  • In this video I use a reference photo from a trip I took to Italy and interpret the colors and atmosphere in oil paint. Using only a palette/painting knife, this approach allows me to freely create my own impression of this quaint little town of Vernazza in Cinque Terra. I use reference photos (that I've taken) for just that and try not to copy literally. Try to remember the location or object and what you felt that drove you to make a painting from the photo. Oil painting with palette knife. Palette knife painting. How to paint with oils for beginners. SOLD via YT October 2014.

    My 6 year old son sat here and watched the entire video! He was mesmerized with your work, as was I! I took him to the local art supply store, today. He informed everyone in the store that HE IS an ARTIST! =) He came home from school, yesterday, and declared that he was an artist and he HAD to paint! You made a little boy's day, today! He loved your video!

      Karren- being an artist requires a lot of courage. I'm glad your son found inspiration. May his life be full of art and creative genius. Please check out my site michaelpintar.com and have him send me an email with one of his masterpieces.

      I know this is two years ago, but is your son still painting? Do you have a place to view his works. Love the story how he got motivated by watching this.

    This is insane! I love oil paints and discovered palette knives and other methods to paint just a few months ago. I dont think i could ever be as good since this is in such detail, i dont think id ever be able to notice little things like that. Atleast i can try! Thanks for showing this

    I'm digging your vids on abstract ... I'm taking my first intro to painting course as part of my major requirements and the teacher isn't very good at teaching so watching your techniques it helpful. she's too busy focusing on the students that have obviously already been painting for years and here I am just trying to get through it so I can focus on photography :D
