Countdown to Jeremy Lipking's video

I previously posted about Jeremy. He's a shining star in the realist world today. A real talent.



He emailed me this morning to announce he will soon be releasing his long-awaited DVD.

Here's a teaser...




Here's Jeremy's website.

Great YouTube video by Seamus Berkeley

What a great portrait! He worked in oils on paper*. I'd really like to try that, but have so little time to paint at all these days.

Here's Seamus' website.

*Correction... See comments. It was on loose canvas. Thanks Seamus.

Zhaoming Wu video released!

Stop the presses! I just saw that Wu's first video has been released!!! I've been checking the publisher's website weekly for about a year anticipating this. It won't disappoint.

Here's the publisher's page, which gives a hint at Wu's technique.

You can rent it at this link, but be prepared to wait. (I'm in line ahead of you!).

Here's his website.

How to draw Einstein

Lon Haverly videos

I've known Lon from an oline forum I frequent these last few years. He's drawn literally thousands of portraits from live models -- a wealth of experience any of us would envy, as models are usually hard to come by.

Lon was in business drawing portraits in a mall for many years. Talk about pressure. He had to get it right every time. Later, he had his own public television show. I never saw the show, as it was not available in my area, but I assume these Google videos are actual clips from the program.

Be sure to visit his website as well.

New Dan Thompson video

Here's another reader contributed link.

American Artist Magazine's website has a great new video by Dan Thompson. He works with a live model, and starts out with only one color, and two brushes (one to apply paint, and another to erase). He works his way up to a two-tone grisaille by the end of the video.

This is a work in progress. The text above the video promises part two will be coming soon. At the beginning, Thompson laid out "twenty or thirty colors", and only used two, so it's possible this will stretch into a three-part demo.

Here's Dan's website.

And, check out all these other demos at the American Artist site!

Thanks Dierdre.

UPDATE: Here's the second and final video.

Art Classes on XTrain.com

This is a reader-submitted link (thanks, Dave).

XTrain.com offers video classes on a variety of topics, including art lessons by Ron Lemen. Ron's videos seem to be professionally produced, and full-length. This is an excellent free resource that may become a pay service in the future (I'm speculating) so enjoy it now!

Time Lapse portrait by Barrett Bailey

Someone on Wet Canvas posted this a while back, but I'm just discovering it now. Barrett Bailey has an impressive CV and over 15 years experience as a professional artist. In this video demonstration, he compresses a two-and-a-half-hour drawing process into a two minute video. Check out his website for more drawings and other great stuff!

Picasso work in progress

Here's a Picasso in progress filmed in 1955 by French director, Henri-Georges Clouzot, who also filmed Picasso creating 20 artworks. The film is now available in DVD format, which (as luck would have it) is also available through NetFlix. So I get to see it free! Yes, it's already at the top of my queue.

Roger Bansemer videos online

Roger Bansemer is a plein aire artist who produces his own web art-instruction series. He has an easy manner about him, and seems to greatly enjoy what he does.

Craig Nelson Snippets

Craig Nelson has several DVDs on the market, and I just ordered one, but I have never watched one. To entice the buyer, his publisher offers these short promotional videos that are like a brief demonstration in themselves.

In fact, the website offers tons of snippets for various artists.
