Yes yes yes. I love your comments about the often overlooked little visuals like scratches and the nature of lighting on metal. Wonderful! I also love the act of painting feeling the medium through the brush and having a physical piece afterwards. Thank you for sharing!
Donato is a fantastic draftsman and the nicest guy. Met him at a convention a couple years ago. It looks like the DVD is going to rock, gotta get it. I paint digitally now, but looking at this demo makes my hands itch to get my brushes out and assemble my dusty ol' easel. Thanks for the demo!!!
You are amazing artist,and painter wow blow me away thank you for your time hope to see more videos from you you have helped me learn so much watching you
you chose an excellent figure for your illustration. her eyes are amazing and her features are symetrical. awesome picture. as though you took a live 3D subject made it into a 2D illustration then made the illustration become real again. loved it.
This was beyond amazing!! Had I not looked at the title and saw oil painting (and of course watch him paint) I would have thought the image was done digitally!
Dear Donato. Greetings from Lincolnshire England I am a British professional Aviation artist and your film of you working on this beautiful painting is a true record of brilliance. I love what you are doing . I wish you great success always with your wonderful art. Yours sincerely and with great respect sir. Simon W. Atack
Wonderful, wonderful process stuff. Talk about an effective advertisement for the full product. Process-peeking with these production values and with such a willing, sharing artist (who happens to also have sick nasty skills) is pure joy.
jaw dropping incredible. I have been commissioned to do an oil painting and i haven't picked up oils in years. so im youtubing paintings and techniques to kind of get myself back into gear... and i get tree after rose after landscape after blaaaaahhhhhhhhh then i come across this... which is every essence of my passion put into oils... I am absolutely blown away and SO INCREDIBLY INSPIRED that I cannot wait to pick up these oils and go to work... I cannot thank you enough.
The other thing that is truly special about this tutorial is that this is an artist that shares so much....and $60.00 is nothing for what he offers...truly most generous. I can name several DVD's that I have bought of some artists who basically just sit there and paint...and offer NOTHING in the way of helpful info...NOTHING...and they have the gall to charge money for that...this man is generous and shares alot of excellent info..and is in his everyday studio...you see it for real. Awesome!!
Hello, just stumbled upon your channel... 1. Your work is whoa !! 2. You are so passionate about what you're doing 3. I love your attitude ( "wish that you could go beyond me... " wow that's so humble of you) Hope to follow and see more of your Work! Cheers 😊
I got this and it's AMAZING! Not rly my kinda style tbh but these r 5 hours of perfect quality almost "in person" proces of creating amazing art.If you expect to see "this is how you draw hands and that's how u draw legs" kind of tutorial it may not come to your expectations. If you wanna see how a real master does all the magic and if u want the magic devided into easy steps and all the mystery off and away- this is for you! A giant push of encourigement!
I own this and watch it frequently for motivation and just because I love to watch the process. Good stuff. Highly recommend other artists, artist wannabies like me, artists looking to improve their fantasy art to a better than more than youtube level, and people who just love fantasy art get this video.
My local art store doesn't sell sketchbooks in that color, they're all white. I don't want to constantly tone my paper, so it looks like I'll have to order them online now. Fantastic video.
