I am an artist living and working in France. I learned the techniques of the Atelier of the Nineteenth century and now I try to share some of my knowledge with the rest of the world, because I think that beauty still has an important role to play in artistic creation. I do mostly drawing and oil painting, and my goal is always to provide techniques, thoughts and explanations that can be useful to anyone, from beginners to more advanced artists.

Thanks for watching !
painting is hard
It's all in practice!
Sir... you are both an incredible painter and instructer! Thank you for sharing your Gift, Talent and Knowledge with the world. God Bless!
I’m a photorealism graphite/color pencil artist, and you sir have been motivating me to want to start oil painting! Hopefully it’ll be a easy transition
Thanks Florent, for helping us with your knowledge and making this world a better place
Very good advice. It was clever to show the wrong X one first, so helpful. Thanks
Great advice for beginners! Something I see in a lot of novice work is eyes that are too big. We look at people's eyes so much that our minds exaggerate them. Focusing on form as defined by the shadows is probably the most important skill I learned as an artist.
This is one of the best advice of how to paint realistic eyes- thank you for sharing generously !❤️
Yay! Thank you Florent! Always learning so much from you 🎨
I love your excellent tuition,. I love to hear it in your smooth, calm, suave and unique speaking voice.
Very interesting approach. 🙏
Thank you for this tutorial I have been trying to do portraits and start off ok then loose the features as I go along, so your process will help me to not keep making the same mistakes again and again. Thank you. I hope you might be able to do one on noses, as they are harder for me. I appreciate your wonderful educational videos
Florent is always a terrific art professor!!!
Amazing content again! Do you have a video on that stick you use for arm support?
Great video Florent! Thank you!
Thank you, very helpful!
Just bloody great... thanks
Hola, excelente! gracias por enseñar y compartir!
Thanks for sharing your acknowledge! You are a great artist! I recently started watching your videos and It's helping me a lot with my portraits paintings. still long way to go but still practicing every day! Once again thank you very much!
So informative Thankyou ♥️
Great video, Florent!
Fabulous
At this point of My game, I was happy with the first one, but I definitely know what you are saying. Thank You God Bless Everyone
This was immensely helpful. I haven't even watched the third section and already I was able to figure out why my eyes looked cartoonish and weird when I wasn't trying for it--i wasn't painting the mass around the lids/lashes, which turned out to be more important to looking right than the actual "eye" as we tend to think of it, which o got from section 2. And, just as you said, it was easier to get proportionate eyes once I had those shapes. I feel like the tendency of beginners to paint eyes too large is probably their brain trying to reconcile them not noticing those shapes.
Great video Florent and so informative, Thank you!!
Great video
Nossa! Lindíssimo
awasom video and great atrist sharing a great tips an advisies
Yes this is a real mathod . good job.
Nice vid bro loved it🔥
Sir i really love those lines -3:25 people usually keep on telling me but i give it a damn... But then after I heard this same thing from you.. so I decided that now onwards I'll obey the way of your painting😌✨
تسلم ايدك يا فنان
interested in the training course because just Florent's videos on yt have helped immensely, but I am acrylic painter (trying to be!) and don't use oil paints.
would this course still be recommended for someone like me? or only for oil painting?
thanks in advance.
Tq❤❤
Great👍👍
Thank you 👍
Thanks so much. I really hope nose is next haha, noses destroy my drawings and paintings. I just don't know how to approach it. 🙏
Hi sir!! I find one of the biggest issues I have with painting or drawing is my shaky hands, I see you have a thing you can rest your hand on, what is it? I’m not sure how you lay it so it doesn’t rest in the paint or bonk you head, which I’m sure I would achieve both😅 sincerely, shaky hands
What is the cost of your instructional course?is it in form of DVD?
Please share a portrait with white and black colour
Will this technique work on the right eye?
I think it depends on what style you are going for. Both eyes look great. First more stylised and bold. Second more subtle.
I agree. Dos and don'ts about aesthetics are almost always relative. It depends from what you want to.achieve / express..
👏🖤
