Alla Prima Portrait Painting with Coro - High Def - Available Now!!

**MassiveDVD** · May 21st, 2009, 03:11 PM

Every Tuesday night the students of the ConceptArt.Org Atelier gather 'round for a round of Alla Prima portrait painting. El Coro runs the show, which is to say that he leads by example and occasionally walks around with a stick to keep the kids in line. He also makes a lot of jokes, though a few of the jokes had to be set aside to make way for the nonstop barrage of painting wisdom contained in this video. Coro begins with good solid basics: his materials, setting up the palette, and the general proportions of a head. The rest of the video is a painting demonstration covering topics ranging from paint application, color, value, form, and overall approach. If painting were a potato, this video would be one hot potato!

The DELUXE HD version is 1280x720 and includes a second portrait (without narration). 1 hour 41 minutes of content. $30
The SD version is 1024x576 and contains one portrait. 1 hour 14 minutes of content. $20

Looking forward to all the reviews and portraits!! and remember:
It is by will alone that I set my mind in motion. I will practice heads this month. My practice makes me better.

Great! I loved Coro's oil paintings so much so I don't want to miss this one! Anyway I hope this won't be released in streaming....

**el coro** · May 22nd, 2009, 02:12 AM

wow cool to see peeps interested in this one...we had alot of fun making this video. i love painting portraits...honestly its one of my favorite things to do artwise.
i live to tuesday nights because we have an alla prima class over at the atelier.
there's something about trying to capture a persons likeness that just never gets old. its amazing. and its excellent practice. you cant ever know the planes of the head well enough. i feel like i learn something new every time i sit down to paint someone.

Brashen: dude, trust me, paint is paint. the working rules are different but the visual principals are the same. i feel like painting in more than one medium really opens the doors to experimentation. im always incorporating things ive learned with oils into my digital work, and vice versa.

blah blah blah...anyway, im excited to hear what you all think of it once its out, and i hope you get something out of it...

thanks again for the interest guys.

**Xeom** · May 22nd, 2009, 09:11 AM

Sweet remember seeing some coro head paintings a good while ago. Mostly remember thinking id really like to take a lesson with him about it one day.

Now my dream is realized(mostly)!

**john_d** · May 22nd, 2009, 09:28 AM

Dreams really do come true!

**Brashen** · May 22nd, 2009, 09:30 AM

Coro dont get me wrong I appreciate all mediums, I mean watching Greg paint 'Above the Timberline' was a truly humbling experience. My education in art was very non conventional I jumped from drawing directly into photoshop. So I've been ring to get back to the root of painting for the last 2 years.

Anyways it's excellent your doing this!!

**petitemistress** · May 22nd, 2009, 09:38 AM

mmmm do want.
must... find... cash...

ps: did no one else giggle at "head painting with Coro"? ...no? oh well...

**kraal** · May 22nd, 2009, 10:56 AM

when i first read the title it regestered as 'face painting' so i was thinking more of the carnival/ airbrush stuff.... but i see i was wrong. This seems to be anouther good one to show how to be creative without the 'undo' crutch

**Jaco521** · May 22nd, 2009, 02:32 PM

You guys rock - thanks Coro . . . will pick this up immediately .. .

**Frank Gressie** · May 22nd, 2009, 06:40 PM
