Quick Tip 271 – Expressive Brush Strokes
How and why are some artists using expressive brush strokes. Artist/art teacher Dianne Mize shows example from famous painters as well as a primer on the different effects.
Hi Dianne
Your latest video is extremely clear and detailed helping
with understanding the importance of brush handling. My question for you is about your palette…where can I find your palette layout? Thank you
Lucia
wasn’t the first one done in egg tempera-that has a more flat approach, because of the nature of the egg tempera right? thanks for the demonstration. very helpful
Great example, thank you so much Dianne
Brilliant love your quick tips and really love your passion and energy thank you.
I am a blender but watching the two skyes I see how stronger the second one is. Time for me to try something new.
Very helpful – thank you!
Are these oil paintings?
πππππ To my Guru….in India means a Master not just a teacher. Teacher just delivers the information. Master reaches heart of the seeker.ππ
Do you feel you save paint by keeping it in deep wells?
I hate wasting paint which I occasionally do by having it piled on my flat glass palette.
Thx.

In your opinion….is impressionistic style is appealing more than realistic approach?
Hi Dianne,thanks for all your help I like a loose style of painting and am trying to work towards that so this will be helpful
You said we could ask a question and I would like to know how to really make a painting glow is it just the bright colours against the dark I’m trying to paint a mountain village at night and although it’s not too bad it needs something to take it that bit further thanks again for all your help
Great tip!! thank you for sharing this!I I personally like those paintings where brush strokes are visible! π..I think they make paintings more lively and expressive!π.. thank you Dianne for your wonderful tips! they help so much!π take care and stay blessed!π
I want to express how happy I become when a new video of your is uploaded. Youβre a youtube gem.
Very informative nice video
what occurred to me, as i was watching , was how different mediums will also have huge effect on the approach .. i was watercolorist most of my life, and many watercolorists strive for smooth transitions, gradations, etc.. I fell in love with gouache about year ago, and the difference is amazing ! I find my work and process so ,so different when i’m painting in gouache.. I think i’m able to tap into the expressionistic nature , using brushstrokes more with the gouache.. ( I imagine the process to be more similar to oil painting).. i’m NORAKAG on instagram , in case you’d like to see how different I paint with those two very different mediums .. I was also thinking that perhaps the Chinese watercolor masters are the closest I can think of , as far as using such strong expressionistic brushstrokes in the watercolor genre .. thanks so much for your fabulous tips .. I really get so much from your calm, methodical approach .. take care π
Are you using oil paint for all your tutorials?
Which one is your favorite?
Hi! Im a beginner artist, how can i know my art style, although i have experience many styles in my career?
Nothing like abit of stroking on a sunday morning
another great video, thanks so much
Hi Dianne,
Thank you for the quick tip on your palette. I also have found that many colors are no longer on my work surface…because I have learned how to mix the desired color which offers a beautiful depth and richness. Thanks a bunch..

Diane can you please tell me how to lighten any color without using white. I find when using white it changes the colors I’m using and they become chalky. Thank you
Kindly can you teach how to paint white on white like white horse on white background need tips thanks
What do you add to your paints to make them flow so nicely
Of the three pictures you showed I loved John Singer Sergeant….with mild degree of brushstrokes…I don’t like Van Gogh at all….it’s too aggressive I think….but I’m aware that, Van Gogh self portrait is world famous. So what is your opinion on the degree of expression….depends on what that subject needs to show?…..like Van Gogh self portrait looks as though he is in lot of inner and outer turmoil in his life…
Good video Dianne. Iβm fond of both loose and tight paintings seems that the composition, value structure and edge quality make or break the painting tight or loose and color take a backseat in my estimation.
Amazes me how people think Sargent was American. He was born in Italy. I’ve got a niece who was born in Australia, she’s Australian, not Irish. Sargent is Italian. Really surprised, this is what the English usually do, latching onto Andy Murray, scottish tennis player, and portraying him as a successful ‘ British ‘ athlete. He’s a successful Scottish athlete . Sargent is not American.
Thank you!
