You have worked so hard,preparing this demo for us,thanks so much. ❤❤❤
Haha, thanks a lot! I had fun too, but by the end I was a bit cross-eyed… 😋😂
Nice work, both recreating the process, and seeing it through to a spectacular result!! Makes me want to start playing with mirrors!!
Thanks a lot! To be honest, even if I am happy with the result, I don’t find the mirror technique very practical. Having said that, I was able to learn a lot: for example that flat surfaces are not always even colorwise. The same wall can go from very dark to very light! I guess our eyes tend to correct and smooth things out… 😋
I wonder how Vermeer would have used the tools and art products of today. I imagine how his eye and hand would have transformed the picture. Awesome painting as usual. Thanks
Thanks Robert! Well, you know, I am not sure the tools have changed that much… sure, chemicals have given us safer colors and more mediums with fantastic effects, but you still have a canvas and a brush, in the end…
You make it look easy and this inspires your viewers and encourages them to paint. Great work by a great teacher. Thank you.
Thank you for following my videos, Édouard ! As you know, I am not a teacher, just an enthusiast sharing his experiences ! 😋
Thanks so much for the shout out! You know I'm always consuming your content my friend. Love learning new tricks and techniques and styles to study!! 😁
I really loved that « hippie life » of yours, man! There is plenty to learn out there, very often just by looking at the brushstrokes. Then we can incorporate those in our own styles!
youtube suggested your channel today, and I have watched a few. I enjoy you informative and entertaining format and your breaking down of painting technique. I can't understand why you don't have more views because your videos are very good ( I will tell my friends and family). Jean Charlot went to mexico and here in hawaii and had a lot of impressive murals & paintings it would be interesting if you would do a video delve into his artistry. Aloha.
Aloha! Thanks a lot for your kind words!
Your videos are *so* good at explaining technique. Thanks for that! Now, please, do a Pollack, a Mondrian, and a Kandinsky. ❤
Thanks a lot! And thanks for the suggestions ! Will work on it !
Merci pour la traduction vous êtes très intéressant je vous découvre et donc qq capsules à visionner !!! En amateurE que je suis😊
@@mhevrard3438 merci d’être fidèle au rendez-vous ! Je fais une petite pause pendant l’été, mais recommencerai à poster en septembre. Désolé si mes vidéos sont en anglais: c’est la langue qui m’amène le plus de vues… mais il y’a des sous titres en français sous quelques vidéos… je suis aussi un amateur qui aime partager sa passion et ses expériences
@@mygeekfamilycotton j'ai de quoi intégrer vos vidéos cet été bonne vacances
Bon visionnement ! Et bonnes vacances aussi! 😋
Yessssss!!!! Finally!! ❤
Haha, good things come to those who wait… 😋 thank you for being here!
Please, Mario Sironi! A video of yours on my favorite painter's technique would be wonderful!
Hi Giovanni! I will try to add him to my list! Cheers!
@@mygeekfamilycotton Grazie! 🎩
Fantastic idea 💡 😊
It is a very interesting technique, but I honestly don’t think it is for me. It allows you to create very accurate works, but you lose the « fun of the chase » in trying to make your picture emerge from a blob of paint… 😋
The E in geek fell!
Was wondering if anybody would see… 😂😂😂stay tuned for more marquee Easter eggs😋
I don't quite understand how you can see where to make brushstrokes when you're looking at the mirror. Wouldn't the mirror be in your line of sight blocking the view of a canvas?
Yes, you have to go back and forth to see where the brush stroke is going. Also, just at the edge, you can see how the reality checks with the brushstrokes you already laid on the canvas. It is a long game of comparison between your canvas and the model, which is why I find it very strenuous on the eyes…
Hello, what paper are you using?
Hi Sakura, it is an acid free watercolor paper (300gsm) by Derwent. What I find interesting is the canvas texture on the surface, that can replicate a painting on an actual canvas in linen or cotton.
nicholas de stael was a very interesting artist i wonder if.....
Thanks for the suggestion, Simon!
En francais ?? Merci
@@mhevrard3438 bonjour! Ça ne va pas être facile car il faudrait refaire toute la vidéo… je vais préparer des sous -titres, si ça vous va?
Oui merci
et voila! les sous-titres francais sont dispo! il doit y avoir encore queleue4s erreurs de frappe, mais...:P Merci! a bientot!
If you wish to ever achieve anything meaningful in the realm of art: Never paint like someone else, for you will be ruined.
Hmmmm! Ah . . . it's the other Vermeer you're on about!! Right? Wish you well.
I have fallen in love with you.❤
Much love and peace from London UK ❤
Haha! Thanks a lot for making my wife jealous! 😋
@@mygeekfamilycotton noooo. No intention there . Love to your wife! 🥰
Just joking 😂😋
