"Portrait Painting - Glowing Rim Light" by Ignat Ignatov

video
This is my NEW Instructional DVD on Portrait Painting, it is available for "pre-order" on my website: www.IgnatovArt.com.

DVD description:
"In this two-hour instructional demonstration Ignat Ignatov takes you on a revealing journey of his painting process, painting a quick portrait in one sitting, using the wet-into-wet direct approach also known as alla prima. Ignat’s commentary describes, step-by-step, his painting method from start to finish and provides valuable lessons for artists of all levels."

What a rip off.

The whole demo is 1 hr 58 minutes

The first 1 hr 7 min is shot as a long short (no close up).

The next 27 mins is a medium shot (no close up)

That means from the start up to 1 hr 34 mins I can hardly see what was going on in detail, missing out important visual information. Bear in mind that the whole dvd is only 1 hr 58 mins.

Close up started at 1 hr 34 min until 1 hr 55 mins
(by the way even this 21 mins so call close up should have been zoomed in a lot more for one to see clearly to be useful)

So what is really the purpose of this demo? Perhaps to show off or to make money??? Or the artist simply are not secure enough to share his technique ?????

Also Quote hajar9911
"the portrait looks more like a girl from final fantasy than the model"

Although Ignat are capable of doing a good likeness but in this demo I have to agree with hajar9911.

Ignat, I've had a chance to take a close look at a few of your recent paintings...wow, you're really on fire! Nice work.
