Oil Painting Processes of the Masters (Part 3 of 3)

Published 2022-06-06
PART THREE OF THREE
James McNeill Whistler, John Singer Sargent, and William Bouguereau

This exciting 3-part series looks at seven of the world’s best oil painters from history and examines how each laid down their paint layers to create their masterpieces. Part three covers three amazing artists who were all contemporaries of one another but whose styles varied significantly.
American artist, James McNeill Whistler, was one of the most influential of the avant-garde painters in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. John Singer Sargent painted stylistic portraits of some of the biggest names of his time, and William Bouguereau was one of the most renown artists in Western Europe during his lifetime.

    I don't think i've ever seen any documentary on painting that was of higher quality than this series and i've seen a lot. Simply incredible Jill, thank you for making these incredible (in all regards) video's.
  • @kenboydart
    These videos from Jill should be required viewing in EVERY public school . I am certain that a great number of students will have their lives changed in a wonderful way .
  • @louisalinton
    I agree with Milo, this is the most complete overview of the history of oil painting EVER. I'm a painter (was an art teacher till I retired) and it took me years of studying (and a lot of reading) to learn the "tricks" that the old masters used. Jill, you managed to cover it all in just In 3 short parts, with excellent visuals to boot :) Thank you for sharing.
  • @velvetchiharu
    In a time when many artists edit their process down to satisfying 10 second videos it’s very powerful, as an artist, to know that even masters who painted since childhood like Sargeant had a stumbling sort of approach to painting involving mistakes, adjustments, and long pauses of analyzation. Unlike how social media presents, they didn’t always go into their paintings knowing 100% how they were getting to the end. Thank you so much for doing the research and sharing! This is so much more than just educational.

    Came for Whistler, but Bouguereau took my heart. Simplicity with deep devotion to his craft.
  • Finally a video on painters of someone who understand how painting works and do researches on the techniques, thank you so much for this, hope to see more !

    I will take nothing away from the excellence of this series but I must add that the vocalization quality is light and seamless. It created a delicate, audio texture that added to the video of each piece and its technique(s), giving birth to the captivating audio-visual blend. This is the way to educate the novice seeking to experience the joys of art appreciation.

    Bougerou is my absolute favorite. I love him for teaching women at his school at a time that was frowned upon ...on top of his transcendent painting skills and vision

    You, Jill Poyverd, are an artist as well. There is more accessible information in the short time I’ve watched your presentations than the longtime spent in classrooms. Thank you
