73 Artists meeting artists | Sam Drukker
Titus Meeuws visits painter Sam Drukker. Sam prefers working on old used wooden boards, sails and rough materials because of the hidden histories in these materials and the need to play with structures and left paint. "There was a time I wanted to know as much as possible about painting techniques to become a skillful artist. But the things you can't control are very nice. So trying to control a line with a material that doesn't work with you is nice. To make it difficult for yourself."

72 Warm & Cool Colors Higher saturation

I want to paint with deeper colors and use a stronger contrast in warm and cool this week. I start with almost the same composition as the watercolor I made some weeks ago, of the government buildings and the Mauritshuis in The Hague, Holland.

71 Plein air or painting in the studio? What's the difference?
zhlédnutí 4,1KPřed 14 dny
Many artists swear by plein air painting; in open air, outdoor. I do that regurarly in summertime. It brings me quick and simple solutions. It asks another approach. In this video I start with a quick watercolorsketch at Kneuterdijk, 5 min from my studio in The Hague. The next day I will be working on a larger watercolor inside the studio of the Departement van Justitie, in The Hague as well. D...

70 The extraordinary in the ordinary

I remember the annoying visits at museums when I was a child. Standing in a row, waiting to get a glimpse of something everybody must see. There is a universal beauty, we all like. But artists find beauty in almost everything, they don't have to look for it. These weeks I'm working on a small series of Amsterdam. I am painting a different part than I do usually. Less known, but more interesting...

Of course I want the painting to succeed. But I can always start again, paper isn't that expensive. In this demonstration I show that I always try to be honest to what I see and HOW I look. It means that I have to work in a hurry here and there, I compare it to signing a signature.

    Now we can see it here too, how important are all these skills, this knowledge, all these years full of experience, this concentration, the motivation, rituals - BUT at least as important: the things you can´t control... The courage to let it go and get involved in the "whole thing" that allows you to act so free, like partially leading by a strange hand. When we are able to work like this, that´s a great gift - we all should reach for it. Thank you for this wonderful meeting, very inspiring! I am happy to see your next quiet moments in your studio soon ☺

  • @ninner196
    @ninner196 Před 9 dny

    This is Jennie, I changed my handle. Glad to be able to catch your video Titus! Capturing the different planes of course we know it is what gives our paintings the perception of dimensions and certainly for those who would like to learn those techniques there are a variety of CZcams videos that do explain in detail vanishing point and planes or do the easy way and put a string around the pencil, use a pin and ruler( I didn’t say that 😊) but over time with practice those techniques become very familiar and necessary. I really enjoy the brighter colors and shadow play in your paintings while using those many transparent layers. I love drawing birds of all kinds and paining myself over details. But I do let loose outside and it is relaxing. I was going to say I would do your birds and you could do my buildings 😂But seriously I enjoy your work and wish that I could hear your discourse and collaboration, it sounds great and I am very happy for you and hope that those that live nearby can take advantage of the opportunity. It really is wonderful to learn from one another and to push our horizons. Thank you and happy Friday!😊

    Titus a question not about watercolor but drawing.I see you start and soon the proportion of shapes are in line with the paper size. What's the technique? I need few attempt tò reach the same result. Thanks Ciao Paolo

    • @ninner196
      @ninner196 Před 9 dny

      I am certainly not Titus but there are many helpful videos on explaining how to capture the different planes to create dimension on paper. Certainly sketching is the key but if you put in the search bar words such as learning to sketch the different planes. They will show you the longer way with a ruler and protractor that will make sense in relation with the horizon and there are hacks after one understands the technique and becomes familiar with the techniques. It certainly isn’t a 2 minute answer. Using scratch paper to become familiar and pausing the videos will help. For changing sizes if I understand your question from perhaps a photo to a larger painting that depends on the technique of your preference. Looking at certain points in relation to others helps and rechecking with a ruler, there is the grid method or the use of a proportional divisor. One end is set at the size of the photo and the other to the size that you would like it to be. Eventually a pencil works or even a thumb. It’s trial and error but you can do it as it really isn’t too difficult. Enjoy the process and best wishes, Bom día Ciao😊

    • @ninner196
      @ninner196 Před 9 dny

      Here are a few videos to help get you started, the last one is the most advanced but maybe they would help. 1) The Horizon lines and Vanishing points Explained - Dan Beardshaw, 2) How to draw 2 point perspective easy -IDraw 3)Everything about Perspective and correct Mathematical use of Vanishing points advanced-PhipsArt. Also there is a Short video for one point perspective for city drawing by Tobysketchloose which is easier. Hope this helps😊

    • @robertstephson7455
      @robertstephson7455 Před 5 dny

      Many don't care about proportion much, and their work suffers. It looks random, not compelling. Proportion is one of the great pillars of art, and the fact that you care about it means you will find a way to achieve it. I achieve it in my own work, but after DECADES I cannot do it anywhere nearly as readily as Titus can. I have to erase and reconfigure the elements more than I care to admit. The best I can suggest is to keep trying your hand at it, and don't give up till the result is pleasing to you.

    • @TitusMeeuws
      @TitusMeeuws Před 5 dny

      Hi, I don't think there will be one single technique, but an eyeopener for me was the moment a drawing teacher at the art academy showed me you can see shapes, but the spaces between shapes become shapes as well when you focus on them.
