Glad you are painting it's a great hobby

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.

These tips make so much sense for acrylic. I'm halfway through a piece, and I am going to start tomorrow's session with these. I can't wait. Love the tip of adding a slight tone to the gesso - its so true that when I start a painting, my eyes plays tricks on me until there is color on the whole canvas. This will be so helpful when I start my next project. Thank you so much!

So glad you mention gesso. I've seen so many good paintings spoilt by the artist not doing this and they wonder why their fine painting looks so woolly. I think ground colour you choose depends what you are painting.

Thank you so very much. I did not realize how much I was interested in painting abstract as well as other types of paintings, until I was 50 years old. I can not do the physical things outside that I enjoyed all my life. So I started pouring paint which was fun, but really wanted to do more. Now this is my relaxing technique. I have asked questions on to other artists with no response. Thank you so much for your videos and expertise!!

I discovered your channel a few months ago and find it very entertaining and very helpful. I hadn't painted for about 30 years, have lots of time now and discovered a painting class in a local Senior center and returned to my first love. I painted with oils before so this is a whole other adventure. I have learned so many things i did not know about acrylics. Such as "now how do I use water? I find your channel sooooo helpful. I read that your are English. I kept trying to discern the accent but didn' get it until I read another comment and she referred to you as UK. Thank you so much for making your class available to so many people
