I was reflecting upon a recurring question from the hangout (How can an artist transition from drawing from reference images to drawing from memory?) This video should help.

This video is made for any person who wants to learn oil painting. This video will give you a solid base of knowledge. http://merrillk.com
Today, I am going to show you how to paint a puppy dog. I made this video for beginner to intermediate level artists, who wish to learn about traditional painting...I will try to show you how to paint. step by step. While I can imagine that painting a realistic looking puppy is intimidating for someone new to art, I will try to make my instruction as clear as possible, so that you can get in to great habits for the future. Once you are in good habits, you will progress very quickly.

I split this lesson in to four parts.

1.) Part one will cover what you need to know before you paint.
2.) Part two will give you an effective strategy for painting realistically The mentality of rendering (aka drawing what you see)
3.) Part three will walk you through the process of painting and I will give you tips while I paint. The process of "sculpting" a painting
4.) Part four will actually be a separate video and it will discuss glazing...a great finishing strategy. Glazing: Finishing a painting (Covered in another video)

Part 1.) I have two points to go over in Part 1-

1-1- First, pick a surface to work on. When I was learning painting, I would use cardboard in place of canvas to save money. Ten years later my original oil paintings are still in good shape. However, this would not be the case if I didn't prime the cardboard with layers of Gesso. Without getting over technical, gesso gives your surface a protective layer that will prevent the oil from being over absorbed. Try to remember this silly saying, "Paint with cream, not with butter or milk!" No, im not saying that you should break out the dairy prodicts.....I am referring to the consistency of the paint. Cream is not a solid like butter .....and is not watery like milk. When you apply paint to a surface it should be creamy in texture. You can make the paint creamy by adding about three to four drops of painting medium to the paint that is sitting on your palette. The object in my hand right now is called a palette knife. I used it to mix the paint with the painting medium. For a long time, I considered this step trivial, but it makes a difference!

1-2 Oil Painters use mineral spirits to clean off their brushes and to thin out a paint mixture. Mineral Spirits is also known commercially as paint thinner and sold as an art supply called turpenoid for quadruple the price. You will only need a SMALL amount of Mineral Spirits because its very powerful. Use it sparingly when you wish to thin out your paint; because too much will make the paint runny and "milk-like" in consistency. Here is a great tip to remember when cleaning your brushes.....WIPE-DIP-WIPE. As silly as that sounds, commit it to memory....In other words..... wipe your brush with a paper towel.....Then dip it in to the mineral spirits and swish it around....followed by another wipe with the paper towel to take the extra spirits off your brush. The last wipe is especially important to prevent the excess mineral spirits from thinning out your paint too much

Part 2

Now you will learn a great strategy to help you paint what you see. I call this strategy, "jigsaw puzzle observation" because it is similar to putting a jigsaw puzzle together. Jigsaw puzzles are fun because you fit shapes together to create an image.........I want you to think the same way when you paint. Try to see and identify shapes and then put them together like a puzzle. Painters sculpt and manipulate the paint on the surface of a painting until the shapes fit together as a recognizable image. Here....let me show you what I mean.....When you try this, I recommend that you get in the habit of looking at your reference image at least once for every five seconds; and then paint what you observed. After you get the bigger shapes in.....work your way down to the smaller shapes........ If you feel that you cant work the paint any more. Let it dry and repeat this step on top of the dried paint. You have an advantage by using paint because it is opaque and it can cover over any mistake...... Take your time with this step. Skyscrapers cant be erected without solid supports and good paintings cannot be made without careful placement.

This is my first step by step colored pencil tutorial. After you watch this video, you will have a solid understanding of how to draw a rose with colored pencil. I have simplified the instructions so that even a beginner could create a successful drawing. I will tell you about the colored pencils later in this video. But, for now, grab a regular pencil and some drawing paper. I have a quick recommendation before we begin. Hit the link in the video description and go to my website to download a printable page with our reference image. Lets begin.
Step 1: Draw a long rectangular shape for the stem.
Step 2: Take a moment to observe the proportions of the new shapes that I added. Notice that the leaf to the right overlaps the stem. The two shapes on top are positioned more to the left hand side.
Step 3: Now add the shapes for the bottom of the petals on the right hand side. Notice the U shape that is formed at the bottom of the rose. Notice that the upper shape on the right is slightly thicker than the upper shape on the left.
Step 4: Use your imagination a bit and notice the slightly skewed egg shape above the shapes from the first three steps. Once you notice how it fits, draw it on your paper.
Step 5: Add the four shapes which I just added around the egg shape.
Step 6: Use your observation skills and add even more shapes to the center of your rose. Do not stress if your drawing does not look exactly like mine. In portraiture, you need a likeness, but you don't need to be as exact when drawing a flower.
Step 7: The same rule applies with step seven. Use your observation skills, but don't stress extreme accuracy.

If you own a computer, and you have a myspace account, chances are, you have seen what is known as the myspace self photo....also known as the TOO MUCH INFORMATION profile pic! These photos are usually a combination of blatant misspelling and nudity. Sexxii Grannii (Sexy Granny) ON DECK (Whatever the HELL that means)!

As an artist, it is my job document what exists in the world around me. Right now (early 2010), the social networking sites are king......so I created this mixed media artwork, based upon a scary picture that I saw on Myspace.

I took a mixed media approach in creating this work.
1.) Pencil- I used the pencil to sketch the initial pose. I do not do any shading while working with the pencil (in step one)
2.) Illustration Marker- Prismacolor and Chartpak Ad markers allow me to put down layers of color quickly. These markers leave transparent marks of color, similar to watercolor paint and often, their vibrancy can be seen through layers of translucent color (added later).
3.) Color Pencils- The fine tip of color pencils allow me to make marks with extreme precision. I use prismacolor color pencils because they blend extremely well and are compatible with oil paint.
4.) Oil Paint- The most versatile medium. Oil paint can be applied in thick "impasto" style or in thin transparent glazes. In this case, I tried to finish my work......but I decided that I needed to make a few changes.
5.) In order to make those changes, I let my work dry, then scanned it, then opened it up in....
6.) Photoshop (And Paint Shop Pro 9)- THese two computer programs allow me to do digital collage and edit/refine my work. In this case, I changed the posture of the character.
7.) Print- On SPECIAL paper (hit the link)
8.) Color pencil- to bring out the tones (again) and prep the paper for oil paint (yes, it is a good primer). Also the color from the color pencils mix with the oil paint, which creates a cool effect.
9.) Oil Paint- Finishing touches
10.) Scan
11.) Save as a PNG file....so that I can use this character multiple times.

Step by Step Drawing Playlist: http://www.youtube.com/playlis....t?list=PLD6E34C7CD58

In this video I am going to share a very effective training technique that I use in my classroom. It is a strategy tailored for novice artists and it will make you better at drawing what you see (also known as the skill of rendering). I call this process mass drawing / line drawing. The process will seem awkward at first, but I have seen students get great results once they understand the process. So please give it a chance. All that you will need is a highlighter, a pencil and some paper. Lets begin.

This is a mass drawing. I used the highlighter to make a silhouette of the cartoon character, Ni Hao Kai Lan. I scribbled it in quickly and as a single mass. This will serve as a guide for the second step, the line drawing.

This is a line drawing. Notice that it is done directly over the mass drawing. But don't just outline; make corrections. The mass drawing will enable you to see the big picture and the mistakes that you made. Many of my students have found it much easier than guessing on a blank sheet of paper. So dont outline your mass drawing make corrections while doing the line drawing.

Take a second to look at how many changes I made to the original mass, such as the right arm, the shoes and the hair.

Still confused, thats ok, watch the process a few times and you will begin to understand it. Remember that it is just a drill and drills are used to build good habits for the future. This drill will help you build observation skills and comparative skills which will help you develop the ability to draw what you see. I don't expect you to use a highlighter for long. In fact, I will show you a more advanced method, later on in the video. I will also teach you a really cool trick that will get rid of the color from the highlighter.

But for now, remember that there are two steps to this process. Use the highlighter to create a mass drawing of what you are trying to draw. If you are very new to drawing, try to make your mass drawing a similar size to your reference picture or object. With more experience, you can experiment with scale. Remember that step two, the line drawing, is meant to be a correction of step one.

I have observed that when my students do this process for the first time, they struggle a bit, and complain that the yellow or pink from the highlighter "throws them off". Please remember that it takes three tries, on average, to get fully acquainted with this process. I have also observed that the students who improve the fastest, look at their reference image more often. Get in the habit of looking at your reference image at least once for every five seconds.

To get rid of the color from the highlighter, flip over your drawing and start to scribble all over the back. It is easiest to use the side of a graphite stick, but you could also use a pencil. Once the back of your drawing is covered, flip it over again and tape it down over a new piece of paper. Then, retrace over all of the lines. I used a blue pen for this step. When you remove the tape, you will see a perfect print of your drawing

Now, I am using the pencil to create a mass drawing. Notice that I am pressing very lightly while scribbling in the mass. I have observed that using a pencil is a little bit more difficult for beginners due to the tendency to apply too much pressure and leave dark lines. Also it is much easier to differentiate the bright colors from the highlighter then the subtle tones of a pencil. Still, after you feel that you are progressing with the markers, move on to this step. Do not worry about mastering the process with the highlighter, just get comfortable enough, and move on.

Thank you for watching my video, I reply to all of my comments, so feel free to ask me a question, or just let me know how it goes. Remember to try this at least three times before you judge the process. I guarantee that it will feel foreign at first, but I have used it for eight years in the classroom with a high success rate so give it some time. Happy drawing everybody!

In my demonstrations, I drew, Ni Hao Kai Lan, Spongebob, Homer Simpson, Moose A. Moose (Noggin), Characters from Yo Gabba Gabba, Lilo from Lilo and Stitch, Wow Wow Wubbzy, Dora the Explorer, Patrick Star (Spongebob), Stitch (Lilo and Stitch and Blue the Dog from Blues Clues (Nickelodeon Noggin). I am confident that this process could teach you how to draw any cartoon.

Want to learn to draw Bruce Lee? Look no further. This video will teach you how to draw his body step by step. The first minute and a half is a Bob Ross stop motion karate movie parody where Bob Ross enters my studio and unleashes his master painter ninja style....aka- beats me up.
Art, Step by Step Drawing tutorial:

Step 1.) Observe then add the shape for the upper chest. This shape is comparable to the height of the face. Please note that Bruce's body is turned so the area is foreshortened.
Step 2.) fits to step one like a puzzle piece. Be sure to notice that the bottom is rainbow like and the sides point slightly away from each other.
Step 3.) is a very tricky step. Try to notice that the shape of the arm in this step looks like a women's dress shoe. Put that large shape in first, then go on to she smaller shapes.
Step 4.) Add the V Shape for Bruce Lee's left arm. Notice that it is wider at the top of the arm than the bottom. The palm of the hand is circular and the thumb and pinky protrude at a similar angle.
Step 5.) Observe, then add the line to fill in the shoulder.
Step 6.) Observe then add the legs. Notice that his pants are worn very high, so his legs are slightly longer than his upper body.
Step 7.) Add Bruce Lee's ankles and feet.

William "Will" Turner, Jr. is a central character in the first three titles of the Pirates of the Caribbean film series produced by Walt Disney Pictures. He is played by Orlando Bloom (and as a child by Dylan Smith in the movie's prologue). Will is a blacksmith's apprentice working in Port Royal. He secretly loves the governor's daughter, Elizabeth Swann (played by Keira Knightley), although he occupies a lower social class than she. Will is an exceptional swordsman, although he lacks actual combat experience. Although mild mannered, Will is brave, as seen when he confronts Captain Jack Sparrow in a sword fight and by his response to Barbossa's attack on Port Royal. He is loyal to those he cares about and would risk everything to protect them, especially Elizabeth. This trait is seen throughout the films as Will's character develops more by his reaction to unforeseen circumstances rather than his personal ambition or deliberate choices. Most likely he would have continued plying his trade, never presuming to rise above his current station, pining for the woman he believes he can never have. At his best, Will is clever, heroic, and courageous and never shirks responsibility or leaves an obligation unfulfilled. He can also be preoccupied and brooding and, early on, demonstrated rather simplistic and naïve views, although his character gradually matures and deepens into a more complex and worldly man as the films progress. Will's final costume in Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl is reminiscent of Errol Flynn's swashbuckler movie roles. There is also a nod to Douglas Fairbanks when Turner uses his knife to glide down the ship's sail in Dead Man's Chest, just as Fairbanks did in the 1926 film, The Black Pirate.

Will is about 20 years old as the series begins. He has medium length, brown hair, worn loose or tied back in a short ponytail, brown eyes, white skin. In the first movie, he wears a puffy-sleeved white shirt, a simple brown jerkin, brown breeches, thick brown stockings and leather shoes with metal buckles. He also wears a grey, wide-brimmed hat with a white feather through the back of it, a belt buckle around the top of it, and a design bordering the edges. In the second and third movies he wears various outfits including a fashionable suit and tricorne hat for his wedding that is of a typical style for upper-class gentlemen from his era. In the second film, he also wore a leather jacket over a white shirt, breeches, and, as requested by Orlando Bloom, boots. In both sequels, he is also seen wearing a leather cord necklace with what appear to be charms and other trinkets hanging from it. In the third film, he predominantly wears a puffy-sleeved maroon shirt, a black coat, dark breeches, and leather boots. Sometime between Dead Man's Chest and At World's End, Will acquires a tiny gold-hoop earring that he wears throughout the third film. Just after Will becomes immortal, he appears in a green bandana and a bit of blue eye make-up. His hair changes from slightly oily and wavy in the first and second movie to dryer and fuller, possibly the effects of sailing. In one scene in Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl when Turner and Jack are fighting in the blacksmith's shop, there is a glimpse of Orlando Bloom's wrist tattoo of the Elvish word for "nine". Bloom and the other actors except John Rhys-Davies who comprised the nine "Fellowship of the Ring" members in The Lord of the Rings trilogy have this same tattoo to commemorate their participation in the films. While some felt his tattoo should have been covered for his "Pirates" role, the producers simply stated, "Will has a 'pretty' tattoo on his wrist."

- For the first time in history, artists from around the world are communicating with each other and learning from each other.
- We can not only see each others work but often, we can see how the work was made.
- The master artists of this generation are exhibiting their work on youtube right now.
- This is unprecedented in history.
Artists of the past have their work exhibited in museums and museums have overflowed with generations of masterpieces. Our generation has YouTube. Yes, it is a museum. Think about it. Even major museums are exhibiting on YouTube right now. The current generation of artists has more expressive possibilities of artistic media than generations of the past, and I think that we have carried on arts rich tradition. Here are 20 examples of what I consider to be, Master art work. Click on any of the annotated links and they will open in a new tab.

But does YouTube fully understand the scope of what its created?

That question will be answered in time. But as of right now there is no category specifically for visual artists. The closest three categories are howto and style, education and film and animation. Howto and style is dominated by make up tutorials, workout videos and fashion tips. The Education category does not mention the visual arts and that is especially scary in a time when so many schools have totally eliminated the arts from their curriculums. Film and animation is the closest match but its classification is much more limiting than a Visual Arts category.

It is time to mobilize people. A Visual Arts category would mean a lot more views for all of us. And if you think about it, that is all an artist ever asks. They want a chance to create and to be seen. Just like how a poet uses words, we use imagery to communicate. And many have said that a picture is worth a thousand words. It is my new years resolution to help YouTube realize that it needs a visual arts category. But the good thing about YouTube is that they do listen. Think of how they are always asking for feedback.

So what is the plan, Merrill? I am going to ask you to consider doing two things. One.....Post a V-Log telling YouTube why they need a visual arts category. I don't care if you are Mark Crilley with over 400,000 subscribers or if you joined YouTube yesterday. If you are tired of ranking behind 10 pages of make up tutorials, do a V-Log and either post it to this video or mail it to me. I will put your v-logs in to a playlist which I will attempt to present to YouTube.

Two.....leave a comment in the youtube forum. I recommend going to the forum that I linked to in the video description. My friend Teresa Richardson, who has the fourth largest arts channel on YouTube already started this conversation in this forum. If there is enough comments, an administrator might respond. I encourage you to keep your comments positive and take the perspective that YouTube has given us a great thing, but we want to suggest a way to make it better.

This video will give you step by step instruction on how to draw a Ferrari 599 GTB. And after I give you step by step instruction, I will then teach you how to add color to your drawing with colored pencils and paint. Millions of people have watched my tutorials and thousands have successfully completed them. And you are the next person to surprise yourself with your artistic abilities. All that you will need at this moment is a piece of drawing paper and a pencil.

The best place to leave requests for future videos is in the comments section below or on my facebook like page. Just hit the link in the video description.

Step 1: Draw the shape that looks like a rounded trapezoid. Notice, but don't over stress the angle at which is points downwards and its proximity to the left side of the page.
Step 2: Yep. More polygons. Add the trapezoid shape and the pointy shape above it.
Step 3: I am at a loss for words in terms of naming all of the new shapes, but names arent important, placement is. For instance, notice where the U shape connects with the trapezoid shape from step 1. Also notice that the left side of the door shape starts its arc just before the half way point of the trapezoid shape from step 1.
Step 4: Add the ovals for the tire. Yes I said ovals. Actually, take a close look at the new shape. It is egg like.
Step 5: Add the rear of the car.
Step 6: Add the rear tire.
Step 7: I warn you that this is the trickiest step. Use your observation skills and closely observe the lines. They are both slightly arced. Now look at the two headlights. Notice that the one that is higher is also smaller than the one closer to the bottom of the page. This is also due to perspective.
Step 8: Add the details to the hood. This step is tricky, so use your observation skills to notice that the shapes on the hood get slightly smaller as they go further back.
Step 9: The car is showing its teeth. Youve gotten this far, so carefully observe the placement and add it to your paper.
Step 10: Add the side windows and the mirrors.
Step 11: is optional. Add the rims and the seats.

This is the second of two videos that I (Merrill Kazanjian) made to help the beginner understand the process of oil painting. http://merrillk.com
Welcome to part 4 of my painting video. We are now going to talk about finishing a painting with a strategy called glazing. When an artist glazes he or she adds transparent color as the final layers of a painting. That means that an artist usually uses paints that are transparent to translucent. Most paint companies, put a marker on the outside of their tubes to let a customer know about the properties of the paint. An empty box means that the color is transparent, a half filled box means that the paint is translucent. For any beginner who wishes to try glazing, buy paints that are transparent to translucent.

I have a list of transparent to translucent paints on my website Merrillk.com. The "glazing colors" which I used to finish this painting are in a list at the end of the video description. When I set up my palette, I combine these special paints with a painting medium called Liquin....... But what does the painting medium do? And how does it help you glaze? Let me explain with an analogy; think of frozen orange juice and frozen grape juice! When these two juices are frozen in their containers, they are opaque, meaning that you cannot see through them. But, when you add the correct amount of water, the frozen orange juice becomes translucent and the frozen grape juice becomes transparent. In other words, the concentrated forms of these juices become diluted and the mixture spreads out.........Now think of the popular drinks, Gatorade, Vitamin Water, or Life Water....They are even more diluted from their concentrated form!

Glazing works the same way, but with paint medium, rather than water. The tube of paint is the equivalent of the frozen concentrated juice and the painting medium is the equivalent of the water. When a painter employs the strategy of glazing, he or she adds a good amount of painting medium to transparent and translucent paints.
My personal preference is to mix equal amounts of oil paint and Liquin Painting Medium on the palette with a palette knife.....and I usually leave a pool of Liquin on the side, so that I can dilute the mixture even more, if I need to.

Artists have put hundreds of layers of glazes on a painting, but you have to wait for the previous layer to dry. Now I will demonstrate the process.

Be sure use soft tipped brushes when you glaze oil paint. A fan brush is also a great tool to use. Fan brushes are used to spread wet paint on a paintings surface. They do not carry a lot of paint which is an advantage if you want to blend paint evenly (a brush that carries a lot of paint such as a large round brush has to be used VERY DELICATELY).

When I glaze, I usually apply the paint with round brushes. BUT, I manipulate the paint that I applied with fan brushes.

You can Glaze an Oil Painting Countless Times

The colors that I used to glaze were, Ultramarine Blue, Ultramatine Purple, Italian Brown Pink Lake and Davy's Grey from Old Holland Classic Oil Colors, Asphaltum Black from Mussini Oil Colors Chromatic Black from Gamblin Oil Colors and Zinc White from Vasari Oil Colors.

A demonstration of an illustration technique with illustration markers and color pencils. See more of my work Here: http://merrillk.com One hour compressed in to less than one minute (Time Lapse). A time lapse / speed draw demonstration in time for St. Patrick's day. I used a mixed media approach to draw this character. I used illustration markers (prismacolor and AD), color pencils and acrylic paint. The color pencils are great for detail and the illustration markers are a fast way to lay down base color. I used only white acrylic paint to cover some mistakes on the sides of the head. I also used a paint brush and mineral spirits (turpentine, turpenoid, paint thinner) to blend the color pencil to give this angry Leprechaun a more realistic look. I made the body separately and I used Photoshop to attatch the head to the body.(Check out some of my tradigital videos to see how I do that). Thanks for checking out the video- Merrill Kazanjian merrillk.com

Une heure comprimé à moins d'une minute. Un laps de temps / vitesse de démonstration tirer à temps pour la Saint-Patrick's day. J'ai utilisé une approche mixte des médias pour attirer ce personnage. J'ai utilisé des marqueurs de l'illustration (Prismacolor et AD), les crayons de couleur et de peinture acrylique. Les crayons de couleur sont idéales pour le détail et l'illustration marqueurs sont un moyen rapide de fixer la couleur de base. J'ai utilisé la peinture acrylique blanche uniquement pour couvrir les quelques erreurs sur les côtés de la tête. J'ai aussi utilisé un pinceau et minérales (essence de térébenthine, turpenoid, diluant à peinture) afin de mélanger les crayons de couleur à donner à cette colère Leprechaun un look plus réaliste. J'ai fait séparément le corps et j'ai utilisé Photoshop attatch à la tête de l'organisme. (Voir certains de mes tradigital vidéos à voir comment je le faire).
