Ever wondered how Vermeer achieved those stunning, lifelike paintings? Is it possible he used a camera obscura? Today, we’re diving deep into the life of Johannes Vermeer, his unique style, and his groundbreaking technique with the camera obscura and comparator mirror!
From a humble life in Delft to becoming a celebrated master of light and color, Vermeer’s story is as fascinating as his art. In this episode, we’ll explore:
🔍 Vermeer’s life and artistic journey
💡 The secrets behind his serene, light-filled interiors
📸 How the camera obscura/comparator mirror might have played a role in his masterpieces
And for the grand finale, join me in a hands-on 7-step tutorial to create your very own Vermeer-inspired painting using the comparator mirror technique! 🌟

Thanks a lot! To be honest, even if I am happy with the result, I don’t find the mirror technique very practical. Having said that, I was able to learn a lot: for example that flat surfaces are not always even colorwise. The same wall can go from very dark to very light! I guess our eyes tend to correct and smooth things out… 😋

I wonder how Vermeer would have used the tools and art products of today. I imagine how his eye and hand would have transformed the picture. Awesome painting as usual. Thanks

Thanks Robert! Well, you know, I am not sure the tools have changed that much… sure, chemicals have given us safer colors and more mediums with fantastic effects, but you still have a canvas and a brush, in the end…

I really loved that « hippie life » of yours, man! There is plenty to learn out there, very often just by looking at the brushstrokes. Then we can incorporate those in our own styles!

It is a very interesting technique, but I honestly don’t think it is for me. It allows you to create very accurate works, but you lose the « fun of the chase » in trying to make your picture emerge from a blob of paint… 😋

youtube suggested your channel today, and I have watched a few. I enjoy you informative and entertaining format and your breaking down of painting technique. I can't understand why you don't have more views because your videos are very good ( I will tell my friends and family). Jean Charlot went to mexico and here in hawaii and had a lot of impressive murals & paintings it would be interesting if you would do a video delve into his artistry. Aloha.

Hello, what paper are you using?
@mygeekfamilycotton
@mygeekfamilycotton Месяц назад
Hi Sakura, it is an acid free watercolor paper (300gsm) by Derwent. What I find interesting is the canvas texture on the surface, that can replicate a painting on an actual canvas in linen or cotton.
@thornfree1967
@thornfree1967 Месяц назад
I don't quite understand how you can see where to make brushstrokes when you're looking at the mirror. Wouldn't the mirror be in your line of sight blocking the view of a canvas?
@mygeekfamilycotton
@mygeekfamilycotton Месяц назад
Yes, you have to go back and forth to see where the brush stroke is going. Also, just at the edge, you can see how the reality checks with the brushstrokes you already laid on the canvas. It is a long game of comparison between your canvas and the model, which is why I find it very strenuous on the eyes…
