“It is quite possible to complete a picture bit by bit in this way. Many of the students in the Ecole des Beaux Arts in my time began their studies from the nude at the head and worked down to the feet without retouching; and such studies, when completed, were often perfect in the relative value of the parts to the whole.” This quote is from “The Practice of Oil Painting and of Drawing as Associated With It” written in 1910 by Solomon J. Solomon. I loved the video and found myself laughing all the way through it!

Of all the painters I've ever studied, you have the method that speaks to me the most clearly. I am envious of your talent and a big fan of your work.

Your paintings are really beautiful. Awesome work on those faces!

This is such a refreshing video, I’ve painted like this for years but so few artists and teachers advise it. Seeing such a master artist work this way has given me renewed confidence and conviction in my own way of working. Thank you!

there are many different ways to approach painting. There is no "right" or "wrong" way, whatever method speaks to you and gives you the results you are looking for is all that matters. Love your work Scott, keep on rocking :-)

I am sooo relieved to hear your message! My brain, my problem solving section, works like your's does. I do graphite portraits your way of finishing as I go and then correcting later as needed. But I want to learn how to do oil portraits now. You have helped me suddenly to understand why that I too get overwhelmed with using other's methods of working all over a painting at once. I have a small amount of ADHD and that might be why, since I hyper-focus on anything I'm interested in doing. I'm soooo relieved after seeing your video. A thousand thank you's friend!!!! You just solved my problem that for a long time has delayed me from painting in oils. Wheeeeeee!

I've been fortunate to live near several well-known artist and take lessons. I always wished I could freeze the lessons so I could go home and paint at my own pace. I feel blessed to have stumbled onto Mr. Waddell's guidance. After watching a few of his youtube videos I went over to his website and found lessons available for download. I can now paint at my own pace. I'm learning so much. His work is beautiful. Thank you!

This was honestly so refreshing because this is the method that I paint by, and for a while I've felt like I've been doing everything wrong in the way that I paint (because I haven't really seen many people paint the way you do). I didn't really know that it was a well-established methodology. Thanks for giving me the validation that I'm not "painting wrong" (and also for assuring me that it's not evil/apocalypse/doomsday that I paint from photo references! xD)

This is such a necessary video!! I’m a self taught painter, then I went to one of those art schools in Europe where they teach you to paint everything at once, when I started painting I did it part by part, and once I started painting like they said I should everything took a lot longer!!! Hate it, now I went back to this style of painting! Listening to a podcast with will St. John he was saying he also paints part by part, and that before the 19th century all paintings were made like this, now everyone thinks they’re sargent lol and that they have to paint like that

@nesrinamin8579 7 ай бұрын

I’m glad you addressed this question, Scott - I often asked myself why you do it. Makes a lot more sense now. I have a similar-ish approach to pencil-sketching faces to get the likeness right. I could start with the nostril and bit by bit have the full face - I feel that it’s wrong but it works for me :)

Great video. I’m just about to start a new painting and I think I’ll try working like this. I’ve done before but felt like I was breaking the rules I learned in art school. When I see your results and learn how it motivated you, it makes perfect sense to give a go.

I enjoy seeing the way you work. I love how you work each form individually to completion before moving on. I was taught to work all over from dark to light, from large forms to small. Thank you for sharing your work. 👍🏻

I’m so glad I found your channel, I can relate to this method. I have just started learning to paint, but I have forever been a coloured pencil artist where I finish as I go, so moving to painting and trying to paint big shapes and working across the entire painting feels so far out of my comfort zone. So thank you for sharing this, it gives me validation that it’s more than ok to paint this way, this is the way that comes naturally to me, and we should paint in the way that comes most natural.

@JeffKernsTheArtist 7 ай бұрын

I have the urge to paint in this fashion but I don't anymore. I work from larger areas to smaller areas and then the details. For me it is much easier and results in better paintings.

Wonderful, this overwhelm you speak of plagues me. Thank you for your unique perspective and sharing your process. I'm really intrigued by the painted areas vs the sketched areas and only painting detail in certain areas to bring them into focus intentionally. Again, thank you so much from a self taught artist working for 45 years ❤ Your work is gorgeous 😍🥰

Hi Scott, I asked this very question on your Instagram page the other day and thus video really helps to answer my question very well. I think I will try some portraits in this manor and see how it goes. Love your content, keep it up, many thanks from Scotland 👍 Neil🎨👏👏👏

Interesting explanation of how you approach your painting, Scott. Your results are always very admirable!

@janet4900 7 ай бұрын

For the most part, I paint bit by bit like you do. But sometimes, if I have brown on my brush, I will want to go and fill in other places that are also brown. Of course, if you do that you lose out on the opportunity to blend your borders because the paint may dry by the time you get back to that area. But basically, I just see blobs of color and light, and paint them without assigning any meaning to them. It's after I step back from the work that I "see" what I have painted. I love your work, and you have really helped me with color mixing. It was the lesson about -if you lighten or darken your color, you are diluting it's chroma, and so you must add some color back in - that helped fix some of my issues. Thank you Scott. I hope you get recognition that you deserve, because you are a wonderful artist.

Maybe just like the way W. Bouguereau did it, you fight inch by inch reaching small victories until you get the whole painting done. As you wisely told, perseverance and patience are the key. Greetings from Dominican Republic. Thank you Master! 🎨😃👍

I do love your painting way very much, and I thank you for your artistic generosity in showing it to all of us. But please, please, could you kindly let us know about one a very important tool of the system: the brush! What brush it is? Please be as specific as possible, eg., size, bristles, brand if possible, Rosemary one? and so on, etc. Obviously, your brush I see you using it is one of the most important things to accomplish the technique. I thank you with all my heart.

One of his videos said he uses Beste golden taklon brushes, a surprisingly inexpensive brush. I bought some filbert ones and really like them.

@arjenbergsma4781 4 ай бұрын

He uses Golden Taklon brushes. Taklon is made of polyester. A lot of synthetic brushes are made of Nylon. So make the difference between those if you want to choose. I heard Scott Wadell say that most of the Taklon brushes are fine. Trekell seem to be high quality. I saw him use Beste golden Taklon ,Utrecht Series 6150 Synthetic Golden. These brown brushes with gold seem to be from Royal & Langnickel Gold (even cheaper than Beste). Also note that Taklon is a synthetic fiber (polyester) and the color denotes the stiffness. Toray is a synthetic carbon fiber and the golden is softer than the white, the white being stiffer. I found a discussion about Taklon and Toray pretty useful though, maybe you will find it usefull as well. Especially the reply from Briantmeyer “Toray Nylon” is a high end product made for use in brushes by a company called Toray of Japan. Toray Nylon is a high end product made for use in brushes by a company called Toray of Japan. This company seems to be a leader in fibers. Nylon mimics silk but has been adapted to replicate sable to varied degrees. Per other threads it’s claimed Toray is carbon fiber. Toray of Japan has purchased the rights to make Taklon from du pont, so Taklon and Toray are both coming from them. Pretty sure Toray Chemical, and Toray of America and the other names used are all sub divisions of the same group. It’s interesting looking at their site, lot of things like fighter jets to kevlar vests are made using their fibers. Teijin is another company which Escoda is using as a name for their fibers." I heard Scott say that he prefers golden Taklon instead of sable brushes, because the hairs of the sable brushes spread too much if a paraphrase it correctly. Hope this helps :)

Thanks for the amazing videos man! I attend an atelier that is very much about the general to specific approach, still, I can see the value of your approach as well, especially when it comes to seeing (and not overseeing) subtle value and colour transitions. I've started developing a kind of hybrid approach in my own paintings, which may give me the best of both worlds or maybe they might just be cancelling each other out lol. I've always been curious about how your approach works with live models, considering all the changing conditions. Do you just have to commit wholeheartedly to your cartoon?
