Try Doing This to Create Maximum Impact In Acrylic Paintings

- As an artist, it is important for creative growth not to allow ourselves to stay stagnated in routine for very long. In this video, I challenge myself to explore a different approach to my painting than I would normally do. Instead of starting on a light colored or white canvas, I decided to tone my canvas a deep burgundy red color. Colors applied on top of such a deep and rich color look very different than colors applied to a light background. It was a fun and challenging experiment, and I ended up pleased with the final outcome. The deep, rich jewel tones exude a warm and exciting energy. Painting on a dark surface challenged the way I perceive color, value and color temperature.
Colors I used were:
quinacridone magenta
Ultramarine blue
Hookers green
Green gold
Payne's gray
Cadmium yellow medium,
Titanium white
Unbleached titanium
Tools I used were a Princeton brand Catalyst silicone wedge and a #10 filbert brush. I also used glazing liquid as a medium to create transparency and viscosity to my paint.

Such a pleasure to watch, you make such beautiful paintings
Thank you.
I really love the darker background! I painted a floral one with that in mind and posted it it's a darkish pink burgundy in the back as well. I was quite happy with it! Thanks Kathleen for the inspiration!!!
That's amazing, Cody. I love that you got inspiration from my videos.
Lovely effect. Thank you for sharing.
Thanks, I am glad you enjoyed it.
Votre toile est sublime 💜🩷❤️ merci beaucoup pour vos partages 😊
Thanks you for watching.
Watching you paint is so interesting... you make it seem so effortless! Thanks so much for sharing your process with us. This painting is beautiful
Thank you, I’m glad you enjoyed it. Painting with the wedge is somewhat effortless for me, I’ve been painting for many years. But each painting still has its challenges, and this was a fun one. I can’t wait to tackle that bronze canvas. Happy painting!
another beautiful work of art.. these videos propel me to keep working with the wedge.. as of yet I have not had very much success.. just blobs of color.. you make it seem very easy to use.. but in reality it is a struggle.. also could you show more of your palette when you dip the wedge into the paint.. thank-you and may God Bless You and Yours.. Dorothy
@@woodseysmith9582 Hi Dorothy! Always nice to see your comments on my videos. Yes, I've never claimed that the wedge was an easy tool. 🙂 I believe my RUclips hydrangea demo shows my color palette and the way I pick up paint with my wedge. I'm sure I will show more like that in the future. Thanks for the suggestion. Happy painting!
I love this tutorial! I also love the periwinkle color with the dark background. I second the request for a video about how you approach composition. I’m glad you started a RUclips channel!
Thanks! Sure thing, I will do a video about composition in the future. I already have my next video already lined up, but I will try to get to one about composition in October. Thanks for the suggestion.
Hallo Kathleen, ich finde Ihr Video sehr inspirierend und den dunklen Untergrund sehr unteressant. Ist im Gegensatz zur weißen Leinwand etwas gewöhnungsbedürftig, das Endergebnis gefällt mir sehr gut. Die Farbanmischungen sind absolut gelungen und kommen auf dunklem Untergrund gut zum strahlen. Ihre Technik, mit einem Katalyst zu arbeiten, ist neu für mich. Ich werde es aber gerne ausprobieren, ebenso das Malen auf dunkler Leinwand. Vilen Dank, dass Sie Ihre Idee mit uns geteilt haben. Herzliche Grüsse Ina❤
Hi Ina! Thanks so much!! I am so happy you found value in my video this week. Happy painting!!
Beautiful. Thanks for sharing.
I am glad you enjoyed it. Thanks for watching.
Espetacular! O fundo da tela em tons mais profundos lembra muito os gênios do século XVII, holandeses, espanhóis. Amo sua pintura!
I am honored! Thank you for the kind words!
I love this painting with all the rich and beautiful colors wich create a lovely depth to the painting. Thank you for sharing ❤💚🧡💜💙
Thank you! I am so happy you enjoy the colors as much as I do.
Love your work. I like the dark backgrounds myself! Makes all the other colors stand out!!
it does! Thanks.
The more I see this deep background....it's just gorgeous! Love tge idea of your metallic canvas as well. Big fan over here!
Thanks Cindy! I plan to film a demo on that bronze canvas soon!
Hi Kathleen! I love to watch you paint - I always feel so inspired afterwards! I do have two questions. First, how long would you estimate it took for you to complete this painting? Second, do you varnish your paintings and, if so, what do you use? Thanks so much for sharing your beautiful work and talent with us!
Thanks for your questions. My paintings usually take one or 2 hours to complete, regardless of size. I always have an idea for how I want to execute my painting before I begin, but also allow myself to take it in a different direction if it starts evolving differently. For example, I was not sure how my colors would react on such a deep colored background, so I made adjustments along the way (the additions of periwinkle, red violet and deep orange), which were spontaneous decisions. I do like working quickly because it keeps my paintings feeling fresh and not overworked. But I think that kind of confidence comes from years of painting. Regarding varnish, I always varnish with a UV protectant, professional brand varnish such as Liquitex, Golden or Winsor & Newton. Sometimes I use a spray varnish and sometimes a liquid varnish. I don't really have a preference. I do have a short varnishing video here: ruclips.net/user/shortsKW9syaDsmQ8?si=A5zFBF5k2MKNulS1
Thank you, yes this was very inspiring to watch. If I could see the painting in person I’d be tempted to just sit and involve myself with the texture and color movements, much like a large Monet canvas… 🙏🏻 I can’t wait to explore your other videos and try this approach for myself. ❤️ thanks.
Thanks for the great comment. I understand what you mean...I love sitting and looking at paintings for hours, allowing myself to get lost in their details and learning what I can. Thank you.
Love it❤
Thank you!
Love your work ❤ thank you for sharing
Thank you!
I love your experimental masterpiece! ❤ I have been experimenting too!
Thanks Cody! You certainly have been creating gorgeous work lately. I'm so happy to see that.
The first part of the painting, red & green combo, is Stunning. The 2nd part (almost like 2 seperate paintings) is Bold & Beautiful. Your "experimenting", and using a dark background bore great fruit.
Thank you. I liked the painting when it was mostly red and green, but felt it could benefit from the addition of some other colors. That periwinkle was the ticket, I think! Can't wait to get at my other dark canvases that I have prepped and waiting.
Wunderschönes Bild ❤
thank you.
Gorgeous!
thanks
Bellissimo Bravo 👏👏
thank you!
Love love
thanks!
