I like his information but highly repetative rephrasing the same thing over and over. Almost 9 minutes for the 1st sphere, maybe 2 minutes of information. He crosses his hand across his face gesturing, blocking the camera which isn't aiding to his emphasis. But Scott has a good, easily listenable tone and cadence, and teempo of speech. His commitment and care to covey points is evident.. Definitely worth a thumbs up! 👍

Ok but I expect improvement in background noise, repetitiveness and speed. Not painting speed but rather speeding up slow painting bits and balancing speaking time.

It's very rare that I ever hear someone talk about feeling the form and the type of mental state you have to be in to focus on the work. Often times I ask a few artists or professors about this and they were unable to give me a grasp of it or understanding where to explain the depth of feeling the form. I truly appreciate your explanation of feeling the form.

You killed it! You described it perfectly. I’ve starting painting again after 20 years. I’ve been trying to “catch up” after all that time. This video brings me back to my art college days, but I feel like the older dude in the class that never fit in with the other freshmen… but because he’s more mature, he pays more attention, respects the process, absorbed more and ended up leagues ahead of everyone in the same amount of time. Ok, I’m a little bitter. Anyway, thanks so much for sharing your wisdom. I look forward to watching you more. From a distance. Not in a stalker kinda way.

Another caveat with painting skin tones is to try to paint during the day with as much natural light as possible. Working at night with artificial light can skew our chroma perception and it's very easy to end up with "boiled lobster" skin tones (high chroma) when viewed in the morning!

I do digital painting of my daughter as a hobby and I didn't even realize I was doing type of painting where you lay down blocks. I didn't know that was a legit way to paint with oil, I was just trying to get a color right for different areas of her face. I have one I have worked on once in a blue moon for about two months now. This motivated me to finish it. I have found that in realistic drawings coloring in block ensures I get all the values where they need to be, when I do one blanket color and shade and highlight on that, it never turns out right.

Lots of good suggestions and things to think about! I totally agree with starting with the light points. It's much easier to get to the shadow and realize you need to go dark quicker, than to go from dark to light, get the lightest point and realize that it's not near light enough.

This is a great way to explain this. I’m mostly a watercolor painter now, and we always work light to dark. So, recently, as I’ve tried to get back into oil again, this was how I started back at it. Glad for the confirmation I’m on the right track, and I love your smaller strokes. This method is so refined!

Thank you Scott! You have literally helped my severe frustration with painting from dark to light! I started with watercolours in my art career and was taught to preserve the white canvas and find the light. Painting from the dark and plodding through the shadows through what I like to call the "midtone muck" had me glopping too much paint onto the canvas and would end in much frustration trying to paint dark to light like everyone else! It always felt like I was trying to work a dark 2d cartoon into a sculpture! This is so liberating! I will paint from the light and create the forms going forward, I can't thank you enough for making this video! 🥰

Thanks for the video, it is quite timely in my case. I am about to embark on a large diptych of a couple flowers. I'm working on some color test/sketches as I complete the drawings. I just read Virgil Elliot's book "Traditional Oil Painting." Most of the techniques there are based on translucent shadows and opaque lights. So it somewhat grows outward from the terminator with the opaque paint laying on top of the shadows. I guess my question here would be about methods toward maintaining the opaque lights over translucent shadows while painting from light to dark. The thing I will try first will be to paint "downwards" from the lightest in opaques, and then leave a gap where it goes to shadow, paint the shadows translucent (no white) up to the terminator, then paint in the gap with opaque darks.

That was really useful information! Good idea of getting the light colour made with the correct chroma first and then working down from the light area towards the darker shapes. This way I have the light coloured already worked out and painted. Whereas, if I start from dark and work up to the light colour, I may find it more difficult to get to the correct hue and value because I am painting from previous darker areas. And furthermore, an excellent 'tip' you made - which I never thought about - is that as you lighten the hue by adding white, you are going to lose some chroma! And if you are working from dark to light, the chances are you are going to find your lightest colour lacks chroma because you have been adding white from dark to light. That explains why paintings look dead or washed out! So you would add a touch of chroma in the light area just so that it does not lose the colour and not become lost in a sea of neutrals. These were excellent and subtle points you made that I never thought of before. Thank you! I have subscribed.

Thanks for the insightful video. Now that you illuminate the point of starting light to dark, I realized my more successful portraits were painted this way, and not getting stuck in the mud. I think in school I had a hard time differentiating all a prima, direct painting, and indirect painting, and how to approach each route differently. Placing big brush strokes of the “average” value/hue in spots usually left me working in mud. The “use a large brush” manta also had me working with brushes far too large. I’ve since corrected, but that was such a hurdle.
