In this video I’ll show you a quick and easy way to paint 3 small landscapes in acrylics using a household cleaning sponge. Cleaning Sponges are a great way to achieve a wide variety of loose marks that can’t be achieved in any other way. This technique is great for beginners but also for experienced artists looking to loosen up and simplify their painting style.
Materials used in the video are:
Acrylic colors: Mars yellow, Bordeaux, indigo blue and Titanium white.
140 lb / 300gram watercolor paper, Cold pressed fine grain Canson watercolor paper.
small flat synthetic fiber brush
Household cleaning sponges
Water, Paper towels and palette knife.
Painting techniques shown in this video are:
1.Wet into wet painting technique - a great way to blend colors and make a soft gradual transition between two different colors - gives a nice gradual transition without using a brush. Yes you really can paint beautiful paintings without using a painting brush!
2.Dual color application - drag the sponge across the paper and press down evenly on the sponge to get a nice application of two colors of paint at the same time.
3.A layering technique which great for paintings mountains for example.
