With this Channel, I explore a variety of concepts regarding learning to draw or how to draw almost any subject, learning to paint landscapes & still lifes in acrylic paint or oil paint, and many other topics involving art, painting, technical aspects, and life.

New to the channel (2 minutes ago) and I watch a lot of youtubers like you who does drawing and things similar to that. I subscribed because I can already see what I can learn from you and I am convinced that you actually deserve more subscribers, so that people can also learn from what you say. :)

This is actually really great advice. I'm new to painting and have made three of these five mistakes, so I'll definitely use your suggestions. Thank you!

Brandon can never lose his paintbrush if it grows right out of his chin

Although these are simple tips people often forget them or don’t realize them. Thank you for the help 🙏 bc I haven’t been improving my art and now I know why

[Gilded-girl]

Hey, thanks so much! I've been painting on huge canvases and I've been thinking I need to paint smaller. I actually enjoy painting the smaller ones better anyway.

Great tips any suggestions on setting up still lifes indoors & still having enough ventilation to paint with oils? I always paint out on my porch with oils to ensure enough ventilation

Nice shot of your still life studio there at the 3m38s mark. PVC is cheap and versatile for small frames. Do you have a video on that?

Because of you, I started using smaller (5x7) canvases, it's made a big difference.

[chrislovie-tyler]

Thanks. That's great advice. I'm not far off finishing some night classes, and I'd planned, after that, to go back to painting a lot of small paintings with a set of primaries.

Glad your back.
I have not done art since November.

All the best from John.

Good tips - especially the 'paint from life' one. Lots of really good painting coaches online, but a lot of them are almost exclusively talking about painting from photos, which is very different, uses different skills (more copying than processing and interpreting) and is, imho, less interesting. So thanks!
