At 84 I’m just starting and your tips were most helpful. Thanks

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.

I'm 66 and just starting, guess it's true. Never to old to learn. 🙂

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 did 3 years of fine art classes and never learnt these basic lessons when painting with acrylics. I changed to watercolours. Thank you.

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.

Extra tip: clip a laundry peg on the rim of the cup. You'll never drink paint water. Thank me later.

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.

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!

I went to a famous Art school. I have learnt more in ten minutes than in one year there.

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!!

[Pepper]

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. 😃

[teachershelasevilla]

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.

[deannabagwell]

I've been painting about 2 years now and I like to look on YouTube 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!
