Helllooo Everyone! So excited to share with you my latest sponge painting. It's a tutorial I think you won't want to miss! If you haven't subscribed, please do. I would also really appreciate a thumbs up on this video. Thank you and have a great day ❤❤😁😁👍👍
Soraya I love your sponge technique🥰Do you wash the sponges after use and reuse them again on other paintings or do you discard them. And always use new clean spong?
@@SoulArtist1 Hi! I always wash and let dry completely, then reuse. If I have forgotten, then they are too crusty and unfortunately, I have to start with a new one....lol Hope that helps. Have a great day and thanks for watching!
"And that's OK"...I've been using that phrase as I paint now. I am newer to painting and have so enjoyed your videos. You are a gem! Thank you for your honest approach and for your beautiful art you share with all of us!! ❤
Soraya I love the texture in this piece and the way it's created is amazing...I love how you change up your sponges and brushes...you really are awesome in all you do...I love the burnt Sienna background...this makes for such a dramatic piece...I love it!
I’m going from this Vedic into my studio to paint using your method. I can’t express how much you’ve inspired me and freed me to express beauty like you do. 😍😊
I love how the Burnt Sienna adds light and contrast and warmthh to this beautful painting. The waves appear to be swelling up as the cloudy sky hints of a coming storm. The more I look at this painting, the more I am drawn in. What a remarkable and beautiful creation!! You rock it again!! 💖
. HELLO THANKS FOR SHARING YOUR WAY OF PAINTING WITH A SPONGE. THIS WILL BE GREAT FOR ME TO USE AS SPACE PICS. I LOVE YOUR PAINTINGS. LOVE JOY PEACE AND HAPPINESS TO ALL.
i love how you work your brush and sponge to take the painting to another level. I understand what you mean by overwork until you're happy and don't worry about what other people say, how true and how right you are!!!
So dramatically stunning with th colors! Soraya I tend to over “overwork” my paintings until I’m satisfied with what I see. Don’ let anyone tell you that you “overwork” the painting. It’s your art and you are the artist👩🎨
It’s beautiful. Thank you so much for that great clouds, they’re very looking alive. You’re right, the feeling while painting is a happy meditation for oneself. Stay safe always.
Omg Soraya😮😍🤗❤ This is soooo gorgeous and you are such a talented woman! I love all the texture and light in this piece! It's great to see your process and it's so inspiring! 👌 Clouds are my nemesis 😂😅 I dont think i could evrr do something like this, though! 😊 Bravo
Hello, Soraya~ 🤗 I'm surprised you used a normal sponge to create dramatic clouds. The colors are so beautiful, too. It's a wonderful work created by your amazing hands.😍🌺
Dans votre peinture, je vois un superbe ciel plutôt dramatique et qui prend un bon espace, des chaînes montagneuses puis le premier plan. Ce qui est bien c'est que, l'imagination vagabonde, cette toile peut représenter différentes choses selon le regard que l'on pose. C'est vraiment magnifique, je vous félicite !
Merci beaucoup. J’apprécie vraiment que vous puissiez voir ces choses dans mon travail. Cela me touche beaucoup que cela vous parle. Merci d'avoir regardé.
Its a brilliant idea and it looks better than brush painted ones, but how did you think of it? And what is your brush painting like are you really competant?
Thank you so very much 😁 Because I’m putting so little paint at a time it dries very quickly. If you want to have the colours blend then add while still wet. Hope that helps. Thanks for watching 😁
very pretty, do you use slow drying medium or glazing medium to keep the paints from drying as you are blending? I do the same just let my imagination take over, lots of fun.
Another gorgeous sponge painting!!!! I just love you and your painting. I appreciate your explaining so well. Ok, I tried the sponge. I’m wondering if I didn’t have enough paint on the sponge. I ended up using a brush and results aren’t the same. Also, can you reuse sponges once cleaned? The paint hardened and I ended up trimming old paint off. Thanks SO much!! Patti
Thank you so much Patti😀💖 I’m so glad to hear that you tried it. You will have to keep experimenting with the amount of paint. This will depend on how far you spread it and the area you want to cover. Not sure if that’s clear. So, in other words, small area , use less paint. You’ll get the feel for it. If the sponge you’re using is left for a long period of time then it will dry out. I use the same sponge but if I need to get a clean one, then I put the old sponge in water. I always clean , dry and reuse my sponges. Hope that helps. 😀
Thank you! I don’t prepare my canvas in any way. In this case I painted a base colour to go over a failed attempt at a painting. Otherwise if I’m working on a new canvas, I just start painting. No gesso. Nothing. Dry canvas. After the painting is done I leave it to cure for at least 2-3 days. I varnish with spray varnish. I find I get a nice smooth finish that way. Hope that helps. Thanks for watching from Australia! Wow😁
Beautiful. Normally when you keep working paint that way it comes off, how is she preventing that? Is this all one session or drying in between? Thank you
I’ve never had any issues with the paint coming off. I don’t add any water or additives. I use minimal amounts of paint and so it dries quickly. Most of this painting was done in one session. I completed it the next day. Hope that helps. Thanks for watching 😁
I love watching you!! Have watched multiple times, unfortunately when I tried the clouds they just didn't turn out right but maybe I'll try a few more times until I can get the technique😊
Hi, I love your work. I’ve been trying it myself, but have some challenges. Do you let each color dry on the canvas before switching colors. I think I blend mine too much and wind up with “browns.”
Thanks so much! When I apply the colours, it is with minimal amounts so most often they dry very quickly. I also am using colours that will blend beautifully even if they are wet. If you’re using colours on the opposite side of the spectrum you will get a muddy finish. Hope that helps. Please let me know how it goes 😀
Bonjour, je ne suis pas "fan" de peinture abstraite du tout, par contre les vôtres me parlent beaucoup. J'aime ce que vous faites et la façon dont vous le faites. Je peins à l'acrylique depuis plus de vingt cinq ans mais longtemps en dilettante. Il aura fallu que j'atteigne les cinquante ans pour m'y remettre et que ça devienne une passion. Très malade, je ne peux peindre autant que je le souhaiterais mais j'en rêve. J'aime la perspective atmosphérique, la brume dans les paysages et les tons de terre comme le sienne que vous avez utilisé en fond. Ces tons de terre se marient si bien. C'est un plaisir de vous regarder peindre. Connaissez-vous Sergueï Toutounov ? J'aime ce qu'il est et ce qu'il fait, vous pouvez trouver des vidéos de lui, qui datent un peu, sur RUclips. Bonne continuation à vous, et à bientôt !
Merci beaucoup. Je suis désolé d'apprendre que vous êtes malade. J'espère que vous récupérerez pour peindre. Comme toi, c'est ma passion. Je suis tellement heureuse que vous aimiez me regarder créer. Cela signifie beaucoup pour moi. Merci, et je vais le chercher. Tous mes vœux.

An ordinary sponge creating dramatic clouds? More like "Amazingly cool artwork that's enabled by darn good skills!" 👍
Lol, thank you! Very kind 😊💕
Loving this. I haven’t tried yet, I’m watching closely your paintings with the sponge making myself familiar with your technique.
Awesome! Thanks so much 😁🩷

I like it. It's different. It's as if you let the paint guide your hand.
At timestamp 13:41, imagined sun rays coming up from behind the clouds.

Yes, will try.
Great! Thanks for watching 😁

Hi. I love your work. Do you prime your canvas before toning?
Thank you! No I don’t prime it. In this case I created patterns and texture and let it dry. Then put the tone colour. Thanks for watching 😁
So beautiful!!!
Thank you!!
Wow that looks amazing ❤❤
Thanks so much 😁
역동적인 하늘과 파도가 인상적이네요 😊

Thank you 😁❤️
I am ON FIRE to try this! I just finished a painting I've been working on for over six months and my easel is empty. 💕
Wonderful! Let me know how it goes 😁 thanks for watching 💖
Its a brilliant idea and it looks better than brush painted ones, but how did you think of it? And what is your brush painting like are you really competant?
I’ve been using a sponge for many years. It came to me one day that it would be a good tool. I have many paintings that I use a brush as well.
Do you let layers dry in between different colours or just keep adding while wet. Your art your choice when to stop. You are very talented thank you.
Thank you so very much 😁 Because I’m putting so little paint at a time it dries very quickly. If you want to have the colours blend then add while still wet. Hope that helps. Thanks for watching 😁
Great upload
Thank you 👍
Very pretty, I will try this technique. Do you dilute your paint ?
Hi! Thanks. No I don’t dilute. If required I use a small drop of water. Thanks for watching 😁
I love it I shall have a go 😊❤
That’s great to hear! Thanks 😁
very pretty, do you use slow drying medium or glazing medium to keep the paints from drying as you are blending? I do the same just let my imagination take over, lots of fun.
