Your girlfriend is a beautiful young woman. Honestly, I thought she looked awesome with the wig on. The light colored hair really made her even more striking!!!! What a wonderful painting. I envy your ability to paint portraits. Dude. all your work is stellar!!!

These are both amazing paintings, I also appreciate that your gf can be completely honest with you on her feelings and thoughts about the painting; these moments help us learn from another’s perspective and feedback, which is important to be open to, especially if the piece is for a client.

Knowing how much time it all takes - painting, filming, editing, it is just so impressive how consistently you upload. Another great video and painting my man!

Its so cool seeing the “last” small details just doing so much.

I love how passionate you are about the process and creating and what not. 😋 The painting came out beautifully!!

I am a huge nerd and love costumes and stuff so personally I thought the portrait with the wig was gorgeously rendered and frankly sexy AF. I'm more of a fluid artist myself which requires zero realism, so this type of stuff is super impressive to me. I think both portraits were incredible, but the wig was hands down my favorite.

In the 5 years I have been following you, your portraits have been good. Some of your self portraits being ones I loved the most. BUT, this portrait is the best in terms of not only skin tones, and clean lines. It also is the most exact portrait you’ve ever done! You should be proud. If this is where you are going with your work, you are well underway! I’ve been painting for many years, and still struggle with technique,likeness, and many other things that I can’t seem to grasp, but I keep trying! I love what you do, and love how you have come so far in a short time. ❤❤

I think the portrait turned out beautiful! The lighting and the purple and red color combination looks fantastic. Well done!

Loved the painting mate! Congrats on the portrait painting course launch as well 🕺🕺🎨

there’s no angle where she looks bad, she’s an angel. all respect

Good video man. Your painting skills never cease to impress me!

🤩 the colors are popping!

amazing work as always

Amazing portraits, I love the pink wig! You have improved so much. Videos are awesome and everything about your studio is any artist dream.

It’s so fun to watch you learn and practice! I’m feeling inspired to paint now 🤘🏼

I am enjoying the muse and the process of your work is epic.

love this portrait!!, this is yet your best portrait!!!!

Your work just gets better and better I always e joy seeing your work

It came out beautifully!

She's beautiful and so is the painting! I love the purple! The natural one is also really beautiful!

Both paintings turn out great!! 👍👌

Both paintings turned out great! fun vid! and smart move on the in-depth package!

That paint palate table is such a dream, btw great paintings i think theyre both my favourites just for their sperate reasons

Nothing is more valuable than a partner who is honest. I liked both the paintings, and while a hardcore traditionalist, like the purple one better!

I love both of these paintings. I know she does’t like the wig but I think it is absolute FIRE!!! I love the hot pink light highlight on the left side and how the wig highlight looked like a silvery white. I love all high chromas.

Classic Slew video. Great work. 👍

I believe she z the best for u . For not deceiving you. She wants the best for u. That why she z honest with her thought. And i hope u love her for bn real. Well done

I enjoyed seeing you try different lighting during the photo sessions. Your process was very interesting. I gravitated more toward the naturalistic portrait, but I love that you did the high chroma/saturation version. Maybe next time you can try a hybrid where there is just a high croma accent in the hair and/or costuming. For some odd reason, I think of the character Quorra from Tron Legacy as a potential inspiration for that approach. Props to Tori for being a great sport through the process. Oh, and the editing and voiceover work was very good.

The wig reminds me of an episode from my babysitter’s a vampire. Nostalgia.

Love, love it!!

I like to do the Reflecting effects on my Canvas , but your Reflecting is great , sir

Your girlfriend is so gorgeous. And both paintings of her are wonderful. I love the purple hair painting best. Thanks for sharing.

That background painting is WILD.

The portrait turned out crazy

both are a very good likeness of her 😀i prefer the purple one, just because I like when paintings are not your traditional colours 😀

I like the wig. It kinda separates it from other portraits. It makes it stand out I guess. IDK. I just like it. Good work Slew. 😎

hey slew like always i like your paintings what a beautiful painting you did of your girlfriend she is really pretty you drew her lovely you are a talented smart artist always coming up with great art ideas good job i love your art I’m so proud of you i will always support you slew 😊

Délicieux ! Thank you for sharing this time capsule 💜

Both the paintings looks superb.. Even I liked the natural looking portrait more😄 You really have mastered the art of realistic portrait painting. Seen your progress. Great job in this one. One good reason I feel might be because it’s your girlfriend’s portrait 😄😄 haha but truly loved the paintings and yes she is very pretty 💕

Great paintings. Probably lean toward the natural one too but they both rock

Aww...you two are adorable. Hi Tori! Gonna be honest, I prefer the natural one. I think it's a better likeness and the hair color works better in close up. That said...the lilac wig with white outfit and background was kinda striking! Might be better in a sort of full-body, cosplay, cyberpunk like portrait.

Bro u got Mona Lisa. Love u both god bless you ❤

Super dope my dude!! Ive tried doing my girlfriend a few times, and this motivates me to try some more! Always with the heaters Slew!!!

amazing video

Good video! I enjoy the photography talk. Wish I didn't get stressed when I paint lol I think it would be fun

0:39 on beat was dope editing

Beautiful woman and painting

Both paintings turned out great. ❤ I loved the glazing technique. Idk exactly where it's s from, but her accent is so cute 🥺

Nice!

I like how your girlfriend is plugging TenHun there. Nice choice of shirt!

Does Ethan Becker know you have his knifecrophone? 😉 Great video, btw.

💙that gurlie be wearin' a 10hundy merch, yarrrgh! #PiratesDigSkully

Well, if it works out then it works out. If it doesn't, oh well... Your first love is on the tip of your brush. Something even mine can't understand..

Where do you get your bracelets?

She killed that purple/silver wig tbh

Her reaction is a bit weird. I thought the painting was really well done, and the wig was a great addition to the painting. You are a surgeon with oil paint. Good for you man.

🎶"Y'ALL LOOK LIKE SOMEBODY THAT I USED TO KNOOOOOOOW!!!"🎶

Question: why paint the photo? Why not just frame the photo? This goes with seascapes, pet portraits etc etc

Your girlfriend in the wig looks amazing

She reminds me of Natalie Portman in Closer.

I liked the purple wig portrait much better than the natural portrait. I hate to be rude - but brown hair is just blah and purple hair is a pop of colour that makes the whole painting pop!!!

Oh wow uh she did not hold back lol

The wig is kinda 🔥 tho

Yeeeea your girlfriends a vibe🤣,,,, marry her bro

Your girlfriend is wearing a tenhundred shirt!! I like the more natural painting better. I thin the bright lilac wig is too cool for her skin tones. 😊

Love both paintings! Great job!!! Next time, let your gf choose the costume/wig she wants to wear!

Wish the room was a little colder

Your girlfriend was also the one in your video with the guy that draws people on the street as a "random stranger" Odd that...

Damn your gf is really beautiful ❤

you guys are cute

Your girlfriend is very pretty! But, I agree with her and like the more realistic portrait better, also. That said, the one in the wig definitely screams "Slew" style to me. Both are great works though!

Why give her a green eye? They’re so pretty blue!

The lesson here is that when you paint your girlfriend, be sure to use 100% hypoallergenic and edible paints. 🤣 BTW, teaching your wife/girlfriend how to ride a motorcycle or shoot a gun is also a job best left to others. And no, don't ask me how I know...

this is my ex dude

Bro added 10 yrs to his girlfriend. Never coddle artists - be honest.

The model is much prettier than her portraits.

🤏

why are you holding your mic like ethan becker, bro?

Dump her bro.Doesn't appreciate art.

Too many mentions of the premium video my man, it gets kind of obnoxious.

First, your girlfriend is pretty, so she follows the standard structure of pretty faces, but in your work you didn't follow the pattern that all painters should know about the proportions of a pretty face. You used a grid, and that's why it doesn't look so good. Grids often distort and fail to render images better than the human eye... photography itself cannot do this, and they often distort even the most beautiful face. The picture when painted like this seems synthetic and does not portray the person or the characteristics, much less the beauty. Advice study more about the structure of beautiful faces, start by painting faces of babies/putty, and young people, you will learn to do this without using techniques like grid and other nonsense

damn I remember subbing when you were at like 10k, youve come so far man 🥲
