Beautiful. My little fat cat says that a big body and a tiny head, is the perfect shape for cats!

A much needed one👍

This was so interesting!! What words of wisdom! I have noticed that both the oil painters you interviewed are wearing gloves? My first painting class was in oils when I was 10 years old....a long, long, time ago and I remember always leaving class with a headache and paint all over my hands, is this a new recommendation for oil painters? Thank you, love these interviews, thank you for taking the time out of your beautiful trip to share these interviews!!!

Drawing on the right side is amazing and fun! I am working my way they it and already see a great improvement in my perception and skills

I really love this color wheel, thank you for sharing it with us

I really like your view on using art supplies. Totally changed my mindset!!!! Amazing video, very informative. Thank you!

Amazing drawing process ❤❤❤

I'm always so amazed by your art! xx

We are so impressed with that fantastic portrait, and beyond proud to see you using our own Blick Studio Markers! We put a lot of work and love into developing all the products that carry our name, and we're thrilled to know you rank them with a great brand like Copic! It's a great moment for us to see this amazing representational artist flex her figurative and portrait skills using our products! 😍

Just got some alcohol markers! Anxious to try them out after watching your video. Thanks for the demo!

such a cool video! I had no idea you could make a realistic sketch with markers. It was really fun to watch. Thanks!

Emily, great painting and video. But I have still a question left, let me ask you. Do you know if the smell of the paint itself is toxic? I got a set of those paints here, and I got to tell you, they still smell a little bit. So, even if you're not using water, there's still may have some toxicity involved. But I was reading about those paints, Winsor e Newton claims that those are made from different materials from regular oils. They're made out of modified linseed oil. So, I'm guessing the paints may be less toxic than the regular ones to some extent. But I'm aware the pigments themselves carry toxic substances. I was using casein paint before as a substitute for oil, though. However, casein is a little bit problematic, especially when painting canvas. You need to gesso the whole thing with several layers in order to smooth and harden the surface as much as possible so the casein paint doesn't crack after it dries.

I haven’t used alcohol markers much - I just ordered one of the colored sets of Blick markers- what paper would you recommend to use with these?

Hullo Emily, thank you for sharing this wonderful portrait of your husband! I have used alcohol markers for years now and I have never used them for finished pieces unless they are used just for an underpainting or base coat for pencils. I have used them for artwork that will be photographed and permanence is not required. I know others make prints from their marker art. I do like them for discovering shading or for quick color studies. I like how they work so well when setting up for pastels, blocking in the shapes and creating small quick studies so I have an idea going forward so I am not wasting my soft pastels, I have used watercolor the same way, but markers dry so much faster! Thank you.

Great video Emily! Do you think you can make a video like this bit a colored portrait?

I would love to see more demos or tutorials with watercolor markers. Loved this one! Thank you for showing us how to layer and build up a portrait.

More watercolor animals! Especially horses!

Great to watch you work with these markers, especially to see the sketch and marker-ed piece unfold. Thank you.

that was really interesting! loved the suggestion of using them for outdoor quick sketching.

Great ideas

What a great idea to draw something upside down. I have done that like in a specific area before, but never a whole drawing but you know what I may try that.

Nice portrait drawing. ❤❤❤ you are very talented.

Wow! They are alcohol markers. I have lots of alcohol markers, which I hardly use. Have been waiting for this. Please add alcohol markers to your Mastery course. I am a member for years. Loving all your tutorials.

I need it

Great video! Love Dick Blick❤. The Betty Edwards book is pack with learning excercises. I've been curious about markers and love mixed media art. Thank you very much for this video.

Amazing work as always 😊 I’ve been experimenting with markers and like my watercolour, I’m still rather heavy handed 😂 I did read recently that using watercolour paper with markers may dry out your markers quicker because the paper is so absorbent, so draws ink out of the markers much more quickly than using other papers. Perhaps that’s what happened to your copics?

A mirror also works. The more ways you can use to check, the better. I also sometimes take a photograph. I’m often surprised how different a photo of my art looks from the original!

So fantastic. Thanks for introducing these markers to us!

Great Video!!! Have you ever tried Lisilinka metallic watercolor paints? They look really beautiful, but I don't know if they are any good.

It's seems you use watercolor paper?

Drawing a subject upside-down was also taught to me in an art class! But I forgot about it 😢

I know in one of your interview videos you had mentioned how people like us think you artists are so gifted and are born with it. Well I understand that it takes a lot of hard work too, but Emily you are both! You are a natural born artist and of course you work meticulously on your art to make it look stupendously awesome. I am registered in your Watercolor Mastery courses, and do find it helpful but it is sometimes so intimidating as you can draw soooooo well and the paintings looks spectacular. I have had trouble drawing the initial sketching (I hate tracing!) and by the time I’m done with the painting, it is so off! Ugh! So you are an amazing teacher and indeed I love your courses, just don’t keep up with it as I should and of course that matters too, I guess. But please do keep inspiring and keep those wonderful tutorials coming. We desparados thrive on it!! 😂 thanks for a new kind of medium I can dip my hands into!!😊

I'm so fortunate there is a blick store close by to me! they usually even have cheaper prices than some of the large chain art supply stores

شكرا

Thanks for this...great painter and teacher

Wow this portrait almost looks realistic ❤

Great Video!!! Have you ever tried Lisilinka metallic watercolor paints? They look interesting, but I don't know if they are any good...

beautiful! i use ballpoint pens and i like to look for all the colors out there... i can suggest some if you want.

The world doesn't get to hear and see enough of Daniel Sprick. Great job on the interview. Also I kept wanting to see what the lady sitting and painting was doing. Is she a Sprick student?

Emily, Do you have special wet panel carrying case for your finished pictures? Do you carry those in your back pack also?

Wow! What a wonderful interview. Thank you 🙏 he is so humble and wise - the Obi Wan of contemporary realism

For what I can gather, looks like Daniel Sprick is using Weber Turpenoid Gel painting medium as a dryer. Great interview, I learned a lot. Thank you

Wow the tiger !!! You nailed it !!!

Daniel is so down to earth with a wealth of information in this video. His works speak for themselves. He is such a seasoned artist that knows what gives him inspiration and the drive to keep painting. In simple words, “quantity means quality”. The more you paint the better your painting’s will evolved to look the best and you won’t believe what you just painted. I found this out first hand after I painted like a mad woman getting ready for my first art show in 1990. I also had the amazing opportunity to meet Elaine de Kooning at her studio in the Hamptons. She was so down-to-earth like Daniel here and very inspirational. She was commissioned to do a painting of JFK when he was alive. She had those preliminary paintings of him, that looked finished, hanging like expensive area rugs in her finished basement along with many early paintings of her husband’s, William de Kooning. I liked her abstracts but her portraits were surreal. I couldn’t wait to get back to my studio to paint after talking with her. I so understand Daniel’s thought on keeping his PleinAir paintings. There are some of my paintings that hold deep memories and I will not sell them. What a GREAT interview! You asked all the right questions with such a natural casual insightful spirit. Thank you !!

you also NEED to try Della Magna's fra angelico blue, it is PURE blue even in the pan it is a work of art

Beautiful and so are the paintings, greetings from Australia 🇦🇺.

You’ve explained this really well! Wish I’d seen this video before I bought my first set of half pans! I understood the difference between warm and cool yellows and reds but I didn’t know what kind of blues were warm and which were cool so I accidentally got two cool blues😅 which is actually lucky because the art shop is far away so I had to use their website to fix my mistake and all the ultramarines were sold out so I got delft blue instead and it’s now in my top 3 most used colours! So happy accident I guess 😂 I got a free QOR 5ml ultramarine once with an order and it’s beautiful but I never use it. The only way I can describe it is aggressive. It just overpowers all the other colours and moves so fast and is explosive! Which is probably great for certain styles but for me, the unpredictability stressed me out 😂 I use schmincke so maybe it’s just schmincke that gets dominated by qor and other brands are fine with it 😅

Hola, que hermosa aurora boreal, voy a practicar, gracias por compartir, abrazos desde Colombia 💞🍬😊
