I paint mainly imaginative realism. I’m mostly self-taught, I learned the techniques of the Academy of the Nineteenth century by myself and now I try to share some of my knowledge with the rest of the world, because I think that beauty still has an important role to play in artistic creation. On YouTube, I do mostly drawing and oil painting techniques videos in the Atelier tradition, I share thoughts and explanations that can be useful to anyone, from beginners to more advanced artists interested in picking up realism and classical figuration. 🛒 Visit my shop : https://atelierfigurativearts.com/ *** Materials list: ✍️ Drawing ✓ Kneaded eraser ✓ Small mirror ✓ Graphite Pencils 2H, HB and 2B ✓ Charcoal: Nitram charcoals (H, HB and B) 🎨 Palette ✓ Titanium White PW6 ✓ Flake White (or substitute) PW1 ✓ Cadmium Yellow light (or "lemon") PY35 ✓ Yellow Ochre PY42 ✓ Raw Umber PBr7 ✓ Transparent Red Oxyde PR101 ✓ Burnt Umber PBr7 ✓ Venetian Red PR101 ✓ Pyrrole Red PR255 ✓ Quinacridone Rose PV19 ✓ Ultramarine Blue PB29 ✓ Ivory Black PBk9 ✓ Cobalt Teal Blue (turquoise light) PG50 ✓ Phthalo Turquoise PB15 + PG7 ✓ Phthalo green yellow shade PG36 🖌️ Brushes ✓ Filbert hog bristle and Synthetic sizes n° 4, 6, 8, 10 and 12 ✓ Flat Synthetic brushes (same size) ✓ Round sable brush or round Kolinsky sable n° 4, 8, 10, 12 (from the size of the nail (about one inch) or synthetic imitation Medium ✓ Linseed stand oil ✓ Odorless mineral spirits ✓ Or Alkyd medium (Liquin, Galkyd, Flow'n'Dry etc.) ✓ Safflower oil Surface ✓ Linen canvas, fine grain universal coating ✓ For studies : Canson oil-acrylic oil paper Figueras ✓ Gesso and MDF panels are also great for studies #art #painting #inspiration
