I'm always so insecure when it comes to portraits but breaking it down into these steps really helps a lot. Thank you :-)

[PedToks]

Slew's studio is very huge and all the works hanging on the wall shows that he is worth watching and to learn from him. Thanks Slew for your free tutorial !

[arnaldohernandez]

Bro makes me want to paint again, I’m glad he follows his own process I mean we all have different way in which we work. Keep it up with the amazing work.

Love how in depth you got with this one. Love the "step" process. Really helps organize the project. Always with the heat Slew, and you portrayed your girlfriend beautifully!! 👏👏👏

Remember that you could also use transfer paper and print the photo on like 60% opacity. Just open it in Paint and use preferences of printing to print it in poster mode so you could then combine all sheets together and put them on the transfer paper that is on the canvas.
When you don't really know what block of colors to paint, you can use photoshop to posterize the photo so you can see where and what colors to paint on the canvas. Both these tips will help you save a few hours :)
I just want to share what I learned back when I started painting two years ago ^^

[McBernes]

I love how the glaze sort of wakes up the painting, it's a beautiful thing to see. It's like it smooths and brightens the whole painting.

After the first few seconds of watching your video, I knew something interesting was coming. I wasn't wrong: the steps you present are essential for making your work unique. The rest is in the hands of the executing painter. Thank you very much for sharing the video.

[Nooshiyer]

Portraits are super hard for me but watching your videos fills me with confidence to hopefully give it a shot someday!

[bridgesart]

Well organized and presented. This is the process I use if painting from a photo.

[paulapeterson-warnock]

Your girlfriend have beautiful, soulful eyes. This classical style you paint is by far my favorite you do! ❤

[tumblingrosesstudio]

This is a terrific video, will watch it again in my studio! THank you for all this hard work!

[artbylopz]

Thank you for sharing. This video is so informative and educational. I believe more college art instructors should watch this one and incorporate in their teaching because the way you simplified it and made it so easy to follow is top notch!

[clellasher]

Slew, you do a wonderful job! This is how I learned to paint. Your tutorials are awesome. Keep it up my friend. Thank you for sharing your time, your skill and your adventure👍🤟🪡🎨

[ajantakelkar]

[garyvoigt]

Very well done and the processes seem so simple when broken down. Beautiful finished piece.
