The way you described blending dark toward light and then light toward dark to clean it up really clicked with me. It seems like such a “duh” thing now that you’ve explained it like that. You never know what little bits of info will be an epiphany for someone. Thank you.

I love how there's always a vidio just for you with the right pacing. If it won't for you I wouldn't be able to pass art class thank you

Probably one of the most stellar how-to videos that I have seen in my 15 years on youtube!! Thank you Greg!

Greg describes the blending so easy and relaxing

Thank you for taking the time and giving directions🤓. Others have demonstrated too quickly with a “just do it” attitude. You explain how. Again, thanks😘

Absolutely mesmerizing to watch you paint so beautifully.

I’ve seen recommendation that you run a wash brush (or others) back & forth over some painter’s tape or masking tape (something around that strength) to remove some of those loose bristles, so perhaps if others are suffering from that shedding as the paint gets stickier, that will help out. I found that tip while learning how to varnish & finish paintings, so in those situations you’re often using way cheaper, shoddier (perhaps even single use, disposable dollar store quality brushes), but I’m sure the same applies very generally.

This could easily be an ASMR video. I'm incredibly relaxed, even though I have a project to finish.

Good video mate. Just started painting this year. Just playing around. I was curious about acrylics. This helps. Greetings from Scotland.

I’m transitioning from watercolors to acrylics & blending was the most difficult. Hope this will help
