Sebastian Salvo Applies the First Layer of the Portrait of Gloria Bedoire

Jan-Ove Tuv visits Sebastian Salvo to observe him as he applies the first layer of a frontal portrait of the Swedish model Gloria Bedoire. You can follow her on instagram:
https://www.instagram.com/gloria.bedoire/

In this video you will learn about:

  • Starting “dry“ with a color similar to the ground
  • The importance of the eyes
  • How a schematic approach to painting may go against nature
  • “Hand memory“ (thinking with your hands)
  • Combining sharpness and softness
  • Slowing down (because you demand more)
  • Being on guard against hubris (which makes you “blind“)
  • Avoiding dark shadows in the beginning
  • Continuing until you get a clearer idea of the point of the portrait
