- Call to Camera - Film Three: Portraits. Continuing our Art in Isolation series about the pictures you nurture at home, we now look at your wonderful portrait paintings in lockdown.
So I'm watching in autumn of 2023 now, when AI has reared its head in the public conversation. I am an amateur painter so I love this series. I think alot about the "work of human hands". I found the Call to Camera, segments very moving. As a painter I experience that emotional connection to a painting directly, thru subject, colour, line, texture... and it was lovely to see other peoples' connections and the style of image they chose. I found it very touching actually, and it made me cry. If ever there were an argument for art created by humans, and not by artificial beings, this would be it. Thank you Philip and Oliver for this wonderful series, and thank you to all those who sent in their images.
I really love that family portrait of the 3 of you, it's just such a beautiful and evocative composition. I can just imagine 200 years from now a 23rd century Philip Mould critiquing it.
Love Mrs. Mould's dress in the family portrait. Brilliant series, well done to you all, thank you ❤️
How surprising it is to be so moved by these reveals. I feel as if I want to know all of these interesting art lovers. Thank you for contextualising it all. Marvellous!
Well done Philip and Oliver and thank you for this series!
That was a real treat to see the works of so many artists. How I would enjoy to feast my eyes upon them day after day. ❤
Well Oliver well worth your bargain. You are the star of that portrait!
Wonderful! I love this series...so endearing and hopeful!
Thank you.
Great presentation. The loved the red lady portrait. But they were all so wonderful.
Thank you.
Wonderful! Thank you from Sweden. 🙏🏼
I enjoy all these, but this video was especially enjoyable to this American portrait artist.
Wow again...you both are a great team! I look forward to each a every production. So appreciate this production...during my isolation. PS I love the title Art in Isolation. I see this as an enduring title...meaning separate from my life. Can’t thank you both enough. Nice to hear from Oliver...a real nice “touch” Cheers from Calgary Alberta
Thank you for your kind words. We are delighted that you've enjoyed the series.
The most fascinating yet. Thank you both.
Thrilled that you enjoyed watching this episode.
The image of the bearded man is a very good likeness but, with Vermeer’s ‘Girl With A Pearl Earring’ peaking out in the mirror the image makes for
a thought provoking view and i think it’s brilliant ‘Well Done’.
Thank you. That is very kind of you to say. I was pleasantly surprised Oliver saw my study of the Girl and put it in there . It added a bit of voyeuristic drama to the scene. Cheers, Jeff Reid artist, Connecticut USA
Thank you very much for this series, Philip and Oliver. I learn something new every time. I like what you produce together. How wonderful to be so productive during the lockdown!
I take refuge in these programs - thankyou !
Oh! .....I didn’t want this to end....
same here!
Thank you Philip, and Oliver I truly enjoyed it ‘more please’.
Extraordinary the difference in people's taste for paintings. Looking at the person themselves you would never guess that what they are standing beside is their favourite. Thanks P & O! Until next time.
So love your videos, quiet escape from hospital ward for a moment. Blessings xx
Fantastic!
Fascinating indeed, specially the presence of your son after the years and greatful comments.
I would like to see more in the topic of self portraiture I an artist my self , I was fascinating to realise my own portrait few years ago with burning roses..
After your inside of Frida khalo in her style blended in the portraiture.
So great
Thank you!!
Thanks so much Philip and Oliver for including my Tretchikoff-inspired blue lady LOLA! She’s hanging above our bed now. Absolutely loving your Art in Iso series! Rosa x
So much fun. Wonderful.
Amazing pics... I am restoring that exact same frame @ 5:08 in the studio. It's almost done. Mine has the label of "Elliot Blakeslee and Noyes... 127 tremont st" (Boston Gallery) on the back. Love the video, keep them coming. Art of any circumstances is what keeps me going.
you guys have done a really fine job with these videos-the concept and execution are brilliant. please keep going with them.
An eye opener on what one can consider a portrait. Thanks for another art episode.
This is fantastic! I so enjoyed this video particularly! It is very emotionally satisfying! Both you and Oliver are so talented! Thank you!
Thank you, Cheryl. We are so pleased that you are enjoying the Call to Camera Art in Isolation series!
interesting to know how a artist can be so refined in capturing a true likeness of the person that’s been painted.must take years of practice to achieve this. all though some are natural. Picasso could draw before he could talk.the portraits are very good fantastic family portrait brilliant series thank you
Great content, thank you both!
Discovered you on Fake Or Fortune. Liked seeing your son in the end bit. Thanks for what you are doing.
6:34 Charles Dickens' lost portrait... lost for 150 years and found in South-Africa in a box of trinkets... Great to be alive and see this early-Victorian portrait miniature rediscovered !!!
I think that your family portrait is stunning.
Well done! Up-lifting! Love from Amsterdam, Cuno.
Thank you for including my portrait of Edward de Bono. I love your series
Thank you for your submission!
Fascinating! I think I saw the “lost” miniature portrait of Charles Dickens at the end of the second segment, didn’t I? Thank you for another beautiful video!
Well spotted!
thank you so much for making and editing these.
Thank you for immortalising my little Dora !
So many of the people showing paintings alongside themselves looked like the people in the portraits that they loved so much, despite that many of the paintings were much older than they were.
I noticed the similarity of mood with people and their chosen portrait
It's an interesting perspective effect on your family portrait.
Oh teeth...... they can make or break a portrait !!!
Not so many teeth showing in the past ..... can you imagine trying to get paid when the pretty girl had missing teeth and you did a "honest "portrait ........the "dentist" in those days was a guy with pliers ! lol
I find drawing the teeth in tricky ... you do not want them to look like a line of tombstones!
Your channel is Always enjoyable and so interesting !!!
Thank you.
superb music selection !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
It is so very interesting to see what touches people.
What a lovely find! Great video, Phillip. Many thanks.
THANK YOU Philip...your Art in Isolation series has helped me to stay almost sane here in Saudi Arabia lockdown...I am painting alot...who knows? One day you might critique or even hang one of my pieces. Wonderful 12 minutes of warm informative personal video
Brilliant !!!! 😊👏🌈
Thank you once more for yet another video. Delightful to see your son and collaborator, Oliver, appear as though by magic in front of your large and very handsome family portrait. Do you think that your wife, at some point, might also consent to an appearance? Potentially valuable to present her point of view on your doings and hers in that magnificent old house during this pandemic -- or don't you think so?
Wow, just wow
Um retrato! Apenas um retrato! Pertence aos séculos de todos nós...
I will at all cost avoid being photographed, I really hate it, yet for some reason I have always liked the idea of having my portrait done (be it a sketch or in paint) as for some odd reason I am happier to see someone else idea/view of me. The portraits style of the 20s and 30s using blocks of colour I think can really capture a spirit of a person more than any photo could of done.
Steven, I am in this video towards the beginning, with a recent self portrait, the scene is the one with the study of the Girl with the pearl earring in the background. If you are interested in having your portrait done I would be happy to speak with you. I reside in New England in the US on the east coast, but a fine portrait can be done from suitable photographic reference, or I can arrange to travel to you for a sitting.

Kind regards, Jeff
Thankyou Guys a very worthy family portrait
Excuse me folks, but how gorgeous is Oliver Mould!? Handsome!
Always delightful thank you
Thank you for this episode. We enjoyed it very much.
Wonderful!
The dog lays recumbent in a noticeably traditional portrayal of family fidelity. Less conspicuous but nonetheless interesting, the dog's face abuts the children's illustration of a raccoon, including exclamatory graphic elements i.e. speech bubble/ exclamation mark: denoting communication in an otherwise mute arrangement. Placed amid the coppice, the figures give an impression of being stuck in transit, or castaways. As incongruous as the hard-backed chair, which bespeaks of home and hearth, elicits an associative leap.
Excellent!
Thanks Philip, enjoying your videos.
Editing, a bit like studying, just process, appreciate it...from months later and on the other side in isolation in Victoria, thanks
Please do more of these.
Thank you!!
Is your family portrait by Stuart Pierson Wright (hope I've got the correct spelling) a bit Stanley Spencer in style?
Regarding your family portrait, Phillip, it appears to me the artist has channeled a self portrait through the use of your family’s image. I think many portrait painters unconsciously do this.
Another excellent isolation series. Nice family portrait painting but who was the dog??
Thanks again!
Thank you both.
Where's your portrait? ❤
Thanks gents.
Oliver caught the girl with the pearl earring study in the mirror, good eye
I think it was the guy who sent the photo already taken, sent in. Not oliver
No. It, like all the others, is a viewer-submitted photo. Credit to Oliver for his use of panning and editing the images.
ARTWERKS STUDIO I’m the artist that did the self portrait and the Girl study. My studio is a where I took the photo, didn’t realize the Girl study could be seen in the picture. Seeing the clever zoom edit Oliver made made me smile. Well done
Wow, just wow! It's so nice to meet all my fellow commenters and fans of art
I hope I made the cut this time...
Nope.
ivorytower99
Me too. Maybe next show.
The most frustrating is not knowing the of sitter or artist
Speaking for myself, I was both sitter and artist, cranky subject though he looks. It’s towards the beginning, the one where Oliver caught a glimpse of the Girl with a Pearl Earring study I did in the mirror
I love Sydney Nolan . Too bad , he was ripped off by his lover and co - Painter . Shame . That's life I suppose .
