    I painted two none never look as good as yours but they are loved. Painting these cows has been therapeutic for me since my daughter passed away. I’ve only painted five paintings in my life and I love 💗 these cows.

      @@michellethepainter. it was fantastic! Amazing video, easy to follow, beautiful results xxx my fellow painters didn't know how much water to use on brushes, so there are some dry parts, but it actually gave really nice texture and surprising results! We LOVED it ❤️ We opened now painting club and will be coming back to your videos for our painting and sip time ❤️ You are amazing!

    Greetings, Michelle, I was just sitting out on my porch, watching your video on painting the highland cow. When I looked up and I had two darling, Javelina‘s coming up to say hi. Of course I tried to get them to move on because they can be obnoxious. I was wondering if you would ever consider doing a colorful abstract Javelina painting like the Highland Cow. Living in Arizona we love our javelinas. I can’t imagine how many people will go crazy over this. Some thing to think about please please consider this. I would love to be able to be able to paint a colorful Javelina. Thank you for the consideration Patti.
    I love your teaching style!

      @@michellethepainter. hi again! If you would like photos of my cute but smelly javelinas I’d be happy to send you some. They visit me almost every night. When we moved to Sedona I foolishly started feeding the little beggars and then they told the whole family I had good snacks. I had 10 -15 of them at the door ready for dinner. They would let me know they were there by rattling the screen door until I came out. Yikes! I created a monster! But....the babies were hungry! The babies were so cute. Naughty but cute. I stopped feeding them because we weren’t home much because of a family member became ill and needed our help.
      I do miss the whole bunch of them but it’s safer and quieter.
      Consider painting one because no one has painted them in a cute fun way like your lovely pieces. Thank you for your inspiration you are so talented!!

    I love this kind of painting and gave it a try. I’m a beginner artist and found that my brushes dragged across the page. Does the canvas need to be prepared with gesso? Or are my brushes not the best quality? My brushes are from my teenage children’s art classes . Do the brushes need to be loaded with paint? I wonder if maybe I didn’t have enough paint on them.

    Just finished this as a gift for my aunt, it was really fun to paint! Question for you though, I had trouble getting my strokes as smooth as yours, the canvas was showing through (it was a primed canvas). I switched to my student grade paints hoping it would be better since they're thinner but it wasn't. Is there a trick to it?

    • @michellethepainter.
      @michellethepainter.  3 года назад

      Hi Kerri, Thank you for painting along with me and I'm sure your aunt will love this painting. For these tutorials I'm using a thin bodied student grade paint from Blick Materials called Blickrylics. They don't have the best pigment, but I like the consistency for layering and blending affects. Perhaps your brand is a little different. I sell small sample sizes of the colors I use on my website (link below) if you want to try them before you invest in the larger bottles.
      Have fun painting!
