    @wifernwifern No problem. Thanks for tuning in. The paint I used is interior latex with a satin or eggshell sheen. The cloudsd are the same paint. I think I used Behr ultra pure white from Home Depo and added my other colors to that. I used quarts of red yellow and blue from Sherwin Williams. It's all the same kind of paint though. If you need slower drying time, then wait a day between coats. a freshly dried coat speeds the dry time of additional coats on top.

    @muraljoe  11 лет назад +7

    you can use anything. I find acrylic latex wall paint to be the easiest because it floes out quickly and dries fast so you can add layers. you may find blending difficult with the fast dry time. Floetrol helps a lot with that. you can see more about that in my vid, Common Questions. Hope this helps you. Thanks for watching.

    Behr ultra pure white, interior, eggshell for the white. The red, yellow and blue I think are Sherwin Williams. They have a red base and a bright yellow base that I like to use. The blue is the ultra deep base with 12 ounces of blue tint added. I use these primaries to mix all of my colors.

    Thank you very much! I only do commission work so far but I may do more work on canvas in the future. I am presently tossing around the idea of doing workshops for folks looking for some instruction. For me, teaching is more fun than doing. I really appreciate your compliments.

    Hi Joe! Wow...Love your work! I am doing a kitchen remodel and I needed a clever solution to utilize a ceiling box-light frame that once housed fluorescent bulbs. I painted the frame and ceiling a beautiful white, (will now install recessed can lights on the outer perimeter) and paint a lovely sky mural within the frame~ thanks to your influence!! BRAVO! Problem solved...Will check out your videos too!

    @Akaliko If you're not bothered by the fumes of the oil and the thinner, then the oil will give you more workability. I always have to move faster because I use the water base. However, oil base paints apply slower than water base. Kinda like spreading peanut butter vs applesauce. Thanks for the question.

    Hi Darja. Just because I mixed the colors on the wall doesn't mean that you have to. Have you watched my other video "How to Paint Clouds In a Room"? It is much more discriptive on what paint to use and technique. This video is a good example of a way to layout the shapes of the clouds. Thank you for watching.

    You needed more light in your clouds with a touch of reddish-orange hues running at the topmost edges near your sunlight perspective. It just brings a little more life into them suggesting movement. Nice work though.

    • @sharexoshowxo
      @sharexoshowxo 4 года назад

      @Joe actually, I'm an artist. I was just making a suggestion on how light travels in nature and hits objects. Clouds are vapour and light reacts differently on them. Movement of light and refraction is dependent on the contours of the object it hits. I was only making an observation and suggestion. It wasn't meant as anything but that. Sorry, but I'd want the critique to improve my art. Carry on.
