You are so brilliant at padding information! Thank you for allowing to educate the dormant artist inside me and allow me to be knowledgeable before dipping into it !
This was a GREAT tutorial! I learned a ton in a short amount of time. I will certainly refer to this video again and again. Thank you for sharing your knowledge. You are a natural teacher and obviously a gifted artist.
I don’t think you quite grasp what “standing the test of time” actually means and/or when to use the phrase.. Also, the content isn’t excellent. The information is good. The content, however, is not excellent . There are so many things this guy does to bring down the quality of the vid. For instance, even if the vid is going to be a minute long, use a canvas, they are extremely cheap, but not as cheap or cheap looking as cardboard. Because of the cardboard, the brush strokes are wavy, which isn’t something you want in a video about brush technique. It’s confusing to a beginner. Also, he jumps in with an edit in order to explain a mistake he made, instead of just reshooting it or re-recording it which would be really easy to do. it’s not very professional at all… and those are just just a couple examples. The channel could be much more if the creator put more effort into it. Why do I care? I don’t.
I'd rather put the effort into making my art better and let the video suffer. Clearly my style of video isn't for you. I hope you find someone you feel does a better job.
I’ve not painted a lot, but I start doing it more, I’ve realized that my brushes tend to just leave a spot of paint and then a bit of a drag across my canvas, which I’ve ignored so far but I am not sure what I am doing wrong or if it is just my brushes
Thank you for this video, am wondering if you know how to create waves with brushes, do you just use a dry brush or make waves with a brush, thanks 🙏 jake
Such an informative video, I took notes and learned SOOOOOOO much. Also I must mention how cool it is that you are so 'real' in your manner 😊 When you said a crap load of paint I actually laughed cause that is exactly an expression I would use 😂😂 Thanks again ❤️
I'm a beginner trying to not struggle, I'm dealing with layering a paint but when I brush I see the brush strokes visible. Is there a way to make my paint look solid clear like Opaque
Great video! I hope you can answer my inquire.. need help! I bought some acrylic paints and joint compound to do a wall art design I thought lol using mixed paint with Spackle.. now they want a basic art piece using acrylic paints on a 23x28 canvas! Light gray first layer on canvas with white large Strokes over the gray with some gray showing Once the gray dries and I’m on to the next step by using the white acrylic paint over the gray, I thought about mixing it with some spackle to give it some texture but I do need a bigger paintbrush for the larger, white strokes that they are requesting I don’t have a video on it, but she showed me a picture of it. Thank you whew! Family lol Help! Lol
I do have an old video where I talk about using JC as molding paste, but my results were very much like "this probably is a bad idea for canvas." ruclips.net/video/0d-x2uuZhz0/видео.html However, there's lots of comments from other artist who talk about their experience mixing their own mixes for projects, so there does seem to be a way to use it effectively to some degree though IMO I don't recommend it for a texture medium, especially straight out of the bucket. Feel free to email me regarding the project with the picture in question. Though I do think it might be on you to have not taken a commission without knowing how to do it first (at least that's what jumps out to me)
@@cinderblockstudios it’s my daughters new home I offered she was like mom just create it.. then I bring all of my paints and she shows me a picture of something she likes not a how to video but a picture😆if it turns out not so well it will be on her I’m visual and I just flow.. but I’ll do my best and Thank you so much not responding. I was thinking about that all day and hoping to respond back. Thank you for your time. I appreciate it and the video definitely will go check it out. Have a wonderful rest of your day.🥳
This is VERY helpful, thank you! (I am very distracted and a bit turned off, however, every time you use the expression, "crap-load of paint". If you want to come across as a professional, maybe just say, "a lot of paint" or "a blob of paint." Just my point of view, over the age of 45...
Interesting. I had an earlier comment that basically said the opposite, and that it made the content more relatable. Not that I mind the critique, but I prefer to keep my presentation down to earth.
Really nice video and explanation
One of the best tutorials on youtube thank you

to the point and much appreciated! Thanks
Thank you!! I'm brand new to painting and these fundamentals are REALLY, REALLY helpful!! I appreciate that you took the time to do this.
Cvccqcccccccqtccctm.
that 5 sec made tree is very beautiful
Excellent! Thank you for such a clear explanation. Best wishes from London UK.
Great - just what I was looking for as a beginner. Thank you.
Thank you for your explaination it will certainly help me to move forward
Thank you. Informative video. I learned a few things I did not know
Thank you so much! I was struggling a little bit and this was helpful.
this video really stands the test of time - 4 years after it's release. excellent content!

Well pardon me, perhaps you should make painting tutorials yourself if it's so easy.
@@cinderblockstudios or you could just try a little harder at everything you do and benefit tremendously

Thank you so much, what is in that big red bottle on the right?
You're very welcome! There's nothing in the bottle anymore, I often paint empty bottles as a side project. That one was originally clear
I’ve not painted a lot, but I start doing it more, I’ve realized that my brushes tend to just leave a spot of paint and then a bit of a drag across my canvas, which I’ve ignored so far but I am not sure what I am doing wrong or if it is just my brushes
Not quite sure what you're describing. Feel free to email me with pictures so I can help you out
Thanks for the tutorial. I have been watching some of the same youtubers and wanted something new. Glad I found you.
Thank you for this video, am wondering if you know how to create waves with brushes, do you just use a dry brush or make waves with a brush, thanks 🙏 jake
Do you mean like ocean waves or wavy shapes? If we're talking about painting an ocean scene, every artist will have varying methods of doing that
Thank You!
I'm doing it now. Thank you very much.
Such an informative video, I took notes and learned SOOOOOOO much. Also I must mention how cool it is that you are so 'real' in your manner 😊 When you said a crap load of paint I actually laughed cause that is exactly an expression I would use 😂😂 Thanks again ❤️
Thanks. IMO if you want to teach art you have to be real about it.
Great Video. Thank you.
very insightful. thanks'
I'm a beginner trying to not struggle, I'm dealing with layering a paint but when I brush I see the brush strokes visible. Is there a way to make my paint look solid clear like Opaque
A soft bristled brush and a low viscosity paint will get you there...as long as you're using quality paint of course.
I really appreciate this video!! It really helped me as a beginning painter!
Clear and fun.
Thank you for this!
Great video!

i have a trouble of making a long stroke with acrylic like the last stroke you've made. the paint wont last long in my brush and it just starts fading
Try a thinner paint
