    No wonder I had so much trouble blending before... the little secret that so many youtube artists never shared -- a big thank you for helping me (a beginner) and all the other struggling "blenders" out there!!!

    • @GregLowmanArt
      @GregLowmanArt  Месяц назад +1

      It's just the name of the white paint that was used as an underlayer so that we could add the other colors and still get a wet on wet blend. Amazon link is in the description.

    • @GregLowmanArt
      @GregLowmanArt  3 месяца назад

      Yes just let it completely dry then you can continue to add layers on top

    Muy bueno. Gracias. Crees que podría reemplazar el uso de agua por algún medium? Y evitar que se apaguen los colores. O tal vez usar medium y menos agua. Gracias

    • @GregLowmanArt
      @GregLowmanArt  10 месяцев назад

      Claro, reemplazar un poco de agua con medio estará bien.

    Sometimes you got to get lucky and that's how I feel when I found your video by chance. How wonderful!!!!!!!!!!!! I needed that!!!!! I have some questions: 1 - Is your canvas w/ Gesso? 2 - How do you blend several colors like when you want to painy sunset sky? will you also use white to blend the colors or you'll blend the colors that are near each othre? Thank you sooooooo much. The video is so clear!!!!!!!! I'm looking to watch other videos🧡👋👋👋👋👋👋

    • @GregLowmanArt
      @GregLowmanArt  3 месяца назад

      Hi that’s great i’m glad that it helped and no i don’t use any gesso. You can use this exact same technique for multiple colors too

    Would using gesso instead of titanium white help blending without muting the colors?

    • @GregLowmanArt
      @GregLowmanArt  3 месяца назад

      No gesso is used to prep/smooth a canvas surface not to paint with

    Great video! Why did you mute the fluorescent paints with white first?

    • @GregLowmanArt
      @GregLowmanArt  Год назад +1

      It makes blending easier because you are blending into wet paint instead of blending into a dry canvas - just a trick for people for people who are having trouble.

  • @tinagreene7158
    @tinagreene7158 Год назад +4

    This is great! thank you for sharing. Have you ever done this on wood? And can it be adapted for smaller areas than the entire canvas? Love your colors btw

    • @GregLowmanArt
      @GregLowmanArt  Год назад +1

      Glad it helped and yes, you can blend on wood but may want to prime it first

  • @nancydunn3265

    How would this work with a clear acrylic extender? Thinking that might work well on larger canvas. Just a thought.

    • @ashlynjohnson2326
      @ashlynjohnson2326 7 месяцев назад

      Yes you just clean it between colors. If you have a second you can use it but cleaning the same one is just fine!

    Can I use any colour to size the canvas so that ind don’t get the dullness from white

    • @GregLowmanArt
      @GregLowmanArt  11 месяцев назад

      yes you can use other colors, doesn't have to be white

  • @noelnoel1029
    @noelnoel1029 Год назад

    So your dry brushes or wash brushes how do you clean them up? Just rinse with water? and let them dry?

    • @GregLowmanArt
      @GregLowmanArt  Год назад +1

      Yes, with any water-based paints (acrylics, watercolor, gauache, etc.) you can just rinse w/ water and let dry, but you'll need to use soap after oils.

    • @GregLowmanArt
      @GregLowmanArt  Год назад

      No, you'll want to use actual paint for this - gesso is used to prep/smooth a canvas.

  • @joeavelar2222
