Many painting demonstrations rightly point out the importance of values in colour. However his demonstration goes further and succinctly describes the importance of temperature as a crucial element of painting extracted from just 5 base colours.. Another crucial aspect of the painters technique not mentioned but observed, is the constant cleaning of his brushes with paper towels to ensure that his values and temperatures remain constant with every carefully considered brush stroke, this ensures that the painting won't get "muddy", a constant problem for many beginners. Also note that Dennis barely mentioned "roses" or " petals" in his vocabulary , this is because he is not painting roses or petals, he is painting shapes and relationships. this state of mind is summed up at 1:13:00 when a member of the audience tried to point out that a variety of one rose was harder to paint, his reply was priceless : "..only if you think of them as roses....it will intimidate you...stay in the abstract world where there are no names, no definitions or beauty, it's just there ... when you are in the abstract world everything is the same and it's just easier to paint from that place". This video was captivating to watch.

Finding Dennis demos on You Tube was my winning lottery ticket! Watching him painting it was a royal treat! Thank you Dennis! Mihaela

"...if our minds are quiet and our hearts are soft, it’s secrets will be revealed." So inspired! Great show.

Thank you for sharing this video with the rest of us! One of the best rose painting demonstrations I have ever seen on KZfaq ❤️

Sherrie McGraw said that if you think each time, before you make your mark/stroke on the canvas, you will improve greatly as an artist. We saw that beautifully demonstrated in this excellent demo!!

I would have appreciated seeing the object/s he was painting while he was painting.

He will never be forgotten. His art is legendary.

I ve been painting a long time. Studied at the art students league years ago. I got so much out of Dennis Perrin's Rose painting demonstration. I painted along while watching. Thank you so much.. All the best.

Such a privilege to watch Mr Perrin. Thank you!

what a gem to see this great artist share his knowledge - the surrounding noise its what it is. many times artists joke and laugh while working - its all fun no interruption

Watching Dennis Perrin paint never gets old; fabulous demonstration, sir 👏🤩!

I am trying to learn how to paint floral in a classical way - this is Gold !!!! Thank you so much for the video and demonstration 💕

Thank you for uploading this.

What a generous demonstration. A beautiful painting and an interesting palette. Thank you from NZ.

Thank you for sharing this video. I’m inspired!

That was so good!!!! Thank you!

Thank you for posting this! I love Dennis Perrin's work and am super excited to watch this demonstration.

Wonderfull process to watch - and I am excited that you show that Winsor Newton water soluble paint and water soluble painting medium - can be so beautifull to work with - and a wonderfull palet that is shown in a phantastic way showing the importance of values, temperature - and the power of brushstrokes -

So exciting and riveting to watch each brushstroke! The work with the palette was greatly instructive as well. Thank you so much for the chance to able to watch it!

Thank you for sharing this. It is so valuable for me to express my paintings through words and upload them to the public.

Wow! So beautifully simple.. for you!

Maravilloso!

Palette colours : Cad yellow light , titanium white , cad. Red med. cad red dark , Ali’z crimson, cerulean blue , cobalt blue , ivory black , viridian green ( uses ultra marine blue to darken colours , not black ). Short flats and filberts and cheraz

Great great great video….added bonus fab conversation and no music ❤

Fascinating use of green in different values and temperature and injecting it into waarm and cool reds

thanks for this video, i enjoy it a fwd much but still, i love the value map that he mentions at the begging, break a leg all! enjoy your painting

Thank you!❤

Amazing!

Excellent demonstration by a fantastic artist I only had basically one question to ask about his values and he explained that early on in the demo. Sure was disrupting the same woman in the background asking so many petty questions.

the best artist drawing roses 🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹

Bravissimo!

Thanks 🙏❤️.

The lighting on the canvas went too dark about halfway through plus camera person never showed set up. No reflection on Dennis Perrin’s talent. He was fantastic.

I wish we could also see the subject he was painting, so we get a better idea of how he is tackling things on the fly. To only see the stages of progress (without a finished idea of what it's going to look like), I get that syndrome where I can only see the strokes, not the whole picture of what it's aiming for. Just a tip!

Great video!

Lei è un grande maestro ❤

👍👍👍

I missed The series of brushes you were using.Would do you use the same brushes In oil paints that were not water-soluble? Rosemary and co, what series?

What brand of paper towels are you using?

What brand of jam do you buy for your jam jars?

Really interesting but would like to see the source material.

When you’re filming a demonstration always take a pic of the subject. Otherwise there no frame of reference to see how he’s interpreting.

Are those synthetic brushes?

You seemed to clean your brushes in between in a glass of water? And then dried the brush in a paper towel - Is that also what you do when you have finished painting for the Day?

Gorgeous! But way too difficult for a beginner like me.

Would be good if we saw the picture while he painted it. You can do a little window of it.

Why can I only see your palette and not your painting?

Does anyone know what Dennis' painting medium is? I sure would like to try it.

I found it disgusting that a demonstration by a great artist was disrupted by noise in the audience, indifferent and disrespectful people with no understanding of the value of what they were watching, it was so disappointing that this artist wasn’t honoured for his valuable teaching, I hope to see him again in a better setting.

Много лишних движений.
