Painting a Master Copy after John Singer Sargent
Фильм және анимация
A study after Sargent's portrait of John Ridgely Carter. This portrait interested me because of the range of skin tones that create the forms of the head. I wasn't quite able to get the effect but it was fun trying to search for all the various hues in the original. Thanks for watching and please subscribe and share if you enjoyed the video.

This was incredibly helpful, I wish there had been a voice with it, describing the procedure. I have been a soldier for 30 years, now disabled from combat, along with my 31-year professions of Art Therapy and teaching public school art. I have always needed extra help in my paintings, struggling to work with colors and values since I am color-blind. My redgreen range color-blindness has always caused me problems. Thank you for your incredible teaching videos, MSG Leum
Absolutely stunning. I see you went with the creative interpretation instead of the boring photo.
So beautifully rendered... thank you for sharing
Interesting project. The flow of the work was very instructive.
Outstanding - thank you so much, I learned so much watching your courage in changing the eyeball that seemed perfect before you changed it! But was, of course, more perfect after.

Thank you w brown, glad you enjoyed it:)
Bravo!!! Thank you for the excellent demo. I particularly enjoyed the loose brushwork in the beginning. So impressive!
Thank you for sharing your technique, it has taught me so much.
As a portrait artist,i learned more from studying Sargent than any other artist.Great video.
Actually Sargent did not accept that he was impressionist, but to tell the truth he was a magician.
Truly appreciate 🙏, it's awesome
This so amazing, I have so much to learn, beginning with internalizing the understanding and utilization of the planes in the face and the lights' impact on the value changes,and thank you, MSG Leum

Fabulous!!!
thank you for sharing this.
Your color mixing skills are top notch. This would be really difficult to impossible to pull off without them. I have a long way to go to get to that level of color mixing ability. Right now, I'm getting fairly comfortable with the Zorn palette. Keeping it simple for now. Kudos! 👍
What I would give too just sit and quietly watch you paint. It would be incredible. Like seeing an exciting concert in person.
Great!! Starting with no sketch takes real confidence. John Singer Sargent is the best of the best. You captured it
Your knowledge and confidence is outstanding. 👍 This is one of the BEST video for art, it could be number one if your can add your voice with instructions. Thank you so much for sharing 😍😍
This is really helpful, thank you.
Very edifying. thanks.
Amazing copy
I just found your channel, this is great, thank you!

Wow! What an awesome painting. Would you mind posting the links to the brushes you use? I need to buy some good quality brushes without breaking the bank and I was hoping I could take a look at what you use. Thank you for sharing your amazing talent with us.

Thanks again:)These brushes did nearly bankrupt me so I can’t recommend them haha. Any brushes that aren’t the absolute cheapest will work well in my experience.
Great work 🙌 Replace the small brush work with a bigger brush and envoke bruvera.
Ha, love the channel name...a shoutout to ODB
Well done. I bet if you continued refining your work, you'd get even closer to the original.
Nice demo... what is the use of lead white in the portrait... Please 🙏

Thanks. Lead white dries a little quicker and tints colors less than titanium. Not necessary but sometimes is a good option.
Amazing work. Do you use odourless mineral spirits at the start to make it loose or lots of linseed oil?

Si. Y poi que no? Muchos los usan para no contaminarse con los productos nocivos de algunas pinturas.

Surely if you used a smaller brush in certain areas you wouldn’t have to keep making corrections
Great likeness, early on it could've gone all Freddie Mercury.

This is amazing video ! But can you add music next video ,please🙏
Can I suggest to add some music to make the video more relaxing?
Dry painting, no med.
please the time lapse versions really suck, some of us actually have the ability to watch you paint this thing for 5 hours, looking at the beauty of stroke by stroke. could you kindly consider people like me next time
“Master copy”? Cmon that’s a bit self-inflating, doncha think?
Not bad, but still a long way from a copy. deceptive title.
They say that Sargent dearly loved the song "Despacito", and used to hum it often while he painted.
