Dedicated to teaching you the skills needed to draw and paint successfully.

Hey! I'm Don Stewart. You'll notice that I produced a lot of the videos here on the ArtistChronicle channel in 2009 to 2013. Where have I been? Well, in 2013 my priority became getting better at teaching offline. But now, in 2020, I'm online again! With renewed zeal and dedication to providing quality how to draw and how to paint video lessons!

So, whether you watch the latest (two so far with more coming soon) or videos from a decade ago, I genuinely hope you find them all to be informative - and any kookiness to be entertaining. Hey, learning should be fun! You remember more :)

    Or a tip that the rest of the world already knows…. Use the millimetre side of the ruler and divide by whatever number of squares. Much easier and more accurate than the inches side…..

    Videos like this are confusing, they never show what they claim in a headline. It should say (for beginners from Hobby Amateur Artist)

    You talked about symmetry, but I've noticed that most faces, (except for very attractive ones) are not symmetrical. When you are doing a portrait, do you try to "symmetricize" a person's face?

    Bonus tip: when you looks at a person's hair, see it as broccoli.

    I've always thought that thinning a paint as much as you recommend would leave the pigment without enough binder. I sort of imagine it to be like getting the powdered pigment, mixing it with water, and rubbing it on the ground. After the water dries it would create powder layer that would separate the oil paint from the ground, so it wouldn't stick to the canvas. What do you think?

    hello. I am a student who started oil painting for about 3 months. I was reading an article about blocking and was curious, so I would like to ask a question. What oil should I use when blocking? I searched through numerous videos and articles, but couldn't find it. The two oils I have on hand are flaxseed oil and gamsol. (Please understand that I am not good at English, so I am using Google Translator)

    This is an amazing explanation (best i have seen). I need to know it this works the same for oil painting and if i have sketching on the canvas using graphite pencil will the toning remove the sketching on the white canvas?? Thank u so much.
