Sorolla: Painting the Color of Light

 With this exclusive video training, you will learn:

• The working methods and incredible techniques of Sorolla (Claude Monet even called him "the master of light")
• The way he actually applied the paint to produce such a stunning end result
• How Sorolla conveyed the intensity of light in his paintings
• The value of working at a fast pace so you're not even thinking while you paint

Joaquín Sorolla is one of the most respected painters ever to have lived.

The way he mastered the color of light is something other artists dream about...

...yet can never quite pull off. 

Though one person who has mastered it is Thomas Jefferson Kitts — a modern master in the color of light. 

That is why we are beyond delighted to make this announcement:

We managed to persuade Kitts to come to our studios to film what will surely go down as one of the great art trainings of all time captured on camera. 

In this release from Streamline Art Video, Kitts shows you how to paint like Sorolla.

It's like breathing life into a painting when you master the use of color in light.

John Singer Sargent … the  great master painter of timeless portraits and elegant figures. His paintings have inspired and influenced artists for over a century. But due to limited documentation, artists have been trying for decades to understand Sargent’s techniques. 

 Wouldn’t it be great to understand Sargent’s methods to help you become a better painter?

Artist Thomas Jefferson Kitts has been on a lifelong quest to understand how Sargent painted. Was Sargent slow and deliberate, or fast and reckless? After intense study, Kitts believes he’s found the answers artists have been searching for. We asked him to capture these techniques on video for all to discover.

Through this video, you can immerse yourself in an in-depth exploration of Sargent’s working methods. Follow along as Thomas Jefferson Kitts paints a full start-to-finish demonstration of an original painting, Up in the Old Apple Tree. Through his painting, in the style of Sargent, you’ll get a glimpse of how the master may have painted two figures in authentic period costumes.
