Oil paintings are pretty much buck naked. It is a very intimate form of art, as it shows not only the mastery, but also all mistakes and flaws in the most honest sense. It lets you feel the presence of the painter as if he is right there in the same space with you.

Sometimes it arises above the surface, and when it does, I don't question why it makes me happy. Instead I just go for it. It seems like in this modern times, people tend to formulate and label everything, then come up with educational method to learn them as skills. I like that idea very much. Yet, there is one thing that I know that I cannot learn how to have, and that is passion.</span></span></span>Yusunhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07146233355917936493noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6559206885779771575.post-66459016030674524392014-05-04T16:39:00.001-07:002015-10-30T12:15:06.471-07:00Sketch from the cruise<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

It was given to me as a homework during the Dice Workshop but I didn't have time nor skill to do it at that time.<br />
Taking a stab at it now, now that I've done an observational painting in a similar lighting set up :)<br />

Finally picking up painting again. This is a great way of studying interior lighting when it's overcast outside. </div>

I plan to finish this one and get one more color rough under the similar lighting done afterwards.</div>

I took a workshop last year at the Animation Collaborative taught by Dice Tsutsumi. When I started the 'Film Design with Light and Color' workshop, all I wanted was painting practice and learning how the color and lighting theory works in film. I am a<b> BIG</b> film fan and I love to paint. My idea was that simple. What can go wrong?<br />
<br />
What I didn't realize was understanding the light and color theory for film is simply not enough, you actually have to be able to execute the idea into concept painting. The concept paintings have to have the accurate sense of lighting as well as cinematically pleasing visual, and it has to support the emotional arc of the story. The painters' understanding of lighting has to be so accurate that the 3D lighters should be able to simulate the exact lighting using the 3D software based on the concept painting.<br />
<br />
This might be a real high standard for concept artists in films, and could be geared towards specific concept art directors at certain places, but this is definitely the exact reason why I feel utterly lucky to live in this area. I get to be exposed to these kinds of mastery and get the chance to learn the craft.<br />
<br />
The workshop was very competitive to get in. The only reason I was accepted was because Dice saw the potential to follow the curriculum from my traditional Atelier style figure drawings, and a mutual friend told him that my work ethic is great and I WILL WORK VERY HARD to meet the standard. (This is true, people. It's very true)<br />
<div>
<br /></div>
During that three months from Oct 2013 to Dec 2013, I'd never felt that much challenged art wise since the Ringling times. I painted and painted and painted except when I needed to sleep, go to work and workout. I ran between places because I couldn't afford to lose any minute. One night of hanging out with friends meant one less homework submitted to the class and I knew I would feel ashamed. I never felt I was good enough, because everyone in the class was concept artists and they were freaking amazing painting ninjas, and I?<br />
<br />
I have a little bit of oil painting experience from school eight years ago only from observation, never conceptual, and I had no experience in digital painting. On top of that, because I had a very old dying laptop, I got a new desktop (Mac), and a portable painting device (Cintiq Companion, Windows8), which meant I had to set up the new machines and learn the new OSs, while juggling between Mac OS(desktop), Windows XP (laptop), 7 (work) and 8(cintiq) all at the same time, while problem solving all sorts of issues, and well, learning how to paint in Photoshop and learning how to paint BETTER in general.<br />
<br />
The painting ninjas got out of the class with beautiful and breath taking color script of Where the Wile Things Are. I focused on color roughs, observational paintings and master copies. In the end, I found my painting skill improved dramatically, and I experienced the change in mind and brain in terms of painting impression instead of painting information. That was huge. The amount of learning I've got in that short amount of time was unbelievable, and even though I know there are so much more to go, I am forever grateful for the opportunity that I've got. I now have to keep the journey going, and slowly herd my effort and result toward my final dream goal: Film Making. I don't know how yet, but I will figure it out....eventually.<br />
<br />
What a life and how much I'm in love with it. This gives me an endless happiness and joy as I improve as much as I want to, and as much as I work for it.<br />

The more I study Richard Schmid, the more I realize how efficient he is in strokes. Not sure how he does it, but every stroke counts. He's not interested in depicting EVERYTHING we see. He is interested in depicting EVERYTHING we feel.<br />

You can simulate lighting situation in 2D concept painting in two ways. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
One: Straight up painting. If you know for sure what kind of lighting you want, this could be the fastest way</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Two: paint the scene in overcast lighting situation first, then tweak the lighting in layers in Photoshop. This way lets you try many different lighting situations in much faster way than painting each of them individually.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

I painted way more in that three months, than how much I painted over the eight years. It was an amazing experience. and I want to post some of the paintings from the class<br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b>Color Rough</b></div>
Color Rough is a practice of painting over an existing layout to simulate a certain lighting and color situation. In this case, it's an overcast lighting. All layouts are Ghibli Studio animations.<br />
<br />
<b>First Color Rough</b><br />
This is one of the very first digital paintings I've done in my life. It doesn't convey sense of lighting much, and the strokes could be way simpler, but I tried<br />

<b>Second Color Rough</b>: is up there. Look up at the forest scene :)<br />
<br />
<b>Third Color Rough : </b>This one was very challenging as there are so much going on. Containing the color in the range of harmony, and getting the sense of distance right was two of main things I struggled the most.<br />

I am studying overcast lighting these days and this is what I chose to do a master copy of in order to learn the use of light and color under that weather circumstances. I really like this painting. It's loose but all the focus is in the right places. I realized that the way that Richard Schmid makes the loose painting look so crisp is by the choice colors and the edges.<br />
<br />
The local colors are all there, but with a hint of yellow orcher and the purples.<br />
<br />
It took me nine hours.<br />

On the seventh year of my career as a working artist at a video game company, I faced an imaginary mirror and asked myself a question. What is the imperative in the make up of my happiness? Out of the bare honesty, three answers came out, and one of them was very simple:</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Art: drawing and painting for the sake of it. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Since somewhere around 2003, I have had strong desire to 'just paint', but there was no time in my life that I could actually be serious about drawing for the sake of it. It looked like luxury to me. I had to learn how to animate first, then get a decent job, then move up the chain like everybody else. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
In the time and where I live, it seems almost too silly not to pursue being an entrepreneur and be rich already: 'Sucess' is within an arm reach! You can draw as a hobby!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
I love what entrepreneurs do. It makes sense to me. That is the reason why we educate ourselves: coming up with ideas, developing, communicating, collaborating, planning, executing, problem-solving, and finally, publishing them. It is a work of art indeed. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
What I can't explain is why I want to 'just draw and paint' Where did it come from and why do I want to? Shouldn't I be studying business instead of drawing at this point of my life? Honestly, I don't have an answer for that. I only know that it makes my heart pound, and coming one small step closer to exellency shakes me with a whale of joy. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
I finally decided to be serious about drawing and signed up at an Atelier. I will continue to draw, and when I'm ready, move on to painting. At this time though, with the best seriousness I can have. </div>

</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">I really like Richard Schmid. He's a genius of Alla Prima painting. I did this study of his painting, because this is the painting he listed with three progress versions. I had a hope to learn from it. </div>Yusunhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07146233355917936493noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6559206885779771575.post-74665431328545866982010-07-26T14:54:00.000-07:002010-07-26T16:21:18.472-07:00Jenny<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhs0FrYJ2lxgsdPuOS6vGTnQI_YrFp7pU8mS3r5oPO9zlMWAXrQyP1WXm-fH7CWuWW3Z7CdBp5oEyXw-0uzRL7FP8sKtgLJfx0v6PQxb53dF9WTyAWly-B1I0PJUuS9NhnNq6WkKMoK3DFp/s1600/mypainting.jpg"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 317px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 320px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5498336718799178930" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhs0FrYJ2lxgsdPuOS6vGTnQI_YrFp7pU8mS3r5oPO9zlMWAXrQyP1WXm-fH7CWuWW3Z7CdBp5oEyXw-0uzRL7FP8sKtgLJfx0v6PQxb53dF9WTyAWly-B1I0PJUuS9NhnNq6WkKMoK3DFp/s320/mypainting.jpg" /></a> Another three hour painting. I hope someday I can paint without thinking that I suck so much. This is my third painting in 2010. And I am enjoying it so much that driving to Oakland and paying toll doesn't feel so bad. (but I'm always looking for somebody to go there from SF with me. Let me know!) I am very thankful to Seb for keeping the painting session going for so long. Will see you again in Aug!Yusunhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07146233355917936493noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6559206885779771575.post-90481625886259510662010-06-22T00:30:00.001-07:002010-06-22T00:31:37.525-07:00Sonya<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiyQvbKOMyKBzn4nYKLH5v5-dvNXnf9v3otg9IIDNUlRZvfIjQbtmhsqJR8DrXyW1AoOekxGjv8_2Clv3baIRBxfnZWA_4spV30cbpXoDxwoRPu2qTYtSBj5_iPRyPy9NnFiqZNAfyJgEbt/s1600/Sonya2.jpg"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 233px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5485497386435697426" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiyQvbKOMyKBzn4nYKLH5v5-dvNXnf9v3otg9IIDNUlRZvfIjQbtmhsqJR8DrXyW1AoOekxGjv8_2Clv3baIRBxfnZWA_4spV30cbpXoDxwoRPu2qTYtSBj5_iPRyPy9NnFiqZNAfyJgEbt/s320/Sonya2.jpg" /></a> Sonya<br /><div></div>Yusunhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07146233355917936493noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6559206885779771575.post-85469671086063599432010-05-31T23:35:00.000-07:002010-07-26T16:21:29.809-07:00Ann<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjuBfTaUoaNI6KtmMMbw1OxNm1K-ut5k2w3mN9gS8Pcy712MYVoy6lJuR48ZhX1dQ7Oe9kPbqYf1-x3StX-Ju_78cQmPr5Kr1XHVSz-NtT5CMFJa928r0k7YFA3ETInOI_0No6_HtP9Yxka/s1600/figurePaintingMay2010.jpg"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 224px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 320px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5477690453022435890" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjuBfTaUoaNI6KtmMMbw1OxNm1K-ut5k2w3mN9gS8Pcy712MYVoy6lJuR48ZhX1dQ7Oe9kPbqYf1-x3StX-Ju_78cQmPr5Kr1XHVSz-NtT5CMFJa928r0k7YFA3ETInOI_0No6_HtP9Yxka/s320/figurePaintingMay2010.jpg" /></a> <div>It's been five years since I did my last oil painting. Oil paints even dried out and I had a hard time even getting the paint out from the tube. all in all, I didn't get lost, just needed more time on it. I'm going to try one more at Seb's soon. Painting is so much fun. </div>Yusunhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07146233355917936493noreply@blogger.com0
