  • This how I use both charcoal and acrylic paint on the same piece. I'm still occasionally trying new things and that makes the creation process fun and exciting. Also sometimes a little nerve wracking. Check it out and I hope you enjoy watching. Thanks!

    That’s one majestic looking bull there, Joel. I’m really liking your mixed medium look you’ve developed/continue to develop with your work. An artist wants to distinguish their work from others, obviously, and your style is one of the most unique. I’m a huge fan of your color palate with the earth tones, and also with the subjects you choose. Love the wildlife, especially the wolves and bison. To be honest, if I were a wealthy man I’d purchase every one of your original pieces before they were dry! But for now, please continue with these videos. It’s a pleasure to watch you create. You can tell how good someone is at their craft by how easy they make it look. It’s almost hypnotic! Lol. Thanks, Joel. Troy

    Joel, I absolutely love your work! And I so appreciate your sharing exactly how you accomplished this beautiful piece. Years ago I started my art painting in acrylic and then moved to oil. I love how you have used acrylic to pull out the highlights in a way white charcoal would not. Thank you for this! I'm definitely going to try this. You are a gem and your videos are great!

    I had a college art teacher tell me to use water with acrylic to make a wash for underpainting 30 years ago. After 30 years the science says to use a medium, I use golden airbrush medium for thinning paints to a watery-wash consistency. The reason water is shunned is that it separates the acrylic polymer and creates an unstable base for the rest of the painting, eventually, your painting may peel from the canvas. On a different note, you made me want to try charcoal on canvas. I especially liked your video on how to affix the charcoal permanently.

  • @teressacooks7928
    @teressacooks7928 Год назад +1

    I honestly thought you had painted a "one-eyed" bison until you put the cool wash over it😆, then it popped into focus. Came out great!

    Hi Joel. I am so excited to have found this video! my passion is the lushness of charcoal as well and the verserlity of acrylic. I recently completed a project using bothe these mediums but i layered it with an acrylic binder after using a fixtive on the charcoal. would love your input on this Thank you

    Lovely piece! You are very skilled, so happy to have found your channel! I use alcohol to create textures/abstraction on my initial washes, I’ve never thought about acetone. I wonder if there’s a difference or if it just evaporates faster? I’ll have to give it a try.

    Beautiful piece, looks like you could run your fingers through its fur. Came for the instructions, subbed for the quality of the work and your mellow, charming personality. Might be a weird thing to say but I feel like I'm watching Dave Bautista's baby brother create beautiful art. Checking out the rest of your vids. Hoping you have a materials vid and if not, please consider doing one.

    Again a marvelous creation with an angry bison ready for a fight. My son-in-law and I were able to hunt bison in Alaska and he was lucky enough to fill his tag with a huge bull. You really can not imagine their immense size until you put your hands on them. You have captured every wrinkle and crease in its facial expression especially the wire like hair. Great job!
