    I just think you are super super lovely. If I’m having a bad day (which I do, a lot) I put on one of your videos, and ahhhhhhh, so much better. Thank you, I know these videos must take a lot of time and effort, but I just want to say how grateful I am for them.

    Thank. you. When you said : One doesn't need to have an agenda just to get something going, this is a click for me. This is the first time I am viewing you as I just learned of you from another youtuber. Thank you for sharing your process. I feel so much more lighthearted in knowing it's not all about figuring it out ahead of time; which actually is what I have perceived as a block to my work, a judgement of, why don't. you know where you are going? Artists keep journals! Do series! Artists are pragmatic and know where they are going! Studying art can become so technical for me, overwhelming as in: where is the fun? Thank you for your chill teaching.

    @aletagudelski6414 2 года назад +1

    Thanks. This was very helpful. You were so relaxed as you worked. I could see how you applied some of the principles to create transition right. The less saturated colors were also interesting as well as different shapes and sizes. But, I find that the discipline of timed work periods the most helpful.
    I look forward to seeing this painting develop. Thanks for this video.

One day maybe, it would be so good to take your CVP workshops. Much thanks, again.

    It was like a first grader playingthen you added shade of off white and I thought why did he not do first. Then when you used trowl and intwined things and made them all one. It took on a life of its own. It was btilliant. Where do you buy the large amount of paint. Oh my, such freedom, yet such a strong and wonderfull system.

  • @ElizabethBurleigh
    @ElizabethBurleigh Год назад

    I’m so interested that you put on the background AFTER laying out the shapes. If you do it so that the background color doesn’t affect the pure color of the shapes it makes sense to me. As I recall, the impressionists painted on white rather than a pained background for that reason.😅

    Do these sticks work with Acrylics? Thanks for this, Nick! Fun! 💖

    • @pastelsgirl
      @pastelsgirl 3 года назад +4

      It is recommended not to mix acrylics with oil paints. What you could do is working your background (or the first later, or layers) in acrylics, let them dry, and then come in and work with oils (sticks, paints, whatever) on top of acrylics. Never the other way around, due to the very different chemical properties of both acrylics and oils respectively. Think “oil and water don’t mix together”.
      I hope this helps. Good luck!
