Greg Manchess, Painting Poe

It’s been years since we’ve gotten to do a demo with Greg Manchess, so we are really excited about making this one finally happen.

In this video you’ll see world-renowned illustrator, Gregory Manchess, take a black and white photo and reinterpret it in full color using oil paints. Captured entirely in real-time, watch him paint and explain his choices while inventing vibrant, life-like flesh tones on the fly.

This demo is moderated by fellow illustrator, Dan dos Santos, who asks Greg an array of questions while he works, offering additional insight into the artist’s thought processes and influences.
