Hi Maria, I have been trying to replicate the results (no sound) on my devices and I am getting sound for my recent videos. I will have to relay your experience to the Patreon support team and see if I can get a response.

In patreon app No sound in ipad, but sound in samsung tablet....
Maria quirk
Yes
Stephen Bauman Artwork
Is this while trying to access the videos via the Patreon app?
Maria quirk
No sound for me as well... I’ll try Phyllis Way...
Stephen Bauman Artwork
Cool- the Patreon app is a bit of a bummer :(
Stephen Bauman Artwork
For sure. These vids are on the list!

Hi Stephen, your paintings are amazing! I find the blending in oil portraits particularly challenging. Would really appreciate if you could do a video exclusively on how to blend skin tones using oil paints. I mean the technique. Thank you in advance 😊
Phyllis Riley
Ok I googled Patreon and logged in and I have sound so it’s the app that’s an issue. Thanks!!!!
Phyllis Riley
Stephen I’m using the Patreon app. I know you gave instructions on a better way to watch but I can no longer find those instructions.
Klemens Kilic
I appreciate your work a lot, Stephen. Please consider to do a full still life composition from beginning to the very end - academic style. Thanks in advance!
Stephen Bauman Artwork
Very strange indeed. Just so I can try to diagnose- many I ask what web browser you are using? And if you are using the navigation website to get to the posts?

I get sound on part 2 curriculum live..everything except the new 3,4 and 5 videos .
Phyllis Riley
Says I have the highest volume but it’s silent.
Phyllis Riley
Yes I did check the volume. It says I have but I don’t. I’ve watched several other videos no problem. Strange. I’ll keep trying thanks.
Stephen Bauman Artwork
That is correct- it's still drying actually.
Stephen Bauman Artwork
Just checking, but there is also a volume control on the bottom right of the video window- have you checked that one also?
Phyllis Riley
I get sound on the live stream just fine.
Phyllis Riley
No sound

This is really a wonderfull painting!! The detail, the harmony of the colours and the overall impression are perfect. And all the videos were so informative and educational. Thank you for all that and the inspiration! :)

when the painting is finished, do you oil the canvas to have all the right colors, shades, chroma, value, etc., or do you wait for it to dry and then apply a non-permanent varnish.
Stephen Bauman Artwork
The latter, for sure.

Awesome series! Quick(ish?) question: As a student, painting in color from one of the photos, do you think it would be better to: A. Try to match the colors I'm seeing in the photo - or - B. Work from a more conceptual model of color (ie a color model I create or one I take from another similar painting)
Stephen Bauman Artwork
Perhaps, For sure the familiarity with the form and structure of the face in this light and pose is irreplaceable.

great to see it all come together! do you think there's something unique with the color layer over grisaille method that you wouldn't have gotten with a direct method?
