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:

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
