How to PAINT a Flower and Vase still life - ALLA PRIMA Tutorial (Learn to Paint Faster)
Finally to painting! I'm pleased to release my first video on oil painting. This work is painted using the all prima method. Alla prima does not mean "wet on wet" like you will hear it called. It is Italian for "at once" and refers to doing a painting in one session before it dries. This means you paint much more direct than you would if you were choosing to layer your painting up.
I will continue to release videos on painting still life, landscapes, portraiture, and other fun projects I come up with in the weeks to come. My goal is to speed up my painting and video release process while simultaneously increasing the quality of both at the same time.
Thank you so much for supporting my work and please let me know how I can improve my videos and what you would like to see me draw or paint.

Are you washed up? Do all the hot chicks look down on you at school because you can no longer function properly as an artist? Perhaps they think you suck because you don't know how to landscape paint. Fear not idiot. I am here with another power packed video of knowledge that will catapult your @$$ to the top of the freaking totem pole where you belong. Just remember, technique in art is secondary. The most important thing is to always look down on people because they are morons.

Being one of the most highly intelligent and talented artists that has ever lived, I am honored to give you the honor of watching me in this most FLAWLESS freaking video explaining why Figure Drawing is so valuable for artists in this dreary, bleak and hopeless world of pain and needless(debatable) destruction.
If you want to improve your creativity, art and your worth as a person, I highly recommend you try your fat hand at the nude figure. If you don't, I will judge you harshly and I will do everything in my not insignificant power to destroy you.

Hey Guys! In this video, I continue my epic quest to learn to draw with my left hand by drawing the cutest creature in the entire universe....THE AMELIA -- my niece.
I talk about pencil drawing techniques and the patience it takes to employ them with my left hand. I go over the general construction of the drawing and the issues I had while sketching this portrait.

Materials I used in this video:
HB Pencil --Harder led than B pencils. Great for lighter areas
B Pencil --Softer led than the HB pencil. Great for darker shadows
Kneaded eraser --Very malleable eraser which increases the accuracy of erasing
Strathmore Sketchbook
How / Why I sharpen my pencil the way I do:
I use an Exacto knife to shave it to a point and then use fine sandpaper wrapped around a wood block to further sharpen the point.
The pencil will stay sharper for longer and you can get finer detail.

This is the academic method of developing a figure in pencil as taught at the Florence Academy of Art. We start by drawing the shapes as simple as we can within reason so as to be able to fix proportions at an early stage. In this manner, we are able to lay the foundation for solid development of the work leading to the final stage where we refine.
This drawing took me about 3 hours or so because I have a giant brain, however, if you are first starting and especially if you are a moron, I recommend spending a solid 2 hours on the block in stage and try to force yourself to see the proportions at the initial stage. Doing this will train your brain to understand shapes early on and you will end up saving yourself a ton of time later because you won't need to correct what you have already refined.
If you can draw like this, that means you are an intellectual who is better than everyone else. This means you can look down on those around you. Just remember, if you want to be better than everyone else, you should treat people like the peasants that they are and exalt yourself through the suffering of others. NEVER TAKE THE HIGH ROAD. Always sucker punch to the nuts. I forgot where I was going with this but I'm too lazy to delete it and I doubt anyone will read this far. Having said that, as a test, I made a few mistakes in this drawing. See if you can pick them out.

My genius cannot be contained in merely one mortal form as you will see. In this masterfully executed video, I team up with myself to more accurately shove my knowledge on how to properly varnish a painting into that lump that sits three feet above your ass. In addition, my boundless generosity prompted me to inform you on how to clean your brush after the varnishing process. Varnish is different than oil. Ergo it must be cleaned with different solvents. Never be discouraged my dear peasants. Life is hard and painting can be harder, but with my help, we can look painting in the eye and say "SUCK IT." Again, I don't expect anyone to really read this so I'm pretty much writing a bunch of crap that doesn't make sense.

Oil painting is a highly intellectual art that only the most superior of our race are able to perform properly. My friends, do not be afraid. I know this little world of art can be scary but I am here to educate you to the fullest and equip you with greatness by slaying your artistic enemies.
This skull still life painting was done in 4 hours but it will last throughout the ages and I have no doubt it will change the way civil society will forever think about art. If you are still reading at this point, I have to be honest and say I didn't expect anyone to read past the word "oil" so I will take this opportunity to trail off....
