Around two years ago, I saw J.C. Leyendecker’s art for the first time; it really motivated me to do art. I learned a lot; thanks for the video!
Aw I'm so glad to hear that, thank you so much for watching!!
It looks to me like Leyendecker is using a fairly limited palette here. Maybe just Prussian blue, yellow ochre, Venetian red, and white.
Compare this with his early Saturday Evening Post covers, where due to the cost of each additional colour print layer, he paints in only black, white, and red - but manages to create a convincing full-colour effect through judicious use of his single hue.
It looks like he worked fairly quickly and systematically. A lot ( - but not all - ) of those rhythmic patterns you notice in the shadows appear as if he's just hatched them in during the brush drawing stage and decided to leave them. They're convincing enough as is.
His plan for the model's skin seems to be: Yellow ochre and white for the local colour (turmeric complexion), with more ochre added for warm mid-tones, and a little blue added for the cool mid-tones. He shifts the local hue with Venetian red around the ears, cheeks, and nose, and this is how he prevents the subject from looking anemic.
The shadow colour looks like a brown made form Venetian red, yellow ochre, and a little Prussian blue.
The hair base colour looks like just yellow ochre straight from the tube. And so do the model's irises.
The lightest lights of the sailor suit are also heavily tinted with yellow ochre, with _warm shadows_ made from more ochre, a dab Prussian blue, and white. This gives the impression of the model standing in a golden light, such as a sunset. And that also helps to further contextualize (and excuse) the turmeric complexion.
Wow such a great explanation and analisys
My god this is amazing timing, I was planning on drawing my fave character in his style so this is unbelievably helpful! I also go crazy for paintings where you can see the touch of the artist so I obviously look to leyendecker a lot 😂 the underpainting technique was genius. I love your videos, you’re seriously talented!! It turned out great 🙏🙏🙏
Ahhhhh I'm so glad the timing worked out!! We must be on the same wavelength hahaha! Thanks so much, I'm so glad you enjoyed it! 😃
to check the values you can use a saturation layer and fill it in with grey to quickly turn your work into black and white, and compare your work to the reference to see where you can match the original better! in the original you can see that leyendecker used a peachy orange to offset the creamy light yellow highlight on the forehead, and then contrasted it slightly at the temple with a slight darker shade than you used in the study. the edges that he used to highlight the corners where the planes of the face meet are a lighter color and that gives the light a crisper feel. overall i think you did a beautiful job at this master study! thank you for the video, it was really informative and insightful! i look forward to seeing more of your videos
Ohhh this is actually such helpful critique, I super super appreciate the time you've taken! Thank you so much!! 😃❤️
@@SrishCreates pro tip: saturation layer tends to not give accurate values, it's better to use a color layer :)
I think you nailed it as a study and I'm sure you learned a lot
Thank you, I really really did!!
J.C Leyendecker is my idol!
Viva illustration!!!!
Thank you so much for this, it is the first of your videos I have seen. Now looking forward to the others. I really appreciate the thought and effort put in to making it.
Ahh thank you! I'm so happy you enjoyed it, and hope you enjoy the rest of the series also! 😄
I want to say WOW. I learned so much from this video, I really appreciate you putting this information out there for free. And your study looked absolutely wonderful!
Aw thank you!! I'm so happy it was helpful! 😄
Ahhh I was so looking forward to this and boy did it deliver!!
Awww thank you! I'm so glad to hear that! ❤️
Great as always, you inspire me to be a better artist every time I see your videos. I think its great you introduce us to other amazing artists. Please keep it up!
Ahhhh thank you so much, that is a huge compliment! 😭😭😭
This is exactly I needed. Thanks for this analysis. I want to do a leyendecker study but didn’t know how to approach it. Your videos are always my favorite
Aw thank you so much, I'm so so happy it helped! 😄
I'm taking notes and screen shots
Really well done study! Thank you for not making it look easy. I appreciated seeing not just the final study but the video of the whole process. As for the style label, I would not consider his work neither Art Nuovo nor Art Deco - just the wider label of “Illustrative”.
Ahh thank you so much! I always like to share the reality of painting these studies cause man it is not easy 😂 i do like the label of "illustrative", definitely a catch-all term!
The gaze
Not the gays ❤🧡💛💚💙💜 LOL
Always the gays 🏳️🌈🏳️🌈🏳️🌈🏳️🌈🏳️🌈
Leyendecker should be thanking me. The only reason he was able to come up with the whole idea of turning the male physique into a sex symbol was because I ran into him one day and I gave him the finger guns greeting as we passed in the street. I deserve royalties, damn it!
I've always liked Leyendecker's work, but never knew who he was. His Saturday Evening Post works were brilliant (only Rockwell surpassed him on those). But I have to confess, he's not my favourite from the time. I'm an unabashed John Waterhouse and an Edmond Leighton (especially the latter) fan of the artists from back then.
Honestly I would pay such good money to see that happen in real time, to see finger guns be the inspiration behind his career ahahaha!
Ahhhh Waterhouse is up there as one of my faves too! There is so much inspiration to be had from art history, it's unreal!!
What materials did he used?
