/ simplifydrawingandpain...
Most tutorials on painting realistic eyes only focus on how to paint just one eye on its own, but painting one is actually quite straightforward compared to painting both eyes together. By far the most challenging thing to do when painting the eyes, is making sure both eyes are alligned correctly with each other. Not only is it really easy to make the eyes crooked, but there are some other really common art mistakes to avoid. You can also paint the eyes too far apart, too close together, or you can make one eye bigger than the other.
In this portrait painting demonstration, Alex will be showing you how to paint both eyes together and he will be sharing with you the techniques he uses and the artistic anatomy he checks, to help him avoid making these really common art mistakes
Alex Tzavaras is a contemporary realist artist offering portrait painting and alla prima oil painting tutorials. Alex teaches the traditional oil painting techniques artists used to draw and paint from life up until the start of the 20th century.

my eyes are about 4mm different in hight when you look at the corners of the eyes. if I was to paint a self portrait it wouldn't look like me if I didn't offset them, and although more attractive probably definitely not accurate. My eyebrows sit at different heights too. Having an uneven face is extremely common to varying degrees and personally I wonder if these old masters didn't make a mistake but portrayed it actually accurately. As with me if you were to correct this it actually takes away from the likeness.

But I bet the middle of your mouth lines up directly under the bridge of your nose when viewed from the front and your eyes are still approx half way down between the top and bottom of your head? It still helps to know where these centrelines are and their angle, you can deviate from them. Also, your eyes probably aren't as crooked as some people paint them?

Yes, the eyes have a slightly different shape and different sizes, but for the vast majority of people they are still aligned with each other and parallel with the other features, particularly the irises and pupils. Look in a mirror and hold a pencil up to your brow bone, the irises and the corners of you mouth. I've a good mind, for my next video to take stills of all my recent models and draw lines on their face to prove this fact!

I agree, faces are asymmetrical and the eyes have a slightly different shape, but the eyes are still broadly parallel with the other features, eyes, nose, brow bone etc. Look in a mirror, are your eyes as crooked as the Ribera painting? It's very easy to prove, I shall make another video with photos of some of my previous models, and I will draw lines between the eyebrows, the eyes and the corners of their mouths and you will see that they're parallel.
@TimConceivable
@TimConceivable Жыл бұрын
nah, you're probably right. i was sort of playing devil's advocate anyway. i also struggle to make eyes parallel myself, so it's possible that i may also have difficulty telling just how crooked those examples you gave are. it's probably better to make eyes more parallel than they actually are anyway, as that's going to end up with a more attractive result. sorry for the sort of negative comment. your videos are great, keep up the good work!

From my experience with commission work, almost all people have uneven or imbalanced faces. The idealized face is just for a base, a starting point, imo, but to capture the likeness, Ive had to ignore the "rules" to bring a portrait to a finish. Unless ofcourse im painting an idealized or stylized portrait, but again my clients didnt like the result. The imbalance and imperfections, to my surprise early on, plays a huge part in what makes them look like they do, or appear as such, even at the emotional level. Most of my clients may have been so used to looking at their photos that they have developed an intuitive feeling about looking at their image in a still picture.

I agree there are small imbalances in the features, with one eye being slightly bigger than the other etc. But if you look in a mirror and hold a pencil up to your brow bone, the bottom of the eyes and the corners of your mouth, they'll be pretty much parallel with each other. This is why so many artists use centrelines when mapping out the features.

Hey Alex.. I really appreciate your style of narration that helps describe to the viewers what you are focused on as you lay down your brush strokes. For myself, it helps to align my understanding of your perspective and it will be put into use on developing methods for my own paintings. I feel it''s not only important to understand how to paint... it is also important to learn how and why to see, think and feel through the process. THANK YOU!

I like the way the artist reduced contrast, for example the shadow along the nose, and reduced the fullness of the jaw, maintaining the bow of the lips to give her a Renaissance look. Very cool. He also toned down the eyebrows somewhat and increased their distance above the eye. All this is good, and historical, even if he doesn't know he's doing it!

@SIMPLIFYDrawingandPainting Жыл бұрын
Thank you Carlos! The shadows and the eyebrows are actually lighter when you see them with the naked eye, the camera makes them appear darker. If I made the distance between the eyes and the eyebrows too great that wasn't intentional, I did so by mistake.

@@SIMPLIFYDrawingandPainting Oh, thanks for the reply. You bring up another point that artists might not appreciate-- no camera lens is yet as sophisticated as the human eye, and the camera tends to increase the contrast of values. You however, have a very good eye. I hope you keep up some of those "mistakes" which are actually very beautiful bits of artistic license. Some things I've noticed from studying master paintings (Google Art Project is a great resource). Shadows under the chin were very much toned down, even neglected, even in baroque lighting, though the typical ruff hid them a lot of the time. Sargent was not one to tone down a nostril generally, though typically this was done too, often painted very reddish. Eyebrows were often super sophisticated bits of brush magic. Even with your mid century illustrators, eyebrows zigged and zagged with much more life than life. Keep up the good work and keep the videos coming. They're some of the best on KZfaq.

Ribera and Hals painted those eyes correctly and without any error! They were painting human beings. We, all, with not exception, all we are completely asymmetrical. To just prove my point of view, I dare anyone to take a full frontal portrait of your face photo with your phone and do the easy steps in any photo app consisting of select the vertical half of your face, increase that part and post over the contrary side of the photo. You will find why we are done asymmetrical and why the old masters knew the more asymmetrical, the more appealing for the viewer! - - - > ➕ 💰💰💰💰

Alec thank you so much for your sharing your knowledge. I wanted to become an artist when young, but my parents could afford to send me to art classes. Only recently due to disability I had to leave work. This left me time to focus on developing what was left, this happened to be my artistic desire. I’ve never had any formal training and it shows I’m afraid but I have sold a few amateurish attempts of mine through local exhibits.i was comforted to know the m8stakes I was making were the same as the masters. In my last portrait I had noticed the problem with the eyes but wasn’t sure how to prevent it from happening. Then I found your video! The mistakes I was making were the ones you described and Now I know ho to fix them. My next portrait will be much improved I’m certain.

Thanks for the video. I've never sketched out the straight lines for the eyes, eyebrows and mouth, twice, like this. I like the idea, its a good reference to begin with and easy to repeat after its painted over. The way I do it; there's less unity because there is no unifying color underneath the detail. I end up unifying with top, translucent, layers of color. My way works, but I'm going to try it different on my next portrait.

You are a very talented artist and teacher. I've watched this twice and will again. So far I only use watercolors. But your video is full of information that translates across all genres. Thanks!
