As I was watching you paint this, I was imagining a silhouette of a shark. Reminds of being in the ocean and looking up at the sky from under water. Beautiful

Great imagination! That silhouette would look nice on this background. I have a shark silhouette uploaded to this channel too. The silhouette is from the perspective of the bottom of the ocean looking up towards the sun. It has two sharks circling their prey...the prey are the viewers of the painting....LOL

This is such a beautiful background, and you applied the paints so perfectly! You're very talented! I tried this technique last night, and I have to admit, it provided me with the dark to light contrast that I was looking for (going towards the center), but for some reason I couldn't get the brush strokes to stand out the way you did. Perhaps I should have added a bit more water. I love how the retardant makes the paint shine when it goes on, too. I was almost hoping it would stay like that. It was a fun technique to use, and Lord knows... if everything turned out perfectly the first time, we'd be making the video instead of you, hahaha!. I think this will be my "go-to" background for any future paintings that don't have a specific background. As I said, it's beautiful, and actually fun to do. Thank you so much for sharing this video! New subscriber here. BTW, has anyone ever told you your voice is wonderfully soothing? Thanks again!

I suspect that canvas paper would easily bend and buckle while drying. Would not a gessoed wood board be a better option?

@StudioSilverCreek 8 жыл бұрын

It buckles slightly when it is wet but naturally flattens itself out when drying. The paper was made for painting. A stretched canvas would be my next choice. I actually repainted this on a bigger (12" x 24" canvas). The dimensions of the new painting changed, the trees are much taller. I like it just the same. Thanks for watching Em. :)

Thats a beautiful piece keep it up👏❤️ i was wondering if i wanted to use oil paint do i follow the same technique but instead of a retarder a thinning medium? Thank you 😊

@Horsewoman-pt2ku 7 жыл бұрын

Would Goldens matt medium be used and give the translucent look and extend drying time? Also, what type of synthetic hairs would be best for acrylic painting? (gold taklon, etc) thanks. very much enjoy your painting tutorials
