Very nice and informative. I'm getting ready to try my hand at a portrait in oil. I have done one study in oil and one portrait in water color. Got lucky and the water color came out nice. Ray in California

Really appreciate your tutorials. It makes a refreshing change to see an artist that's not afraid to admit that it's not easy and they do make mistakes that they have to correct. Seeing your work in real time is great. Thanks very much.

Yupari, great work, I just miss some play between cools and warms colors on the face!

Love that you're painting an alla prima portrait again! I've missed those they're the reason I started watching you. Nicely done!

I bought a couple brushes, the medium and flake white on your link. I was not able to find them in the craft stores around here so glad you linked to them!

Thanks Dearest Yupari! Excellent work and you look more relaxed. Love this new schedule.

I couldn’t love these videos more....if not for my immense fear of failure when it comes to art is be so much further along by applying what I’ve seen from Yupari‘ amazing videos.
Yupari, could you make a video, even if it’s a small one, on beginning portrait artists (or any artist lol) on feeling overwhelmed and discouraged and how to overcome to creative paralysis that fear of failure instills?
You Rock Yupari 🤟🤟🤟

Were you always so self assured about your art?

[reuvenmagnes]

Your drawing is not too shabby, I saw a drawing of yours on IG from Vigee Le Brun . Very impressive .

When I paint it never comes out like that like the paint doesn’t just sit on there he keeps blending with the base layer

in the photo the woman expresses sensuality and in the painting the image expresses absence

Sorry but that's not what the photo looks like .
