Hi, I am the son of two artists and began painting in my hometown of Richmond, Virginia before I could walk. I was a rare combination of artist and athlete so I moved to Los Angeles in 2008 to play football for USC. I left the team my sophomore year to focus on painting and filmmaking, applying the same focus and discipline from my football career to my art. I primarily work in oils, and spend most free days painting "en plein air" in my new home of Sarasota Florida.

I think the student’s painting at 13:45 was brilliant. Everything is taken slightly further than yours, but in a way I like. It’s still loose enough, and yet it looks like you could reach out and grab everything. I would certainly consider purchasing something like that.

@scp-09698 2 жыл бұрын

I have to agree, I actually liked the way it looked better but in my opinion, some of the student paintings just seemed more lively.

@gidkideon 2 жыл бұрын

I'm on the fence about each one. I liked how simplified the student's work was, and how the cow seems to have attitude, but I did like the rendering in his as well. I think part of the problem with teaching is trying to give students who are well on their way something extra to take away from the lesson. It's much easier to do when a student is starting out, but later on it becomes more and more subjective vs. objective or personal opinion vs. universally agreed upon as "better".

i prefer the left side too. but his point about the flowers lacking form is a good one. left side they look a bit flat

@mrdaft3272 2 жыл бұрын

He didn't take into consideration that the student painted hydrangeas, while his were another type of flower...it would be a different shape and different values as they are shaped differently. i can clearly tell what type of flower the student painted. That being said, I do think their vase has too many values, and the rest looks better overall than his reference painting. (though the student's grapes do seem to be floating in air...meaning not enough value on the table to show where they lie properly.

Can we talk about how the student’s grapes and orange at 13:20 look hyper realistic? Wow. For the rest of the painting, I feel as though the flowers weren’t hyperrealistic enough actually, and it seemed two different styles of painting occurring from top to bottom. Also the background was very flat black and didn’t have much depth. Overall a lot of strengths in that painting if you’re going for hyperrealism instead of an impressionist piece. Being able to execute a specific style consistently throughout a piece is not an easy task.

@Art_Squirrel 2 жыл бұрын

Agreed, but overall, looking at the two pictures if I had to choose one to be on my wall, I would choose the student's painting.

I wish, in your "persona" as the Paint Coach, you would do an avant-garde piece - which of course as you know is what the artist does over time - video being the perfect format for such a bit of esoteric adventure. Something along the lines of wrestling someone in a large tube of paint costume (pick the color) in a small inflatable pool filled with washable non-toxic colors, all of this done in downtown Sarasota, the media having been alerted before-hand of course. While these instructional videos are helpful, something like that would certainly provide a needed relief and texture.

Chris I have watched all your videos and I am looking forward to your portrait course when it's ready. I wondered if you would do a video on art and its various genres and how the fundamentals are used or sometimes omitted . Basically why and what makes good art. Eg is it absolutely necessary to use the fundamentals to create good art as some genres or artists.ie picasso, van gogh and others sometimes break the rules. What makes good art Chris ? Many thanks scott

Hey, Chris! Any chance that you might do a brief video on how you use PhotoShop to simplify values? I understand how to reduce a photo to black and white to study value, but I cannot seem to figure out how to create the large shapes (like you do) in color so I can look at composition and value in a simple way.

Going back to an older video, Reusing old canvas. I’m an airbrush artist that has been doing some thrift store art. I’ve been lucky and haven’t got an oil painting. Can you recommend a clear that I can shoot over an oil painting as a barrier? Created has their clears which claim to be like a polyurethane? What about clear enamel, epoxy, automotive clears all are oil based?? Any recommendations would be appreciated!! Tom…

I notice you always mix the colours you need as you go along. I've always mixed all the colours I think I'll need before I start painting. I think my way is wrong. What are the benefits of your way? Perhaps you could do a video on managing all aspects of your palate that includes an answer to my question. Thanks.

@crmfineart 2 жыл бұрын

Your way is not wrong at all. There is no specific rule about mixing colours earlier or mid painting. For some painters, certain tonal values pops up in their mind during the painting process and they mix those tones and improvise. Others prepare a certain amount of color tones earlier and this works too! Especially for portraits and bigger works

@merryryely 2 жыл бұрын

I don't think you're wrong. When you premix, you just need to make sure that your premixed colors are right from the start before putting the colors on the canvas. I've seen some artist blur their reference to get the basic color values, then print it out. Cut it up to separate the colors you'll need, then mix the colors according to those cut outs as reference. Personally I have no patience to do all that. But it might help you if you prefer that method.

@loati94 2 жыл бұрын

Many many people pre mix the colors they think they'll use and then they adjust the tones and hues in those pre mixed colors as needed. It's just a different technique nothing wrong with it.

Respectfully, the more of these I watch, the more I firmly start believing that the biggest thing that the students are lacking, is not enough experience really delving into colour theory. You need to really *study* all the properties of your individual paints. Hue, value, chroma, temperature, harmony, and in doing so you will begin to accurately predict what colour is needed (and why it is needed) - as well as how to mix it
