Wonderful : 9 Wonderfully : 1 Thanks, this was a great brain exercise after waking up.

@oppositeofh8 3 года назад

i'm gonna say 10 wonderfuls, but i got distracted about 3/4 of the way through, & felt like i may have missed an 11th.

@BmadCreative207 3 года назад

I just got the P in slewp... it's professor... this guy just gives great advice. so many talented youtubes and this guys a photo realist... ima keep tryin to learn from em all.

@WhoCaresAlisha 3 года назад

I agree, he fondly reminds me of all of my old University profs in the arts and sciences department. It's great to see others share their processes.

@veermanghnani 3 года назад

dude no way i was just browsing my phone and i was like "hey whats slew up to?" and just as i was about to open youtube to search your channel i got the notification for this video. crazy.

@DannySabraArt 3 года назад

I really like how you showed the photo process but also talked about some things that could be better. I think that’s really inspiring and shows people starting out it doesn’t have to be perfect to be good. I think it looks really nice man. Keep it up!

@NicMac 3 года назад

The studio is looking so so sick!! So cool seeing the space evolve 🙌🙌

@kellywilson2147 3 года назад

Watching this come to life during the livestream was such a treat! I love the brush strokes you added using the large brush, they were just the right touch. The blue highlight was a stroke of brilliance and was just the pop it needed. Always enjoy all of your content! 💜😉

@bygollystudio8567 3 года назад

I really love watching your glass palette while you are painting I really like how you have done that

@madelynsmith8281 3 года назад

Your values are always spot on. I struggle with that a lot. Looks amazing.

@danieldowning6644 3 года назад

Beautiful work! Thanks for the tips with the yellow red blue. I've never tried that. I appreciate the insight. Keep it the great work!

@lewisone 3 года назад

I hope to see you in Portrait Artist of the Year super soon buddy. Very cool.

@MidIslandCustomDiecast 3 года назад

I don't paint, sometimes I wish I could, but I don't have, or am not willing to spend the time to learn right now... But I'm leaving a comment because I love watching your videos and comments help the algorithm, lol. Cheers

@jubeesays716 3 года назад

Definitely can relate to the difficulties finding time for painting! I'm just kinda starting to dive back into it this year for the first time since high school (~15yrs), lucky if I get twice a month. For me, the time I find is totally worth putting the other bs aside. Painting is an outlet where I can stop being so critical of myself and just create.

@juliettewilliams7400 3 года назад

Hey slew because of you a couple of days ago I bought my first oil paints I got the Zorn pallets I plan on doing portraits and you showing your process is a big help bless your soul. Oh and are there any videos, books or tips you might have for doing portraits would be a big help I love the history of all of it thx

@aethelwulf7819 3 года назад

As an artist, I do use a lot of references for my artwork, though sometimes I will paint from imagination when I am confident to do so. I'm painting one right now from imagination - which is working out quite well!

@mjpete27 3 года назад

I like how you keep mentioning that you work for only about 4 hours on the painting. DaVinci spent years on the Monalisa, some say he never called it a finished work! It moved with him across Italy he continued to go back to it and refine his “vision” of her. No photos back then! Enjoyed watching your video Sam, thank you for continuing to share your art journey with us. Be safe out there and keep doing what you do!

@CJShopland_Art 3 года назад

Four hours is just a sketch , looks fully finished to me, looks great 😊

@Marzkep 3 года назад

How do you hang the Masonite board later do you add wood to cradle it?

@stephaniebelenets2666 3 года назад

A floating frame maybe.

@GalleryBry 3 года назад

If it’s 1/8” hardboard it can fit in any standard photo frame if you remove the glass. If you would like a nicer frame, most framers have options for closed corner frames and more.

@vibhratchaubey 3 года назад

Best part of having a photo reference is that ..You can have a frisbee break and get back on it later whenever you want.

@DanilaAbramenkovArt 3 года назад

Cool)) 4 hours is not that long i could say))

@artmentor-chrishendrix1724 3 года назад

I’m surprised to see you use Liquin to oil out your painting, I didn’t think you were supposed to do that! I’ve always used refined linseed oil.

@racheledington5447 2 года назад

How do you know when to choose a cool or warm shadow?

@demsyciu 2 года назад

The colour and the dark and light areas i think is okay, but i think you missed it hardly on the Philtrum (area under the nostrils). You put in under the nostril, not the tip of the nose, so i think that also made the lips a little bit slight off of the center.

@michaelbang5588 3 года назад

@ziHeriCa0s 3 года назад

artist often not knowingly paint themselves when painting other people; I noticed you really emphasize the nose and make the chin much smaller; try using a grid in the future, it really helped me!

@92RyanWalsh 3 года назад

What medium do you use to wipe away the paint when you want to re do alignments in this video ie around the eye area early on?

@slewp 3 года назад

just use a little odorless mineral spirits

@aleenashaven 2 года назад

Soo Like I can only paint nature landscapes which I post on my youtube channel ,who else loves watching portrait vids but can't paint loll but I wish to build more interest in portraits.

@yakububunhamid7864 3 года назад

@kevin-lancheros 3 года назад

the problem with photos is that they're just second hand sources, to draw from life will be always the first hand way of learning

@tuiomiller2008 3 года назад

Do you have a course or something?

@mryelo8936 3 года назад

You forgot to spin the board on your finger 😂

@tracye1866 3 года назад

Everyday I take another step closer to trying my hand at oils. Then I end up balking when I realize I will need (so much) more than a cup of water to get started. Ha.

@DannySabraArt 3 года назад

You could always try water soluble oil paints!

@consbulaquena9497 2 года назад

I also cannot paint portraits without reference.

@sophroniadee6841 3 года назад

Slew, Did you study with Sharon Sprung? I thought she was in that montage at the beginning where you showed some of the work you did in the atelier. I love your videos and instruction. It is commonsense and you tell when you veer off on your own path because of your experiences and preferences. It’s good to be original.

@slewp 3 года назад

Yes she was my instructor for 3 months at the Florence academy of art!
