]

I am happy it's helpful! Thank you. :)

[@sathishk9194]

Superb works! Thanks a lot for the demo.

[@V1N_574]

Amazing work. Thank you!!!!

[@Nonamed70]

Hey there, i imagine this kind of practice is perfect if u want to get into concept art right? Getting ur ideas down fast and yet rly gold after sole time is the thing producers want to have from u i assume. I want to become a concept artist for movies or games in the future and i just started out with painting again so im not doing any digital stuff at the moment but its still very helpful and i will surely do that once im at the point i can paint relyably well in photoshop! Thanks for the vid man rly cool

[@parker-si2yq]

This is so relaxing to watch

[@topher5017]

honestly speed painting is my favorite cause its closest to the raw thought and for someone who doesnt have a long attention span it helps a lot

[@Graph4m]

Nice job on the work and a big thank you for this tutorial. It was so easy for me to understand and that's something not many people can achieve being able to talk to every artist who wants to paint in concept. Also subscribed because well why not after such a helpful video.

Speed Painting is for expert to express idea and refreshing stress work If the Newbie try it... it's just gonna be worst and wtf painting. Better to do it as long as you can, but great. rather than too rushy.

[@HitBoxMaster]

>for people who have limited visual knowledge, What does that even mean!?

Hey man. you said in the video there will be more in this series? I really enjoyed this video and learned alot. I would love to see one where you teach us the techniques since me and a lot of others are still very new. I hope you keep making more videos. You are a very good teacher.

[@WalidFeghali]

Hi! Thanks for the compliments. Yes, I will be creating more. :) I am also in the process of making an online course for this, where you can learn everything you need from the very beginning to make some good concept art! Stay tuned for more.
