I think the fact that you miss your pen sketch showing through works IN your favour, not the other way around. It looks beautiful. It looks 100% intentional in a way that always made me kinda jealous cause I feel like personally I always miss that moment where it just looks amazing and gives the painting this looseness while still looking polished and finished and just beautiful. And I feel like your pen sketches peeking through achieve that. I seriously absolutely love it, and I hope that you'll keep doing it cause I think it gives your paintings just something so special and so beautiful.
😭thank you so much, Mael! This whole comment just made me feel less self conscious about the lines showing. And now i just want to paint like this more. Thank you so much for this
The red lines are actually my favorite part of this painting. I don't know enough about art to explain how or why. I just feel like it makes the painting more genuine. It makes it look more real and warm and human and gives it this depth of relatability that perfectionism doesn't ever seem to attain.
The talent you have in art is beyond admirable, every piece is so unique!! You naturally paint away and you capture the character and personality to the final stroke!! Whether it be intentional or not your process always works!! Even down to the line work, it adds fine detail too, with or without this piece would still remain incredible!! I love your videos so much, they inspire me like crazy and can't thank you enough for sharing your art with the world!!😊
Your videos are so inspiring. You've got a peacefull voice. Musics are really relaxing. Your paintings always ends beautifully even with the pen showing through. (And some ways I prefer when the sketch appears than when it's all covered). You mix your color such a great way with so little amount of gouache. Whouah I hope I could do the same. I'd love to paint like this.😍 And your brush strokes are so loose during the process. I can't stop watching your videos. They are just magnificent.
This is so beautiful. I only do digital painting but there's something about watching the way traditional work comes together that's so mesmerizing and satisfying to watch, lovely work!
I really enjoyed the video, it gives me inspiration to work more on my art, thanks! By the way, I've been saving this video for like almost a year in the watch later playlist, and right now after I watched it, I'm really happy bcs I watched it at the right time❤
Concerning the gouache/watercolor mix you attempted around 3:00: Another reason it could've ended up that way is that Sennelier (like most European and even Russian watercolor paints) uses honey in their binders which leaves the paint nearly permanently wet. Even when it dries, the stickiness of the honey may somewhat persist and if you squeeze them from tubes into pans they will remain glossy and wet looking even when the pans are thoroughly dried.
for me I prefer when your sketches somehow peak through... I don't know but it feels to me that the sketches peaking through the paint makes the piece more "painterly" hahaha like it's not a perfect copy of the reference that it still a reminder that the piece is not a printed copy or a photo or whatever. It gives your pieces an identity and a trademark. and I love it coz it makes your work seem more organic yet surreal
I'm totally enjoying your analysis of this painting!! I'm learning so much!. I'm so glad you decided to add in the background because that's what drew me ❤
I can really advise you and other artists too, invest your money in Japanese handmade brushes - you will see that it makes a huge difference to our western top brands. You can paint much finer and more precisely with the good Japanese brushes and they don't spread out so extremely when you need fine lines, because the hairs stick together more and they are bundled together a way tougher.
Tip for desaturation: mix a small bit of the complimentary color to whatever you are trying to dull. Ex: Mix in small bit of orange to desaturate the blue. Really beautiful painting keep it up!
I don't know what you were talking about,i only understand a little bit of English so i'm taking this translation of Google to say that...the art you just made was surreally amazing,i really wish i could draw like you,you draw in a delicacy so beautiful.Your drawing was a wonderful art,from the sketch i thought it would be beautiful.
You should use a peace of cardboard under the picture so the other paper doesn’t get wet. I did a couple of paintings some with paint pen others with paint and paint brush . And I use chalk I just finished a semester in college in art class it was quite fun it was my second time in the same class. Ok have fun with your painting.
The watercolour you used has a honey binder. I think that's what caused your problems. Also are you using the artist Gouache or the Acrylic Gouache. The latter won't mix with watercolour cus it's basically acrylic paint. But this is still amazing!! I like the linework being vidable in places. It gives it more emotion.
ive been trying soooo hard to learn how to sketch, i was good at it many years ago but now im horrible lol i forgot how to and cant sketch T.T your sketches are sooo beautiful and the finishing piece is marvelous!! ugh! when will i ever get to this point!
