1. Use gesso
2. Put a ground color on the painting before the gesso dries (to help you get a sense of color vs. pure white)
3. Spray water on the opposite side to keep paint from coming through and evaporating
4. Use two different containers of water. One for washing your brush, one for thinning down your paint. Don't use too much water, just slightly dip then rub it on the rim of the lid afterwards, that'll be enough.
5. Wet your palette to stop evaporation.
At 84 I’m just starting and your tips were most helpful. Thanks
Glad you are painting it's a great hobby
Extra tip: clip a laundry peg on the rim of the cup. You'll never drink paint water. Thank me later.
Gesso. I am self taught painter. Tips like this helped heaps I NEEDED THAT so much.
I didnt realise that's why i was eating through my paint. The canvas was absorbing it.
I'm 66 and just starting, guess it's true. Never to old to learn. 🙂
In less than twelve minutes you have taught me more about acrylic painting preparation than all the painting videos from others put together. I am now a subscriber! Thank you so much.
Thank you for your support
I'm 55 yrs. Guess I' m not too old to start. There's something calling me and these tips are invaluable. Thanks
Thank you 😊 go for it
I did 3 years of fine art classes and never learnt these basic lessons when painting with acrylics. I changed to watercolours. Thank you.
Thank you so much
I'm a self-taught acrylic painter, I started doing the painting while furloughed during the quarantine. Your tips have helped me a great deal. I've even sold a few paintings as well as being commissioned to do one. Thank you for your tips.
Loved , I need this tips. I just start do my painting. It’s my therapy, us I going true my cancer battle.
Had I had an art teacher like you in 9th grade I would have learned something and I wouldn't be 65 and trying to find my inner artist! Thank you for being so thorough in your explanations and giving us great visual examples. I am finding this all a lot less intimidating because of your excellent teaching style!
That’s is so kind thank you I’m glad I have inspired you
Oh I so agree
Jackie Gfeller great Help! Thank you so much!
Jackie Gfeller Is never too late!!!❤
Yes man exactly right , he is a brilliant teacher am 32 I always loved painting all types and wished I had a decent art teacher growing up. But there is definitely no shame and it's never too late 🌿🌼💛
Imagine living most of your life and then finding a clever friendly always available teacher! Thank you...
Thank you so much
Well that was possibly the most useful, relevant, concise, non pretentious, easy to follow set of tips I've seen. I love your warm and friendly delivery. Thank you, that's me subscribed! Diolch!
So very kind
You didn't hide anything. Gave the fullest. Thank you so much.
WHAT???? I have never heard of any of these except for pre-painting with gesso. How much easier this is all gonna be. Thank you for sharing this. 😃
I'm a young artist, trying to sell my own art, and have just decided I didn't know near enough about painting, something I love doing! These tips were SO helpful, and I genuinly feel like you were just giving advice and trying to spread your knowledge!! Thank you for the advice, I didn't even know what gesso was for before now!!
Keep painting it's not so much about how good we are it's more about the fun we have learning no matter what your skill you can always sell your work
I agree with JG. I am just starting out at 68 years old. I have always been crafty but I'm going to try my hand at painting. Thank you so much for the great preparation tips. I'm excited to get started.
Thank you so much for your support
I am 55 and just starting too.
Go for it. You got this!
62 and just getting ready to start out. :) Thank you so much for the tips!
Brilliant no fuss and clear delivery!
These tutorials are terrific Clive. I'm in my 70s and just restarting in painting...there's tips on here that we were never taught at art college..brilliant. Thanks.
I just did my first acrylic painting yesterday with the set I got for Christmas. It made me want to improve everything and this video just gave me so many helpful tips. I just starting painting a year ago with oils but I’d never tried acrylics. I’m eager to learn some new techniques. Thanks so much for the lesson. I look forward to more.
Your welcome thank you 😊
Loving the tip of wetting the back of the canvas. Was driving me crazy when paint was drying into the canvas so quickly. This has made painting so much easier. Many Thanks x
Thank you so much 😊
I absolutely could watch and listen to you all day!!! I started painting at the age of 6 ,my mom is Italian and nearly all of them are artists...but I was all self taught because I refused to listen to them and a bit rebellious...and I'm kicking myself for not soaking up all those years of experience they could have offered...lol...but I found my niche,and I'm loving FB tutorials, yours most of all!!! Thanks again for the great tips!!!!
We all must find our own way as long as your happy that’s all that counts I’m happy you enjoy painting
I went to a famous Art school. I have learnt more in ten minutes than in one year there.
That is so kind thank you
I adore how you explained these tips very precisely!
I'm a beginner to painting and I'll definitely apply all of these. Thanks a lot.
Thank you for your support
As I was just about to try an acrylic painting, I forgot all the “rules”, but watching your MOST HELPFUL video answered all my questions! A huge THANK YOU!!
Great tips wish I knew this twenty-five paintings ago LOL
Never too late to learn things to help that's for sure
I paint as a hobby and clicked this out of curiosity, helped SO much! Thank you! Made painting so much easier.
I must say sir, your ascent is a breath of fresh air. I'm a young novice artist from the Rhondda and finally finding someone I can learn from that is easier to follow and understand is amazing. I moved to Australia 7 years ago and I really miss the old welsh rock. Keep up the amazing work!
I just retired an am in a funk. You brightened my day!! I have always wanted to learn how to paint but had no idea where to begin. You have helped me so much. Thanks!!
Awesome! I'm 60 years old, and though I've always been artistic, painting is the one thing that scares me! But, I want to learn SO BADLY, so I'm watching, watching, WATCHING video after video learning as I go, ordering what I need. THIS is awesome I've watched it twice now, I've subscribed.
I don't know if I have any talent for painting or not, but I'm gonna find out! THANK YOU for sharing all your knowledge. ❤️😊
you are the real TEACHER! Thank you very much!
Thank you that’s so kind
Every now and then you find an artist that’s not afraid to share.
You by far are an artists angel! Thank you for your generous tips.
Thanks
I've never had an art lesson in my life but gee . . . I learned alot here. Thank you
Thank you so much
I've been painting about 2 years now and I like to look on RUclips to see what new things I can learn. Most are so convoluted I don't take away much or they're too long. This was perfect, concise and clear. Thank you for these tips. I will now be using these going forward!
These tips make so much sense for acrylic. I'm halfway through a piece, and I am going to start tomorrow's session with these. I can't wait. Love the tip of adding a slight tone to the gesso - its so true that when I start a painting, my eyes plays tricks on me until there is color on the whole canvas. This will be so helpful when I start my next project. Thank you so much!
Thank you for your support
I think this was the most useful set of tips I have ever received regarding acrylic paints in such a short time. They really helped a lot.
Thank you
So glad you mention gesso. I've seen so many good paintings spoilt by the artist not doing this and they wonder why their fine painting looks so woolly. I think ground colour you choose depends what you are painting.
Thank you so much for these tips. I went to a paint party and we were instructed to paint straight into the canvas. I wasn't happy with the results and have wanted to find better ways of painting. I'm so glad I found you.
They teach only their way I allow you to do what you want with guidance
Wow 62 and sitting in front of my first canvas in 50 years. I knew none of this and am so gladi clicked on you first. :) gutted I have more preparing b4 I begin. Thank you so much.
this is type of teachers we need i have watched tons and i mean tons of videos and i have never heard of these tips . This guy is amazing i have been having a hard time with acrylics . i learned more from this video than in all the useless pretentious videos i have been watching
Your so kind thank you
Thank you so much. I am 71 and still working cleaning churches. Trying to learn to paint.
Clive, I am COMPLETELY smitten! Thanks for the straightforward tutorial!
Thank you so much
You're the best! I find myself coming back to your channel every time I begin a new art project to help re-organize and facilitate my creative process. Thank you for passing down your wealth of expertise onto so many aspiring artists. You are truly appreciated.
So happy to help
Thanks for the tips boyo. This 81 yr old novice appreciates your help and also appreciates the Welsh Griffin in the background and your Welsh accent, not yet rubbed off by the telly. My parents were both born and raised in S. Wales and I was born in London, lived in Pontypool, Monmouthshire for a year at age 11. I plan to watch all of your videos. Great advice. Cheerio.
Dave
Thank you for that I am 80 years old and love to learn new ways that help my painting!!.
Thank You! Such great tips. Will be trying them out this evening when pick up brushes. Wishing you a beautiful day!
Thank you Clive! I've started painting again after not for 40 years. Your tips are so easy to follow and I look forward to trying them!
You are the best, for u go slow enough for us to comprehend what's happening to our project!
I really enjoy your tutorial! All of them
Been painting for 10-years, BUT I have learned so much more from you. Thank you....n don't go away...
Thank you so very much. I did not realize how much I was interested in painting abstract as well as other types of paintings, until I was 50 years old. I can not do the physical things outside that I enjoyed all my life. So I started pouring paint which was fun, but really wanted to do more. Now this is my relaxing technique. I have asked questions on to other artists with no response. Thank you so much for your videos and expertise!!
Thank you most helpful and must needed tips for beginners 🙏🙏
I am 68 also just into painting ,
I am learning a lot at the age of 70. I feel I'll certainly benefit from your initial instructions. Thanks for the valuable tips given by you. I saw a lot of videos of other painters but no one guided the amateurs like you. Thanks a lot sir. Sarita sharan
Thanks for these simple but most useful painting tips, yes, I will use these tips,,
I'm 72 and accidentally started painting and thoroughly enjoy it. Your tips are the best I've come across. Thank you
I like your no nonsense delivery. Thank you.
I discovered your channel a few months ago and find it very entertaining and very helpful. I hadn't painted for about 30 years, have lots of time now and discovered a painting class in a local Senior center and returned to my first love. I painted with oils before so this is a whole other adventure. I have learned so many things i did not know about acrylics. Such as "now how do I use water? I find your channel sooooo helpful. I read that your are English. I kept trying to discern the accent but didn' get it until I read another comment and she referred to you as UK. Thank you so much for making your class available to so many people
Clive a very clear explanation about these tips. I have learned a lot from you in recent years. Continue with giving instruction. You are much more interested in details and technology than other painters on the internet. Thank you for the past years and keep it up. For me, you are the best. Love from Holland, village Venray.
Thank you yes I love the science behind things how to manipulate things to my advantage so I try to share what’s taken me years to achieve to make it easier for others just to paint

Thank you very very very mach. A Wonderful tips. God bless you.
BRILLIANT THANKYOU..best art lesson I’ve ever had...👏👏👏🌹🙋♀️
Thank you, this is so helpful! I was going to paint on Terracotta pots with acrylics. I am now going to wet them before I start.
Just starting with acrylics so this was really helpful advice for a novice, thank you!
Newbie beginner here. Thank you so much for your videos. Your instruction is perfect. Not just what or not what to do, but why. Understanding why helps me to be less afraid. Like I’m in control. When I’m actually not. LOL. I haven’t even started on my first canvas yet. But now I feel like I can. Happy painting!
I loved your tips. Thank you. I am confused about the last one. I can not wait to put your tips to work for me.
Top man Clive the welsh are the best 🏴 top artist and excellent tips
Fascinated by your preparation of the canvas. I'm anxious to begin again after learning your 5 tips. Thank you.
Oh my gosh. We've been FB friends for a bit and I never knew you were doing instruction on You Tube. I found this video by accident. Boy am I glad. Thanks so much Clive.
Thank you dawn
Thank you so much. I feel as if I'm learning how to paint for the first time! There's always something new to learn!
Thank you
I wish I found this video before I started painting. Lesson learned. Thank you.
I am over 70 and just beginning! I never knew what I missed! I am not good but enjoying myself immensely! Good day and thanks!
Thanks for your support
Thank you Clive, excellent tips! I too am beginning to paint at 68 and loving every minute. Cheers
So happy your enjoying the painting
That was a very precious help for beginners. I googled so much to find out about gesso and preparation for painting and here it is all in one practical video..... I was near to give up because I noticed that the results were just lacking technical knowledge. Wow thank you so much.
Thank you Mr. Clive, this helps so much. I am learning every day and truly grateful for your shared wisdom.
I just went to Hobby lobby here in the states and bought me some gesso for the first time. I am getting back into acrylic. I am not as profecient as you are but I am hoping to get there. I am 44 so I have a few years left of life to get good at painting lol. Great tips for a beginner like me.
I'm a just retired banker who always had to live in the workaday world with a stifled passion for painting...
Now I'm fully into painting in the best way. I spend almost the whole day with my paints, ink & pen, charcoal pencils et Al...
I was thrilled to hear your tips & I feel that your advice could take me a long way to achieving what has been my innermost ambition.
I have subscribed to your utube videos & look forward to hearing/seeing more of your work...
Thanks for your advice.
Thank you for your support and please just type in #clive5art in the search bar for all my lessons
You have a great way of explaining and I really appreciated your tips and demonstration of how to apply them. I was always curious as to how to keep the paint more pliable for a longer time. Thank you.
Omg, I've never primed my canvases, that's why when I bought them they looked so rough and not so smooth. This explains why they're so cheap! Thank you very much! I'm going to see how to make the gesso :) thank you very very much! Extremely helpful!
Getting back into painting. Thank you. My first teacher was priceless. And you reminded me of her simple and awesome tips.
Wish I had taken notes. Yes.!!! Spray bottle.
I am 59 and have just come into my creative juices!!! My first Sketch with charcoal pencils was in December 2017 in Kona HI while I was in a midwifery program. I am entering it in the Tulsa Art competition, as I have been encouraged to do so. It does NOT look like a first time sketch. Now I am working with acrylics and oil sticks. I am so excited to see that I have creativity within and am eager to see where this goes!!! thank you Clive 5 for your excellent tips!!!
Wish you all the best keep up the good work thanks Clive
It was a very helpful video. God bless you.
Thank you so much, just going to start painting with acrylic.
Great have fun
Gesso is perhaps the most important step. I am a painter who went to art school and they didn't teach me this very important step. Then I wondered why I was using up my expensive paints so quickly. ALWAYS PRIME YOUR SURFACE BEFORE PAINTING. It is life changing.
Something else I have been doing with my canvases lately is sanding them down a bit. I bought some cheap sandpaper (120 grit-2000 grit) and sanded my canvas before painting on it. I haven't painted on the canvas yet, but as I was applying gesso to the canvas, I realized it was a very smooth application. I've also heard it makes blending easier and it just looks better since store bought canvases tend to have a lot of texture on them (which is good for some paintings, but not all).
Great tips and reminders! Thank you!
Thanks for sharing the useful tips.
A pleasant day to all. Appreciated so much! Im also a beginner and young granny... i really like it so much... now i much more inspired to go on ...on my painting of nothing ... i like landscape! This pandemic can take now in easy ways. Thank you sir ... more tips please.
New to all this. Watched a few video's and this was EXTREMELY helpful!! Simple. well shown and ever better it was well explained in good detail.
So kind thank you
What great tips! You'll make my painting so much easier. Thanks for helping us.
I switched to oils about 8 years ago and have just started back on acrylics. These are all great tips! I'd heard of wetting the back of the canvas if it gets dented but never just as a general practice. Mixing colour into the last layer of gesso was new to me too. Most excited to try that wet palette though, I always thought it was just for saving paint between sessions. Thank you for making this!!
Wonderful information for a senior citizen who has been hobby painting for 30+ years. Thank you very much.
Your so welcome
So so simple ! And I had no idea, will come in very useful.
I’ve been painting for years, and apart from laying out my paints the same way, I’ve never heard of any of the others! I always mix a good couple of palette knives full of water with each paint, as they’re too dry to work with otherwise! I’ll definitely be trying your damp palette trick! Thanks for the info!
Thank you glad they have helped
Phenomenal teachings as always
Thank you so much for your five tips for painting with acrylic colour
I love your accent! I could listen to you all day long. Thank you for the wonderful tips!
I always learn something new when I watch your videos
Very practical suggestions sir
Thank You for this!! I'm learning this art on my own right now, and am always searching for instructors I can understand. You are a very good instructor. I look forward to seeing more of your videos.
Thank you for your support
These are fantastic tips. I especially appreciate the gesso and adding the background while its still wet. Thank you!
Thank you for taking the time to share your technique and tips. Every artist has their own trademark style, but we are all benefiting from each other by sharing our talents.
So kind thank you
My father as just passed away and was a fantastic artist so I want to put his stuff to use and learn to paint my self so I can use his equipment and always have something to remember him by , thankyou for your easy to understand videos I have just subscribed.
Thank you for the info, finally someone cares and very helpful.
