    Rae, I love you but Betterhelp is a really shady bussiness. They aren't even legally required to pair you up with a real therapist. Most of the times, they will just pair you up with an amateur or someone who's still in college. I get the therapist they provided for you has been able to actually help you and that you probably didn't even know most of their therapists aren't real therapists but just be aware of the fact that most of their employees don't actually have the proper credentials next time they offer to sponsor you, signed a mental health advocate.

      They also refuse to accept insurance. Of any kind. I tried. All they want is money, they don't actually care about your mental health. I heavily suggest that if you want or need a therapist, please go to a local one or nearby enough to drive to. In this day and age, most will offer over the phone or video call therapy if in-person can't be done. Betterhelp is a scam and they're not helpful in regards to payment. Yeah, payment plans, but I have no money (as many others as well) and only have insurance, so. Thanks Betterhelp for saying those with money matter more than those without.

    Little fun experience I had a couple days ago
    I have a type of paint at home that's mostly used in schools and is very accessable: tempera gouache. While it's kinda okay, not only the containers are ridiculously small, the paint isn't as opaque as I would like it.
    So I took some paint (I tested with black since I barely use it) and mixed some stuff: with body moisturizer (just to increase the amount of paint), toothpaste (thickening and amount), corn starch and incense ashes (idk, I had it around me).
    Unsurprisingly, the corn starch, body moisturizer and the ashes worked for their purpose. And the toothpaste lightened up the black (not too much, but it did), and applied to other colors, it made them a little more unsaturated (which is great, the brightness of the green kinda angers me).
    In conclusion: my weird ass experiment worked and I'm turning it into a new hack.

    • @hawkeyescoffee6399
      @hawkeyescoffee6399 Год назад +3

      Toothpaste often contains a mild bleaching agent. I've ruined enough tops when it's dripped on it (even when cleaning it off quickly), so that explains the lightening effect. It's an interesting thing to keep in mind though when you want that effect in your paint. I actually wonder if it would work after the paint was dry: like a small mix of toothpaste & water on a brush or whatever...kinda like a milder form of when people tie dye/fabric paint with bleach on black T-shirts etc. Hmm

  • @PixiePrincess501
    @PixiePrincess501 2 года назад +183

    Regarding the glycerin: I don't know about using it to extend acrylics, but if you have watercolors from the tube in a pallet and have issues with the paint getting all crackly and crumbly when dry, a tiny drop of glycerin actually prevents it, and also gives the paint more life! (I don't know how to explain it, but it keeps the paint soft enough to reactivate so much more easier than before!)
    I use this method for both my watercolors and gouache paints.

  • @johanneshalberstadt3663
    @johanneshalberstadt3663 2 года назад +56

    Since you asked, what glycerin is: Glycerin is a trivalent alcohol, meaning it has three functional -OH (oxygen and hydrogen atoms) alcohol groups. The molecule just consists of three carbon atoms in a row, to each of which one alcohol group is attached, making it the smallest possible trivalent alcohol in organic chemistry. Glycerin acts as an emulsifier, meaning it can make polar and non-polar liquids (like oil vs water) mix together, and has strong humectant qualities, meaning it attracts water to itsself. This is also why it is used in cosmetics as it helps to pull moisture into the outer layers of the skin. Glycerin exists in basically every living creature, since it is such a fundamental building block and functional compound. Glycerin is the base molecule of nutritional fats and oils, which consist of a glycerin molecule and three fatty acids that bind with their acid group to each of the three alcohol groups of the glycerin. Glycerin can also be used as a cosmetic or household cleanser, as it can bind to and break up fatty residue but also dissolve in water. For cosmetic use it should be cosmetic or pharmaceutical grade, which is purer and cleaner. It can even be used as part of enemas (don't do yourself), breaking up the constipation.

I've been on this medication regiment almost 12yrs now. It works for the best part, I still have my off days like anyone. The best advice I can give to anyone going through similar or worse mental health issues, DON'T GIVE UP! Keep trying new medicines, seek out a psychological, identity with your feelings so you know when a medication is working or not, don't expect overnight results (most meds take 2-3wks. to build up in the system so they can work) LASTLY & MOST IMPORTANTLY ***JUST BECAUSE YOU FEEL BETTER, DO NOT STOP YOUR MEDICATION!

    I've made egg tempera from pigment powders, and that way you can make a paint which is more like oil paint. Egg tempera has been traditionally used to paint religious icons, it's a really beautiful technique.
    The prison hack reminded me of how I made a gingerbread house before the holidays, and I'd forgotten that I didn't have any food colourings.

    To preserve your oil paint on your pallet especially when you've mixed that perfect colour just add a few drops of clove oil to cotton wool, place it on the pallet and cover with a box or a cheap roasting dish.

    one of my best "hacks" is making acrylic paints into Alcohol Acrylics ... mix acrylic paint with isopropyl alcohol and a Paint medium (like Matt medium) or corn/potato starch. if you thin it a lot with alcohol it start actually looking like you paint with copics ^^ also it drys within seconds so its awesome if you don't want to wait for the paint to dry. but best mix it in a container with a lid as it fast evaporates if left open

    That's the legit same exact bottle of glycerin i have.🤣🤣 Glycerin is a humectant so it brings moisture from the surrounding area into it. Honey is a humectant also, which is why it is used in watercolor as a binder and keeps it MOIST even when you squeeze it into a pan to dry.
    Edit: Except the glycerin I have I use for skin care not art.🤣🤣

    Since seeing this vid for the first time, I've [in part because of how awesome your art is] started learning drawing and painting, mostly with Japanese watercolors (and omg has it been fun, and so very helpful for my mental health too, thank you!!!).. Two things noticed on that hack was the vegetable glycerin often is one of the binders in watercolor, often used with honey and gum arabic. The second is that the video clip of the hack seems to be adding it to the acrylic on/in a wet palette, which, [thanks to a Jazza video] is used to keep the acrylic paint wet for longer, sometimes a couple days or more, so it makes sense it would in that context dry more slowly. Also, bonus third, it's totally possible to learn how to art through some of the top art creators here on YT!

I really liked the egg tempera one and the sweets/body lotion method - I think I might give them both a go. I especially liked the shades of the sweet/body lotion paint. I thought it has a really nice dream-like quality to it. I have a friend that's more arty than I'll probably ever be so I'm going to send her the link to this video and see what she thinks.

    Big hugs for your mental health, Rae and anyone who reads this.
    I’ve been quietly dealing with depression completely alone and by myself with no real help. You are not alone in this feeling. May is hard for me, my family and I don’t get along well, and May is Mother’s Day and my dad’s birthday, before mine finally hits. And my birthday is always consistently shit, to the point where I now avoid the day and nearly every May 25th I feast on wine and my own tears. But I am still required to call my mother and father on their days. My mother had me in tears in less than 5 minutes. My father in due to call the 24th… not looking forward to it at all.
    Anyway. Thanks for the lovely video Rae. I look forward to messing with some of these paint hacks when I have more space to do my crafts again.

      If you mean egg tempera then yes it will go extremely bad within hours and smell like hell. Any unused paint needs to be DESTROYED or you will never eat eggs again. But it is extremely stable once painted and may last as long as oil colours.

      The projects won't smell after they dry the paint on the other hand.

Now I only eat eggs if they are wrapped up in a burrito so they don't have a smell.

      On the painting, no. It'll stop smelling of egg after a while, when dry. Source: My art teacher did this with us in high school as a project; we made our own egg tempera then painted with it. She made us dispose of any unused paint, so idk if that would have spoiled.

    Glycerin is really useful to have on hand as an artist. I use it in my homemade watercolors, and to bring my jelly gouache back to the jelly consistency. In acrylics, even though it does sheer it out a bit, it’s really great if you’re trying to get a good blend on a large area - like a sunset, where you really want to take the time to get a consistent ombré across the whole sky without one side drying while you’re working. Obviously there are blending and drying mediums you can buy, too, but that’s where glycerin is best in acrylic, IMO. And subtle shifts, like skin tones, as you said.

    yah glycerin? I have been using this and you kinda have find out what works for you. Ive had paintings where Ive had to wait for it to dry but i could come back and still work on it. I don't use it all the time. I have a little side plastic container (you know the one with the white cap, find them in walmart or dollar tree) but occasionally and depending on what Im doing with acrylic painting, I'll just dip the tip of my brush in the glycerin. Not alot and not over saturated it with glycerin. And watch your brush strokes with it. I'll use it if i really dont want to use water. Its what is in your acrylic paint anyway. Not sure if any of that made sense lol but yah lol

    For anyone saying anything about better help... please don't just assume it's bad bc of some random tweets or videos. I'm a nobody and have no horse in that race but I personally use better help and I love it. The cost first off is literally thousands of dollars cheaper than what I was paying a previous in person therapist. But also they did most of the work to find a good therapist specifically for me rather than having to go through different ones in person until you're comfortable with someone and thousands of dollars later. also i communicate how I want to, I sometimes do it by text but other times phone calls and video chat. Idk... all I'm saying is for anyone saying anything.... have YOU actually tried it or are you simply bashing a company bc of some random comments and videos? Genuinely and truly betterhelp has helped me work through some dark stuff recently.. really dark. I can honestly say I'm probably still here bc of the work I did along with the therapist. 🤷🏼‍♀️
