I take you through an exercise to help you become more loose with their painting style. It all comes down to placing a stroke and leaving it alone, doing so will train you to paint more loosely and avoid being so tight.

So I found the photo you used for reference online, and gave this exercise a try for myself. It was invigorating! I have never painted anything in oil, start to finish in one sitting! And it only took me about an hour and a half, which blows my mind. I didn't count my strokes, but I was definitely more loose than how I usually paint. Absolutely fantastic experience, I am going to do it again for sure! Thank you Michael.

There really is a beauty to loose painting. I often find it more alluring compared to a full rendered painting. Loose gesture like painting adds a quality that changes what you see in life unlike Photorealism where it is what it is and doesn’t truly change or alter the physical world. In art you should always strive to alter the physics world.

Very fine tutorial and itreally puts value to painting as a bodily feeling of each stroke as a touch and as a specific movement - it seems to make the painting look very vibrating - beautifull, raw style of painting. By the way do you ever use Gamblins gel medium? And did you sketch with charcoal? And if do you then spray it before painting to avoid smudging the color ?

@MichaelKingArt 3 жыл бұрын
Great question. One could make a goal of the number of strokes if they want but I did not. The idea isn’t so much to get you counting strokes but to make you conscious of the strokes you are putting down. Making every decision deliberate to avoid just slapping on paint and blending it to death. It is an exercise in control to get away from fine details and just putting down what’s is needed. Hope that clarifies.

Without seeing your charcoal sketch I would have to say it may be too heavy handed and really embeded into the canvas. That reminds me, I am working on board as well which is smoother and doesn’t hold charcoal as strongly. That said, I would suggest soft vine charcoal for sketching. It is softer and more powdery. Also, keep a light touch. Hope this helps you out.

@@MichaelKingArt Thanks! I used cloth canvas so that was prob why. What is the best way to combat the charcoal showing? So far, I just paint over the warm colors with opaque white and hope for it to dry before reapplying the colors. But idk if that would work or the white would mix and create chalky colors.
@MichaelKingArt
@MichaelKingArt 2 ай бұрын
@LittleMew133 After the charcoal I’d suggest blowing or gently wiping off excess charcoal. If you are dealing with it already, letting the paint dry first is a good solution. If working on a new piece you could try smushing the paint into it as you paint to get it to come loose and mix with the paint.

+peta williams Some painters can't just put a stroke of paint down and leave it, they have to fuss with it and make muck instead. To paint looser I find it works best if students lay a stoke down and count it, mentally forcing them not to go over it again and lose its freshness. So, it isn't really about counting strokes for the sake of counting but counting for the sake of control.

If I’m not mistaken this is only an excessive to “practice” intentional brush strokes for the sake of progressing in a looser style. I don’t think Michaelknightart is suggesting we count every brush stroke of every painting we ever do. I use this exercise often to set my subconscious into a loose mood, not for my daily commissions. Thanks for this reminder Michael!

You’re missing the point. Of course you don’t count each stroke. 😱

Weird statement as I have nothing to sell to the audience that watch these videos. It’s an early video, I’m not a professional video maker, things get missed. Things to learn. It’s been addressed. Not remaking the video.

You didn’t paint the background. Can’t be bothered ? Too many strokes. Why paint at all. Too much work,time , effort, can’t afford the extra paint. Just write ….with pencil … plum on the support and you’re done , with minimal strokes. Don’t even have to get your brushes dirty .

There is no plum in nature that even approximates the violet color on the left side of the plum; it’s practically electric blue. When painting loose, natural color and accurate color mixing become essential. This video completely misses the mark; the underlying assumption that you can demonstrate loose brushwork when the subject is devoid of any relation to nature is absurd.

Painting loose is partly about abstractions and making deliberate design decisions when it comes to colour and brushwork . If you wanna paint more abstract you need to take a step from your reference, find what you want to emphasise or even exaggerate and whatt you want to simplify or leave out. Colour is a highly subjective thing and a lot of great painters distorted colours to get their artistic vision to the canvas. How you filter and interpret the thing you experience and commucate it to others is what makes you a painter and not a copy machine. Colour mixing and picking the right colours and values to communicate your experience is important but they don't have to be "natural" for the painting to be good.
