Malcolm, it's a very colorful, in your style, painting. Love all your explanations, mixing colors tips, advices for specific acrilics painting. Mountains in the distance are looking vibrant but yet quiet. I have so much to learn from you. Thank you!

Thank you so much for demonstrating acrylics. That was very helpful!

Also, I would love to see a video explaining the yellows! Cadmium light, azo, lemon, etc. which are warm, which are cool, relative to each other? How does one go about choosing in a landscape? I suppose I have the same issues with the blues.

What a coincidence that you should post a video today, I've had an amazing day. My friend and I hired a very small art gallery local to us and we are at this moment in the middle of our first ever exhibition. I'm showing paintings and pottery and my friend is showing pottery too. Today I sold 3 paintings and I'm buzzing, I know I under valued them but I've covered my costs and made a profit but I'm now thinking how much I'm going to miss the paintings as they've been in my house for the past year, do you ever miss your paintings too when you sell them ? I sold pots too and we've still got all next week to go so I'm very happy. Thank you for all your help and advice, I'll keep you posted how things go the end of next week .

Acrylic painting tips ~ BRAVO! I needed this very much. I use acrylics and I use your oil tips and paintings to learn. This however cleared up some issues I’ve been having. Thank you for your lessons. Melatonin Malcom - you are very laid back which I love. ❤

As always, a spectacular job. You really have a way of giving the brushstrokes that I deeply admire. Greetings from Spain.

Stunning painting! Loved it. Great tips. I haven’t painted in acrylic, but would like to take this challenge. Thanks Malcolm for another educational video.

I have really appreciated your information on acrylics of late. Thanks so much for helping us with them!

[nydiavazquez]

Thank you Malcolm, I was also having problems creating distance. Very helpful demo, lovely painting!

[Jacksbox]

Thank you so much, Malcolm! I paint with acrylics as I'm severely allergic products associated with oils, and I like to think I can create something beautiful with them! 🙂

[angelmonette]

Hi Malcolm. Beautiful demo. Always love your explanations. Can you tell me which brand of acrylic paints did you use?

[nataliehachey]

Super demo! Thank you so much! So happy to have found you. Do you ever use zinc white? I think it is also called mixing white. I have a tube of the stuff but never use it. Again, thank you!
