In this video you will learn about:
- Starting in Grisaille, focusing on texture
- Painting with Jannik's "Rembrandt" medium and chalk
- Emulating the structure of skin to catch light in a realistic way
- Direction of strokes relating to the direction of light
- Using the ground as a middle tone
- Painting thinner to make colors grayer
- Keeping the interaction of different layers in mind
- The "Rembrandt application" actually not being that thick
- The importance of quick and short brush strokes
- Passive, warm shadows
- Painting on the whole motif simultaneously
- Illusion of details coming from texture
- "The Devil's Brush" and the back of the brush for detail
- Effects you get using your destroyed/worn brushes
