    Definitely keep making these videos!!! I love brief analyses like this, it really helps me with the structure of the painting. Sometimes I go “why did he paint it like that” and just don’t get a well defined answer. Very informative & helpful, thank you ❤

  • @gor764
    @gor764 Před 16 dny +16

    This is something I've learned over the years. If I'm using a reference image, there's a point where I need to drop using it and go off of pure imagination or else I become too stiff and robotic trying to copy everything perfectly.

  • @stevenjohnson7086
    @stevenjohnson7086 Před 18 dny +14

    I really like how you used a slight change in warmth to make the scene much more pleasing without altering the reality of the landscape

  • @william5159
    @william5159 Před 13 dny +7

    Also good for everyone to know that photos do not reference the subject correctly. Lights and darks are always more extreme in photos. Colors never capture what the eye can capture either. Good video!

  • @davidhorn4975
    @davidhorn4975 Před 14 dny +8

    This format is extremely helpful! I vote “YES” to more of this approach. Thank you!

  • @lydiadeetzz999
    @lydiadeetzz999 Před 18 dny +12

    This is such an important topic that nobody really ever talks about, Thanks Coach!! I feel like this is a really specific thing that holds my work back a lot! Not trusting myself to make decisions, and make them confidently. And that lack of confidence to make decisions shows up most in my brushwork. Like I was "guessing" my way through with anything I wasn't sure of, even though I technically knew what to do. Simplification is my biggest weakness.
    This was so helpful to me, these videos are Invaluable. This applies to everything you paint I think, I can translate this directly to the problems I'm having in my portraits. Thanks Coach, this is why you are THE BEST

  • @susanfindell6154
    @susanfindell6154 Před 18 dny +19

    Yes! Continue with this style of video!

  • @ileanakreus2167
    @ileanakreus2167 Před 18 dny +7

    Although I mainly work with acrylics, I'm diversifying into oils, oil pastels, colored pencils, and watercolors. I appreciate this tutorial method because its instruction is medium-neutral and fundamental. You sought my opinion, and I appreciate your revised format.

  • @shannonmay6300
    @shannonmay6300 Před 17 dny +4

    Not that I didn’t like your other videos (I watch them pretty consistently) but this style of format gives such clarity from a bigger picture on process, showing the reference pic along side 4 stages of the painting in progress. I felt I got more out of it. Thanks!

  • @artlover4ever974
    @artlover4ever974 Před 16 dny +9

    Yes!!! Please keep making these types of videos!!! It helps so much to learn the "why" of decision making when creating art from a reference!! Thank you!

  • @pambeals3254
    @pambeals3254 Před 11 dny +1

    Very helpful analytics! Nice to know a painting is not a “forgone conclusion” based on the photo-more of a guide and inspiration! Thanks!

  • @Kristina-rt1ty
    @Kristina-rt1ty Před 18 dny +3

    I’ve taken many art classes and you convinced me to start oils and I’m signed up for paint week and signing up for your courses. You’re a great teacher and communicator, thank you!

  • @crystalferguson8038
    @crystalferguson8038 Před 18 dny +2

    Absolutely make more of these videos, please! I struggle with simplification and choosing focal points, so this was really instructive and helpful. Thank you!

  • @brendahill5087
    @brendahill5087 Před 18 dny +3

    No. this is a good exercise. I like seeing the four stages of the painting and hearing how you decided what to include or exclude. I get lost in detail and need constant reminders to simplify. Please do more of these.

  • @e.m.tanner179
    @e.m.tanner179 Před 13 dny +1

    Chris is an excellent teacher. I only wish I had this type of technical guidance when I was an art student - many, many years ago. Thank you so much for all these valuable lessons!

  • @Vextra1701

  • @SczerinaPerot
    @SczerinaPerot Před 12 dny

    Incredibly helpful, you changed the colors from the photo, *sky from blue to purple, foreground from gray to yellow orange… please keep walking us through with freeze frames, very helpful.

  • @thirdfrau4885
    @thirdfrau4885 Před 11 dny

    Chris, you're a great teacher. I love your process and how you explain the decisions you make as you go along. It's so helpful!

  • @IndoMim-p3p

  • @jefferyvidrine4983
    @jefferyvidrine4983 Před 11 dny

    Like this format. Breaking the painting down into areas give an insight into what you’re thinking.

  • @sonsonnysonic
    @sonsonnysonic Před 17 dny +1

    Thank you Chris, I found this video to be very helpful for me. I’ve been struggling quite a bit with copying everything from reference photos and this helped clear things up for me. Cheers.

  • @dinoeno5364
    @dinoeno5364 Před 17 dny +1

    Excellent video! More of these please. You are great, you have helped me in my painting probably more than any other teacher. Thank you.

  • @nicohillary3517
    @nicohillary3517 Před 17 dny +2

    Interesting advice about average values/lightness and making things a little darker than you might imagine.
    There's a parallel in photography where it's always preferable to underexpose. That way the information is there and it's much easier to bring it out during processing. If you overexpose, you leave yourself nowhere to go.

  • @jcarolblair5614
    @jcarolblair5614 Před 14 dny +1

    I really, really like this tutorial! You’ve explained clearly the composition decisions that make or break a good painting. I needed this 👍🏼!

  • @annmarie3520
    @annmarie3520 Před 15 dny +2

    The painting is so much nicer than reference.❤

  • @taniamartin6978
    @taniamartin6978 Před 18 dny +3

    Yup! I stumbled upon this video and was just the ticket! Very good!

  • @donwoolley1811
    @donwoolley1811 Před 15 dny +1

    Thanks to you I have been working the concept that "you have to make some decisions" for awhile. I think it was especially spot on for me because my paintings are mostly special interest cars, shooting for photo realism. I had been avoiding landscape backgrounds . Then I signed up for your Landscape painting course and I'm happy with my improvements.

  • @NickyAspey
    @NickyAspey Před 17 dny

    I'm so grateful for every video you post here because they are all super helpful and practical. I've recently finished your landscape course, after doing the fundamentals of oil painting and will be joining paint week for the second time! Thank you so much and love this video format, will paint that landscape tomorrow to practice!

    The last landscape I did. Was last weekend.
    It was better after I scraped it all off. That made me feel great.
    This week I did two paintings, both not the worst thing but last week’s sure did suck

  • @sky2333
    @sky2333 Před 18 dny +1

    definitely make more of these! I really enjoyed it

  • @Jos-P
    @Jos-P Před 18 dny

    This was a big help, thanks. Those first steps are the ones which often confuse me, and stop me from progressing. This made lots of sense, and will make me stop and think next time I am painting. More like this? Yes please :)
    oooo, and I just signed up for Paint Week. Yay. I'm not on Facebook though. Looking forward to that! :)

  • @clairejarts
    @clairejarts Před 18 dny

    Yes! Really loved it, this was very concise, clear and useful. I’ve had to step away from my paints for a few months, but looking forward to jumping back in with paint week and the Patreon tutorials I’ve let slip by. Thanks Chris, you’re an excellent teacher!

      @@paintcoach You are not only very welcome, but I'm thinking to try your mid-September coaching, too. Because oil painting is a life-long study, I've avoided painting, but seeing this work and the simplicity of your approach gives me an inspiration to try again.

  • @richardcullingworth4093

    Very useful thanks. Understanding why you make a specific decision is so important. Applying a learned mechanical approach does not work when the subject changes, as it invariably does painting to painting.
