This video is a trowback to 2010 from when i was working on a big exebition i had in oslo norway. it was filmed with dv camera so it is a litle different in format. the video was filmed before I actualy stared doing youtube videos so it is a fun to watch trowback (for me atleast ;)
In the video i paint on one of my big figure painting to different music wile i dance around doing brushwork . maby you can learn somethig from it , the sound is not to good so bear with me :)

In this oil painting flow I show you how to Oil paint a female figure with a I show you how i use my brushes . I do not use charcoal or do a oil paint block , I start straight on the canvas and from a point I just let it evolve in to a painting. I do start with the face and I also start on a canvas that I have toned with turpentine and raw umber , I do let it dry before painting so the raw umber do not mix with the clear oil colors in the Painting process . Rembrandt is by far the greatest painter in my view

I am a Norwegian artist and painter that creates youtube videos about how to make oil painting . on this channel i manly focus on oil paint and how to use brushes , oil painting medium , oil colors , how to mix oil paint , how to use the palette :)
I always start on a dark canvas because to me oil painting is like a relief where I build the river landscape like I would out of clay or carve it out from a stone or wood.
Building a painting is adding and subtracting The darkened canvas has already subtracted the light and lets building up the light .
In a landscape painting like this it is also more room for a more impressionist painting tecnique and to be looser with the brushwork.

My Focus as an Artist and painter is the paint itself and the aesthetics that evolves wile I transfer the motif on to the canvas. I am not a conceptual artist and my driving force for doing paintings is the personal challenge painting figurative gives me. As a painter with Artists like Rembrandt Turner Leonardo da Vinci and Jan Vermeer as my objective standard I will always have to push myself to get better In painting is where it get personal for me and where I reflect in results how successfully I have used my time and in the end my short existence in this infinite universe and time. On this channel I manly focus on oil paint and how to use brushes , oil painting medium , oil colors , how to mix oil paint , how to use the palette :)
I do make these videos to help others to become better painters and it makes me glad to hear that some of you get inspired :)
