To those of us who didn’t have the luxury of attending any of the “top art schools” this is a well presented primer allowing the uneducated an opportunity to learn the basics.  I thank you for taking the time to start the uneducated on the road to painting.  This was a wonderful video.  😊

“Does that make sense?” Darn right it makes sense.
Superb teacher. Generous.

This is the singular most informative video I have found yet for a beginner painter. Thank you.

This is the best tutorial I've ever seen for oil painting students and I've seen possibly a hundred on youtube.  My heart is bursting with "Thank You's!"  I'm just now getting serious about using oils and I neeeeeeded ALL this valuable information.  ....  joyce

I like how you really pressed the issue of pigments. It is SOOOO important and honestly I hardly hear many artists talking about it. I don’t think enough people experiment with single pigments enough because it’s not often taught in intro type instruction. So I appreciate hearing you really drive the details of the paint itself and what is in it. I love oil painting and don’t do it enough. Thanks

I’ve never picked up a paint brush a day in my life and I’m loving this. I love art and this allows me to appreciate it so much more. Thank you for sharing!

I cant believe this channel exists!!! Priceless. Thank you.

Not to cast disrespect to anyone with art videos. But this is the most thoroughly explained at a level even I can understand video on oils. Great job young lady 🎉

11 minutes in and I'm already super grateful for this fundamentals video. Thank you.

The beauty of oil paint is that it is slow drying. It is a forgiving medium and working wet on wet is how many of us artists like to paint.

Thanks Julie. This intro class was top notch; you are an excellent instructor. I’m looking forward to more of your instructional videos!

This is Amazing!!! Thank You Julie. This is much better than "Watch Me Paint" videos, or videos where an explanation of one or two concepts are drawn out into a 45 min. video just to rack up the AD views.
I've learned more in this one video than I have reading multiple books or watching dozens of other videos.
Looking forward to future videos like this one.

This lady knows what she's talking about. This kind of video seems to be hard to find on the net. At least I haven't seen anything this good very often.

What an incredible teacher!

I started with oil paintings.. have seen many you tube videos about tips and mistakes.. but this is the most useful videos to give a solid basis for my oil painting journey..  With understanding of the various elements/ actors involved in the oil painting, I will be much more confident in what I will experiment and understand science behind it.. Thank you!!.. I found my Guru! 🙂

Regarding materials, this is the best video on YT.

Huge thank you for making this accessible to the public. I have learnt so much!

As an artist that stopped doing art in the early 90s, I can honestly say, this is some damn good teaching right here!

After watching your intro to oil painting I'm going to transition from acrylics back to oils. Thanks.

I’m happy you guys are posting on YouTube again 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾🙏🏾
