Speed Painting Child portrait in oil paint – Time Lapse Demo by Lachri

13 38



In this time lapse painting demonstration, I show you how I painted a childs portrait by glazing layers of translucent oil paint on a Fredrix oil primed linen canvas board using Winsor & Newton oil paints. I started by painting it all in black and white paint. When that dried I went over everything with several layers of translucent colors. Thanks to Fredrix for providing me with the canvas.

    i would really like to know when you stopped each session. maybe just adding like a 'day one, day two, day three' kind of thing in the corner of the video.

    I wonder if you'll ever do a portrait on a much bigger canvas and how you'd adjust your technique to it. Your style is not really like Chuck Close, you like jumping all over the place and he likes to go one square at a time… at least in his photorealistic portraits… You also also like having interesting backgrounds, etc.. Would be cool to see!

    Lisa, I watched this painting again. Question ?? If you had used an acrylic primed canvas would you have painted the monochrome under painting in acrylic and then build up the layers in oil. I enjoyed watching the full oil painting, but in many of your other paintings, you used acrylic and then enhanced the painting with oil layers. Was there a lot of time between layers with the oil? Again, Thanks so much,

    Lisa, this is another example of your great work. I enjoy watching your videos each week. Your work is very consistent with what you have suggested in the critiques on Tuesday. I enjoyed looking at how you work the lighting and add the correct highlights in the eyes. You are an excellent artist in all aspects.

    Ok I found my art stuff, I'll practice hard. By the way, what kind of music you listen while painting? because honestly I can't draw or paint if I'm listening something like instrumental music or so, the japanese figure skater you saw on my channel was drawn while I was listening really REALLY heavy stuff: Behemoth – L.A.M. (Satanica) many people told me that you CAN'T consentrate with this kind of music but I really can, in fact I think I'm even MORE focused that way, in the other hand if I'm listening something smooth and slow I either fall asleep or I begin to despair, I've tried another genres and sub-genres of music but apparently heavy stuff (most metal sub-genres and dubstep) do the trick for me. Am I doing something wrong? what kind of music you listen?.
