Live painting - A short video

in art •  6 years ago 

I did this painting a couple of days ago (on FacebookLive, yes, I need visibility, this is my job ^^). It took around 40 minutes. In this video the first part of the painting is at 4x speed. Not a great painting, just sketching with brushes, you know.

(In the meantime Steem is "restoring continuity" from the HF20, as everyone know, and we get SBD for reward again. I didn't follow the last changes in the Steem blockchain, I don't know what changed, except for the onboarding fee handling, afaik...) (Good to see something changing anyway ;) )

wow, thx!

I love watching artists doing their work. It looks so simple and easy in your video. But I'm sure that if I would try it I would give up after a few minutes :) Actually, I would not even come up with such a great idea! Oh, and I have to ask, what do you have in your mouth? :)

Ciao paolo! Siamo un nuovo gruppo italiano su steemit, ci piacerebbe che partecipassi al nostro contest BASE: Body, Art, Science, Emotion Vieni a trovarci sul nostro discord magari! :)

It is nice that you took time for doing video, it is a headache for me to install the camera on tripod and do not forget to switch it on and then off, if <i do little break while colors getting dry. Once even my battery was empty just at the end of my video so the end result was not there. That is why I do not really like it it took me the whole day of the work with camera at the end it was not really viewed all hard work for nobody's interest.

I like the way you sketch, using paint from beginning on. I sometimes cover the background with colors and sketch with palette knife or just with the piece of tissue, as it is easy to correct.

You painting looks really good, I love the color of your buildings and little lights in windows. Of course the main character is a panther or may be a cat, in Art everybody can interprets as he likes :)

Wow ! Very nice to see a video of you at your art, @paolobeneforti ! :D The picture is nice too, it looks like someone's dreaming of their cat, who's prowling over the rooftops of the city :)

Have you checked out Weku yet?

not yet. do you think I should? (I'm on Trybe, Dabble and Minds too :D)

It's set up just like steemit. I made $52 on my intro post and am averaging around $5-$6 a post so far. I have a bad feeling about this hard fork here. The last one cut down voting power from 40 votes at 100% to 10. Now this one has those "credits" so everything you do counts against you. WeKu is like Steemit before all the hard forks... like back in "the good old days." Here's a link in case I didn't give you one before...

thx Rich, I'll try it :)

I think Silvia said she already started an account. I tried Minds but never did any good there.

I really like watching the video of you painting this artwork. You made it look so simple but I know that most of the works are actually done in your mind. It is a beautiful and thought provoking painting, it made me contemplate about the meaning behind the cat above and the person below.
                       
Congratulations for your curie vote :).                  

Very unique images and videos of giant cats above the city, and he seems to be staking something.

good video and great painting is very movie you put a bit of fiction but it was very cool your thinking towards the painting thank you for the page sharing towards all of us and this is what causes with the new update of HF20 to draw very beautiful the painting in the room would look perfect the painting you did @paolobeneforti

I would love to see the full video but my internet does not let me, anyway so you see your drawing is fantastic! The details made to the tiger are great thanks for sharing

Well Change, whether good or bad, is inevitable anyway, so I guess we have some...change I mean. I'm not sure if it's good or bad wither.

I was happy to see we can ear SBD again, seems fun.

Today is the first day in awhile that I did a sort of 'proper' post just because I wasn't certain what we have been meant to do. And it is the first time I am finally upvoting again as well, it feels good, only not sure how mana works.

Amazing drawing as always and it's always so good to watch it in action.

I love the face at the bottom, it takes it to the next level!

Very grateful to you @ for having shown us the process of your painting, it is beautiful to see all that this entails, It has really wonderful arts @paolobeneforti .. !!

That's impressive. To paint that in just 40 minutes is amazing. It's in interesting painting but to be honest probably not one i would hang in the house. I can still appreciate the work behind it even if it's not to my taste. Art has always been subjective but the quality behind it is not in question.
